CURRENT EVENTS.
Clipped from the Exchanges Which
Come to Our Table.

Mrs. Guinness is reported to be in
South Dakota masquerading as a
man. Search is being made for her
in the insurgent ranks.
If the campaign should last much
longer there would be danger that
Crawford would convince himself
that he was really great parsonage.
The debt of the state has been
increased by $4,000 during the
first year of Crawford, but we have
meanwhile had lot of talk about
reform" and perhaps that is worth
all it costs.
The state was clear of debt jan
uary 1907, and was in debt, not,
counting Irvine plant or state capitol
on January /, 1908, $312,000.00.
That's pretty good for one year of a
reform governor.
Taft will be the next president
South Dakota could do nothing 10
bring the state in closer touch with
the next national administration
than to vote to return A. B. Kit.
redge to the senate.
June 9th the people will choose
between Crawfordism and republi-
canism. The least they can do Is to
give about 10000 majority for safe
and sane leadership under Kittredge
and return to sound republican
doctrines.
The local Crawford managers have
a man hired who, it is reported
makes a business Of spending sew
eral dollars day in the local saloons
in the interest of the insurgent cam
paign. Such is reform. Madi-
son Sentinel.
Rev. Mr.. Ware, now serving a sen
tence in the federal penitentiary for
committing the sort of crime that
Crawford tried to carry through in
Walworth county, will probably
soon be seeking pardon, while
Crawford is seeking seat in the
United States senate.
Kirk Phillips was beaten by
Andrew Lee for governor on the cry
that he took for his own use the
interest paid by banks for the use
Of the funds of the state. That
charge is true against the present
treasurer, Mr.. Cassill. 1t ought to
beat him.
Have you had ride in the new
reform auto yet? 1t was bought
in st. Louis, and is radient with red
paint and noise. 1t is going to be
used strickly Sin the cause of edu-
cation" by superintendent who in
his full column announcement did
not once mention the schools of the
state.
Mr.. Crawford hasn't yet explained
about those affidavits that the
Huron young men have furnished
the land department at Washington.
Until Mr.. Crawford shall show that
these boys are lying, he will have an
exceedingly hard time to convince
the average man that he was not
engaged in an effort to grab some of
Uncle Sans domain.
Mr.. Crawford has reached the
zenith of his political power and his
political sun is setting. No man
can uphold graft, great or petty,
and retain his hold upon public con.
fidence. No man can support
grafters for public Office and main
tain his own standing in the COM
munity. No man can resort to
illegal methods to enlarge the scope
Of his grazing lands and continue to
be regarded az an honest citizen.

will occur on the ninth Of June.

brain power, great executive ability,
and, what is more to the point, he is
universally recognized as man of
sterling character and unimpeacha-
bic integrity. In the northern part
Of the state, where Mr.. Wickre is
we'll known, it is conceded, even by
the insurgent managers, that he will
run especially strong. He has
recently made flying trip through
some of the southern counties, and
wherever he has visited he has
impressed his personality upon those
with whom he has come in contact
In addition to his extensive stock
business, Mr.. Wickre conducts a
large farm, comprising about twelve
hundred acres, including his grazing
grounds. The people of South
Dakota will make no mistake in
electing him to position on the
board of railway commissioners
Sioux Falls Argus Leader.
Mr.. Crawford must be in des-
perate straits when he so boldly
stoops to misrepresentation and
falsehood in his effort for self
agrandizement. At Sioux Falls he
made the statement. that the North
western superintendent at Huron
issued orders to trainmen on the day
Senator Kittredge spoke in Huron
to handle only perishable goods and
to run their trains in to Huron in
time for the Kittredge meeting so
that all the railroad men could go
and hear the senator. The state
ment is false. In Mr.. Crawford's
classical way of putting it it would
be called 'hellish lie," but we are
satisfied to have it branded as abso-
lutely false and so brand it. The
railroad men of Huron will have to
come to the conclusion that either
Mr.. Crawford is a liar or that Sup
erintendent Moulton is. From
expressions we have heard it is not
difficult to determine whom they
think is the liar.

The superintendent of Schools.
Editor of Reporter and Farmer.
Dear Sir:-Last January at a school
entertainment, in our district, several
patrons in discussing various topics
naturally brought mp questions relating
to school work, the school officers, pat
rons and all present, were most IMAM
imous in declaring the schools to be in
better condition and with q higher
standard than ever before, and that
Mr.. Hetley has worked harder and done
more for their advancement and better.
ment than any superintendent in their
memory; Furthermore they regretted,
that our present law would net permit
him, personally, to be a candidate for
reelection this fall. The chairman of
the school board was applauded by all,
when he brought forth his plan, which
made it possible to still have Mr. Het-
ley's excellent service continue on
through another term. "We'll get his
wife to run and make him do the work"
was the way this jovial, sincere man
expressed it., and its sufficient to say
that he always has the welfare of his
children first in every consideration.
Several of the gentlemen said they
would lay this matter before Mr..
Hetley aud there is good reason to
believe that this same sentiment has
existed in all parts of the county and
has influenced MIR. Hetley to take this
step. He deserves everv bit OF his pop
ularity, for it is seldom superintend-
emit Is able to arouse such spirit of
activity and interest among teachers,
pupils and patrons as is plainly evident
in this county. He has been able to do
this through his thorough knowledge
OF the work, by his skill in keeping in
touch with teacher and students due to
his personal letters aud interest shown
IN them; by his untiring efforts and
strict attention to duty. / have no
ak to grind and am uninterested, except
that believe it my duty to recall to
your mind some facts that all interested
in school work must be familiar with.
Coming from Minnesota, where it is
not unusual to find man of Mr.. Het-
ley's type who has been in Office for a
period of IL to Is years, it seems odd to
think we must change superinte ndents
every other term, even though we may
need that man the worst way in our
schools. However we are not evading
the law when we place Mrs. Hetley in
the office Of superintendent for we are
then obtaining . person of capable abil-
ity and extensive experience in school
work, and right along with her. az q
sort Of . prize. we get Mr.. Hstley as an
assistant, and he viii b right there as
usual with AL his energy and love for
HE work which indeed has made his
term a superintendent : most profit
able one for our Day county schools.
Thanking you for this privilege. am,
Sincerely yours.

LAW AND ORDER IN KENTUCKY

Those forces in modern society that
make for law and order are working
Throughout the state. One manifesto
ton is the formation of Law ant
Order leagues in different sections Of
the state. Another is a demand like
that contained in the Springfield Sun
written by the editor, Mr.. Gore. one
of the organizers of the Equity so
ciety. calling upon that society to
make restoration of order its chief
concern.
In the western part of the state the
courts are acting under Judge Reed
and Judge Wells in a manner to COM
mand the respect and confidence of
the whole state.
At Winchester, Judge Benton speaks
in unmistakable tones. and Judge
Parker, in Fayette, is equally en-
phatic.
This means that the state. long
patient, is at last aroused and lawless-
ness is TO be suppressed by the due
process of law.
1t is easy for those outside of the
disturbed section to express their
horror and indignation at prevalent
conditions, but it is matter of grave
difficulty for the representatives OF
the state on the bench and off of it,
in a community largely terrorized and
inundated, to put in operation those
processes upon which the state relies
for the protection of its citizens.
The first duty of every citizen OF
the state is by his own course, by all
he does and all that he says, to aid
those officers who are striving to pun
lsh crime, to destroy the ascendency
Of criminal organizations, to restore
to every man. however humble, pro-
lection for his life and the control Of
his property. - Louisville Evening
Post.

Washington. April S.-By a yea
and nay vote OF 1873 to 1871 the advo-
Gates OF a proposition TO place the
statute of General Grant In the ellipsc
back Of the white house instead of in
the botanic gardens. and thus cause
the removal of the Crittenden and
Beck trees. failed to secure the neces-
sary two-thirds vote in the house and
the bill remains on the calendar. The
vote shows that a majority OF IN,
mombers oppose the plan OF the
memorial commissioners, but the par
procedure made a two
thirds vote necessary. and upon this
they lost. As the machinery for NOV
ing the trees has arrived at the
botanic gardens. It is assumed that
before the question can be taken up
again In the house the work of do
struction will have been commenced.
The subject of the removal Of the
trees gave inspiration for dozen or
so one-minute speeches.

THE HIDDEN SORE

The interstate commerce commits
sion has established by positive proof
what everybody knew all along. that
certain interests through the agency
or holding companies manipulate the
big interstate commerce carrying lines
with minority of the stock. While
we should be uncharitable and blind
TO our own natural human shortcom-
ings, If we did not give heed to the
full freedom of individuals TO acquire
as much property and power as they
can without interfering with the rights
of others, and they have the intellect
to manage; yet there is menace in
this sort of concentration, especially
when the real owners of the controll-
ing stock are operating under an alias.
The shipping and consuming public
and the stockholding public are inter-
ested.
The former is interested. because
the same people are manipulating the
stock of competing railroads and of
the big trusts that ship over their
lines, and they naturally may be ex-
pected to favor themselves as against
competitors. The stockholders are
interested, because the railroads un-
der this system, instead of rivalling
each other in economy of manage
ment and returns on their investments
pay most attention to manipulating
the earnings in deals among them
selves. Since they own both the ma
terial shipped and the carrier, it makes
no difference to them from which
source they derive the profit; but it
does to the people, who buy railroad
stock.
Here Is another hidden industrial
sore that the X-ray of publicity will
heal.

HOW TO INSURE
a PERFECT COMPLEXION.
by DOROTHY NENN.

Any woman can have a soft, velvety
skin and glowing complexion If she
will only give 1t little attention and
faithfully observe a few common sense
rules.
The very first thing to remember is
always to dry the skin thoroughly
after washing. Nothing will so quick
~ cause rough skin and tendency to
"chapping" as leaving the face only
half dry. The towel upon which the
face is dried should never be relin-
pushed until every drop of moisture
has been absorbed. This is the first
and most important OF all rules for
keeping ones complexion in good con-
dition.
Perhaps the next thing to be OBJ
served with equal care is the temper
AZURE of the water. Except in very
warm weather, do not use cold water
See that II is lukewarm, and where
the skin is inclined TO redness 1t is
well to have II as hot as can be borne
Every night and morning after
washing and thoroughly drying face,
neck and bands, use a wash which is
made as follows: Obtain at drug
store. rose water. ounces; cologne,
spirits, l ounce; Eppotone (skin food
4 ounces.
Put the Eppotone In a pint of hot
water mot boiling), and after dis
solved, strain. and let cool. Then add
the rose water and cologne spirits.
This will not only help to eradicate
skin blemishes but will keep your
complexion in perfect condition. This
wash does away with the necessity
for powder, as II keeps the skin
smooth and soft and prevents 1t from
oily or shiny.
