LY ATTENDED LAST
EVENING.

The meeting at the park last even
ing was largely attended and those
present were deeply interested i'm the
services. The seating space will ac-
commodate SIS people. This space
was not only occupied, but probably
as many more people were within
hearing in automobiles and seated on
the grass or standing in group I'M
der the trees. Prof. Spears orchestra
rendered splendid help with the
music and was very much appre-
ciated. Evangelist Rev. j. C.. Lud-

work in New York City, where for
three years he conducted evangelistic
meetings. The meetings will con-

STATE DRUGGISTS
-FOUR DAYS ANNUAL CONVEN-
TION TO OPEN AT LAKE MAD
ISON TOMORROW.

The thirtieth annual convention of
the South Dakota Pharmaceutical as
ISOLATION will open at Lake Madison
tomorrow and continue four days.
This is probably the largest and most
prosperous business association in the
state and during its long existence
has become sufficiently organized
that its annual meetings are a source
of business precision and social en-
joyment that are profitable and at
tractive. The attendance is always
large and it is expected that several
hundred druggists and their ladies
will be in attendance at the Lake
Madison meeting.
Following is a list of the officers
of the association:

WESTERN LANDS
Indian Department Opens Sale ON
Large Tract Near Cheyenne
Agency.

Cheyenne River Agency, Aug. o.
Bids will be opened August Is at the
Cheyenne River Agency on a large
tract of land the Indian department
has offered for sale. The terms of
sale will be most liberal and the
prices will be considerably below
those of previous sales, it is said.
Part of the tract is grazing lands.
while much of it is as fine farming
land as car be found. However, the
prices will range from Sc to SIS, and
the grazing land will sell from 81 to
$3.50 per acre. For the person that
would like to take a homestead, but
does not have the time to bother with
it, this opportunity should not be
passed up, as he can secure his
homestead" in this way and, i'm the
long run, will not be out as much
money as IL he filed under the home
stead laws and proved up, since he
does not have to live on the land or
improve 1t in any way. The terms of
sale are very liberal, being 25 per
cent down and the balance in three
equal payments, payable two, four
and six years, with interest at the
rate of 6 per cent.

tation for supplying successful teach
ers TO the schools of the state. This
year there were graduated from the
institution ninety-seven teachers full
ly prepared to teach in the schools of
South Dakota, having had careful
training and actual experience in
the model school connected with the
Normal. These teachers are present
ed by the state of South Dakota with
certificates TO teach in the state, first
or second grade certificates or state
certificates according to the course
they have taken. Such certificates
are given without examination by the
state, on the showing of scholarship
and ability as teachers made during
their work in the school.
Conditions for young people who
come from a distance to take instruc-
ton at the Madison Normal are ideal.
The town has a high moral tone and
the people are of the highest class,
having come here largely that their
children might profit by the excellent
school facilities.
The city schools are justly cele-
VI as oAhoA6 A0 O0Gt III ~ WY
of this class in the state. The high
school is on the university accredited
list.
The city has let the contract for a
new $4,000 school building. There
are ward schools besides the high
school.
The state has appropriated $4,000
for a new training school building al
the Normal, which will be erected
early in 1916.
Business, church, school and social
facilities are of the best and when to
these are added the splendid summer
resort that the lakes afford. and the
Lake Madison chautauqua, held every
year in June and July, no question
remains that this is one Of the best
places for any man to locate, engage
in business and rear a family, that
can be found in the state.

The citizens of Madison will give
the druggists and their ladies a cor
dial welcome, the Commercial club
having already shown their apprecia-
ton OF their presence by providing
gold plated souvenir badges for their
use. The vanguard of the conven-
ton members commenced arriving to-
day, among them Sec'y K. C. Bent of
Dell Rapids, the live wire of the asso-
citation, who is the busiest official in
the bunch during the convention SEES
sions besides he finds plenty of time
TO enjoy the annual outing and help
others enjoy it,.
Preliminary TO the convention
Sec'y Bent issued a program in pam
phlet form comprising sixty-three
pages, detailing all the business to
be transacted, competitive events and
social functions of the annual meet
ing, enabling the members to have
an easy guide to all that is in store
for them. Contained in this program

l%ation, is the following reference to
Madison which will be of value to the
city in all the years to
The White Spot.
In financial maps of the United
States shaded from black TO white to
show excellence of business condi-
tions, there is just one white spot,
one place where business conditions
are perfect. 1t is not a large spot.
Madison, South Dakota, is in the cen
ter of it.
That means that this town of
1000 population surrounded by a
wealthy, thickly settled farming COM
munity is the best place in the United
States in which to settle and operate
any kind of business that is suitable
to the locality.
Finest Lake in South Dakota.
That is not the only advantage
Madison has to offer. The finest lake
in South Dakota, nine miles long and
two miles wide, where fishing, boat
ing, bathing and camping delights OF
all kinds are at their best, is now be-
ing recognized as the premier sum-
mer resort of the state.
There is variety along the shore
line of twenty-five miles to suit the
taste of all. Smooth, pebbly beaches.
steep banks, grassy slopes or heavily
wooded margin, all are here. There
is not a place on the lake where you
can't fish from the banks and have an
exciting time hauling in your catch.
For the skilled fisherman there are
plenty of black bass to be found in
their special habitat and in no year
have SO many been. taken out as this
year. They are fine, large gamey fell
lows and will give you all you want
to do to land them.

for desiring to better his condition and
the condition OF those dependent upon
him.
An unfortunate time was chosen for
the battle OF principle. for industrial.
financial and commercial conditions in
Colorado We're dull. there were many
unemployed, and indications were that
work would become scarcer.
The mine owners, men OF large expe-
,rience in affairs, naturally did not de-
'sire to make hard times worse by en-
gagng in fighting a strike Nor wa, a
strike desired in any sense by the rail
roads, whose remaining prosperity de-
pended upon the normal continuation of
the coal business: nor did the banks. or
the greater or smaller commercial in.
terests desire n strike: and it should he
said in fairness. neither did any politi-
clans OF good standing to whom a strike
was likely to prove no more desirable
possession than bag of snakes; and
many of the miners themselves opposed
a strike. Yet the strike was called.
Lack of Organization the Fault.
.'And then an accident OF the most de.
plorable and pitiful kind. due to the in
tent Of no human being IN the world
occurred; a tent town burned mp during
battle, women and children were either
killed or suffocated-and the reputation
of Colorado was blackcned. as was that
OF men who chanccd to be financially
interested in the mines and for whom no
charitable opinion or Just reason was
possible because OF their wealth The
strike is over. 1t WAS a misfortune for
Colorado from every point OF view. II
was not much the fault of Colorado a.
it was the fault OF the fact that Colo
RADIO was in the only remaining un-
uniOnizcd district.
"Othcr causes than this strike threw
thousands of laborers out OF employment
in Colorado as well as all over the United
States, and it might be well to rcmem.
Der that the richest OF the owners of
Colorado coal mines, due to their better
knowledge of the state so painfully
learned. are at this time creating en-
ployment for many who need it. Calm
reflection will convince anyone that the
labor question is not indigenous or pec,i-
liar to Colorado"

A Great National Question

However. the question is now up to the
nation Shall the ideals of industrial
despotism prevail or shall the demands
OF the workers for justice be hcededf
trust the nation will not be blind to
the necessity of the workers nor heed
less to their pleas and demand for jus
tice.
The outrages perpetrated on the mine
workers OF Colorado are attracting the
sympathy OF all humane citizens OF our
country and arousing sentiment that
bodies i'll to the system Of the Rocke-
fellers and other financial and commer-
cial pirates. This crowd of CONNER.
cial highbinders, through the system. has
committed the most hcinous crimes
even murder-to enslave the wagework-
ers. The slaughter of the defenseless
women and children in Colorado is more
brutal and vicious than the acts com
planned Of by our people in Mexico, and
greater offeHse to the underlying prin.
ciples OF a democratic republican govern
