AUTO TAG SUPPLY SHORT

If autos are a sign of prosperity,
says a special dispatch from Pierre
South Dakota is very prosperous.
Since January 1 of this year the auto
mobile department has licensed 27,300
cars, in comparison with $4,000 licens-
ed on the same date last year from
January /, 1915. In fact the ertir
yearly total for 1915 reached 2S.7-ey
which is only a bit over what have
been licensed up to the present time
for this year. 1t is expected there
fore that the increase of 1916 over
1915 will be 10000 or more at least.
In March IS, 1915, the total ears
licensed had reached 8,O74 while this
year on that date 14,194 had been issu-
ed since January /. The totals for
1915 were 28,725; for 1914 were 20, 1929;
for 1913 were 14,457.
The department is receiving several
dozens inquiries per day from indi-
viduals wanting their number plates
for cars. The manufacturer has,
through war conditions, been some
what delayed in the output of the
plates, and that fact, in addition to the
great increase wanted in South Ia
kota all of which could not be antici-
pated has made the situation some
what delayed here, but these plates
are arriving daily, and will all be on
hand shortly to fully supply owners or
cars. In the meantime the license
itself is issued, and the owner carries
that in his pocket, and the plates will
follow shortly.

PRISONER INSANE
IS THE VERDICT
HARVEY E. CAMPBELL CONFINED
AT COUNTY JAIL WILL BE
TAKEN TO ASYLUM
NO IMPROVEMENT IN MENTAL CONDITION
1t Is Reported Federal officers Found
Sufficient Evidence to Convict
Under Mann Act

Judge Geo. p. Hall, DR.. A. w. Hyde,
both of this city, and Attorney Berke,
of Elkton, sitting as the County San
ity Board, Saturday evening adjudged
Harvey E. Campbell, now confined at
the county Jail, insane and a fit subject
for treatment at the asylum at Yank-
ton.
Campbell was arrested on April "a
on a charge Of vagrancy and placed in
the county Jail pending investigation
on the part of the federal authorities,
which later brought to light, it is said,
that Campbell transported women
from one state to another for immoral
purposes. If this evidence is true he
may be held on a white slave charge
and tried for violating the Mann act
if he RECEIVERS his mental faculties.
Late reports from Sheriff Miner are
to the effect that no Improvement is
noticeable in Campbell's condition. He
was kept at the county Jail by the au-
thorities in hope that his mental CON
dition would not necessitate his re-
moval to Yankton. The authorities at
Yankton have been notified and he
will be removed as soon as officers can
reach Brookings from that institution.

STATE

University of Wisconsin debating
team defeated State College team Fri
day evening at Madison, Wis.
A telegram from Prof. Brown, who
accompanied the team, says:
1.-TWO to one against us. Holly con
tested every man. Brilliant work.
O'Neil, Wisconsin coach, says pest de-
bate in his three years here. Missouri
Wisconsin debate of night before out
classed. Our boys complimented on
all hands for showing. Judges admit
case a toss-up. Uncertainty until de-
cision announced"
Homer Smith, Horace Jones and
Charles Rowe upheld the negative
side Of the question for State College.
The question was: Resolved, that
the general adoption OF the Short Bal.
lot in state, county and municipal cleo
tons in the United States, would be
conducive to the best interests of the
people"

LOCAL ATTORNEY REFEREE

Philo Hall, of this city, has been ap-
pointed as referee in the disbarment
proceedings which were recently filed
against George J. Danforth, an attor-
ney Of Sioux Falls. Investigation of
the charge by the attorney general has
been waived by Mr.. Danforth. This is
the third complaint filed during the
past few months against South Dakota
attorneys.
In the disbarment proceedings
against Justice Policy the referees
closed their session Friday. No evil
dence was produced to sustain the
charges made by Joe Kirby, of Sioux
Falls, and the case should be dis,
missed on it's merits, is the substance
Of the recommendation made to the
supreme court by the referees.

PROF. DUNBAR APPOINTED

B. A. Dunbar, associate professor Of
chemistry at State College, has been
appointed to represent the American
Chemical Society as aide to the Naval
Consulting Board of the United States.
Professor Dunbar is the second State
College man to receive appointment to

Bracket, who was appointed by the
American institute of electrical en-
g%ineers. These men will cooperate
with others in supplying the wal and
navy departments with confidential in
dustrial inventories, which will be
used in organizing the industrial re-
sources of the county for the public
sci vice in national defense. Howard
E. Coffin, chairman, states that more
than thirty thousand men are pledged
to the work of the Naval Consulting
Board.

APPRECIATION WEEK

The first activity of u newly or
ganized State Development League
will be an Appreciation and Develop
ment Week, during the week of May
1920. At this time the various news
papers will publish booster articles
relative to South Dakota, and the
teachers in the public schools will lay
particular emphasis or South Dakota
history, South Dakota government, etc.
All people are urged to write letters
to their friends in other states, describ-
ing the opportunities which South Da-
kota affords, and in addition to these
and many other activities, a series of
good roads runs are to be made. These
good roads runs will cover a period of
four days, the first day being over the
Black & Yellow Trail. Starting at
Pierre at $3.50 a. m. IN the 18th, the
official party will go east to Huron, ar
irving there in the evening, Will a Sec
ond party will start from Brookings
at 1920 p. m, going west and arriving
at Huron simultaneously with the party
from the west. 1t is the plan to hold a
big roads meeting in Huron that even
ing, and organize, or rather re-organ-
iZe the State Black & Yellow Trail
association.
The Black e Yellow Trail is one of
the leading highways of South Dakota.
Passing through the central part of
the state and leading into the Black
Hills, it has an advantage which no
other highway possesses. However, it
needs considerable development, and
a large amount of publicity in order to
hence this automobile run on the 10th
of May, and the meeting in the even
ing.
Huron Commercial Club is planning
on furnishing storage free of charge
for all cars, and will undoubtedly give
the good roads enthusiasts a big ban
quet the evening of the 10th.
This is an occasion to boost for bet
ter roads and for the development of
u state, and every road enthusiast
should plan on taking an active part
in the run, even though they may not
be able to come on to Huron for the
evening meeting.

OVER 500 T25P[E
CAME TO BROOK|NGS
FIRST MARKET DAY HIGHLY Sue
CESSUL-cRoWDS PLEASED
WITH EVERYTHING
NEXT MARKET DAY SET FOR MAY nth
Auction Sales Good Under Conditions
Farmers Requested to Bring
in More Stuff

Fully 500 people were in BrOokings
Saturday for Brookings first monthly
Market Day despite very unfavorable
weather conditions and the fact that
the farmers are very busy with spring
planting.
Before the stores were all open and
ready for business many shoppers were
on hand to take advantage of the var
iety of attractive specially priced ar
ticles ranging all the way from garden
hoes to automobiles. The trains from
the north and west brought in their
quota of shoppers which vas augment
ed by many from the rural sections
who began arriving shortly after noon
and continued up until as late as five
o'clock.
Many were disappointed at not hear
ing the Military Band. On account of
a track meet at State College the band
could not play the entire time %announc-
ed. This excellent organization holds
a warm place in the hearts of Brook
ings county people, and ether parts of
the state, too, and few there are who
pass up an opportunity to hear them.
The business men of Brookings and the
Commercial Club are greatly indebt-
ed to the young men of the band, Nj.
Pickett, Prof. Carl Christensen and
President Perisho, for the readiness
in which they willingly responded to
make Brookings first Market Day a
success.
The auction sale was good consider
ing it was the first attempt. Some of
all but this is due largely to the fact
that the crowd interested in such sales
was small. Some of the stuff was not
s~easonable and some priced too high.
Col. S. j.. Rudolph sold the various
items and carried the sale along in his
characteristic and able manner
A canvass of the merchants disclose
the fact that practically all had an ex-
cellent days business and are heartily
in favor of a Market Day on the last
Saturday of each month throughout the
summer and fall.
A permanent committee will be ap-
pointed to work out further details,
and perfect all arrangements, having
in mind the elimination of everything
Objectionable and the addition of new
features to make the day attractive
and successful in the fullest measure.
Anyone who has property which they
wish to sell are invited to send in their
list to J. F. Brooke, secretary of the
as they have on Market Day.

MAX e NJ SHOWING

The annual inspection of State Col
lege military department last week by
the U. S. val department was made by
Major Munroe Mcfarland, General
Staff. The general appearance OF
Corps, the military band, as well as
the sturdy appearance of the individual
cadets were commended by the inspec,
tor.
Lieut.. r. c. Ditto, U. S. Army, is
commandant of the cadet corps and is
largely responsible for the splendid
showing of the student army men. The
student officers are: Cadet Major,
Clarence Evers, Bigstone; Cadet Cap
tains-Alfred Rishoi, White, and l.. l.
Bennett, Canton; Cadet LIST Lieuten'
ants-Ray Cunningham, Condo; Jens
Riis, Denmark; and C. H. Karlstad
Dempster; Cadet I'd Lieutenants-Ed
ward Anderson, Watertown; William
Emerson, ~Castlewood; and Victor
Woodruff, Miller. Professor Carl
Christensen is director of the college
Fourth Regiment Band.
Cadet Major Clarence Evers of Big
Stone, and Cadet Captain Alfred Rishoi
of White, have been recommended for
commissions in the regular U. S. Army
as a result of special aptitude shown in
college work. Cadet Lieutenants c.. H
Karlstad Of Dempster, and Ray Gun,
ningham of Condo, received special
mention. Good progress was made by
all cadets this year in spite of bad
drilling weater.
The practical instruction given in
the Military Department of the State
College embrace the Manual of Arms
company close and extended order
drills, scouting, map reading, physical
exercises and problems in tactics. In
addition to the foregoing, theoretical
instruction in other military subjects
is given. In short, the purpose of the
department is to give the young mer
Of the college a training that will fiji
them for officers of volunteers in time
of war. The federal government fur
nishes nearly all the equipment II
conduct the department. Under the
provisions of pending legislation uni
forms. tentage and cooking utensils fol-
camping purposes will be supplied

military instruction beyond the periot
required is provided for.

NO MORE "PORk"

Resolutions urging Congress to
create a National Highways Commits
sion to investigate and report upon the
most economic and beneficial method
for the Federal Government to par
ticipate in the building of good roads
are being submitted by the National
Highways Association to State Legis-
l~atures, Chamber Of Commerce and
civic organizations in all sections of
the country.
Believing that Congress is now prac-
tically committed in principle to the
policy of federal participation in good
roads construction, this movement
has been undertaken to direct such
participation along the most scientific
and economic lines. The form of reso-
luton offered to the Legislatures and
Chamber Of Commerce provides that
the National Highways Commission
shall survey and locate a system of
highways connecting all state highway
systems by interstate trunk lines, thus
providing a national system of high
ways which will correlate the state
systems just as the state sytems IN
thirty-one states of the Union now CO.
relate and bring to their highest value
the county and township systems.
In presenting the resolutions the Ma
tional Highways Association has adj
vanced the argument that only by pro-
viding for some such scientific location
of the highways on which federal funds
are to be expended can the evils of
the "p%ork-barrel" system be avoided.
With every good roads" measure
that is introduced in Congress it is
made evident that the trend is away
from pork" and toward a method of
federal participation which will secure
the most efficient administration of
the work and the most economic re-
suits. Officers of the National High
ways Association express their conf
dence that, with the tide set in this
direction, they will succeed in their
effort to have federal participation in
this work guided and controlled by the
counsels of IN expert commission.

JUNGLE JOE" TO TALK

Former Speaker Joe Cannon, of Hi
nois, will be n of the number of
prominent men who will address the
bankers annual state convention at
Sioux Falls June % and 20.
All of Brookings bankers are plan
ming to attend the convention and from
the interest taken by the bankers of
the state it will be well attended. j. E.
Platt, of Clark, secretary of the South
Dakota Bankers association, was in
Sioux Falls Saturday comforting with
James B. Lambertson, chairman of the
convention committee, and other bank
ers of Sioux Falls, with reference to
the convention. Mr.. Plat said:
This is going to be the biggest and
best meeting the bankers have ever
held in this state" said MI. Plat. 81
have had personal visits, and such a
very large number of letters regarding
this convention that you can be abso-
lutely assured that Sioux Falls will
entertain the largest convention of
bankers this year that has ever con-
vened in this state. Representatives
of the largest banking centers of the
United States will attend this meeting.
New York will furnish quite a delega-
ton; Chicago's delegation expects to
come to Sioux Falls in a special car of
their own, and the Twin Cities have
likewise arranged for a special car to
accommodate banker representatives
from those cities. There will also be
representatives from several Iowa
banking centers, including Sioux City,
Des Moines, Davenport, Cedar Rapids,
and Dubuque. I believe that We will
have an attendance Of not less than
600 to 800 people. A program of ex-

ers have been selected from thise who
are familiar with the conditions and
l.esis of the retail business of South
Dakota. 1t is the intention of the as.
sociation to not only discuss the bust,
less of merchandising but mobolize
South Dakota's great body of business
men to further the advancement of all
industries and put before the people a
better knowledge of the ability Of the
merchants to sell the consumer every
thing he needs, thus spending the
South Dakota dollar at home.
Bookings will have two speakers
o the program. Prof. G. A. Starring,
head of the publicity department, State
College, will deliver an address on
advertising" Prof. Starring will
treat his subject in a new n and
will touch upon phases of the subject
rarely ever treated and one of the most
important to the merchant who is a
user of advertising space in news
papers. Charles +. Hall, will speak
OF Home Paper and Home Mer-
chants" Mr.. Halls experience in both
the newspaper and mercantile bust
ness gives him an insight and know
ledge invaluable in mercantile business
The officers of the association and
the people of Pierre are arranging for
a pleasant time for the merchants. The
entertainment committee has arranged
