prohibited any member Of the COM
mission from purchasing or in any
manner acquiring real estate or any
interest therein within 10 miles of
the site selected for the capital within
one year from the passage of the act
and from being directly or indirectly
interested in any contract.
Act Approved in March
The act creating the commission
was approved on the 9Th day of
March. 1883, and it Is now difficult
to imagine the excitement and agita-
ton which it occasioned. General
Hughes, one of the commissioners, re-
sided at Yankton. He was quite active
In securing the passage of the law.
BY reason of this the feeling against
him in Yankton and vicinity was so
aroused that it no doubt would have
been exceedingly unpleasant for him
to have retained his residence there.
He later took up his residence in Bis
marck. Charges were banded in all
directions to the effect that the pass
age of the act had been secured by
the grossest acts of corruption. There
Is no doubt that many people looked
upon the relocation of the capital as
a golden opportunity for amassing
wealth through real estate investments
in the vicinity of the location. Posi-
lions on the commission were consid-
cred more desirable than any office
in the gift Of the people of the terri
tory and its members were constantly
followed and importuned for tips on
the location.
I was informed at once that the
understanding between the members
Of the legislature who supported the
measure had been that the capital
should be located at point which
would be fairly accessible to all parts
of the state if the territory should be
admitted as one state and at the
same time would be fairly central as
location for South Dakotas capital,
in case of division, and that 1t was
agreed in view of the sparsity of the
population in North Dakota, and the
much larger number of people in
South Dakota, that it should not 60
to any point in what Is now North
Dakota. considered this agreement,
without which the bill never would
have passed, as morally binding on
me as a commissioner.
The members met in Sioux City.
Iowa, as starting point on the way
to Yankton to organize. We were de-
tanned there several days by my ill
ness. Rumors were current that an
attempt would be made to enjoin the
commission from organizing and that
proceedings for that purpose had been
instituted at Yankton, and that pa
pers were ready for service.
Here let me say that no sooner had
the act become q law than all the
railroads became deeply interested
and they furnished special trains
without expense to the territory or
the commission to carry its members
on their quest for the most suitable
site.
Started From Sioux City
After remaining two or three days
in Sioux City, we boarded train
furnished by the Milwaukee road and
started some time after midnight on
the 3rd day of April for Yankton.
The speed of the train was so timed
that we arrived in Yankton just as
the sun was rising. We were all up
with everything prepared for perfect
ing the organization. We stopped a
few minutes as we drew into Yankton
where the proper motions were made

By b. F. SPALDING

The Territory of Dakota was Gre
ated in 1861. Yankton was made the
capital. 1t was on the Missouri river
about so miles west of the southeast
corner of the territory and approx
mately 400 miles from its northern
boundary and 800 from it's south
western corner The southern halt
of the territory contained far the
greater portion of the population.
It was sparse in all parts, and in
1888 it was still sparse and the rela-
tive proportions remained about the
same. South Dakota was land OF
small farms and except the Black
Hills, Of small operations. The set
tied portion of North Dakota consist
ed almost entirely of farms of great
size which required vast operations
by their owners. The character OF
the people was indicated somewhat
by the relative extent of their opera
lions and industries.
Some will remember Major A. w
Edwards, many years editor of the
Fargo Argus. He sometimes said very
apt and telling things. He is said at
one time to have explained to a
stranger that the difference between
the people Of South Dakota and
those Of North Dakota was that "the
residents Of South Dakota played 10
chips to the dollar and those of
North Dakota, 10 dollars to the
chip"
Large Farms Explained
The reason for the large size of the
farms in North Dakota was that
when the Northern Pacific railroad
was chartered by congress in 1864
provision was inserted in the charter
permitting holders of stock in the
road to exchange it for lands which,
were granted to the railroad to aid
in its construction. The exchange
was to be made on the basis of PAL
for the stock and list selling price
for the lands. On the failure of Jay
Cooke In 1873 and the subsequent
panic and depression this stock be-
came nearly worthless, and hundreds
OF the large stockholders took advan-
tage Of the provision mentioned and
exchanged their holdings for lands
with the result that the odd sections
within the limits Of the land grant
in the eastern part Of the state be-
came great wheat farms. many CON-
priSing several sections each.
In what is now North Dakota, there
were no branch lines of the Great
Northern and its main line extended

Avenue. y
They stopped there to talk,
close by Thorley'S windows, filled
with the reds and oranges, the
hennas and clear yellows. Dusk
was falling, deeply blue and re-

of street lights about them, a
sound of feet hurrying home

WOMEN"

Joyce was of Louisa's blood,
Elizabeth was not; Joyce was
the child of Louisa'S son, Eliza
beth was merely his wife. Yet,
Joyce had thought, Louisa had
cared for her daughter-in-law.
Just Wondering
Now, she wondered. Wonder.
ing, something of her adnira-
tion for her grandmother was
tarnished. It seemed to the
girl so small, so beneath the
older woman, to strike a per-
son deliberately, a person not
equipped to strike back.
What, she asked herself,
could lie behind her grand
mothers calculated references
to Van AlStyne?
She found herself watching,
as time went on. the relations
of the two women and her
eyes gradually opened to the
recurrent, trivial encounters be-
tween them; encounters in
which Elizabeth was always
worSted, always at fault, al
ways, as it were, deliberately
displayed in attitudes Of almost
childish absurdity.
Joyce grew angry for her
mother and angry at her. Irri-
tated. Why doesn't she an
swer back? Why doesn't she
stand up to her? Why is she

frightened? Why does she take

she would have liked to have

women. She remembered that
Hugh Masterson had said to
her, "If you loved me, you'd

from the table with definite
relief. Later, playing bridge at
a neighbor's, she pondered. on
the incident. It was evident
that her granGnother knew Of
the Van Alstyne affair. How
much? Had her knowledge
had anything to do with Eliza
beth's unexplained about-face?
She could not free her mind
Of the thought that it had,
that her grandmother had, in
some way. for some reason,
been an important factor in
Elizabeth's decision. She was
convinced that Mrs. Sheldon's
remarks that evening had been
deeply, maliciouSly motivated.
This conclusion threw an en-
tirely different light upon both
Louisa and Elizabeth. Joyce
had always taken 1t for granted
that her grandmother was fond
Of Elizabeth Sheldon, in a cool,
undemonStrative way. She
treated her like a child, of
course, sometimes like q tire
some child who must be guided,
protected. To Joyce this had
seemed entirely natural. She
had recognized, very early, her
grandmother'S t,rength, her
mothers pliancy, and she knew
that she, Joyce, was Mrs. Shell
don's favorite. But that was 4

it lying down? Looking back,
the girl could review a long
history of similar minor perse-
cutions, which, at the time of
their occurrence, had entirely
escaped her. But now she was
on the alert for them.
Dimly, she began to regard
the two elder women as enemies
in secret, as perpetual, and al
ways unequal, adversaries.
The SheldonS returned to
town early in the season. Joyce,
a little oppressed spiritually
from the unanswered questions
which had been assailing her,
went toward her work with an
absorbed ardor. She liked
everything about it, the daily
sum of knowledge, the pro-
fesSors, the students. She felt
very much alone, very free,
somehow.
Married in August
Yvonne had been married late
in August. Joyce, who had met
and liked the Honorable Regi-
nald prior to the wedding,
missed her friend greatly. Not
alone the knowledge that
Yvonne was leaving her to live
in England depressed her, but
the unalienable fact that, Yvonne
already had left her, completely
and forever, long before her
physical departure, Joyce was
far too fine fibered to wish to

WHY?

Congress placed a tax of l cent per gallon on gasoline and cents per gallon on lubricating oils. The oil companies imme- diately raised the ante to cents per gallon on gasoline without any raise on the Tub oils.
 The gasoline consumer does rot kick at the raise of 1 cent per gallon but wonders just why the oil companies must raise the tax two additional cents. Is it to obviate the cost of collecting and making returns on the per gallon sale or is it to make it hurt the consuming public so much that they will yell their heads off and protest the tax on oils?
 In the past it has been a sort Of a slogan to Soak the Rich" Any time any body of lawmak- CTS believe that they are going to be able to soak the rich through any tax mediums, they had better just soak their heads in a barrel of gasoline and put a torch to it. When will the public learn that it is the ulti- mate consumer who eventually and finally pays the taxes.
 Soak the canner $1.O0 per case for his salmon-and the consumer pays the tax; soak the lumber man $3 per thousand for imported lumber-and the consumer foots the bill; soak the coal dealer $2 per ton for i'm ported coal and in the end the raise is paid for the fellow who burns the coal. AS there are more little fellows on the con- suming end, they pay the big gest share of the taxes.
 Soak the rich, may be a good slogan but in the end it is a bad bOom-a-rang which the poor fellow has to absorb the extra costs.

THE STORY OF THE HEN
San Francisco Mining Exchange

Hard work means nothing to 2 hen. She just keeps on digging worms and laying eggs, regard less of what prognosticators say about the outlook for this or any other year.
 If the ground is hard, she scratches harder.
 If the ground is dry, she digs deeper.
 If it is wet, she digs where 1t is dry.
 If she strikes a rock, she works around it.
 If she gets a few more hours of daylight, she gives us a few more eggs.
 But always she digs up worms and turns them into hard-Shel1- ed profits as we'll as tender pro- fltable broilers.
 Did you ever see a pessimistic hen? Did you ever hear of one starving to death waiting for worms to dig themselves to the surface? Did you ever hear one cackle because work was hard? Not on your life. They save their breath for digging and ti.eir cackles for eggs.
 Success means digging. Are you?
