1.-THE adjutant general state of Ida
no, Boise, Idaho.
my dear general: With reference
to the recent issue of the Official Bull
letin published by the National Guard
of the state of Idaho, I desire to say
that / sincerely appreciate your as
surance that this issue of the Bulletin
was prepared and distributed without
having been seen either by yourself or
by those officers subject to your or
ders who are primarily responsible for
the instruction of the Guard
IT am glad TO be assured also that
the unfortunate expressions in the
Bulletin do not express the views en-
tertained by yourself or by the Of
ficers of the National Guard as a
whole. and that these expressions did
not originate with any one connected
with our Guard, but were copied large
ly from an editorial appearing in the
Army and Navy Journal, and in part
from other sources.
II am greatly relieved to know the
facts in this case Our National Guard
in order to be worthy of its name must
be absolutely loyal not only to the
chief executive of this state, but also
the chief executive of the nation, and
have never heretofore had the slight
est occasion to doubt that this Is the
condition which actually obtains.
THE Bulletin in question is supposed
to contain military and social notes
pertaining to the Guard of this and
other states. 1t is in no sense a news
paper and those who prepare the same
for publication must not feel at lib
erty to comment therein upon the ac-
lions of their official superiors. either
state or federal.
81 desire you personally to take such
steps as will insure us against a fur
ther mistake of this nature and direct
that this letter be published in gem
eral orders to the Guard in order that
the Objectionable sentiments may be

been concluded in Mexico, is the
place local officials assert will mark
the end of the Huerta regime
The probability that the final battle
of the present revolution will be fought
at Queretaro instead of Mexico City,
it is thought by constitutionalists
would be hailed with delight by for
eign nations whose citizens are nu-

Prepare for Final Struggle.
While the immediate troop move
ments of the constitutionalists will not
be hurried. they will not be delayed,
according to local authorities. Prepa-
rations for the final struggle at Quere-
taro began yesterday when Colonel
Perez Romero, a brother of Sonora
Madero. wife of the former president,
was ordered to proceed with strong
force from Tuxpan on the gulf coast
to the state of Queretaro.
General Candida Aguilar, In COM
mend at Tuxpan and a trusted con-
stitutionalist commander, has been or
dered to lead the larger portion Of his
5000 troops to the vicinity of Vera
Cruz with the object it is said, of
preventing the troops Of General Gar
ella Pena and Rubio Navarrette, now
facing the American forces at Vera
Cruz. from reaching the battlefield at
Queretaro or of returning to the CAPT
tai to offer resistance at that point.
Developments in the military situa-
ton in Mexico within the last few
days have made 1t possible for the
constitutionalists to concentrate ire
mendous force at Queretaro. With

FREEZES TO A

Sunday morning l.. j. Fjerstad was
found dead upon the floor of his home
in east Brookings. death having come
from freezing. Fjerstad had not been
seen since the previous Friday morn
ing and a neighbor s%uspecting that
something was wrong made the grue-
some discovery.
The body was laying face downward
on the floor and was frozen stiff. 1t
was only partially clad and on n
foot was a shoe and an overshoe. 1t
is thought that Fjerstad arose Satur-
day morning and started to dress to go
out and get coal for the fire, as there
was no fuel in the house. Where the
snow sifted in under the door the
track of his foot was seen, but there
was no mark outside on the porch and
it is probable that he opened the door
and noting the storm outside decided
not to get the coal. 1t is evident that
he then sat down on a chair a the
table and being either numbed by the
cold or in some other condition in
which he had no control Of himself, he
fell forward, pulling the chair with
him. This movement knocked a lamp
from the nearby table and it is pre-
sumed that it was daylight as it vas
not lighted. The weather was in
tensely cold, the thermometer register
ing nearly thirty below zero that morn
ing, SO that death was not long in COM
ing to him. There was a half emptied
whiskey bottle on the table and other
evidences about the room that makes
this case a good temperance lesson.
The inquest was held Monday after
noon before Justice Grover, who acted
in the absence of the coroner. The
decision was that Fjerstad had came
to his death by freezing, there being
no evidence to show that his death
was due to any other cause.
Mrs. Fjerstad and the children, who
are living near hendricks, came GOWN
Tuesday morning to claim the body of
the husband and father. The remains
will be inferred in the Sterling Gene
terry today.
Fjerstad formerly lived north of
town, but two or three years ago NOV.
ed to a farm near Hendricks. About
a year ago he came to Brookings and
had since lived in a house he owned
in east Bookings, but the family re-
manned on the farm. He was at one
time comfortably off and probably had
some property left, although he I'M
doubtedly had spent considerable of it
the last few years. He was a man
about fifty years old.

DEATH OF S. II. BANNER

Samuel ii. Danner passed away at
the home of his daughter, Mrs. G.. II.
Soule last Thursday morning. Mr..
banners death was due to injuries
which he received in a fall down stairs
the previous evening.
Funeral services were held at the
home on Thursday afternoon in charge
of DR., Horace w. Tilden of the Baptist
church, who preached a splendid ser.
mon The remains were taken to the
old home at Turton for interment on
Friday.
Mr.. banner was born in the famous
Shenandoah Valley of Virginia May
25, 1928, being Sc years, nine months
and nineteen days old at the time of
his death. He was of thrifty German
stock, his grandfather having came to
Virginia with ten stalwart sons in the
early part of the last century. AS a
young man Mr.. Danner got the west
ern fever and went to Ohio and from
there to Illinois. In 1852 he was mar
ried to Elizabeth Ann Marshall, who
passed away eleven years ago. Eight
children were born to them, Of whom
five are now living. They are: Mrs.
Reed Matheny, Mrs. J. X. Fridley and
Mrs. G. II. Soule of Bookings, Mrs.
Oliver McPherren of Albany, Oregon.
and M. H. Banner of Turton.
In 1862 Mr.. Danner enlisted in the
1O2nd Illinois Volunteers and served
nearly a year, being h%onorably dis
charged on account of i'll health, and
when he left the service he was d
commissioned officer. In 1883 Mr..
Danner moved his family to Turton,
s.. D., where he was one Of the
pioneers and where he made his home
until coming to Brookings three years
ago to live with his daughter, Mrs.
Soule.
Since coming to Bookings Mr..
banners health had been poorly, but
until recently he retained his mental
faculties in spite of advancing age. Mr..
Banner was a just man, firm in his
beliefs and lived a righteous life be-
cause he believed in the right, and his
memory will be cherished by all who
knew him.

DEAcoNESS AID ORGANIZES

One of the most influential happen
Methodist Deaconess Association was
the organizing of the Woman's Aid
Society of the Association last Tues
day afternoon.
A representative company from the
city churches and various societies
met in the Commercial Club rooms to
perfect this organization, Mrs. J.. w.
Catlett acting as temporary chairman.
1t was not necessary to quicken the
interest Of those present. All knew
the need of the society. AS their pres
ence testified. A few words as to the
form of organization best suited to
the development Of the work in this
section were given and final ~organiza-
ton was made. The following officers
were elected: President, Mary Alice
Hoover; first vice-president, Mrs. r. A.
Pilmer; third vice-president. Mrs. G. F.
Knappen; recording secretary, Mrs.
J. H. Hubbard; corresponding secre-
tary, Eleanor s. Moore; treasurer, Mae
Austin. Also membership cbairmen
as follows: Mrs. r. A. Larson, Mrs.
Lillian Hinkley, Mrs. o. G. Oyloe, Mrs.
A. S. Harding, Mrs. c. F. Hoffman,
Mrs. A. L. Davis, Mrs. E. A. Lentz and
Gertrude Wykof.
Mrs. ]. P. Alexander was elected
chairman of the library committee.
With characteristic energy she select
ed her helpers and plans for immediate
work, the nurses library and some
more cheering books for the hospital
guests being their first interest.
The election of the chairman of the
other standing committees was delay
ed until the April meeting.
The society will meet quarterly,
holding it's meetings on the first Tues
day of January, April, July, and Oc-
tober. 1t is open to all persons paying
a membership fee of fifty cents an
nually. Invitation is extended to the
women of the country to join.
That the Dakota Deaconess Associa-
ton, through it's institution, the Da-
kota D~eaconess Hospital, is meeting
the need of this section is shown by
this interest on the part of the women.
That other needs shall arise as the
city and country develops is equally
manifest. That the will be
ready to cooperate with the board of
managers, or as is so often true, lead
the way into new and wider paths of
service, is very certain.

REAL EATHER

The past week has been the coolest
of the winter and one of the coolest
periods in several years. The cold
weather started on Wednesday of last
week and it was snowy and blowy the
balance of the week, with the Their
mometer below zero most of the time.
This week has not been much of an
improvement and there has been quite
a little snow. The agronomy depart
of the college has kindly furnish
ed us with the official thermometer
readings of the week, as follows:
Thursday, 8 below zero; Friday, IA
below; Saturday, 20 below; Sunday,
2S below; Monday. 20 below; Tuesday,
4 below; Wednesday. IL below. This
morning thermometers around town
reported from IL to IA below.

FAIR MEETING SATURDAY

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Brookings County Fair
Association will be held at the assem-
bly, room of the city hall next Satur-
day afternoon. At this time will oc-
cur the annual election of officers for
the coming year and the meeting
should be attended by every stock
holder, as the officers make or unmake
the fair. President Rudolph informs
the Register he will not again be a
candidate under any circumstances
and the association will have to look
about to find a worthy successor. We
have heard the names of G. N. Ken
nard and Fred Killing mentioned and
there are no doubt others fully capable
of handling the affairs of the associa-
ton in good shape. 1t would be hard
to choose between Mr.. Killing and Mr..
Kennard, who are representative farm
ers and good business men and have
as directors carried much of the bur
den of the county fair work. We
understand that II. f. Riley is not at
all anxious for another term as secre-
tary, but those who have the best in
terests of the association at heart are
going to make an effort to have him
accept the position for another year.
He did well in his first year and with
this experience he should be better
than almost any nan the association
could select. II you are a stakeholder
in the association you should be inter
ested in the welfare Of the county fair,
so come out Saturday and help pick
the best men to carry on the good
work.

COUNTY is PROSPEROUS

The January statements of the con-
dition of the banks in the city of
Brookings and in other towns in the
county show that financial affairs in
this section are very satisfactory and
that the past year has been quite a
prosperous one. The three banks of
this city, with a combined capital OF
$4,000, have on deposit the sum of
1 ,750, 900, a gain of about $500, 900
over the previous year The total de.
posits in the ten banks in the other
towns in the county amount to $1,115,-
900, making a total of S2,865, 900 for
Brookings county, or about 1904 per
capita. Much of this money is on time
deposit, which is a favorite indication
of the condition of affairs.
