Gov. vessey a Winner

Governor Vessey is going to be tn.
umphantly renominated at the phi
mary election in June and the indi-
cations are that all the progressive
candidates will be . The people Of
south Dakota are progressive. They
are opposed to the return of corpora

name Of stalwartism, or any other
nsme-in the state, as they are OPP
posed to the reactionary domination
J. Cannonism and A%ldrichism in the
congress Of the United States. T
carried for progressive principles, On
Performs promising advanced and pro-
grcssive legislation and administration,
and every platform pledge has been
lived up to. The people Of this state
are not going to be induced to return
to the old days Of the corrupt influence
Of the railroad pass, the corporation
controlled machine and the legislative
lobby, by specious pleading of false
and misleading issues. They know the

mary election law; an effective anti.
lobby law; an anti-pass law that has

from contributing campaign funds;
an anti-discrimination law; an anti
trust law; a law requiring the state
treasurer to account for interest on
state funds; a law providing for the
valuation of all railroad property
in the state, to be used as
future basis for making freight and
passenger rates; laws for the TO

Local Taxes Not state Taxes

An attempt is made to obscure che
issue by vaguely charging extrava-
gance in appropriations, and talking
loosely about high taxes. Especially
in localities where local taxes arc
high they say: Look at your tax re-
ceipts. They seem not to know that
the voter not only looks at his tax re-
ceipt but has the sense ard judg-
ment to analyse it as well, and $50

poses, and SO learn that his state tax 10

priation Of 1905 for the attorney gen.
erals office. Mr.. Byrne remembers
that the increase in the 1908 appro.
priation was made to enable the at.
torney general to meet the expense Of
actions against stalwarts for the en-.
forcement of the two-cent passenger
rate law, for the defense Of INDUCTION
proceedings and the prosecution OF
corporations that refused to obey the
law reducing express charges, This
disposes of Mr.. Elrod's specifications.
1t was further shown that there has
been no fractional division in the legis-
lsture on appropriations, stalwarts
and progressives voting with unani-
nifty for the appropriations reported
form committees composed Of stall
warts and progressives. Referring to
the legislature of 1909, MI. Byrne saids
In each house there was q determin-
ed effort to raise the amounts of sew
cral different items in the general bill,
over what was recommended by the
committees, in the total amount. In
the senate at least, it happens that
proportionately more stalwarts than
progressives advocated such increase
in opposition to the committee on ap-
preparations, though there was no con.
scious division along such political
lines, out it happened 50.

A TRICK TO DECEIVE
The Stalwarts Falsified Application Of
Figures in Regard to State
Expenses is Proving a
Boomerang


They charge the pregressives with
using $4,000 a day more in expenses
than under the Elrod administration,
hen in fact they are less per capita
according to business done.
Appropriations for imperatively
needed state buildings can not be put
off nor can they be considered current
expenses; but are permanent state i'm
p~rovements. Insane people can not
be turned loose on the prairies; nor is
it right to cripple the state schools for
economy's sake. The buildings had to
be provided, the cost of which makes
the temporary increase in the floating
debt.
That the state expenses are $4,000
per day more than under the Elrod
administration is an absolute false.
mood.
When stalwart figures are given you
examine them carefully to see if they
bear the state auditors official certi
~ticate; if not, they may we'll be sus-
picioned of Justification to fit their ar
gument. Send for the state auditor 8
official report at Pierre, do not take
the ~extravagant statements of political
opponents.
Vessey Kept State Within It's Income
Senator r. M. Byrne was chairman
of the appropriations committee OF
Inc last state senate and is in a po-
sition to answer better than any other
person the charges of extravaganza
which enemies of Governor Wesley
are trying to lodge against his ad-
ministration.
In The American yesterday he gave
an interview which completely shows
the Inconsistency of these charges by
the stalwarts. Not only were the
stalwart members of both branches
in entire accord with every financial
measure and voting for them, but
they wanted to vote ven more money
tor state purposes.
This the progressive representation
refused to permit. Instead Governor
Vessey insisted and the legislative
members conceded that the %appropria-
ton for expenditures should be rigid
ly held within the income Of the state.
Under Governor Wesley the state
has been living within its income and
at the same time has been paying off
some of the debts inherited from the
past.

Does Elrod oppose Lower Rates

Does Elrod Oppose Lower Rates
Does he think the people of this
state can be induced to abandon the
plan of railroad rate legislation be-
cause $4,000 has been appropriated
to lay the necessary foundationf Evil
IDENTIFY he does, as. by his own state
ment, the regular appropriation, for
the years he names, is substantially
the same, and this $4,000 Is the added
amount he complains Of.
Again he says: "The appropriation
or the attorney generals office for
1905 was $11 900; in 1908 it was $685.
800, an increase of $4,000" Let W
see. By "1eos" he evidently means
the appropriation made in 1909 for
the years 1909 and 1910. This in
cludes a special fund of $4,000 or 20
much thereof as may be necessary,
for the expense of prosecution of suits
brought by the state to enforce the
two-cent passenger rate law and In
defending injunction suits brought in
the United States court to enjoin the
enforcement of said law; also amount
for special assistants for the railroad
commissioner in this and similar work.
Here, again, the objection is to that
part of the appropriation providing
money for carrying on the work of val
uation of railroad property, the en-
forcement of the two cent fare Law
and the law requiring q reduction Of
express rates, as the appropriations
tor the years named are nearly the
same after taking out the special
amounts for these purposes.
