DEMOCRATIC CRITICISM UNJUs.
Titled.

The democratic party Of South Da.
kota will find that it can make little
Roadway with the votes of this state
by its brutal attempt to drag the edu.
c~ational institutions into the mire of
partisan politics. No one policy of the
present state administration has com
mended itself to the people moe than
the determination Of Governor Craw-
ford and the board Of regents appoint
above the party scrambles and in
trigues. During the present admins
tration the one great purpose of the
board Of regents and the governor has
been to build up the institutions, and
to place merit and unselish sery;c,
above everything else. In the recent
factional fights the opponents OF the
governor did not attempt to criticise
the management Of the state institu-
tions by the boards of control, because
they knew that it could not be sue
cessfully assailed.
Now comes the democratic party in
it's platform and asks that 1t be al
lowed to rescue the educational IN
situations of the state from the cor.
rupt political board of regents, who
are and have been despoiling the In
stitutions by partisan appointments,
filling the highest educational posi-
lions with politicians whose only
qualification was party service to- a
corrupt ring of bosses" The present
state administration came into power
just after a new president had been
elected at the State University. There
had been trouble a short time before,
both at Bookings and Vermillion.
Much feeling existed and there was
more or less of internal jealousies
and discussions.
The governor before taking the
oath of Office, at his own expense.
visited each of the state institutions
and made personal inspection of
them. He let it be distinctly known
that the policy of his administration
would be to keep partisanship out of
their management entirely. One mem.
Der of the board of regents was a dem.
ocrat, who had been appointed by
Andrew Lee. He was not disturbed.
Three vacancies upon the board were
filled by appointment by Governor
Crawford. In making these appoint
ments, he selected Mr.. Forrest, of
Britton, who was known as a stalwart
in politics; Mr.. Erickson of Elk Point,
who was a member of the faction
with which the governor is identified,
and Mr.. Norby, of Sisseton, a progress
sive republican. All are men of the
highest character and intelligence and
each of them was in complete SYM
pathy with the desire of the governor
that the management of the institu-
tons be placed above partisanship.
The legislature came to the rescue
of the institutions and provided them
with NV buildings and better equip
ment. Every attempt to open old

from the Black Hills last Thursday

However, r. s. Wesley, the republican
candidate for governor, is everywhere
admitted to be soul of honor, so there
is no issue on that point. Mr.. Wesley
stands for the progressive republican
policies and as a majority Of the voters
of this state are of that faith, mis-
chances for landing the job are decid-
eddy good.-Madison Outlook.

With every day that passes the
hopes OF the democrats Of South Da-
kota Of electing any part OF their
ticket in November grow less. With
a republican majority Of from 10000

democrats is absolutely hopeless.

THOUGHTS WITHOUT THINKING.
BY N. o. Branes.

-
1t was my privilege to spend the
past week at the Minnesota State Fair
and it is sure a good show. To pass
through scores of barns filled with
every description of live stock, roam
over acres given to a display of mach
inery and implements used In agricul-
tural and it's attendant activities, view
the immense display in the Horticul-
tural, Apiary, Seeds. Fish and Game
and other buildings and talk with the
prosperous and contented farmer folk
who were responsible for it all tended
to make one feel that this is a great
country and the folks therein the salt
of the earth. The evidences of pros
perity and wealth SO signally shown
kind of took the edge off the calamity
howl put up by William Jennings
Bryan in his address at that place
Monday evening. Mr.. Bryan's state
ment that the republican party had
been extravagant is without founda-
ton. The facts are that this is a
big country and it takes a big lot of
money to run 1t right, no matter
whether the democrats or republicans
are in power. Mr.. Bryan makes an
entertaining talk but it takes more
than talk to run a billion dollar coun.
try.
The service given patrons along the
North Western line which passes
through Brookings Is a shame and a
disgrace. The cars are old and dirty
and too few and when they consume
twelve hours In going some two hun
dred miles they are wasting our God
given time without reason or sense.
Being unable to get a berth in a sleep
er Friday night we came through In
a day a and when at Mankato a few
got off they set of a couple OF cars
and herded us in the few remaining.
At Tracy another man got of and they
took of a couple of more cars and
herded us some more. There was no
water in the tanks and we rather en-

human beings in such contingencies
as these.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. WOMAN

At the true meaning of mar
riage, our mind is filled with
thoughts. Marriage to woman is
at once the happiest and saddest
event of her life. 1t is the prom
Use of future bliss raised on the
death of all present enjoyment.
She quits her home, her occupa-
tions, her amusements, everything
on which she has heretofore de-
pended for comfort, for affections,
and for pleasure.
The parent by whose advice she
has been guided, the sister to whom
she has dared to impart embryo
thought and feeling; the brother
who has played with her by turns,
the counselor and the counseled :;
the younger children to whom she
has heretofore been the mother
and playmate, all are to be for
saken at one moment, in o sense.
Every former tie is lOosened, every
hope and action is to be changed
on this serious day, yet she feels
with JOY the untrodden path before
her. She bids q fond mdleu to the

excited hopes and Joyous anticipa-
tlons to the happiness to come.
Now, woe to the man who can
blight such fair hopes; who can,
coward-like, break the illusion
that has won her, and destroy the
confidence which love alone has
inspired. There lies in the center
of each mans heart (those who
really possess a heart and are capa-
bic of loving, a longing for purity,
