 Louis Belney arrived last Satur- day fresh from the Chisana and what he has to say of that camp will not be conducive to stampedes in that direction.
 Mr. Belney says there have been nc new discoveries made since op- erations closed down il the fall al- though the country has been exten- sively prospected during the win ter.

The question is often asked, How
many times has woman suffrage been
submitted TO the people of this state?"
So the column this week gives an cpl
time of its history. In the year 1885
when both of the Dakotas were all one
territory a suffrage bill was brought in
by Major j. A. Picker. 1t passed both
houses by good m~ajorities. Gov. Gill
bert A. Pierce promised to sign it. But
the governor had been sen from the
east by the president. He received tele-
all night from opposing inter
ests and he vetoed the bill! At the
first election after statehood in 1890
the question came up along with the
enfranchisement Of the Indians. The
gamblers and liquor dealers worked
against it and although the voters gave
to the Indians they forgot their
wives and daughters. Equal suffrage

versity of South Dakota at a meeting

Eermillion dispatch.
Prof. Eyerly is well qualified to fill
this important position and comes TO
the university strongly recommended.
lie is at present professor of econ
omics and sociology at Massachusetts
agricultural college at Amherst, where
ne has had remarkable success both in
his work and in his dealings with the
student body. He has received schol-
astic degrees from Franklin and Mar
shall college, and from Yale univer-
sity. Later he spent several years in
.tudy in some of the leading univer-
stiles of Germany. Returning to this
country he took special work in his
line at the University of Chicago.
That Prof. Eyerly is well fitted for
the work to which he has been elected
is shown by the fact that he is in
timately acquainted with educational
problems of South Dakota, having
served at n time as acting president
of Redfeld college and later holding
a professorship at Yankton college.
His last teaching experience in South
Dakota was at the State College at

1896 the amendment was submitted

followed by the announcement that it
was doubtful. The returns from three
large counties opposed were held back,
and the final decision was the loss of
the amendment by only 3.2S5 votes.
