THE STATES INTERESTS.

Falls correspondent of eastern
papers, has contributed an article
the gist of which is that South
Dakota has always shown leni-
ent spirit towards the railroads
doing business in the state, and
the laws have never been devised
to embarass these corporations.
Mr.. Burkholder' statements are
to the point. The people of
South Dakota as a class realize
that the several railroad systems
operating in the state, more par
ticularly the Chicago u North
western, and the Chicago, Mil
waul1ee & st. Paul, have done
more to develop the state than
any other, or all other, agencies
combined. These two roads en-
tered the state when it was un-
settled and pushed out far beyond
the sparsely settled communities.
They did not wait for homeseek-
ers to go first, bat built out and
blazed the way This work is yet
uncompleted. There is yet "A
large amount Of territory in the
western part of South Dakota
that is rich in undeveloped re-
sources, to which these roads
have never penetrated, but from
all signs and certainties they are
going to open up these sections
TO the landless people of the east
IN the next year or two.
South Dakota owes much to her
kniting ones best friend to pass
laws or take other measures to
retard their work. in the develop
inent of the state. And besides
this, many prosperous citizens
now residing in the counties east
of the river recollect the days
when drouth and other causes
brought them tothe verge almost
OF famine, and it was the rail-
roads that shipped in. to them
coal, food and clothing free of
cost, and provided them with
seed for the next years planting,
with no money to be paid down.
These and other circumstances of
= like MANURE have bred in the
minds Of the citizens of the state
very tolerant view towards rail
I roads, which disputes in their
opinion he saying that corpora
tions have no souls.
In states like Wisconsin dema-
gegue politicians Of the LaFol-
lette stripe have succeeded in
making the voters believe that
railroad interests were inimical
to their welfare. This fiction has
been helped along by magazine
writer's Of the Lincoln Steffens
class, who earn fat salaries by
composing articles which consist
Of about one part Of truth to nine
parts Of fiction. In So far as
South Dakota is concerned this
GLASS Of literature seems to fall
I on deaf ears, for we have learned
the lesson Of the past, and know
our friends. In point Of this ref
erence can be made 70 The petitions
