'The best part Of the GRAPHIC is
that it is always interesting-always
something timely and new in its col
umns''-is the comment Of one Of the
best and most observing editors in the
state-Levi Wait of Armour. An IN
stance to the point which our friend
Wait brings out happened at the Taft
house in Chamberlain a few evenings
since, when Rev. C. r. O'Flaherty of
Kimball was present and which he has
stree not been at all backward about
telling. 1t was a conversation being
carried on by a group of men, IN which
q wealthy and well-known Iowa poll
tician was one. When the subject Of
newspapers and newspapermen came
up, the Iowa politician made the
remark that he received number Of
Chicago, Minneapolis and Sioux City
newspapers-and he didn't know how
many country weeklies-but for a
downright good newspaper, that was
well edited and snappy from the be-
ginning to end-all the time-he'd
swear by the KENDALL GRAPHIC, and
that he'd match it against and week.

Official Paper Of the City and County

1t isn't the purpose here to discuss
the benefits or the curse Of the saloon
license, but merely to remark that ar
guments like the excerpt below, which
we run onto frequently IN u ex-
changes, are illogical to the extreme
wholly and with malice aforethought
dragged in by the tail:
Again we repeat: II the saloon BUSH
ness is honorable and legitimate, 1t
should not be licensed or taxed any
more than any other business; If 1t is
not legitimate or honorable or beneti-
cial, no amount of licensing or taxing
can make it anything but %dishonor-
able, injurious and Legitimate.
The business of peddling is consider
ed honorable and legitimate-yet in
this state it is taxe1-taxed almost
out of It's boots-by a license. The cir
Gus business and similar amusement
enterprises are not only considered
legitimate aud honorable, but many of
the very best people %patronize them
and it costs a circus all the way from
$50 to 5000 to put up it's tents IN this
country. If legitimate, why tax it?
Why, drat it all, If you want to get
married you have to be licensed. Per-
haps it isn't a legitimate undertaking.
Who knows? 1t costs about Is cents
to make a gallon of whiskeY and at
the first crack out of the box Uncle
Sam jumps onto that gallon of whiskey
with a $1.15 revenue stamp. One can't
even sell cigars without a l%icense--in
some towns you can't even keep a dog.
People put a 81, 900 license Tor tax for
that's all it is, on a saloon and a 50
license on a wedding that-as Sir John
Porter would say-'sthe punishment
should fit the crime" Along in be-
tween come the varying degrees Of the
license system which is put in opera
tion for revenue in some instance but,
mostly-as in the case of intoxicating
llquors-tn confine the business to GER
| tain limits-of which, the saloon is
one. Society demands that there
should be we'll defined restrictions on
marriages and experience has demon
strated that unrestricted selling Of in
toxicats does untold harm. For this
reason a license is demanded in both
cases; and to say that the license of a
saloon is a compromise with crime is
to say it of the marriage license-anc
Of all other licenses as well. The
most radical prohibitionist is slow
to admit that the drinking of in
%toxicating liquors constitutes in itsel:
a crime; and this being admitted tn,
whole matter resolves itself into th,
purely business question Of whethe,
the saloon is a nuisance and should b.
depressed as such or whether it SHOULD
be allowed to exist and be restricted
by a heavy license under certain regu
} latiOnS.

The Doland Times-Record says that
If Grover Cleveland is nominated by
the Democrats, eating crow will be 4
favorite pastime with some Of the
party leaders in the west and South
Dakota will need an extra allowance.
Grover won't come within a thousand
miles of being mentioned-let alone a
nomination-which is very fortunate
from the Times-Record standpoint
in that there isn't any crow left since
200 Republican newspapers of South
Dakota ate all of 1t when the G. o. o.
went to st. Louis in 1896 and knocked
free silver higher than a kite.

We have nothing to get even with the
Epitome for that anybody h%ereabouts

regret to us that Mr.. Davis newspa-

might bestOw praise rather than criti-

Trained from mixing in the trouble at
Platte and it was not until the Epi-
tome made a dirty fling at a most es-
timable woman of that place that any
thing was said. II Mr.. DAYS. has de-
fence for that part Of his work it
would be more becoming if he were to

may succeed in deludlng a few farmers

common with other newspapers--cut
him to the quick for the offence men
toned because they are in league with
the Chas. Mix "ring'' he harps upon
to accomplish his undoing--and there
by rake in a few more sympathetic
subscriptions-but the cold fact is:
nobody outside Of his particular baili-

the affairs OF his opponents.
