ASSIGNS COUNTY FAIR DATES
Huron, Feb. 17. —Proceedings of the
meeting of comity fair associations
and expositions here Feb. 10, which
culminated in a permanent organiza-
tion called ‘‘The Associated Fairsand
Expositions of South Dakota.
There were present representatives
from the following counties: Brook-
ings, Clark, Spink, Hand, Hyde, Law-
rence, McCook, Hanson, Hutchinson
and Davidson. There was a very good
meeting. We had communications
from other associations, including
Deuel County Fair association, Clay
’ County Fairassociation,Stanley Coun-
ity Fair association, Butte County
association, and the Gas Belt expo-
sition at Pierre and several other of
¦f the associations approving of the plan
and agreeing to abide by the plans
1 formulated.
A permanent organization was ef-
I fecteii with S. Hill of Alexandria,
president and George D. Cole of
jBrookinsg, secretary.
The tirst matter ot importance that
was adjusted was the matter of dates.
| There were no conflicts whatever,
I except Highmore and Miller, and this
' Was adjusted. The dates as as fol-
lows: Clark County Fair the latter
part of August and the fore part of
I September, Spink County Fair the
j following week, then the State Fair,
' then Brookings, then Duel county
Fair. McCook County Fair is the 5,
6,7, and Bot September, Hyde Coun-
ty Fair the 5, 6 and 7th of September
lor the first three days of the week
proceeding the State Fair, allowing
Hand the last three days, the Bth,
9th and 10th. Stanley County Fair
I occurs the same date as Deuel Coun-
j ty Fair, also the Clay County Fair at
| Vermillion. The dates of the Corn
Palace could not be secured, and Han-
i son and Hutchinson as well as Brule
and Aurora willbe fixed at a date to
correspond with and be satisfactory 1
to the Corn Palace people.
i A. E. Chamberlain, superintendent i
of the Farmers’ Institute, and also'
superintendent of the Boys’ and Girls’
Contest, the new departments creat-
ed by the South Dakota State board '
of Agriculture, addressed the meeting I
along the lines of the boys’ and girls’
contest.
It w;.s> decided to make the tempor-
ary organization permanent and to j
meet once a year thereafter to elect ,
officers and transact such business a ,
willbe of importance to the different I
County Fair associations, and at a
date in conjunction with the state I
fair board when they meet to pur-!
chase their advertising and have the
representatives from the different at-
traction companies present, so that
one meeting a year will answer all
purposes.
A committee, consisting of Mr. Hill,
Mr. Hart of Salem and Mr. Mcllvane
of Huron, was appointed on by-laws,
and the idea was to make the mem-
bership fee as small as possible, $5
for each association. This would fur-
nish sufficient funds to handle the
correspondence, postage, etc.

CHAS. W. MERRITT IN PRISON
Charles W. Merritt, a former meat
market man of Lamro, serving a term
of six months in the Minnehaha coun-
ty jail under sentence of United States
court, and who in addition was lined
SSOO, is the first m; n to be convicted
in South Dakota under a federal stat-
ute which prohibits Indians selling is-
sue stock or their increase to white
meu without a written permit from
the United States Indian agent.
This practice of selling stock which
had been issued to them by the gov-
ernment, with the object of encour-
aging the Indians to become self-
supporting had become general in
many sections and the strong arm of
the government was necessary to put
a stop to it and protect the Indians.
Thousands of head of stock have
been issued to the Indians of South
Dakota the past few years. This stock
is branded “I.D.” by the government
before being turned over to the In-
dians, and in cases where the Indians
evade the vigilance ot the government
employes on their reservations and
sell the stock to the white men the
hides are readily identified.
] On Merritt’s premises were found
eight hides bearing the “I. D.” brand
but he was arrested and convicted for
. having in his possession two “I.D.”
hides which were found in his wagon.
The animals are worth $35 each on
an average, and it was found that the
Indians sold them for an average of •
about S2O a head.
Bayles-Randall.
Thos. Randall of Kadoka, S.D., and
Miss Nan Bayles of Manila, lowa,
were married Wednesday at Bp. m.
at the home of the bride, in the pre-,
sence of a company of relatives and ,
I close friends. The bride is a young
lady highly esteemed in her home i
city where she has grown to woman- ¦
hood. She has also visited at the O. ’
|L. Randall home in Randolph and
has made friends here. The groom .
1 is the oldest son of O. L. Randall of i
this city and for several years has j
been a successful farmer in South i
I' lkoti h:r '• ; a d claim near Ka-
doka. •- wet ktv.wn in Randolph
where he ha. live ! with his par :ts
lor man and a hot L of friend.-
willwish himself and his bride a long i
and happy wedded life. They expect I
to visit here before going to their fu-
ture home near Kadoka.—Randolph,
Neb. Times.
The Press is glad to extend con-
gratulations to this happy couple and
extend to them a hearty welcome
when they return. The numerous
friends of the groom on Indian Creek
are planning to give them arojal
welcome.
Comments On New Rates.
The state board of railway commis-
sioners last week issued an order put-
ting in a new coal rate west of the
river. The reduction is not large in |
any one instance, but in the aggregate 1
it will be worth thousands to the users
of coal. This will be an opening wedge
and in the days to come the people of
that section will be relieved from the
unjust discrinination which has so,
long obtained against them. This I
plea for simple justice was begun by
the state federation of commercial
¦ clubs, and it is a matter of much sat-
isfaction to us that this just conten-
I tion has begun to bear fruit. The
governor has given the full measure
of hie influence, and his personal of-
! forts to help in this work. We have
always felt that it would have been
wiser if our law-makers had let the
two-cent passenger fare proposition
alone, and confined their efforts to
securing a reduction of freight rates
in our state. We have differed often
and sometimes widely from our hon-
i orable railway commissioners, but in
justice to these officials we wish to
state that but few people know of the
enormous amount of work entailed
upon the board. There in already
more than they can do, and it is an-
foitunate that they are hampered at
this time by the consideration of the
2-cent bill. This 2-cent fare business
make a flue plark in a political plat-
form, but as a business proposition we
think more of an intelligent persistent
effort on the freight rate question. —
