VVakpala, March 7.—Living among

them is not known definitely. From
what little can be gathered from the
older Indians it is believed her parents
were killed years ago by a band of
hostile Sioux, and probably one of the
band took a fancy to the then baby
and adopted her. She cannot speak a
word of Enylish, knows nothing of
the ways of the whites, has an Indian
name and is carried on the government
rolls as such.
Former Governor Herrier, while
hunting on the reservation some time
ago, ran across "Wasicun Wivan"
and thus described her in an address
to the Aberdeen Y. M. C. A.
The poor old women did not show
the leastdesireto know anything more
about her own people, nor come in
contact with white neople. When cattle
were slaughtered I saw several squaws

Tuesday's primary election
proved disastrous to the ambi
I tions of Col. Roosevelt, as far as
the Rood will of the North state
is concerned. Hitherto deemed
the idol of the state, who could
have anything he choose, from
its votes, the sage of Oyster Bay
went down in defeat before the

Lemmon, Perkins Gounty, South Dakota, Friday, March 22,1912.
North Dakota
Unthrones its IdoL
greater popularity of Sen. La
Follette and—the diplomacy of
Taft's supporters.
A total of 60 per cent is claim
ed for LaFollette. 1167 precincts
out of 1800 gave him 34,159 votes,
while Roosevelt got 22,877. The
Taft vote was almost nothing,
owing to the determination of
Taft supporters to oppose Roose
velt in the most effectual manner.
Along with LaFollette the
fruits of this victory come like
wise to Ex-Congressman Tom
Marshall, who ran with
lette as candidate for national
committeeman and thus once
more becomes a big power in
North Dakota.
The storm and cold of Tuesday
had some influence in keeping
down the vote, but it is now con
ceded that the result would have
been changed but little even if
weather conditions had bee n
more favorable.
Issuance ol Seed Grain
Wednesday the board of coun
ty commissioners began with a
ten days campaign of seed grain
issuance. Grain is being furn
ished from Lemmon, Haynes.
Hettinger and Faith, at the con
venience of the person getting
it. The work is under the di
rection of Chairman Geo. E.
Lemmon, with Messrs. Jos. Za
lusky, Shuttleworth, Borreson
and others at the various points
in immediate charge.
It is fortunate that the distri
bution is being made at so early
a date, thus putting farmers in
position to save every day of the
precious seeding time. The po
tatoes alone is deferred untill
April 10th, mainly for climatic
reasons.
What is so rare as a day in
March, -in the Dakotas, where
old 'Sol' and the kindly zephyrs
of spring are willing—such as
last Monday. The snow clad
hi1! sides as if by magic sudden
ly gave berth to rills and rivulets
which, rushed downward joined
at every hand into foamy tor
rents, and as hour after hour
passed to the music of radiant
sunshine, loand behold, the land
scape began to change little
spots of earth became apparant,

grew, like Longfellow's turnip,
until one joining with another,
the whole prairie seemed trans
formed into a crazv quilt patch
work. In town the gutters were
running full, workman were
busy at all strategic points to
help the flood, which seamed to

Their Golden Wedding.
Thursday the rare occurence
of a golden wedding was cele
brated by Mr. and Mrs. W. B,
Tubbs, who have made this city
their home for the past year.
Mr. and Mrs. Tubbs are making
their home with their son, A. S.
Tubbs, and although the blast of
many winters have left their
marks on them, both are still
hale and hearty, and may look
forward to a recurrence of their'
nuptial anniversary yet many a'
time. Mr. Tubbs is 74 years old,
his wife, 72.
It was on March 21, 1862, when

they lived and rounded out the

made the removal of the couple
to Lemmon advisable. We have

his health.
Their union was blessed with
four children, Mrs. W. F. John

Tubbs, who is a minister at
Grand Forks. Arba B. and Al

at New Athens, O.
From their many friends and
relatives, from the old home and
nearby, numerous letters and
cards of felicitation upon this
their great pleasure have been
received by the honored couple.
Their many Lemmon friends,
who in the short time of their
residence here have learned to
love and respect Mr and Mrs.
Tubbs, join heartily in wishing
them an abundant and happy re
turn of the day.
The Star Theatre.
Announces a big feature for
Monday and Tuesday, March 25
and 26. The pictures of Miller
Brother's 101 Ranch, at Bliss,
Oklahoma. The largest diversi
fied ranch in the world and the
homeof the Miller Brother's Wild
West Show, the largest Wild
West show on the road today.
There is 3000 feet of film to this
Big Feature and it shows the
great southwest as it was years
ago and how it is today, a few of
the many scenes you have heard
and read so much about. Indians
and Cowboys conflict, Indians
hunting buffalo with bow and
arrows, fall roundup, Possum
hunting, riding bucking broncos,
trained mules and many other
interesting features. Two buf
falos were killed with bow and
arrows, by Indians out of the
large herd in order to make this
the best pictures eyer put before
the public.
Saturday of last week was a
busy day at the Commercial Club
rooms, at which place Walter F.
Kelley, the chivalric auditor of
Adams county, held forth, dish
ing out seed grain orders to some
150 of his fellow citizens of the
Adams county east end. The
stalwart forms of so many yeo
men, all from a small part of the
county, gave the streets a decid
edly animated appearance, and
proved to the casual observer
"ad aculos" that there's a good
sized army of workers wintering
on their holdings, and preparing
for another season's effort. Ar
rangements were made to have
some fifty other applicants who
were unable to appear Saturday,
or whose papers were not ready,
sign up before J. F. Paul Gross,
at their earliest convenience.
