CREATED PUBLICITY
vessey Says Eastern Trip Ha'
Done West Q Lot of Good

The Governors Special" trair
which made q tour of the east,
met with a most enthusiastic re-
ception wherever it stopped and
the advertising given the west
ern states will doubtless stimulate
emigration from the east.
Governor vessey, in speaking
Of the trip, said:
s'The trip of the western gov
ernors' special train received far
greater recognition than I an
ticipated. l had anticipated an
enjoyable trip but had no idea
of the receptions and publicity TO:
the west that this trip would
create. Every city seemingly
has We'd with each other to ex-
tend to the governors, the great
est = possible consideration. I
believe the result of the trip will
be the means Of creating a more
thorough understanding between
the east and the west than we
now have. The publicity this trip
has given to the west is Of i'm
mense value and cannot fail to
help greatly in the further de-
velopment of the larger un-
developed country"

FORT PIERRE WOMAN II

Mrs. Sam Talkington Of Fort
Pierre was badly burned in q
peculiar explosion at her home
last night. She went into an en-
PITY room about six O'Clock in
the evening and struck q match,
when an explosion followed which
threw her into the hall, and jar
red the window glass out in some
places, and generally knocked the
contents of the room about. Mrs.
Talkington was quite severely
burned, but it is thought not
dangerously. She has many
friends in Pierre who will hope
for her speedy recovery. It is
supposed that q leaking gas pipe
had caused the gas in the room
to accumulate which ignited
when the light was ck.-Tues

HYDE SENTENCED
Eighteen Months in Prison and
Fifteen Hundred Dollars
From Which Appeal
Will Be Taken

Sioux Falls, S. d., Dec. %
Sentence day in the United
States court found a number OF
defendants, who either had enter
ed pleas of guilty or had been
convicted by juries, facing Judge
Elliott.
The greatest interest was in the
case of Charles l.. Hyde, a veal
thy real estate dealer of Pierre,
who was convicted on three
counts of an indictment charg-
ing him with using the mails to
defraud in connection with his
real estate business.
The sentence Of one year and
three months Imprisonment and a
fine of $500 and costs on each of
the three counts, is one Of the
heaviest imposed in the federal
court for some time. The i'm
prisonment periods are to run con
currently, meaning that if Mr..
Hyde is taken to the federal peni,
tentiary at Leavenworth, Kan,
he will be requested to serve one
year and three months, while
the aggregate fine amounts to
$500 and costs.
His attorneys gave notice OF
appeal from the sentence Of the
court, and this will act as a stay
of judgement.

Fires Calls Together Wide Re-
presentation

presentation
Pierre, Dec. 2O.-About 100 IN
surance agents, firemen and coun-
cilmen from all over the state are
at hand attending the fire pre-
vention congress. This is larg-
er turn out than Commissioner
Basford expected when he an
nounced the melting, and in spite
of the opposition Of some Of the
officials of the State Firemen 8
association, who felt that the
meeting should be held in con-
junction with the annual gather
ing of that organization.
The program, held in the ball
room of the St. Charles Mon
day afternoon, included remarks
by Commissioner Basford, who
outlined the purpose Of the meet
ing. E. S. Knowles, of Sioux
Falls, spoke on IA Warning
from Statistics in which he at
some length showed the immense
annual fire loss. One feature was
that during the past seventeen
years property has been burned
in South Dakota equal to the en-
tire amount in the state at that
time, as based on assessors val
uations apd allowing for low as
sessment.
F. A. Craft, Of Mitchell, state
fire marshal, talked on co-opera-
ton between the fire chiefs and
the fire marshal's apartment,
showing how the two should worb
toward one end. S. E. Crane,
the deputy fire marshal, discuss
ed inspections, their need; their
value and manner of making, in
which he largely tabulated the
work Of inspection in the past
biennium. The last number on
the afternoon program was by
0. NJ. Thurber, of the North Da-
kota association, who presented
the methods of fire prevention ant
inspection adopted by the north
state.
j The evening meeting was more
ON the social order, including a
couple of musical numbers, talks
being made by Mayor L. l.. Ste
phens, and a response by A. S.
Reed, of Aberdeen. The address
of the evening was made by Hon.

charge of the fire prevention and

FAMILY RESIDENCE IS GOOD
That Entryman May Have His
Family on Claim While He MAY
Be Away Working, is Ruling

Assistant Commissioner s. V.
Proudfit, of the United States Ian
office at Washington has just
rendered decision, which, it is
stated, will be the law regarding
the domicile and residence of
homesteaders on their claims in
the future. The ruling practi-
cally says, that, where the wife
and family reside on the claim
during period of fourteen
months, this is a residence and
that is all that it is necessary to
prove when applying for a pat
ent. In other. words the home
stesder may be away at work as
is often the case and not lose his
rights.
The decision follows closely on
agitation, which induced Presi-
dent Taft to take cognizance Of
the injustice Of the law, when in
South Dakota, last October. 1t
also shows the work which Sena-
tor Gamble and Representatives
Martin and Burke have been
doing since their return to Wash
ington in the interest Of South
Dakota homesteaders.
The facts in the case are 40
follows: Charles K. Zenor came
to South Dakota from Boone,
Ia., in April, 1907, and made en-
try ON the NEA Sec. 7, 7 An R
2E near Pierre. In June, 1908,
his fourteen months residence
on the claim expired and he com
muted. A special agent Of the
government contested the entry
and the evidence showed, that,
while the wife and family of Zen
or had lived on the claim during
the entire period, he had worked
as a barber in Pierre for most of
the time and had been nothing
more than an infrequent visitor
at the claim.
A. w. Layman Of this city was
retained by Zenor to present his
side of the case and Receiver
John Lockhart Of the Pierre land
office sustained Zenor's conten-
ton that ccnstructively his resi-
dence was where that of his
family is. The government ap-
pealed from Receiver Lockhart g
decision and Commissioner Frank
bennett Of the general land office
overruled the decision of the
Pierre land office and held the
land for cancellation. There is
where the matter stood until the
president and South Dakota s re-
presentatives in congress got busy
In the decision which Mr.. Lay
man received yesterday, the gem
eral land office reverses itself
and holds that Zenor's construc-
tive residence is legal. He will
receive his patent as soon as the
necessary formalities are COM
piled with.
The decision in part follows
"Reviewing all of the many de-
cidded cases in which were con-
sidered the sufficiency of proofs
offered, we will find no case in
which this department failed to
apply and enforce the rule that
where an entryman has establish
ed his residence upon a tract Of
public land, his home will con-
tinue to be on that land so long
as his family resides there.
1T is true that many decis-
ions Of the department have held
that the residence Of q home
stead entryman upon public land
must be actual and personal.
Carefully persuing several de-
cisions in pre-emption cases we
fail to discover that the term
personal residence as employed
in these decisions were intended
to bear q sense excluding the
idea Of family residence. On the

Various estimates have been put
forth of the number of soldiers that
Iowa sent to the front, but probably
it was about 1900, for many Iowa
boys enlisted into regiments from
other states, and of course some re
cruits came to Iowa regiments from
other states. Almost 20 per cent, or
one man out of every five that enlist
ed and marched to the front, never

It will surprise most of the old

Iowa recruited and sent to the front
"a regiment of negro soldiers, Off
cially designated as the First Regi-

were mustered into the service at
dates ranging from October to Decem-
Der IL, 1863. This regiment was on
March IL, 1864, merged into the Six
|tieth regiment of infantry, United
States Colored troops, and was mus
tered out at Duvall's Bluff, Ark,
