White Leader:-The Brookings Reg
lister has passed another mile stone, it
now being in it's 36th year. The paper
has been a loyal booster for the pro-
gress and growth of the city of Brook
ings and community and the goodly
name Brookings has earned is in no
small degree due to the Registers
efforts in putting it on the map. The
Register is in all probability the best
weekly paper we receive on our ex-
change table. May it continue to pros
per and work out our county's future
destiny,-the best in the Northwest.
Bruce Notwithstanding city is
getting some hard knocks because or
the bad roads leading into the town
which is probably deserved, but it
must be remembered that Brookings is
not the only place where bad roads
may be found. Besides we have had
an unusual spring with a great amount
Of rain which most of the time prevent
around Brookings is rather low so it
has been difficult to do much to help
them this spring. The time for inn
provement is from now on during the
summer, so that hereafter when the
rainy season comes on the roads will
be in condition to carry off the water.
OF course Brookings will see that work
will be done so in the future there will
be no occasion for complaint.
When Messrs. Bartlett, Poole, Car
Isle and Murphy were at Hartford
Bend on Big Stone lake recently they
made a visit to Bonanza Springs which
is seven miles up the lake from Hart
ford, on the Minnesota side of the
lake. The party learned there that
this resort had lately been purchased
by a syndicate of Minneapolis bust
ness men and the late owner, who was
still in charge, stated that Col. Luce
and his father, were interested in the
company. 1t was the intention, so
this man claimed, to extend the Luce
Line from Dawson north to the resort,
after a big sanitarium has been COM
pleted. The Luce Line will pass
through Dawson on it's way to Brook
ings. Bonanza Springs will no doubt
be quite a resor some day, as it is ad-
v~antageously located and has four
mineral springs which it is claimed
have curative qualities.
Old Dobbin came from his slumbers,
lifted his ears and snorted when an ap-
parent stranger all dressed up in a
new suit Of overalls and jumper ap-
preached him Saturday afternoon.
Finally the faithful old nag became
sufficiently reconciled to draw his mas
ter and his cart home but it didn't stop
there. The faithful old dog, which had
guarded his master and his b~elOngings
