PUBLICITY PAMPH-
LET'S IN TRANSIT

The force at the county audi
tors office were busy the first of
the week in mailing out the state
publicity pamphlets, as provided
in the primary election law. The
books contain pictures and brief
biographies of the various cam
didates for state and national of
ficer. This papers book reviewer
has not had the opportunity to
20 over a copy, SO is not in a po-
sltion to state whether it is q
worth while addition to current
literature. One thing is certain.
any member of the family may
be permitted to read it, and the
pictures may even prove inter-
esting to the little tots who
have not yet learned to read.

THE MYSTERY TRAIN

w. D. Holcomb, former mana
ger of the local electric plant
and still one of it's principal
stockholders, came out from
Wolsey Sunday to look after
business matters here. Mr.. Hol-
comb states that the talk along
the Northwestern in that sec
ton is not about the favorites in
the race for the republican nomi-
nation for president, but is con-
fined TO the mystery train,
which has been running between
Pierre and Tracy for the past
six weeks, without any other ap-
perent object than to keep up
the operating expenses of the
division. 1t is understood over
there that the train will have
accomplished its object, what
ever it is, by March 1st, when
the railroads pass from govern
ment to private operation, and
that it will be discontinued at
that time.

BREAKDOWN AT
ELECTRIC PLANT

The electric light plant "went
on the hummer" Saturday and
candles and lamps were purchas-
ed or resurrected for use that
night. The trouble occurred in
burning out a transformer just
outside the plant. A number of
connections on the switchboard
at the power house were burned
oHt by the short circuit that was
created. An electrician came out
from Pierre Sunday morning and
repaired the damage. The state
ment that both engines were
laid up by an attack of Flu was
denied by Chief Electrician Nick
Pottinger.

MAKES BUSINESS
TRIP BY AUTO

That conditions In this section
are exceptionally good for this
time of the year is indicated by
the large number of travelling
men who are making the terri
tory by auto, rather than depend
upon the limited train SER
vice which we have. For instance
Fl. L. Montank, who represents
a DeadWoed house, was in Philip
Friday night on an extended
trip by auto, making the towns
from Rapid City to Huron, then
south to Mitchell and back
through the towns along the
Milwaukee line. He is accompa-
MED on the trip by his wife and
daughter.

HUGHES RULING
FAVORS SOLDIERS

A decision made by Judge
Hughes in q recent case which
will prove of interest to service
men is to the effect a soldier is
entitled to exemption from tax
on his partnership property up
to the statutory amount, the
same as other property, Also
that if a man entered the serv-
ice after paying hia first half tax
and before the second half be-
came due he is exempted from
payment of the second half.
This ruling, we understand,
is contrary to the helding of
the attorney general. Fort

Jos. Heidler has recently pur-

north of the court house. The
transfer did not include the old
barn, which Mr.. Boyle retained.
He has been engaged recently in
tearing down this structure and
will use the lumber for other
purposes. It's removal takes out
one OF the unsightly buildings
OF the city, that no one regrets
seeing removed.

BYRON WHITES IN
FAMILY REUNION

We are in receipt Of a copy OF
the Pomona, California, Pro-
gress, with a story of a notable
family reunion, in which Mr.. anu
Mrs. Byron White, former resi-
dents of the Milesville country
took part. The story is prefaced
with a fine halftone cut showing
the father and mother, their six
daughters and husbands, the one
son and his wife. The Progress
has the following to say of the
happy event:
A notable family reunion was
held in this city this week, the
participants being Mr.. and Mrs.
F. M. Conklin, 555 East Fifth
avenue, and the families of their
six daughters and one son, a
group of eight couples. The pic
ture shown above was taken at
the Conklin home and is a very
unusual picture, for there are
few families of this character
and seldom are such reunions
held.
1t was an unusual event for
Pomona, for altho only three of
the couples have been residents
of this city for any length of
time, at least three have come
long distances to attend the re-
union and possibly all the coupl-
es wilt make Pomona their per-
manent home, and in the declin-
ing years of Mr.. and Mrs. Con-
kiln they will be near that these
days may be among the bright
est and happiest of the many in
their long career.
Mr.. and Mrs. Conklin were
pioneers of South Dakota. They
endured the hardships and trials
that went with that life, but
they laid a foundation which has
characterized the rapid and SUBJ
stantial growth not only of that
state but of the entire nation
and their record, like many is
one of which their sons and dau-
ghters and the generations to
come will look back with pride
and thanksgiving.
The reunion was held on Sun
day, the first day of February,
and those who participated in
cluded the following:
Charles Conklin, wife and son,
Harry, of Conde, So. OAK; Mr..
and Mrs. Byron White, son
Frank and daughter, Eva, of
Brentford, So. Oak; Mr.. and
Mrs. Wilmot Kester and daugh-
ter Jesse, of Suver, Ore. Mr., and
Mrs. John Kantz and daughter
Maxine, of Elkhart, Ind; Mr..
and Mrs. w. w. Hanson and sons
Harry and Lester, and the later's
wife, Mr.. and Mrs. B. r. Cowan
and three daughters, Vella, Ver-
ma, and Stella Pauline, Mr.. and
Mrs. Carl Middleton, two sons,
Carl and Earl, and daughter,
Pauline, all of Pomona.

the picture, were all tastily gow-

WHIT AMERICA NEEDS

|. America needs a re-birth OF
Americanism. What does that
mean?
America was born amid the
turmoils of the old world from
which it sought escape. America
lifted its head after great sacri-
flee of men and treasure.
American men and women built
a temple of freedom founded on
human liberty and independence
from foreign political entangle-
ment.
American heroes and heroines
crowned that temple with patrio-
tism, national spirit and protec-
tion from enemies without and
within.
Since 1916, in some quarters.
the declaration of independence
and the federal constitution have
lost their influence and power.
The principles and beliefs of the
fathers of the republic have been
pronounced "old stuff.
No longer is it patriotic or
fashionable in some minds to
cling to the fundamentals of A.
merican citizen ship and
constitutional obligations.
New Freedom" world bro
therhood," personal liberty. !"
and "free speach and free pen"
are the shibboleths of the hour
and the tests of Americanism
lin some quarters. No longer
are American traditions to be
praised! they are to be apolog-
lied for.
Whatever virtue there may be
in any international league it
must not eclipse America and
American nationality. Whatever
measure of need there may be
OF a world super-government.
America must not be permitted
to drift.
Americanfsm is above and be-
yond party. Nevertheless It is
we'll to measure and credit al
parties according TO their ten
dencies and their merit. II ia
Just to all concerned--most of
all to America-to admit that
the largest contributions to this
OF Americanism must
come from one hundred per
cent Americans--those who
place America above all other
countries and who are unwilling
20 surrender a single atom of
american sovereignty or A.
power which has cost So
much. ~ ~
The American spirit is an at
tribute OF the heart. 1t partak-
es OF that sort of patriotism and
love OF country which no foreign
ailurements can shake. Tt in
vItes all who will partake of and
protect that spirit to come to
our shores. 1t warns all who
view America with foreign ewes
and tolerate America with an
ailen heart, either not to come
here or net to remain.
There Is no half way point be-
tween loyalty and disloyaftv

same pattern, the materials be-
ing wool batists and satin. The
families gathered first at the
Conklin home, 555 East Fifth
avenue, and there occurred the
reading of a poem which will be
particularly cherished by the
grandchildren. 1t was read by
Mrs. Byron Whiteeand was en-
titled, GRANDMOTHER"
Upon her folded hands the sum
shine falls,
Bathing their lines and scars
of toll in light;
And they are quiet as the even
ing earth
That waits in peace the COM
ing on of night.
She has held children's children
in her arms.
Whose babies too, have lain a.
gainst her breast; "
Now, in the shade of memories
withdrawn.
In the high midday sun she
sits at rest.
To her, remote, with her COM
pleted life.
About her like a garment, age
is kind.
For still her children, small and
very dear
Play in the secret dwelling of
her mind.
Charles Conklin, eldest in the
family, then presented the mo-
ther with huge boquet of pink
and white sweet peas. To the fa-
ther was given a basket of vio-
let's by Mrs. Frances Kester, the
oldest daughter.
The entire party was then TAX
en- to the home of the daughter,
Mrs. Laura Hanson, where a
sumptuous dinner was served. A
program followed which included
"reminiscences of earlier and
childhood days and jokes and
stunts that refreshed the men,
ory of former years. An original
poem entitled "Jingles" was read
by Mrs. Stella CoWan in which
was presented the history of
each member of the family cir
Gle. Songs and recitations were
also contributed.
After an evening of merri-
ment which will always be re-
membered by those who partici-
pated, the company concluded
the eventful occasion by the
singing of "God Be With You
Til We Meet Again"
The following relatives and
friends were also present: Mr..
and Mrs. Thorp, Of Mott, N,
Dak.; Mrs. George White, of
Brentford, So. Dak.; Mr.. and
Mrs. B. L. Smith, of Conde, So.
OAK; Mrs. Charles Middleton, Mr..
and Mrs. S. O. Landen and Miss
Ruth Pfeiffer, of Pomona.

BRITISH COLUMBIA TOURIST
 CROP" VALUED $2O, ,OO0, ,OOO

VANCOUVER, B. C., Sept, s. Twenty million dollars is the esti- mated value of the tourist crop in British Columbia this year, accord ing to calculations made by J. Reg inald Davison, publicity commissioner fvv the city. He said these calcula- tions are figured on very conserva- tive basis.
 At least third of this sum is fig ured as having come to the city of Vancouver, so that it is doubtful ii any industry in the city, not eS' cluding lumber and shipbuilding, puts as much money into circulation in this city as the tourist industry, ac- corling to MT. Davison.

DHAYTON-JCNKIN WEDDING;

MrS. Cora Margaret Junkm was married to Mir. Thomas B. Drayton last evening, the Rev.. Duane Earl Carter performing the ceremony. Miss Florence Leorsrd was bridesmaid MT Curtis Morford best man, and Mr. Harry Hoben master of ceremonies. Those present at the wedding, and at the supper served immediately after wards, were limited to close personal friends.
 A pretty and unusual feature in- troduced was the reservation of q place for Mir. Joseph Eihlers, life long intimate friend of the groom who had pledged himself in boyhood days to be present at such an event. Mr. Eihlers is professor in the Unlver- sity of Tsin Tsin, China, but despite the distance it was playfully prssum- ed he would appear at the very last moment, with apologies for being late. q, The bride, Detroit girl originally, is we'll known in California and Alaska both for her charm of manner and her unusual attainmentS in various lines of philosophical inquiry.
 The groom is professional writer whose productions until recently have been confined principally to the fields of sociology and ethics. During the past year or so he has turned his at tention mainly to political writings, and as the Alaska representative of the Henry Ford International Weekly and many of the chief newspapers of the middle and eastern States, he has attracted great attention outside through his persistent attacks upon the system of bureau government and the conservation policy as practiced in Alaska, and has drawn down upon himself number of equally bitter at Jacks from leading conservationists in the States. His articles are beginning to be considered in publishing circles as extremely dangerous to political measures and policies supposed to be permanently and firmly established.
 The bride also has had a large ex- perience in journalism and is herself unusually handy with a pen.
 Many beautiful gifts were received by the newly-weds.
