SOUTH DAKOTA TO MAKE GOOD.


The meeting of all the South Dakota
state oficers-elect to formulate def
mite program on the basis of the
progressive policy to which they stand
pledged augurs well for their good
faith and for immediate results.
While they did not attempt to bind in
detail the legislature soon TO meet,
they did reiterate their purpose to
carry out the principles embodied in
the platform pledges of the republi-
can party, and were able from per-
sonal knowledge to give assurance that
the great majority of the legislature
will cooperate in the same spirit
In South Dakota, as in neighboring
states, the public is keenly conscious
that the time has come for verify
making good rather than for merely
making promises. That those who
have been chosen for Official place
now at last share in that consciousness
certainly indicates progress, and the
indication is hopefully corroborated
by their agreement absolutely to alb
iure, in the absence of legal compul-
sion, free passes and every other form
of corporation favor and gratuity.

of the Nebraska Bar association laid
much stress on the relation of the law

desirability of good character on the
part of those called to the bar. No one
will seek to dispute this, nor will any
seek to detract from the eminent fame

great lawyers who have proved them
selves worthy of the high calling, but
almost in the same breath one speaker
referred to a certain railroad under

crime. When 1t is remembered that
this railroad undertaking was defended
before the courts OF the United States,

MRS. PHILANIE FL GUM.

Entered into rest, Friday, February l6.
1906, at her home, No. 2l5 East Frank
lin Street, Mrs. Philanie Holdswortb
Gum, daughter of the late r. II. and
Sarah Scott Holdsworth and widow of
the late Thomas I'll. Gum, of this city.
Mrs. Gum had been in failing health
for some months, and the end of her suf-
ferings, borne with great patience. was
not unexpected She is survived bv her
brother, Mr.. William T. Holdsworth. her
nephews, Messrs. George d. and Robert
II. and her nieces, Miss Marguerite and
Miss Louie Holdsworth, Mrs. Sally L.
Crane, Mrs. Wallace f. Saunders ard
Miss Fannie B. Woodson For years
Mrs. Gum had been a faithful and devot-
ed member of the Grace Street Presbv-
terrain Church, from which her funeral
services were conducted on Saturday af-
ternoon, February 18th, at $50 o'clock,
by her pastor, the Rev. Dr. Witherspoon.
whose ministrations during her illness
were her unfailing comfort and support.
Mrs. Gum was born in Richmond and
spent her life in this community. where
she was most highly esteemed and where
she had many friends, who will read this
announcement with sorrow. She was
buried in her section at Hollywood Gene
terry, where the graves of her husband.
mother and adopted son had already been
made.
She leaves behind her the record of a
life that was conspicuous for its faith
fulness to family ties and to the duties
imposed by her church membership. The
circle of those most intimately connected
with her and those who knew her best
by well established association and ac-
quaintance in the home of her adoption
are those who realize most truly the
value of her unobtrusive worth and sin
cerity of character. Her sickroom was
frightened and her closing days robbed
of much of their WEAKNESS by the kind
ness and tenderness of friends and pas
tor.
When the supreme moment came. faith
triumphed over death and, without n
sigh or struggle, she passed from the
life on earth to the brighter and better
life in the world everlasting. to join the
company of loved ones who had gone be-
fore and were waiting to welcome her
there.

The Gun a Teacher.

A story is going the rounds il
New York OF a discussion be-
tween two well. known business
men who visit the Maine Woods
every shooting season.
One had been telling ofhis out
ing, which he had found doubly
delightful. because for the first
time he had taken bis small boy
along.
"a boy of twelve2 / should be
afraid" said the other, "to give
my boy the responsibility of o
gup.a
sWell,' said the first, 81
should be afraid to deprive my
boy OF his share OF responsibility.
Nothing develops a boy Hike
responsibility"
This mans view is exactly in
line with the propaganda being
carried forward b. the J. Stevens
Arms and Tool Company, Chi
copee Falls, Mass. They argue
very reasonably that by putting
a rife or gun IN the hands OF a
boy you teach him to be careful,
yop increase bis eit-respect, and
make. him self-reliant and manly.
The Stevens company have is
sued a catalog on rifles, shotguns
and pistols, which every father
should see: It not only describes
the many different styles there
are to day, but it is 3 perfect
mine of information OH all points
connected with shooting, wheth-
err for sport field, or target prac-
tice. We have read the copy
sent US with the greatest inter
est, and strongly advise our read
ers to write tor it. The com
pany's only request is that touI
cents in stamps be sent to cover
postage; the catalog itself is free.
