E. G. Torrey at one time local editor
IN the Aberdeen News, and who later
accepted a position as Northwestern
editor on the Minneapolis Journal, is
reported to be a very sick man. Torrey
was a worker, always had it in mind
that he was compelled to do all the
work in one day. He has over-reached
himself, and is 0 sick with nervous
prostration. Newspaper friends in
South Dakota will extend the hope
that he will be able to pull through
his present attack. Canton News.

The "Silver Anniversary number
of the Dakota Farmer has reached our
exchange table and is one of the finest
newspaper productions eve issued in
this state. The REGISTER recalls the
year 1888 when w. F. T. Bushnell
moved his plant from Huron to Aber-
deem. At that time an attempt was
made to have him locate in Brookings
and he would have gladly done so had
Brookings made him the same offer
Aberdeen did, but u people did not
then see any reason for encouraging
the idea and the Farmer went to its
present location where it has since
grown into one of the best business
propositions in the state, bringing
thousands of dollars to Aberdeen every
year which otherwise would not be
spent there and the beauty of this in
dustry is that not a dollar of the peo-
ple's money of Aberdeen is required to
maintain it. What is Bookings loss
is A%berdeen's gain and, while we have
often regretted that the Dakota Farmer
was not published from this city, yet
we are proud to know that today the
publications. purely South product
stand we'll in the rank of leading farm
magazines. May the paper and its
force of workers, many of whom are
our personal friends, continue to

session Of legislature he prepared a
formal petition and charges upon
which he intended to demand a full
investigation OF the institution and the
reason for his removal.
DR.. Heston with his attorney went
fto Pierre early in the session of the
legislature for the purpose of pressing
the matter. He laid all of his charges
before Governor Elrod and few MEM
bers of the legislature. A short time
thereafter the board Of regents made
the changes in the public institutions
and appointed DR.. Heston as president
Of the Normal school at Madison, and
nothing further was heard of the
charges.
These charges were serious ones. If
true something is radically wrong at
the college. Nothing has been done
so far to remedy any of the matters
complained of. The appointment Of
DR.. Heston as president of the normal
school at Madison is almost as COM
plete a vindication as tho he had been
reinstated at Brookings. If his
charges against the Brookings college
are false then he is an unfit person to
occupy that position. If false, it seems
remarkable that the board of regents
should have done anything to prevent
an investigation. The regents are all
good Organization" men. The or
ganization controlled 80 per cent of
the memers of the last legislature.
There was certainly nothing to fear
from the legislature if the charges
were false. The fact that he was for
seven years president OF the Bookings
college and is now president of the
Madison normal school gives respect
ability and weight to his statements.
The regents by retaining DR.. Droppers
as president of the university have
given him as complete vindication as
it gave DR.. Heston.
The regents have always intimated
that the changes at the several educa-
tional institutions were made at the
''request" of Governor Elrod; however
the governor disclaims all response
bility for the acts OF the regents.
[Since the publication of the above
article the Madison Sentinel has is
sued a statement in which DR.. Heston
declares he had no knowledge of this
article being prepared and that it was
a complete surprise to him, as the
whole matter had been passed up SO far
as he was concerned-EDS. REGISTER.

Governor Folk, of Missouri, advo-
Gates the election of t. S. Senators by
popular vote and says: 'the nearert the
government is brought to the people
the purer and better that government
will be-" There is a growing senti-
ment in this direction but the people
have not yet become fully aroused to
the necessity of changing the election
laws in that respect. We believe every
statesman, worthy of the title, is in
accord with the views of Governor
Folk, but the money and monopoly
forces of course do not wish to see the
people take hold of the reins.

Their usual method was to work thru

in the college. In fact, the, most

case OF "graft and pulls" all the way
thru.
Nothing but a legislative investiga-
