South Dakota Sentiment.

The Argus-L Leader refuses to be-
lievc the reports in circulation that
he senators and members of con-
yress from this state have arraycd
n emelves with those who refuse
TO f How the lead OF the president
IN the matter of the revision OF
the tariff. Our senator's and rep.
rescnativcs are certainly able and
honorable men, and are certainly
in touch with the sentiment pre-
sailing among the republicans OF
South Dakota. That being so they
know that there is a strong belief
prevalent among the people tina,
the president is right-that the
Tariff should be modified in err
tain important particulars.
The people of South Dakota are
strong protectionists. They he
lieve in the protection of our
growing industries. They believe
that our home market should be
protected from the products OF
the pauper labor Of Europe. They
believe, however, that when the
time comes that any particular in
iustry ceases to require protec-
ton in order to supply the home
market, il is time to withdraw OF
at least to reduce that protection.
While they believe on the whole
the Dingley law is one of the most
important and benehcent statutes
passed in many yeas, they recog
nize that conditions arc steadily
changing, and they believe tina,
some of the schedules are now OPP
pressive to the people and are no,
needed by the industries.
The people of South Dakota
are unable to understand why a
tariff on steel is necessary which
enables the great steel trust 10
charge twenty per cent more fer
its goods in the American market
than it charges abroad. They are
unable to understand why il is
beneficial to exclude Canadian
lumber when the result is to add
heavily to the price of the lumber
which we have to buy and at the
same time to denude our lands OF
the forests required to prevent
floods.
The people OF South Dakota
are protectionists. They would
vote overwhelmingly against tn,
introduction of free trade. The,
do not favor a general revision OF
the tariff. But they do believe
that the schedules mentioned and
some others have become oppres-
sive, are no longer necessary and
should be modified or abolished
altogether.
There is no question about the
feeling in this state. And the
Argus Leader believes that our
senator's and representatives are
in hearty sympathy with it.
In this we hope that the Argus
Leader is right as to the position
of South Dakota senators and rep
resentatives. While we admit that
it is too soon to form a just con.
clusion, we arc not so optomistic;
at least one of South Dakota's
senators is closely identified with
the Milwaukee railroad system
and if Congressman Martin and
Burke are not a~filiating with the
standpatters reports from Wash
ington belle them No state in
the Union is more outspoken in
its endorsement of President
Rooscvc!.'s reform policies thar
South Dakota, and if these meas
ures arc repudiated by our con
tingent it cannot be otherwise
than that such action would pre-.
lude the digging of their own
political graves. 1t is to be hoped
that every intelligent voter will
keep in close touch with the inn
portant events OF the near future,
