The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1914-04-20

ohN ~ 5uLDt1lhCE loudHs ever,
opening with a high wind from the
coats a necessity.
Madison has one of the poorest, if
not the poorest, high school build
ings in the state. 1t should be a
matter of civic pride to our citizens
to provide a good building, especially
when it is so urgently needed. Else
where will be found a table showing
equipment of a few nearby towns,
enrolment of high school, etc. Read
it for your information.
Hans Urdahl spent the day in
Sioux Falls, attorney for the drys in
the Wentworth saloon license case
wherein it is alleged that petition
for submitting the question of IL
to the voters is not signed by
a sufficient number of freeholders.
Register of Deeds j. l.. Sunde accom-
panied Mr.. Urdahl to Sioux Falls
to appear as a witness in the case.
Some of the chronic knockers are
making much of the fact that some
of the lower grades have to come to
the Central building for their man
ual training and domestic science,
and that some of them have to cross
the tracks. So it is argued that this
work should be maintained in the
grade buildings. If we had t he
room (Which we have not), what
would it cost for the extra neces-
sary equipment and teachers for
this work?
Geo. Dahl of Bryant writes his
father, j. j. Dahl, of this city, that
Father Murphy lectured in that
place Saturday evening to a large
audience, creating much interest in
the temperance cause. The audi
ence was highly pleased, and Mr..
Dahl states in his letter that Madi-
son people should not fail to hear
Father Murphy who will close the
prohibition campaign in this city by
a lecture at the opera house this We
ming.
The funeral of the late VIM. Kali
ser, who committed suicide on the
farm of his grandson, Emil Abra-
ham, nea Ramona, was held Satur-
DAY and the remains buried in
Graceland cemetery. Mr.. Abraham
of this city calls attention to the
fact that the old gentleman had not
btth at lut HoIllG VI HIS SIdluSOH d
day or two as has been stated. He
left Madison on the day that he took
his own life, going by train to RAJ
mona, where he purchased Irvine for
the purpose, and walking to the
farm of his grandson hung himself
to a tree in a grove without the
knowledge of the family that he was
anywhere in the neighborhood.
Mitchell Republican, Speaking un-
| der the most unfavorable conditions,
while a terrific wind filled the air
with dirt, Father Patrick j. Murphy.
of Oalhart, Texas, kept a crowd of
/ over 500 people interested for an
hour and twenty minutes on the
street Friday night. 1t was the big
| meeting of the dry" campaign be-
ing waged in this city, with a view
to closing the saloons at the cleo
ton Tuesday. Father Murphy is a
scholar n a most convincing
| speaker who delivers telling blows
for the temperance cause, making it
| plain that he is not the enemy of
the salo~on-keeper, but rather the en-
| envy of his business.
