dare say what they honestly believe.
What was the position OF the Argus
Leader their mouth piece on the rate
bills. How did they treat the petition
OF nine thousand South Dakota voters
to the last legislature? Why did Kit
fridge force John Sutherland, the
member in charge Of the Capital bill,
to erase the provision that it should
be built Of South Dakota Stone? They
hadn't heard from South Dakota then.
Now they are "any old thing" the
people demand, but they have had
their opportunity and "have been
weighed in the balances and found
wanting" We can only Judge their
future, by their past, an so judging,
their kingdom will be finished by the
people whom they have betrayed.
"When the devil was sick, the devil a
saint would be" "When the devil
was we'll, the devil a saint was he."
They are sick now and while sick
and giving such strong assurances of
their reform, the people will do by
them as Pat did by the drowning Jew,
who, as an inducemen: to Pat to save
him, acknowledged that the Romish
Church vas the only true one. When
he had done this, Pat is relating how
he had made a convert said, "Sure,
when he said that, l let him 60 down,
and he died in the faith" There was
no DANCES of that Jew backsliding.
We predict the same fate for the South
Dakota Machine in the present cam
paign. They are now in deep waters
of public disfavor and distrust in the
sincerity of their present assurances.
With both hands up and with abiect
fear depicted on every feature. They
are ready to promise or agree to any
thing; make any sort OF confession Of
faith, and when necessary to claim
and insist that they are really the
founders and originators of the true
faith. The people will see to it that
they don't backslide. While they are
good (if they are) the people will, fig
uratively speaking, down them with
ballots and thus make sure that they
also "die in the faith"

so long as others do. This is a rather
poor way to bring about a reform"
We simply give this as a sample OF
the way the Argus Leader handles
every subject touched upon in this
campaign. The Argus Leader knows
this paper never by a single word
attempted to defend Philo Hall or any
other public official for accepting rail-
road passes, thereby placing them
selves under obligations to the rail-
road. And yet it publishes the para
graph above quoted. Seemingly the
only purpose of the Argus Leader is
to mislead. If the machine has got
any kind of a case, the Argus Leader
as a spokesman Of the boss OF the
machine ought to stay by its case and
not by kicking up a dust and by mis-
representation attempt to hoodwink
its readers.
Why, bless your unreliable little
soul, Mr.. Argus Leader, the business

the men who sit in their farm homes
with mail boxes at their gates are not
ignorant OF conditions, political and
otherwise, in this state and through
out the country. The editorials OF the
Argus Leader when coolly read by
business men and farmers resolve
themselves into ridiculous slush, akin
to the vaporings Of an insane a
There is no attempt to be fair, but day
in and day out it is full Of mud-sling-
ing at the insurgents" and men
seeking to redeem the state from the
most disgraceful political machine
ever in power in any state in the union.
Be fair, Argus Leader; be sensible,
and thereby avoid becoming the
laughing stock of intelligent men. If
the wheels of the machine are slip
ping, pour on more sand. But if it
is determined to dive headlong into
the muck swamp, which is to be
delayed only a few weeks longer, the
Argus Leader should hold itself in
position to look an ''insurgent" in
the face after the machine is dead and
gone.-Madison Leader.

thing about it? No, Bro. Sherwood,
you served notice IN the dealers to
cease selling the adulterated foods or
at least to brand them as such and
you published long lists OF goods
which contained poisonous ingre-
dients and authorizations. Would you
have enjoyed your position il the
people had condemned you for doing
your duty.
Now the machine politicians OF this
state have been serving out to their
fellow Republicans a lot of poisonous
methods and in-as-much as the Repub-
lican party has entire control OF the
states affairs, the party is the represen-
tative OF the people and as such must
be held responsible for the acts of
those in Office.
Now the rank and file of the Repub-
lican party are aware, as you your
self admit you are aware, that there
are poisonous systems and practices
in the party. The machine has
attempted to make the people believe
that Philo Hall wal the only official
who was using a pass.
The pass systematic boss system
the burn the books systematic drag
ging Of the education institutions into
politics-the corruption of our legista-
tures-these are the poisons which the
people demand shall be cast out from
the culinary department of the Repub-
lican party and as an advocate OF pur-
ity the News ought to defend the peo-
pie.

command, provinces paying tribute,
and perhaps q choir Of post-ofice
editors singing his praises although
history is silent IN that point, etc.,
etc. He had everything solid and
snug. He was certainly 1T. But he
had overlooked a very important matter
viz: He had become disloyal. Instead
of being faithful to the power which
had made him the greatest ruler liv-
ing, he assumed that his authority
and honors belonged to him by right
of his great genus and ab~ility-dis-
regarded the wishes of his master and
used the influence which he had'given
him, to strengthen and perpetuate the
reign of himself and his favorites and
was therefore unworthy of the power
and position which he held.
The machine" in, South Dakota
in the dim and distant past was COM
! posed Of active members, each with a
voice in in its counsels, scattered over
the entire state and represented the
Republican voters of South Dakota.
In the COS every vote WEI needed.
In 1900 a sweeping victory was gained,
since when a republican nomination
has been equivalent to an election.
Immediately the Republican "Neb"
and the few who were with, and for
him, on every proposition right or
wrong, took to themselves the credit
for this success, and assumed absolute
control; because the dictators of the
policy Of the party, Of the legislature
of the state officials, and boards, and
also directors OF who should be chosen
as the officials and employees Of the
legislature and as such state officials
and boards. They are now we'll en-
trenched against the people. Have
fawning slaves to do their bidding in
every county. Ample funds raised by
bleeding ~postmasters for a part of
their salaries, as we'll as from other
similar sources. A subsidized and
servile press to endorse and defend
them. They swell up and like the
mistaken boss in Babylon, they now
say with brazen impudence. ut is not
this Republican South Dakota that l
have built by the might of my
power and for the honor of my maj
esty." They too have overlooked an
important matter, to wit: They have
disregarded the wishes and are not
working in the interests OF. the power
that made them-the people-their
outraged and much abused master.
They will get more than seven years
and won't have any political grass to
feed on either. Their cases will then
be nc more like the defendant of Mr..
Neb, who seemed to inherit some OF
the old gents peculiarities-their king
dom will have been finished. They
''have been weighed in the balances
and found wanting" They now make
protestations OF their good intentions,
swear that they are with the President,
for the rate bill, for the primary, and
so on to the end of the list. What
were they before they saw the hand
writing on the wall? The people have
not forgotten. Whatthey say now they
say under compulsion. They don't

WELCOME TO
JAMES BRYCE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-Sir Henry
M. Durand, the retiring British am
bassador, has arranged to sail for
home with his family the last Of next
week. Mr.. Esme Howard, who will be
the British charge d'affaires until the
appointment Of an ambassador. is ex-
pected here within a day or two.
Though. of course, there has been
no official expression Of opinion, it is
pretty well known that this govern
ment would welcome the appointment
Of James Bryce to succeed Sir Henry
M. Durand. 1t is but natural that Mr..
Bryce should be preferred to any of
the others who have been mentioned
as possibilities for the vacant post, for
the reason that none Of them is so
well known on this side of the Atlantic
as the famous author of the American
Commonwealth"
1t is scarcely an exaggeration to say
that James Bryce. more than any 9TH
err person, has exercised his influence
In the direction Of closer union be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain. Perhaps no man living in
foreign ENDS knows the American peo-
ple-their aspirations their history and
their possibilities-so well as does Mr..
Bryce. who possesses peculiar talent
for the philosophy of history.
Mr.. Bryce is IAN Irishman born"
He is a native OF Belfast. and Is in
his 6sth year. His early education
was secured In Glasgow, but he
studied later at Trinity college In his
native land, and graduated with hon
ors at Oxford in 1869. He has from
the first been a notable man. Even
in his college days ne won scholarships
and prizes for which hundreds Of
others strove in vain, and in his ma
ture years, he provided his friends
with no diaappointments. 1t would
hardly be fair to say that Mr.. Bryce is
an ardent disciple Of the Anglo-Amer-
1ican alliance theory. but he has pre-
scented the case OF the United States
so well that the conservative Briton
has steadily advanced in his desire for
reuniting Of those racial bonds which
the American revolution SO rudely
threatened.
