Story With Moral for men who Talk
Before They Think.
A clerk in a warehouse near the foot
of Griswold street was struck for a quar-
ter the other day by seedy-looking old
chap who told pitiful story.
''How was it last year?" queried the
clerk.
'Same as now.''
'How will it be next year?'
Don't expect any improvement"
Say, if were you I'd end this. You
are no good on earth"
''No, not much"
"You can do some good by going to
the bottom of the river, however. The
coroner can make several dollars out of
the inquest, the undertaken will be
ahead and the grave-digger will get an
extra dollar.
"Isee. That's your candid opinion,
is it?"
'It is"
every we'll" replied the man, as he
turned away, and he went straight to
the edge of the wharf and jumped off.
The clerk was the only one near by, and
ne had to run for the life preserver, yell
for help, assist to draw him out, and
then, in obedience to the voice of the
crowd, take him into the Office to dry
his clothes and buy him big drink OF
whisky.
"Well?" queried the man, as he got
through shivering,

DAKOTA people do not seem to be WELL
pleased by the passage of the omnibus
bill. 1t provides for elections in May OF
delegates to conventions July 4, and con-
stitutional, state and congressional cleo
tons for the five territories in Novem-
Der, with the proviso that the people OF
South Dakota may vote on the adoption
of the Sioux Falls constitution in May,
and that both South Dakota and Mon
tana may be admitted to full statehood
after the election in November by exec
utive proclamation and without addi-
tlonal legislation by congress. The Da-
kotans are united in saying that it will
merely serve to delay the admission of
South Dakota and render useless all that
has been done since the organization OF
the movement for admission five years
ago. They are asking the senate to re-
ject it, a.d are willing to take their
chances with the new congress, hoping
and expecting that an extra session will
be called by the President-elect when he
takes Office.

WESTERN Rural: The tax question
will always be an important one until
there IS some system adopted by which
there shall be more equitable assessment.
The farmers are greatly interested in
this subject. for they pay most of the
taxes, while the people and property
that require hundred times more pro-
lection than the farmer and his property
require, pay comparatively very little in
thousands of cases. We have always be-
lieved that graduated income tax was
the easiest road out of our present tax
muddle. That would enable the tax
payer to get rid of paying on both what
he owned and what he owed, and the
amount of income could be got at with
somewhat more accuracy than the value
and location of great deal of taxable
property can. But if the present sys-
tenn is to be maintained then some steps
should be taken to insure full valuation
of all property, and wherever the laws
permit the assessment of what man
owes, the wrong should be corrected. If
a man owes an eight thousand dollar
mortgage upon ten thousand dollar
farm there is no justice or sense in as
sessing him for more than two thousand
dollars. That is all he owns, and he
may hold that by an exceedingly light
grip.

If the idea, rumored in some quarters,
that Senator Sabin's defeat in his ambi-
ton to succeed himself in the Senate of
the United States buries him from the
political world has taken hold of anv
gentleman with deep seated firmness,
such gentleman had best make an effort
to absolve the notion from his mind.
The senator went into the fight with a
large number of ardent friends and firm
hackers, and comes out of the contest
with double the admirers that he started
In with. In every move he proved him
self a man, in every act friend, and in
every transaction an honorable compet-
itor. Many of the gentlemen who
worked hardest for General Washburn
are loudest in their praise of the sena-
tor, and it is pleasant to know that new
er before in the history of hard fought
battles in this State has there been a re-
suit so fraught with kindly feelings be-
tween opposing factions as the one just
closed. The victors have been generous
with the defeated, and the vanquished
come up smiling and accept the result
with becoming grace. This is as it
should be. Let the "Grand Old Party
proceed in it's march. The boys who
took back seat this time will endeavor
to get into the band wagon next.

THE railway commissioners have is
sued a report regarding their investiga-
tons of the car stove matter and recon-
mend the passage of a bill providing
that no passenger, mail or baggage car
on any railroad in the state shall be
heated by any furnace or heater unless
approved by the railroad and warehouse
commission, but in no event shall a
common stove be allowed in any such
car. The term common stove" is to
include all stoves that heat by direct ra-
dlation. The bill provides penalty of
$500 for violating this law. In conclud-
ing, the commissioners say they have
not found it expedient to take any ac-
ton under the section regarding the
lighting of cars, as they are not of opin-
ion that the public safety required the
substitution of other methods of light
ing as yet, although many passenger
trains are at night cheaply and made
quately lighted. The board will issue
another special report in few days,
which will suggest numerous amend.
ments to both the railroad and graf n
laws.
