not a man of high standing in the par

WHO PAYS THE AXES?

Washington, although a farming
state, has exempted much personal
property from taxes. A law, recently
sustained by the supreme court. says
that mortgages, notes, accounts, money
deposited In bank, state, county and
municipal bonds shall not be consid-
cred property for the purpose Of tax
alton.
The things mentioned are, of course,
not wealth, but merely %evideices OF
wealth-like stocks and bonds ard al
paper money. That academic fact,
however, was hardly the reason for
the exemption. The real motive. as
We understand it, was to invite CAPT
tai: in fine, that, as a net result, the
state would get capital cheaper by moi
taxing 1t than by taxing 1t. Probably
that expectation will be realized.
II money that is untaxed loans al
eight per cent. and a tax equal to one
per cent be added, money will then
loan at nine per cent. The borrower
pays the tax. If the lender Is sue
cessful in lodging the assessor, the
borrower pays the tax and the state
does not get it. CAPITAL flows where
| the attraction is greatest
Probably the borrowers in Washing
ton will gain by paying all the taxes
themselves n securing a more abun
dant supply Of loanable capital, with
consequent lower interest rates.
This whole difficult tax question
would be somewhat less dinicult If II
were clearly understood that the MAJ
who seems to be paying the tax very
often isn't paying it.-Saturday Even

only has had crowds to hear him, but
he has made the kind of speeches thai

Republican Victory.

Tuesdays election resulted in a
sweeping republican victory in the
nation, state and county. Latest re-
ports are to the effect that Vim. H.
Taft will have 29l electoral votes as
against 1872 for Mr.. Bryan.
The news in regard to the congres.
sional situation shows a republican
majority of 81 in the house of repre-
sentatives and "A in the senate.
The majority in South Dakota for
Taft is about 25,O00 according to last
reports, while Vessey for governor
will have about 5000 majority The
Legislature is republican by about the
same majority as two years ago.
In this county everything is repub-
lican, except the office of sheriff,
which went to T. 2. Goodwin, the
present incumbent, by small major
ity, about A. The democrats had
made an extra effort to land VIM.
Brannan, of Whitewood in the state
senate, but failed by about 300 votes.
The republican majority in this coun
ty on the balance of the ticket is
about 900.
Returns are so incomplete as to
amendments and laws submitted that
no reliable information can be given
at this time. 1t is supposed however,
that county option will carry by about
200 majority. The vote on that ques-
tion throughout the state will be clos
er than the friends of the measure ex-
pected.
Taft carried Ohio by $4,000, but
the state went democratic on COVER
nor. This was about the situation in
Minnesota where Tait's plurality is
about 10000 and Johnson, democrat
up for third term, carried the state by
$4,000.
In New York Taft's plurality is
l99,5S5, an increase over Roosevelt of
14000 This is a surprise to both
partieS.

The failure OF the Bank of North
America, of New York City, last
October was due more to dishonesty
of its president, Charles w. Morse,
than to the financial stingency. Later
developments show that such directors
as john W. Gates, j. p. Morgan, H.
M. Flagler, of Standard Oil, and
other great financiers, regarded their
positions as mere honory titles con-
ferred upon them to give the institu-
ton standing in the financia world,
and not that the positions charged
them with responsibility to patrons of
the bank. Under these conditions
the president, Mr.. Morse overdrew
his personal account S5900O000 and
deposited as security stock in the ice
trust, the price of which stock Mr..
Morse manipulated on the market.
The result of the crooked work of
MIR. Morse was the failure of the
bank. To some such an instance is
strong argument for the government
guarantee of bank deposits. In way
such an argument looks reasonable.
But that would be treating the effect
without an effort to do away with the
cause. In such case we find an
argument for two things. A better
examination into the. condition of
banks, and law making directors re-
sponsible for the conduct of the banks
business and affairs. Not one of the
directors named would have allowed

One of the remarkable features oi
the election in this state occurred in
Minnehaha county where Geo. w
Egan, the disbarred attorney, was
elected states attorney by the largest
vote given any republican on the tick
ct in that county. Egan's majority
was estimated Wednesday at nearly
5000. Our readers are all familiar
with the Egan case. Egan was ex-
tremely activein the campaign against
Kittredge last spring. He was can
didate for states attorney and incur
red the displeasure of a number of
the Sioux Falls attorneys, who.
through spite and jealousy, brought
disbalment proceeding against him.
Egan was disbarred by the supreme
court in thirty days from the time
the action was commenced It ap.
peared as if the haste with which this
case was disposed of was for the pur,
pose of preventing Egan from hold
ing the office. or making his election
impossible, at least the case was Civ

Egan went before the people, and
the large majority given him is in the

The national administration is still
harping on national grain inspec-
ton law To us this looks very much
like horse play. OF what benefit
would a national grain inspection law
be to the producer of the grain9 The
farmer hauls his grain to the market
and, if it is of an inferior quality,
usually sells it for more than it is
actually worth. This is true of every
locality where there is competition
in the grain trade, and that means
nearly all the towns in this state, and
every state producing any consider,
able quantity of grain. Take it here
at De Smet, for instance. There i /, not
one bushel of whea.out of five haul
ed to this market hat grades One
Northern, and yet there is not one
bushel out of five that is sold at less
than one Northern price. Everything
that looks like oats is bought on this
market at Three White price, and not
one load out of ten will come up to
that grade. Barley cannot be graded
that way, unless it all goes into the

REBATING STILL PRACTICED

1t Will not serve TO help the rail
roads in their efforts to have suspen-
sion OF the movement for their com
plete subiection to control to have
such facts come out as were develop
ed yesterday in the suit of the Unit
ed States 10 dissolve the Standard
Oil corporations. After the Elkins
act and, especially, since the rate
laws enactment, they have assured the
country that rebating in interstate
commerce has ceased utterly. They
are good now and, please, let us
alone.
In the hearing in that suit the divi-
sion freight agent of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad admitted that Standard
Oil is given rate of 9 cents on oil
shipments between Olean and Rochest-
er, lO6 miles, while other oil shippers,
for practically the same distance, are
charged % cents a barrel, that the 9.
cent tariff had never been filed with
the Interstate Commerce commission
and that the rate given Standard Oil
was kept secret from competing
lines.
Olean, the initial, and Rochester,
the terminal points of shipment, are
within the state of New York. Con
sequently, the shipments being wholly
intrastate, the interstate commerce
law is imperative. The state only
has jurisdiction over such matters.
This will, undoubtedly be the answer
and justification both of the Penn
sylvania railroad for making the con-
cession in rate, and of Standard Oil
for accepting it. And were the action
one against either for violating the
rate law the answer would. doubtless,
be sufficient defense.
But what does it disclosed The fact
that railroads and shippers will
violate, not the law but the spirit of
the law wherever the law does not
specifically apply to them; that they
are as willing as ever to discriminate
between shippers and to aid the
greater one in suppressing its com

fact that the local telephone exchanges

live towns. The telephone lines are
assessed and taxed by the state board
1t is true that each county gets its
proportion, but that does not help
the schools nor to bear the burdens
imposed upon other classes of prop
erty. 1t may take an amendment to
the constitution or special law, but
whatever it may require to allow
cities and towns to impose special tax
on this class of property should be
provided. We hope Kingsbury couu
ty has member of the legislature
sufficiently enterprising to push this
matter.
