Mother Nature will readily disprove
this time honored axiom. The mind
of man since the first faint dawn of
time has sought to wrest from her
some of the things she knows, yet
her lips have remained as closely
sealed as those of the sphinx. In
many things she is as garrulous as
any other Of her sex, but in many
of her moods no amount of fiat
terry or cajolery sufices to get even
the faintest glimpse into her real
thoughts.
eve might go back into the re-
hottest period Of history for exam

Of all men will suffice to illustrate
what l mean.
Perhaps the greatest secret ma

death. Apparently there is no rea-
son why a man who lives well reg

live indefinitely, but the stern fact
is that his time is certainly allot-

year has been added to the sum to-

Leon sought in vain the fountain of

ravages Of decay, proved as unavail-
ing as De Icons search for the
fountain.

The REGISTER has been led to believe
that President Droppers OF the Yer
million University was an atheist and
a free thinker, but we desire to set
ourselves at rights on this matter. In
September, 1903, President Droppers
wrote a letter to the German paper at
Sioux Falls in answer to a charge that
he was attempting to draw students
away from the Lutheran faith. His
letter, after denying the charge, says:

nominational pro~selytism is going on

The announcement is made that
Hon. Coe |. Crawford will be a candi-
date for governor before the republican
state convention in June. He is pop
ular wherever known and is one of the
best speakers upon any political sub
ject who ever took a platform in South
Dakota.-Lake Preston Times.
Why not tell the whole truth by add
ing that his loyalty to the Republican
party is un4nestioned and that the
people of South Dakota admire a man
who will stand up for the rights OF the
people.

In another space, the REGISTER pub
fishes an opinion given by Attorney
General Hall relating to the ''honest
caucus law. This opinion was asked
for by the states attorney Of Roberts
county. Necessarily the opinion is
lengthy, but it should be read by every
voter. If the "hOnest caucus" law is
sustained by the supreme court it de-
prives voters of the right to make a
choice OF candidates and will disfran-
chise many voters from taking part
in the selection Of officials. Only one
view can be taken regarding this ne
farious clause and that is that the
''practical politicians" were determin-
ed to thwart the wishes of the people
if possible. The ingenuity IN framing
that portion of the law is so manifest
that an excuse Of having been Il mis-
take cannot be considered eve plau-
sible.
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1906-02-08

his message, and with the wish of the
''machine," declared that the people
wanted an ''honest caucus" not a
primary law.
When Mr.. Sherwood eulogized Sam
Elrod it was before the governor had
delivered that memorable address in
Deadwood denouncing railway rate
regulation, which speech has been
sown broadcast by the railway corpo-
rations. At the time of his nominal
ton, Mr.. Elrod had not employed the
governing board of the state educa-
tional institutions to assist the machine
in defeating the primary bill, and to
further the plans of the ''boss" to per-
petuate himself in office. Under the
circumstances, does the Argus-Leader
really believe Sam Elrod is the same
man he was when he was introduced
to the state convention?
Is it any wonder such a man as
Carl Sherwood distrusts the motives of
men who have dragged the mai of his
choice into the quagmire Of political
trickery and then into the whirlpool of
corrupt bossism? Governor Elrod
might have made a good record had
he followed the whisperings of a clear
conscience and not the behests OF
corruptlonists.

The largest gathering of the fall and
winter assembled at the opera house
Friday evening and listened intently
to an address of over two hours by
Hon. Coe |. Crawford, of Huron. Mir.
Crawford stated that he is making a
campaign on principle, without refer
ence to it's effect on his own candidacy
and making it along the lines of two
years ago, and that he has entered the
contest to fight for those principles
until they win. The larger part of his
address was devoted to national issues
and the latter part was given to issues
in our state. If the applause was any
criterion, the speaker had his audience
in sympathy with him. Mr.. Crawford
came in on the noon train and spent
the afternoon in looking up and renew
ing acquaintance with old friends, he
not having been here in the past eight
years. A large number of people were

Begpardon; but Lowe has never stated
that he was not willing to forgive these
men, but in the light circumstances
they remind us of the boy who kept
out Of the sugar bowl because mother
had threatened punishment, but when
the door closed the sugar disappeared.
Elrod, Martin and Kittredge have
changed their opinions, we believe, for
no other reason than because they
have been promised a political spank
ing, and they hope to save the punish
ment by promising the people they
will be good. The Times is glad that
the boys are going to be good, but for
the benefit of the balance OF the politi-
cal school, the boys are going to get
their spanking and be put on a side
bench where they can be watched. Ii
they are not, the political school will be
debauched and our citizenship will
suffer thereby. -Watertown Times.
