only just begun. The National Live Stock
association is camping on it's trail, and
when it comes to a halt in the senate, it's
bed will not be strewn with roses. We
boast that there are no color distinctions
in the United States, and yet the Grout
bill imposes a 10 per cent tax based on
the color line.

A Good Pl.c. for : Home.

The moral and intellectual quality
Of every community is measured by
the schools and churches sustained.
Where schools are Of high quality and
churches well sustained and well at
tended, are the places In which peo-
pie love to settle down with their
families to make permanent home.
These are among the first things
strangers inquire about when looking
for permanent residences, though
they may not be highly educated or
professed Christians. This is true of
both rich and poor, laborer and capi-
talist alike. Brookings can boast Of
as good schools as any municipality In
the state, II not in the northwest, and
the people OF the city support Ave
churches, all Of them we'll attended,
and the gradual increase in attend
ance indicates tat the people are
more and more learning to appreciate
the importance Of that high moral In
struction which not only gives COM
munity good repute, but secures Tor It
the real worth needful to give It sta
bility and that healthful prosperity
which is abiding. The reputation Of
Brookings is good, although she has
her evils, and every citizen should
make renewed efforts to sustain the
institutions which contribute most
largely to that good reputation, and
all should join In the good work OF
eliminating the Objectionable features
and building up the best, not BY over
jealous action, but by united, steady,
dignified, lovable effort that will dis
arm resentment and lead ell to adopt
higher ideals and strive for greater
accomplishments in the direction Of
the highest.
