Will Not Befoul Their Own Nest

The Mitchell land boomers have
imposed upon the state a campaign
that is a disgrace TO fair-mind,d voters
They are seeking to lower the price OF
the million acres of school and in
demnity lands that lie within radius
of a few miles from Pierre that their
own little city of Mitchell might ben
eft. The conservative voters will not
permit the Mitchell land boomers to
attack the cate in this manner. Every
voter Of South Dakota j. called upon
to protect the interest, of the common
wealth, and they cannot do this by
voting for a few real estate men and

clouds gather in the sky, and shortly
terrific gale OF wind sweeps out OF
the north and east, increasing every
minute, and accompanied by terrible
downpour Of rain. Meanwhile the
water. which has been SObbing itself
to sleep, stung into anger by the whip
OF the gale, is aroused to storm Jury.
The waves roll in toward the doomed
city, white-capped and threatening, as
seen by the cleaning rapid flashes OF
lightning.
Then comes gigantic roller, up
. lifting, increasing and towering. 1t
appears as if it is carrying in Its en-
brace all of the waters OF the seas.
This saturnalia of the Gulf pOurs for
ward to meet Death, which waits on
the shore to claim its victims, that the
willing waves will bring to it. The
storm King and Death, these two,
hand in hand, lighted by the heaven :
faring electric flashes, hurry on to
their work of destruction. There Is
great upheaval of the sea to the scream
OF the blast, and then begins the tragic
Lcarnage. The fairest city of the South
Is engulfed in the embrace of death.
Then follows the scene of a pale
moon weeping through clouds, show
ing the terrible devastation. This
marks the pnH nf tha FRO ooIy
With the sympathetic tears OF her
people there also poured into the
stricken city the most substantial aid
that generous hearts could contribute,
and Immediately began the work OF
reconstruction. Like miracle Gal

beloved is this fair daughter OF the
Southland that now ample protection
Tor lie and property in the shape OF a
great seawall has been constructed,
which in the future insures safety to
all, so that the stranger who goes into
the hospitable city will know that both
his life and his business interests will
De completely protected.
The best proof OF this statement Is
the knowledge that Galveston has
roken all records as a port and city
iduring the last year. What hand
some compliment this is from all
nauons in the confidence of the prom
ise OF the citizens of this city.

A New Russian Millet

The South Dakota Experiment Sta
ton has recently issued two bulletins
on the comparative value of millet
seed as a fattening ration for sheep
and swine. Considerable work in CO.
operation with the United States
Department Of Agriculture has been
carried on for the past few years at
this station in the introduction of rare
and valuable seeds and plants from
foreign countries for the northwest
and many varieties are now being
grown under field conditions which on
account of their adaptability to the
conditions in the western Mississippi
valley will add materially to the list
of feeds for the economical production
Of beef, pork and mutton. These
bulletins may bc obtained free by adj

"The Galveston Flood. {"

Among the great exposition build
;ogs that are attracting universal at.
.ontion at the Worlds Fair, St. Loui,
!. the Battle Abbey, containing relic,
oft the Civil War, showing the brother
hattie of the worlds history, awonder.
mi epitome of the struggle of the blue
and the gray, story of brotherly
hatred, Of brOtherly love, and it will
he the means of bringing together
battle-scarred veterans from both sides
whose hearts are as young as their
| hairs are gray.
Next is the New York to North Pole
guilding, realistic trip from the
nations metropolis to the pole, show
ing above all other things, the won
dprful territory owned by the United
States, from the Battery in the En-
uire city of the Empire State, to the
ice clad northern region.
OF special interest to all is the
Galveston Flood structure, which rises
above surrounding buildings in fawn
color beauty and showing inside the
pathetic as well as tragic side OF the
awful calamity, the greatest of modern
times, in which 5000 people out of
city of 4O,OOO lost their lives.
The building in which the theme is
discussed is one of the imposing
temples that line a grand avenue
nearly two miles long, with front of
80 feet and 30 feet deep, called "The
pike"
The mutoramic description of the
food begins with a realistic picture of
the city of Galveston at the sunset of
summer day when the sun is sinking
behind a bank of clouds which are
seen floating lazily over the Gulf. !
Standing on the deck of an incoming
vessel, one can see the pedestrians !
move over the streets, lights suddenly |
flash out OF the windows and doors Of !
the city as the night comes on, the
sound of laughter or Of song floats out
over the water, handsome equipages
dash along the shell beach drive, per-
haps the most beautiful in the world. |
All these sights and sounds, mingled |
with those OF the nearby shipping, |
make a scene as lifelike as it is facin-
ating.
Another change ensues. Heavy !

of speculation about German rights in
South America since the Spanish war.
The tone of comment in the press has
has not always been friendly to the
United States. Who can doubt that
Germany would have attempted to
collect her bill from Venezuela alone,
with a powerful fleet to back up her
|distraint If the American naval pro-
gram had not given us the ships to
interpose veto on high handed meas
ures?
when the last democratic admin
stration packed UP in Washington a
conflict with Spain was not gravely
apprehended. No one dreamed that the
Philippines and Porto Rico would be
flying the American flag in less than
two years. No one talked about Ameri-
can commercial interests in the far east
as justifying representations to any
country to keep faith with China. The
Manchurian railroad was not even
planned - in fact, there was no Man
churian question. To guard our new
territory and to protect American COM
merce in marvellous expansion, as
well as to defend the Monroe doctrine
against all corners, we have been
spending good deal of money on the
navy, and it has been we'll spent - ev.
cry penny of it. Consider what Rus
sia's answer to a request for the open
door would have been if we had gone
on spending only $16,OOO,O00 year on
the navy! And the open door we had
to have, or go out of the exporting bus
mess in the east. The United States of
1904 is a much bigger enterprise than
the United States of March 1897 and
the running expenses mustn't be met in
businesslike way. Economy is a
proper watchword, and may the time
never come when the treasury outgo
is not observed with concern; but cut.
one knows what day may bring forth
would be criminal parsimony. 1t is a
comfort to feel in the present worlds
crisis that we have an effective navy
to protect American interests"
As the Sun suggests economy is all
right, but the American people will
stand for no program of "would-be'
economy if, their safety or the safety
OF their interests is to be in the least
menaced. Such economy would be
nothing less than national suicide. 1t
is gratifying to have the knowledge
that Senator German and those who
believe with him in this matter, if
there be any, are not in control of the
national government; that there are
men at the helm who may be relied
upon to meet all needed demands for
increasing our naval equipment that
it may be at all times adequate and
prepared to protect our interests.

SECRETARY HAYS DIPLOMACY

Secretary Hays diplomatic action to
secure an agreement of the powers
for the preservation of the entity of
China during the Japanese-R Russian
war, has borne fruit 1t was not sur
prising that the voice of unfriendly
criticism should be heard in this coun-
try, nor that there should be slight
hesitation on the part of the powers
concerned in acquiescing to the propo-
sition of the American secretary of
state. However, the sober second
thought has led the powers to see the
wisdom of the American proposal and
now seems likely to result in one of the
greatest pacific conquests of modern
diplomacy. which shall effectively set
tie the opposition of the disgruntled
malcontents of this country.
China has issued a proclamation of
neutrality 1t cannot be questioned that
that government earnestly desires to
preserve a strict neutrality during the
present conflict. While it may be diff
ficult for the Oriental government to
keep under control the fanatical bands
of the northern provinces, it is be.
lieved that such occurrences can be
kept sufficiently within bounds to ac-
complish the purpose of Secretary
