/ want every girl who has done
any canning at all to send or bring

specific prizes. Study your Fair

vision 1t belongs to. Those of you
who have only the ten cans to send
can send them any time before the
22nd to Mr.. Rush's office at the
court house. Dear girls. we-have
the space at the State Fair and we
must have it filed. Then If any
of You have any ripe tomatoes and
ripe peppers, or any other vege-
tables, let me know and I will tell
You how to send them.
I do hope that any of my girls
who are going to the Fair will plan
to be there on Club Day, and I al
SO hope that some Of my girls will
go just for that day.
Now, another thing. Some ol
my members have not vet sent II
their reports. Miss Powell is urg-
| ing me to send them in to her By
the 18th. I am going to send OF
what have here then and you rur
the risk of having it counted a
gainst you not sending them OF

send them In duplicate, so that
may save one here and send on the
other to Miss Powell. / want re
ports from the ladies too. This i
very important. Please send then

COUNTY FAIR
Prospects for the Best the County
Has Ever had. 5000 IN
Cash Premiums.

The catalogues for the county
fair will be issued next week.
Write to Manager !. M. Magruder
for copy. Everything indicates
the best exhibit the county has
ever had, especially in the live
stock department.
Tie parade this year on the
opening day is planned to excel
that of last year, which was de-
cIared by competent judges to have
been one of the finest things of the
kind ever seen in the state. The
live stock parade on thursday
will probably double in numbers
of horses and cattle that of last
year.
The large cash premiums, 5000,
are drawing card for the fair.
Another special feature of the
fair will be the Third Regiment
Band, one of the best in the state,
Each evening a band concert
and moving picture show will be
held at the ground, which will be
well lighted for the occasion.
The dates of the fair are Nov.
12th, 18th and 18th.
All who will contribute wagons
for the pageant are asked to notify
Miss Hattie Person at once.

TSCHARNER LEADS
Members From Perkins County
Choice for Speaker Of
the House

Pierre, jan. 2.-If general report
has any bearing ON the subject. the
. prospects, of F.. j Tscharner, of Perkins
rs the coming speaker of the house
at the session approaching appears to
look like ss nearly a certainty as any
thing not completed politically can be
called a certainty. He is showing
strength in all parts of the state and
certainly is in a position to make a
strong showing wheE the members get
together. and the contest for place will
likely be between Tscharner and Nor
ris,. d. H. Smith of Miller, who was
at the head of the house enerossing and
enrolling force two years ago, will
again ask for that place.
Day county will bring a candidate
for the position of fret assistant clerk
of the house, a MI. Nordness; Hyde
will have a candidate for secretary OF
the senate as will Stanley; and go far
as known the only candidate yet in
the field for chief Of the house clerical
force is Burden Of this city, who filed
the place two years ago. Candidates
for miner places will no doubt be plenty
and all will be on..the ground early in
the coming week. ~z-

Dallas, Jan. 2.-The decision re-
Gently handed down by an eastern
South Dakota Judge to the effect that
Indian lands sold through government
and probate officials in this state do not
convey n perfect title, is not arousing
any excitement in this section. where
there are more owners Of such lands
than elsewhere In the northwest.
The decision only affects such Indian
lands as are classed under the heirship
branch and then only when minors are
concerned. As the minors in question
are wards of the government and their
lands are disposed of according to the
laws passed by congress authorizing
such sale no one is worrying mnch
about what the state courts will say as
to the titles. There has long been some
contention as to the necessity for pro-
batting all heirship lands, whether
minors are involved Or not. and until
recently many purchasers of Indian
heirship lands ~probated all they bought
just on the general principle that
lawyers passing upon the titles might
demand it. The interior department
held that it was unnecessary and
merely provided fees for lawyers and
guardians and courts which might as
well be spared. As a matter of fact,
the identical proofs used by the gov
eminent were simply r~eintroduced be
fore the PROBATE courts, and every
move was SO perfunctory that errors
were the rule and clean abstracts the
exception.
1t is believed that legislation max.
ing all these titles letter perfect will
not be difficult to procure once the
proper bills are introdced before the
legislature-until a judge more sstute
than any that have gone before finds
some new angie to make objection to.
Meanwhile owners Of neirship lands
need have no fear of losing their pos
sessions through the alleged discovery
of this South Dakota jurist.
