Important to Public Health.
To the Citizens of Brookings-

To the Citizens of Brookings-
The physicians Of Brookings desire
to urge upon you the importance OF
giving serious attention to the sewage
question which confronts you, and
which will be voted on at the coming
election.
At present there exists constant
menace to the public health in the
form Of contamination OF the soil and
water supply by the drainage from out
buildings and cess pools. We are
rendering ourselves liable at any time
to an outbreak Of typhoid, from which
we cannot escape only by providing
adequate drainage. This means that
WE MUST HAVE SEWERS.
We therefore most seriously urge
every citizen to fulfill his duty on
election day by making an especial
effort to go to the polls and VOTE FOR
SEWERS.

Scratching the Surface.

All that has so far been done
against trust plundering is
merely scratching the surface.
Not trust has been forced to
reduce it's enormous profits
and indeed the cost of living
has greatly increased since the
so-called trust busting began.
Does not this show that the
Republican politicians, al
though making faces at the
trusts in public, are secretly
allowing them to continue
thair predatory warfare on the
people. If the Republican
party really wished to prevent
the trusts selling their pro-
ducts cheaper abroad than here
the leaders in Congress would
have allowed some sort of tar
if revision bill to pass. But
all the bills for that purpose
have been voted down in COM
mittee by party vote, even
the bill to reduce the tariff to
100 per cent ON those articles
that are taxed over that enor-
nous percentage. The fact is
the trust busting campaign is
intending to just scare the
trusts and combines enough
so they will "come down with
the dust" The campaign fund
in that way is replenished and
the corporations and the Re-
publican leaders are combined
for a new lease of life. That
pleasant pastime is rather ex-
pensive for the people for all
they buy has advanced on an
average AZ per cent since the
present tariff law was enacted.

The Mail-Hauling Graft.
TIE distance from Washing
ton, D. c., to New Orleans. by
rail, ls 1,136 miles; the time of
mail trains is 40 hours. The
scale for carrying the mail on
trains, arranged by collusion
thirty years ago, and which
they are still drawing, gave
them last year $947,910.92, for
THE haul, says the Appeal to
Reason. This did not satisfy
the greed of the railroad barons,
90 they had their servile con-
gress give them a bonus of
$l42.175 more. making a total
of $l,O90,OS5 92-or the enor-
nous sum of $2,9s6.5o per day!
This is not all; they drew an
additional sum ,of $222,9 2,97O.5O
for the use of the mail cars, a
cum sufficient to build the care
twice every year! This makes
the sum daily of $3,597.11 for
handling the mail on this one
line! To illustrate what this
robbery means, I take the re-
port of the earnings of the
Queen and Crescent route
from Cincinnati to New Or
leans, distance of 1856 miles,
and the total receipts from all
sources for 1904 were as follow:
Total earnings $6,8O1 1893
Operating expenses 5,17l,322
@\SS CoI uAu&0 01sOOO,Ol1
Here is road a little longer,
and it drew the regulation
price for hauling mails, and
with all that aud all it's passen-
ger and freight receipts, it
took in only Eve times as much
as was paid to this Washing
ton-New Orleans road for mail
alone! In other words, the
government pays enough in it's
mail contracts with the roads
to run every passenger train in
the nation. The people could
build q road from Washington
to New Orleans and carry
nothing but mail, and could do
it for far less than the roads
now get for the same service
in connection with all their
other traffic. I cannot conceive
how a congressman can vote
to rob the people who elect
him, unless he is bribed, else
is a fool who doesn't know any
better. It is absurd that the
public should pay enough for
hauling the mails to build and
equip a railroad and pay the
interest on the whole sum.
The railroads get easily twenty
times as much as they should
get for hauling the mails.
But because the many who
do vote do not know these
things, and the men they vote
for know they know them not,
and know that they will not
believe men out of their part
les who might tell them, they
feel safe in serving the rail-
roads for the passes they carry
or the cash they receive on the
side for it is absurd to believe
that men would serve the
roads in that way unless they
get paid for it or own some
interest in them-and by their
votes help to rob the people to
put in their own companies.

disadvantages, and fancy in
our delusive imaginations that
we can have the former with
out the latter. The tall man
can see further than the short
man, but he is much more
likely to be hit in the day Of
battle. The swift man arrives
at his journeys end sooner
than the slow man, but the
slow man may be the more
accurate and conquer in the
end. It 10 impossible to expect
to enjoy the advantages of any
one situation without being
able to endure its disadvant-
ages most people are happy
but do not know it. A story
10 told of an Irishman who
while wandering around one
day captured a turtle. He
carried it to the house aud cut
off its head. A person stand,
ing near by seeing it move
afterwards called his attention
to it and said: "You have not
killed the turtle" He said:
The is dead, but heis
not aware of it" So there
are agreat many people happy
who are not aware of it.
Another vain desire is to
have q time when this ever
lasting routine end dis.
cipline can be disposed with.
Does a man wish to spend all
his days in rudiments2 He
must do it. Let the athlete
suspend his exercise for five
years he may be beaten by a
school boy. Let the minister
cease to care for his sermons,
the lecturer to fancy that the
old 10 better than the new, let
the lawyer, who has been out
of practice, come to the con-
clusion that,,a wink from him to
the jury will do more than the
eloquence of the young man
from college, let any of these
persons come to that concfus-
ionand in a short time their re-
putations for ability, which
they have been years in build
ing up will valish away. Won
Bulow said that if he ceased
from practice for one day, he
knew it, if for two days his
friends knew it, and if for three
days the public knew it. How
many echoes there are in the
world. Reminding one OF the
man who in a speech said.
II sood by the grave of my
anceators and cried out, father
mother, where are you? And
an echo answered, we have
PASSED away Only an echo
unworthy the attention of cult
waited minds.
Another desire is for personal
appreciation and responsive
ness from onr friends. It is
folly 10 expect them to see us
alike all times. How much
misery there is in the fancy
that friends should be quick to
respond and sympathize with
everything we say or do. There
is also q desire to reproduce
the past, which adheres to the
very last, to bring up the hap
pinssswe once enjoyed 90 much.
It can not be done, it never was
done. You cannot put yourself
back anywhere.

IMPOSSIBLE DESIRES.
Rev. 8. Olin Eldridge deliver
ed an address to the teachers
training school last Thursday
morning taking for his subject
Impossible Desires" Rev.
Eldridge said in part:
Aspiration and ambition are
closely connected with ad-
vancement, and by advance
ment we do not mean that sense
of it which only refers to per-
sonal preferment !as the high
est aim in life, on the contrary
we mean growth and develop
ment, making the most OF our
self, in the highest and best
sense of the term. The desires
of the human soul are as
boundless 40 the universe,
because the imagination knows
no restrictions. With ever in
creasing restlessness it makes
from one object to another,
now it 10 upon the earth, in an
instant among the stars and
again pursuing it's object l ike
90 many phantons, it knows
not the bounds of time, it has
more power than allth tabled
myths of antiquity. Impossi-
BILE desires if yielded to lead
one on the wrong track of en-
deavor, and cause loss of golden
opportunities. To know what
we can do and pursue it with
ali our powers 10 the law of
success. To know why We
miss the work is one of the
best ways to learn how to hit
it.
One of the first impossible
desires 10 to be free from re-
sponsibiity. In every circum-
stance and period of life we
will be compelled to bear re.
sponsibility. The child must
respond to the present, the
pupil to the teacher, the sub
ject to the governor or rules.
It is this desire to be free from
restraint that accounts for the
daredevil spirit of youth.
Almost every boy and a great
many girls have that spirit.
And there 10 little hope for a
boy or gill that is destitute Of
it. Such generally die young
and laid away to rest
early in their career. Many a
young person has tried to get
rid Of responsibility only to
find that they are up against
the granite walls of the un-
iverse, and as Professor Swing
says" When man resists the
universe, it is always the heart
that breaks"
Another impossible ambition
10 the desire to be free from
the Limitation of little things,
man hates to be under the re-
straint of little things. He
wishes to live high and noble
life, Independent of these
email restrictions which are
the bounds Of common minds.
Little things follow the philo-
sopher. His head may be
among the stars, his feet are
often in the mud, man is an
assembly Of little things. Life
10 made up Of little things.
"Since triaes make the sum
Of human things and half our
MISERY from our foibles springs.
There is . practical ! moral
here. Let him intelligently
learn from hence, q small un-
kindness 10 q great offence"
OfScourse asperson can be a
