Tell The Truth.

cities are publishing news of the
of manufacturing
plants which were closed dur
ing the panic and of thousands
of men being again put to work
in factories that had reduced
their working force. While it
is pleasant to record thatEbusi-
ness is improving it does not
pay to try to force such inn
provement by misstatements.
The National Glass Budget,
published at Pittsburg, lets the
cat out Of the bag concerning
the actual condition of affairs
in that great manufacturing
center when it editorially says;
"Four months ago, when
mills and factories IN fltts-
burg were closing down or
curtailing production daily
and throwing into idleness
thousands Of workmen, local
publishers lied nobly, under
the mistaken idea that they
knew it all and that the masses
were not cognizant'of what was
going on around them. If an
extra chore boy was put to
work at one of our mills the adj
dition was multiplied by 1000
and the squirt industry had
taken was announced under
glaring headlines, but not a
word did they say about the I'M
favorable phase OF the situation
all of which was commend
able and a credit to the. trainers
of public opinion. Readers Of
the lies printed took their medi-
cine in silence, believing that
healthy conditions would speedi-
ly return and that with their
advent the big, dailies would
feel warranted in merging
from the Ananias class. Bust
ness has improved somewhat (;
men thrown out of employment
last fall are slowly but surely
being called back to work
again, but some of the dailies
have reversed themselves and
are harping on the calamity
string in such a manner as can
not fail to have a bad effect on
mercantile as well as industrial
pursuits. One har even gone
so far as to start q fund for the
out-of-work, with its accom-
panying front page of calamity
bowling daily, which will
doubtless cause labors to lose
more money hourly than the
donation hunters will be able
to drum up in a week"
Why does the Associated
Press and the "big dailies.''
which support Republican
policies, try to deceive the
people on what is actually hap |
pening? 1t is safe to say as
far as the Pittsburg papers are
concerned that they view the
panic aud the present business
as an unanswerable
against the tariff
which protects the Steel and
other trusts.
The trusts may succeed in
again becoming prosperous, but
it will be as before at the ex-
pense of the people who pay
high tariff prices. Tariff re-
form is the only way that pros
perity for the many can be
brought about and that is the
issue that the organs of the pro-
bected interests are trying to OBJ

personal reasons is attempting to

Years, and yet he attempts to throw
dust into the eyes of South Dakota

On the third of November the new
school of agriculture will open. Peo-
pie of BroOkings should be prepared
to take care of a very large influx of
students at that time. There has long
been an urgent need for some institu-
ton at which the boy and girl from
the country school can complete their
education, a place where the student
will feel at home and not be embaras-
sed as he is in the town high school
by the fact that students so many
years his. junior are higher in the class
rank on account of their superior ad-
vantages. At the same time this
school being in session but five months
in the year gives and energetic boy or
girl a chance to- make all their expens-
es in the summer time or help their
people on the farm or in the home.
There is ample room and elegant ac-
comodations for the young ladies in
the dormitory, but the boys will be
accommodated as heretofore, in private
homes. From present indications this
will be n of the largest departments
Of the college.

most remarkable liking for the baby.
