THE LEAGUE ORGANIZED.

The Development League of Utah is
now fully organized, and, presumably,
will soon be prepared for its business
of boosting this State and the several
localities therein. The sessions held for
its formation were enthusiastic through

| the cause of bringing the State for
| ward TO the favorable attention of tho
country, with view TO inviting settlers
and capital.
If there might be any criticism of
the work as effected, one could per
! haps suggest that there is too much
| diffusion of the organization, too little
| concentration, and that this might per
baps at times prove weakness Still,
no one is disposed TO crticise. but all
arc disposed to help and TO boost; and
in that good cause we trust that the
League will not only show the way.

no doubt but Utah is available for large
settlement and for large investments of
capital. We have the soil; we have
the climate; VIC have everything ia

especially easy. it is at least practi

looking it over we conclude that its
features are commeudable and fair In
both directions At the same time, it
should not be forgotten that the re
sponsibIlity of directors in banks should
be always strictly defined and that dl-
rectOrs should be held to closer and
more individual responsibility than has
been usual in the banking business.
Almost universally where bank has
failed there have been two elements
in the failure that should have been
absolutely provided against. One OF
these causes is the improper lending
to officials of the bank of the depos-
itors money Another is the failure OF
directors to exercise their proper and
lawful functions of seeing that the af'
fairs of the bank are properly con
Quoted.
The need Of the time on this matter
is, first that the loans Of banks to ats
officials shall be not only nominally
restricted but absolutely regulated and
held within proper bounds. And sec
ond that directors should be required
to give their attention to the busl-
ness of the bank as their acceptance
of the directorate implies that they
will do. If they refuse or neglect to
give this attention that should be
given then they should be held per
sonally to account, and made to com
pcnsate innocent losers out of their
private fortunes The personal respon-
sibiity of directors in banks should
be clearly set forth, and that personal
responsibility absolutely fixed. There
would be no hardship in this If the
law carried the notification of that
expectation, and made the requirement
of practical effect and force.
The bill comes up next IN the Sen
ate And il anything further is nee
cssary to the strengthening of the bill
in these directions, or in any other,
doubtless the Senators will attend to
it and see that the proper reinforce
ment is provided.

Remarkable Rain :.

MuTdo.-This section OF the state
was visited by another heavy rain
Sunday afternoon, which filled most
OF the dams and washed out some OF
them. The large railroad reservoir
here overfiowed for the first time in
two or three years. Two weeks ago
considerable anxiety was felt lest the
dam would go dry, as it was the lowest
it has been since first filled, but the
heavy rains of the past few days have
allied it with a supply that will last a
couple Of years.
During the j. days from July % to
August 6 this vicinity received more
than eve inches of rain, according
to the government gauge. On Saturday
we had a downpour Of 21a inches that
started all of the draws and creeks run
ming, blu did not cover a very large
territory north and south. A week ago
Sunday we had a light shower in Muir.
do, but 10 miles north Of the city they
had a heavy rain, which washed out
several dams. Wednesday we were
favored with another rain of 2R inch
es: Saturday, three-fourths of an inch
more, and Sunday, o%ne-fourth of an
inch. This has made an abundance OF
water for all uses and people owning
stock are especially pleased. The
rains will make the late corr and will
improve as fodder what was too far
gone to make a good yield Potatoes
are growing nicely and will make a
| good crop and the prairies have fresh
ened up and give the appearance OF
| spring and the prospects for feed are
much improved.

PLAN CORN PALACE
EXPOSITION AT GREGORY WILL
AIM TO BE A CLOSE SECOND
TO MITCHELL SHOW.
What is Going On Here and There
That is of interest to che Read
ers Throughout South Oa-
kota and Vicinity.

Gregory. = Committees appointed
by the commercial club of this city
are now hard at work on the latest
project brough forth by that BODY Tor
the entertainment of the great crowds
who will register here for Mellette anu
Bennett county hOmesteads IN octo-
Der. The project is the erection OF a
corn palace on a large scale in which
will be placed exhibits of farm pro-
ducts Of the Rosebud country for 1911.
While the Gregory corn palace may
not equal in magnitude the regNlar
annual exposition Of the same nature
at Mitchell, it is intended to make II
a close second and fully as interesting
from an agricultural point Of view.
Crops in the Rosebud country THIS
year are most excellent, there having
been abundance Of rain, and one OF
the most gratifying phases OF the corn
palace project is the delight expressed
by the farmers of this section that an
opportunity is to be given them TO
show off" the fruits of their industry
to misguided fasteners who are under
the impression that South DAKOTA Is
drought stricken. AS at present plan
ned the corr palace will be located
facing Main street with a frontage OF
70 feet.
The registration for homesteads be-
gins on October 2, and ty that time
the crops will be matured and the eX-
hibit will be ready for inspection.
Being located in the same block as
the Unitetd States land office building,
the corn palace cannot we'll escape
the attention of homeseekers, and it is
believed that after inspecting its eX-
hibits they will return to the east with
an entirely different opinion of the
Rosebud country from which they may
have had upon their arrived.

For Alfalfa Irrigation.

Platte.-Enoch Norbeck, of artesian
we'll fame, is going into the irrigation
OF alfalfa on a large scale. He has
bought a large tract Of Missouri river
bench land, which he is now having
surveyed for irrigating bitches. He
will put down an artesian we'll, run
the water into a dam and then fix it
SO that he can irrigate the large field
planted to alfalfa. He figures that he
will be able to take off three crops
which means that he will have a good
many hundred tons of hay each year.
He will stock the place with cattle
and hogs and when his plans are
worked out will have an ideal place.

Mitchell Corn Palace.

Mitchell.-That South Dakota crop
conditions promise a satisfactory bus
mess year is already best indicated by
the plans that are being made for the
annual corr palace here and the South
Dakota state fair. The Mitchell corn
palace will be open n week following
the week of the state fair. The state
fair has booked some Of the best at
fractions ever offered by it and fully
as much can be said of the Mitchell
corr palace. Ellery's band of so
pieces, which this summer has gone
to Scotland and then direct to the
Pacific coast. will furnish the music
for the occasion. Some Of the finest
agricultural exhibits eve seen at the
corn palace will be at hand this year,
as indicated by the reports already re-
ceived by the committee on exhibitions.
Other attractions of the highest class
will be found al the Mitchell corn pal.

Crops at Presho.

Presho.-The exaggerated crop con
dftions that have been current in the
papers for some time concerning the
western part of South dakota do not
apply to this part of the state. There
will be shipped from this place over
1000 tons Of wild hay. about thirty
cars now being shipped. Cream to
the amount of $l,4O0 is sen out week
ly. Hhe corr on the Carl zimmerman
place, four miles north of town, will
make from so to 60 bushels per acre
on fifty acres, and B. d. Guernsey,
three miles southeast of town, has a
~sixty-acre field that will make at least
60 to 20 bushels per acre.

Selling Off Live Stock.

Deadwood.-Cattle sales being re-
ported from the range country around
Belle Fourche tell of good prices being
brought for nearly everything sold.
Cattlemen just over the South Dakota
line. in Montana, are almost without
exception selling out completely, as
they fear at that distance from the
railroad to face the winter with a pos
sibility of no feed. These herds, in
Guiding 2 and 3~-year-olds, yearlings
and old COWS, are bringing $50 per
head. The rains have had the effect
on the sheepmen Of causing them to
change their minds about shipping
out everything, and they are holding
part of their bunch. AS the grass on
the ranges in this state is beginning
to show up green again many sheep
men are willing to take a chance.

Rapid City.-After a brief hearing In
the circuit court Judge MCGEE awarded
to Mrs. Henry Weakley of Omaha, the
mother, custody of 5-year-old Charles
J%enree, the child alleged to have been
kept in a cage with armadillos, or
grave robbers. Mrs. Matte Johnson
Of Farmingdale, who, with her hus-
band, Jerry Johnson. were accused OF
exhibiting the child at fairs, entered a
contest on the ground that Mrs. Weak
ley, having once been ~adjudged insane,
was unfit to care for the boy, but the
court decided for the mother.
Mrs. Johnson, who denied any inhu-
man treatment, has left to join her
husband in st. Paul. and the mother
and boy went to Omaha. The Isl at
tracted much attention and the boy
was located only after months OF
search.

room for all. All exhibitors are as
sured, however, that ample provis-,
ion has been made for the display Of
their exhibitions to the very best
advantage.
The state OF South Dakota. and her
great State Fair, have ougrown all
misunderstanding. The fair of this
year will be he biggest demonstration
hat the state has ever given of her
wonderful stability.
Every citizen of Soath Dakota owes
it to himself, to his family, his bust
ness and his county, to be on hand
at his own state fair. If he has been,
pround Of South Dakota in other
years, he will worship her now. But
he can not fully appreciate the state
unless he sees the great display at
the State Fair at Huron this fall.

Camps at the State Fair.

Huron.-The managers Of the state
fair announce that every possible con-
venience will be afforded to those who
wish to camp on the grounds during
the entire week. Special lots will be
set aside for this purpose, with city
water and sewer connections for con-
venience and sanitary purposes. Those
who purchase regular season tickets
may obtain a campers ticket without
extra charge. Anyone holding a sea.
son ticket or a ticket for the following
day will be admitted after 9 p. m. to
the grounds, if they wish to leave
camp and spend part of the day Or the
evening in the city. Arrangements
have been made with a tent and avn
ing company to furnish campers with
suitable tents.
Wells will be sunk at convenient
places on the grounds to relieve the
public from using artesian water if not
desired. These wells will be about IS
feet deep, and from a gravel bottom
will furnish the very best drinking wa,
ter. For general purposes, artesian
water is piped throughout the grounds.
