TRIPP UNDS
Register up to Date Numbers
60,000 Notaries Break
Rules
Dallas, Oct. 9.—It is estimated 90,000
had Hlod applications at all points for
the Tripp county lands bv tonight.
This was Dallas' biggest day, 5,553
registeriug here, 703 at Gregory, 4N0
at Preeho and 1H8 at Valentine.
.1. H. Douglas, of Iowa City, Io.,
today dejK)sited bin railroad ticket in
the lottery tank, where it will remain
till the drawing.
Tomorrow several thousands are ex
pected from Chicago, and six extra
detectives were sworn by the railroad.
Hixty police now guard Dallas.
Today the police complained of hav
ing the worst buncb of crooks yet to
watch. Pickpockets are active.
Chamberlain, Oct. 9.—The arrivals
for registrations at this point for tbe
Tripp county opening easily amount
to 5,000 bringing the total registra
tions here to about 12,000 for the first
three and ODe-half days.
Tne United Htatea land office officials
last night took trp several certificates
of authority of notaries public to take
registrations, on the ground of exces
sive charges and failure to observe tbe
general rules laid down. Officials are
watcning tbe proceedings very closely
and declare that tbe rules must be lit
erally observed or certificates will
in all casea be taken up. Reports of
trains on the way for thiB afternoon
and evening show that arrivals will be
somewhat less today than yesterday.
Large numlwrs of people from Ohio and
further east are among the arrivals and
interest in the gieat drawing appears to
lie universal over the country.
Gregory, Oct. 9.—The registration
at Gregory today ap to 6 p. m. was
703. George Nagle, one of tne notar
ies here, had bis commietuon taken
fiom him today by Assistant Superin
tendent D. M. Carr fer irregular work.
BOYS AND 60NS
Combination Which
Many Lives Every
Year
Costs
Sioux Faffs Press: It is worthy of
note and reflection that the two bays
who lost their lives so tragically in
the explosion of powder and dynamite
houses near Sioux Falls last week, car
ried a guu. It is true that it will never
1» known what caused the explosion.
Some think the boys had crawled under
one of the houses and struck a match
that ignited powder that had sifted
through the floor. The most commonly
held explanation, however, is that tbe
gun was discharged in some such way
as to reach the explosives. It is fair
lv supposable that if the boys had not
carried a title, they would oe alive to
day.
So nth Dakota has no law against the
sale of fire arms to boys. Other states
have. But in South Dakota any hard
ware merchant may hand a revolver or
a shot-gun over the counter to a boy of
twelve. Of course tbe value of a law
agaisnt this practice is problematical.
It is not strictly enforced in any state.
At oest it does no more than to put tbe
responsibility on the parents. For if a
father or mother wishes to bny a
gun and present it to a boy, there is'no
law to prevent the piactice. Bat it
would be well to have a law against
selling to the children. It is worth
while taking precautions even to save
an occasional life.
he boy who meets death fiom a fire
arm is the victim of his immaturity.
Older persons are shot as a result of
carelessness, it is true. But it also
is a fact that caution grows with the
passing years. Any man experienced
in the bandilug of guns knows more of
the possibilities of injury from theiu
than a child to whom the weapon is
a toy. His curiosity itself is fraught
with danger. Guns are not made to
play with. They should be taken ser
iously, even if they are carried for no
more necessary purpose than the shoot
ing Of rabbits or ducks.
BIG BUTTE
Cupid Discouraged County
Large for Transaction
of Business
too
Pierre, Oct. 9.—The advocates of
division of Butte county are setting
forth their particular leasons why the
•:ounty shouli be divided, and among
tnem is one that tne 8ize of the county
discourages matrimony. That when a
marriage license is required by any of
the residents of tbe northern part of
the county they are compelled to co to
Belle Fouiche, over 100 miles away, at
an expense of time and money which
would equal flOO. and very few go.
Another of their strong arguments is
the heavy expense of court officials and
witnesses in the way of mileage, when
some of them must travel fully 150
miles to reach the county seat. That
this additional expense would alone pay
the running expenses of a new and
smaller county. Yet another proposi
tion is that the school conditions are
such that even if a county superinten
dent caret! to look after local school
matters it would Lie impossible to get
over the ground within the time which
the weather and length of the school
year would permit. That while there
has been a heavy settlement in t.h«
northern part of the county the past
year, some of the scoool districts are
yet larger than eastern counties. Cave
Hill district, coveiing 972 square miles,
and Seirn district, 792 square miles.
That with such conditions it is impos
sible to ariange for the education of
the children of the settler.
