IMAGINING A WRONG
DONE LYMAN COUNTY
AN UNJUST CRITICISM HANDED
TO THE CORN PALACE MAN.
.AGEMENT THAT FACTS 10
NOT WARRANT.

The following story appeared i'm
the Presho Post last week concern
ing the alleged slight extended 10 the
Lyman county agricultural exhibit in
The corn palace:
"A number from this place have
attended the Mitchell Corn Palace
during the Week. and the report has
heen brought back that the display
of grain and Vegetables tina, was sent
from Lyman county TO be exhibited
al the Corn Palace was given an en-
c%eedingly small and rather secluded
quarters in the exhibit hall. The
county commissioners appropriated a
SUN sufficient 10 buy ample space in
which TO display in tirst-class shape
all the grain and vegetables tina, was
sent from Lyman county. but in-
stead OF giving tho Lyman county eX-
hibit the space it should have had.
the Corn Palace management put cv-
eIHlllllS we sent lnlO IL space ABOUT
six feet square and nothing can be
displayed to advantage. The people
OF Lyman county, and especially
those who went to considerable trou-
bic and expense in getting the dis
play. resent this kind OF treatment
and unless a satisfactory explanation
is made by the Corn Palace manage
mcn1. the people OF Lyman county
will take particular pains to advel-
iisc the Corn Palace next year IN a
way not particularly pleasing to the
management. There are a few peo-
pie in Mitcnell who arc always look
ing for an opportunity to run down
the west OF the river country, and
this year they saw a chance 10 hand
us &; package, and-yea we got it
but next year we'll hand it back and
with vengeance"
The facts rs given by Secretary
Wheeler do not coincide with the
above statement. p. \. Nichol had
charge of this exhibit, and applica-
ton was made for space about 4 week
before the palace opened. and all the
really good spaces were taken. Mr..
Wheeler offered Mr.. Nichol a good
space on the east side Of the build
ing, used by McCook county, but he
said it was toe large, and expressed
a preference for a smaller space on
the west side OF the palace, between
Sanborn and Sphinx counties. and it
was given him. If Lyman county suf-
fered to any extent it was simply be-
cause its representative made his w
choice after getting here. The loca-
tion was Just rs good as either SPHINX
or Sanborn county and they were not
Kicking.
So far as buying" space in the
corn palace, the county commission.
ers OF Lyman county were not ask
ed to pay one cen for the room oc-
cupied. In fact the corr palace COM
mittee presented the representative
with Il premium Of $25 for coming
TO the palace, as was done to all 9TH
er exhibits in The palcae which did
not secure II OF the three prizes Of
fcrec for the best exhibit.
The Presho Post cannot help but
see the injustice OF its unwarranted
attack on the corn palace manage
ment. when 1T has always tried to ar
rant,e eYervthing-tu-the. entire salts

Pierre, S. Dat the time the
Cheyenne River indian reservation
was opened TO settlement a uianGu-
lar strip in the southern part of
what is now Ziebach county was not
included. This is what is known as
the Cherry creek country, and is the
section OF the reservation which
longest resisted amy cneroachmcnts
OF civilization and which has been
tho home of the Older Indians on ii,c
lcscrNc. Now that il is proposed TO
wipe out all reservations l.om the
northern part OF the state. the older
Indians are asking that this Cherry
creek country be left them as Il per-
pctual reservation. and that it new
CT be opened 10 settlement. This was
cut out Of the land to be opened two
years ago, by a plea for the older In
dians, and for that reason it is yet
tho Missouri both in the Cheyenne
river and Standing Rock reserva-
,ions, which will be opened before
many years, and in the opening of
these it is contemplated to include
the Cherry creek strip. n wipe u
all reservations of that part Of the
static. The Indians. while accepting
the opening Of the land along the
Missouri, are protesting against their
old home locations being given up,
bu, their protest will hardly change
the governments policy.

Pierre, s. D.-N. NJ. Hanson, Of
the state land department has re-
turned from a trip to Mellette and
Bennett counties, where he went to
select indemnity lands for the state
for the school sections taken by the
Indians in their allottments. He
says he was able to secure some fair
land for indcmnitics in Mellettc
county. but nothing in Bennett. He
says that in fact there is a shortage
OF three hundred thousand acres or
the Pine Ridge reservation, to allow
the Indians On that reserve the
amount OF land they are entitled to
Ander the allotment rulings, anu
that there is not only no show in for
white settlers, but the state itself
will have to go outside that reser-
to get its indemnity lands.
This shortage is one the present IN
dian population, and with each child
entitled to a quarter section. at birth,
the"shortage only grows With the

At the meeting of the Real Estate

At the meeting OF the Real Estate
Association in Sioux City Yesterday.
the question was brought up ior ans
cuesion relative TO starting II move
ment 10 secure II OF the Chicago,
Milwaukee 4 st. Paul's ."ansconti-
mental trains through Iowa, and
Sioux City. Ii was stated at the
meeting that one OF the officials of
the Milwaukee company gave out
the information shat the company
might he induced to send one OF
these'trains via Sioux City. 1t is held
that Eastern visitors coming west
have expressed a preference for trav-
'eling through Iowa, because they can
GET Il better view OF tho agricultural
section of the United States rather
than by travelling the northern route,
and the same holds good With refer
cnce to South Dakota.
Mr.. Harrington, OF the Real Estate
Association. has been agitating the
change in the trancontlnental train,
and he has beer assured by the Off
cials that it was only i matter Of
time until the Milwaukee officials
made the change, but he thought
that some urging from the %associa-
ton would hasten the action. a. COM
mittec consisting OF T.. +. Harring-
ton, G.. r. Ba3gerow. and w. p. Man
ley was appointed to take up the
question with the Milwaukee officials.
With this train being changed to
come west. via Sioux, City it will also
come up through Mitchell. and there
by help the train service in this sec
ton OF the state. 1T might be in har-
.mony with the situation for the Nit
.chell Commercial Club TO cooperate
with the Sioux City real estate men
toward getting this fast train tc
come west through Iowa and South
Dakota.
There has always been more or
less talk since the Olympian and the
Columbian trains were started in May
that in the course OF time, one OF
them would be sent west through
Iowa. but supposedly via Mason City,
the distance Via the latter route from
Chicago being somewhat shorter
than via Sioux City.

Storms Fury Seen in
Many Broken Windows

Evidences Of the force Of the severe
electrical storm which passed over the
city late Yesterday afternoon are today
seen upon many public and private
buildings. In many sections Of the city
the suddenness with which the storm
arose caught householders unprepared,
and the window light glass men are
husily engaged today.
At the District Building four Of the
big double windows on the Fourteenth
street side were smashed by the force
Of the wind. and only the fact that al
Of the windows are protected with
heavy screens upon the inside prevented
employees from injury. Several smaller
windows were broken in other parts OF
the building.
At the Pension Office fifteen windows
on the east side crashed inward wher
lightning struck near by. Pieces OF glass
were sent flying across the room, but
all Of the employees escaped injury
Some damage was done the trees and
shrubbery in the parking surrounding

Fellow-Students of Walter j.
Peck Plan to Attend Fun

Classmates at Gonzaga College will
bear the body Of Walter ]. Peck, the
fifteen-year- old son of Capt. Charles 7.
Peck, who was accidentally killed yes
terday when a revolver held by his
brother, Charles T. Peck, jr.. exploded,
when funeral services are he'd Friday
morning at St. Aloysius' Church. Bur-
ial will be in Mt. Olivet Cemetery.
The pallbearers will be selected from
the following members Of the second
year class: w. J. Hughes, ]. W. Darby,
c. @. Clark. B. I. Dietz. F. l.. Salb, c.
c. Herlihy. D. ]. Mcmahon, L. E.
Smith, G. d. Neitzey, ]. r. Spalding,
P. Hay, ]. F. McFadden, ". +. Buck
ley, W. ]. Murphy, D. L. Riordan, and
G. A. Viehmann. Many other students
with whom young Peck had made him
self prime favorite during his two
years will be in attendance.
The services at the church will be
brief. Father O'Connell. assisted by
several of the other priests, will cele-
brate solemn high requiem mass.
Father O'Connell was the Pre- lessor OF
the dead boy at the college, and will
also preach short funeral sermon.
Young Peck had endeared himself to
the entire faculty at Gonzaga by his
aptitude in study and gentlemanly con-
duct, and all will gather at the funeral
services.
The parents and brother OF the lad
are prostrated by the shock of his sud
den death. Scarcely an hour before
the fatal shot was fired the boy was
at communion services at st. Aloysius
| Church. From the church he had gone
TO the breaking Of ground for the new
Gonzaga College.
Last Friday night he had responded
to a toast at banquet of his class, an
occasion at which his older brother was
present in the capacity OF newspaper
| reporter.
Coroner Nevitt will issue a certificate
Of accidental death. After an inquiry he
was convinced that no blame for negli-
gence should be attached to the older
| brother, as both lads were experts with
| firearms.
The bullet which killed young Peck
| struck the feshy part Of the arm, just
above the elbow, and penetrated
| through into the body Just above the
heart. Death was practically instan.
| taneous, say the physicians who were
called to the house after the accident
| DR.. c. E. Ferguson, VINO was at the
house within a few minutes after the
shot had been fired, stated that the LAD
died within a minute after the bullet
| entered his body.
