With the promise of railroad build
ing now very bright, South Dakota
will hardly feel like enacting any
radical railroad legislation. 1t will be
we'll enough to bear this in mind
when choosing members OF the legis-
lature. -Huronite.
This is a fair sample OF the consist
ancy manifested by the corporation
machine which has been busted from
the management OF the Republican
party affairs. We have yet to hear of
anyone who advocates radical railroad
legislation, but all corporations within
the borders of the state should con-
tribute their just proportion OF money
raised through taxation. To say that,
because the railroads are building
extentions in South Dakota they
should escape just taxation, would
also apply to the farmer or the mer-
chant who is making vast improve
ments upon their property. II the
railroads are to be favored because
they are improving their property
then the farmers should be relieved
from taxation because they are also
developing the country. Why make
discrimination in either case?

Good Roads for Market Day

A committee composed of some OF

in looking over the roads leading
across the Sioux bottoms, and an
earnest move is on foot to build up
the grades, repair bridges and make
these roads passable, so that our
friends, the farmers, may be able to
attend the Market Day festivities that
will be held here at intervals during
the coming fall. Let US hope that

An Adventurous Correspondent.

Few newspapers in the United States
are able to command the services of
as brilliant corps of correspondents
as the Chicago Record Herald. Its
choice of Walter Wellman to represent
it at Washington is good illustration
OF its wise policy of getting the best
there is to be had. Mr.. Wellman has
won a national reputation as mag
netic and resourceful news writer
And now ne is preparing to clinch his
reputation for originality and daring
by trying to reach the north pole in
an airship.
Whatever may be the results of Mr..
Wellman's daring attempt to reach
the pole this summer in an airship
and send the news OF the voyage at
once to The Record-Herald by wireless
telegraphy, the Wellman-R Record Her
aid expedition is sure to be conducted
by Mr.. Wellman with the same cool
courage and whole-souled enthusiasm
that have made him an ideal news
paper correspondent.
Mr.. Wellman was born in Mentor,
Ohio, in 1858. At IA he began his
newspaper experience, establishing at
that age weekly paper in the little
town OF Sutton, Neb. In 1884 he be-
came the Washington correspondent
OF the Chicago Herald, for which pa
per he visited the West Indies in 1885,
and located the landing place of Col.
umbus, marking the spot with huge
stone monument. In 1892 he made
his first dash for the pole, reaching
the latitude of 81 degrees northeast oil
Spitzbergen. In 1898 he tried the
same fascinating quest again, pene'
trating as far as Franz Josef Land
On both trips he had wonderful sue
cess in discovering new islands anc
securing new scientific data which
have been OF great value to the Ameri.
can Geographical Society. His vol,

While the Tribune does not believe
that it is right for the county seat to
secure all the county offices, it cannot
see how the people OF that city can
stop anyone from announcing his
candidacy. From all that can be
learned there seems to be disposition
on the part OF the leaders at the county
seat to give all parts OF the county
representation and not try to "hog''
the Offices. -Volga Tribune.

axe.
Instead of surrendering, Mrs. Perry.
although trembling with fear, managed
to Chamber out of bed Then dropping
on her knees beside the bed she began
to pray for the desperate mot to yield
to temptation" and invited him to join
her.
The robbers response was terrific
blow upon the aged woman's head with
