place the present company has fifty
year franchise with forty more years
to run. This franchise is worth at
present to the privately owned COM

profits. These profits must be TAX

value not only to the operating COM

sion will alter its double barreled de-
cision of some forty days ago, which
practically forces the city to deal

it will merely delay action on the main

TALKS ON THRIFT,
No. 1s.-SAvING FOR A HOME

Thrift and providence are pri-
mary qualities necessary to all
who are to make the most out of
life and it's opportunities. May
or Newton D. Baker, of Cleveland
There have been many plans to
force the habit of thrift upon people
otherwise careless of their savings,
but it is doubtful if any other sys-
tenn excels that which man yolun-
tarily assumes when he decides to &C
quire ownership of his own home by
means of monthly payments, covering
principal and interest of the loan.
So tickle is the human mind that
the only absolute guarantee of carry
ing out good intention is to make
it impossible to violate it, and that is
practically what is done when a man
puts himself in position where he
must keep up certain regular pay
ments or run the risk of losing his
home
Every normally constituted man has
the ambition some time to own the
roof over his head. 1t is the best way
to live.
To accomplish this object, the aver
age man who must depend largely up
on his own efforts, requires energy,
self-reliance and a determination to
overcome all obstacles.
If he starts savings bank account
and makes weekly deposits therein to
the first cash payment

CHAUTAUQUA TOWNS
INFLUENCE OF ESTABLISHED AS
SOCIATIONS WORK FOR THE
PUBLIC GOOD.

1t is exceedingly interesting to note
that the towns which organized as
semblies with the rise of the chau-
tauqua movement a dozen years ago
are without question the most pro-
gressive, wide-awake towns of the
country, not always the bigger, the
noisest, the 'wettest," but always the
eleanest, most enterprising places.
Chautauqua towns are rated highest
In educational advantages. public i'm
provements and utilities, parks, good
roads, willingness to contribute to
good causes and all sorts of a~ltruistic
e~ndeavor, have the most fraternal
and friendly people, are rated lowest
in crime, lawlessness, illiteracy, self
ishness, greed and factional strife.
Churches, fraternal societies and
business men seek to help instead of
to antagoniZe each other. Men and
women are alert for any plan to make
the town better, themselves and their
children more useful and helpful to
others. The chautauqua is a great
social institution. It's possibilities
are far greater than we have yet re-
allied. 1t is a movement not for
money getting, but for your benefit
and pleasure and the upbuilding of
your town and home. 1t is for you,
so it's up to you TO do your small
part to make it successful, bigger and
better. This means: Be a booster,

new RESIDENCES
COMPANY ORGANIZED TO DE-
VELOP WEST FIFTH STREET.

A company has been incorporated
in Madison for the development of
West Fifth street and undertake to
meet the demand for residences in
this city. At the present time new
people are coming into the city and
it seems almost impossible to supply

of development work in the line of
new residences comprises III. III. Fru-
denfeld. president; A. j. Garner, vice
president; f. J. Mundt. secretary; b.
Il. Ketcham, treasurer; JOS. Henkin.
The company owns and controls six
ty-five lots in West Fifth street and
propose to build at least ten houses
this year. Trees will be planted in
the locality, water carried to the
lots at the expense of the COM
pany. and electric lights provided in
order that all the new houses may be
provided with modern co~nveniences.

LANDED IN T.
Cecil Small, Partner of Convicted
Gang Chief, Draws Three Years
For Completely.

Sioux Falls, May 4.-Gregory
county officers have landed in the
Sioux Falls penitentiary Cecil Small,
who was sentenced to a term of three
years for completely in one of the
boldest cattle rustling raids made in
the state for years. Cyrus Delaney,
convicted by a jury of the same of
Tense. would have been sentenced
with Small, but disappeared after be-
ing released on bond. As soon as his
absence was noted the officers COM
menced a search for him. Several
other defendants, who are alleged to
have been implicated in the same
crime, are to be tried during the adj
journed term of court to be held in
June, the exact date for the conven-
ing not yet having been fixed.
The two men who were convicted,
and those yet to be tried, are charged
with having been responsible for the
theft of twenty-seven head of cattle
from a Gregory county homesteader.
The animals, after being held for a
time on a certain homestead, were
shipped by the thieves to Sioux City,
where inspectors discovered that they
had been stolen, and the arrest of the
alleged gang of cattle "rustlers" fol
lowed.

INDIAN RIGHTS


Pierre. May 4.-Citizens' rights
for Indians on the Cheyenne river In
dian reservation is the outlook of an
investigation which is being made by
Maj. Mclaughlin and Supervisor
Traceray. of the Indian department.
The rights and civic duties of Indians
in the newer counties of the ''reser-
walton" section of the state have been
the cause of many disputes, as to
school rights and duties of maintain
ing civil government. Apparently,
many of the Indians have progressed
sufficiently that they are fully ca
pable of managing their own bust
ness affairs without being managed
as wards of the government, and
where the showing is sufficient to
satisfy the inspectors, citizens rights
will be given, and to such Indians
there will be no further disputes as
to titles TO their real property, nor
the rights of their children to attend
the public schools of that part of the
state.

playing that Of Sigurd but he
did exceptionally we'll. Dinnie
Mann was not given much Of
"a chance to show his talent cn

part, but he made the most of

also had a hard part. She was
Louvisa, the old witch. The part

an actress who was living up to
her reputation. Britta, the maid,
was we'll acted by Beulah Forbes.
Her part brought on the smiles
each time she appeared. 1t is
difficult to say who did the best
and it was by far better than
many road plays seen here. It,

Biggest Crops
Since Year 1882
Barley, Rye and Wheat are Be-
ing Harvested Under Favor
II able Weather

Old settlers, who have seen
good crops and failures, say
that the harvest this year will
be the best since 1882. The
shocks Of grain in the fields
are close together which shows
the thickness of the grain.
A drive in the country over
the roads beside the big fields
is more enjoyable this year than
ever. The grain is high and the
weeds have been cut along the
edges Of the fields and along
the road.
Three binders began cutting
bronze grass on the Hans Hult-
berg farm last week and Peter
Larson began harvesting his
this week. The cutting Of wheat
was begun on the Ole Everson
farm Tuesday. The. splendid
field Of wheat on the Sam Mus
son farm will soon be ready for
cutting. One Of the best corn
fields near town is that belong
ing to Peter Larson.
Only a few who are harvest
ing have been mentioned but the
work is general and big yields
are expected everywhere.
