HISTORICAL
SOCIETY HAS THE
OLDEST DAKOTA
NEWSPAPER

The State Historical Society of
Wisconsin has recently purchased files
of the first newspaper published in
Dakota. These files, which were OBJ
tanned from Hon. George w. Kings
bury, of Yankton, South Dakota, in
clude the Dakotian, The Weekly Da-
kotian, and The Union and Dakotian,
which were published at Yankton by
Mr.. Kingsbudy in 1861-1875; also lat
er papers covering the period 1875
1902. The early history of the publ
cation is particularly interesting. Mr.
Kingsbury, the octogenarian editor,
who went to Dakota from Wisconsin,
writes: The publication in 1861
was to assist in the election of dele
gate to Congress and the first legis-
lature, which occurred in September.
There was nothing for a newspaper to
do thereafter till the legislature met
in the spring Of 1862. Then we were
besieged by the hostile Indians from
late in August, 1862, until some time
early in October, during which time
our printing office was given up to the
refugees from the town and country;
our type was placed in it's cases upon
the floors and the women and children
placed their beds and bedding upon
| it ="
This file of newspapers will aid the
State Historical Society in it's efforts
to follow the fortunes of the thous-
ands of Wisconsin people who emf
grated to the Dakotas.

CURTIS SEEKS
7OPUT RESERVE
in ONE BANK

MARION-Aftei a conference with
President-elect Harding, Senat o r
Charles Curtis, Kansas, Republican
whip, announced he will suggest
amendments to the federal reserve
plan that will replace the present sys-
tenn with United States bank.
Mr.. Curtis will call for return to the
original idea of the ,Aldrich commits
zion which conducted the first investi-
cation for establishment of reserve
system. Mr.. Curtis favors a single
bank with branches, rather than the
II regional banks. The plan smacks
of Harding Endorsement. It is recalled
that Gov. Cox stressed the assertion
that Republicans were plotting to al
ter the federal reerve system and
throw it into the halds of Wall Street.

ment when number Of paper mills

orders are received o move the ac-
cunulated stocks.
Appleton is dependen, almost en-
tirely on the paper industry and a
slump in the paper market affects
hundreds of families.
Paper mill men believe that bust

have only small stocks on hand, but it
is. feared that orders will not be suf-
ficient to empty the warehouses, which
are now filled to the roofs.
