LASHED IN JAIL
At ROCKVILLE
cuIprits Given Ten Blows on
Bare Back by Court
Order.

Stripped to the waist and with
muscles set, George Kemp. q res
ident of GAINESVILLE. Montgomery
county, Maryland. was lashed to
whipping post in the yard #
the county Jail at Rockville YES
terday afternoon and given ten
welt-bringing blows over the
shoulders with q cowhide whip.
Kemp, the first white man to
receive such punishment at the
hands of Montgomery authorities
for several years. had been found
guilty of wife-beating and meted
the sentence by Police Magistrate
Viett, of Rockville.
Frank Terry, colDred, of Choppers,
had been found guilty Of q similar
offense. and suffered like punish.
ment.
With terror on their faces. the
two prisoners were marched from
their cells to the jail yard and by
Sheriff Alvie A. Moxley and his as
sistants were bound to the post.
Kemp took the first lash with
hardly CULVER, but in spite of his
apparent effort to hide his suffer
ing, means and cries came in answer
to succeeding blows.
The negro, however. took his pun
ishment with less show OF pain than
his white companion. Though his
flesh quivered under the heavy blows,
no sound passed his tightly drawn
lips.
The authorities afterward COM
mented that both men had stood the
ordeal better than those who have
previously undergone this old
fashioned method of bodily punish
ment.
Red welts across the shoulders OF
the men did not prevent them from
declaring that they felt tine.' once
the beatings were completed.
kemp's punishment came Us a
result of a rough and tumble bat.
tie with his wife, the evidence
showed. The fight had arisen out
Of an argument over one Of their
children, and Mrs. Kemp In said to
have been brutally handled.
Terry's offense, It was brought
out In court, was also against his
wife. and said to be more serious.
The whipping post as a punish.
ment for negroes who beat their
wives has been q rather common
sentence in that section of Mary
land during the past few years, but
it has been several years since a
white man has felt the whip lashes

In addition to these men several high
school stars may be found in the
freshman class: Russ Osborne of last
years Cresbard team, Earl WEIGH Of
Madison high school, Stewart, Schmitz
Popowski, Manner, Britzman, Clark,
and several other men who have not
been playing football.
All III all, it looks like State would
have a good team again for 1923. We
expect to put up a good scrap against
Creighton and North Dakota univer-
sity, and the North Dakota Aggies for
the conference title. And State will
meet all these teams on her own floor
this year"
One Of the most interesting games
of the season will be the annual clash
between State college and the Univer-
sity Of South Dakota. State college
was the victor last year in the game
played at Vermillion, and also in the
game played, at Brookings.
Creighton university is expected to
give State The hardest struggle for the
coveted conference title, having beat

well as carrying off the honors in both
games played with the University Of

A OF A

The state Of trade over the country
as reported by Bradstreet's for last
week was fair to good. Satisfactory
total trade with shifting of activity
from primary to final distribution.
Colder weather helps retail trade,
which feels stimulation Of active en-
ployment at high wages. Holiday buy
ing enlarges. Textiles in primary lines
quieter. Print cloths easier. Car stu
alton better and peak of loadings evil
IDENTIFY reached in October, two weeks
later than in 1920. Higher grain prices
help western trade, while good cotton
and tobacco prices spur southern buy
ing. Soft coal prices lower and buy
ers rather indifferent. Northwest has
enough soft coal. Anthracite output
at years peak and prices stiff. Pig
iron and scrap material go lower.
Building active but tie-up threatened
by New York unions. Department
store and mail-order houses active. Ov-
ercoats selling well. Increased demand
for Missouri farm land. Food index
higher on strength in dairy products.
| More declines than advances in com
modities generally. Increase in failures.

Out for Conference
Basketball Title

With a nucleus Of a full team Of all
state stars, South Dakota State col
lege is out to win the state and con
ference basketball titles this ear.
Last year State college had what
was probably the best basketball team
in her history, winning the intercol-
legiate championship Of Minnesota,
North and South Dakota and losing
only to Creighton university Of Oma-
ha. State has only lost one of the
best twelve men it had in the sport
last year.
Frank WEIGH and Carey at for
wards, Lare Thune at center, and
Schultz and George Thompson at
guards last year were the men select
ed for the all-state basketball team.
AlLwere State college players and all
will be on the Brookings squad again
this winter. All of these men, except
ing Thompson, are on the varsity
football squad and they are expected
to be in excellent form. for the open
ing of the hoop season.
Thune at center and Carey at for
ward, are seniors and have been on
the State team since they were fresh.
men. They are relied upon to give
the team speed and strength to win
the titles. Captain Thompson" said

and defense during the past two sea.
sons, and should be an even better
man this season. Schultz at standing
guard is a bear cat at getting the ball
off the opponents back and is a hard
man for opposing forwards to get be-
hind. He will be out again for his old
job this year.
Frank Welch at forward is a soph.
omore agriculture student, and first
gained basketball fame when he cap
tanned the Madison high school team
which won the championship of South

NOT BACKWARD IN EDUCATION

The per capita cost OF education in
for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1922 was $24.79, said Fred l.. Shaw,
state superintendent Of public instruc-
ton in his annual address before the
convention Of South Dakota Education
association. He lGded that the per
capita cost of education according TO
enrolment in the schools, was $116.78,
and that in per capita expenditures for
public education, South Dakota ranks
among the first seven states in the
nation.
"In spite of all we are doing at pres
ent, the farm population is steadily de-
%creasing in proportion to the entire
population OF the country, but the
worst feature of this is that the best
young blood is being literally drawn
out Of the country life, and still there
are many short sighted people who op-
pose the agricultural education Of the
farmers boy and girl. 1t is, as a gen
eral policy, a big mistake to send the
yOutn OF tHe Tural community 10 the
high school Of the city if we expect
them to return to farming for their life
occupation.
"A few years ago the number If stu
dents enrolled in the high schools and
colleges Of the country was many times
smaller than it is today. Higher edu-
cation used to be only for the few. Now
it is for the many. The universities
and colleges, on the other hand, If they
are to meet the needs of the present
day, must not only prepare profession
al men and women and captains of in
dustry, but also must train the workers
in the ranks. The university or col
lege which 10 slow to recognize this
need will have q very limited enroll

Tells of Progress on
, Luce Line Extension

T. C. Cornolly of hutchinson, Mimi,
the former western terminal of the
Luce Electric line, in an interview
stated that the Luce line has been
making great progress on the extern
sion of the line westward this summer
The rOadbed has been graded 80 miles
west of Hutchinson TO Lake Lillian,
which is 100 miles west of Minneapolis.
They have laid the rails into Cosmos,
a distance of % miles. Mr.. Connolly
states that it is a very good grade and
a very good track. They expect to
reach Clara City early next summer
and in a year from now they hope to
be in Madison, Mimi. Their rolling
stock is in fine shape and they have
been doing a flourishing business. The
town of Cosmos, for 80 years without
a railroad, is now booming. Much
building is going on and the future
looks bright for this little city for it
has a large trade territory to draw
from. The line is called the Sugar
Beet Route" because it taps the great
sugar beet country of Minnesota. Mr..
Connolly says that the Luce lire gives
excellent service, running four pas
senger trains each way and two
freights daily.
