John III. Perry Dead

John H. Perry, one of the oldest res
idents of Aberdeen, died at 7:30 last
evening at his summer home in Orion
vile, Mimi, organic heart trouble being
the cause of death. Mr.. Perry has
been in poor health for the past two
years, and it has been feared several
times during the past year that he
could not live many days, but he
improved to some extent and at times
seemed almost as well as ever, although
he never entirely recovered from his
first severe illness.
The above was taken from the Aber-
deem News of Tuesday evening. The
deceased during his life was frequent
visitor in Webster and had large
number of friends who will deeply
regret his demise.

LET'S TELL THE TRUTH
ADVICE OF ONE OF THE BIG
MACHINE DEALERS
SOUTH DAKOTA'S CROP BAD
Weber Would Have us Tess m
and Let the World Know We
Have Had an Extremely
Bad Season. Then Let
us Help Each Other.

Mr.. G. c. Weber, of the Deere
Weber company, they whom there is
possibly no better authority on crops
IN this or any other country, was out
some time ago on tour of inspection of
South Dakota. He is no pessemist,
but ne does believe in telling the truth.
The crops did look bad when he was
through here and look bad yet but not
SO bad as then. He has written the
following letter which explains itself
and that contains some very excellent
advice.
Office of Deere and Weber Co.,
Minneapolis. Mimi, July 81, 1911.
Mr. l.. G Ochsenreiter,
Webster, So. OAK.
Dear Louis:-
l have not written you since
our trip to Aberdeen, as I wanted TO
wait until you could write me about
now your crop was coming along:
but l want to write now to thank Won
Tor the kind attention shown me. I
enjoyed the ride very much, excepting
l did not enjoy the poor crop or no
crop at all that we saw.
How is your section coming along
since | left, especially the crop north
OF town, and are they going TO have
some corn and potatoes south of town 2
am wondering what the State of
south Dakota is doing or going to do
about helping those poor fellows west
OF the Missouri river, and there are
probably good many of them be-
tween the James river and the Mis-
souri, river that need help too: but
there are great many of them west
OF the river that have no crop, have
no feed for their stock. or food for
their families. and while the state
may be doing something to help these
people through the winter. If they are
there has been nothing in the papers
about it. | wonder IL the officials are
aiive TO the situation. They should
Dot let pride stand in the way; that
is, thinking that what they do might
give the state bad name. The main
thing Is to give these people some
>help, so that they will stay on the
!anu ana De able to take care of their
iamines through the winter. and l
really believe that many of them are
In a desperate situation. Many of
them are strangers, having only been
tneie TOT year or two, and they
hardly know which way to turn.
You know we are not alarmists here
over the crop situation. Our nerve is
pretty good on that; but we have been
through this thing before and my own
belief is that the northern half of
south Dakota has the poorest crop it
has ever had. If nothing is being
done toward helping out these home
steaders and new corners who have no
reserve resources, you could not do

La Toilette Measure Agreed to
as a Compromise.
LINE UP WAS 48 TO 90
Said President Taft Will Veto Bill
When II Reaches Him for His
Approval.

Washington, July 2S.-The compro-
mise wool tariff bill offered by Sena-
tor La Toilette of Wisconsin, q modi-
fication of both his own and the house
bill, was passed by the senate, 48 to
80, by the union of Democrats and
Republican insurgents. Upon this
middle ground the Democrats, having
secured a record vote on the original
Underwood BILL Joined with the Re-
publican insurgent forces. Those
who voted for the bill were:
observation-disclosures, Oregon; Bris-
tow, Kansas; Brown, Nebraska; Clapp
and Nelson, Minnesota; Crawford,
South. Dakota; Cummins. and. Ken
yon, Iowa; Gronna and McCumber,
North Dakota; La Toilette, Wisconsin;

Texas; Bankhead and tombstone, Ala

Chamberlain, Oregon; Chiffon and
Davis, Arkansas; Foster and Thorn
ton, Louisiana; Gore and Owen, Okla
homa; Hitchcock, Nebraska: Johnson,
Maine; Kern and Shiyely, Indiana;
Martin and Swanson, Virginia; Mar
tine, New Jersey; Myers, Montana;

York; Overman and Simmons, North
Carolina; Paynter, Kentucky; Pom
erence, Ohio; Reid and Stone, Mis-
souri; Smith, Maryland; Smith, South
Carolina; Taylor, Tennessee; Will
Jams, Mississippi.
Bill Certain Of Veto.
Proceedings in the senate and de-
velopments that are to follow the
resolution for the wool bill, however,
will be futile SO far as any addition
to the statute books is concerned.
1t can be said upon highest author
fly that President Taft will veto the
wool bill IL it ever gets to the White
House and there are not sufficient
number of votes in its favor to pass
It over the veto.
in connection with the result Is In re-
gard to the effect 1t may have on the
future of the farmers free list bill.
There Is firm belief among the Re
publican leaders that the farmers free
list bill is to be put through by prac-
tically the same coalition and this was
one of the considerations upon which
the Democrats finally consented to be-
come a tail to Senator La Follette's
presidential kite.
Not only will a considerable num-
Der of progressive Republicans be
ready to vote for the farmers free list
bill, but there are at least two regu-
lar Republicans who are peeved over
the passage of the Canadian reciproc-
fly bill and who are ready, it is be-
lieved, to join with the Democrats in
passing the farmers free list bill as a
complement OF the Canadian pact.

The Renter Gets the Best Of 1t

G. M. Brady informed us that man
doesn't have to come from Iowa to
show South Dakota farm proprietors
how to use their tenants. He is rent
ing farm from C. H. Compton and
said Charley, some time ago, told him
to go ahead and get what he could off
the place and keep it. G. M. thinks,
by Charley's generosity, he will be able
to pull through until the next crop is
harve sted without disposing of his
stock, but it will be a pretty tight
squeeze and he never could have made
it if his landlord had demanded his
share of the crop.

Church Notes

Mr.. Editor:
Through your columns we desire to
reach our Methodist constituency, call
ing especial attention to the resump-
tion of regular services at the Metho-
dist church next Sabbath, August 6.
After vacation rejuvination your pas
tor calls you once more to the firing
line AS Bible school let us encour-
age Bro. Mclean by rallying round his
standard next Sunday morning. The
call is: "Be in your places without a
single exception if possible"
1t would be most gratifying to the
writer, should the people at large favor
US with their presence at our "Lord s
Day Worship" Should these lines fall
under the eye of those who never
attend church may they inspire you to
say-'I'm going next Sunday"
Brethren, transfer your purses from
the overall pocket to the Sunday suit
and begin the new term with rousing
collection. Pray that the blessing of
our Heavenly Father may rest upon US.
Help to answer these prayers by
coming and by inducing others to come
with you. M. r. Ctisp.
