South Dakota Central To Build North
from Watertown.
WATERFOWL, May 2S.-Preliminary
steps to secure an extension of the
South Dakota Central railroad north
from Watertown were taken at a
large meeting of Watertown business
men and representative farmers from
the territory through which the pro
jected line will pass. President F. l..
Maytag of Chicago, Vice President
and General Manager G.. w. Near
thur, and Supt. F. L. Cummins of the
railroad, attended the conference.
The meeting, which occupied the en-
tire day, is said to have resulted in a
definite understanding whereby the
city of Watertown and the country
to be served are to cooperate in the
preliminary steps necessary to get
the road under way. Three surveys
have been made north from the city,
each following in the valley of the
Sioux river. The extension is to tan
a rich farming section which has no
adequate rail facilities, and is ex-
peeted to go far enough north to
make a connection with the 500 line.

Advocates Repeal of Free Canal Toll,
Bill.

Washington, May %. - Senator
Sterling spoke in the senate on the
bill for the repeal of free canal tolls
for American coastwise ships. He
came out strongly for repeal. He
country was pl0cIouvu iIvrir rrev %his
and also held that on economic
grounds free tolls were unwise. He
objected to free tolls as a subsidy.
Senator Cummins introduced an
amendment TO the repeal bill proyid-
ing for arbitration of the canal dis
pute and fixing charges. 1t provides
the basis for tolls for vessels in for
eign shipping shall be their proper
ton of cost of maintenance and OPP
Grafton of the canal plus 2 per cent
of the investment, taking into &c
count entire tonnage. This charge is
not to exceed s1.25 a ton. The
charge for ships in domestic trade
shall be their proportion of half the
estimated cost of maintenance and
operation, but shall not exceed 90
cents per ton. Arbitration is provid-
ed for by a board of an equal number
of nationals of this country and Great
Britain and one other chosen by
them. Any decision must receive
concurrence of at least one national
of the country to which ii is adverse.

THE REAL THING
A Discussion of the Annual Gradua.
ton of Students.

Kansas City Star: In the next
Few weeks the several thousand
young people who are to be gradual
ed from what we call our institu-
tons OF learning" are going to be
deluged with advice from wise men
in baecalaurease m and COM
mencement addresses. Perhaps they
won't mind this bit in addition from
a newspaper that doesn't make any
~pretentions to wisdom.
Young men and women of the
graduating age are apt to be dazzled
by the appearance of smartness. A
young fellow once confided that he
was well on in years before he ceased
TO regard a Van Dyke beard as an
evidence of unusual mental ability.
There is an impression that needs
experience to correct that mere
smartness is pretty much all there is
to the game; and this smartness Is
usually supposed to be accomplished
with a degree of selfshness and dis
regard for the rights of others.
