way. pastor of the Third Presbyterian
Church. at a meeting of the police and
fire commissioners about the state
ment he was reported to have made
about graft in city departments.
II wish to state" said Mayor Nc
Bride, that I defy any individual in
this city to produce the slightest proof
that any person connected with the
city government has ever received one
penny for an appointment to any posi-
ton in the city government. | defy
you, Mr.. Galloway, or any other eiti-
zen of this city, to show where there
is graft in the city government; you,
who, as a minister of the gospel, are
supposed to lead people in the right
way, should not besmirch gentlemen
may be you betters. They
at least are your equal and I sin
cerely hope and trust that your min
isterial duties will not prevent you
from d~ivulging those names so we may
once and for all clear up he charges
against the characters of these men
who are trying to do their full duty.
Il kindly ask you to reconsider your
determination not to divulge the names
because the social relations of one per-
son may be harmed. 1t is not fair for
you to come here and evade the ques-
lions. ! hope you. as a gentleman, will
be fair and help clear. up this base

Mayor Renews Appeal.

II again appeal to his sense of de"
cency, his manhood and his ministerial
calling to forget the individual and re-
mind him of the 1875, 900 other persons
that he is injuring by his statements.
I appeal to him as a friend, as L have
been to every nan who has been up
right and decent. | ask this board to
adjourn this meeting until tomorrow
night, or Friday afternoon, or Friday
night and give him a chance to recon-
slider 1t. 1 believe that when he has q
chance to consider his action he win
look upon this matter in a different
light and he will tell the name of his
informant and clear up once and for all
these rumors of graft"
The commissioners adjourned until 3
O'Clock tomorrow afternoon, when they
will await a reply from Mr.. Galloway.

Test Seed Corn

A. J. Wimple, the Lincoln county
corn expert says: II haye rarely been
able to save seed corn in such a way
that it would grow 100 per cent strong.
Last year picked my seed corn in
September, hung it up three weeks in
the crib to dry and then put in in racks
in an upper room in the house. 1t
seemed to be absolutely dried out
before being stored and it has never
been frozen but in spite of all care it
only terminates about 90 per cent. :"
If an expert saving his seed with such
care can only get go per cent germin-
alton what is likely to be the results by
the ordinary haphazzard method? A
lot of farmers are going to be fooled
again this spring and will lose lot of
their seasons labor because they were
careless or Indifferent about their seed.

he is going ahead under the old law, in

game birds for the state, and is sending
out notices over the state that he will
provide parties who will agree to care
for and protect the birds until they
have had chance to propagate them
selves, pairs of Chinese golden pleas

look after such birds until they have
become numerous enough to place them
in the list of game birds of tee state,
can be supplied by notifying the state

To Stop Cattle Rustling

Driven almost 10 deportation by the
frequent theft of horses and cattle
during the past few months, nearly $50
of the ranchers of Fall River and
Custer counties have called a meeting
for the purpose of organizidg an anti
horse and cattle stealing association.
The meeting will be held at Buffalo
Gap on Saturday of this week. The
purpose of the organization will be to
give to each member all the assistance
possible in the recovery of their stock
that may be stolen in future and in
running down and prosecuting the
thieves. Money will be contributed by
the members to fund and standing
cash rewards will be offered for the
arrest of those guilty of stealing stock,
and the county authorities will be given
such assistance as may be necessary
in prosecuting the case against the
accused to successful conclusion. In
addition the association will encourage
the peace officers of the two counties
to suppress all illegal handling OF stock
throughout the two counties. The new
association will also cooperate with
similar associations that have been or
may be organized in South Dakota and
adjacent territory in eastern Wyoming
and northwestern Nebraska. The
association, when it is fully organized,
will leave no stone unturned to land in
the penitentiary all cattle and horse
''rustlers" who attempt to operate in
the two counties, and those who sympa-
thize with the 'rustlers" and have
been accustomed to give them assis-
lance on the quiet will be driven from
the county, and where the evidence is
sufficient they will be prosecuted as
accomplices of the "rustlers. 1t is
planned to make the new association
one of the most effective of it's kind
ever organized in the northwest.

A Narrow Escape

Rev. Numedahl, of Moe, had a mar
row escape from death in Canton last
Thursday. He had been in attendance
at the Augustana meeting and while
driving over the fifth street crossing of
the c. M. & st. P. Ry., his team and
buggy was struck by the south bound
passenger just pulling into the city.
He did not notice the train as the cur
tains of the carriage were up until it
was nearly upon him, when the team
turned down the track. The engine
struck the off horse, thus whirling the
buggy against the side Of the engine.
Rev. Numendahl was carried in the
wrecked buggy for about two rods and
thrown quite a distance. One horse
was killed and the buggy badly
demolished. Rev. Numendahl was
quite seriously injured by being bruised
and sprained and it is thought that the
only bones broken was one of his ribs.
He was Immediately taken by the train
crew to the office of DIR. Wendt, the
company surgeon, where he was kept
until evening, when he was taken to
his home in an auto. 1t is thought that
he will not sustain permanent injuries.
His escape from death seems marvellous
and he can congratulate himself that
he is still in the land of the living.

years of 1907-S-9 and 10, which sum has

grounds. The press of the state is
praised for the help which has always
been extended toward the building up

and the provisions made by the last
legislative session have put the asso-
citation in shape to further increase
their buildings and grounds, and put
the association on better basis for
handling exhibits.
