Indians are Arrested for
Introducing Liquor.

Deputy U. s.. Marshal McVeigh
arrived last night from Mobridge
with two Indians named Charles
Lookback and George Lookback,
respectively. He brought them
here to be locked up in the Brown
country jail until the next term Of
court, when they will appear TO
the charge of introducing liquor
OH the Standing Rock reservation.
The Indians are from the neighbor-
hood of Wakpala and were taken
before the U. S. Commissioner at
Mobridge for their preliminary
hearing, where they were bound

A GOOD RACE TRACK.
Why not have one here?
Horses Numerous.

Now that the ball team is organ
izing why not sec what can be
done in the way of a race meet
and enclose a sufficient amount of
ground to allow for good race
track, ball ground, etc. 1t might
not come amiss to suggest that the
time will come after little when
Walworth county will want a fair.
1t would be an excellent thing, we
think, to include this also in the
move.
We have several fast horses and
the owners will be compelled to go
away from home for training.
Why not organize a stock com
pany, get hold of a suitable tract
of land and make Mobridge the at
traction in county fair and race
track meets as well as base ball
All could go together very nicely
in the same grounds and very like
ly good grounds could be procured
on lease.
The expenditure OF from five to
ten thousand dollars in this way
would undoubtedly prove a good
investment and be great help to
the town.

enjoy under the Republic. 1t is not sur
prising that corruption exists in high
places. 1t is rather surprising though
that we have gotten along as well as
we have The immense resources
and the opportunities for acquiring
fame, wealth and power in the bust
ness world has attracted many of our
greatest men, especially those men
who would trample down the people.
Had Rockefeller devoted himself to
politics with the same shrewdness,
assiduity, and determination, that he
has to business, he might today occu-
Ply the same position in politics as he
does in the business world. He has
a wonderful control over men; an inn
mense power of concentration; and an
almost irresistible ability to beat
down opposition. He is not overly
conscientious or scrupulous. 1t has
been nature not intelligence or pa
triotism that has thus far maintained
the Republic. The awakening of the
people is the prime essential for the
and perpetuity of
our government. Direct primaries are
a snare and a delusion. Wisconsin
teaches Idaho another lesson.

CRAFTS STAND.

The Idaho Brewers association is
conducting a so-called campaign of
education in Idaho. The organization
has imported Mr.. Phil A. Grau, who is
delivering lectures, giving out news
paper interviews, and generally max
ing himself useful in the interests of
the liquor traffic Mr.. Grau takes the
view that precinct option, not county
option, is what the people really need
and want. OF course precinct option
would be the next best thing after a
wide open state. By the concentra-
ton of their strength in one precinct
of town that precinct would prob
ably remain wet. The people of Ida
no really want state prohibition and
accepted county local option as a
stepping stone. 1t is fully understood
that the anti-saloon people will keep
up the fight until Idaho is finally dry
in every respect. Precinct local option
is farce wherever tried.
Mr.. Grau presents the worn-out ar
gument that the prohibition of the
sale of alcoholic liquors increases
the consumption of them. If this be
true why are the wholesale dealers,
the distillers and brewers so much op-
posed to such laws: Mr.. Grau will
find the people of Idaho hard to con-
vince. They have studied the ques-
ton and will not be hoodwinked by
such sophistry.

COLLEGE OF IDAHO.

Readers OF The Tribune will be
gratified to learn that the endowment
fund for the College of Idaho has been
raised. Word from Dr. Boone is to
the effect that Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
donated $25,O00.00 provided certain
conditions are complied with. This
makes the fund pledged something
over $85,0O000. The Tribune con-
graduates Caldwell and southern Ida
no upon the success of this enter
prise. Idaho has most excellent
state university, but it is almost in
accessible to the people of southern
Idaho. The establishment OF a first
class institution of education in this
part of the state will give hundreds
of Young men and women an oppor-
tunity to secure a college education,
who otherwise would be denied this
boon DR.. Boone has labored faith
fully and ceaselessly to build up such
an institution in Idaho. 1t is crafty
ing to all to know that while he is
yet in the prime of his life his efforts
are to be crowned with success.
Many times during the past eighteen
years things were very discouraging.
All obstacles were overcome in time;
and in a few years the College of Ida
no will rank among the strongest and
best schools in the west. The people
who so faithfully stood by DR.. Boone
are also to be congratulated and
In fact congratulations
are due everyone in southern Idaho.

ANOTHER LESSON,

People favorable to the direct pri-
mary idea take great pleasure in
pointing to the fact that under the old
system it cost great amount of mon
ey in some cases to secure a United
States senatorship. There is no ques-
ton but that men like Senator Clark
of Montana, Ankeny of Washington,
Guggenheimer of Colorado, and Platt
of New York, spent huge sums in Sc
curing the position. But this also hap
pens under the direct primary sys-
TEN. 1t has been openly charged that
Senator Bourne of Oregon spent $780,
100000; it is now charged that Senator
Stephenson of Wisconsin, purchased
the primary nomination for $1O6, 900.
Wisconsin is the home of La Toilette,
of the direct primary and of all kinds
of half-baked reforms. Yet in that
state, under a direct primary law,
corruption is openly charged. The
only difference in the two systems in
this respect is that the candidate must
debauch a great number rather than
a few legislators. The virtue is hard
to find in such a law. Legislation
cannot correct evils OF this kind.
When the American people awake to
a realization of their duties and obli-
cations as American citizens, then,
and not till then, will we have clean
politics, and honest politicians. I'm
der the present system In Idaho, the
people have all the power they need
to absolutely control everything. That
they do not use that power is their
fault, not that of the law. The Amer
lean people should be under a tyran-
lcal dictator for a few years every
half century, in order that they might
learn to appreciate the blessings they

LOCAL OPTION.

The bill which has passed the house
is one of the most stringent measures
ever attempted in this line of legisla-
ton. The law provides that upon the
petition of 20 per cent of the legally
qualified voters of county, commits
sioners shall with 10 days call a spe-
cial election to decide upon the
question whether or not the sale of al
coholic liquors shall be prohibited
within the county. If a majority of
the voters be in favor of prohibition,
all licenses shall become null and
void after six months. The act pro-
vides: Alcoholic liquors shall never
be sold in prohibition district as med
icine, except in cases of actual sick
ness, upon written prescription Of a
duly licensed physician of this state,
and such prescription shall contain
the name and quantity of liquor pres
cribed, the name of the person for
whom it was prescribed, the day upon
which the prescription was written
and the direction for the use of the
liquor so prescribed"
1t further provides that no person
shall sell more than once on such
prescription. If anyone suspects that
there is liquor of any kind being sold
he can swear out a warrant and any
constable or sheriff is justified in
forcing entrance to any premises If
denied admittance. 1t is also a
crime to solicit orders for liquors in
prohibition territory. The penalty for
disobeying the law is fine of not less
than $500 nor more than $4,000, or
Imprisonment in the county Jail for
not less than five days nor more than
one year or both fine and imprison-
ment If the law stands and is en-
forced 1t will certainly do away with
the sale or disposition in any manner
Of alcaholic liquors. Six months are
given saloon men to close up their
business houses.
1t is expected that a fight will be
made in the senate against the meas
ure, The bill will certainly meet
with the approval of the most siren
uous local optionist. People are anx-
iously awaiting it's fate in the state
senate.
