The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1910-03-17
BURKE's

Congressman Burke, in his an
nouncement Of his candidacy for re-
election. refuses to commit himself
upon the speakership. He states that
he would abide by the decision Of the
caucus OF republican members as to
who should occupy the speakers
chair. He does not say for whom he
would vote in the caucus.
Mr.. Burke has been made chairman
Of the Indian affairs committee OF
the House, an important post. In that
capacity. his services have been Of q
value to South Dakota that could not
have been given II he had not held
that position. He could not have OBJ
tanned that appointment except from
Speaker Cannon. Reasoning thus.
some Of Mr.. Burke's constituents will
approve his course and earnestly sup
port him for denomination and re-
election.
On the other hand, there are those
in South Dakota-in considerable
number, we believe-who believe that
the most important issue before the
country today is the defeat of Cannon
for reelection and a reform of the
House rules to end the speakers con-
troll Of the House. All such will use
Congressman Burke's W words
against him.
Congressman Burke's colleague
went farther and declared specifically
he would not again vote for Cannon.
The Republican, at the time Of Mar
tins announcement, expressed its
own view of the matter, which is that
Congressman Martin aligned himself
with the sentiment Of his constituents
on the Cannon issue.
However, it must be said that re-
|spect Is due Mr.. Burke for his cour-
age in opening his candidacy to at
tack. II he does believe that the cam
|paign against Cannon is unwarranted
he is at least not hypocritical about
It. II a majority Of the republicans
|of South Dakota believe that he is
right and that Cannonism is but a
DOGGY, or 1t a majority believe that
Mr.. Burke possesses qualities as a
public servant that outweigh his sup
port of Cannon, he should be return
ed. In other words, let the people
rule. This does not mean to let some
action rule.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1910-03-17

tude can be explained only as one of
jealousy. Sioux City wants to take
business from Chicago and Mime
apolis, not from Sioux Falls, for the
business of Sioux Falls is not suffi-
cient to arouse the covetousness Of
Sioux City.
Though realizing, as said before,
that both cities are acting selishly,
South Dakota shippers should have
no hesitancy in deciding that sell
ishness on their own part suggests
they should applaud the efforts of
Sioux City.
It is the natural right of the ship-
per-though often not obtaiaed-to
co business at the nearest market.
This paper has commented before
upon the artificial business system
built up by railroad rates. There can
be no good reason why South Dakota
should ship it's raw material to Chi
cago or the east to be manufactured
and then returned to South Dakota
for consumption. Such a practice is
anything but economy; it means tn,
levying of a tax of millions of dollars
paid unnecessarily by the people Of
The. United States for the benefit of
the railroads every year. For that
matter, there is no good reason why
the Mitchell territory should send
live stock even SO far as Sioux City to.
be butchered and sent back for con-
sumption.
Something is radically wrong when
the state Of South Dakota is engaged
almost entirely in the production Of
raw material and yet Is practically
without manufactures. The manufac-
turing industry was first established
In the east and the low through rates
Of railroads concerned only with their
earnings. have served to keep it there.
South Dakota has the right to do
business with itself.

GOES TO WASHINGTON y
TO MAKE INVESTIGATION
Report That Commission Would be
Held Up Pending inquiry into
. Grand Jury Affair Takes Newly Ap'
pointed officer to capitaI--No.lfies
Family Of Result

Information was received here yes
terday morning from Washington
that Fred Read, the newly appointed
collector of customs for this port, has
received his commission from the
treasury department. Mr. Read was
in Washington yesterday and no
statement could be had from him, but
members of his family confirmed the
report that the commits sion had been
delivered to him by the secretary OF
the treasury.
Mr.. Read Is expected to return
here this morning. At this time ii
Is not known when he will take over
the Office of collector, succeeding Cap
tain J. Z. 3. Stuart. who has been
the collector for FIVE years. Some
OF Mr.. Reads friends said yesterday
that they expected him to begin his
term of Office today. while others ex-
pressed the belief that he would wait
until Thursday, December L. so that
the employees of the custom house
will be saved the trouble of making
up two sets of reports for this month
-one at the expiration OF the term
of Captain Stuart and the other at
the end of the month.
No investigation Made.
The delivery of the commission to
Mr.. Read is taken here to mean that
the treasury department will take no
action upon the Information that the
newly named collector was investigat-
ed by the grand jury in the United
States District Court at Norfolk ten
days ago for an alleged attempt to
influence members OF the grand jury
on behalf of Harry Morewitz. mer-
chant of this city, who was charged
with buying Struggled goods.
Report had II that this matter was
reported to the treasury department
last week by Collector Stuart and
that, representative of the treasury
department probably would be sent
here to make an Investigation. So
far as can be learned no such repro
sentative visited this city and the be-
lief now is that the treasury depart
ment took no action whatever in the
matter.
Bond Executed Week Ago.
Mr.. Read went to Washington last
week 10 see about the matter. He
executed bondSin the sum OF $4,000
with the treasury department week
ago last Saturday and had expected
that he would receive his commiss ion
early last week. Subsequently II was
said that the happenings in the Fed
eral court at Norfolk had been report
ed TO the treasury department and
Mr.. Read decided to go to Washing
ton
MANY of Mr.. Reads friends had
feared ti,At the result would be the
holding up OF the commits Ion OF the
new collector for few weeks at least
and the news that he had received
the commission was received by them
with rejoicing

Morgan County Water Rights.

Denver-Before Judge Whitford,
of the District Court on Dec. 3, will
commence a battle royal for the pos
session of water rights, valued at hun
dreds of thousands of dollars. Priori-
ties along the Platte river will wage a
contest that will call into the case
the best legal talent in Colorado, as
far as irrigation law is concerned.
Adams, Weld, Morgan and other east
ern counties are vitally interested in
the final outcome of the litigation, be-
fore Judge Whitford, who continued
the case until Dec. 5. The litigation
grows out of an effort to transfer wa
ter from the Thomas, Highland and
Hodgins bitches in Morgan county, to
purchasers who have recently acquired
arid lands under those bitches, or
which are susceptible of cultivation by
means of water through those bitches.
