half the ball was near the center OF
the field, although it was within 20
yards of both goals. On one occasion
Huron carried the bail within 80

which failed. In the middle CT the
half Wallace was injured and replac-

side kicks, only one of which was
successful.
Mitchell's line held good against
their heavier opponents, with the
possible exception of center where
Weir, who is probably the best man
at that position in the state, played.

Mitchell was outweighed at every
position, except LETT tackle, the boys
put up a game fight to the ENC of the

BEWARE OF
COUNTY OPTION
lit Means County,
Prohibition
an Attempt IL Force Statewide Pro-
hibition Upon South Dakot
by Il %Subtcrfugc Named
County Option.

The Anti-Saloon League OF this
state is making an aggressive fight
for the so-called county option law,
which will be voted on November Sd,
in the shape of an amendment to the
present law. The argument which is
being used by the county optionists.
particularly among the farmers, is
that the proposed amendment is a
farmers rights bill and gives them
the right to decide whether or not
saloons shall exist in their county.
This is not true. The amendment is
not a farmers rights bill. 1t is a
prohibition bill. It does not give the
farmers, or anyone else for that mat
ter, the right to vote whether or not
saloons shall exist in their county.
Under the amendment, if it be-
comes q law, the whole county will
vote on the license question. and if
The county, as a whole, votes mo IL
cense," then no license can issue any
where within the county; but if the
county, as a whole, votes in favor of
license, the vote does not COUNT
does not make the county wet" Lii
censes cannot be granted in cities or
villages within that county unless
they again vote locally in favor of
license just as they do now under
the present law.
Hence, there is nothing in the de-
ceptive farmers rights argument.
The farmers can vote a county dry"
but they cannot vote it wet" Now,
the right to vote implies a choice, but
there is no choice here. Denial OF
choice does not give a right-it takes
away a right.
The proposed law is a prohibition
measure. pure and simple. 1t means
prohibition, groggeries and blind
| Pigs, with all their attendant evils
aad costs of prosecutions, of which
| this state once had a taste under the
old prohibition law.
Read what the leaders Of the Anti
! Saloon League say:
On Feb. %, 1908, Purley A. Baker.
national superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League, said: Prohibition
of the liquor traffic everywhere in
this country is the end toward which
we hope and labor" q
Bishop L. B. Wilson, president Of
the Anti-Saloon League of America,
! says in American ISSUE" the a
t:onal organ of the league: There
need be no misunderstanding of our
purpose by either friend or foe. We
seek the suppression of the traffic in
strong drink as a beverage, whether
J the place where it is dispensed be
~legalized or unlegalized."
Now, let US have a reconcilement
| of the argument on the n hand.
that the amendment is a farmers
rights bill designed 10 give the peo-
pie a right to decide whether or not
saloons shall exist in their county,
and their platform on the other
hand, that they propose to suppress
the traffic, whether the place where
it is carried on be legalized or unle-

L was elected county auditor at the

The Office of county auditor has

Value OF a LAUGH.

The value of good natured laugh
may be- rated low by some people. but
many writer's have attcsted its worth
In no measured terms.
IL Is not surprising that the merry
Charles Lamb should have said. "a
laugh IL worth 100 groans IN any mar
ket," but from the lips of the somber
Carlyle one Is scarcely prepared TO
hear, NO man who has once heartily
and wholly laughed can be altogether
or irrcclaimahy bad"
II was Douglas Jerrold who boldly
stated that what was talked of as
the golden chain of Jove was nothing
but succession OF laughs. Il chro-
matte scale of merriment reaching
from earth to olympus"
Il am persuaded" wrote Laurence
Sterne, that every time man smiles.
but much more so when he laughs. II
adds something TO his fragment of

Holmes, given with his own inimitahle
humor, "Thc riotous tumult Of laugh
