sHORTAGR OF PAPER
MAKING MATERIAL


The attention Of the Department
Of Commerce ls called, by the presi-
dent OF large paper manufacturing
company. to the fact that there Is
serious shortage OF raw material FOR
the manufacture Of paper including
rags and old papers lie urges that
the Department should make 1t
known that the collecting and saving
Of rags and old papers would greatly
better existing conditions for Ameri-
can manufacturers.
Something like 5000 tons Of DIFF
foront kinds Of paper and paper board
are manufactured every day In the
United states and a large portion of
this after It has served It's purpose
could be used over again In some
class Of paper. A large part Of IT,
however. Is either burned or other
wise wasted. This, Of course, has to
be replaced by new materials. 10 the
oahy history of the paper Industry
publicity was given to the Importance
Of saving rags. It Is Of scarcely less
Importance now The Department Of
Commerce Is glad ID bring this mat
Tor to the attention of the public In
The hope that practical results may
flow from &c. a little attention to the
saving of rags and old papers VIII
mean genuine relief to our paper In
dustry and diminishing drain upon
our sources Of supply for new ma
tcrials.
A list OF dealers In paper stocks
can be obtained from the local cham
ber Of Commerce or Board Of Trade.

WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE Assoc
GATED PRESS.

New York, May Especial:
Comparative calm prevails on the
western front in France. notably in
the region OF Verdun. which for
weeks has been the theater of the
most sanguinary conflicts of the war.
The French, however, have been able
TO capture portions Of a German
trench on the west slopes of lie Mort
Homme and to resist successfully a
German attack near Hill No. 287,
between the wood of Malancourt and
lie Mort Homme.
Late reports show that the Rus
slams have been repulsed in an attack
ON the Germans south of Garbunov-
ka, suffering heavy casualties.
On the Austro-Italian front the
usual commandments and isolated in
fantry attacks still are in progress.
Constantinople announces victories
for the Turks against the Russians
in northern Asia Minor and north
west OF Much and the defeat of the
Russians, with heavy losses, and the
capture of some prisoners neas Mont
Bathli
The recent attacks by the Turkish
cruiser Breslau against Russian
Black eea ports is said by CONSTANT
nople to have been made as a re-
prisal against the Russian fleet,
which bombards open towns and
villages on the Anatalian coast"
The bombardment by the Teutonic
allies of points on the Dorian-Giev-
geli sector of the Macedonian front
continues, according to unofficial adj
vices. The Germans, these reports
say, after having thrown numerous
shells into the towns of Mayada, oc-
cupied the place, but were compelled
TO eyacuate under a French counter
attack. Numerous 17-inch guns are
being placed along this front by the
Germans.
A royal commission has been ap-
pointed to investigate the Irish re-
bellion. which now seemingly has
been entirely put down. Premier
Asquith has informed the house Of
commons that there seems to be no
necessity for further extreme meas
ures against the rebels. Debate ON
the Irish situation has been post
poned i'm the house of commons until
Thursday, pending which no further
executions OF leaders in the revolt
will take place. Baron Wimborue,
lord-lieutenant of Ireland, has re
signed.
AS the only way in which their as
pirations for self government pos
sibly can be realized, the Irish par
liamentary party, in a manifesto. has
called upon the people of Ireland TO
support the constitutional movement
and oppose the insane course of
Irish politics"
Germany, in a note to the United
States, has admitted that a German
submarine torpedoed the French
steamer Sussex. The submarine
commander is declared not to have
acted i'm accordance with instructions
and il Is stated that he has been "ap-
propriately punished"

TONS APPROACH.

Pierre, May lin less than two
weeks from now the primary cam.
paign will have been closed and the
results announced. While there was
little activity up to a few days ago,
that lack is being made up for now
by practically all the different can-
didates getting into the field, but as
the present law makes the campaign
n OF individuals there is no or
ganized headquarters work. Appar-
entity the only headquarters for
organization maintained is the indi-
vidual one of Peter Norbeck, in his
candidacy for the nomination for
governor. and outside that each can
didate Is trusting to luck" to a large
extent. Norbeck Is out now on a
speaking tour, and will be out until
the close of the campaign, and il
harmony among the republican fac
lions which have been fighting for
years, is any indication, Norbeck
should be an easy winner for the
nomination, as there is no fight
against him other than the candi-
dacies of X. o. Richards, of Huron,
and George w. Egan, of Sioux Falls,
who have been %battering at the reg
ular" republicans of the state ON the
same lines for the past six years. each
desiring to be selected as chief eX-
ecutife of the state TO push their eX-
pressed Ideas as to what a state gov
eminent should really be, but not
united on just what it is.
Mem l., anttsa, nlA,,t a., m4.s.
generally, and his style of discussion
has become familiar to most of the
people of the state in this campaign
and past ones. Mr.. Richards is maxi
ing his plea largely on the primary
law proposition. and in this he has a
lot of sympathy or account of the
repeal act of the legislature wiping
out the law initiated and made a
part Of the law of the state by a vote
of the people and not by legislative
act. Mr.. Norbeck is making his cam
paign to a large extent upon his plan
of rural credits, and insists that he
is not to be held responsible for what
is declared to be the mistakes of the
state administration but that if Sc
lected as governor he will have what
ever trouble may come with his ad-
ministration of affairs to deal with
and answer for without being called
upon to answer for troubles over
which he had nor could have no con-
troll regardless Of his personal views.
The only places without contest
are those of {. III. Lugg for superin-
tendent of instruction. and G. G..
Caldwell as attorney general. That
is no opposition in the line Of the
regular" republicans as they are
designated. On the ticket with Mr..
Richards for governor, are opposi-
lions which may develop more or
less strength. There are wide open
contests for state treasurer, secretary
of state and auditor which promise
to be more or less lively.
