Some Things the Press Might Do.

11lF legislation is going to be enacted against the
I'll press of the state this winter as seems likely, the
- only thing for the press to do is to get together and
cut out all free advertising, which it is now doing and
has been doing for the past twenty years. Ihe press OF
the state has done more for South Dakota In the past
twenty years than could be accomplished in one hun
dred years in any other way.
The press have at all times donated their space
freely and without compensation II all OF our public
institutions. The writer has before Kim at this time
two circular letters, one from the South Dakota Breed
ers association and one from South Dakota State llor-
ticultural Society, in which they ask free space. We
nave published hundreds ofliIe nature upon request.
But we suggest that the legislature appropriate a fund
for such adverti ing, or pass a law compelling the press
TO do this work for nothing. -ilazel New Era.
And the newspapers might 90 further and refuse to
support a lot OF narrow guaged, pln-heaaed politicians
for the legislature, whose on y qualification for the po-
sltion is that they received tie party nomination, if
they are ever nominated again, and every newspaper
should keep tab on every man who is fostering and vot-
II g for such ubiquitous laws, ana whenever they show
the1r heads above the political horizon in future, hit
them such a whack that it will lea e them seeing stars
in bed. These peanut politicians will probably find
that this is a fight that two can play at and that they
will get all that s coming to them.

Hon. Robert Emmett Dowdell of Sanborn says that
they are too fast for him at Pierre and he wants to be
known hereafter as a conservative. Our statesman
friend of Artesian reminds us of an old bullwhacker
who was guiding us on a prairie chicken hunt out in the
short grass country of Kansas some years ago. He
said ne started a bit of fire in the grass one night to
cook little bacon. To do it he had to follow the line
OF lire and when his supper was cooked his coffee and
bacon were two miles apart. Robert Emmett has been
shouting reform until red in the face for since-the
Lord only knows when. He and his kind have started
