with Puck and Judge and all the rest of the funny papers. And really, as a joker Howe has got the whole bunch beat a good mile and three inches. Almost every day now he has a good joke on some one, but last Thursday he handed out one of his very best to w. F. Holt. He said Holt was up to Imperial promoting a gambling scheme. Howe sur prised even his most intimate friends in this special effort of his-it was so rare and racy.
 We expect to hear of the Stand ard adding a cartoonist to it's staff and coming out in week or so with colored covers. In fact from sources that savers of the Imperial bunch, comes the news that Howe has another up his sleeve which he is goiHg to spring pretty soon. Now that you are notified, please don't blame us if you should break a hamcstring laughing the next time. But the idea of WE. Holt promoting a gambling scheme seems to be about the limit-how can anything be really funnier than that?

ALITTLE SURPRISE

That a stiff movement in real estate would come in the fall wac to be expected and each section of the valley has been preparieg to meet the incoming investors and as much property as could be found for sale has been listed against that busy day in the fall when the valley would teem with new corners; but that such an event would happen right in the middle of the summer in any sec ton never was considered for a moment and when the late rush for property ln and near El Gen. tro came, every real estate agent was taken off his balance. How ever, they soon regained their equilibrium and got down to bus mess. They had naturally be- lieved the buyers of property who wish to locate near the new county seat would wait until at- ter the election to make their sell ection of property, but this prov ed to be wrong. The delegation of people who came to the valley this week and without an excep- tion bought property either ln Fl Centro or just as close as they could get, did not deem 1t even advisable to hold back any longer in the matter. They could see very clearly that El Centro was in the front rank right now and would prove under any and all circumstances the commercial center in the future, as we'll as at the present time. It is also a matter of moment that prices of land near El Centro are getting higher all the time-and there are a great many farms which cannot be had at any price just now. And the town itself is keeping pace with all the country advancement-b buildings are un- der way, new ones being con- tracted for, and all along the line you see the forward movement of prosperity in Fl Centro. It's got the right sort of people in it. Here is where things are kept moving.

Mr. and Mrs. V.

A caller at the Press office Tuesday is our informant that there are a number of people in the valley who are labOring un- der false impression about the election to soon come off.

The three questions are to be set tied at one and the same time. The oficc- q@cs.:o2 to d2y ;c j%st as important as either the county division or the county seat.

It will be observed In the arti- cle on the front page where men- tion is made of the movement of real estate in and around Fl Gen. tro that there are three John Does accredited with buying from one to two lots apiece. This was not done to pad the list, but out of respect to the buyers who es- pecially requested the agent who sold them the lots to keep their names from the public until after election. They were Imperial business men and can see very plainly the way the wind is blow ing and have sense enough to get in out Of the wet.

Resolutions.

We, the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union of South Dakota. in
nineteenth convention assembled, ex-
press our gratitude to our Heavenly
Father for His guidance and blessing
in all departments of our work the
past year. We reatfirm our undying
hostility to the liquor traffic and our
adherence to the basic principles of
our organization as Get forth in the
following resolutions:
TOTAL ABSTINENCE
We rejoice that the verdict of science
condemns even the moderate use of
alcohol, and affirm with renewed en-
phasis our belief that total abstinence
from alcoholic liquors is the only safe
law for each human life.
PROHIBITION
(a) We reaffirm our belief in legal
prohibition for state and nation, and
renew our protest against all govern
ment completely with the liquor traffic
(bl We protest against the Federal
government issuing liquor tax receipts
in prohibition territory.
(c) We oppose any measure look
ing to the establishing of the sale of
beer or other Intoxicating liquor in
the army canteen, and we urge con-
tinued effort for the passage of q law
forbidding the sale of intoxicating
drinks within four miles of any army
post.
(d) We urge that the temporary
prohibition of the sale of beer in Ma
tional Soldiers homes be made per-
petual.
Whereas, The purity of national
life is dependent on the purity of indi-
vidual life, and
Whereas, In many of the cities and
towns of our states disreputable
houses, with the payment of q month
~ fine are unmolested,
Resolved, That we believe in an
eq ual standard of purity for men and
women, and that standard always the
highest.
Resolved, That we are opposed to
all state regulation of vice, and shall
endeavor to secure in this state, legal
protection for the innocent and de.
fenceless, and impartial punishment
for ali offenders.
FRANCHISE
We reaffirm our 10y atty to the prin-
ciple that taxation without represen-
tation is tyranny, and that for the
women of South Dakota to be longer
classed with convicts, the insane, un-
taxed Indians and idiots, is an insult
| ferable humiliation, and we pledge
our united and best efforts to secure
the submission of On amendment to
the constitution, giving women the
ballot on the same terms @ men.
