OFFICIAL PAPER OF CUSTER co.

One thing seems absolutely
certain about the strike of the
telegraph operators, and that is
that the public is getting the
worst of it. The telegraph is
peculiarly public service cor
poration. and a strike of the
hurry-up lines is much the same
thing to the business world as
though there should be a general
tie-up of the postal service. The
big telegraph companies will not
suffer at all by the strike. 1t
will merely be a question with
them of paying few dollars
less in dividends, and the Off
Gals will not eat a meal less or
smoke a cigar the poorer The
operators and their families may
suffer a little, considerably per
haps, if they lose. But the bust
ness world will suffer great |
deal and the whole trade of the
country will be hurt. Whether
the demands of the striking OPP
orators are just or not, it is hard |
to say. The issue has not been
clearly defined by either side.
Both have INDUCED in the gen
eralities of man who is not |
quite sure of his case. But both |
the operators and the companies
may be sure of one thing, and |
that is that they are driving the
long suffering public nearer to
government ownership by their
family row. OF course there is
no immediate prospect of such a
solution of the difficulty, but
every dispute between labor and
capital in which the public is
hurt drives that public nearer to
experimenting a remedy that
may or may not be worse than
the disease.

Dispatches from Manila an
pounce that on the back of the
local elections where some of the
most notorious instructions
were chosen for the insular legis-
lature, there have been mob pro-
cession before the governors
palace where the American flag
was insulted and where the rebel
flag was given the place of hon
or in the parade. One might
think that this country had had
enough of besto wing the fran
chisc on people who were not
ready to receive it by several
generations of training. But
experience in this case seems to
have been poor teacher. Elk
perienced observers assured Sec
rotary Taft before he ever left
Manila that the Filipinos were
short of voting age by about POO
years. But the government
must needs insist on thrusting
the ballot into the hands Of a
people who had not only never
used it but had never seen it
used. Shrewd political agitators,
not unlike the carpet baggers OF
reconstruction days, were qpies
enough to see the rp~ r Halc'
n'as pa6ilgeviop Iydverse they Nigh
make of the situation, and tn
result is that the government ]
not thanked by enfranchised MAJ
ives and has potential revolt
tion simmering under its nos
again. The civil government {
the islands is up against til
White Mans Burden again an

William II. Taft would speak from
the same platform and suggested that
he improve the opportunity 10 give

among other good things, dropped the
following remarks, thus proving IL 70

The editor OF the Sioux Falls
Forum, Mr.. 81. G. Sessions, was mem
Der OF the local committee of arrange
ments which 50 many OF the Insurgents
are criticising for the conduct of the
Taft breakfast at Sioux Falls, Sunday
morning, a week ago. Mr.. Sessions
gives the inside facts regarding The
whole affair in the following words:
THE illness of Secretary of War Taft
which occurred AT st. Paul Friday,
caused pOstp0nement Ut his arrival 10
Sioux Falls until Sunday at $50 u. m
His non-arrival caused great disap-
p0intment TO hundreds of outside Wis
itors and thousands who had planned
to hear him at the auditorium. The
disappointment was felt by no one
more keenly than bv the secretary
himself. His non appearance Saturday
ana the disarrangement of the plans
has caused no little cOmmotion and
brongh at forth some criticism upon the
local committee By some OF the more
ardent insurgents of Senator Gamble
and Governor Crawford They were
heard to criticise the local committee
because Senator Gamble and Governor
Crawford wore not invited TO breakfast
with the Secretary of War Taft. This
is matter with which the local com
mittee had nothing to do. The Sec
Rotary while in the city was the guest
OF Senator Kittredge, the breakfast
was planned for Saturday morning and
would have occurred before the arrival
of Senator Gamble and Coy. Crawford
who were expected to arrive pOte later
than niue clock Saturday. They we,
invited TO go on an auto ride with the
Secretary, they were taken on the ride
bl the local committee Saturday. They
we're invited to take lunch at the Noon-
day Club with the Secretary; they were
present at the Cub Saturday They
were invited by the local committee TO
seats on the platform with Secretary
Taft. This part of the program was
omitted In the absence OF Secretary
Taft They were invited to attend the
Dakotah Club with Secretary Taft.
They did attend the Club Saturday
evening. 1t is a fact that the two dis
tinguished gentlemen were shown
every courtesy that 1T was possible to
show them by the local committee.
Nearly all of the committee are
personal friends OF the gentlemen and
nearly half OF the committee, If not
hall, political sympathizers with these
gentlemen. 1t was the aim OF the COM
mittee to show them every courtesy
while 10 the city and its members
thought they had done so.
THE breakfast was given by Senator
Kittredge, was private and personal
affair add was planned to take place
before the arrival in the city of these
gentlemen. The balance Of the pro-
gram after their arrival included these
gentlemen ia places OF honor at al!
functions. The train being late Sun
day morning and the breakfast all ar-
ranged for, 1t was proceeded with accord
ing to the original program, Bishop
Hare and OGorman and members of
the local committee as guests. This
10 the whole story We do not think
Senator Gamble or Governor Crawford
felt slighted. II their ANAL friends
did they will have to make the most of
it. The committee has no apologies to
make.n

Bro, STURGES of the BeresfOrd Re-
public calls attention in mild sort
Of way to the fact that al the Union
county newspapers were completely
ignored this year in the distribution
Of insurance statements. Bro Sturges
should recall that every newspaper in
Union county last year lent aid to the
republican ticket, the county going
Two TO one In favor of Crawford, ana
that tits evidently the policy Of this
administration to place patronage
whore 1t will do some good. When
the county gets close again the news
papers may expect little encourage
mont For our part, We expected no
patronage Of this kind, even If we did
loyalty support the entire ticket after
the convention and some OF it before
the con vention. We cannot understand,
however, how the frequent teeters of
the Elk Point Leader la the republic
can back yard came to be overlooked.
Harry Wentzy, chairman Of the demo-
cratic central committee, Bro. Nesbit
81 the Dell Rapid6 Tribune, The Sioux

have al been looked after literally,
while Tommy Ryan has been cruelty
overlooked. Probably Bro. Bascom
regarded him as no help to the cause.
