Must be About Right.
Minneapolis Tribune.

South Dakota's new liquor law is
considered too strict by the liquor
dealers aud not strict enough by the
prohiGitionists. This is a pretty
safe Indication that the law is about
right and should receive the hearty
support of the great body of con-
sentative citizens who want TO see
the saloon evil restricted to the
narrowest limit, and yet who realize
that its absolute extinction is not
practicable.

Another Experiment.

Ia the course of her experience
With the liquor question South Da-
kota has run the gamut of every fad,
from the w%ide-open doggery to the
purblind piggery, and has not yet
settled the question to the satisfac-
ton of the public. The latest ex-
pertinent is that of license, but the
lie ~islature which authorized it did so
reluctantly, and aimed to throw so
that there is every prospect OF
trouble ONE and expensive litigation
in carrying out the mandates of the
statute. The law forbids the vendor
to have chairs in the room where the
liquor is sold, and already the saloon
men are preparing large orders for
hammocks for the use of their
customers. 1t is also decreed thai
there shall be no screens over the
front windows of the saloon, aud the
complacent saloonkeepers accept the
situation gracefully and are prepar-
Ing TO worry along without any from,
windows.
If the South Dakota Legislature
had been as wise as it was energetic
it might have avoided all trouble,
saved much time and secured the
best license law that was ever enac-
ted by simply copying the Mime
sofa statute. We la We tried this law
for ten years, and it has proven an
absolute ard unqualified success,
The evils of the traffic have been
reduced under it to the minimum,
the state is receiving a princely
revenue through its operation, and it
is as easy of enforcement as any
other law on the statute books.
there have been frequent attempts
on the part of the prohibitionists to
tamper With the law and secure addi-
tons to or subtraction from it, but
the good sense of each su ceeding
Legislature has prevailed, and the law
stands today practically as it was en-
acted ten years ago, when high
license was made the issue end YVES
accepted as the true solution of the
question of sumptuary Legislation.
South Dakota, or any other state,
may safely copy the Minnesota law.

The Antitrust Law.
Aberdeen News.

The republican antitrust law
bids fair to sweep every trust out of
existence. The trusts were never
10 audscious ss during the past
four years, but the probabilities
are that the free trade gentlemen
in congress who have been worry
ing so over trusts during the past
few weeks will soon lose the source
of their worrimeIt. Republican
laws are all right when they are
gwen a chance, and are always on
the side of the people.

Animal kindergartens.

IL will be noticed that all creatures
which have large families, whether
beasts or birds, have less trouble in rear
ing them than those which have only
u or two young. Little pigs are weeks
ahead Of calves in intelligence, and the
young partridge, with its dozen brothers
and sisters. is far more teachable than
the young eagle. There seems no doubt
that the latter is taught to fly by its
parents. A correspondent informs the
writer that he has watched the old
birds SO engaged and the young eagles

Young offers, and probably also young

ions OF Mr.. Hart, the late head keeper
at the zoo, the young offers born there
did not enter the water for weeks, and
even then their mother had to .'min6 >

thought they had had enough of it.

Riding in q friends carriage one day.

stSnt efforts to restrain one of the

The Bankruptcy Bill.

The extra session, besides pass
ing the appropriation bill, which
failed of completion at the hands OF
the expiring congsess, and besides
taking up the tariff question, open
ed the flood gates at once to new
bills and general legislation. Ii
any great matter, next to the tarlt.
bill, deserves prompt attention, 1t
is the subject of d national bank
ruptcy law. A number of bank
ruptcy bills are pending, and it's
not easy for the laymen to under
stand all their provisions. The
Torrey bill, which has teen under
discussion for so long, would seem
to have as its underlying motive the
benefit of the creditor as against
the deb;o-; and It's frmest support
comes from New England and the
Atlantic seat GARD. Senator knute
Nelson, of Minnesota, has pre-
scented a bankruptcy bill! which is
ayowedly intended not 20 provide
further or additional machinery for
the collection of debts, hut rather
to hep thousands of active and
energetic business men, particularly
n toe west and south, to obtain a
discharge from the debts they are
unable to pay, in order that they
may take a fresh start. Senator
Nelson has as high a sense of honor
and integrity as any maj In the
country; and there is no suspicion
in his bill of an attempt to aid
rascals to sv i'd the payment Of just
debts. But, as Mr.. Nelson points
out, the very men to whose
vIgor and enterprise the west has
owed its prosperity in the past are
the ones most deeply involved in
the frightful business reaction
which no ordinary prudence could
have guarded, and for the recruits Of
which these men cannot be held
bIameworthy. As matters stand,
they can neither pay their debts on
the one hand, nor can they on the
other hand proceed to do business
with their undischsrged obligations
hanging over their heads. Mr.
Nelson declares that in the end the
creditors OF these men would gain
most ~ their immediate liquidation
and relief from old obligations. In
some form a bankruptcy law should
De enacted. 1t would be an impor
tant factor in the restoration of
good times.-From "rhe Progress

A Plea for our Game.

The preservation of game is the
subject of deep to every
sportsman who shoots over dogs or
who trusts solely to the gun for his
sport.
The rapid and alarming dessruc-
ton OF our game in the last few
years renders it imperatively neces-
sary for those who believe in the
protection of game to take an active
step in the forming of good game
laws and establishing game protec-
tive associations in the different
states Of the union.
The game supply of this country
has steadily diminished. If it con-
tinues to do so at the same rate wear
after year it will not be long before
game birds will be as scarce as the
wild pidgeon of today, and game
animals as scarce as the bison, that
once roamed over u western prair-
les in vast numbers. 1t takes no
prophetic eye to look into the future
and see that the greed of the human
race will eventually wipe FROM the
face of the earth all u game birds
and game animals.
We do not think, when we 90 out
70 enjoy a days sport in the field, in
these days of lessened numbers, that
we are robbing our boys of all their
game as rapidly as we can, tina. we
are leaving for them, not the heri-
tage of health and strength that
comes of skill at outdoor sports, but
the narrow chest and white face Of
the counting-room.
We do not mean that u bows
shall ride and shoot; we want them
to add and measure. No. ve wan.
them to grow up thin and white: and
this will be the result to some. and
many hunterless days to Others. IL
nature own creatures are not prs.
served and protected.
Ii something is not done. !, , fu
years from now all that will remain
OF u game birds will be the mount.
ed specimens in the museums nv
private collections of the country
Probably our grandchildren will
never be able to say that they have
seen such a bird as a wild duck Or
sniPe, outside of a collection 90
mounted specimens; and it is no, inn.
probable that the curators OF the
different museums will have to lsbal
the specimens.-Fred e. Mathews in
