WHEN THE CITY
SHOULD ADVERTISE

In calling the attention OF the board
to the law which requires that resolu-
tons which involve an appropriation
of over 5000 to be advertised in the
newspapers for certain stated times,
Mayor Fern last night said he had de-
layed countersigning certain authorize
lions made at the last meeting because
of this law. He said, in part:
While it is highly desirable that
the advertising expenses of the City
and County should be kept down to a
minimum. | do not think that so plain
a provision of the Municipal Act as is
contained IN Section II can be neg
lected; and by careful wording of reso-
buttons thus appropriating money, [
believe they can be kept down to such
q length as will not entail large ex-
penditures for advertisement.
cit is true that same resolutions.
similar in form to these TO which /
call your attention have been passed
by your board and acted on without
having been advertised. In some cases,
however, though in form making an
appropriation, they were passed, not
with the intention of making an APP
preparation, but of enabling depart
ments having unusual expenses during
the early period of City and County
government, to pay them by antieipat-
ing the monthly allowance already APP
propriated for their use. And while
at the time it did not seem to me that
the form of the resolution was the
best way to express that intention
there were other and more important
questions at issue at that time, and
the question of form was not raised.
Referred to the County Attorney.

Philip weekly review. [volume] (Philip, Stanley County, S.D.) 1907-1912, 1909-12-23

An actor who never earned any
other plaudit than a soft tomato,
will give instructions in handling
the worlds news. Any lady who
knows enough to get off q street
car backward, has positive opinions
on the press. Even society person
who never paid anything but call
or made anything but visit, or
did anything but tailor, knows
how stupid those men are who
write "stories," edit copy" wres-
tied with heads" that won't fit and
get the paper out on time. One
reason for the universally of per-
fection in this trade, among those
who do not work at it, is that
everybody has been employed on
it. 1t is most unusual thing to
meet a man who, when the occasion
seems ripe, will not say: Il us' d
to be q newspaper man myself. +"
Every time a man works his coun-
try editor for puff on the strength
of big pumpkin, he graduates in
journalism. When he writes q
piece" for the Squash County
Clarion about "a most enjoyable
entertainment" he completes his
post graduate course in newspaper
work, and when he writes COM
munication on both sides of the
paper to the editor, he becomes a
thirty-third degree member of the
Tribe of Scribe. That so many men
have abandoned literature for the
law, medicine and other easy walks
of life, simply shows that many
men would rather fail in one thing
than another.

2-CENT RATE HEARING
Important Case to Come Up Before
Special Master in Chicago

The hearing of the South Dako-
ia rate case will take place in Chi
cago Dec. %, before Special Mas
ter j. H. Gates of Sioux Falls.
The case is brought into court
with the Chicago & Northwestern
road named but all the lines in the
state are involved for the outcome
will have the same effect on the
others. 1t will be remembered that
the legislature of 1908 passed a law
making the passenger rate in South
Dakota two cents per mile, to re-
place the rate of three cents. The
Chicago & Northwestern and the
other lines in the state brought
suits in the federal court of this
state to restrain and enjoin the
p acing in effect the two cent rate,
alleging that the Law amounted to
confscation of the property of the
railroads, without just compensa-
ton and there foe uI co lstitl i)nal.
A tempol ary restraining order
was made Withholding the two cent
rate until the final determination
of the suit.

Good Roads

That a good road to town adds
to the desirability of a farm as a
residence, has never been ques-
toned, but that a good road actual
ly adds to the money value of the
farm seems to be a new idea in the
minds of q good many. Land buy
ers look carefully to the accessible
ity to market before purchasing,
and the man who wishes to sell a
farm has got to show a good rold
to town or he will have = hard
time trying to dispose of his land.
A hundred dollars put into a mud
hole may easily add several dollars
per acre not only to the farm ada
cent but to every piece of land on
the further side of it. One mudhole
may reduce the maximum load from
sixty to forty bushels. If a man has
5000 bushels to haul, this will
mean dividing it into 100 instead
Of 60 loads. If he hauls two loads
q day, the loss amounts to twenty
days time, or, at an average value
Of three dollars per day, to sixty
dollars, because of that mudholc. 1t
does not require an elaborate sys-
tenn of Mathematics to demonstrate
that money put into good roads is
money we'll invested, even though
it may raise the road tax levy

A girl begins to hang up the

she stops hanging up her stocking.
A pessimist is a fellow who
wouldn't hang up his stocking for
fear old Santa Claus might swipe
it.
Christmas cigars are not always
puffed up with pride.
There's many a slip twixt the
Miss and the misletOe.
Don't make it too strong; many
a man has been knocked out by
one good stiff punch.
Ask a truthful woman what she
enjoys most about Christmas, and
she will tell you the b., gain sales
afterward.
To sing a rhyme of Christmas
time THAT line is but the first of
it), here's hoping yor may not feel
blue because you got the worst OF
it.
When a child writes a letter to
thank Santa Claus, it should be
cherished like a rare plant. That
kid isn't long for this world.
No Christmas present is so USE
less that you can't pass it on to
someone else next year.

samples for season of 1911 will be
ready about January 18th.
We would have been leased to
handle the business of Philip for
this season, and hope we can be
favored with a greater share next
year than we have been accorded
heretofore. That is a branch of the
business we intend to keep up.
In this connection, the following
little sermonette, clipped from an
exchange, is right to the point:
I'VE owe it to the community in
which we live to do everything
that we can, in every way possible,
that will be to it's advantage. Our
neighbours prosperity means a deal
more to US than that of someone
who lives elsewhere. We should
hear this in mind when buying
goods. We can afford to pay our
home man fair price for his work
rather than send our money away,
knowing as we dpt aat every dol
lar our fellow citizen makes will
help in sustaining our schools and
public institutions and churches.
1t pays richly to patronize home
industry"
