The Doukhobors are nothing
more than Russion Quakers, with
the exception of certain beliefs for
eign to their original tenets which
have crept in. Their religion is an
old one, and their first trouble with
those in authority occurred in 1899,
when $4,000 of their sect were ban
ished by Paul l., car Of Russia, to
Siberia.
After this they were made the
victims of persecution so long that
the sympathy of the Quakers of
England and America were aroused
and they decided with the permits
sion of the car, to transport their
unfortunate brethren to Canada.
A fund of $925,000 was subscribed
for this purpose.

THE LIMIT.

South Dakotans are usually pretty
complacent and as "a rule take life
with a smile but there are some things
that are to much for us to bear up
under. One of them has just come
to light.
There's an easterner and he wants
a divorce. There's not so much that's
interesting so far, but here's where
the funny part comes in. That east
order has heard all about us some
where, and he writes to confirm in
formation he has received that if one
senda ones washing to be done with
in the limits Of South Dakota one is
constructively a resident; and he
wants to know if he can't send us his
dirty clothes for a few months and
then slide up to the Judge with the
receipted laundry bills.
As has been once before minated,
there is a limit to all things. We
hereby protest.

RAILROADS GAIN,

Reports of railroads of the country
over for the month of March have been
placed in the custody of the interstate
commission and they show that the
gross earnings for March 1907, were
II per cent greater than the gross
earnings for March, 1906. The com
parison is important, says the Sioux
Falls Press, for most of the legisia-
ton complained of was in force
during the month of March and the
figures do not prove the contention OF
railroad managers that the Legislation
would prove disastrous to the railroad
business. A month would hardly dem,
onstrate the truth or falsity of the
claim of the railroad men, but is a
straw pointing out the direction of the
wind. Receipts for transportation
service have increased, rather than
diminished. What the expenses may
have been is not given, but if there has
been any increase in the cost of con
Quoting the transportation business il
was not caused by legislation.

Having secured the opinions Of eleven

in favor of the denomination Of Presi-
dent ROOSEVELT, the Des Moines Capital
INDUCES in this prophecy:
Unless he makes another statement relteratlng
year In spite OF himself"
The Capital, of course, does not under
stand what this conditional statement
implies, which is nothing less than that
If Mr.. ROOSEVELT wants another NOM
ination he a have it by holding his
tongue. He would not be renominated
sin spite Of himself" but by his own
assent, if the Capital were right about
its diagnosis,
If Mr.. ROOSEVELT has reason to be-
lieve that only r~eiteration of his former
pledge would prevent his choice by the
convention, another plain and forcible
statement of mistaken purpose not TO
be a candidate again may be expected
of him.
His injudicious friends seem to forget
that he would regard it as a stain upon
his honor to be persuaded to stand in the
light Of those Republicans whom he has
Endorsed as worthy to serve the people

TARIFF REVISION.
Hew II Ls Viewed by the Newspaper Once
Owned and Edited by Mr.. Dinghy,
From The LutHon Journal.

From the Lstniston journal.
The revision OF the tam pr badly will be effected
AS was the revision OF the Mckinley tariff, twelve
years ago, al an extra session OF Congress imme-
dlately following the Presidential election. All
along that has been the plan OF those who are
known as stand pAtters," and Il 10 likely that this
plan will be adhered 10. Speaker Cannon cites
the fact that the Republicans carried the last Con
gress by a large majority on this understanding,
and he does not believe that tarih revision Just
before q Presidential election would be 50 effective
as a revision effected after politics had cooled on.
Had the Senate treated reciprocity with hos
pitaity the demand for early tarf revision would
have less force. Had not pigeonhole politics ar
rested fair play TO the Fllplnos there would have
been less reason for the present agitation, Those
who arc intense stAndpatters have proved the
wors, enemies OF protection. All the treaties neGo-
tlaied by Mr.. KaSson eight years ago were pigeon
holed In the Senate COMMITTEES room, Including the
reciprocity arrangement which the French Govern
ment was prepared 10 accept and the agreement
with Argentina.
The reciprocity section OF the present. tAru was
Invoked by President Mckinley May %, ieee. 10

reciprocity treaty was proclaimed with Germany
and the recent proclamation Of President Roose-

gard 10 Germany and adds q few nominal conces-
sions regarding The administration Of our tarin
laws, CLEARLY within Executive discretion.

that not long before his death President Mckinley
was considering a line OF policy by which practical
reciprocity could be secured without the necessity
OF getting the approval OF two. thirds Of the Senate.
4 maximum and minimum tArih Is now favored
by many. The denunciatton Of the new reciprocity
treaty with Germany by unreasonable standpstNrs
In Congress Is the worst feature Of the situation,
especially In view OF the fact that the new treaty
is substantially that OF seven Year, ago.
The economic changes Of the kst twelve years
make several Of the present tanh schedules un
reasonable. For example, II would be a happy
outcome II such schedules as those Of lumber and
steel could be changed without eneenderine a
| tariff debate. but II is hardly probable that revision
OF any schedules can be effected without bringing
| on a general tAnn agitation. This 10 unfortunate.
| since II propagstes conditions which ought 10 be
corrected. The fact that few of the schedules
are outg rown tends TO prejudice the schedules which
have not been outgrown. Those who want the
earth generally oyerdo things.
