THE BIG FAIR
IS HISTORY
The Indian Fair was a Crane
Success in Every Respect.

The Agricultural Fair held at the
Sisseton Agency proved to be the
best and most successful ever held
here. Altho the weather has been
very unfavorable the attendance
was good. One OF the main attrac
tions was the aeroplane, which
made splendid and successful
flight each afternoon.
The grain and vegetable exhibits
were beyond the expectations of all ,
i'll fact better than has ever been
shown at any fair held i'll this sec
ticn of South Dakota or western
NJ Minnesota. MI. Kirk, of the
Agency staff, leaves today for Hur
on to place the exhibits at the state
fair which will be held next week
The baby show was another at
tractivc place, not only for the
ladies but the men as we'll. There
were fifteen babies entered. Bea
trice SHEPPARD won first prize with
I9S.5 points, Christian Eastman
second with 97.5 points Raymond
Wynde and Christian Gill tied for
third place with 9o,5 points.
The school exhibits were excel
liant from primary class up to the
I higest grades. The work OF the
manual training class, caused
pleasing comment from all. Their
exhibit was complete library set
table, chairs, stands, etc. The
handicraft work bv the girls was
also fine.

ent speakers, Tuesday by John ID.

a lot of credit for their good worl
among the Indians, and the ex
hibits shown at this fair proves tina
their work is bearing fruits OF thei
labors as all exhibits were put o,
by the Indians.

Motor Trucks for the Russians.

Twenty Hat cars, each contain
ing two large boxes of motor
trucks, passed through Hanllin-
son ON the 500 last week. The
shipment was made by one of
the best known manufacturers
of motcr trucks in the east and
was consigned to Vancouver for
expectation.
The ultimate destination of
the shipment was Nladivostok as
was evidenced by conspicuous
markings ON each large packing
case. This is one of the largest
conSignmentS of war materials
to Russia that has passed thru
Hankinson and was valued at
several hundred thousands of
dollars.
At the present rate of the
Russian retreat it would not be
surprising to see these same
motor cars pass through Hank
inson again within a short time,
loaded with Russians and hotly
pursued by Kaiser Wilhelm S
minions of war, !" says the Hank
inSon News.

DR.. GLASIER
IS SHOT UP
Newspapers Around County
Have Outside Views.

A couple of weeks ago DR..
Glasier and Robert Lowery We're
pulled for shooting chickens out
of season, were brought before
Justice Smith of Wilmot, and
the date of the trial was set for
Sept L. The boys decided to
plead guilty, and went down to
see the squire. The squire gave
the boys a nice talk, on his be-
ing Justice of the Peace, b'gosh,
for over thirty years and had
never given anyone the limit
either going or coming, but al
ways split the difference. After
studying the complaint, calling
up the States Attorney, Judge
decided the best he could do was
fine the boys s. for just darned
cussedness, but as he had never
given anyone the limit, the best
he could do was S4.75. That is
the Sisseton story. The follow
ing is the Milbank News story.
''Dr. w. 7. Glasier of Sisseton
and Robert Lowery farmer re-
siding just west of thatcity We're
arrested Tuesday on charge of
hunting out of season They
We're taken before Justice Smith
at Wilmot Tuesday afternoon
and the date of the trial was fix
ed for Wednesday, Sept. /.
1t seems that States Attorney
JorgenSon was returning from a
trip into the country Sunday
afternoon when he met DR.. GlaS-
ier driving to Lowery's S with a
dog and gun. Jorgenson then
drove into Sisseton and Secured
the services of Deputy Sheriff
Minder. Together they went to
the Lowery farm and hid in Il
corn field to await the lawbreall
ers.
Deputy Game Warden Lock-
Lockhart of this city was notified
OF the affair Monday and swore
out papers against the offenders.
The Roberts county officials
are to be congratulated upon
their persistence in enforcing a
strict observance of law and or
der in their county"
And then comes the Wilmot
Republican, printed right in the
city of the Mill of Justice
"Dr. w. F.. Glasier and Ro oert
Lowery, both of Sisseton, were
arrested last week on a charge
of shooting prairie chickens out
of season. They We're brought
to this city and taken before
Justice Smith, and the date Of
the trial was set for September
/. Later, it seems, that thela
breakers did not think it adviS-
able to stand trial and on Mon
day, August 80, came down from
Sisseton and appeared before
Justice Smith and entered a plea
of guilty The doctor however,
assured the justice that he was
not guilty, and that the contents
of the gunny sack, which it is
charged were chickens, was
simply his surgical Instruments
and that he was out on a call.
We have heard of horse doctors
carrying their Sugical inStru
mentS in a gunny- sack, but this
is the first time we ever heard
of q physician using burlap
bag for the purpose.
1t is also rumored that Depu
ty Sheriff George Minder, who
made an examination of the con
tents OF the sack says. these in
struments had growth o
feathers on them.

Elections Upset Everything, Nearly,
Especially In Northern New Jersey
Supervising Principal Stark, of the Hackensack Pub
lie Schools, Goes DolOn to Defeat in Election of
Opposing Board, and the Democrats of Hoboken
Grab Ne1v Commission Government Bodily.

The elections of the present week
brought many surprises in all direct
ions. Over in Hackensack, the big
surprise came in the overthrow of
Supervising Principal, DR.. Stark, of
the Public School system. The new
Board of Education is dead against
him, which insures his defeat when
that body chooses a new superinten-
dent soon. The first public recogni-
ton that things were not just easy
for DR.. Stark came not long ago when
at a meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation, a motion asking his resigna-
ton was introduced, and he was just
saved by the president of the board
voting against the motion on a tie.
Then the new members to be chosen
last Tuesday were instructed on the
question of their choice for the head
of the schools, so the side won out
will down DR.. Stark. DR.. Stark is re-
garded as one of the foremost educat-
ors in New Jersey, and his overthrow
comes as a great surprise to his ad-
mirers both at home and over the
State. One of the peculiar things
about this result at Hackensack is
that the women were allowed to vote,
and though DR.. Stark commanded the
unitd support of the suffragists, they
went down in the melee good and hard.
