WHO IS WHO On
STATE BOARD
THREE DIFFERENT AGRlCUlTUR.
AL BOARDS AND NONE HAVE
POWER TO ACT.

There are probably two or three
of the very shrewdest lawyers in
the state who know the situation
with reference to the board of ag-
riculture but there are no laymen
who can solve the problem.
November a year ago the board
was recalled. Conventions were held
in Stillwatet a year ago this month
to elect a new board A division
arose and two boards were elected
One took charge of the affairs and
the other brought proceedings to
oust them. In the meantime the
state did not know which was the
board and did not make payments
of salary and expenses to any. Last
summer this board was recalled and
Governor ClIce appointed a new
board. The reader will have to stop
a while and get this straight. This
last board appointed by the govern
or is the third board clamoring for
control of the affairs which the stat
utes say the board shall preside
over. The last named board got
busy right now. In the midst of
busy year in school they began
to fire out the president and the
teachers and employees and to tear
up things generally. The employees
came into court and obtained an in
junction prohibiting the board from
ousting them from their jobs. The

but incorporate such matters as

In his interview with all who met
him, officials, politicians, Indians and

to Judge Allen as man who in Wag-

of a kind he especially approved of
and of which he would like to see
much more. 1t is understood that he
sent for Judge Allen as soon as he
reached Muskogee and kept him with

invited him to accompany him to Nc

The rector of an eastern church
who spent part of his vacation with
Bishop Diller in South Dakota,
was struck with the transformation
that had taken place. TO one who
remembers the Custer massacre
and the carly days of the mining
camp, it seems that miracle has
been wrought upon red man and
white man alike by the potent,
leavening influence of the Christian
Church. On the spot where, less
than forty years before, occurred
those scenes of violence which re
suited in driving the Indian from
his beloved hills, an eloquent pres
byter OF the Dakota race expound-
ed the wonderful story of the Iro1li-
cal son to congregation of both
white and Indian church people.
Deadwood. notorious for the dis
order and wanton disregard for law
which characterized its early his
tory as q frontier settlement and a
mining camp, has emerged into a
self-respectina city, whose life is
distinguished by the industry, de
cency, and law abiding spirit which
alone can make city life tolerable.
The work in South Dakota will
be an everlasting tribute to those
men of devotion who planted the
broad foundations upon which has
! been reared the fabric of strong

of Cheyenne Agency. SO. Dakota,
who passed away last Friday night,

he was failing, and thus seems
to have been fully prepared for

of the virtues of the Good Judge
and extoling his character and
patriotism, his talk being inter
pretcd into the Sioux language by
Mr.. Luke Gilbert. He was fol

Judge No Heart was a man who

of his friends, he pursued the enc

In 1878 he was made chief of the

he had surrendered, Judge No
Heart was a member of the gov

him, when Sitting Bulls friends

he went with the Indian Agent,

was again with him. And besides
the above, in all the rules and reg
