A Wise Choice.

Brookings Register: That the in
surgents made wise choice in their
selection of nominee for commits
Sioner of school and public lands
is sustained by the kind following
words from Clear Lake (Deuel Co..
Courier which supported the machine
faction of the Republican party dur
ing the recent campaign:
80. G. Dokken has been honored
many times by the voters of this
ever betrayed the confidence of the
people. He is a man of level head,
cool and vigorous, a worker and ac-
complishes things. His peculiar life
work has been special training for
him for the office to which he has
now been nominated. He has made
a success of everything he has under
taken, and while the office Of COM
missioner of school and public lands
is an exalted one, and one too that
calls for qualifications of the highest
order. we confidently believe that O.
G.. DoI<ken possesses these require
mentS to marked degree, and we
urge every republican in this county
to make a special effort to push his
candidacy to the utmost during the
present camgaign. No man could
have been named at the Sioux Falls
convention who is better qualified for
the position, nor one whose character
and record will more generally com
mand the respect and confidence of
the people

The railroad rebaters and the pack
ers, the oil companies and the food
manufactures, the land grabbers and
the timber magnets, collectively and
severaily are working overtime to con-
vine congress that any legislative reg
ulation spells ruin to the special inter
ests. 1t makes the work of congressso
much easier to be coached. In the
meantime the small interests and the
people at large take their medicine,
accept whatever is done and keep
quiet. The query sometimes arises:
Would the country and the big inter
ests really be worse of If those who
are doing al the protesting kept quiet.

iii the campaign leading TO tho state
convention, upon issues which are ex-
pected to be made law next winter.
The stafwart minority are commended
for announcing their allegiance to the
ticket, but in doing SO they must also
support the platform. There can be
no harmony except upon this basis.
Only men of absolute relibility who
honestly represent the ideas expressed
in the platform should be selected for
either house. Let them be groomed

understanding. Centerville Journal.

s1.5O PER ANNUM.

Here is a new swindle that Is being
worked among the farmers and those
wanting to dispose of real estate. A
farmer receives a letter asking him
to list his farm for sale. According to
the blanks furnished, the farmer asks
the firm to try and sell his place by
advertising it four months and agrees
to pay fifty cents an acre when they
have fulfilled their stated agreement.
On close examination it is found that
the firm agrees to do nothing but ad-
vertise it and nothing is said as to how,
to what extent or where it will be
advertised. Whenever the adyertiS-
ing is done the commission is due,
whether purchaser has been found
or not. Farmers who have signed
this kind of contract have been ad-
vised by their attorneys to settle
the best they can and err no more.

"What's the use?" Secretary Shaw
is reported as replying when asked if
he would be candidate for the re-
publican national convention. 'oThe
president has made it impossible for
any other candidate than himself to
be elected president.
Probably this saying is apocryphal.
Perhaps if Shaw did say it he was
only standing off leading question.
Possibly he meant it.

Business, like charity should be
