road south. These matters were all
brought up by the members of the club
and it was the generally expressed
opinion of all present that Brookings
should get behind this railroad PROPOSE
ton en- masse and see if something
cannot be started. Roads have lodged
this city, one two stations east, and
one two stations west, long enough;
the next north and south railway is
coming through Brookings.
The matter of good roads aroused
considerable discussion and not much
of anything more. For a while it look
ed as though the meeting would deter
iorate into a debating society, one
side maintaining that petitions are
very useful when used as a prod on
governing bodies, the other side main
tanning that such governing bodies are
made up of business men who are ex-
pected to do the right thing while rep
resenting the people and that an ex-
preston Of the will of the people by
petition upon every detail is not neces-
sary and that the cost of preparing
such a petition would do more in the
way of making the roads passable by
being expended in shovel pushing than
it would if it were spent in purchasing
paper, ink and solicitors. 1t was finally
decided, however, to mark the black
and yellow trail in Brookings county
and the club put the matter of enter.
tanning the pathfinders, who are jour
neying from Chicago to Yellowstone
Park, into the hands of the appropriate
committee. The pathfinding party is
expected here on August 18th and will
remain in the city yer night. Upon
the completion Of their trip over the
trail they will make their report and
whether Brookings stays on the trail
or not depends to a great extent upon
their report. 1t was suggested that all
auto owners who can possibly do so
meet the party at Aurora and escort
them to the city.
Prof. Solberg reported that the city
council had appropriated 100000 to.
ward graveling the streets between
the Main street district and the col
lege. This will make a good beginning
toward better streets for Brookings
and the the club showed that it ap-
preciated the efforts of Mr.. Solberg by
greeting his announcement with loud
applause.
The matter Of a weed day came up
and was referred to the appropriate
committee. 1t is intended that the
city council and Commercial Club shall
cooperate in designating one day in
the near future as weed day, and on
that day the people will be expected to
get busy and clean all the weeds from
the face Of the city. This, by the way,
should be done before college starts.
Refreshments, consisting principally
of coolers, brought the evening to a
close.

DECORATION DAY.
The City was Filled with People
From Far and Near and All
Heartily Enjoyed the Days
Program.

The dawning of the morning OF
Decoration Day. Friday, May 30, 1913,
came as disappointment to many
as it was cloudy misty and dismal
During the forenoon the light rain
continued, but toward noon the wea-
ther cleared and the afternoon was
a delight, so bright and pleasant it
proved to be.
Notwithstanding the unsettled
state of the weather, a large con-
course of people gathered for the
march to the cemetery and at about
ten-thirty the line was formed as fol-
lows:
Lexington Band.
Boy Scouts in uniform.
Camp Fire girls in uniform.
School children.
City Council.
Sons of Veterans.
Old soldiers in autos
Citizens in carriages.
The spectacle presented by this
procession on its way to the ceme-
terry was pronounced the finest one
Yale has ever had, the Boy Scouts
and Camp Fire girls adding much to
the march, and the excellent martial
music from the Lexington band,
bringing back the old wartime fervor
to the hearts of the veterans.
Arrived at the city of the dead, the
usual custom of decorating the
graves OF comrades was performed
and the line was reformed for the
return, and the ceremonies incident
to Decoration Day were over once
more.
The rain had stopped and the
clouds dispersed so the sports for the
afternoon were carried out as anti.
cipated with the exception that the
the ball game between Emmett and
Yale was played on the diamond at
the City park instead of at the race
track.

ROCHESTER ALL RIGHT
FOR MINING, OTHER
BUSINESS IS SLOW

J. c. Wheeler OF East Ely. return
ed Friday night from Rochester
where he went soon after the boom
in that camp and engaged in the
wholesale and retail grain and pro-
duce business. Mr.. Wheeler has
closed out his stock there, and the
probabilities are that he will resume
the business at East Ely. in which he
was engaged before going to Roehes-
ter. Concerning the Rochester camp
he states that it is all right as a min
ing proposition. but that the busi-
neess there is oyerdone. The out
put of ore at present is at the rate
of five car loads every other day, the
largest operations being conducted
at the Nenzel holdings where a 1900
foot ore shute has been built down
the mountain. Auto trucks are used
to transport the ore a portion of the
way to the railroad. but at present
the condition of the road across the
fiat is such that the heavy auto
trucks cannot be operated.
Mr.. Wheeler believes that anyone
with the means to play a waiting
game. will eventually win out finan-
cially in Rochester. and that the
camp offers a good opportunity in
real estate investment as we'll as
mining He reports Dick Marks as
still there in the saloon business. but
that most of the others who went
from this district have gone away.
DR.. Woods stay there was short, and
the last he heard from him he was
at Mason.
Mr.. Wheeler has received a hearty
welcome from his friends here, who
are glad to know that he is thinking
of again becoming a resident of Ely.
Mr.. Wheeler has retained the owner
ship of the building he erected at
Rochester, for renting purposes.

ling case, the defendant being B.

TOO MUCH AIR KILLS
FISH IN COUNTY LAKE

Thursday night was a bad night
for the fish in the court house lagoon
Because the outlet pipe that drains
the lagoon was left open, most of
the water in the miniature lake
trickled away and left several hun
dred fine trout gasping in the mud.
A lot of the trout died, the number
estimated as high as 700, although
it is not probable that anyone took
the trouble to count them. Most of
the dead fish were packed away by
people who are appreciatiye of the
appetizing flavor of a nicely fried
trout
II has not been officially announc-
ed just who was to blame for the
unfortunate happenstance, but from
all that can be learned it was an
error of judgment on the part of
the man who opened the outlet with
out making any provision for having
it shut off before the water had all
drained out of the lagoon. II was
all brought about by a leak in the
big pipe carrying water to the pow
er plant. 1t eventually became nee
essary to reach a section of the main
that crosses enc end OF the lagoon
and in order to do this a portion of
the water in the pond had to be
drawn off.
SO the outlet was opened and it
was open early Friday morning. When
Dave McLane on his way to the sta
tion discovered the situation. Dave
didn't do a thing but get busy, and
his prompt action saved the lives of
a number of the fish that had man
aged to keep under water
The incident made a lot of COM
ment Of a varied nature. and the sub
ject is still a tender one for those
mixed up in the tragedy of the court
house lagoon.

LOW TARIFF BILL
HOUSE
FIGHT NOW GOES TO THE SEN
ATE WHERE PREDICTIONS
POINT TO AN ALL SUMMER
CONTEST.

The Underwood tariff bill pro-
claimed by the Democratic party as
the answer TO its platform pledge to
reduce the tariff downward, was
passed by the house late Thursday.
The vote was PSI to 139. five Demo-
Gratis voting against the bill and two
Republicans voting for it. Four
Progressives supported the measure
and IA opposed it, while one inde-
pendent Progressive Joined the ma
jority.
When Speaker Clark announced
the vote in loud tones that revealed
his satisfaction, exuberant Demo-
Gratis started a stuffed Democratic
donkey over the heads of their col
leagues in the rear of the chamber, a
faint ripple of applause followed, and
the gavel fell on the first chapter in
the history of President Wilson's ex-
ira session of congress.
Republicans and Progressives, led
Murdoch, protested to the last
against the measure, the lowest
tariff bill ever written and proclaim
ed, as the Democratic avalanche
bowled them over. the virtues of diff
fering tariff commission plans. The
Republicans who voted for the bill
We're Carey and Stafford of Wiscon-
sin. Democrats who opposed it were
Broussard, Dupres, LaZare and Nor
gan of Louisiana, and c. B. Smith of
New York. Progressiyes who voted
for the bill were Kelly and Rupley of
Pennsylvania, Nolan of California,
and Bryan of Washington. Kent of
California, formerly a Republican,
but now an independent Progressive,
Leader Murdock and 13 of his Pro-
gressive followers voted with the
minority in the final consideration of
the measure.
The tariff fight now shifts from
the house with its overwhelming
Democratic majority, to the senate
whore the party's slim majority of
six already has been reduced, as far
as this bill is concerned. to four I'm
less senators familiar with the pro-
gress of such legislation are mis-
taken there is now little prospect of
a final vote on the bill before Aug. /.
The bilfs passage through the
senate will be fought at every step
by a Republican organization. Lead
ers of the Democrats on the senate
finance committee which will handle
the bill expressed the belief that it
will go through in practically the
same form as it passed the house and
that their small majority will stand
firm TO the last.
