saloons want to Run the state.

Many III nOu all Sdiooh ~"
fighting Senator Wesley ne
stands for temperance, morality aha
good government. Governor Eiroo
and Governor Crawford are temper
ance men, yet the saloons put up no
open fight against them,
County Option is what the saloons
and breweries are fighting hardest
and they are trying to make people
believe that Wesley, If elected Cover
nor, would eat up all the saloon men.
The county option question will be
settled by the voters on November D.
and Vessey as governor would not
have any say in the matter.
The county option fight is only a
cloak under which democrats are
working to try and elect Lee n a
democratic Legislature. The denno-
Gratis are using County Option to 100
republicans with and will no doupo
fool some. All the whisky interests
and saloon keepers are working Tor
LEES election and the defeat or re-
publican members Of the legislature.
1t is the same old fight.
Shall the saloons run the state as
formerly under the direction of Nose
Kaufman.
Shall a temperance state be de-
bauched because manufacturers or
whisky and beer and saloon men de-
mand it?
Shall It be said that South Dakota
with all her churches and schools Is
still in favor of rum as against tenn
perance: In favor Of hell as against
religion and morality; in favor OF
misery and ruin as against happy
homes.
If the day should ever come when
saloon interests shall dominate this
state then indeed may we be num-
bered among the people who en-
brace rum and decay instead OF pros
perity and happiness.
The LEADER does not believe that
partisan politics or patriotic citizens
will ever elect a whisky candidate for
governor over a temperance candi-
date, and we urge every temperance
man to do his full duty next Tuesday.
A vote for the prohibition candidate
for governor Is a vote against Wesley
and in favor OF saloons.

Washington, Feb. 27.-That there

phaticaily declared by the president

his views on educational methods at
considerable length and with eharac.

vigor of expression. The president
said
1T is idle for any man to talk of

present.
fundamentally, this country Is
sound; morally no less than physie-
ally. Fundamentally, in its family
life and in the outside activities OF
its individuals the country is better
and not worse than it formerly was.
This does not mean that we are TO be
excused II we fail TO war against rot.

contend effectively with the forces of
evil; and they waste their time who
ask me to withhold my hand from
dealing Herewith.
''But it is worth while to szlite the
wrong for the very reas,a that we
are confident the right viii ultimately
prevail. You who are training the
next generation are training this
country as it is to be decade or two
