years. 1t is positively stated that
there are distinct traces of water in
some of them.
The Methodists at the Baltimore
general conference have removed
the disciplinary ban on dancing,
card playing and theatre going,
leaving these matters to the indi-
vidual consciences OF members.
One insurgent mud battery seems
to have been very effectively settled.
Attorney Egan, Of Sioux Falls, does
not appear to be making any more
speeches. His record has been
looked up and the insurgents dis
covered that if it was sprung it
would be louder than his voice so
they pulled him off the stump.
Wisconsin paper manufacturers
recommend the making of black
newspapers to be printed in white
ink. This is proposed to save the
destruction OF forests for wood pulp
paper stock, as old newspapers: and
many other waste products can be
utilized for the black paper. The
raw material for the manufacture of
paper is fast becoming subject of

We read the press dispatches that
Scotty Phillips buffalo lately taken
to Mexico killed three bulls in
thirty foot pen, before crowd of
FIVE thousand people at Juarez last
Saturday. The buffalo is now to be
shipped to Spain to entertain ROYALTY
there. Thus it is that Sonth Dako-

Boostl If you can't boost, move
ut. If you can't boost and cant
move, at least keep still. If the
town is good enough to live in, it is

town or community as whole helps
the individual members of the com.
munity, helps the community col
lectively. Don't be selfish. Boost!

Senator Gamble by the Crawford
machine two years ago Senator
Kittredge was approached and an
offer was made to pledge the inau-
ence Of the organization for second
term for Kittredge, providing the
latter would support Crawford for
CANDLES position. This is only
another evidence Of the itch OF the
Crawford crowd for Office regardless
Of the methods Of obtaining the
same.
The one complete and invincible
answer to every thing the insurg-
ents have made their campaign upon
in South Dakota are the simple facts
that President Roosevelt imposes
implicit confidence in Senator Kilt
redge, advises with him and
depends upon him and Secretary
Taft who 10 his bosom friend and con-
fident. To reflect upon the politi-
cal integrity Of Senator Kittredge is
TO reflect with equal severity upon
the integrity and astuteness OF the
president and Secretary Taft.
Let us not forget the several laws
and constitutional amendments be-
fore the people upon referendum.
