Keeping the judiciary Independent

Keeping the judiciary Independent.
1t is considered an essential condi-
ton of the English court system that
the Judges shall be absolutely indie
pendent financially, that their salaries
sh9il be ST large and provision for
their future upon their retirement
shall be so ample that they nced have
nc monetary anxiety. Since the grant
ing of an annuity of SIT 1925 a year
to Sir Francis Jeune there are row
eight e~x-judges in England who are in
receipt OF total pensions amounting to
1921, $50 a year.

Didn't hear of it before! That
is because the old party papers
are not interested in giving YOU
such news. A large number OF
the great dailics are but little
short of scandal-mongcrs instead
of being real newspapers.

The Prohibitionists are the orig
inal "insurgcnls,' who believe
that the liquor monopoly, a, crca-
ted by the license system, is the
worst monopoly of the great
err and more far-rcaching in lis
corrupting and l~aw-dcfving inhu-
cnccs than any railroad or other
corporation. And they evidently

line il it should take them Il cen

RESOLVED, BY the Republican
party of Potter county, S. d.. in
convention assembled. at Gettys-
burg. on this 22nd day of MAY
1906 that we reaffirm the princi-
pies of the Republican party as
the same we're promulgated at the
last state and national conventions
and pledge our earnest support
thereto thruout the coming CAM
paign.
That we heartily endorse and
fully approve of the course pur-
sued by the Andrew Jackson of
the Goth century-Theodore Roose-
welt, of all America and that we
are in favor of his unanimous re-
election as chief executive of the
Great Republic. SO that he may
thereby be enabled to complete
and perfect the gigantic work he
has undertaken for the federal
control of the gigantic corpora
tions, trusts and combinations
which have heretofore been ar
raycd in solid phalanx against the
welfare of the people at large.
And be it further resolved, that
we are absolutely in favor of the
nomination OF the Honorable Coo
l. Crawford for governor of this
state at the forthcoming conven-
ton to be held at Sioux Falls; and
that the delegates this day select.
ed to attend the convention at
Sioux Rails are hereby instructed
TO vote as a unit for the nomina-
tion of Zoe l. Crawford for gov
ernor, and also in his interest on
all questions which may arise in
the forthcoming state convention.

~ot THIS LABOR PROBLEM.
Why Georgia and the t'arot,nas lead
TrSas tu FACTORY Progress.

The complaint eoca up from the
50ftau asills districts OF Georgia. Vir,
giuIa. Alabama and the two Carolinas
thar the mills are not able io keep
steadily in motion because Of a short
age OF labor In 81 me Instances the
experiment of raising wages above
the normal price has been tried, but
this does not seem ia effect per
anent solution. even for the parti-
cuIar concern that tries IT There
are not enough hands available 20
man AL Of the spindleS and no device
can change this condition.
Ia Texas the number OF cotton mills
II not yet large enough TO produce a
rcrious labor problem although 1t is
repoi led that the mill owners have
haa some diMCuity "a securing a full
supply OF labor The conditions In a
state undergoing rapid development
offer so many avenues OF employment
more remuneratiye than mill wages
that II viii probably be many years
In this state before any other than
female labor will be available for this
industry in large volume. II Is note
worthy that the labor supply for the
factories of New England Is drawn
not so much from new American
blood. but from the ranks of foreign
Immigrants. During the year 1904
over $4,000 immigrants from abroad
settled In the single state of Massa-
chusetts. among whom were 1900
Italians, 800 Irish. 5000 Hebrews,
5 500 Poles and 1000 Portuguese.
From these came the most of the fac
tory recruits, which the Americans
took the positions requiring keener
intelligence and greater industry and
paying better wages. The lesson from
this is obvious: Factory conditions
must co-exist with large factory de
velopment. The South Atlantic
states are erecting spindles faster
than Texas. not because they have
more money to buy spindles, but be-
cause they have more people ready
and willing to operate them

THE BLACK BALL.
Clever scheme That Was Spoiled
In the Drawing.

IN the DRAWING.
Two young men in French village
were called on to draw for conscrip-
ton. One only was wanted to complete
the number, and of the two who were
to draw one was the son of rich farm
er and the other the child of poor
widow
The farmer ingratiated himself with
the superintendent of the ballot and
promised him present il he could find
means to prevent his son from going
In the army. In order to accomplish
this the official put into the urn two
black balls instead of one white and
one black ball When the young men
came, he said.
There are two balls, one black and
one white. in the urn He who draws
the black one must serve. Your turn
is first pointing to the widows son.
The latter. suspecting that all was
not fair. approached the urn and drew
one Of the balls. which he Immediately
swallowed without looking at IT,
why said the superintendent
have you done that" How are We 10

or white haue"
"Oh. that's very easy 10 discover.
was the reply Let the other now
draw II have the black he must
necessarily draw the white one"
There was 100 heip for It. and the

urn. drew the remaining bah. which 70
