women in the town who seem to think
IL unusual for fellow to try and get
the papers on his side by threatening
the fellow that writes the dope but
not for Shook!
Now l see no cause for fuss ak all.
because think Johnnie ran true to
form in every particular!
When Johnnie was up in Alaska he
worked for one-third wages for the
sake of the chance of swatting some
miner on the bean with the butt Of
gun, if he laid claim to too much OF
the town when he was celebrating a
find" When he was on his ranch on
the Salmon-but that's his private
domestic affairs, and got nothing 70 do
with me.
AS to his hitting n man that he knew
couldn't come blackwell, let me ask
you if you ever knew a man who car
ried a gun constantly that wasn't a
coward? The same remark applies to
hitting a fellow when he's down. OF
course. there was nothing unusual in
Johnnie doing his little stunt in the
state capitol. just outside the supreme
court, because Johnnie has always
shown the public that he didn't care
damn for any old authority 'cept
himself.
Of course there is no denying the
fact that when Broxon said Shook
didn't give The governor of the state
chance to see the books when he
wanted to. he said a whole mouthful,
and it is up to the governor NOW to
tell us if BroXon gave us the straight
dope on the matter or not.
If Broxon, who is the governors sec
retary-and I guess that's kind of
confidential job-drew the long bow
on the mark it is up to the governor
TO let the people know that his officer
of the peace-Johnnie Shook has been
shot at when his gun wasn't loaded
but it sure seems to me that old man
BroXon must have seen the darn targ-
ct he was shooting at because ut is
most unusual for fellow to make
that much fuss if an arrow don't go
anywhere near him-unusual even for
Shook.
Give the devil his due-Snook won't
howl If he isn't hurt. This fellow
Broxon says it's his duty. and the duty
of the paper, to give the public the
straight dope on people at election
time, and | guess that's right: SO it
must be the duty of the public to see
that the man who gives them the dope
can go to his office without being
handed sleeper on the way.
think that it's up to the COVE rnor
now to let us know If what BrpXon
said is true and l. l know anything
about old Nose he's not afraid to say
which man was in the wrong.
OF course even if Broxon was In the
wrong ii was a little bit unusual to
swat him right in the capitol building
but not for Shook!

County School Notes.
By supt. G. G. Fites.

The spring examination for Sc
cond grade certificate occurs on
Thursday and Fridi.y of this week
Friday, April 14th is Arbor
and Bird Day. We hope every
teacher will interest her pupils in
the Importance of this day. A
Friday afternoon program would
be appropriate for this occasion.
There were thirty-four appli-
cants present at the eighth grade
examination last week. These
were all rural pupils. A later ex-
animation will be held for the pu-
pills of schools having nine month
terms.
Exceptionally interesting" is
the characterizing term to use III
reporting the Avon division OF
our Bon Homme County District
Institute. All papers read before
the meeting were prepared With
great care, and were full of sound
doctrine. The musical selections
provided under the guidance OF
Misses Kolberg, Lay, and Dyk
stra were much appreciated by all
members and visitors present.
Miss Conn, the Red Cross Visiting
Nurse, will arrive in the county
this week, and stay with us one
month. She desires to visit as
many of the rural schools as posi-
bic during her stay in the county.
Since the funds of the Red Gross
Commission are somewhat limited,
it will be we'll if teachers and pa
irons would cooperate in provi-
ding transportation from school to
school. Already provisions have
been made fon Miss Conn to reach
the schosls at Pleasant Ridge and
Perkins. We will be glad to hear
of other districts who will volun-
teer transportation facilities for
the nurse.
DR.. William Jayne, the first ter
riterial governor of South Dakota
died last week at his home in
Springfield Illinois. On April 5,
1911, he addressed a letter to the
children of South Dakota thru
Professor Willis E. johnson from
which we quote the following ex-
tract: ITO the boys and girls of
your great commonwealth 1 wish
to extend my congratulations up
on their having homes in land of
freedom and plenty. May they
be inspired by the sacrifices which
others have made their welfare;
may they be grateful to almighty
God for their abundant blessings;
and may they grow up to be citi-
zens who are worthy of such a
country and such a civilization"
