ship building industry. CertalnIy
neither Roosevelt nor the western
governors are responsible for this dis
tress.#
The simple fact is that for the last
five or six years there have been boom
times over the civilized world. Boom
times mean wild speculation, extrava-
gance, lower standard of morals.
The harvest of foolishness and wrong
doing must be reaped, and dull times
and sometimes hard times must follow
of necessity.
The repeal of every law On the
statute book, the enactment OF which
was due to Roosevelt or to men who
sympathize with his views, will not
restore the old times. After period
of undue excitement and riOt0us liv-
ing there comes sickness, and recov-
cry is always slow. This sickness is
in itself healing process, the sickness
being symptom OF the disease but
not the disease itself. So 1t is In IL
nance and in all forms OF business,
a period of wild speculation must be
followed by period of depression.
In time this will restore sound busi-
ness conditions. Many will become
bankrupt; many will be impoverished.
Many will find it necessary to be eco
nomical and conservatives; and this is
a sign of health and not of disease

The senate journal for the 1907 ses-
sion OF the legislature reports the votes

ing the following:

the Insane.
State Fair.
Buildings on State Fair grounds.
Building for The South Dakota Live

State University.
Stale School Of Mines,
Speart fish Normal.
Expenses circuit judges.
These include all the appropriation
bills except those for deficiency pur-
poses and few others for trivial
amounts.
The Senate Journal shows that *. E..
Dowdell, who was a member from the
Eighteenth district, voted for every
one of these appropriations, with the
single exception of that for the hor-
ticultural society. He was absent when
the roll was called for that bill, ap-
propriating the sum OF $3.50.
Here are all the appropriations,
constituting necessarily what the dem
ocratic platform declares is extrava-
gance, and here is the democratic can
didate for congress supporting every
one of them by his vote.
The Press is inclined to sympathize
with Mr.. Dowdell in this attack upon
his record as member of the state
senate. This paper is willing to con.
cede that Senator Dowdeli acted hon.
orably and patriotlcally in supporting
all these appropriations. Il may be
taken for granted that Senator Dow
dell has enough pride in the states
institutions to want to build them up,
especially when the state is out of
debt and the growth in value of its
property constantly yields greater
income with the same levy.
AT least the democratic platform
might have specified which ones of the
above appropriations was "extrava-
CANT" and unwarranted. Senator Do "
dell is entitled to bill of particulars.

ing in court and they should not be
allowed in politics. A demurrer from

NEW YORK, March 3O.-The
wonders of concrete construction

thousand-dollar concrete house
which could he made while you

the front with concrete ships.
Such vessels can be made on
steel frames with the concrete re-
inforced by round iron bars. The
outside surface exposed to the
water is made of an extra layer of
concrte over W re netting, and kept
perfectly smooth and water tight
by an external coat of pure cement.
Bulkheads, decks and event cab
ms can be constructed of cement
in the same manner. Vessels built
of cement cost only one half what
steel boat does, and it is claim
ed for them that they neeI never
be painted and very rarely require
repairs.
A company in Rome, Italy, has
built several concrete boats which
are in use on the Tiber. The form
of construction has been specially
useful for pOntOOnS.

attention to the fact that at least
100000 working people in New

verge of starvation. 1t was intend
ed to pass resolutions setting forth
these facts and appealing to city
and state authorities to give them
work if possible.
The police refused TO permit
the meeting and started to clear
the square with clubs. Somebody
showed Inspector Schmittberger,
who commanded the squad, the fed
eral constitution guarantee of right

officer held up his club. saying it

The inspector followed the Rus

style of protest by attempting TO
hurl a bomb. 1t exploded in his
hands, mangling him frightfully
