enabled to give the following fig
ures showing the enormous in.
crease in Tabor freight traffic dur

tober and November 1904 over the
corresponding months Of 1908
The freight records of the com
pany reveal the fact that during
the month of September, 1908
freight forwarded from this poin,
amounted to:
Sept. 1908, 6o6. 900, lbs. Sept
1924, I55s.625 lbs, showing in.
crease of S62,32s pounds.
Oct. 1908, S4s,oiI lbs, 1904. l..

$685. 500 pounds.
Nov. 1908. 5So.SS7 lbs, 1904,

Isl $50 pounds, showing a total
increase in freight forwarded dur.

The company's earnings on
freight traffic during the three
months of 1904 exceeded those OF
1903 by s2,16S.64. The above fig
ures evidence the fact that Tabor's
grain and live stock shippers are
increasing their business wonder
fully and that her merchants have
made a marvellous increase in
their stocks. These figures
coupled with the remarkable show
ing of the Tabor State Bank in its
last statement, make it clear to
the observant eye, that Tabor is
enjoying a period of business ac-
tivity, and deserves to rank among
the most thriving and enterpris-
ing towns in South Dakota.

The coming session Of South
Dakota's Legislature has to deal
with problems of the most sup
RENE import. Now that the CAPT.
.ol question is settled. it is Of vital
interest both as a matter of pride
md necessity to pave the way for
the building of the state-housc at
Pierre. Appropriations for edu-
cational and other state buildings
Fave been liberal to a degree un-
orccidcnted in this or any other
state.
The Press announces that an
Appropriation of $4,000 will be
asked, the state school OF mines
being benehcory. We are not in a
position to question the justice oi
this request but in the light ofthe
vast sums drawn from the public
purse for light benefits within the
past few years we believe tht sew
enty-6ve percent of the taxpayers
of South Dakota would prefer 10
have our Legislative body take i'm

s,ruction of a state capitol build
ing commensurate to the wealth
and growing importance OF ouI

cnt South Dakota is long on edu'

poorest excuse OF a capitol build

REPUBLICAN
CONFIDENCE.
Leaders Say the Outlook in the
State is Good Do Not Fear
Equal Taxation,
|SOUTH JERSEY SOLID.

Trenton, Apr. 26:-Leaders in the
Republican party in this State find
much to console them in the proceed
ings of the Democratic convention,
recently held in Trenton.
In speaking of the convention the
other day, a prominent Republican
expressed the view the leaders of hi
party take OF the situation when he
said:
eff the Democrats are going to
depend upon Bob Davis, Billy Thomp-
SOL and Johnston Cornish for success
in the coming campo igD, they r
leaning upon q broken reed land are
going to be sadly disappointed"
Another condition which tends to
cheer up the Republican leaders is
the situation in South Jersey. The
answers received to the questions
concerning the situation in the differ
ent counties sent out by the State
committee show that it is very favor
able to the Republican cause in all
the counties south Of Mercer, and
that the vote for the ticket in that
section will be as strong as usual, if
not stronger.
Republican leaders are inclined to
consider equal taxation a far less
formidable issue than the Democrats
would make it out to be. They be-
lieve that it will not cut any, 'appre-
ciahle figure in the coming campaign.
National issues, they say, will com-
pletely over shadow it, and the activ-
ity of Mayor Pagan, of Jersey City,
will cause them little, if any, trouble.
People, one of these leaders said the
other day, are clamoring for equal
taxation, but are jumping upon the
Supreme Court for it's decision, which
does away with the $500 exemption to
iremen, and when they realize that
equal taxation means the adjustment
of all exemptions they will not be
snch ardent advocates of it.
1t is about definitely settled that
United States Senator John Kean will
be both the temporary and permanent
chairman of the Republican conven-
ton, which will meet in the Taylor
Opera House in Trenton, May 10, to
elect delegates-at-large to the Repub-
lican national convention. What is
not so definitely settled. however, is
whether this convention will elect
the new State committee or whether
that duty will be left to the conven-
tion which will meet some time in
September to nominate o candidate
for Governor. Several influential
leaders recommend that the matter DO
left to the Gubernatorial convention
They bring for a precedent for such
course the action taken in 1892. In
chat year a President and Governor
were balloted for in this State. John
Kean was chairman of the State com.
mittee that year, and instead of elect
ing the new committee at the con-
~vention which chose delegates to the
| national convention, the old commit
tee wa continued and did the work
until the new committee was chosen
by the G~ubernatorial convention.
Certain leaders recommend that that
course be pursued this year.

!: LOOKER.ON in IOWA J.


Rockwell City, Aug. 22.--The writ ar,
who has had some experience in in
terviewing. but had, until recently,
never tackled a minister to talk for
publication, does not offer the following
as verbatim interview. However, it
so well covers certain conditions and
things the writer has often talked over
with many ministerial acquaintance,
and coming as it does fronl one OF the
sensible every day sort of Iowa preach
ers, there can be no objection to its
publication as the sentiments II not the
exact language of the occupant OF
prominent Iowa pulpit. Speaking of
the too generally accepted impression
that the life and work Of minister
is easy and well paid. Rev. X. said:
The proud spirit man iislikes be-
ing looked upon rs a parasite. OF
course, no one calls the minister by
that name except certain malignant
haters of Christianity, who devote
themselves to scurrilous and even vul-
gar abuse 1t is not the angry filings
of these men which troubles the heart
of the pastor, but the oulspoken as
sumption on the part of those whose
approval he covets. Admitting that
some pastors are too sensitive, that
they attach undue Importance to trifi"s
and find sights where none were IN
tended, is 1T not, after all, fact that
many people assume that The minister
has the easiest kind of lime? That

1t is easy to say that "the Lord Will
provide" and to furnish the minister
with pious advice about trusting Goa.
But why is trust to be the peculiar vir-
the Of the minister? This is Chris
tan. not an official quality. The pas
tor. is under no more obligations TO
trust than is the layman. 1T is notlce-
able that some of the people who are
most generous with advice to the min
lister concerning the necessity ana
beauty Of faith in God are among the
most active and persistent in endeavor
to Law UP for themselves treasures on
the earth. God has not given one Ideal
of life. one set of commandments, FOR
those who stand in the pulpits and an
other for those who sit In the peWs.
Loving God with all our heart placing
the kingdom of God first, are TO be
qualities of character common TO all
who claim to be diciples of Christ.
1t is true that the ministry of Jesus
