AS for himself, Governor Wilson
proposed to maintain, silence and
spread it on thick. He has revised
his intention of announcing his i'm

now says no statement of big ap-

after the Inauguration.
Meantime, the Democrats of the
senate just cannot keep quiet a min

ganization Of that body. The Progress

been able to pull off the double steal.
AS it. turned out, the play cut no
figure in the result of the game, as
the Red Sox were unable to over
come the One-run lead that had been
secured earlier in the fray, when this
same Weaver fellow clOUted a double
to left field, scoring Ping BOdie. With
the SOX hitting as weakly as they
were, however, every run was needed
and Bucks lapse might have been
disastrous.
Three hits were all the Sox regis
tered and numerous fans declared
the old hitless wonder days of Fielder
Jones had reappeared. Maybe so, but
Fielder would have something to say
to a player who refused to run out a
grOunder. Taking advantage of the
slips of the other fellows was the
way he used to win.
Weaver had a chance to bat right
handed yesterday. No, there isn't
any law that prevents his swinging
from the regular SIDE OF the plate as
a usual thing, but Buck did not clOut
heavily last year, so this season he
decided to bat left-handed against
Tight-Winged pitchers and reverse on
the sOUthpaws. He is oVer-anXioHs
swinging from the first base side and
offers at many bad balls. He hit the
ball sOUndly every time up yesterday,
his important double being a crash

work about twice as hard as on or
binary days. Yesterday was an ex-
ample. His mates only collected
three hits, but every bingIe counted
for a run. Backed up by this kind of
hitting, Scott had to toll desperately
to prevent a club of sIuggers like the
Red Sox from walking away with the
game. He managed to stop them just
on the danger mark, only granting
six hits.
His last Sunday game at home was
against the St. Louis Browns, when
he whitfield Is batters, but was licked
because his pals could only get a
couple of infieId scratches off of
Lefty Leverenz. That was mighty
good pitching wasted. Do you blame
Scott for laughing when he hears
about ''the day Of rest?"
In an effort to strengthen his out
field combination, Manager Callahan
will put in a stiff bid at the auction
of ChappelIe, the Milwaukee out
fielder, in the Cream City tomorrow.
President Comiskey of the White
Sox is in Brooklyn for the dedication
Of the new National League ball park
there, but before he left he author
lied Callahan to take string off the
bank roll to get Chappelle.
Several major league teams are
after the youngster, so Mrs. Brit
ton, owner Of the Milwaukee team,
conceived the idea of putting him up
at public auction. 1t is reported that
an offer Of $4,000 was made for the
player and turned down. President
Murphy of the Cubs is one of the
magnates who would like to have

with the democrats on the final test.

Payne-Aldrich law and that it con-
tanned an income tax provision.
which tho country had been trying
10 obtain for 20 years.
The bill as it passed the senate
represents an average reduction from
the existing law Of 90 per cent and
q reduction Of 4 per cent from the

Senator Sterling voted against the
measure and Senator Crawford was
paired and did not vote. 1t is not

GREAT INCREASE IN CORN

While detailed figures are not yet
compiled or accurately gathered, the
estimate for this state for several
sources is that there has been an in
crease of one hundred per cent or
more In corn acreage in the past four
years. The acreage of 1909 was in
round numbers 2,4Oo. 900, and the es-
timated increase would show practi-
cally i've million acres OF corn in
this state for the present Gear. With
the estimated yield for the state at
thirty bushels per acre the total yield
will be about $50. Ooo. 600 bushels for
1913, and at present prevailing prices
will net the South Dakota corn rails
ers q good sum for their years out

REvIsITs SCENES
OF EARLY DAYS

Sunday afternoon a stranger of pleas

of greeting. my name is Augustus
Meyers, my abiding place is New York
City. and came back to look over the
grounds upon which we camped
and to waive a good-by to the hills and
the-few scenes familiar to me at this
time. / have a short one for you.
1T was early in the month of June,
1856, four companies of the Second
United States Infantry, under command
of Gen. W. S. Harvey, in camp at St.
Louis, were orderedsto proceed with all
haste to this locality and to attack
Brule and Ogalala tribes Of Indians
which had long been assembled in
large numbers along the west bank
of the Missouri river, north of the pres
ent town site Of Fl. Pierre. / was a
mere lad, fourteen years old, and fill
ed the position Of drummer boy.
Camp equipment, arms and ammuni-
ton for the 9 of soldiers, together
with provisions, and horses, were soon
on board q boat, when a start for the up
river point was made. Boating on the
Missouri river in those days was not
swift. In passing the point where
Sioux City now is located we could see
but two small buildings, and these were
the only signs Of civilization seen, after
leaving Omaha.
The troops reached the island four miles
below this point on September 4, just
as darkness came. The next morning
the boat moved up to the location Of the
Indian camp. The Indians boats
made . hasty retreat, going up the
little stream, now know as Bad River,
camping not far from the location Of
the town Of Philip, where scouts locat-
Cd near I, 0oe Of the hostile bands. The
troops followed the warriors, and at
tackled them early in the morning Of
the third day out from camp. and shot
to death more than four hundred Of the
hostile tribes. The troops returned to
camp on the Missouri river and went
into camp for the winter.
NJ. Meyers being in Omaha came to
Pierre to look over the ground which he
Travelled, and went 70 Fort Pierre On
