We would advise some OF the young
men to be more careful In the future
about going home from parties. A
certain young man going home Satur-
day night fell asleep and as the horse
did not find the barn door open 1t
went up to q straw pile to get some
thing to eat After awhile the young
man woke up and thinking he was at
some strange place he struck for the
road. After driving around for some
time he finally concluded the horse
wa right and went home and unhit-
ched. Now, Mister, the next time
take . partner along and IL you fall
asleep you will have some one to keep
you warm.

Kittredge Al Obstructionist.


Kittredgc An Obstructionist.
Senator Kittredge in defiance Of the
verdict OF the people at the caucuses,
county conventions, and the state
convention In 1905, continues to re-
gard that verdict as unworthy OF no.
tice, refusing by his course to recog-
nize that the people be considered
when the corporations demand their
pound OF flesh. The people OF South
Dakota read, think, are intelligent,
and they know what they want, and
any man less bullheaded would have
recognized their power In state affairs,
bnt&n arrogance and stupidity he
goes ahead laying his plans regardless
Of reform and progress. regardless Of
the Roosevelt policies that are sweep
ing the country, regardless Of every
thing the people demand.
In the midst Of this whirlwind OF
reforms he stands al a stupid obstruc-
Zionist In the face Of public condem-
nation. ii the face OF an outraged
public that must sweep him from
power II al Intelligent people are to

Congressman Hall and Parker
Doing Business.
The following Bills have been In.
troduced by Mr.. Hall in the House.
Fl. r. No. 1876, entitled "a bill regu-
lating the settlement Of accounts be-
tween the United States and the sew.
eral states relative to the disposition
OF public lands, and for other purpos-
es." The main purpose OF this bill is
to obtain for the public land states
(of which South Dakota is one) the
five per cent authorized by the United
States statutes admitting the several
states into the Union on the pur-
chase price OF lands sold by the gov
ernment where the payment was
made In bounty land warrants or
other scrip. Heretofore the govern
ment, under administrative construc-
tion, has only been paying to the
states the five per cent where the
sales made for cash and has not been
paying 1t where the payments we're
made In bounty land warrants or
other land scrip. The aggregate
amount which under this bill will go
to the twenty-six public land states is
over ss, OO0, 900, and the amount which
South Dakota will be entitled to is
about $500, 900. South Dakota will
receive the third largest amount Of
any Of these states, the only two re-
ceiving larger amounts being Califor-
MIA and Iowa. Mr.. Hall has secured
the cooperation Of his colleagues who
are similarly situated and are natural
ly interested In seeing his bill carry.
Also q bill III. r. No. 1887 for pub
lie building at Bookings, carrying,
IN appropriation of 100000.
Also q bill III. r. 1917 for a public
building at Huron, carrying q like APP
preparation.
Also . bill (H. r. eO93) placing all
lumber on the free list and repeating
those sections OF the United States
statutes imposing q tariff on lumber.
This measure Will have many advo-
Gates In the present session Of Con
gress IS Its Importance IS generally
appreciated not only because " will
reduce the price Of lumber, but also
because 1t will tend to preserve our
forests, which are being 81 rapidly
out down and destroyed. Canadian
timber, which we need so badly for
these reasons, will when the bar OF
the tariff Is removed, seek our
kets. 1t Is Important that actipn be
taken at this session OF Congress- be-
cause. according to estimates made by
the Bureau OF Forestry and the De
partment OF Agriculture 1t is only q
matter Of twenty or thirty years at
the present rate OF contamination
when u commercial supply OF tim-
Der Will be exhausted.
The following bills have been In
troduced by Col. Parker In the House.

THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY.

The Standard Oil Company has is
sued another circular to its EN-
ployees and stockholders. copies of
which have been sent out to the
press all over the country. The re-
cent circular is similar to the one
sent out some two months ago fol-
lowing close upon the huge fine i'm
posed by Judge Lands. The cir
cular just issued is believed to an
ticipate the decision of the suit now
pending for the dissolution of the
Standard Oil company OF New Jer-
sey.
The circular assures the public of
It's absolute innocence OF wrong do
ing in any OF the prosecutions late
Iy Instituted against it in the federal
courts, particularly so in the sensa-
tional fine of $29.24O,OO0.
The circular declares that Il
Shouid be known as widely as pos
sible that this was no case OF re-
bate or discrimination, but simply
the legality of freight rate. 1t saws
that If the judgment is allowed 10
stand the company will he forced TO
pay fifty times the value of the oil
carried over the Chicago & Alton
during two years at an open cent
rate-a rate used over three com
peting railroads for from ten to four
teen years. 1t says that the trial
Judge refused to allow proof that
the cent rate had been filed nv the
Chlcago and Eastern Illinois. and
was, therefore, a legal rate"
1t Is refreshing to know that the
greatest of trusts is now willing IN
take the public into its confidence
Until the $29,24O.OOO fine the Stan
uard was impervious to public sen
timent' and insolently ignoned the
demands Of the public.

mas also been impervious to public
sentiment. but when he felt his
FORMER grasp upon the railroads ~
the United States slipping from nm
Ger his control he cries enough. and
says he is sick Of it. and that the
papers should give both sides. The
papers are always willing to give
Doth sides, but the Standard. Harri-
man and other of the same ilk have
long ignored the public-the dav of
reckoning has come-and now thew
ma their only salvation i'm being
frank and appealing to the public
for square deal.
