SAW OMAHA LYNCHING.

Harry Atwood returned home
Thursday of last week from visit to
relatives and friends in Iowa. While
away he closed deal for the j. Quig
ley homestead that joins him on the
south, This now gives Harry a
mighty fine half section of Mellette
county dirt. Harry says he was also
in Omaha on the Sunday that the mob
there hung a negro and he was for
tunate, or unfortunate, enough to
witness the mobs awful work and was
within two hundred feet of the pole
they strung the black on. He says
it certainly makes fellow have a
mighty funny creepy feeling to
witness such sight and says he
doesn't care to see it again. He also
saw the burning of the court house
by the mob. He says that the mob
was almost wholly composed of young
men and boys ranging from ls t., 30
years of age, and good many women
were also in the crowd.

BIG MEN AND LITTLE FELLOWS

An attempt was made in Congress
to spend $4,000 of the government
funds for the purpose of presenting
General Pershing with a gold sword,
At the very time this was done a
discharged soldier with wooden leg
was in Washington who was unable
to collect cent OF the insurance that
was due him for the loss of his leg.
We do not begrudge Pershing gold
sword, or any other kind ofa trinket
If he wants it.
But we do believe In paying the
debts that are due the private soldiers
who sacrificed everything to serve
their country, and we believe in pay
ing those debts before any money is
spent on Pershing or any other gen
eral who drew fat salary and lived
In comfort while the enlisted men
existed in discomforts too soul rack
ing for description.
If we are to enter upon an era Of
hero worship as result of the few
months We spent in this war, let us
at least be consistant in the matter.
There is no one entitled to more
credit and none is more endowed With
the attributes of hero. than the
man behind the gun and the junior
officer who went over the top with
him. He 1t was who went bravely
into the jaws of death with a smile
on his face, who stoically pulled at
cigarette as dis mangled form was
borne to the real.
He asked for no reward, and, to our
undying shame, he has received none
from the government.
Spasmodic attempts have been made
by few members of Congress to Sc
cure some adequate recognition for
these brave men, but all such endea-
vors have ended in fizzle.
There are many of those young men
In our community who have served
their country well, and have been dis
charged from the army and promptly
forgotten.
Is this to be era of rewarding the
big man and forgetting the little fel-
low2
If so, let US at least have the homes
ty to say so when we hand out re-
wards.
Camoufiage served its purpose In
france, but there is no occasion for
employing 1t In this country in times
of peace.

FOR THE AUTO TOURIST.

Befor- next years auto tourist sea
son opens we would like to see a nice
little camp ground fitted up on Butte
Greek near the bridge just east of
town, and the place kept clean and
sanitary, and then have neatly paiut
ed sign on the Memorial Highway
stating that Wood offers the free Use
of this camp ground to the auto tour
ist. The creek might also be damed
up and in this way provided nice lake
of water that would add to the attrac
tiveness of the spot, aud this would
also afford considerable pleasure to
the people living in Wood. A very
beautiful camp ground could be pro
vided here and it would attract many
of the tourists who come this way,
who would stop and enjoy our hospi
tality. 1t would be one of the very
best advertisements that we can think
of for Wood, and we believe it would
be worthy of trial. Eventually a
neat little exhibit booth sag about sx
10 could be built there to house a
permanent display of grains and
grasses of this section. This building
should be mostly of glass. Yes it
would take some money and labor to
provide these convepiences. This is
public improvement that we bave
been thinking about for some time.
We would like to hear from others on
this suggestion.

HERE IN THE INTEREST OF
SOLDIERS MEMORIAL.

Doan Robinson, Secretary of the
State Historical Society, accompanied
by Lille Burkhart, son of Secretary of
State Burkhart, were here Wednesday
in the interest of the proposed Sold
iers and Sailors Memorial that it is
proposed to build on the State Capitol
grounds at Pierre. Mr. Robinson in
formed us that so far the drive for
funds for the erection of this memor
ial has beeu quite successful, and
most all counties where there has
been any effort made at all, the re
sponse has been quite generous. He
was here to effect an organization in
Mellette county, 70 that the work of
raising funds could be taken up in
this county IN a systematic manner
The proposed Memorial building is tc
be 5Ox50 feet square and It's feet high
towering 20 feet aboye the dome of
the capitol and will form one of the
most distinctive and attractive monu
ments on the continent; monumental
in appearance, while affording ample
Accommodations for the museum OF
war trophies. The approximate cost
of this building is $225, 900, and it is
proposed to raise this sum by popular
subscriptions smong the citizens of
the state of South Dakota.

At the time of his escape he was be

penitentiary, under a sentence of eight
years, for counterfeiting. That was hi
second conviction. He had been con
victed of the same crime in Seattle in
1914, and had served a term of four
years.
It is believed that he is somewhere
