Charged With Taking Fish From

Traverse Tuesday and arrested VIM

Hohenstein. all of Browns Valley,
who are charged with taking fish
from the waters of Lake Traverse
in Roberts county, S. D., by use of a
sein contrary to the laws of this
state.
They were brought to Sisseton
and arraigned before Justice Prin-
diville, Frank McKenna appearing
for the state, where they entered a
plea of not guilty, and by mutual
agreement their trial was adjourned
to February 49, The defendant,
VIM. Paul, was admitted to bail in
the sum of $500, and the other de-
PENDANTS were dismissed.
1t seems that Paul has other ac-
cOmplishments than merely being a
fisherman. He acted as attorney
for the defendants and is said to
have done full justice to the job.
This case is the outgrowth of
numerous complaints that have
from time to time been reported of
violations of different people at this
lake who make practice Of coming

HOW THE PEOPLE ALONG THE
DIFFERENT ". r.. DIS PLAY.
ED SANTA CLAUS no
THEIR CARRIERS

| The accompanying picture is typi-
cal OF the scenes along the different
mail routes out of Sisseton during
the past few weeks, while those
along the routes We're playing Santa
Claus to their carriers
We were in hopes that in our
mention of the gifts received we
could have all six routes represent
| ed, but it seems that routes four
and five failed to become infected
with the spirit of giving, and for
this reason we are compelled to
show them on the absent list.
Following are the lists of pres
ents and the name of the giver
along routes one, two, three and six:
Route 1, P. H. Davis, carrier:
Fourteen lbs. of beef from Nels
Halberg, 1 rooster and pumpkin
from Dick Eggers, one dollar in
cash from Richard Johnson, a 12-lb
turkey from W. B. Varland, pack
age of cigars from Rev G. II. Stef-
fen, . dozen eggs from A. X Eggen,
a Glib turkey from Clarence Mater
S Yellow Stone Trail cigars from
Henry Cuffe, a crochet tidy for Mrs
Davis from Mrs. Johanna Halberg,
20 lbs of beef from Axel AndersonS
12 lbs. of beans from Miss Molly
Halberg, IL lbs. pork and 10 lbs. of
beef from Andrew Nordstrum, two
dollars in cash from Adolph Halberg,,
5 cigars from C. Swenson, an en-
broidered Turkish towel for Mrs.
Davis from Mrs. Kate Sjogren, two
dollars in cash from p j. Weckmsn.
sack oats from Casper Holman.
Route 2, G. O. Kivley, carrier:
Sack of corn from Joe Hannasch,
sach of corn from August Schuna-
man and a nice piece of pork from
Herman Schunaman.
Route 3, Chas Larrabee, carrier.
Sack of corn from Gust Gjer-
mundson, sack of corn from Paul
Just, box Yellow Stone cigars fror
Ed. Twittero, sack of oats fnm Fred
Schaker and sack OF oats from
Martin Hanson.
Route 6, c. C. Burton, carrier:
Sack of oats from Knute Trund-
son, dressed pig from Andrew Ivec-
son, 2 dressed chickens from j. j..
Bothum, sour kraut from Frank L.
Wilson. corn and sack of nuts from
Jas. Roth and sack oats from j. A.
Nordstum.
We wish to say in behalf of the
carriers that while everything re-
ceived was greatly appreciated, yet
the thing most highly priced by
them is the spirit in which the things
were given. They feel that their
efforts to serve their patrons faith
fully is not overlooked, and all of
which will serve as an inspiration
and make the road ahead smoother
and further effort less trying.

Greater-Vermont meeting in Rutland
in November suggested a certain num-
Der Of wastefu and loose jointed IN
certainties in the State organizations
some Of which seem almost inevitable
in any sort Of governing device which
men can devise.
/ But wise man has said about sys-
TENS Of all sorts, that if you have the
right men to run them, you get the
right results, even if the systems have
many faults; and, if the wrong men
are running them, the most perfect
systems will give wrong results. In
the last analysis, the element Of per
sonality is the vital one.
The Vermont State system Of edu-
cation has been turned over and over
several times in its history, in the at
tempt TO secure the ideal form Of or
ganization, and its present form has
its disadvantages, perhaps unavoid-
able Any organization for a State
system Of education is bound to have
disadvantages because the problems
involved are complicated. Any State
Commissioner Of Education works I'M
der difficulties, being called upon in
most such organizations Of service -
shoulder great responsibilities, and
without being granted the unquestion-
ed authority which usually goes with
heavy responsibilities. The sharing
Of responsibility between the State
Board Of Education and the State
Commissioner Of Education may be,
probably is. the best and safest way in
which the work Of the department can
be done: but il leaves the State Com
missioner in a position which demands
a very level and very cool head, and
great deal Of patient tenacity OF pur-
pose. A too impulsive aggressive vis-
ionsry man in that place would involve
himself and everybody else, in hope
less confusion by taking action for
which he had not the authority; on
the other hand a man lacking IN con
science or energy, with any faint Of
passivity in his nature would soon fall
back on taking no action al all, and
acquire 70 perfection, the st.te-ofic-
iars most perricious and inzidious

minded man would merely leave the
educational element on one side and
use his ofice to make political capital
Tor himself.

towns where they have lived. They
are the kind Of family who furnish the

Mr.. Dempsey proved to have capaci-
ties Of the intellectual sort, for his
career at Boston University was un-
usually brilliant, combining high
standing in his studies with leadership
in student activities, especially must
cal. The faculty Of the University
gave him a fellowship for European
study, and the horizon Of the Yankee
boy was widened by an experience Of
university life abroad.
Then he came home and soberly,
steadily settled into the harness of
educational work in Vermont and
Massachusetts,. For nine years he
was superintendent Of school in st.
Johnsbury, where he succeeded in
frightening the schoel year for rural
schools, recognizing the course Of
study. started manual training, and
won the confidence Of all the citizens.

experience in Massachusetts, carrying
through reforms and improvements IN

numbers Of rural schools. And then,

COMMISSIONER DEMPSEY

Like all other states, like all other
human organizations, Vermont does
not find il easy to hit on exactly the
right way to utilize the cash and
energy available to run the State gov
eminent. Unlike some Of her sisters
she has never had to struggle with the
dark forces Of political corruption, but
there are plenty Of other complications
which beset men when they try to act
together intelligently and wisely. The

wering. Such lovers Of the quick anC
impulsive would turn away, too i'm.
patient to notice that this mental
habit has one result, that Mr.. Demp-
sey never has to take back anything
he says, or to see that the very quiet
and observant eyes are also very kind
and are on the lookout more to see
what is best for Vermont schools, than
how their owner may say something
clever, or make a point that will bring
him personal credit.
But Vermonters who detest and dis
trust the glib, smooth-spoken promis-
er, have the right man at the head Of
their State System Of Education, a
man who knows how to set sail with a
level keel over rather troublesome
complications Of organizations, who
can keep his head, can see essentials,
can fern far-reacking plan, and then
steadily, with all the patience neces-
sary, lay the foundations for ii and
unweariedly work for its realization.
Mr.. Dempsey would never be able TO
stampede a National Convention into
taking action they would regret after
the excitement was over; but he seems
TO be turning out exactly the right
sort Of man to direct the school activ-
tiles Of Vermont He has the quality,
so essential for anyone working in a
small, not-wealthy, old, and conserva-
tive state like Vermont, the capacity
70 take the materials at hand, and
build with them; instead Of spinning
visionary dreams Of how finer things
might be built with other materials.
The stuff Of Vermont seems to be
plenty good enough as raw material
for this keen-eyed realist who knows
from experience with life that the use
you make Of your raw material, is
what determines the nature OF the
product.
Mr. Dempsey is decidedly one who
does not wear his heart on his sleeve,
(which is not the fashion in Vermont
anyhow; but the quality Of his work
for Vermont education 50 far, shows
that in whatever safe place he keeps
his heart, il is very warm with the
most genuine idealistie hopes FOR our
and with the heartiest sym
patty for all Vermont boys and girls
who depend on his wisdom and
strength for the improvement Of their
schools. Banner.
