In commenting upon the defeat of
Congressman Tawuey, of the First
congressional district of Minnesota,
the Minneapolis Journal says:
Why? There are but six letters in
the answer; they spell Cannon. "
Those very qualities of loyalty and
fidelity that made him strong have
now proved Mr.. Tawneys undoing. If
he had been willing to betray the man
who had put him at the head of the
Appropriations Committee; if he had
even been willing to play fast and
loose as some other Congressman have
done, to be regular in Washington
and an Insurgent at home, he might
have returned to Congress.
The true explanation is not found
in the name Cannon" bnt rather in
the words, "the man who put him at
the head of the appropriations com
mittee." 1t is the abuse of this power
possessed by the speaker of the house
that has built up the system which
the people know by the name oil
"Connonism Cannon put Tawney
at the head of the appropriations
committee, and would not betray'
the man who gave him the position
There is the whole thing in a nutshell;
upou that one idea the whole obnoxious
system has been built. Cannon APP.
pointed men 10 important positions
in the house who looked upon
loyalty" to the speaker as their
greatest duty, and through that was
able to dictate legislation. Congress,
men who recognized loyalty" to the
speaker forgot their duty to their
constituents, they allowed that
"loyalty' to supplant their duty to
the people. Who is Cannon, that men
elected to represent and legislate for
100000 people should recognize a
'loyalty" to him, or any other man Oh
collection of individuals? Congress
man Tawney is an able man, but that
one idea OF "loy ,lty" to single in
dividuai made him not only unit as a

The Minnehaha County Bar Associ
alton has passed resolutions in which
it expresses the opinion that George
w. Egan is not worthy of reinstate-
ment as a practiciug attorney, and
has forwarded the resolutions to the
clerk of the supreme court. The
association may be right in its con
clusions, bu; the striking thing about
it is the fact that the association is at
tempting to prejudice the court in a
matter that is now before that body.
If the association has the right to ap-
pear against Egan it would seem that
the proper thing to do would be to
appear and prosecute their side Of the
case in the usual way. In express 'ng
its opinion to the court the associa.
tion does not stand in any different
light from that of private individual
who might have an opinion toezpress.

j. W. Tackaberry expects to move
his family about October 10th to the
new home near Richmond, Va. where
be thinks he will like the climate
and thinks the opportunities for
making money are good. Advant
ages for educating his children could
not be better than those afforded in
that section.
AT Lake Preston, at the Farmers
Feed Barn, Saturday, October Sth,
Thos. Caulfeld will offer at auction
sale 30 head of horses, some eligible
to register, all others high grade
Standard stock. The bunch is com.
posed mostly of mares, ranging from
"suckers" to eleven years old, some
weighing as high as | 300 pounds. 1t
is nice clean lot of animals, and it is
good opportunity to secure fine
driving horses.
Louis and Ed Sterr were called
to Dickinson, n. D, the latter part
of last week by the serious illness of
their brother, Aliois. About year
ago he had an operation performed,
and never fully recovered. A few
days ago he was in an automobile
accident which brought on the old
trouble and his condition was very
serious for time. But change for
the better occurred soon after Louis
and Ed got there and physicians now
hope for complete recovery.
"A short time ago some of the Lake
Preston people got busy and rid their
town of bicycle riding on the walks.
Four different persons paid fines and
then it began to soak into those who
had been doing the trick that might
be expensive And to make it expen-
sive seems to be about the only way
to stop the nuisance, those who prac
tice riding on the walks do not seem
10 care for the rights OF others upon
which they infringe. There are some
here in De Smet who insist upon rid
ing on the walks to the inconvenience
of the public. We merely mention
the ordinance against this practice
and the manner of dealing with
offenders at Lake Preston as a sug-
gestion as to how the nuisance can be
abated.
Miss Beatrix Hall, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. B. Hall, early resi-
dents of De Smet, for the past year
reporter for the county court, yester-
day was appointed reporter for Judge
Harry p Gamble of the district court,
and will assume her new duties on
Monday at Boulder. She succeeds
former Miss Frances Davy, who was
married last spring Miss Hall has
been, during her incumbency of the
county court position, one of the most
popular persons in the court house
and her departure for Boulder is very
much regrett' d by many; all, however,
join in congratulaling her on her new
appointment, says the Evening
Courier published at Ft. Collins,
Colorado Miss Beatrix is well known
to De Smet people as she has visited
at the home of her aunt, Mrs. d. W.
Wllmarth. of this city, several times
in late year,.

representative of the people, but
positively dangerous to the welfare Of
this great nation. The people are
beginning to realize the iniquity of
the system that has grown during
their period of indifference and fancied
security. That is the reason Tawney
was defeated in the First district in
Minnesota, and that is the reason
others OF his kind are falling all over
the country.

Safe Statement,

A scientist declares that in 10000
years summer and winter on this
globe will have changed places. OF
course, he doesn't know anything
about it, but there would be manifest
difficulty in proving him wrong.

ROOSEVELT won in the state of New
York and was made temporary chair
man. The progressives adopted the
platform and nominated the state
ticket. Those who hoped for Roose-
velt's defeat, and freely predicted it,
were once more disappointed. Pro-
gressive principles are bound to win,
as we have said for several years.

citizenship means that the collectiv.
ity Is made up Of men and women.
q large majority Of whom are will
ing TO do their duty. This duty
consists not alone In observing that
relationship TO other individuals
that ages Of experience and thou
sands Of years OF lawmaking have
demonstrated to be wisest and best.
but also that relationship to the
COLLECTIVELY that makes for the gen
eral good. Good citizenship Is
made up Of men and women who
are willing to give Of their time
and money for the public good.
Good citizenship is made up Of
men and women who do not wait
for officers to act. but when they
know Of an infraction Of the law,
will on their own part, start pro-
ceeding to see that it is properly
observed. Good citizenship takes
a pride in schools. churches, streets.
