CHEAP RIDE WAS
QUITE EXPENSIVE
Foreigner Robbed of Large Sum of
Money BY Nan Who Posed
as Conductor.

Word was received here yester-
day morning of a bold hold-np
near Se!by on Milwaukee box
car
a foreigner says that he was ac
coSted at Selby by a man whom he
thought to be the conductor Of the
train. The man, he says, asked
him if he wanted to ride on his
train, and that if he would pay
him - cents he could travel in
one of the box cars.
The foreigner says he paid over
the - cents, and that the man
told him to get into the box car
Once inside OF the car, the forein-
er claims that the man whom he
thought to be the conductor struck
hiM in the face and took from him
his ather wallet containing 1928.
The thief then made his getaway
by leaping from the train.
The man who was robbed, so it
is learned, made the mistake of dis
playing his wad Of bills in the
station restaurant at Mobridge
yesterday and at that time there
were number of questionable
characters around who saw him.
Detective Emmett Burke, of the
Milwaukee, road is working on the
case. The victim of the robbery
still believes that the man who got
his money is a railroad employe,
and now says tnat he might have
been a brakeman, instead of a con
ductor. The authorities are, how
ever. convinced that the Job was
pulled off by a professional crook,
who has been operating this game
as a speciality in this vicinity for
several months.
A similar case. in which the
victim was robbed of about 500,
was brought to the attention of the
local police several months ago.

that you see back of you have been
very brave in their day. We were
at war with our enemies, other
tribes, and the government asked
us not to make war on one another
and we had quit that. At these
celebrations they dress up and you
can see them in the way they used
to live and the way they went on
the war path The last thing they
are showing is the way they used
to dress. Now, MY friends, that
is all | am going to say to you to-

SEED CORN STORED
IN A MODEL WAY
Better Farming Association Makes
ARRANGEMENTS With That
End in View.

The South Dakota Better Farm
ing association has made arrange
ments with the Dakota Farmer to
use large room. in which to store
seed corn. Five bushels each
from one hundred farmers can be
handled. This corn must be pick
ed before the early frOsts and
brought to Aberdeen where the
association will care for it during
the winter and will make GER
mlnation test next spring. In
this way a limited number of
farmers will have the advantage of
seed corn house, and will also
know that their corn will be well
taken care Of Five bushels of
tested seed corn will be good
start for another year. 1t will
plant about forty acres, from
which the future seed cali be Sc
cured.
The Better Farming association
is storing this corn for a limited
number of farmers because many
farmers do not have the time nor
the place in which to properly
handle seed corn. The low vital
ity Of the seed this past spring was
largely due to the way the corn
was handled during the winter.
Immediately upon the receipt of
the seed corn it will be hung
where the dry air can freely cir
culate and where it will not be
frozen. The corn will be free
from mice and each farmers corn
will be stored separately. Dur
ing the winter an accurate ger
test will be made, after
which the owners can remove the
corn for planting.
SEED Is ALL IMPORTANT
Walworth county is especially a.
dapted to corn production. How
ever, if best results are to be had
considerable attention must be
paid to the seed that is used. 1t
must be corn that will mature
before frost and one that has
strong vitality. Early maturing
seed com always finds a ready sale
and in order to obtain seed of this
kind it must be selected from the
field early in the fall. The largest
and best matured ears from strong,
stalks should be gathered.
The seed should then be dried as
quickly as possible. When this
method of selection is maintained
for few years al early maturing
variety will be the result. Early
seed corn always com
mands good price and it always
lnsures crop.

NO-HEART TELLS
OF OTHER DAYS
Ciiief of Sioux Indians, at Timber
Lake Celebration, Talks for
His People.
Calls Attention TO Benefits Resultire
From lnterminelins of White
and Red Menu
Associations Have Brought About
Better Understanding of One
Another.

Timber Lake, Aug 20. In the
recent celebration here, Judge No
Heart, one of the leading chiefs Of
the Sioux Indians, made an ad-
dress in the Sioux language, which
was interpreted by Henry Fielder.
No-Heart said:
The first thing that | would like
to speak about is the celebration
that we are celebrating today, and
about the flag under which we
have protection today. Before
start into my main part of the
speech would like to say few
things about the present time and
celebrations. have lived long
enough to remember that our fa-
theirs have lived the life of the
people you see back of you here
today. In the old days they cele-
brated and dressed as you see them
here today. The Indions did not
have any education, but they used
their brains to think out good to-
gether ana fought out their plans.
Some of you have seen today the
customs and old doings of our
people and get some idea Of how
we used to live. We did not have
very many things in early days to
bother our minds about, the only
thing we had to think about was
where to find our buffalo and how
to care for and feed our children.
The younger generation is coming
up all the time. We came in con
tact with the white people up aud
down this Missouri river and have
lived with them ever since. We
have mingled with you up and
down this river and have become
used to your customs and see how
to live in the country. And few
of us that understood the white
man s customs and understood
what they were, tried to teach our
people the meaning of it all. A
few of us today understand what
the great government is trying to
do for us, and in turn we have
tried to better our people. The
great father has tried to instruct
us in the way the white men live
and we in turn have told our peO-
pie. In those old days we dressed
like you see them now, but the
president Of the great powers told
us to raise cattle and crops and we
tried to do it. And the great fa-
ther told us that we should own
cows and make butter, and we have
done it. We were Indians. but we
farmed large tract of land and

On the reservation west of the
Missouri river the crops are much
bester than on this side.
This is h new country aad prac-
ticalIy all OF the land under culti-
vajion was broken this year.
Naturally it is quite difficult to get
the first years breaking worked
down to a degree Of cOmpactness
sufficient to retain the moisture
like old land. Nevertheless this
seasons crop is a good one-wheat
ana other small grain yielding
from 10 to 20 bushels per acre,
while flax will yield from e to 10
bushels TO the acre, according to
the way it was put in. Under or
diudry conditions with the land
we'll cu,tiyated- which, of course,
IS impossible the first year or two
the crop in the reservation country
would have been much larger
However, everyone is well satisfied
with the results and fully realize
that this section Of the state is
very rich in agricultural possibil-
tiles. Potatoes and all other
vegetables are especially fine. In
fact it see rs that this country is
especially adapted to gardening.
The present crop means much in
the development of the reservation
country. This country was open
ed up to settlement only little
over two years ago and the major
ity OF The settlers have only been
on their land a little over year.
y comparatively small amount of
land was broken last year, but
with the beginning Of this season
every hOmeoteader put as much Of
his land under cultivation as his
resources would permit, and the
result Of their efforts will be a
ve:y good yield Of crops.
As result Of the present crop
land values Will naturally advance
very rapidly and the country will
forge ahead at rapid pace. Land
on the reservation is fully as pro-
ductive as the land on this side of
the river, but owing to the new
ness Of the country is now selling
ut an average Of about half the
Price OF the land on this side.
The development Of this country
means much 90 the business inter
ests of Mo5ridge, as this city is
the natural commercial center of
this vast region. Its railway con
neciions are such that Modridge
is the gateway OF the new coun-
try and is in daily communication
with every town on the reserva-
tion on account Of the excellent
tain service. AS the country de-
velops so will the jobbin2 inter
ests Of this city increase. These
people need all the necessaries of
life and there is no city from which
they can be supplied with as much
convenience as flom this point

have peace among the people at all
times, that is, among the whites

was coming when the younger gen
eratlCn was going to mingle with
the white people.
PROGRESS OF INDIANS
The younger generation is ac-
cumulating property, farming and
saising stock and are doing the
very things that we have told them.
We understand we are to mingle
with the white people in the coun-
try, and we are progressing III that
line. Sometimes | look back and
think over the past, and looking
ing to the future | see that we are
progressing. Then there is anoth-
er great thing that the government
is doing for us, establishing schools
among Our people to educate them.
Now, when the government put
the schools among us, we constant
ly advised the Young people to at
tend these schools So that they
might get an education. Some
times when | think over how | was
instrumental in advising these
things, it makes my heart feel
good. When | die and leave this
world these young people that are
being educated, hope they will
carry on this good work of educa-
ton. Many Of you know that the
little children you see around here
are capable of speaking your Ian
guage. Some of these younger
people that are getting an educa-
tiOn will be the leaders among their
people and will be instrumental in
teaching their people, the Indians.

not over the Republican candi-
date, nor the Progressive candi-
date, but over William A. Gun
nea, the Socialist candidate.
There is only one explanation
of this; only one answer to this
extraordinary vote for Guinea.
Guinea promised the people
that if elected he would end the
reign of the trust newspaper
thugs and force the trust publish
ers who employed gunner and
shielded murderers to answer to
the law.
That was why the people cast
their votes for William A. Cum
nea, and that was why Macley
Hoyne ran $4,000 votes behind
the Democratic ticket which
swept the nation, state and
county.
The decent people of Chicago
wanted Guinea in the states at
torney's office so he could carry
out that one great pledge of his,
and the decent people of Chicago
would have put Guinea in Office
if it had not been for the lodging
house wards.
Every effort of the Hearst
Harrison machine, every effort of
the hired tools of Andy Lawrence,
was bent to elect Maclay Hoyne.
And all their efforts only pull
ed Maclay Hoyne through by the
skin of his teeth.
