PIERRE BANKER TAKES LIFE
B. A. Cummins, Widely Known AS
Financier and Business Man,
Commits Suicide

B. A. Cummins, known to nearly
every resident of this section OF
the state as Burt committed
suicide at Pierre on Monday fore
noon. According to the reports
that come from Pierre, Mr.. Cum
Minis appeared at the bank with
no indication of which finally re-
suited, but shortly afterward his
body was discovered in the build
ing occupied by the Fist National
Bank Of which he was the head.
He has been a resident of Pierre
for nearly thirty years and has
been prominent in the business af-
fairs of that city. He is survived
by a wife and one daughter.
No cause is given for the act
and the Pierre Capital Journal has
the following to say regarding the
affair:
1T is but natural that such a
tragedy should cause not only
grief, but because of his Official
position in the bank, all kinds OF
surmises and rumors. 1t is we'll
known, however, that banking con
ditions in this city are in better
shape than in any city in The
northwest. This being a holiday,
the banks are not open for bust
ness, but it is of interest to every
one to know that the showing at
the bank at the close Of business
night was most excel
lent. Mr.. Cummins did a great
deal Of loan and banking business
outside Of regular banking chan
nels. These notes were taken in
the name Of Bennett e. Cummins,
instead Of being regular bank pa
per and therefore whatever bust
ness relations may have resulted
in his private financial affairs,
these transactions would have no
significance as to the local bank
ing affairs.

WHEELER-BROOKS POST
ANTICIPATES LARGE
THINGS FOR YEAR 1922

According to the latest statistics
the PA various Legion posts oven
South Dakota had a membership
last year of l1,7S7 and we are GLAD
to note that this number has grad
ually raised until at the present
time it is 14,l64. Our local Post
adds to this strong organization
with a membership Of more than
100 men and is one of the strong
est posts in western South Dakota
1t has been our policy to boost and
push every bit of good legislation
possible along with the other posts
Of the state, and the ensuing year
will find Whceler-Brooks Post
looming up" more than ever in
Legion policies.
Some Of the legislation matters
enacted upon. passed during 1921,
are as follows:
The Foreign Language Bill
was finally made law after hard
fighting on the part of the Legion.
Soldiers preference for public
appointments.
Unlawful wearing of insignia.
Appropriations to complete dor
mitory at Bookings.
Compelling teachers to take oath
Of allegiance to the United States
Resolution to Congress request
ing the establishment Of a hospital
for disabled at FIT. Meade.
Appropriation of $4,000 for Blu
reau Of eXservice men, leaving no
estate.
Making Armistice Day a legal
holiday.
Permitting wives and widows Of
Veterans over 60 years Of age adj
mittance to the State soldiers
home.
Voting on bonds Of S6,000,O0O
and payment of bonus.
A resolution to Congress request
ing enactment Of legislation is
under consideration for benefit of
ex-service persons. 1t seems as
though the man putting UP the
biggest fight in Congress at the
present time in favor of the ma
tional bonus is Senator Watson Of
Pa. 1t is predicted by those who
know that early in 1922 will see a
bill passed by Congress which will
allow neat sum to those who
have served. The Legion will no
doubt play their part in putting
this bill through.
If you are a member of Wheeler
Brooks Post you will do we'll to
pay your dues for this year and by
so doing be among the first to lay
claim to your allotted share.
1t is the desire that next sum-
mer will find a Legion hut" in
Philip with reading room and bill
lard table and office we'll equip

Dues should be sent to Officer E.
M. Deller, early in January.

NEWS FROM THE WILD
CATS OF OIL CREEK

What really happens to real es-
tate values when oil fields are de-
veloped is well illustrated by the
following news article which was
widely circulated throughout the
United States last week. We take
the account from the Pierre Capt.
tai Journal: q
Last week there was sale Of
Usage Indian lands which will go
down in history as the greatest
land sale ever held for the amount
of property transferred These
we're Indian lands in the oil dis
trict Of Oklahoma and a grand
total of S7.267 800 was realized. One
quarter section sold for 100000,
others for more than 100000 each.
and OF course some went as low as
$500 a quarter. In all there were
eighty-two tracts sold, but des-
cription of the proceedings por-
trayed in Tulsa daily, received
by B. A. Cummins of this city,
shows that even the great oil com
panies were frantic in their bid
ding for these lands. This is sim
ply a showing of what may happen
in this section when oil is finally
brought in. Nearly million dol
lars paid for a quarter section of
land sounds like a dream, but
these eighty-two pieces Of land
scattered over the oil belt of Ok
lahoma, sold for nearly $8,000,000.
The pioneer-review. [volume] (Philip, Haakon County, S.D.) 1920-current, 1922-01-05

Just imagine what kind of state
land sale there will be in the north
west portion Of this state some
day when oil is discovered. With
all the natural gas that we have
and have had for twenty-eight
years there is every reason to feel
confident that before many years
this oil belt will be opened up so
as to beeene well defined field.
Then the Capital-Jouranl in its re-
gular daily issues of sixteen and
thirty-two pages published in a
city of one hundred thousand pop
ulation, will tell the people of
other prospective oil fields, similar
news to that which the Tulsa pa
per brings US this week. 1t is sure
ly great to'be in a real oil BOOM"
A Georgia politician, long in the
public eye, is quoted as having
contributed the following jest to
the long list of railroad jokes"
"One day, said he, Il was wait
ing for train. One hour, two
hours, three hours, passed. but no
train. Just as | was about to make
arrangements for vehicle to drive
me to the next town, the station
agent said
/ wouldn't go to that trouble,
sir. That train will be along soon
now.
" What makes you think SOP
T" Well he said, I'm pretty GER
tain it will. Here comes the con-
ductor's dog now.
