Hail Loss In State
Not Big This year

Pierre, S. D.,-With the usual
chance for hail storms of very
great extent nearly passed the ha-
il insurance department has up to
the present time received claims
for only 800, according to w. n.
Van Camp, head of the hail insur-
ance department. Last year the
claims filed at this time numbered
several thousand and the indicat-
ions are the department will not
be called on to pay any great los
ses this year although the num-
ber of farmers taking hail insur-
ance was greater than ever before,
according to Mr. Van Camp.
"Of course" said that official,
I'VE cannot tell what the next ten
days will bring forth and there is
always chance for a hail storm
through the entire summer, but
5he greatest losses the department
has suffered has been not later
than July Is and that is now only
short distance away If there
are no great losses before that
time the chances are we will have
considerable sum to add to our
reserve in this department"
In addition to the 800 claims f.
led there is also about 400 claims
in coming largely from Day coun-
ty where there were quite heavy
losses to crops on June r. The
state law, as passed by the legis-
lature, puts hail insurance into
effect in the northern part of the
state, including Day county, or,
June ID so that the hail storm
there came before the insurance
was in effect.
When asked regarding these
| claims Mr.. Van Camp said:
I'VE would be glad to pay these
claims to the farmers who had 10
sses if the law permitted, but j.
does not as the law is very clear
on this subject and it would be
violation to make such payment.
and it is unfortunate for those
farmers that this bar is in tn,
hail insurance act"
Asked if the next legislature
would be asked to change this por
tion of the law and also provide
for reimbursing the losses sustai,
ed, Mr.. Van Camp replied: Il do
IT know but it is very likely the
next session will be asked to take
some such action"
How many townships in Da
'ounty were hit by the big hal
storm of June r.. Mr. Van Cam
was asked. There were parts o.
I, even or eight townships suffer
ing in that storm" he replied
Speaking further on the fey
number Of losses that have bce''
recorded 50 far this season tht

it takes hot weather to make hal
storms. when there is plenty %
rain like there has been this seas
on the atmosphere does not reacl
the high temperatures that it do
cs in dry weather. 1t seems ode
that it takes heat to make ice -;
sort of paradox, but the greates'
chances for a big hail storm is
Just after an extremely hot day
There has been plenty of rain this
season, few hot days and the res.
ult has been a small amout OF
hail. OF course, do not misunder-

REGARDING AUDITORIUM
By l.. T. Martin

For the benefit Of those who are
skeptical as 90 the safety Of The
auditorium, wish 10 say that the
Building Committee made a thor
ough inspection Of the construction
and that they have perfect con
fidence in the contractor, Mr. John
Gelin, as an architect.
This building is trussod in every
way, and is absolutely safe. The
propaganda put out in regard to
this building should be stopped. All
good citizens should put their faith
in the business men whom they put
in charge Of letting the contr ict.
II would have been nice to build
fire proof structure costing from
100000 to s75,000.00 but with
the many issues the people are call
ed upon to finance, II was thought
best az this time 10 build something
that ould answer the needs Of the
citizens Of Lubbock temporarily
Then we trust that we IAN build a
city hall and auditorium which will
answer the needs for all time 20
come. While this building may not
be so much for looks, rest assured,
II IL like the dutchmans wife, Il
is bully for stout.

lands. and no sale may be made, I'M
less the congressional embargo is re-
moved by order Of the Secretary Of
the Interior. Indians OF tribal blood
of one-half 10 threc-fourths are en-
powered to dispose Of their surplus,
but not their homestead lands, while
Indians Of less than one-half Indian
blood may dispose Of any or all Of
their land property at VIII.
Sell Surplus Lands.
The swank bill would permit the
Indians Of quarters or more OF
Indian blood to sell their surplus
lands only, and then under the sup
ervision Of the Secretary Of the In
terror, but the bill does not give any
additional authority for disposal Of
the homestead lands. Under terms
of the bill, If the Indian desired TO
sell his surplus holdings, he would
make application 10 the Secretary,
who causes the land to be advertised
and sold to the highest bidder at pub
lie auction. Soldiers Of the Spanish
and World wars are given prefer
ence 10 take the property at the high
est bid made. Protection is afforded
the Indian owner in the Secretary's
authority 10 reject the bid II not sat

Payment From Sale.
The payment and disbursement Of
the Indians money derived from
such sales would be under direction
Of the Secretary as means Of CEN
serving the Indians funds, and all
sales are 20 be made on ten years
time, with privilege of the purchaser
to discharge the payments within
five years. Cash sales Of the prop
erty are not contemplated By the
bill. After the first payment is made
on the land, under the Swank bill,
the land which now is not taxable
would go on the State, county and
other tax rolls, the taxes 70 be paid
by the purchaser. In case Of de-
fault in payments the land would re-
vert 20 the Indian owner, and auto
matically be relieved Of State and
other taxes

KIDNAPPING CHARGE
PUT AGAINST FATHER
Ross M. Hampshire OF Steu-
benville Alleged To Have
Stolen His Own Son

80 Ross M. Hampshire, brought back
to Mt. Vernon on kidnapping charge,
was arraigned before Justice Harter
Monday morning. He waived examin-
alton and was bound over to the COM
mon plcas court under $500 bond
which was given.
1t is alleged that Hampshire kid.
mapped his own son, Donald Hamp-
shire, who had been given by the
Knox county court into the custody
and keeping Of his grand father, Aus
tin Wright When the parents of the
boy were divorced the custody of the
child WAS given to the maternal grand
father, Austin Wright.
Hampshire subsequently remarked
and now IS living. 1t is said, in Steu-
benvills. A month or six weeks ago,
1t is told, Hampshire came to Mt. Yer
non and, going to the Wright home,
on the prstext that he wanted to take
the boy to see his paternai grand
mother, was permitted to take him
away.
Instead of returning In 80 minutes,
as he is alleged to have promised,
Hampshire is said to have taken the
boy to Steubenville. Orders and cita.
tions to appear for contempt OF court
having been ignored by Hampshire, q
warrant alleging kidnapping was is
sued in Justice Harter's court. Deputy
Sheriff Walker went to Steubenville
Saturday afternoon with ths warrant
and returned with Hampshire.
