SIOUX PALLS. 8. D- Oci.3. 'Bpecial.V
Whfls searching ths premises of the late
Arney Baker, an aged and wealthy farmer,
who was recently found dead In bed at his
bom on a Turner county farm, an old
kettl nearly full of gold coin and a glass
Jar full of paper money were found.
The gold coin had bee unused so long
that It was quite rusty. In tb kettle and
Jar were near.y fO.4'0 On the very day th
eld man was found dead he had an appoint
ment with aa attorney, hia intention being
to turn hla wealth over to a bank and have
a will executed bequeathing his cash and
property to OUIe Roberta, a neighboring
farmer, who had agreed to car for him.
Th old man waa supposed to hare had
about (10,00 in cash hidden on his premises
and it is suspected that each night search
ing parties ara at work endeavoring to
locals ths wealth which is believed to be
burled in th ground or concealed aome
wher about th old buildings on th place.
Bo far as knows Baker had no relatives
and suck of his money aa is found by the
nOoers of the county will, unless relatives
appear, be turned ever ts the state of South
paJtota.
For this reason It Is thought that private
parties are secretly carrying on th search
under cover of darkness in hopes of ending
som hidden treasure, and If successful they
win keep ths matter quiet and convert the
money to their own us.

that the most Important reason why tb

of ths award was that it was a Judicial
decision. Lord Alverstoos bad in the first
Instance agreed that the center of tb Port'
land canal should form the boundary lines.
The four islands should hav gone to either
on country or ths other, depending on tb
position of the tin through the Portland

I am a thorough believer In currency re
form and agree with those who wish to sea
the greenbacks retired, the sliver with
drawn down to the point which it is practi
cally subsidiary coinage or currency, leav
ing nothing in circulation but gold, as coin
or certificates, and a real bank note circu
lation by gold reserves with such regula
tions for Issue snd redemption that It would
be s matter of indifference to the banks
whether their credits remained with them
as deposits or were circulating as notes.
This is the only true solution of our cur
rency matters, and I hope to see it soma
day accompUahed. This, however. Is a
I tiling which can only be gradually done,
! and baa little or no practical bearing oa
the present butnrs situation. Ws have

great advantages. Our people ar used to

other. Only the veterana ln business re

advantage la. however. Its absolute safety
and soundness. Realise what this has
meant In the last year or two and est-
cialy in the lat few months. If there bad

regard to any of our currency, our standard

would have swept the whole country, leav

a very good system which resists such
strains, snd th re is great force la th
argument tnat thia is not the tim for any
very radical change If ws should now at
tempt sny st all. What Is needed now is
buitineas sense and good Judgment, not leg

as as have needed it for years, but it Is not
