CAPTAIN GREBING HOME

Pierre Capital-J journal: Wear
ing three gold service stripes as
recognition of his eighteen mon
tbs of overseas service Capt.
William A. Grebing arrived in
Pierre this morning after a two
years absence from the city
while on military duty. Captain
Grebing left Pierre in September
1917, when the Fourth South
Dakota was sent to Camp Greene
and went abroad with that or
ganization as commanding Off
Ger of the Pierre company Not
long after reaching France he
was designated as special in
telligence officer and much to the
regret of his fellow soldiers left
Battery C to carry on his work
in the intelligence department
Of the army, which duties have
kept him abroad for several
months after his old regiment
returned to the States. Before
returning to Pierre he visited at
his old home in Baltimore, Md.
and arrived in Pierre this MORN
ing to be greeted and welcomed
home by his many friends and
business associates. Mrs. Greb-
ing went down to Huron to meet
her husband.

SEASONS MACHINERY
SALES BIG

w. M. Schoenberger, of Pier.
re, blockman for the Interna.
tional Harvester Co. on the ter.
ritory from Fort Pierre to Wall
a distance of 110 miles, reports
the, sale of 125 Deering and
Mccormick grain and corn bin.
ders and nearly three carloads
of twine during the season OF
1919. Has also sold about TWEEN.
tyfve 1920 Titan tractors on
the same territory. Another
is the sale of a carload, about
twenty-five, Deering and Nc.
Cormick reapers, which are
used exclusively to cut the al
falfa seed crop.
The sale of the machinery re-
presents a big demand and
should be sufficient proof that
the crops have been fairly good
iii this section, though we do
not have to go far east of the
river to find many people who
"have been told" that the
whole country west was burn
ed out this year.

A LUMINOUS EXAMPLE

New York World: The total
expenses of the trial of Henry
Ford's libel suit against the Chi
cago Tribune are estimated at
fully $50O,O0O, exclusive of the
court costs which the Tribune
must pay by virtue of the judg-
ment of 6 cents damages retur-
ned against it. This is wither-
ing indictment of the admins
tration of the law of this coun-
try, which is not ameliorated by
the fact that both Of the contes-
tants had great wealth and re-
sources. 1t is outrageous that
Henry Ford or any other man
should have to spend $3.50, 600
in proving that he is not an an
archist. It is outrageous that
a newspaper should have to
defend in a suit in which the
plaintiffs reputation was DANA
ged to the extent of 6 cents. 1t
is equally outrageous that a jury
of men. compelled to earn their
living should have to waste more
than three onths in hearing
the testimony and arguments in
a case which an English court
would have-disposed of in forty
eight hours at most. The Ford
case is a luminous example OF
how justice should not be admin
istered.

FEARFUL ACCIDENT
AT OTTUMWA

In preparation for the exhibi-
tion of the products of the CON-
munity at the county fair this
week, the people of Ottumwa
held a community fair on Satur-
day. A large crowd was pres
ent and a program of sports
was staged. During the start
ing of one of the running races,
an accident occurred that took
as it's victim one of the finest
young men of the county, and
was of such a serious nature as
to put the crowd in no mood for
further celebrating.
Philip Keyser, at the starting
of the race, was on a spirited
horse, without saddle and only
a hackamoor, alongside the
race track. AS the running
horses went by him, his horse
joined in, and after running a
short ways, came to a sudden
stop in front of a Ford car. Mr..
Keyser was thrown under the
car. His head struck a bolt un-
derneath the running board and
a great chunk was torn out of
his head, and his skull badly
fractured, leaving considerable
pressure on the brain. He was
rushed at once to the Pierre
hospital, and reports from there
are that his condition is very
grave.
The injured man is a nephew
OF Mrs. John Curington, of this
city.

STATE PROUD OF
ITS FIGHTERS

South Dakota is proud of it's
fighters and she has reason to
be. With one accord every SOL
dier, sailor and marine in the
state have doffed their hats to
the Salvation Army, and with
one voice have shouted their
high regard for those men and
women, who fearless, yet un-
armed, went forth to do their
bit for their country in trenches,
camps and hospitals. The Sal
vation Army came to them when
they were hungry, ill, homesick.
There was no task too burden
some, no sacrifice too great to
meet. Every soldiers heart is
full of gratitude and he is anx-
ious to show that appreciation.
Hundreds of South Dakota fight
ers did so when members of the
American Legion met recently
voting their unsolicited endorse
ment to the Salvation Army
campaign for funds, which will
be conducted in this state Sep
tember 1922.
Claud j. Harris, state secre-
tary, announces the following
resolution, which the South Da-
kota members of the American
Legion feel unanimously due as
token OF their deep gratitude.
There are no words that can
quite express the feeling of res
pect and affection that is uni
versal among the service men
for those men and women of
the Salvation Army, who, with a
spirit of self effacement and
hampered by their small re-
sources, rendered such effective
service under the most trying
conditions. Because the Saliva
tion Army has proved itself to
the soldiers by the work it has
done, the American Legion of
this state heartily endorses this
campaign as worthy of enthusi-
astic support throughout the
state"

Training to Teach in Terms cf Child's Life

their county superintendent,
and were at Mitchell ready fol
the work beginning at $50 a. m.
and working, many of them, un-
til TO p. m., eager and anxious to
carry work and messages from
leading educators of the state
and nation back to the rural
schools and put their county Oil
the map.
The average salary paid thru
out the state to teachers is 500
per month, though some are get
ting S135. This means in the
rural schools.
From Haakon county the
teachers in attendance were Mrs.
ON. Culp, who will teach in No.
10; Miss Elizabeth Dunlevy, who
will teach in No. 56; Miss Nora
Abrahamson, A who will teach in
No. ST; Miss Helga Peterson,
who will teach in No. rs; Mrs.
M. nj. Burgess, who will teach in
No. 92. These teachers will put
the work into these schools the
coming year and be ready with
demonstrations and talks to help
and inspire others.
In many counties school
boards have paid the expenses
of their teachers and some have
already purchased a necessary
outfit to begin the years work.
Our school boards that these
teachers represented will be ask
ed to follow suit" for we can
not and we must not let any 9TH
er county BEAT Our Record To-
day. State Superintendent
Shaw said, "It is perfectly all
right and the duty of the school
boards to pay all the expenses
of these teachers in attend
ance."
Hoping you are all ready to
cooperate with State, County
and teachers when called upon,
| believe that we can put IIaa-
kon county with the leaders in
this great movement for the
better rural schools.

intendent.

Edgar Watwood, of MilesvilIe,
returned Monday morning from
Pierre, where he had been for
a conference with the state sup

MITCHELL MEETING
- BEST AND LARGEST

To our friends and those inter
ested in the education of our
boys and girls:
The courses in vitalized agri-
culture, or properly speaking,
"vitalized education" closed at
Mitchell August 29th, follow
ing two others, one held at Aber-
deem and one at Sioux Falls.
They were attended by county
superintendent and their teach
ers, ranging from six to fifteen
in number.
At these conferences, called by
State Superintendent Shaw and
conducted by Professor Holden
and his most able assistants, fin
anced by the international Har-
vester company, was taught
Prof. Holden's great method,
"vitalized education" by MAX
ing things and rotation, SO as to
prevent monotony and skim
ming.
This movement is heartily
endorsed by our big governor,
Peter Norbeck, who spoke at the
Mitchell meeting.
The Mitchell meeting was the
best and largest of it's kind, in
point of interest and attendance
ever held in the United States.
One in Missouri held the record
up to date; now, ''hurrah for
Mitchell" !"
One other state, Missouri, has
adopted this system and from
South Dakota Prof. Holden goes
to Oklahoma to organize that
state. They send back word.
We'll beat South Dakota" Will
they? It's up to South Dakota
and we have never lost out yet.
At each one of the meetings
Prof. Holden's motto, "This day
| will beat my record" was the
keynote.
One hundred fifty teachers,
bearing their own expenses in
most cases, rallied to the call of

PAY WOLF BOUNTIES

The state auditors depart
ment is sending out the annual
warrants on wolf bounty claims,
and is this year paying 87-71
cents on the dollar, the highest
amount ever paid under the pro-
rata law of payment of such
claims. The last legislation
session changed the method of
paying wolf bounties, providing
for payment of the same at face
value on presentation, instead
of requiring the claimant to wait
to the end Of the year for pro
rating of the claims. The ap-
preparation was increased from
fifteen thousand dollars a year
and with the experience of sew
eral years, this amount should
pay all claims on the fund.
J. A. Buchanan, the genial
auctioneer from Midland, was
arraigned in Justice Purdy's
court here Tuesday afternoon,
and his trial set for September
18th. He is charged with assault
with q dangerous weapon, the
complainant being Chas. Robert
son, prominent business man of
Midland. Particulars regarding
the affair have not been learned,

FINANCIERS OF NATION
LOOKING FOR UPHEAVAL

A financial crisis is ahead of
the country, according to leading
bankers of New York, which
may be one of the most serious
situations the country has ever
faced.
There seems to be little doubt
in the minds of Wall street lead
ers, judging from views express
ed, but that the crisis will take
a decidedly political turn. FL
nanciers expect the radical ele-
ments among labor leaders to
make a stand for communism.
While Wall street admits that
. there has been a perceptible
slowing down on the part of
moneyed interests, bankers say
they are confident of the out
come of the issue between labor
and capital.
Capital is doing some watch
full waiting" explained one vice
president, connected with one of
the largest institutions of the
country. Many of our clients
are apprehensible. Some are
scared.
MANY wealthy interests no
longer care about making money.
For example, this morning a
client was in here, man who
keeps a million dollar account
with us. He had drawn 20 in
terest, and | asked him to wait a
few minutes so that we pay him
what was due.
''He didn't want it. What is
the USE he replied, more money
is simply more taxes and more
trouble. Never mind the inter-
est Siilar lack of interest in
pushing developments is notice
able among most of the big in
terests."
The crisis will be a good tonic
for the country in that it will be
a showdown and will end agita-
tion, say the bankers, who feel
that the decision will be along
the lines of "the democracy and
freedom for which our forefath-
ers fought" as one man put it.
Wall street is prepared for the
crisis when it comes, and will
"nimble, ITO use the terms of fl
nance. The bankers say the
people of the country will be
hardest hit, especially investors
if drop in stocks comes. Wall
street will not be especially hard
>hit according to predictions,
since it does not hold the major
ity of the securities, contrary
to the popular idea.
The bankers point out that the
public's idea of Wall street is a
small group of banks which own
practically all the securities in
the country. According to fl
nanciers, Wall street owns few
securities, and is merely an eX-
change for the savings banks of
the country. Either the saw
ings banks or small private in
vestors own by far the larger
part of American securities. The
Pennsylvania railroad, with it's
one hundred thousand stockhold-
ers and the Santa Fe with it's
forty thousand owners, as well
as many other large corporations
are cited as examples.

LEGION
DISTRICTS STATE

In order to interest every ex-
service man in the state in
enrolling in the American Lee
gion and to interest communi-
ties where there are now no
posts organizing, the state
headquarters of the Legion at
Sioux Falls have divided the
state into districts.
This county is in the sixteen
tn district and HI. HI. Rowe, of
Fort Pierre, has been named as
district organizer. Mr.. Rowe
calls attention to the work the
Legion is now undertaking to
aid the ex-service man, wheth-
er member of the organiza-
ton or not.
"In accordance with reso-
luton passed at the caucus of
the American Legion held at
ST. Louis, the Legion is giving
to it's members, and to those
eligible for membership, all pos
sible aid in matters concerning
their War Risk Insurance, allot-
ments, liberty bonds, bonuses,
travel pay, etc. For the last
few months the legion has been
rendering this service to all of
it's members who have had oc-
|casion to ask for aid. During
that time it has helped hun
dreds of men to obtain a final
and complete settlement of
their accounts. In every section
a member of the Legion acqua-
inted with the procedure neces-
sary to obtain a speedy settle
ment of any account that a dis
charged soldier may have with
available and ready to help.
Delivery of liberty bonds
has been expedited. Bonus
checks which had been delayed
have been obtained. Claims for
bonuses presented by the Le-
gion have been settled in record
time. Compensation claims have
been settled and payment Sc
cured. Men who had been dis
charged from the army or navy
and whose discharge certificat-
es showed them to be in appar-
ent good health, have, through
the Legion, proved to the Gov
ernment that they are, as
matter of fact, not in good
health, and have had their COM
pensation claims allowed and
paid. These results have been
obtained thru full cooperation
with the various Government
Bureaus.
"In addition, the Legion is
carrying on a general campaign
to inform exservice men of
their wrights and privileges
and to assist in obtaining them.
Compensation is now paid to
injured soldiers on the basis of
$4,000 per month. Legislation
has been introduced to make it
payable on the basis of $4,000
per month. Government insur-
ance at present is payable to
the beneficiary in installments
covering a period of 20 years
Most men desire to have their
insurance paid in one lump sum.
Legislation is now pending to
have this done. Also Legisla-
ton is pending to enlarge great
ly the class of persons who may
be named as beneficiaries Of
insurance.
"This service has been estab-
lished for the benefit Of ex-
service men. 1t is urgently re-
quested that every member be
informed SO that he may avail
himself of any assistance neces-
sary in connection with his re-
lations with the Bureau of
War Risk Insurance, the Zone
Finance Officer, or other Gov
ernment agencies"
Parties interested in Ameri-
can Legion affairs are at liberty
to communicate with the dis
trict organizer, or Claude j.
Harris, Secretary, Sioux Falls,
and their inquiries will receive
prompt attention.
