CHICAGO, July 2S.-Assertions that black

The rise here in the cost of wheat, though
stiff did not more than half equal the
added charges imposed at centers much
nearer to the afflicted region. Minneapolis,
for example, put the price level up an

ENTIRE FAMILY IS POISONED
Husband is Dead and Wife and
Child.in Critical Condition

The body of Andrew Logan was
taken into Sturgis Wednesday af.
ternoon from the Logan ranch.
about forty miles below Belle
Fourche river. Logan died Monday
night from ptomaine poisoning
and his wife and two year old child
barely alive as a result of the same
poisoning. Logan and his wife
and baby had eaten hearty sup
per Monday night and had retired
when the baby began coughing
and the husband got up to light
the lamp. AS he started to cross
the floor he fell into fit of con-
vulsions. His wife started to
where he was and was as quickly
stricken herself, falling PROSTATE
across his body. The two lay
helpless in this condition through
out the night and we'll into the
following day. wien a neighbor
stopped at the house by mere
chance and discovered them The
husband had been dead for some
time and the wife showed but the
faintest signs of life and was in
comatose condition. The baby,
still lying on the bed, was also
stricken in a like manner to that
of the parents and was barely alive.
BY heroic work the mother and
baby were revived and stand a
chance to recover, everything
possible being done for them by
other neighbors who have come in
since the news has spread.
The theory is that the family
were poisoned from can of tom
atoes.
Logan was man about thirty J
five years old. The family were
new homestesders, having moved
into the section only about year
ago and located in the immediate
vicinity of George Price and
George Minard, old residents on
the Belle Fourche.

Wreck at Nowiin

The regular freight train which
usually arrives in Philip from the
| east at about noon. was wrecked
at Nowlin Wednesday and two en-
gines and several box cars were
derailed and considerable damage
done. The train, which was a dou-
bic header, pulled into Nowlin at
the rate of twelve miles an hour
and section hand threw a switch
to allow the west bound train to
come in On a siding and pass the
freight bound eastward. A mistake
was made in throwing the wrong
switch and the heavily loaded
freight swung in on the wrong sid
ing and crashed into three water
cars, splintering and derailing them
and piling up the two engines and
one box car. The engineers and
tiremen escaped serious injury by
jumping and the only injured
member of the crew was brakeman
Potts, which is not considered SER
ious. The wreck occurring on the
siding left the main line practically
clear and the afternoon passenger
was delayed only few minutes.
The wrecking crew left Pierre at
five O'Clock Wednesday evening
and are now busy cleaning up the
wreckage. Conductor p. Pangle
was in charge of the wrecked
train.

in Harding county, and there are
other rumors of line connecting
their terminus at Rapid City, with
their northern line across the state,
but there is nothing definite on
these points.
Last fall a local company at
Chamberlain made a survey from
that place to Huron. 1t was
claimed at the time they we're
doing preliminary work for the
Great Northern road. But now
comes an eastern company offering
to put in an electrical line on the
route of their survey in case the
people along the line will take
stock to the amount of 100000.
Reports from along the line indi-
cate that the local promoters of
the line are feeling out the senti-
ment of the people on such plan.
The electric people have also
been busy in the eastern part of
the state for several weeks, and
number of projects are under way
on paper, out of which there may
be something in the way of activity
before the close of the railway
season for 1911.
But on the whole the outlook is
not one for any great railway
activity in the state on the part of
the old established companies, un-
less it is in the way of the line be-
tween Pierre and Aberdeen by
the Minneapolis AMI St Louis
people.

PROPOSED RAILROAD BUILDING
Railroad Extension is Now the
Order of the Day in the State

With the coming of spring, the
railroad talk for South Dakota is
again coming to the front as a
topic of discussion. Whether
there will be any great amount of
real railroad building for this year
has not yet developed, but very
little which can be called definite
information has shown up so far as
the older roads of the state are
concerned. The Northwestern is
showing indications of extension
of its line east from Newell, which
is at present the terminus of it's
line from Belle Fourche out into
the gov ernment irrigation district.
Over a year ago they filed with
the secretary of state a plat of
proposed line out as far as Red
Owl, and they include this pro-
posed extension in their data
which they furnished the railroad
commission for the latest railway
map put out.
The same system may extend its
Balls line beyond Winner this
year, up into western Tripp county
to near the corner of Bennett
county, to which point they have
also filed plats of proposed future
extension work. but it is not on
the cards that they will do any
any more this year if they do that
much. In fact SO far as can be
learned, that company has nothing
material on its list for South
Dakota for another year at least.
1t is pretty generally believed
that the Minneapolis and St. Louis
will build its line from Aberdeen
to Pierre this year, along the line
Iof the old grade on which they
have an option.
Whether the Milwaukee" line
will do ANYTHING west of the river
this year is all in the way of ru-
NOR. 1t is claimed that thev have
a surveying corps in the north
western part of the state, working

are getting it in the neck. A doz.
en- years ago we took possession OF
the Philippine Islands by conquest
and paid them S2O, ,OOO,O 900 to show

to us without paying anything.
Since that time we have spent mil
lions of dollars establishing a bunch
Of carpet-rag spectators in busi-

millions come out of the pockets
of the American taxpayer without
a protest from this anti-reciprocity
crowd. But when we try to make a
Square deal with Canada without
paying a dollar on shedding a drop

defeat any measure that will reduce

St. Patrick's Day in the Morning

Tomorrow will be St. Patrick's s
and the sons and daughters of the
I.Emeral Isle will celebrate the birth
of their patron saint by "the wear
ing of the green" and adorning
their breasts with the dear little
shamrock, the emblem of their
native land, the old sod.
Ireland in the past and present
has furnished her quote of histor-
ians, poets, statesmen, military
and navel heroes. Wellington the
hero of Waterloo was an Irishman,
Admiral Nelson, the hero of TrafaI-
gar, was of Irish parents. In the
Crimea war, rivers of blood was
shed at Sebastapool, Ballyclava,
Inkerman, and the Little Redan,
where the Connaught Rangers,
the Inis Killian dragons, the Roy
al Irish, and several other Irish
regiments showed their Irish grit
in defeating the Russian troops
that outnumbered them ten to one.
1t is unnecessary to record the
deeds of valor displayed by our
Irish regiments and the officers
during our Civil war. They were
quick to respond to the call of
honest Abe in defense of the
glorious stars and stripes. They
fought, bled and died, that the
Union might live. Many of them
came home invalids, broken down
in health and wounded. am
sorry to relate many of those old
boys that wore the blue and are
now inmates of our old soldiers
homes, are treated more like dogs
than any other battle scared vet
Grams, by a few officials that were
appointed to take care of them in
their declining days. The above
remarks are applicable to the
American and German soldiers
that participated in our Civil war.
The hospitality of the government
to the down trodden sons of Erin
half . century ago. will be remem-
bered by every citizen that has q
