South Dakota. Once q state, and
not many years ago either, tina. was
away down in the scale OF agricultural
states, crops poor generally and land
prices that were not making any visible
ascent, even home people, to some ex-
tent, losing faith in their own country.
That WAS four or five years ago. But
in what different attitude the grand
young state stands before the world
today. Proud, because she has good
foundation for it; prosperous, because
her lands are more fertile, because her
soil is demonstrating what it can do
rain has come in general abundance and
nurtured the seed sown in the bosom
OF the mother earth: advancing, be-
cause her varied industries are being
given closer attention and because her
people have seemingly determined that
in the future the state shall take no
backward step and have put their
shoulders to the wheel and will keep
them there. This condition OF things
has been gradual in their growth and
has covered period OF three years,
when the people commenced to realize
that there was little use to let things
stand idle. Along with the rest came
the creamery and the greater invest
ment n cattle. 1t all had its effect on
the people that was for good. Lands
commence to rise in value, slightly,
perhaps, but the farmer looked with
more respect and confidence on his
possessions when he realized this feat
ure. Then came this year Of 1899, and
the very near future will unfold tale

According to the decision OF Judge
Moore, OF the Black Hills, South Da-
kota has no liquor law regarding the
saloons. Several saloon men were in
dioated at Sturgis for violating the law
and the court sustained the demurrer
interposed by their attorney. BY this
opinion Judge Moore holds that the
dispensary amendment to the coustition
adopted last fall was self executing,
and thereby repealed the liquor law
thep in force, and the failure OF the
legislature to provide suitable legis-
lation in conformity with amendment
leaves the state without any law re-
garding the sale of liquors, except as
the amendment provides for its sale
under the exclusive control of the state
and handled by its agents.

Summer weather has been sort of q
joke so far this year around this local
ity. There have been but three days
during the so.far.gone heated period
when the thermometer reached high
point Ninety-four degrees has been
the highest and two other days it has
been 80 and 90, the balance of the time
the murcury has ranged below IS de-
grees. There has been great scarcity
OF hot winds and, in fact, not an in
stance has occurred where this dread
ed evil got in its trying work. 1t has
been an exceedingly good season so far
for grain and the drops in general show
the effect of it.

AGAINsTPRoTEcT1oN, NOT TRUST.

Nothing shows the incapable nature
OF the democratic party more clearly
than its new base of attack against the
protection of American industries, says
the st. Louis Globe Democrat. 1t has
proposed, with q noisy flourish, to make
opposition to trusts leading feature OF
the campaign next year. No sooner is
this idea broached than numerous dem
ocrats insist that tho first step toward
destroying the trusts is to smash the
protective tariff. It 10 useless to point
out to these bigots and impracticables
that trusts are quite as plentiful in free
trade countries as elsewhere. The dem
ocratic mind is singularly constituted.
The party is committed to free trade in
spite OF the bitter experience with the
Wilson law and other defective demo
cratic measures, The moment trusts
are accepted as an issue democratic
Ideas fly of at tangent and war
against protection is devised as the best
way to make 6 beginning against busi-
AOoo AOuOPOAloo.
The democratic party again reveals
in this line of conduct that it 10 incom-
petent and scatter-brained. Trusts are
q recent development. Protection is an
old and time-honored principle. The
country suffered when the democrats
successfully assailed 1t, threw them out
OF power, and reversed their tariff
policy. Now they shift the ground and
make trusts an excuse for reopening
the battle against protection. OF
course, the only way to regulate trusts
is to go at them directly, and not turn
the movement into crusade against
something else. But whenever dem
ocrat talks or writes about trusts he
soon forgets his starting point and
expatiates on the evils of protection.
Democratic logic and action alike are
confused and ineffective. When some
thing positive is to be accomplished
the republican party is invariably
called upon to do it. 1t is so with all
public questions, and trusts will be no
exception.

In little yellowed English maga-

the following amusing scrap:

forts and those other succulent arts
by which longevity Is best promoted.
His grace's sustenahce is thus daily

a warm milk bath. perfumed with al

coffee and a buttered muffin, and aft

new laid eggs just parboiled; at II he
is presented with two warm 1ellies
and rusques; at he takes veal cut
let la Maintenon; at 3 jellies and
eggs repeat; at q cup Of chocolate
and rusques; at 80 he takes hearty
dinner from high seasoned dishes, and
makes suitable nbations Of claret and
madeira; at 10, tea, coffee and muf-
fms; at 12 sups off a roast poulet, with
plentiful solution Of lime punch; at
/ In the morning he retires to bed In
high spirits and sleeps till 3. when his
man cook, to the moment, waits upon
him in person with hot and saVory
veal outlet, which, with potlt1on OF
wine and water, prepares him for
further repose, that continues gener-
ally uninterrupted till the morning
summons to his lacteal bath.
"In this routine Of living comforts
are the four and 20 hours invariably
divided; so that if his grace does not
know, with Sir Toby Belch, that our
life is composed Of four elements he
knows at least, with Sir Ague Cheek.

j. M. Pease assumed control of the
Mt. Vernon News last week and if the
first number is any criterion he is go
ing to give Mt. Vernon people an ex-
cellent paper. Mr.. Pease says he will
conduct non-partisan paper and will
discuss politics but not from a party
standpoint. His platform is anti
monopoly and anti-machine politics, de-
claring that he is an Abe Lincoln re-
publican, and favors the postal system
OF primary voting. THE REPUBLICAN
trusts Mr.. Pease will make the News q
winner, as we have sort of a fatherly
interest in that paper, having started i,
a little over six years ago.

The raising OF the proposed volun-
teers for the Philippines will not be
on the same plan that volunteers were
mustered in last year, says the Salt
Lake Tribune. They all went from
states with their own officers, and two
thirds of the officers were chosen for
the companies and regiments, not be-
cause of their fitness for the place, but
because of personal popularity or a
personal pull. These volunteers will
be taken from all over the states.
Their identity as volunteers from q
particular state will be lost, and the
government will put it's own officers
in command. 1t will no doubt pay At
tention to militia officers who are
properly recommended or who have
given proof Of their ability. But the
confusion and the little petty rivaries
and jealousies will be done away with,
and the men enlisting will not have the
fear OF suffering what 80 many suffered
last year, solely through the incom-
petence of their regimen,al and com
pany officers. The colonel of each OF
those regiments will be an educated
officer of the United States, and he
never will permit his command to be
sent on long marches or long voyages
without personally seeing to it that
provision is made for the comfort of
his men. 1t is better arrangement
altogether.
