The proposition to hold a non

ception in honor of the Minnesota
congressman who voted against the
tariff bill received a severe jolt the
other day when Congressman Tawney
suggested that it might be wise tC

the bill had previously assured the
president of their vote for the bill il
needed Tawney was the only re.
publican from Minnesota who voted
for the bill and the reception fol-
those who voted against the bill was
direct slap at Tawney, and arebuke
that was not deserved. Tawney led
the fight for free lumber, and made d
good fight, too, but, being chairman
of the appropriations committee, and
thus "A part of the house organiza
tion it was necessary for him TO make
his fight during the course of the
construction of the tariff schedule
ana then stand by the bill as approx

not in a like position and could take
advantage of the situation to make a
grand stand play for home consump-
tion, Tawney's mild and innocent
suggestion was made in self defense
but there appears to have been enough
fact back of it to make it doubtful if
the proposed reception will ever be
held.

SENATOR CRAWFORD and Congress.
man Burke have both given out inter
views regarding the tariff bill recently
enacted. The two interviews read
very much alike, Notwithstanding the
two men were elected by different
factions. If the factional fight is to
kept up in this state it will have to be
along other lines than the tariff records
of these men. Both voted for the
same bill on final passage and both
worked for the selfish interests of
the state. One cannot consistently
support Crawford's record and oppose
Burke's. Neither is Burke entitled
to credit and Crawford to criticism
by the other faction. SO far as tariff
records are concerned, the matter is a
"draw."

of the several other buildings with
which the grounds are so we'll equip
ped, is the impression of opulent and
unstinted arrangement secured. The
lighter and pleasurable phases of
life are also well observed and when
one looks at what has been done, as
well as the purpose for which it is
done, one cannot but congratulate the
state of South Dakota on the unset
fishness and efficiency of the Fair
Board of 1909. 1t is no light and
easy matter to accomplish what has
been done for the fair of this year.
To handle properly the large amount
of money appropriated by the state,
and to make that expenditure SO fitly
answer the current demand and SO
generally meet the public approba-

brains than are usually found in such
officiary. Here undoubted under
standing of the issues at stake, the
capacity and intelligence of the co.
operating farmer, and the natural
resources of the state in which we
live, have been manifested to a sur
prising degree, and we may safely
look forward to future years and their
results to substantiate the theories of
those who have so ably provided for
the display of what has been already
done in South Dakota.
Whose has the interest and welfare
of the state at heart may here find

SOUTH DAKOTA STATE FAIR
Sept. 13, IA, is, Is, II, 18.


In exposition of the home and its
scientific development and consequent
happiness the South Dakota Annual
Fair is unequivocally aligned upon
the principle of perfect service. The
facilities provided in all departments
of the exposition, a reserve power to
meet and conquer all adverse condi-
tions and still present a complete
and perfect plan adapted to every
normal demand, have been fully dem
onstrated by the most capable board
ever identified with this enterprise.
To those who have never undertaken
similar work it is impossible to give
an idea of the exhaustive detail and
laborious effort involved in an under
taking of this character, To those
who have conserved and aided similar
work in the past it must be self-evi.
dent that absolute effort, together
with unusual ability, have distinguish
ed the Fair plans for 1909,
To interest the farmers of the state
and secure their invaluable aid in the
enterprise it. has been essential to
show fair, free, full and capable ar
rangement of the several features be-
longing to successful exhibit. In
matters such as these there is no con-
donement OF error or oversight; fail
ure is failure, pure and simple; where
ever the fault or misfortune lies it is
failure no less, and its results can
not be evaded or amended. Hence
the need of absolute competency back
ed by amplitude of power. In this
demand the present committee is es-
pecially fortunate; all their arrange
ments being equal to the utmost nor
NAL requirements. Not feature of
the true fair in missing; every de-
ulduQ vi tnC uOtlc, VIC idll eHC pcCl-
all crop or industry of the farm, has

vided for without stint or shortage.
No interest or division of labor
germane to the farmers life has
been overlooked. Himself, his wife,
his children and even the hired man
may all find information and enter
tainment in this splendidly equipped
exhibition. Not only in the admirable

S. d. n. NORTH has been removed
from the directorship of the census
because of graft. All sorts of supplies
are needed in that department. Bids
for punching machines were put in at
5000 each under Mr.. North when the
same thing is sold at $500. North
was the man who assisted in getting
a high rate on wool in the Dingley
tariff and afterwards received a hand
some sum from the wool people as a
mark of their appreciation of his
work in their interests. All that time
North was drawing pay from the
government as secretary of the senate
finance committee. The removal of
North is proof positive that all things
do not go wrong all the time.

A GAME of war was played by two
sections of the regular army in the
vicinity of Boston last week. The
affair was conducted as near as pos
sible along lines of actual warfare,
However, it is probable that if it had
been actual war the whole affair
would have been changed and the re.
suit might have been exactly the
opposite from what the umpires
will give as their decision. Some
times men don't stand UP under
actual fire as they do where no bullets
are used, and again history cites
numerous occasions where men crazy
from the excitement of battle have
stood terrible fire and have even en-
tered into voluntary charges which
have turned the tide of battle and
brought victory out of defeat,

1T is our belief that we are now en-.
tering upon a lower price era for
grain, and that it will be some time
before we see a price level equal to
that which has prevailed the past
two years. We have experienced an
abnormal condition. 1t has been a
great thing for the grain farmer, and
correspondingly hard upon the stock
farmer. But the latter, we believe,
is about to have his ''innings." The
high price of feed has induced many
TO go out of hog raising and out of
dairying. These industries are bound
to revive under an era of lower prices
for feed stuffs. Many a farmer will
have to stock up before he can get
into the stock raising game. 1t gen
orally takes two or three years for
such change to take place. Grain
raising is the easier, and farmers ex-
tensively engaged in it do not like to
