ance desires THE' LUADKK to say that the
regular monthly meeting of the Alliance
will he held in Canton, on thu second

II. B. Lund, the newly elected super
intendent of schools, arrived from Va!
poraiso, college last week and was aroui'd
among his friends receiving congratula
tions last Thursday. He paid THE
LEADKH office, a welcome visit. He is
getting ready to .succeed superintendent
Ishain, unless his irrepressible oppo
nent wants office bad enough to contest,
the election. There is a rumor to this
effect but it is hoped that the defeated
candidate, who was so mercilessly snow
ed under that he will never come to the
political surface again, will not permit
his appetite for office to overcome hir, bet
ter judgment.
THE LEADEit job printing department
has been crowded with business for two
months or more, and it is a fact, notwith
standing tlie slanderous insinuations of
the proprietors of the other offices, that
this office has yet to turn out its first un
satisfactory piece of work. THE LEADEK
invites the attention of the public to the
fact that it has a first class job office,
both in mechanical ability and otherwise
and is prepared to turn out work of every
description at reasonable rates and in the
very best styles of the art. We take no
back seat even for Sioux City and Sioux
Falls in point of price and workmanship.

mence housekeeping. Many of the fam
ily delegations in the party carried with
them baskets and packages containing
many good things to eat which were dis
posed of at the parsonage. The party
were hospitably entertained during the
evening by Iiev. and Mrs. Simmons and
their happy family, and went away feel
ing much pleased with their sojourn.
Sioux Falls Press: There are ninety
six persons in the penitentiary, there be
ing only one women in the prison, which
certainly speaks w.ll for woman as a law
abiding person. Owing to the prison
having no crn tract on hand for work, the
prisoners are idle. A ^reat deal of the
summer work has been in the prison
quarry blasting out stone for :lie wall
around the prison. Most of the aiipro-
priation, 12,000. has been used already in
the furnishing of the quarry. A new
mode of tactics has been adopted with re
ference to the exercise of the prisoners.
An hour and a half a day is devoted to
military drill, special effort being made
in the foot movements. This has afford
ed a great relief to the prisoners, and on.
pleasant days they are marched out on
the gravel walk and are given a good
march.

COLLEGE CDLLINGS.
The instruction received at the Au
gustana College this year is as thorough
iind interesting as it can possibly be
marie and one good point of instructions
are the chapel exercises in the morning
when the students in turn deliver a de
clamation, written composition or short
speech.
On account of the recent snow, the
students of the Augustfina College were
obliged to give up their baseball and cro
quet playing for indoor amusements.
Quite a number of students were en
rolled during the past week. Of those
who have attended school here before
were J. B. Reincrtson, R. R. Spande, C.
Sandvig, A. Steensland, and Miss llein
ertsion. The new students were O. Os
mundson, from Lincoln county C. Erick
sun, of Miner county, aud R. W. Olsen,
of Yankton. Many more students are
expected to attend in the near future, so
the prospect for a large attendance is
good.
Timber Depredation*.
United States Land Commissioner
Lewis A. GroflC calls attention to the
continued poachings on the forests of
the public' domain. An examination of
the reports back as far as July 1,1881,
and extending up to the end of June,
1889, shows that the best timber still be
longing to the United States is being
ruthlessly destroyed and stolen, and will
soon be exhausted. There are laws
against this stealing, bnt the laws are
imperfectly enforced, and always have
been because' citizens of the United
States find it difficult to eradicate from
their minds tho idea that appropriating
anything belonging to Uncle Sam is not
stealing.
Our laws are utterly inadequate to
protect tho forests of the public domain,
and they arc melting away like snow
wreaths in spring. Commissioner Grofl
suggests that whenever the public woods
arc situated in a locality in which tim
ber is needed for building by settlers in
their vicinity, that provision be made
for supplying such actual settlers with
the needed lumber. But the constant
cutting of timber on these lands and
shipping it off and selling it elsewhere,
putting the money into private pockets,
should bo stopped at once and forever.
Commissioner Groff says the law
should be made stirrer, so as to prevent
the cutting :tad deportation of public
timber beyond the neighborhood where
it is needed, as stated by him. Also the
cutting of any timber at all should be
forbidden on mountain sides and near
tho head waters of streams, or at any
other point where for economic, climatic
or public reasons the land should be left
permanently wooded.
Antarctic Explorations.
It is announced that the Australian
states have accepted the offer made to
them a year ago by Baron Nordens
kiold, the explorer. The baron promised
to go on an expedition to the south pole,
or as near to it as he could get, if the
Australasian countries would contribute
$25,000 toward paying the expenses of
his trip. The money has been raised,
and Barons Nordenskiold and Dickson
will accordingly organize and equip dur
ing the coming year an expedition to
south polar regions. The object of the
expedition will be both scientific and
commercial. Whales and seals are be
coming scarce in the north polar seas.
So are the eiderdown ducks and other
birds that commerce seeks in the far
north.
The Antarctic waters are yet full of
these valuable birds and animals. Ow
ing to the severity of the weather and
the remoteness from civilization com
merce has not yet levied tribute on the
waters around the Antarctic circle. Sci-
e&ce, too, has lagged in the irao£ng out
of the secrets of this remote region. It
was so far away from anywhere and the
prospect of sucoor in case of misfortune
was so hopeless. For half a century no
explorations have been carried forward
in the south polar seas. Birds bare
whistled, whales have spouted and seals
have gamboled at will, with no human
sound to break the solitude. But anew
civilization has sprang up not so far
from these regions now. Austra
has become the center of a great
and new civilization, whose millions qf
are calling to the Sooth seas, in the
Interests of both science and of com
merce, demanding that they yield up
their secrets.
