AS Il question of economy what is the
matter with abolishing the useless sim
icure offices of public examiner, CON-
missioner of labor statistics. railroad
commissioner? Experience has shown
that the public examiner has failed in
the object for which he was appointed,
and we have failed to see that the state
has reaped any benefit from his SER
vices Or that of the commissioner of
labor statistics or even the railroad
commissioners. An effort was made at
the last term to cut the salaries of
these offices to such IL figure that no
one would want them, and it would
have passed but for the opposition of
the governor who claimed it robbed
him of his prerogatives and prestige.
At this stage of the game it has come
to a show down, and the governor
ought to look out for himself some
other way. Let these Gripping and en-
pensive sinecures be abolished.

Since the state treasury has been
looted. the citizens of Hot Springs and
Fall River county are not so much
concerned about whether the legis-
lators are going to get their pay, as
they are about the possible closing up
of the soldiers home. The STAR thinks
the lawmakers could not serve their
country better than to hasten it's
legislation,-pass what bills are press
ing in the way of appropriations, ETC.,
and then take their leave for their
homes, leaving resubmission and other
questions that involve long debates
until some other time when money is
more flush. They could thus save
their bankrupt state nearly $1,000 a
day, which in a state like this is a big
item. A citizen suggests that a propo-
sition be made to Congressman Lucas
that he introduce a bill in congress-,
asking aid from the general govern
ment to help sustain the soldiers
home through this present time of
distress. 1t would be an act of in
humanity to close up the home and
turn the one hundred or more poor old
invalid veterans out upon the charities
of a cold world this inclement weather
where even able bodied men are
struggling to make a living. These
men did not fight for South Dakota in
the great civil war, but for the United
States and it would be an act of charity
and mercy for the general government
to make IL small appropriation suffi-
cient to carry on the home until the
drouth stricken, bankrupt state can
get on its feet again. We should like
to see an effort made in this direction.
While it may be contrary to all prece-
dent and against the policy of the
government to do such a thing, it
would be nothing more than right and
would receive the sanction of every
good thinking citizen.

a True Friend of Hot Springs.

Major Tyson, commandant of the
Pennsylvania state soldiers home, and
his excellent wife expect to leave for
their home this evening. knowing
that he came here on the recommended.
ton of Gen. Averill, national inspector
of soldiers homes, and that he had re
ceived benefit from his stay of more
than two months here, Il STAR +
tentative called on him to get an en-
preston from him in regard to the
town and the waters. The major is Il
genial, whole-souled gentleman and
said:
II don't think your city has ever had
Il visitor who has more cause for graft
tude for what has beendone for him nor
one who leaves with greater thankful
ness for being restored to health than
1. My physician has written me since
1 came that if had delayed my coming
for two weeks l could not have lived; SO
don't you think 1 have great cause for
joy and rejoicing? l have received the
greatest benefit by my stay, and have
nothing but the highest works ofpraise
for Hot Springs and the treatment 1
have received while in your city. 1
hon't think there is a climate north of
Mason 4 DiXon's line that will compare
with what you have here. Bright sun
shiny days, pure invigorating air, en-
chanting scenery and healing waters,
of which l have felt the virtue in health
restored, 1 don't believe there is a spot
anywhere more desirable for a health
resort than Hot Springs. You deserve
to be better known and you should
commence and keep up u systematic
cal of advertising that will bring
the place into public notice as the great
est place on the continent for the re-
lief of the suffering. OF course 1 see
the necessity of organization and
more uniformity of work in the effort
to build up your town and it will come.
Nature has done great things for you.
in these waters and everything that
goes to make up a beautiful and en-
chanting spot and it is a sin not to let
the world know it. 1 shall do every
thing in my power to aid in bringing to
the notice of the national board of SOL
diers' homes the ACCESSIBILITY of loca-
ting u sanitarium for invalids from the
regular army at Hot Springs, with the
provision that invalid volunteer sol
diers in national and state homes may
be admitted under certain regulations
when their case demands it. 1 shall
not miss an opportunity to say a good
word for Hot Springs whenever and
wherever I can and expect to return
with my wife or daughter some time
during the month of August to see
whether your summer climate is as de-
lightful as what I found here in the
winter. My stay has been SO pleasant
that 1 regret having made my arrange
to leave, but as everything is now
packed up and ready we shall have
to go, SO, Good bye"
