by a large %concourse of friends Of
the family, and the remains were
laid at rest in the Lutheran GENE
terry.

Staven of Brookings in November,
1905, and she survives him, together
with a little daughter. He also leaves
an aged mother, two sisters and a
brother in Norway and a brother in
this country.

tend sympathy to the sorrowing wife
and little daughter.

A LIBRARY IN BROOKINGS?

Miss Stearns, who Is coming here
to speak on the value Of Libraries,
Is employed by the state of Wis
consin to go up and down the state,
especially to the most remote cor
ners establishing travelling libraries.
Wisconsin thinks the library a neces.
sity and that the state should be pro-
vided with n kept up to date by
the state. Brookings is the only town
of its size in this state without a
public library. Shouldn't we have
one? If you think so, come out and
hear Miss Stearns, who will move
your convictions to action. II you
are not interested, give her a fair
show by hearing what is to be said
on behalf Of libraries. Miss Stearns
gives us her time, intelligence en-.
thusiasms freely. Convinced by ex.
p%erience, she speaks with an engag.
ing authority. Even IL not interested
in libraries you will be interested
in her.
The place: The Baptist church.
The hour: -Four p. m, Monday, No
vember 9th.
Miss Stearns leaves on the west
bound train to address the South Da-
kota Educational Association. She

return to the obsolete system Of I'M
restricted competition, or shall place
the stamp of law upon modern meth
DDS of cooperation. Patriotic men
everywhere have shown great interest
in the hearings, and many Members of
Congress have returned to Washing
ton for the single purpose of attend
ing the sessions. If the hoped-for
should happen, and these sessions are
conducted impartially without respect
to political bias, there cannot help
but be evolved one Of the greatest
assets in the way of knowledge of an
economic problem, that has been
brought out from a Congressional in.
vestigation in many years.
The amount of manufactured con-
v~ersation and harmony turned out III
the United States is shown by the
Census Department. There were 344,-
6S1 monographs and graphophones
and 27,lS3,959 records and blanks
made in 1909. The total value of the
monographs and gra%phophones was
$5,407, 600 in 1909 and $780, 900 in
1904, an increase of 50 per cent, and
of the. records and blanks So, 007, 900
in 1909, and $4,679,O00 in 1904, an in
of seven percent.
The tariff may be thread-worn, but
as a subject to be dealt with by Con-
gress it is doubtful if there has been
a more general demand for a revis'o on
in years than exists now. OF course
the whole Democratic representation
a see none of the merits Of the
Payne-Aldrich law, and most Republi-
cans including the President, are will
ing there should be a revision of some
of the schedules. The big fight of the
special session over the wool schedule
will be revised, with the difference
that the report of the Tariff Board
will clear away the points in contro-
versy as to conditions within the in
dustry and will leave the different
Members to apply their pet notions
of tariff for revenue only" or pro
lection hight and dry" according to
their own fond viewpoint. Indications
are that general revision will be at
tempted by the Democratic majority
in the House, but it is hardly to be
expected that such an attempt can
be successful; and there is a certain
ty that if it is, that the President will
defeat such d program by the power
of veto. However the flood-gates of
general legislation will be let down
at the coming session-a condition
quite different from that existing dur
ing the special session, when the bust
ness was pre-arranged in caucus,
There is trouble ahead for the Com
merce Court, which is being accused
of causing delay in carrying out the
policies of the Interstate Commerce
Commission with reference to rail
roads. Senator Borah declares that
Congress will repeal the law providing
for the Court, and says that only a
veto of such action by the President
can save the Court. Members of Con-
gress are freely asserting that before
the creation of the Court the rail-
roads accepted DEGREES handed down
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion and seemed reasonably satisfied,
but that since the creation Of the
Commerce Court practically all i'm
portant cases are appealed and final
action thereon delayed.
