The Farm Journal is choke full of
gumption and it has the largest circu-
lation of any farm paper in the world.
1t is good everywhere. We offer it for
a short time as prize to advance-pay-
ing new subscribers to the STAR a year
ahead and the Farm Journal five years,
all for the price of our paper alone.
The Sioux Falls journal has the fol-
lowing to say of q prominent pioneer
of South Dakota, who is we'll known
and much respected: "Judge G. s.
Palmer will leave this city with his
family, about the 18th of May and will
settle in New York City where he has
formed q law partnership with one of
the prominent lawyers of that city.
The judge will be greatly missed in
this state, especially about next cleo
ton time when good speech makers
will be needed by the fusionists."

THE PEOPLE SHALL DECIDE.

Since the insulting letter of Gov.
Lee to President Mckinley, for which
South Dakotans largely feel like apollo
giving, has been given to the public.
the following comments of the Chica-
go Times-Herald made IA few weeks
ago, upon a speech made by Postmas-
ter General Smith at the Hamilton
Club banquet in Chicago are quite APP
propriate:
"The Postmaster General challenges
the world to point to a single step
taken thus far which was not the in-
evitable sequence, the irresistible CON
clusion of the first decision" sWhere
could we have halted i'll the Philip
pines?" asked the postmaster general.
and the answer was given by the thous-
and %banqueters and their thousand
spectators at the Auditorium in tie
shape of a tumultuous applause.
1t is too late to discuss the question
as to the wisdom of taking the Philip
pines. We have taken them. Our flag
has been carried from island to island
by our victorious troops. We cannot
recede without national dishonor. Our
flag is there to stay, and we have the
assurance of Postmaster General
Smith, that the president will hold the
islands in trust for the American peo-
pie to decide, through congress, what
shall be done with them. To hold them
in trust for the people the president
will employ, if necessary, the entire
army and navy.
These are the vigorous declarations
Of a policy that stands for the highest
Americanism. They have in them the
ring of defiance to trilers and weak
lings. Having rescued the Philippines
from Spanish despotism and cruelty,
we have a responsibility to civilization
and humanity that will not be shirked
in Difference to the timorous who are
afraid to carry our flag beyond the
seas.
This is the true American spirit for
which the administration stands, and

Riches of South Dakota.

South Dakota, for q young state, is
fast taking its place among the older
states as a wealth-producing state.
Probably people living here never stop
to think of the immense amount of
wealth that is earned, principally from
the soil, every year. A few days ago
the Chicago Tribune published an arti-
Gle, the figures of which we're taken
from government reports, that shows
what was accomplished in this state
last year. There is nothing fictitious
about these figures, and in fact are
placed upon a conservative basis SO
that they actually represent the earn
ings in SO much money. The article
reads as follows:
South Dakota is now one of the lead
ing wealth producers of the Union. 1t
actually produces more wealth in pro-
portion to population than any other
state. This is proven by the govern
ment figures and other reliable data.
The principal cause of the states pres
ent pooud position is the immense di-
versity of its sources of income or
wealth production.
South Dakota now ranks third among
the states in the production of gold;
third in the production of wheat; first
in the production of flax; fifth in bar
ley, oats and rye; eighth in wool, and
tenth in live stock. Its rank is also
high in dairy products, and is q liberal
producer of almost all known minerals
and coal. Natural gas is found in

HERE'S LOYALTY.

Brother Osbon, of the Spirit of Dako-
TIA, well namely who lost n son in
the Philippines, and has another one
there, expressed himself last week in
the following loyal manner:
1.-The stalwart manhood of Miner
county cannot be seduced from its
loyalty to the flag by 81 ecious quib-
bling. The suggestion that the cause
ballowed by the lives of our SONS shall
be Abandoned or the flag they carried
into the jaws of hell at Marilao be low
cred before an armed foe thrills every
loyal heart with indignation. If the
thirty-two sons of Miner county must
be discharged before their work is
done a hundred pairs of eager hands
are ready to take up the colors of OH.
state and carry them to victory"
"As the best answer to the copper
head whine that TOUR boys enlisted to
fight only Spaniards and should not be
sent against Filipinos," we reproduce

or volunteer, takes at the time Of en-

Black Teeth in Pigs

Frequently young pigs come into the
world with teeth so long that they
reach out over the tongue, lacerate the
teats of the dam, make her angry, and
raise Cain generally. Frequently these
teeth are black. The thing to do when
YOU find this kind of trouble brewing
in the pig lotis to get pair of pinchers,
get the little fellow under your left
arm, and with the pinchers in your
right, break every one of these teeth
off short, says Wallace's Farmer. 1t
is a short, easy Job, and should not be
neglected. This will restore peace and
prevent the young fellow from getting
a backset at the time of life when any
backset is q serious matter.

BRATTLEBORO.
SUIT FOR $50 600.

Liston s. Ketchum has sued Charles Rich
ardson for $50 900 damages in the Brattle-
boro courts. Mr.. Richardson is the father of
the divorced wife of Mr.. Ketchum, who charg-
es that he unlawfully induced and coerced
his daughter to leave her husband. When
Mrs. Kecthum left her husband two weeks af-
ter their marriage she went to Europe with
her parents and remained abroad several
years. Mr.. Ketchum says in his bill that he
was put to great expense in ndeav oring to 10
cate her. Mr.. Richardson is charged with
"unlawfully, upjustly, maliciously, wantonly
and wickedly" persuading and enticing his
daughter to leave Mr.. Ketchum, to keep
away from him and to hide from him. Mr..
Ketchum claims to have lost the comfort,
assistance, aid and services of his wife, also
that he has been deprived of the care and
custody of his infant daughter, now about
three years old. The declaration states that
Mr.. Ketchum had no knowledge of the birth
of the child, until within the last three
months, when rumors of it reached him. He
at once instituted inquiries and definitely
