amend the code in the same respect,
but again failed. OF course there was
great deal of legislation absolutely
essential to the new order of things
which occupied the time of the first
legislature under statehood, and per-
haps 1t Is not strange that that body
failed to amend the criminal code in
many respects. 1t will be remembered
that In 1892 1t was discovered that the
South Dakota code contained no law
providing for the punishment of
adultry. Last winter it was again dis.
covered that there was no penalty
prescribed In our code for the crime OF
incest. 1t is pity that our laws
should be SO defective that man
guilty OF the enormous crime which
William Walter Taylor has committed
should escape adequate punishment.
But such Is the case and no good citi-
zen will be so unreasonableas to expect
the infection of any punishnen not pro-
vided and prescribed by the laws of
the commonwealth. The Sioux City
Journal has called attention 10 the fact
that Iowa, in the early years of its
statehood, had experiences similar to
those through which South Dakota
has been and is nov passing. So it
seems that the Illuminating expeiiences
OF this state are not peculiar t. this
commonwealth alone.

Senator Pettigrew thus roasts the
railroads. He evidently means what
he is saying: 1T wouldn't make any
difference to the public II all the rail-
roads In the country were owned by
one man. There couldn't be any more
injustice or worse discrimination in
rates than there 10 now. What one
ought to have, II net government own
ersbip. which Il open to serious objec-
ton because Of the political corruption
which would attend II, Is absolute gov
eminent control Of all railroads, with
power tofix rates, punish dircrimina-
tion, and correct all the fragrant evils
that now attach to the operation OF our
present railroad systems. We have
made some progress, but congress
should 60 great deal further If we
are to have any national relief from ex-
isting burdensome conditions.

whether an organized township in q

An Editors Political Horoscope.
Dell Rapids Tribune: A number OF
prominent citlZens in the state have
been talked OF more or less MS possible
candidates for the republican nOmina.
ton for governor, and N. E. Phillips OF
Sioux Falls has been an avOwed candi-
date for some time, but political lines
have recently been settling down so
that something more definite is known
rs to who are really candidates for the
place at the head Of the republican
state ticket next year. At this writing
every thing goes 10 show that the two
leading candidates are Lieutenant Gov.
9. N. Herried Of Leola, and ex-Secre-
tary OF State A. o. Ringsrud of Elk
Point, and it is pretty safe to predict
that one Of these gentleman may be
nominated. There may be other can
didates, but their claims are not being
recognized to any great extent. Some
OF them may be sincere in their candi-
dacy, but most of them are probably
chiefly desirious OF gaining control Of
the delegation from their county and
be identified with the nominee" Two
strong factions are making quiet
but thorough campaign. one pushing
Herried and the other Ringsrud, and
IN interesting contest may be looked
for between these two candidates in the
next convention. In all probability
they will be pretty evenly matched,
and there may be possibility Of
dark horse winning the goal, but the
prospect now is that either could have
the nomination were the other out of
the way, and that either can beat any
third man that may be brought out.
Herried could have had the nomination
last year had he consented to enter the
race against Sheldon. He is a very
able man and II popular one, and his
supporters say he ought to have the
nomination on the ground that he is
entitled to it and would make the best
governor the state could choose from
among its many able iuen. On the
other hand, Ringsrud Is also an able
and popular man and would make an
excellent governor. He is y represent
alive OF the Scandinavians, With whom
he has great influence, and his friends
claim he should be nominated because
he 10 the strongest and best man that
could be named, and would carry the
state by an unprecedented majority.
In any event. If the gOvernOrship
rests between these two men, both the
republican party and the state are to
be congratulated on their good fortune
In having two such good men picked
out. Both are able, popular, clean re-
publicans. and either would do honor
to the state as governor and give the
people clean and honest administra-
tiOn. And the nomination of either
would be equivalent to an election.

Care OF the Ear in Childhood.

Defective hearing is trouble that
many children labor under, caused
occasionally by disease, but often-
times by lack of proper care OF the
ear passages. It is sometimes the case
that the dullness and inattention OF .
scholar is due to impaired hearing;
and the inability to hear distinctly all
that is said by teachers and pupils
gives the poor child the appearance OF
being needless and inattentive.
The waxy secretion found in the
ears is natures own method OF keep.
ing the ear passages in healthy condi-
ton. There is frequently, however,
an excess of this wax, and occasionally
it happens that in cleaning the child's
ears the excess wax is pushed further
into the ear passages. Repetitions OF
this process cause the wax to become
packed, causing gradual loss OF the
hearing power. Too much stress can.
not be laid upon the fact that pins and
such articles should not be used In
the care of the ears, as serious injury
is liable from the article entering too
far.
Glycerine and warm water in equal
parts is a mixture land the best one)
that will dissolve and remove the wax.
Apply gently with small syringe.
Should there be, at any time, any
thing in the nature of discharges from
either ear, physicians advice should
be sought without delay. In such
cases there is almost certain to be
some disease of the inner ear passage
requiring medical attention.
Prompt attention will probably save
the child serious impairment OF hear
ing, if not utter loss. ~
It should be. noted that teething
may have close relationship to trouble
in the ears, due to the swelling and
Inflammation of the gums. This IN.
flammation is liable to extend through
the eustachian canals to the ears; and
any tenderness, accompanied by red.
ness around the ears, is a sufficient
indication to warrant calling the ply
sician's attention to the matter. Baby
