Brookings Register: The boys are
having lots of sport with Senator Kilt
redge's paper, the Argus Leader, for
publishing lengthy dispatches telling
what crowds greeted the senator at his
meetings when the meetings were not
held until four days after the dispatch
es appeared. This reminds one of the
Jew who wrote letter to his brother
as follows: Dear jacob am sorry
to learn that your store burned last
Thursday" To which Jacob replied:
"Dear Brother mot last Thursday,
but next Tuesday"

ROOSEVELT, TAFT AND PATRONAGE

The president probably lost his la
Dor in replying to the insinuations thu
he was using patronage to forward the
interests of Mr.. Taft. Since it is true,
as thepresident says, that, driven from
one invention, the opponents of Taft
will be equal to another, it appears
almost futile to try to catch up with
them. The best the president can do
is to assert the integrity of his inten-
tions in dispensing patronage, and rely
upon the record of the men appointed
and the fairness of the American people
to justify his use of the appointing
power.
The letter of Mr. Foulke to the presi-
dent, however, has given Mr.. Roose-
velt an opportunity to insert dig at
the bolters in the southern states. 1t
is matter of common report that the
field has combined against Taft in the
southern states, and that the boiling
delegations in Florida and other states
Kingsbury County independent. (DeSmet, Kingsbury County, S.D.) 1894-1929, 1908-02-21

are being speciously dubbed "non-of-
ficeholders." The president suggests
that these non officeholding delegates
are largely would be officeholders who
have been rejected.
As matter of fact, however, it is
scarcely dignified for either side to
expose the character of the delegations
to the republican national conventions
from the south. The less said about
them the better. They represent moth
ing. They are a practically disfran-
chised group of toilers in politics.
They come up to the national conven
tion and swagger about on plane
with the delegations from Iowa, Min
nesota, Pennsylvania and Massachu-
sets, as tho they added something TO
the voting strength of the republican
party. They do not. They are back
ed by nothing but an empty form of
election in which their participa ion
is farce. The republican candidate,
whoever he may be, will have to have
most substantial backing from the
north before he will be accepted as
the real standardbearer of the patty
The delegations from the south may
be accepted as makeweights for such
a candidate, but they cannot be allow
cd to assume the role of holding the
balance of power. Minneapolis Jour

COMPLIMENTS CONGRESSMAN HALL

f. d. Pangburn, who at one time
taught school in Elkton township,
writes an interesting letter from
Washington, d. c., to the Elkton Re
cord, in which he gives Congressman
Hall the following fine compliment:
"The Brookings boy got into the
limelight few days ago when after
five minutes speech a big democrat
thought to put the new member from
South Dakota out of business, but
Philo didn't fade away. He just
went back after aforesaid big demo
crat in such a manner as to bring
out applause and congratulations
from the republican side, and !, right
then and there, discovered the fact
that | was proud of having once been
citizen of Brookings county, South
Dakota If could have caught the
eye of your member | would have
waved my bandana at him from my
perch in the gallery. After an
observation of two years | am pre-
pared to say that no new member of
the house of representatives has a
more promising future of usefulness,
if kept in his present position, or will
develop into more solid and infuen-
tial member of that body, than Philo
Hall, of South Dakota"

IT is a common charge by the Kilt
redge press that "the insurgents
promised lower fares and filled to re-
duce them" The charge is false at
both ends. They did not promise them.
There is not word in the platform
pledging reduction of rates. BUT
THEY DID REDUCE THEM. They
enacted a law directing the board of
railway commissioners to promulgate
a new schedule of fares not higher
than q cents per mile reduction
of l6s per cent. The board has obey.
ed that mandate. Only the injunction
of Judge pending trial of the case)
stands between the people and p
cent fares, and that judge is not a
progressive republican. While the

WHILE the senatorial fight will be a
prominent factor in the next campaign,
and by some regarded as the leading
issue, state matters should not be
forgotten. If reform is to continue
in this state, it is necessary that pro-
gressive candidates be elected next
fall. If the old machine succeeds in
Office, we may look for return to old
methods which the people declared
by an over whelming majority two
yeals ago should no longer have a
place in this state. The issues of two
years ago in this state are the issues
of today because the machine would
go back to the old methods by repeal
and amendment of reform measures
already enacted.

SENATOR Aldrich opened debate on
his bill to add railroad bonds to fed
erals as a basis for note issues. And
the press dispatches says that j. p.
Morgan sat in the Senate gallery and
listened attenIively to his speech.
Parhaps Mr.. Morgan was there merely
out of curiosity to see how a senate
does business. Probably ths house
of j. p. Morgan & Co. is holding some
'undigested securities" which the
Aldrich Allison bill, if enacted, will
pump value into. Most anything is

SENATOR GAMBLE complains that
Senator Kittredge is defeating his bills
by his influence while Gamble is on
the ground and Kittredge is l,500
miles away. This is confession of
weakness on the part of Gamble
which we should think he would
hardly like to make. Argus Leader.
Why don't the Argus Leades tell
the whole truth? The holding up of
the bill complained of by Mr.. Gamble
was accomplished by Kittredge
through his personal and political
friend Kean, of New Jersey, the no
torious corporation senator from a
notorious corporation state, and one
of the most bitter nti-Roosevelt men
in the senate. 1t is no discredit to
Gamble that his bill is held up at
Kittredge's request made through
such man as Kean. Such men have
control of the senate and it is natural
that they should favor any piece of
dirty work asked for by one of them
selves. CANDLES bill provided for
the location of land office at Lem
mon, this state, bill that was rec
commended by the department of the
interior, and one greatly needed by
the settlers of Butte county and the
northwestern part of this state. By
his close association with the corpora
tion senators Kit is able to block leg
islation that is needed by his con-
stituents, and he does not hesitate to
do it, and his own newspaper, his

The Aberdeen News disposes of all
that has been said of its candidate for
governor by saying that all self-owned
newspapers have spoken well of him,
and those that have spoken otherwise
are controlled by Crawford and Office
holders. The fact is that the Aber-
deem News is machine controlled Git is
a part of the machine) and Browne is
controlled by the News. So far as
Mr.. Browne is concerned personally,
he is very nice gentleman, and, so
far as we know, is clean man in his
every day life with his fellow citizens.

islator has been, is now and probably

that But when a senator uses his
influence with a corporation clique for
the purpose of blocking honest leg
islation and using his baseness for
the purpose of trying to fool his mis-

to admit that the republican party of
Idaho betrayed the public and repu-
dated its platform pledges to the peo-
pie. Now will the Post explain why
it is using its influence in behalf of
the same gang that brought the repub-
lican party into disrepute? Why does
he support Brady7 Why, if the party
really did, as the Post admits, deliber-
ately lie to the people, does the Post
condemn the stand taken by the Troy

party dishonesty, and why apologize
for conduct deserving the severest re-

editor that he doesn't measure up to
our Standard" says George Fields IN
the last issue of the Post. Well, every
body knows that the Post editor is
very bright, and that without being
so informed in an editorial written by
Fields personally. People are usually
able to recognize brains, and could
probably do so in the case OF Mr..
Fields, but the young man seems to
incline to the idea that it is safer to
foot his own horn. Failure to produce
single editorial, in ever fifteen
months, brilliant as he is, that any
other editor on earth has considered
worth reproducing, evidently concluded
than if the public was ever to discover
that the Moscow Post had real smart
editor it was up to George Fields to
tell them about it.

II Senator Hepburn finds men in
Idaho opposed to his reelection, and
if some of these live in his home
county, he has no one to blame but
himself. -Four years ago Mr.. Hepburn
had not in the entire state a more ar
dent supporter and loyal friend than B.
F. O'Neil of Wallace, Shoshone
county. Mr.. O'Neil went so far as to
sacrifice large business interests rather
than abandon his friend Hepburn. Mr..
O'Neil even went so for as to finance
the senatorial campaign of Mr.. Hey
burn. He loaned MI. Hepburn a
large sum of money. He stood by
Mr.. Hepburn like brother, and to
Barney O'Neil more than to any other
man in the state, was Mr.. Hepburn in
debted for his election to the senate.
Is it asking too much OF Senator Hey
burn to repay Mr.. O'Neil the money
loaned2 And suppose Senator Hey
burn refuse even to pay the interest?
This may explain why Mr.. Hepburn
was not elected a delegate to the
national convention.

The farmers OF Nez Perez prairie,
says the Herald, have determined to
demand railroad commission from the
next legislature. These farmers have
lately organized Unions, which are
non-partisan, and will insist on a com
mission bill. These farmers claim they
have been denied warehouse privileges
along the N. P. line, and have been
robbed by the wheat combines, and
all because Idaho has no railroad COM
mission to protect public interest.
All of which reminds US that Governor
Gooding proposed such measure, and
that it was defeated by the republicans
in the last legislature. Yet it is a
measure of vital interest to the people,
something most of the other states
have, and something that has resulted
in great good to the people, while
working no hardship on the railroads.
The commission has the power, if the
bill is properly framed, to determine
railroad values for assessment purposes,
and gives basis for fixing rates. By
no other means can the people get
square deal. The Gooding commits
sion bill ought to pass, and it ought to
bear the name Of Governor Gooding in
honor of public servant who was hon
est enough to demand legislation Of
interest to the people, though that
action cost him his political head.
