This law was enacted by the

who are left destitute by the
death of one of the family who
was killed while in the employ of
a company or concern, through
the ca relessness of some of the
employees or otherwise. A Wild

Contest for Clerk.

In the contest for clerk of the

Harper that he would not re-
ceive the support of the county
officers. However,, an examina-
ton of Mr.. Harper's petition
will show that all of the county

rectness is requested to refer

OF the poor farm. He has sever.
al children that are quite we'll to

half section of land just north of
the Grant county line. The
amount sued for is about $4,000
for his expenses of keeping for
the twenty years he has been up
on the county. The outcome will
be watched with much interest

proved, and further that the
city's credit was high with plen-
ty of money in the treasury.
Only a month ago the city paid
$4,000 of it's Indebtedness.
It, would also have shown that
there had been no useless Offices
created. but on the other hand
ECONOMY had been practiced and
that the people had received the
worth of their money.
And, again on the other hand
if. he had told the TRUE condi-
ton as to the state he would
have shown that when it was
turned over to the refOrmers it
was practically out of debt-but
that within the last three years
an Indebtedness of 5000, 600 had
been created while the taxes and
valuation of the property was
higher than ever before known
in the history of the state, and
that the refOrmers tell US that
there is no hope of relief in the
future.
1t, would have shown that use
less Offices had been created to
pay political debts and that it is
costing the state $4,000 more a
day to run the Vessey admins
tration than it did that of Elrod,
and that the Indebtedness alone
created would pay for twice the
number of new buildings erect
ed and public improvements
made by the Vessey administra-
ton.

railway taxation of the city, but
FAILS to state that during the
last year the company has in
creased it's trackage in this city

improvements amounting tOmOre
than $50, 600.
Under any administration there
would as a matter of course have
been more money received by the
city from that source.

Central Committeeman.

The little ring of insurgent
politicians that assumes to speak
for and control the destinies of
that faction in the county are ex-
erting every energy and using
every means in their power to
secure the election of "A. K. Craw-
ford as state committeeman
against Fred Cross. So far as
the record of Mr.. Crawford is
concerned as a citizen it is all
right, and the Herald without
any hesitancy says that he is a
good citizen. His politicalrecord
however is not so good, and from
the standpoint of party service
there is no good reason why he
should be selected as committee
man. He was deputy sheriff
for four years and was elected
sheriff twice as a stalwart, then
to the insurgents and
secured a legislative appointment
and has since been acting in that
faction. Now, Mr.. Crawford is
seeking further honors, and if
elected will without any doubt be
governed and controlled by a few
wouldbe politicians. On the 9TH
er hand Fred Cross stands out in
the open as an advocate of that
which is best for the republicans

AS a dodger, the News has TAX
en- a change in it's tactics, and to
distract the attention of the vot-
ers from the issue of extrava-
gance and excessive taxation in
the state administration attempts
to learnedly discuss the matter
of taxation in Milbank.
And, as might be expected,
it's figures are juggled and it's
statements garbled and mislead-
ing. It mixes up the city taxa
ton with that of the state
schools, and charges up the
whole increase in taxes to the
city. It gives the city taxation
in 1905 as SIC, $50. 10, and that
of 1909 at $21,411,9O when as a
matter of fact the levy for all
city purposes in 1906 was $500
not $16,640.1 9. The levy for
all city purposes in 1909 was
So, 3OO-and not $21,411.9O as
stated by the News. In the lat
ter levy was included the sum of
$1,000 for the sinking fund and
$500 for the water works. This
leaves the levy for both the years
of 1906 and 1909 for city purpos-
es at the same figure. AS the
extra 81, 800 in 1909 was used to
nav a $500 Indebtedness on the
CITY waterworks and the $1,000
was placed in the sinking fund
all other money was for the
schools and was carefully ex-
pended.
If. the editor of the News had
intended to be fair, and-had he
DESIRED to tell the truth on this
proposition he could have gone
to the city auditors Office and
procured the correct figures.
After making his misleading
statements as to the city taxes
of Milbank he then goes on and
compares the situation OF this
city with that of the state and
says that the taxes have increas-
ed in the city, and that the cost
of living has increased, that ev-
erything has increased and that
the increase and taxation in the
city and in the state is but nat
ural and to be expected.
II, he had CARED to make a
true comparison he would have
shown that the city's money had
been honestly and carefully ex-
pended-that crosswalks had
been built, streets improved, and
