The Meaning OF ''iIN.'

The Arlington sun heaves hot iron
into the hides of those fellows who
stand for robbing the people and
burning the books. The Sun says:
According to some of our cenSori-
Gus friend, the prefix ''eX' is about
as damnable a thing as can ever get
hitched onto Il man. The inSurgent
party in South Dakota is held up az
a sort OF thing to be looked upon from
a distance. but approached with eau
tiOn, because there are SO many ''ex's"'
in the company. What is an ''eX"
anyway. Well, according to our reck-
oning, it is a man who has held the
public confidence and esteem to the
extent of serving in some public capa-
city, and who has not had the Su-
preme SeltiShneSs and nerve and gall
and graSping for office to hang on
with finger, tooth and nail to the pie
counter all the rest. of his life. They
are sometimes men who are a good
deal larger and broader and more to
be trusted than those who have not
graduated from the political college
with this degree. We know there is
a big bunch of men in South Dakota
who are fighting and praying and
working to keep the dreadful curse OF
that ''ex' from being placed before
their present proud and glorious
titles, the only ''eX,' that they want
their names connected with being the
expense account of the state but
they needn't feel so badly about it,
far better men than they have borne
the title, and except in South Dakota
it is considered a badge of honor. We
rise to salute the gentlemen, who
have borne their share of public
honors. and who have stepped down
to private life, to help with their eX-
p%erience those who are now trying to
carry on the work of good govern
mpDt.

B. Fl. Tripp had a sample of tested
seed corn in this office Monday and
asked the question: (which starts
first. the. root or the sprout of the
kernel" and his sample proved that
the root starts before the sprout.
The five kernels he had had roots
from three to three and a half inches
in length, and sprouts from a half to
three quarters of an inch in length
in a three days test. Mr.. Trip is a
firm believer in the proper care of
seed corn. He has little use for crib
corn for seed.
We enjoyed a visit Monday morn
ing from DR.. Alexander .Barger, the
young gentleman who had the mis-
fortune to loose an eye from the pre-
mature explosion of a shell which he
was loading his automatic rifle with.
After getting his eye dressed here
he went to Sioux Falls for farther
treatment but the eye was totally
destroyed. An artificial eye was in
serted and as we looked him full in
the face Monday it bothered us for a
moment to tell which was genuine
ard which was not. There are no
marks to indicate other injuries and
a stranger would never recognize any
thing wrong. We congratulate DIR.
Barger on his escape from more seri-
Gus consequences and wish him great
success.

Political Straws.

Isaac Helmey returned from Sioux
Falls Saturday where he was called
as a United States grand juror, but
Judge Garland excused him. Mr..
HeImey vas there long enough to
catch onto the drift of political senti-
ment, and he says he heard but little
talk against the machine. Every
thing seemed TO be for Gamble and
Crawford. There were probably five
hundred men there from different
parts of the state and the prevailing
sentiment Of such a body must mean
a great deal in a political way. The
very air seems to be charged with
anti-machine electricity.

If the people want congressman IN
Washington who won't stand in with
the coal barons and railroads, they
must send men to the republican
state convention who will nominate
men not owned by the corporations.
The farmers alone have the power
to suppress these corporation agents.
and we believe the farmers are gong
to do something for themselves TINS
year.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1906-04-13

If you want the corporation-organi-
zation-machine to run the state 1of
you and rob you by unjust taxation,
Just vote the machine ticket. Cuth-
bert stands for the machine and its
infamous system of tax robbery. The
South Dakota machine is part of and
in sympathy with the coal barons,
machine. All machine elements come
under railroad domination.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1906-04-13

If the people want a primary law
they must elect men to the leglsla-
ture who will pass such a law and
compel the railroads to stop their Tree
pass system. If Martin has any dele
gates from the Black Hills, they Will
come to the state convention on spec
ial cars free of expense. If Mayor
Emrick of Rapid City has any dele
gates from the Hills, his men must
nav their fares. Here is where the
railroads get in their smooth work.

If Governor Elrod is again nominal

Crawford is nominated for governor
we know where he will be found in
such a contest.

The machine papers tell us no poor
man could get office under the pri-
mary law, and it is really alarming to
note the number of poor men who are
fighting the primary law.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1906-04-13

The farmers and business men need
a SQUARE deal on taxation. They know
that if the machine should control
the governor and legislature next
winter there will be no relief given.
The people all over the state know
this. and it seems about time for the
taxpayers to protect themselves.

If the farmers and business men OF
