A stubborn backache is cause to

SCENIC HIGHWAY
JACKSON COUNTY TO BUILD
GOOD ROAD.

Kadoka. May 1.-The people of
Jackson county are very much alive
TO the value Of good roads. A move
ment is now on foot to build a turn
pike across Jackson county from
Stamford on the east to Interior on
the west, a distance of about fifty
eight miles. The town of kadoka
started the ball rolling" by turnpik-
ing the one and a half miles of the
Scenic highway within its corporate
limits last year. Wall township has
recently laid out a new road across
the entire width of the township ly-
ing along the south side of the Mil
waukee track. Weta township has
selected a route TO join the Wall
township line and making a direct
route from Kadoka to Weta. Weta
township and Interior township will
no doubt be able TO open a new short
line between their respective towns
this summer. Belvidere township is
alive on the east and expects TO open
a short line between there and ka-
doka. A strong effort is being made
to have Kadoka township grade and
turnpike the line from the town linn
its to the Belvidere township line.
Without doubt this line will be very
much improved and a large part of it
graded in good shape before fall,
Part of the route is already marked
and the balance will be attended to
in the near future.

RETURNS FROM CAPITAL

CAL CONDITIONS IN WASH
INGTON.

Sioux Falls, May Charles II.
Burke was in the city yesterday aft
ernoon between trains on his return
from a trip to Washington. Mr..
Burke said he had nothing Of special
importance to give out i'm the form of
an interview. He said, however. that
he found that a good deal was going
on at Washington i'm the matter OF
politics just o that for some cause
did not find its way very extensively
into the newspapers.
There is quite a general opinion
among the statesmen" he said. that
Hughes could be nominated if he
would come out and make a state
ment and signify his willingness 10
accept the nomination if rendered
However, no one has so far appeared
on the scene with any definite assur-
ances from Mr.. Hughes as to what is
i'm his mind on the subject.
There is no question but that
there is a big organization behind
Senator Root. 1t would surprise a
good many people TO hear that Col.
Roosevelt is not and has not been a
candidate for the presidency. He did
everything he could do Within rea-
sonable effort to keep his name out
of Massachusetts,. Col. Roosevelt
has his choice, but it is not Justice
Hughes. There is a good deal of
~nonsensical talk against Mr.. Roose-
welt. The one thing i'm his mind and
ambition is the ultimate defeat of
Wilson.
In the event of Justice Hughes
not being a candidate there are ru-
mors of an effort toward Burton, of
Ohio, as the choice of a number of
the downeast politicians. Cummins
is going to have considerable
strength and of course there is no
telling where the lightning may
strike.
THE general opinion about Wash
ington is that there will be no war
with Germany. As to Mexico the
story is different. | shall not be sur
prised if il is Intervention i'm fact.
Wilson is in bad i'm every way over

Bonesteel, May An automobile
containing II. +. Slaughter, a well
known land man of Dallas, Peter
Bonenberger and Albert LaFave, two

make the descent the brake slipped.
Mr.. Slaughter, who was driving,
shifted to reverse and stripped his
gears, and the unrestrained ear shot
down the hill at terrific speed and
over a forty-foot embankment. The
occupants jumped from the car. Mr..
Bonenberger suffered injuries that
are very serious and may prove fatal.
His right arm was broken between
the wrist and elbow; several ribs
were fractured and M of his legs
badly wrenched.

from this number:
To Whom it May Concern:
1t gives me great pleasure to
bear testimony to the character
and worth of the entertainment
given here by the McCalley En-
tertainers. They appeared in
our church last Friday night and
gave us an evening of splendid
wholesome enjoyment. The
readings given by Mr.. McCalley
were largely from the writings of
James Whitcomb Riley and were
given in such a manner as to
draw out the most enthusiastic
applause from the audience.
The character of the selections
were such that appealed to the
heart and adding to that the rare
gift of reading possessed by Mr..
McCalley, gave to the whole
evening a tone which was decid-
eddy enjoyable.
The violin selections and i'm
itations were excellent and added
very much to make the enter
tainment complete. This feature
was very unique and each new
selection brought increased de
light.
lean most heartily recommend
the McCalley Entertainers and /
feel that whoever is able tosbook
them for an evening has rendered
the entire community a very
valuable service.
