that Waller is not entitled to any certi-
icate under the provisions of chapter

THOS. THORSON

Thomas Thorson who passed away
last week, was n Of the leading citi-
zens of South Dakota, residing at Can

office of president of the First National
bank. He was born in Norway on No
vember 14th, 184S. In 1854 at the age

in northeastern Iowa, where his father
became numbered among the pioneer
farmers, taking up government lane
near the town of McGregor. There he
availed himself of the public schools,
continuing to assist his father in the
work and management of the home
farm until 1869, when he secured a pos
ition as clerk in a hardware establish
ment at Sioux City, Iowa. In 1871 he
removed to Beloit, Iowa, where he
opened the first store in the county,
building up a successful general mer-
chandise business and becoming one
of the influential citizens of that sec
ton. In the autumn of 1871 and in
1874 he was elected county auditor.
After the expiration of his term in this
office, in 1875, he accepted a position
as travelling representative of the
Sioux City Journal and continued in
that line of work for the ensuing six
years. In 1881 he located at Canton,
S. d., and engaged in the real estate
business, doing much to further the de-
velopment and settlement of that sec
ton and having ever since continued
to be prominently identified with this
important line of enterprise. He be-
came the owner of much valuable city
realty and farming and grazing land.
He al once identified himself intimate

ministration and being chosen as his
own successor in 1894, on which oc-

THE MEAN MAN

The meanest man ever has at last
been discovered. The Day county man
who put in a claim to the commission
ers for conveying his old father to
the poor house has lost caste as the
meanest man. The new specimen has
been discovered up in Codington coun
a splendid income from pulling auto
mobiles out of a mud hole near his
place. The nice weather came along
and the roads dried up, but the mud
hole remained and the farmer went
right on gathering in the shekels. The
eternal freshness Of that mud hole re-
NAMED a mystery until a contractor
from Henry went out that way and got
stuck. The Farmer pulled him out and
exacted the usual fee. The contractor
became suspicious and set out to see
what was the matter. Under the v
of twilight he approached the place,
and shortly after night had cast her
protecting mantle on the neighborhood
he saw the farmer driving a tank
wagon, and with the help of his two
O n emptied the tank and left as nice
a mudhole as any self respecting
motorist would wish to keep out Of.
The contractor then made his pres
ence known, and Mr.. Farmer was glad
enough to cough up and return his fee
and promise to fill the hole with gravel
and keep it in good repair. That con-
tractor Is entitled to the thanks Of
every motorist that was in the habit of
travelling that way.-vermillion Repub-

RICHARDS FILES HIS BRIEF

Printed briefs have just been filed in
the state supreme court in the case of
State ex rel VS.. the auditor of Beadle
county on the appeal from the decision
Of Circuit Judge Taylor in which he
held that the Legislature has power to
repeal a law enacted by a district vote
of the people, says a Huron dispatch.
South Dakota was the Grst state in
the union to adopt the initiative and
referendum, and also the Richards idea
of political government which provides
for independent and minority and ma
jority representation, az openly de-
bated proposals of men and measures
in party primaries. The adoption of
these two measures represents a quar-
ter of a century of political struggles
in South Dakota. Their history is al
most continual conflict between the
people and oficialdom.
The initiative and referendum was
first introduced by n Rev. Father
HARE of Aberdeen, and adopted in the
resolutions of the Knights of Labor
and the Farmers Alliance at a point
state meeting at Columbia, in 1884.
After fourteen years of continuous
agitation and discussion, the principle
was finally adopted. 1t remained dor
mant, however, until the Richards pri-
mary petition was circulated in fall of
1904 and presented with twice the re-
quired number of signatures to the
legislature of 1905, which Legislature
fatty refused the people their consti-
tutional right, by declining to submit
the same to a vote of the people.
After two unsuccessful attempts in
the legislature, the Richards primary
law petition re-appeared in the fall
of 1910; submitted to the legislature
in 1911; voted upon in November cleo
ton in 1912 and carried two to one.
The repeal was brought by a substi-
tute called the Coffey primary law was
voted on in November, 1914, but the
Richards law was again sustained by
a good majority. Nevertheless the
1915 legislature Immediately repealed
the Richards law and passed a substi.
tute.

spring. Seed of good vitality was
planted on certain fields. The cold
rains came and beat upon the young
corn, then came a blackening frost
about June 5. AS If that were not
enough it hailed June s. There was
not enough corr left above ground to
look sick.
But this corn of good vitality had
roots underground, and within three
days after the hail, the green leaves
we're pushing up again. They were
worth more than replanted corn.
At one time the writer planted in"
some missing hills in a certain field.
These hills were marked to secure
their yield in comparison with hills
that came from the first planting. The
replanted ones did not make ears. The
corn yield came from the original
planting.
OF course this is not saying that
one must not plant in" missing hills
they do make some fodder. But re-
planting is more or less of a calamity
at best.
Plant vigorous seed next spring. 1t
will stand many more chances of
growing than weak seed, if conditions
are unfavorable.
Begin now. Wherever an ear of
corn glazes over before frost, pick it
for seed. 1t is the blood of which
crops are made.-By A. N. Hume,
Agronomist and Superintendent of
S~ubstations.
