DEADWOOD OF

G A NJ BLIN NG HOUSES AND RED

DISAPPEAR.

Deadwood, April 26.-Old Dead
wood, with the Inauguration of its
new mayor, w. S. Adams, will become
thing of thief past-ancient history,
as it were.
i The remaining gambling houses
and the remnants of the red light dis
trict are to be cleaned up and Dead
wood, the beauty spot of the west,
will put on it's new dress of morality.
Thus ends the bitter fight waged
for the last 10 years upon immorali-
ty and vice of all kinds. Such dives
as the old Green Front" probably
one of the most notorious this coun-
try has ever known, and the MAN
sion" pass out of sight and memory.
The women voters are held respon-
sible for this last and successful eff
fort at cleanup. There were nearly
as many women as men voted
at last Tuesdays election, as they
cast 521 votes while the men cast
but 592 votes.

PACKERS TIED UP
BY EMBARGO
AT STOCK YARDS
WRECKS CATTLE AND HOG
TRADE.

Sioux City, April ga back
fire" of the switchmen's strike in the
form of congested freight traffic
dealt the live stock market severe
blow today. Transportation east of
Chicago has been placed under a
strict embargo. The railroads are re-
fusing local shippers cars for that
district and the fresh meat outlet Of
packers here is securely tied up.
The effect was demoralizing on
both the cattle and hog trade. The
bottom was literally knocked OUT
of the market and prices, already hit
ting the toboggan at a lively clip,
were pounded heavily again. The
day brought fresh losses of Is q soc
per hundredweight on porkers while
sufficient amount was taken off
killing steers to make them figure
more than 81 lower compared to the
close of last week.
Added to the retail trouble is an
over abundance of material. Both
cattle and hog receipts are continu-
ing liberal as farmers are anxious to
liquidate their live stock at this time
preparatory to spring work. Approx.
mately 1900 cattle and 46,500 hogs
have been received so far this week
against $500 cattle and 20,5OO hogs
for the same period last week.

MONEY MARKET IS
TIGHTENING UP
SIOUX CITY BANKERS OBLIGED
TO REFUSE LOANS FOR BUILD
ING PURPOSES.

Sioux City, April 26. - While
money is being used by the large in
dustries of the country and loaned to
them at high rates of interest, funds
for home building and home buying
are necessarily scarce, it was said yes
terday by George Sinclair, vice pres
ident of the Woodbury. County Sav-
ings bank. When railroads are able to
handle stock and grain and farmers
are able to market their goods, money
will be more free and city loans more
available.
Money is tight" all over the coun-
try, bankers declare. Recent ad-
vances in discount rates are evidences
of government efforts to discourage
initiation. Industries of the country
such as the railroads, are greatly in
need of money at this time and are
paying high rates in order to secure
it. with such calls upon banks for
loans the banks are forced to discour-
age individuals or companies wishin G
to borrow for home building pur-
poses.
"We have given preference TO
loans to Sioux City people as far as
we have been able" said Mr.. Sin
clair. "but there is a limit and in the
face of the great demand for money
now, many of them have to be re-
fused. In Des Moines, the same con-
dition prevails. There is less money
to spend for home building now while
the large industries of the country
are making such demands upon the
banks. When the railroads are able
to take care of the stock and grain
we will have a surplus of money
which can be used for home build
ing"

KILLING CATTLE
BENEDICT BROTHERS, OF IDA
COUNTY, LOSE HEAVILY
ON ANIMALS.

Holstein, Ia, April ga large
number of cattle which the Benedict
Brothers brought down from, Canada
and placed on their big farm in Blaine
township, have died during the past
few weeks. The cattle, which have
never eaten corn, did not take to that
method of satisfying their hunger,
and tame hay was just as repugnant
to them, but wild hay, scattered out,
would be eaten up clean, and oats
were also favorte grain with them.
Many of the cattle, when examined,
were found to be ravaged by grub
worms, which kept them in a poor
condition. Cows with calves by their
side have been victims, and Manager
Sherwood Benedict has large num-
ber of these orphans on his hands.

LAKE co. SCHOOL CHILDREN
HEALTHIEST IN U. S.A.

The National Association for the
prevention of tuberculosis has for
some years carried on the Modern
Health Crusader movement among
the school children of the United
States. At first only few schools
took part, but the movement has
grown until almost every one in the
country school as we'll as the city
schools has entered into the work.
The fall campaign for 1919 gives
South Dakota the lead in this work
and Lake county leads in South Da-
kota. So We are very proud to an
nounce that Lake county, South Da-
kota leads the whole United States
in the Modern Health Crusader work.
We have five banners, for Lake
county. Miss Wadden's and Miss
Jones' classes in the Lincoln school
won the first, Miss Johnson's in the
Garfield won first, Miss Goodroad's a
second and Miss Browns at Washing
ton won a second. This means some
good hard work among the children
and we are all proud of them.
There is another report to be sent
in for the last fifteen weeks work
this spring and we hope to get some
prizes on these reports, also.
The banners won will be delivered
in the near future and will make 2
prominent part of the display work
in the Modern Health Crusader Pa
geant to be held on the normal cam
pus May IA.

have received letters from state and
