COUNTY OPTION.

While possessing the most profound
respect for the many good people who
are enthusiastically In favor of the
approval of the county option law by
the voters Of South Dakota at the
November election, the Free Press.
nevertheless, is very strongly of the
opinion that the voters, being fair
minded men, will reject the proposed
| law.
| The Free Press does not believe in
prohibition, and it does not believe in
I county option, because it believes it
a step toward prohibition. This pa
per is of the opinion that local option
and the high license law is the best
way yet devised by lawmakers for
controlling the liquor traffic. 1t be-
lieves the municipalities, who must
pay for the police protection and the
other expenses of city government,
are the best judges of whether or not
they want saloons. and that the ques-
ton should be left to the people of
the different towns to decide for
themselves. Under county option,
the country precincts would bear no
no share of the burden of municipal
expense, but would have the right to
dictate the manner in which the viii
lagos, towns and cities shall raise
their revenue. Under prohibition in
the guise of county option, as under
prohibition undisguised, the towns
wonld have to contend with the boot
logger and the dive keeper, with vir-
tually no compromising advantages.
Under the present system of high Ii
cense, the saloons keep we'll within
the letter of law, because they have
too heavy sum at stake to risk be-
ing caught violating it. The saloon
keeper is business man with enough
invested to render him careful of
jeopardizing his business by unlaw-
full methods. The dive keeper and
the bootjegger have naught to lose,
therefore they care not to whom they
sell nor in what manner their nnlaw-
full business is conducted. Therefore,
the dive is infinitely worse than the
saloon and the town which does not
have q saloon. and does not, as an al
tentative, possess a dive, is an excep-
tion to the general rule.
But the main objection to the pro-
posed county option law, in the opin~
ion of this paper, is that it takes
away from the cities the right of self
government, making the county, rath-
or than the towns, the unit in pure
ly local matter.
The Free Press is opposed to the
proposed county option law for the
further reason. that it will sweep from
the shelves of all drug stores in this
state every article in the line of pre-
paratory medicines.
Bear in mind that the defeat of the
proposed county option law will, in no
manner. change the existing high Ii.
cense and local option law.

DANGER IN DELAY.
Kidney Diseases are too Dangerous fol
Salisbury to Neglect.

This great danger of Kidney troubles
is that they take a firm hold before the
sufferer recognizes them. Health is
gradually undermined. Backache,
headache, nervousness, lameness, sore
ness, lumbago, urinarytroubles, drop
sy, diabetes and Brights disease follow
in merciless succession. Don't neglect
your kidneys. Cure the kidneys with
the certain and safe remedy, Doan's
Kidney Pills, which has cured people
right here in Salisbury.
M. M. Williams, u Kirk street, Sal
isbury, N. c., says: &C; suffered a
great deal at times from dull pains
across my back, accompanied by a sore
ness across my kidneys. l also had
headaches and felt tired and languid
nearly all the time. l noticed that the
kidney %secretions were unnatural and
this led me to believe that my kidneys
needed prompt attention. Seeing
Doan's Kidney pills highly recommend
ed for such troubles, I procured a box
and used them in accordance with the
directions. / received the best of re-
suits and can say that they helped me
wonderfully. l am now feeling much
better, and I give Doan's Kidney Pills
the credit.

parts of the grounds.
At the time of the outbreak not
less than 100, 900 persons were
circulating in the grounds and the
Kermessee Troops were ordered
out to aid the police in clearing
the grounds. This was accom-.

mass. fighting desperately to es.
cape from the flames.
I AS the flames rescued the men-

beasts but the heat drove back
the soldiers and the animals We're
left to their fate.
The fire was finally gotten un'

all the other sections, including
the American were partly destroy
ed.
