How Kittredge Tried to Defeat
| ROOsevelt's Prosecution of
| Land Thieves.

When Francis J. Heney was sent to
Oregon as special prosecutor to bring
to trial men who had defrauded the
government out of great tracts of
public lands, he found that District
Attorney Hall, instead of enforcing
the laws Of the United States was pro-
tecting the very grafters themselves.
Meanwhile, Senators Mitchell and
Fulton had promised to name as
Halls successor George g. Brownell,
president Of the Oregon senate, the
Southern Pacifc's man there and, as
chairman of the railroad committee,
head Of the combine Of corrupt poll
ticians.
But Brownell became involved in
the frauds, and his partner, J.. W.
Campbell, as well. Hall, who wanted
a reappointment for himself, hurried
of to Washington. Before he re-
turned to Oregon, Senator Mitchell
wrote letter to Brownell, saying
that because both he and Campbell
were sunder the ban, /" they could do
nothing for either Of them for the
present. Both Fulton and l.. he
wrote, shave for the purpose of pro-
tecting your interest gone very much
farther in certain direction than we
ever supposed we would.
Says Lincoln Steffens, in the Ameri-
can Magazine, commenting on this
letter.
Here, then, was full explanation

Il. i.
The people Of Sioux Falls and the
entire state might have been loyal
supporters of the big senator for a re-
election had he remained true to
them, but he turned his back on the
people in the hour of corporation tri-
umph and sat in his office giving ord
ers like king boss to his henchmen
who were numerous enough In the
legislature in 1904 to defeat the Just
demands of the people for reform Leg
islation and in His arrogance he order
ed his followers to vote down resolu-
tions endorsing President Roosevelt
which they did. This was his position
in 1905. The legislature in 1907 was
composed of different men. They
were for Roosevelt by big majority
and passed the reform legislation de-
manded by the people.
In 1905 the machine bosses were in
control but in 1906 the machine was
smashed and the bosses routed, and
now comes the big boss seeking vote
OF confidence from the men who re-
pudiated and proclaimed him unfit for
the position he held.
The people OF South Dakota are pro-
.gressive, enthusiastic followers OF
Theodore Roosevelt and will never
stultify themselves by supporting a
man whom they know is not a sup
porter of Roosevelt for a renomina-
ton or his policies when reelected.

Day County Farmers Pay Trib-

lest and most prominent citizens of
Hanson township, says that some
weeks ago a man approached him and
asked if he would sell his farm. The
farmer replied that the place was not
for sale. The agent then made him
several offers, each higher than the
other until the farmer finally said he
would take $50 per acre for the land.
The agent said he could sell the land
at this figure and would make the
sale providing the farmer would pay
him SO cents per acre for advertising
purposes payable when the sale was
made. This the farmer agreed to,
and the agent produced a contract
which the farmer signed.
But there was a joker in the deal.
The contract simply reads that the
farmer shall pay the agent so cents
for advertising the land, and does
not mention that the agent must
sell the land before the so cents per is
payable. This little joker was over
looked by the farmer, and he was
greatly surprised as a few weeks later
to get a copy of an advertisement of
his land together with a bill of $50 a
quarter section for publishing same
"as per contract" In the opinion of
attorneys the contract is good and
will be so held by the courts.
AS said before, twenty-five in these
parts were caught in the deal, most
of whom have paid up. One man not
far from Groton paid the schemers
1920, at the time and begged them to
keep quiet and not let people know
that he was d-m fool" A number,
however, propose to fight payment

Sound Banking Deserves Con
fidence.

Henry Clews in Wall Street Jour
nal.
Especially wise was the determine
tion of the clearing house committee
to eliminate the speculative element
from the banking situation. The
first step was to restore confidence In
the banks. AS long as these remained
sound and solvent the crisis was GER
tain to soon pass over. 1t is the spec
ulative element in the banking situ-
alton which has been largely RESPONSE
BILE for the present decentralization.
Some OF our New York; banks and
trust companies had fallen under the
domination Of promoters and specu-
lators, who had neither knowledge
nor experience regarding sound bank
Ing methods, and had no better OBJ
jecb in view than to use these inSti-
tutions for exploiting their own ques-
tionable operations. Absolute elimi-
nation OF Spectators from the direc
torates Of our banks and our trust
companies is prime essential to the
restoration of confidence, and fortu-
nately this fact seems to be recognized
by both the clearing house committee
and the, great bankers upon whom
control OF the situation has fallen.
Banking reforms, however. should
not rest here. Our banks should re
strict their operations more strictly
to the legitimate functions Of bank
ing. They should be free Of all sus
picious alliances; corporate influences
should be closely guarded against
sound principles should be faithfully
adhered to-, and higher standards OF
integrity in management should be
insisted upon by plainly expressed
public opinion. Depositors have it
in their power to stimulate reform by
showing their preference for institu-
tions controlled by men Of unques-
tionable ability and integrity; plac-
ing their funds only where sound
banking and high. standards Of con-
duct are the first considerations.

Why Kittredge's Defeat is
Certain.

If one were to believe the Kittredge
organs he would be led to the con-
clusion that Kittredge is gaining new
friends here and there over the state,
but those who are familiar with the
true sentiment Of the voters know
that Mr.. Kittredge is far from being
as strong as he was two years ago,
when he and Martin and Burke and
Elrod and Kennedy and the entire
corporation gang were running the
political machinery in the state,
backed up and sustained in every
possible way by postmasters, land
officers, Indian agents and by railroads
with free passes and Influence. 2
That was combination deemed
invincible and few of the machine
bosses believed that it could be over
turned because they figured that they
could fool the people little longer
but the people fooled the bosses and
turned them down hard.
The machine organs tell us or want
to convey the impression that Kit
tredge is gaining new friends every
where, and that he viii have club
of 1900 boosters in Sioux Falls. If
Kittredge has any standing at home
he ought to carry Sioux Falls 4 to l
against all competitors when it comes
to local pride and local conditions.
He may do as we'll as this and he may
not, but his home strength will avail
him nothing in the final Judgment of
the people who care nothing for Sioux
Falls or Senator Kittredge when
principle is involved.
The people of South Dakota want
four years more of Roosevelt and they
are not going to send man to the
United States senate whose public re.
cord has proven that he was opposed
to every progressive measure adyocat-
ed by the President. The people of
South Dakota are intelligent and pro-
gressive and know what they want,
and to intimate that they would send
a man with Senator's Kittredge's re-
cord back to Washington as law
maker would be an insult to their
common sense and self respect.
Senator Kittredge is alone respons
ible for the condition that confronts
him. He was sent to Washington as
a representative of the people, or it
was reasonably presumed that such
was his mission, but his mission,
proven by his vote and work, has been
to legislate for and aid the corpora
tions in fastening an industrial chain
around the necks of Ghe producers
and to break that iniquitous condi
tion our gallant president is laborine
as never man labored for the welfare
of the masses.
In the face Of Senator Kittredge' S
record his organs are laboring to con
vince the people that he is fit mar
for the position he has already dis.
lgraced. Senator Kittredge betrayed
the President in refusing to recon
mend for confirmation a man whom
the President wanted to prosecut,
the land and timber thieves of th,
west, and he has betrayed the people

OF Hall. But here also was some
thing far more important, the two
senators from Oregon apologizing To-

and was also thoroughly informed On
the system OF frauds that had beenI
built up in Oregon.
To President Roosevelt, Heney re-
commended the appointment Of Bris-I
tol as district attorney. But when his
name went TO the senate, Senator
Fulton opposed his confirmation not
withstanding Senator Mitchell had ID
the meanwhile been indicted for l1is
part In the conspiracy to defraud the
United States, and had died In dis
grace.
The appointment of Bristol was re-
ferred to a subcommittee Of the COM
mittee on Judiciary. Two members
OF that committee sustained Senator
Fulton and all the grafters in Ore:
gon, who were clamoring to defeat
Bristol's appointment.
The two members OF that commit
tee, who prevented the confirmation
OF Bristol's appointments, were Sena-
tor Foraker, Of Ohio, a known bitter
opponent Of Roosevelt, and Senator
Kittredge OF South Dakota, who now
processes to be friend Of Roosevelt.
President Roosevelt showed what
he thought Of the rejection OF this ap-
pointment through Foraker and Kit
tredge, by shortly thereafter making
recesses appointment Of Bristol as
district attorney.

Trust to Nature

A great many Americans. both men and women. are thin, pale and puny. with poor circulation. because they have ill., treated thelr stomachS by nasty eating or too much eating, by consuming alco- hollc beverages, or by too close contine- ment to home, office or factory, and in consequence the stomach must be treated Tn a natural way before they can rectifv their earlier mistakes The muscles in many such people. in fact in every weary. thln and thin blooded person, do their work with great difficulty. As result fatigue comes early, is extreme and lasts long. The demand for nutritive aid is ahead ot the supply. To insure perfect health every tissue. bone. nerve and muscle should take from the blood cpr- tain materials and return to it certain others IL Is necessary to prepare the stomach Tor the work of taking up from the food what is necessary to make good. rich, red blood. We must go to Nature for the remedy. There were certain roots known to the Indians of this country before the advent of the whites which later came to the knowledge of the settlers and which are now growing rapidly in professional favor for the cure 2f obstinate stomach and liver troubles. These are found to be safe and vet cer- tain In their cleansing and invigoratinp effect upon the stomach, liver and blood These are: Golden Seal root. Oueen's root, Stone root, Bloodroot. Mandrake root. Then there is Black Cherrybark. The medicinal principles residing in these native roots when extracted with glyc- crime as solvent make the most reliable and efficient stomach tonic and liver in- vigorator, when combined in just the right proportions, as in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Where there is bankrupt vitality such as nervous exhaustion, bad nutrition and thin blood, the body acquires vigor and the nerves, blood and all the tissues feel the favorable effect of this sovereign remedy.

HinemOn For Governor.

Hon. John II Hinemon. Presi- den. of Henderson College, Arka- delphia, and former Superintend- ent of Public Instruction, spent several days in the city this week. He was delegate to the Good Roads Convention and left last night for his home While here Professor Hinemon was repeated ly urged by his friends to declare himself in the race for governor of the state at the next Demo- cratic primaries and many eX- pressions of approval were heard. Professor Hinenan refused to state absolutely that he would be a candidate two years hence, but did state that he will be a candidate for governor in case Governor Little does not ask for second term.

Legislators Fight.

Little Rock, Ark. February ,. Just about the same time that Bob FitzsimmonS was displaying his tistic ability at the Capitol theater a pugiliStic encounter of more importance was going on III the chamber of the house of rep resentatives, with Mr. w. K. Oldham of Lonoke and Mir. w. E. Owens of Miller as the pr1ncl- pals. The battle between the two legislators was short and and fierce, but 1t lasted long enough to permit the inter change of q dozen blows before the eombatants could be separat- ed. After the encounter both gentlemen apologized and shook hands, and the hatchet was bur jed.
 The whole affair started over the consideration of the Barker demurrage bill by the railroad committee of the lower house last night. Both NIT. Oldham and Mir. Owens are on the com mittee, but their views differ widely regarding the Barker bill and the committee substitute in- trodueed by MT. Coleman.
 During the meeting of the committee heated argument en- sued between the men, but the climax was not reached until inn mediately before adjournment. Exactly how the fight started no one seems to know definitely, be- yond the fact the lie was passed between the two men, instantly MT. Oldham jumped at the gen. tlernan from Miller, and struck him twice in the face with his fist.
 There were at least fifty pres ent at the time of the encounter, and the first most of them knew of the trouble was the sight of the two legislators engaged in vigorous exchange offistcuffs. All of those present rushed for ward to part the combatants, but they did not succeed until several blows had been landed with con- siderable effect.
 Peace was soon esta bllshed be- tween the beligerents, and the trouble was at an end. Mr. Old ham was present at the session today, but Mir. Owens was not.
