STANLEY COUNTY
BOOSTERS MEETING

Fort Pierre, Stock Growers News:
About two months ago a meeting of
the Fort Pierre Business Men was
held at the court house in this city
and it was decided to give a banquet,
TO which delegates from all parts of
the county were to be invited. The
banquet was held and as result of
that meeting thousands of acres in
Stanley county will be placed under
irrigation. The talks at that gather
ing and the trip tothe Miliet-Sumner-
Mcpherson tract showing the people
what can be accomplished and visit
ors went home imbued with courage
and determination to make this coun-
tg one of the best in the state.
1t was resolved at the above gath
ering to effect county organization
which would have for its object the
promotion of any scheme which will
tend to the development of Stanley
county. Consequently meeting was
called at Kadoka during the fair and
large number of people were pres
ent and much profit was derived by
this getting together and talking
things over. "In Union there is
strength" 1t was decided that if the
people of this county would unite and
work In harmony they could accom-
plish much and steps were taken to
perfect a permanent organization
along this line.
The third meeting was held at Mid.
land, Oct. 25th, and despite the bao
weather some thirty farmers and bus
mess men were present, and the or
ganization of the. Stanley County De
velopment League was perfected

The building Of dams and the conser-
most interest to the majority of those
present and it was felt that if the
whole county could be brought under
one organization with auxiliary organ
izations in each township there would
be no task too great to be undertaken.
II it is desired to have the county
take up the work of dam building an
organization of this kind would be OF
inestimable value, as it would have
the backing of the entire county and
what the majority of citizens demand
would have to be granted. Much good
was accomplished at the Midland
meeting and another meeting was
called for the nth of November at
Philip.
II is desired that delegations from
all parts of the county be present at
this meeting and that it be made the
greatest gathering of citizens ever
held in Stanley county. There are
propositions to be talked over which
are of interestt to the people all over
the county and III is desired to find
out whether or not the majority are
in favor of voting a county tax for
the construction OF dams. Hold town
ship meetings and talk things over
then send someone to philip to rep-
resent you. If the county papers will
let the object Of this m Getting be known
and urge their readers to act they
will be doing the greatest thing they
ever aid Cor the county. Let it be
known that Stanley is live one.

COURTS MUST
DECIDE POINT

Sioux Falls ARGUS Leader-Can
man be convicted of the charge of
hunting without license if he is
found in the field with q gun and
without a license even if he has not
shot at a single bird? That is APPOINT
that the courts of the state will have
TO settle in the near future. Joe Kirby
of this city on a recent trip to Hamlin
county spent day with a party of
Sioux Falls friends who were in camp
near Hayti. 1t is true that Joe bor-
rowed gun from one of the party
and went into the field without having
procured license to hunt. But it is
claimed that there were no birds fly
ing on this special day and that Joe
never discharged the gun single
time. The Watertown Public Opin-
ion has the following in this connec-
ton:
Attorney Joe Kirby of~SioeX Falls,
the nemesis of the game department
of South Dakota, is again under ar
rest and charged -eith r. violation of
the game laws. Once before Joe de-
fed the game law sand won out on a
technical point Of law in Minnehaha
county.
"Mr. Kirby was arrested yesterday
just nfter he had heard the verdict
iu uersoual injury diamage case
wEicn he was defending for the'South
DakoJa Central He had plann'ed to
go home, but tho new case detained
him.
"The allegation of the state is that
Kirby was hunting in Hariiin4county
without license. lt'is believed that
the lawyer will not refute the fact as
charged, but will base hrs defense as
he did in the former case, upon the
inadequacy of the game law"

IMPROVING TIE
HIGHWAYS

Chamberlain, Nov. 6.-The move
ment for the improvement of public
highways, which has been taken up by
one or two commercial clubs in South
Dakota, thus far has resulted very
successfully and the results have been
very satisfactory, with the prospect
that other commercial clubs will en-
bark in the movement. One of the
first commercial clubs in the state to
take up this WORK was that at Red
field, where a mile of sample road has
just been completed under the direc-
tion of government expert named
Marshall. Two months usually are
required;in completing mile of sam
pie road, but in the case of the work
in the vicinity of Redfield, only two
weeks time was required. THE rapid
work on this stretch of highway is
due to the favorable natural condi-
tions in the vicinity of Redfeld which
are conductive to good road making.
The Girt was in good condition, there
were no bad grades, there was little
difficulty from rocks and the question
of drainage was easily solved. Sur
plus dirt on the knobs has been grad
ed down and placed in the low stret.
ches, with the result that the grade is
reduced and the rise-sno fall is grad
ual. Masonry abuttments are placed
under the culverts, which holds them
and the grade in place aud prevent
stoppaye of the conduit. The drain
age has been figured out scientifically
and all the moisture will be carried
off in the quickest routes and with
the least possible wear end tear or
the mile of modelhighway. Theroat
itself is built MP carefully and will
precision and is durably crowned.
A secret of the durability of Mr.
Marshall's road is the constant har
rowing that he does. Twice as muCl
of this is done as is usually consider
led necessary, with the result that tht
material sta! 8 where ltls pat and pre-
sents hard, unyielding surface
This mile of sample road will be har
rowed and smoothed again next sprinl
after the frost is out of the ground
and viii then be considered entirel,
finished and fit to last for'any numbe
of years. With this start, the worl
of good roads building will be pushe'
in other directions in the vicinity o
Redfleld under the direction of tn
commercial club of shat city, and j
Ia assured that similar work will b
undertaken by the commercial club
of other cities in the state. In TIN
vicinity of Brookings considerable o
this work also has been done.

Sunday morning at six
o'clock the time used by the
railroad company was chang
ed from mountain to central
time, necessitating the turn
ing Of clocks an hour ahead.
The change Of time hereto
fore has been made at Cham
berlain and the trains on this
division were run on mount
ain time but when the dis
patchers Office was moved
from Murdo to Mitchell the
change in time was made and
does away with a great
chance Of making a costly
mistake in the dispatching
trains under two dilferept
times. The change in time
is quite an Improvement over
the old time used, and now
gives us an entire working
day Of light during the win
ter instead Of being cOmpell-
ed to quit at five o'clock on
account of darkness. Tues
day morning the schools a.
dopted the new time, which
means that school takes Up

earlier.
