Wentworth Loses First Basket
Ball Game to Independence
High School.

The fast Independence High
School basket ball team proved
too much for the cadets Tuesday
night in their first game of the
season. The game was fast
throughout and proved a most
interesting contest to the spec
tators. The first half resulted
in a tie score, ID to ID. In the
second half the independence
boys got more accustomed to the
court, soon took the lead and
held it to the close. Final score
"a to 35 in favor of the visitors.

The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1915-08-12

G. G. Wenzlaff, president Of the
Springfield State Normal School,
at Springfield, gives the following
interesting account of the work be-
ing done at that institution
"The instruction is done by a
faculty of twenty teachers, each q
specialist in his department. The
advanced students do their prac-
tice teaching in the so called Mo-
del school, which is conducted on
the most approved methods. The
school maintains domestic science
and art rooms, manual training
shop, physical, biological and ZOO
logical laboratories, a spacious and
we'll equipped gymnasium, and a
we'll selected library of more than
5000 volumes.
instruction is also given in mu-
sic-vocal, piano and violin-and
in the commercial branches, such
as shorthand, typewriting aud pen
manship. The location of the
school is, in many ways, ideal.
The students like the scenery,
which is beautiful and inspiring.
The city is small and hence the
State Normal School is a promin-
ent feature here, and the students
are impressed with the Importance
of education.
This summer some important
Improvements are being made on
the grounds. A new we'll is being
sunk and equipped. The plans Of
the landscape architect, who came
here few seasons ago from Min
neapolis, are being worked out
with regard to the grading, walks,
driveways and planting. Within
q year, doubtless, the already beau
tiful campus of the school will see
marked changes for the better.
II was said that this is a growing
institution. So it is. Beginning
with 1908 and closing with the
school year just ended, the total
enrolment each year was as fol.
lows, not including,of course, the
pupils of the Model School: 80,
12l, 1877, 1so, 1856, 100, 2O5 and
254. In other words, during the
last seven years the attendance has
almost trebled; likewise, the equip.
ments, apparatus, and machinery
have been trebled in the same
period.

Bids are being received at the
Cheyenne River Agency, for the
sale of a large tract of government
land. Bids will be opened Aug. Is.
Some OF the land is adapted to
agricultural purposes, but much of
it is good only for grazing. The
prices will range from Sc to SIS
per acre for agricultural land, and
from $4to $3.50 for grazing land.
The terms will be 2596 cash and
the balance in three equal install
ments due in two, four and six
years with interest at go. This is
ali opportunity to get cheap land
without the necessity Of living up.
on it and if one wishes to engage
in stock raising it will probably
be a good Investment.

A semi.oficial report of the third
census OF South Dakota has just
been issued, and while subject to
some changes is approximately
correct. The footinga show the
present population Of the state 10
be SIS, ,538, which is a loss since
1910 Of 1850. A few counties in
the north part of the state, east Of
the Missouri river, show small
losses, but the greatest loss comes
from the counties west of the river.
The territory formerly included in
Stanley county, now comprising
the counties Of Stanley, Jackson
and Haaken, show the biggest loss,
being 7,115. The losses are lar
geJy due to the fact that the last
census was taken soon after the
land in the western part of the
state was settled following the pro-
lection of the railroads to the
Black Hills, and the country was
full of homesteaders, many Of
whom were simply holding the
land to get title to it and did not
intend ia make it their permanent
home. In the older portions Of
the state the counties nearly all
show healthy growth. In the
western portion the land which was
abandoned is now being purchased
by actual settlers, and the deticlen-
cy in population in population will
be soon be made up.

A society has been formed in
Holland to propagate change in
the constitution taking from the
monarch the power to declare war,
to declare peace and to make trea-
ties; and place that authority with
the representatives of the people.
There probably isn't monarchy
in Europe where this power is less
likely to be abused by monarch
than in Holland, but the movement
shows the trend of sentiment. We
apprehend that after the present
war is over there will be several
monarchies that will follow this ex
ample.

A dispatch from Mellstte says
that hundreds Of members of the
I. W. W. fraternity passe i through
that place last week going toward
Aberdeen. They decorated the
windows Of the business places in
town with stickers demanding
higher wages, shorter hours and
better food. Aberdeen had her ex-
perience with this worthless bunch
last year and will probably be pre-
pared tc give them an appropriate
reception.

Under the direction of the
bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce this country is prepar-
ing to send out a flying squadron
of commercial scouts to investigate
the opportunities for extending
American trade to foreign coun-
tries. Representatives of various
lines will be sent to the countries
of South America, Africa, Australia
China and other countries hereto.
fore supplied from European coun.
tries. It is expected that year
will be required to gather this in.
formation, and in the meantime
commercial institutions in this
country be consulted, and urged to
prepare for the expected in
crease in foreign trade. The pos
sibilities are probably worth the
effort, but it is well to remembe,
that it is dollars and not sentiment
that must be relied upon to hold
such a trade. After the European
war is over there will be a surplus
of cheap labor in the European
countries, and the question will bt
whether this country with its high.
or standard of wages, can compete
with the product Of this cheap Ia
Dor.

The total product Of wool mar
keted at Belle Fourche this season
was /, ,45O, 900 pounds. The price
ranged from 2lEc to 2ec, with an
average Of 25c. This is about 7ac
more than last year. Owing to the
heavy rains this year the wool
was cleaner and did not weigh
as heavy as usual, but the lncreas-
ed price more than makes up for
this difference.
