NEW FUR STATIONS
 WILL BE ESTABLISHED
 ON CANADIAN POINTER

SITKA, Alaska, Nov 30-Sitka'
 historic old Russian buildings erect
 ed years ago when the northeri
 Europeans owned Alaska, are gradu ally disappearing. Hundreds of tour ists in recent years have visited these buildings.
 About a year ago the Russian block house was removed to make room for an observatory for the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey. Announcement has been made that the old fur trading post. once used by the Russian American Fur Company. is to be torn down This old structure was built of logs. some of which were 24 inches in diameter For several years it has not been occupied. Recent gales so weakened it that it is believed it will collapse if allowed to stand.
 When the Russians were here they used one end of the post building as headquarters for the men they em- ployed to gather furs and barter with the natives of Southeastern Alaska In the other end the company con ducted a nautical school.
 After the United States purchased Alaska the old building was used for T general trading store by an Ameri- can firm. Prospectors leaving Sitka for many parts of Alaska bought their outfits at the store.

HEARST EDITOR PURCHASE ONE MORE NEWSPAPER
Arthur Brisbane Purchases Milwaukee Free Press and Consolidates it with
 His Other Papers.

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 30.--The Mil waukee Free Press, morning news paper, has been purchased by Arthur Brisbane, who more recently bought the Evening Wisconsin and Daily News. The Free Press will be dis. continued at once, and its business taken over by the other Brisbane Milwaukee publications
 Arthur Brisbane has been for many years chief editorial writer for Hearst's newspapers. His first ap- pearance in the field as a newspaper owner was when he purchased the Washington Times. Later, when William R. Hearst purchased the Chicago Herald and consolidated it with the Examiner, his Chicago morning newspaper, Brisbane went to Chicago and became editor of the Chicago Herald Examiner. Later he purchased the News and the Wis consin of Milwaukee.
 It has been charged that the brew cry interests of the United States furnished Brisbane with the money to purchase the Washington and Mill waukee newspapers, and Congress is Investigating the charges.
 It also has been claimed that Hearst is interested with Brisbane in the purchases, and the fact that Brisbane is still associated as an ed itor with Hearst's publications is re- garded as pointing to this conclusion.

GUARD TO ELECT
ADVANCEMENT OF ROBERTSON
VACANCY TO BE FILLED
NEXT MEETING.

At the meeting of the Home Guard
at their regular drill in the high
school gymnasium last night, Capt.
Robertson advised the members to
come prepared for the selection of Of
Ulcers. Mr.. Robertson is appointed
major of the second battalion of the
second regiment of South Dakota
Home Guards, and is resigning his
position of captain of the local com
pany. AS soon as that resignation is
accepted the election of a man for
that office will be necessary, and it is
announced that the election will be
held next Tuesday night.
There are three regiments of Home
Guards in South Dakota, and three
b~attalions to the regiment. The bat
talon of which the Madison company
is a part are the companies of Sioux
Falls, Canova, Viborg and Madison,
and which is the battalion of which
Mr.. Robertson is major. 1t is said
that the majors position as COM
mander of the battalions is wholly a
clerical one, unless the Home Guard
should at any time be called out by
battalions or greater units, or assem-
| BILE in camp at some time.
Members of the guard said this
morning that they had no men in
mind for the ca%ptaincy. 1t seems to
be the general desire to push the
present set of officers along up in
rank, creating a new lieutenant for
the one made captain. Most of the
higher company officers feel hat
their private interests suffer greatly
by the imposition of an exacting mil
itary office upon them, and are not
anxious to take up the additional
work.
The meetings of the guard are be-
coming more generally well attended
There is an interest in the work at
this time, and still more so in the
further advance n gets into the
training. The large flag given to the
company was displayed over the gal
lery railing last night.

IT Means WORK
RED CROSS FIELD WORKER
TELLS OF THE WORK
STATE GOOD.

Before a small audience in the
high school auditorium last night
Mrs. Helen Gamble, of Aberdeen,
made an address in the nature of an
exhortation before the women of the
Red Cross of Madison. The talk was
well received, being the second she
has delivered in Madison since last
fall.
Mrs. Gamble says that the Ameri-
can have got to release, or at
least relieve in a measure, the Cana
dian, English and French women
from close and numerous attention to
Red Cross work, and must do more
of this themselves. The women of
these countries are taking the places
of the men who have gone to the
front, and they have little time and
few persons to devote to the work.
The responsibility is on the Ameri-
can m
In England there are 1905 900
women engaged in munition factories
alone. Then there are the hosts of
women in other lines taken over
when the men left. In Canada the
women are doing a great work for
the Red Cross, probably in no other
country giving so much time and at
%tention to it. In France the women
are doing little for the Red Cross.
They have a greater and more exact
ing work. They have all of every
thing else to do.
Mrs. Gamble spoke of the quantity
and excellence of the work done by
the South Dakota Red Cross, as
shown by the shipments to the cen
trail station at Minneapolis. The
state is ahead of any other in the dis
trict. There are nearly as many
members in the organization in this
state now as there was in the whole
United States at the outbreak of the
war-165, 900 in the state now.
The speaker said that they wanted
only those women over there who
could render 100 per cent efficiency,
The demands made on the strength
and endurance of the nurses and
workers was something tremendous.
A nurse is said to be required to
give Is hours a day TO some form
of work for the army.
The French are looking with ex-
~pectation toward America in this war.
They are themselves a nation of or
ganization, organizing for each little
department of any endeavor. They
credit this country with the power for
organizing to carry a whole project
through, from the conception of the
grand idea to the smallest detail. In
fact, Mrs. Gamble promises nothing
of a release from present conditions,
but rather holds that there will be
still greater sacrifices demanded.

PREPARING drive
PLANS FOR DRIVE COMPLETED
AND WHEN TIME COMES
WILL BE USED.

Plans outlined by district officers
have been completed and men named
on the various committees, Chairman
John W. Walden said today. The
preparatory work has been done, and
now when the amount to be raised
and the time for doing it are an
nounced, all that will need to be
done is to set the machinery in mo-
ton, and 1t should grind irresistably
toward its indicated end.
There will be no immunity bonds
this time, the chairman said. A man
may not take out $50 and think he
has purchased immunity, if he is able
to take out many times more. The
organization is going to be such this
time that it will be soulless and re-
morseless. The government is going
to know the of each indi.
vidual, and is going to expect him to
ante in proportion. Each must dc
his share.
Each district of the county is al
lotted to an efficient chairman and
working committee. The chairman
will be commissioned directly from
the government. Then over and SUI.
pervisory of these committees will be
the central or executive committee,
who will have wide discretionary
rights-amounting almost to confis-
catory powers. And with the whole
organization they will see that each
does his share according to his net
worth, and does not shirk in being
more careful of our money than we
are of our young men.

FROM ALASKA
FORMER LAKE COUNTY MAN
HERE AFTER 10 YEARS ABB
SENCE In ALASKA.

T. j. O'Shaughnessy, formerly of
Lake county, now of Council, in the
Klondike country of Alaska, is visit
ing his sister, Mrs. John Walden,
ST.. this being his first trip to 1.-The
outside" in Is years. or since he went
into the country. He will be return
ing to the land of gold again in about
a month, and hopes to make his visits
to the land of his youth oftener than
he has hitherto.
Mr.. O'Shaughnessy says that the
Alaska of today is much different
than the wild country to which he
first went. No more the gambling
dens and the dance halls, the saloons
and resultant fights. The country is
dry now by federal act, and not a
ship may approach to within the
three mile limit, carrying liquor,
without danger of confiscation. The
country is organized. and the trail to
the Klondike country is freed of the
dangers Of those earlier days, a gov
eminent railroad taking up a great
part of the distance. He says that
the resources OF the country are not
touched yet. He has himself seen
copper ore exposed in lodges, bare
and almost pure, indicating great
mountains of the metal-but too far
from tidewater, or inaccessible from
other causes.

camp of 5000. now numbers $50.
