iSiiSt Sc' -''ii'
Review Special:-The past week
has been one of activity i'm legislative
halls. We are awakening to the fact
that the harvest is great and the
labOrerS are few-not reallJ so few,
either, but few as to the mountain
of bills we have yet to climb, and the
short time left for climbing: but
there's one consolation left to our
constituents, and that is that the
laws We don't get enacted cannot do
anyone any harm, and that is more
than can promise for the ones We
will enact.
Of the bills that are now laws,
having passed all the vicissitude> of
motions, counter motions, amend
ments and recOnsideratiOns of both
houses, cannot say that | think
there are many that will cause the
heart of a citizen of this great
commonwealth to swell with pride
that is, to the extent of needing a
larger sized coat to fit him. There
are some of them that | think call
for two or three sizes smaller, and
am positive before we get through
that he can use child's size pocket
book.
The first incident relative to the
2-cent railroad fare was the injunc
tion by the railroads and an appro-
priation of 81 900 by the legislation
to fight it. What the deficiency ap-
preparation to finish the fight will be
deponent sayeth not. 1fthere isany
attention paid to it and an attempt
is made to force the l5OO-candle power
electric headlight law, it will mean a
few more thousand out of the state
treasury before the bright CLEANS will
go glimmering across the rolling
prairies and gumbo hills of the sun
shine state.
The anti-treat bill is being banded
back and forth between the two
houses, until it begins to look like a
football and everybody ready to take
kick at it. We fixed it up, passed
it and sent it to the senate for their
approval; they approved it with GER
tain amendments that gave the bill
a lop-eared appearance to Us; so we
arose in our majesty and said, lit
shall not be thusly but for other
wise" and created a board of arbi-
tration to meet with a like board
from the higher house on the lower
floor to adjust matters. AS it came
back to us We might escape treating
to a glass-but mugs, cans, bottles

Idread the coming of the spring,
when flowers bloom and robins
sing, and lambkins gambol on the
lea-the winters good enough for
me. hate to think of planting
seeds and digging dirt and pulling
weeds and getting up at break of
dawn to chase the cattle off the
lawn. OF course, the birds are
mighty sweet and budding trees
cannot be beat and growing things
are nice enough and verbal breezes
are the stuff; but | have always
found it true that there's so dog
goned much to do q fellow has no
time to note the charming things

Jag specialists who have been
trying to fit themselves for admit
tance to the State Liquid Joy as
ylum may as well sign the pledge
and go to work. There will be
no such institution. The legisla-
ture has decided that there are
too many sober ways of spending
money to devote any of it to those
who are too big fools to take care
of their own. The professional
drunks will have to sleep off their
headaches in the old way, unaided
by a jag cure. Pills and pillows
will not be furnished them by
the people of South Dakota; they
will have to use the accustomed
alley ways and box cars. 1t is a
hard blow to the drunks, but the
money will 90 to better use. -

General Mark w. Sheafe, of

General Mark w. Sheafe, of
Watertown, spoke of the proposed
law, which is before the present
Legislature, to prohibit drinking
on trains, as follows: Il under
stand that a member of the legis-
lature, having compassion for the
few remaining democrats, proposed
an amendment eXempting the dem
ocrats from the operation of the
bill. 1t is proposed that a man
can't even take a swig from his
own bottle while riding ON a rail
way train. Now, suppose for
instance, that when crossing that
wide range country west of the
Missouri river rattlesnake should
jump into the coach-what's a
fellow to do! Sit there, | pre-
sumo, like cork in a bottle, and
let his young life ebb away! It's
simply monstrous."

FROM THE CENTER OF THINGS
Stanley's Representative Tells of Momentous
Week in the States Law Factory

and jugs were still on the free list, ,
therefore we made back pass and
kicked it into the senate territory,
where it's now downed on the
5-yard line, with the referees sparring
for wind, and the what will you
have, boys" still in good form.
The cigarette smoker got a stom-
ache punch below the belt to-day in
the house and if the dear, kind SEN
ate will only concur, the users of the
cOttin-nail will have to 60 out for the
want of cOmbustiles or ship in the
firing materials from outside the
state, as no manufacturer may man
ufacture or dealers may deal in the
accursed thing in this state.
The principle occupation of the
legislators nOw-when not legislating
is trying to get their pet bills out OF
the committee and before the house.
AS there are but eleven more work
ing days and something over five
hundred bills yet to be considered, we
all realize that if our bills get
hearing, we will have to get busy
That there can be an improvement
on the present plan Of handling legis-
lative matters one can not doubt af-
ter attending our session; but that
there will be any such improvement
is very doubtful. wouldn't favor a
plan 10y which more laws could be
enacted, but would favor one that
would restrict the number Of bills We
are forced to consider. That valuable
time should be expended on non-es-
sentiaI, meaningless bills at the eX-
pense of broad and wise measures
that mean much in the upbuilding of
our state, is undoubt edly a misap-
preparation of legislative brains (ad-
nit ting, for arguments sake, that
there is such a thing as legislative
brains.) None will deny that
little of the same business acumen
that has builded up the success of
so many of our citizens, if applied 10
our legislative bodies, would prove
beneficial. There is no doubt that
many very essential and beneficial
measures will De among tie also-ran
class at the linish left there because
our time was taken up protecting
birds nests, muskrats, and deciding
the speed Of onr benzine wagons, etc,
etc. But that thus it has ever been
and ever will be is no doubt a part
of the legislative matinees of the
future as well as the past.

If, when the present legislature
finishes it's labors, there is any
evil left in the state that has not
been regulated, it has been a clear
oversight. The house, during the
session, has been presented with
397 bills by it's members, the SEN
ate is laboring to dispose of 311,
and thirty -four joint resolutions
have appeared. On the last day
for introduction of bills, last Mon
day, ia measures were presented.

We are ready to agree with a
Sioux City paper in its comment
on the outcome of a case wherein
the defendent was charged with a
crime against his 13-year-old Sis
ter-in-law. The jury disagreed,
eleven for conviction and one for
acquittal. There should be law
that would prevent similar stub
bornness on the part of eleven,
and make it mandatory that they
agree with the views of the one
wise man.

Congress made an appropriation
for the relief of the earthquake
sufferers in Sicily; socialists look
upon it as a precedent that would
enable the lawmakers to make an
appropriation for the unemployed
of this country, but they don't
mention the incentive it would
give for mendacity.

mad comparatively no trouble with it
ana one OF the owners in speaking Of It

trial and that the trials that the boat
had already undergone proved conclu
slVely that so far as speed and
draught were concerned that the boat
would do better than the specifica-
lions called for.

that with twenty-eight passengers
it only drew twelve inches. A good
