RATE LEGISLATION.

1t is not so certain that a railroad
rate based on the ton per mile would
be calamitous to Iowa Investigation
might show that Iowa people would
not have to pay more than they do now
II every shipper in the country were
paying under thss same system. on
the face of 1t, a man so miles from
Chicago would get his live STOCK TO the
packing house much cheaper than the
Iowa man, but maybe that would cause
more packing houses ito be built Ia
Iowa.
Yet the proper control OF railway
rates need not necessarily be based on
q charge OF SO much per ton per mile.
1t must be admitted that such pro-
ceeding would result la Discrimination
that might be detrimental to many In
terests. The general welfare OF the
country should be sought and this
ought 30 be possible under right meth
DDS. All the operations of govern
meaL need not necessarily be Identical
In all places. The natural advantage OF
OF any section, as the producing at
place any particular article OF commerce
might be considered. The mail SER
vice Of this country offers evidence that
government control does not necessari-
" mean that al OF the people OF every
section shall have exactly the same
service, nor that every ounce OF mail
shall pay the same price for each mile,
nor that all ounces without regard 10
kind shall pay the same postage.
The Gasette has said before that it
believes the complaint of patrons
railroads Is not so much that rates are
too high, as that corporations and In
terests. having influence with the roads
are granted rebates and other favors
net extended to competitors. The
railroads once out from under the
thrall of these influences would disarm
much Of the criticism now directed
against them. NeU Hampton Ioaoa

tiOn resolution.
Mr. Martin will goto the state con.
ventior the choice of every republican
In the Black Hills, and every county
convention will instruct its Legislative
delega tion to cast their votes for him.
That he is deserving of and has the
support OF every republican in this sec
tion there is not the slightest doubt,
and that he will be elected to the pos,-
tion there can be no question. His re-
cord as congressman Is better than
that OF any other member who has
ever en- tered the national legislature
he is firm friend 10 the administra-
tion and OF the people, and will make .
fight for the position, which, OF right
belongs to the western portion OF the

Apr0pos OF the question OF Chinese
labor on the Isthmus. it 10 worth while
to note the great revival Of the dis
cussion OF the exclusion of the Chinese
from this country. A situation ex-
listed which had come to be so intoler.
able TO the educated Chinese that
they had begun TO find way very
effectively to call our attention
to the barbarlty TO which we haye
been subjecting them. The ex-
clusion OF Chinese laborers is one
thing, and the visiting of indignities
upon merchants, scholars, students,
officials, and well-to-do person
ages who seek TO come here for one
purpose or another, those purposes
usually being for our own honor and
profit, lis very different thing. Yet
our Immigration and periodicals have,
as rule, so construed the laws as to-
subject Oriental personages, with all
their dignity and old-world culture, to
the sort of treatment that belonged in
the worst period before the war to the
administration OF the fugitive-slavel
laws. We have paused at nothing ex-
cept the branding of these Chinese|
gentlemen with red hot irons. Happi-
ly, President Roosevelt had ordered
this thing stopped with peremptori-
ness and vigor that will have good
deal OF effect. The boycotting OF
American goods In China, however, by
the educated classes has already gone
very far. Many OF our people think OF
China as a land of ignorant coolies
who are SO inferior to ourselves as to.
rise scarcely to the plane of human be-
lngs. The fact is that China contains
a greater number OF feducated and culti.
waited people than any other country In
the world. Their culture is not ike
ours, but 1t Is based upon long study OF
literature, ethics, and hailosophy, and
it has been transmitted through many
generations. The Chinese have not
well learned how to act together;
otherwise we should never haye dared
to treat them recklessly and unfairly.

republican viii agree every time with
the president or every thing, but il
does mean that the republicans Of
South Dakota and The organizatit n
which officially represents them are
back OF the president, believe in his
policies and are upholding his hand.
The present outburss OF affection
for President Roosevelt on the part OF
those who only sne short year ago did
not like him well enough to vote for
him recalls the 1896 outburst OF elm
coin republicans. The same men who
are now trying to ride into power on
Roosevelt's popularity we're in 1896
claiming 70 be the only simonpure Lin
coin republicans in the land Abraham
Lincoln they claimed would have been
for free silver. Abraham Lincoln
they claimed in 1900 would have been
in favor OF leaving the Philippines in
the lufch. The rank and file OF the re-
publieans Of the state took no stock in
these cheap campaign cries In 1896 and
in 1900 They are not likely to have
decreased IN Discrimination since, and
1t will be a long time before the re
publicans of South Dakota will commit
the managementof party affairs to a
crowd Of men who have fought the
party for the last nine years, and who
only now seek to change front be 8
cause they know their case is other
wise a hopeless one,
Republicanism has been growing
some in South Dakota since 1896. In
that year Bryan carried the state In
1900 McKinley's majority was nearly
$1,000. In 1902 Governor Herreid was
elected by plurality Of 26,S0O. In
1904 Roosevelt carried the state by
over so 00s State administration has
been as clean as hounds tooth. Other
states have had scandals, but South
Dakota has been clean. An effort was
made last year to get Lincoln Steffens
to come to South Dakota and write up
the shortcomings of the organization.
He looked the field over, and did not
come; and those who tried to get him
here dropped the whole matter like d
hot potato Barred by an increasing
majority on one side, and
by clean state administration on the
other, the anti-republicans have set up
a new cry, and seek to hornswoggle
stalwart republicans into their support
on the ludicrous ground that they
alone represent the president. So
absurd thing is certain TO get itself
laughed to death before 1t gets very
far. Siour Falls Argus Leader.
