PROF. LAWRENCE
ACTING PRESIDENT
STATE BOARD OF ENT 8
FILLS VACANCY IN MADISON
STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.

The committee on appointments of
the State Board of Regents, in session
yesterday because of the death at this
place last Sunday of DIR. j. w. Hes
ton, president of the Madison State
normal, agreed upon selecting Prof.
B. M. Lawrence as acting president
of the school until such time as they
should again meet to make perma
nent choice. For many years Prof.
Lawrence has served the school both
as registrar and as instructor. He is
familiar with the policies and work
of the institution and is qualified in
every way to fill the position of act
ing president with credit to himself
and the regents responsible for his
selection.
At a faculty meeting recently 1t
was decided to carry on the work of
the normal uninterruptedly, except
upon the day that is to be set aside
for the funeral services of DR.. Heston,
the lately deceased head of the school.
Interest from now on will center
about the choice of new president
for the Madison normal. A number
of names have been suggested. Two
of them local, but when the regents
meet to provide head for the school
this city's interest in the matter is
not at all likely to be considered.
The school is a state institution
and serves a great section in this part
of South Dakota. hence the applicant
for president must be of broad guage
in vision, of liberal scholarly attain
ments and young enough to take his
position seriously.

HAZEL NAMED
ADJUTANT GENERAL
MUST BE RATT-
FLED BY LEGISLATURES UN.
LESS NORRIS RESIGNS.

Pierre, Feb. 3.-Governor Norbeck
today announced the appointment of
Colonel w. A. Hazel, of Aberdeen, as
adjutant general of the state to sue
ceed w. A. Morris, of Redfield, whose
term expired some months ago.
What appears to be the correct ex-
planation Of the situation in the ad-
jutant generals office of South Da-
kota and the controversy over the ap-
pointment of new adjutant general,
has been reached by several local peo-
pie who are closely in touch with such
affairs. The situation as generally
understood is that there had been
strong agitation in some quarters for
the appointment of w. A. Hazel of
Aberdeen. to replace w. A. Morris,
present incumbent of the adjutant
generals office, although further
facts of the matter have been lacking.
AS the situation is understood here
1t has been said that the reappoint-
ment of General Morris was not made
at the last session of the state legis-
lature. He is therefore 'holdover"
but according to the law, it is declar-
ed, unless he resigns, the legislature
must ratify the appointment of any
one named by the governor to sue
ceed him. 1t is reported from Red
field that General Morris has no in
tention of resigning until his work is
completed and in shape to turn over
to successor.

ANOTHER PIONEER
PASSES AWAY
CARL TIL OMPS SON FOR MANY
YEARS A LAKE COUNTY
FARMER.

AT o'clock last evening another
resident of Madison left the cares of
earth and passed into the great be-
yond. Carl Thompson, sc years of
age, lacking but few weeks, and 1.
man Of large family, answered the
call after sharp struggle against an
attack of pneumonia that followed a
period of depleted health.
The deceased was for many years
a very successful Lake county farm
er. Only last fall he gave up active
farming operations and moved his
family to this city. He purchased a
residence on Lincoln avenue and
First street N, and it was there that
he was laid low from a disease that
summons whosoever it will.
Mr.. Thompson was one of the more
devoted and active members of the
Lake Madison Lutheran church. He
was a man of exemplary Christian
character, kind, tender husband, q
devoted parent and a friend to all.
The time for the funeral has not
yet been arranged but will be an
nounced later.

c. J. WAKEFIELD SELLS INTEREST
TO JACK AND LEO CRANEY.

Jack Craney and his brother, Leo,
have become financially interested In
the c. J. Warfield wholesale business
through the purchase, very recently,
Of half interest in that well-estab-
lished and successful concern. This
means an additional expert selling

sion of effort in supplying a good
territory in this section of the state.
Connections, tobaccos, paper and
soda fountain syrups are the special
ties handled by this firm that will
have its entire force at work by
March /.
Mr.. Warfield has shown excellent
judgment in selecting Madison as "a
center from which to distribute his
different lines of goods. His repre-
sentatives now cover the whole coun-
ty and also much trade territory adj
jacent.
1t can be a question of only a few
years when the new firm will enjoy
a patronage locally that larger whole
sailing firms would be glad to con-
troll.

SENATOR NEWBERRY'S
BARREL CAMPAIGN
WAS A "PATRIOTIC DUTY" is
ASSERTED IN TRIAL.

Grand Rapids, Mich, Feb. "a
patriotic duty" was Senator Truman
s. Newberry's answer today to the
charges that he was elected to the
senatorship in a barrel campaign.
Newberry's opponent in 1918 was
Henry Ford. James o. Murfin, attor-
ney for the defense, asserted that a
patriotic duty drove the 134 men on
trial here charged with frauds in
connection with that election, to do
everything possible to elect New
berry. Murfin's statement was in an
swer to claims made by Prosecutor
Frank Daley, picturing campaign
where enormous amounts of money
were used to purchase votes and buy
political suppers. Daily claimed pay
ments by the committee in charge of
Newberry's campaign were practical
ly always made in cash and claimed
that no receipts were taken.

Judge Landis vigorously denounc-

The nonpartisan league also was
attacked by the Chicago jurist.
II understand some candidates are
flirting with votes of the nonpartisan

get some republican or democratic
votes and then the nonpartisan votes.
Let those fellows content themselves
with those kind of votes. They hope
to get in power by split vote Of
good citizens. Forget the republican

and beat them. The socialists, the
I. w. W., and the Nonpartisan league
are all the same-their fundamentals
are 4he same."

ROMANCE OF
THE WAR
WIFE WOULD ADOPT BABY OF
HER HUSBAND AND ENG
LISH GIRL.

New York, Feb. 3.-Miss Emily
Knowles, an English girl, who met
Perley r.. Spiker of Baltimore while
he was at an aviation training camp
in England, was admitted to the Unit
ed States with her baby today after
being detained at Ellis island while
the authorities were considering the
plea of Spiker's wife for permission
to adopt the baby and the offer of
Guy s. Spiker, brother of the avia-
tor, to marry the girl.
A telegram received at the island
today from the department of labor
ordered that the mother and child be
admitted to the country for three
months and placed in the care of
William and Kate Butterfly of Fall
River, Mass. A bond of $1,000 re-
Quired of them has been furnished by
Mr.. and Mrs. Spiker. immigration
officials here regarded the admission
for three months as 'most extraordi-
nary" and were at loss to explain it.
There is nothing in the conditions of
admission, 1t is explained, to prevent
Guy Spiker, from marrying the girl as
he offered to do in an affidavit SUBJ
mitted to the immigration authori-
ties, although he had never seen her.
Such a marriage, assuming he is an
American citizen, would permit her
to stay in the United States. Mrs.
Spiker's affidavit contains the follow
ing:
my husband and Miss Knowles
formed friendship which ripened
into something more than friendship.
Miss Knowles is not immoral under
the immigration laws. She Is . iov-
able. gentle. refined girl. I.would
welcome her into my home. / know
the moral character and tendencies of
my husband and know them to be
beyond reproach."
