The special committee appointed at
the last session of the legislature to
probe the senatorial primary election,
has made it's report, and it shows a
condition of political rottenness in the
state far worse than had been antici-
pated by the public. It began, accord
ing to the tenor of the report, during
the great reform period, when the state
employees and the state treasury were
used by the great reformer to further
his own personal and selfish ends and
the expenditures of the state doubled
to pay the salaries and expenses of an
army Of absolutely unnecessary and
useless employees. The report shows
a most disgraceful state of affairs and
emphasizes the fact that there should
be housekeeping and the false pre-
tenders cast down and out. The money
expended in the senatorial campaign
was only question of who could and
would spend the most in order to secure
the nomination. One candidate was as
equally culpable as the other, and went
out to buy the nomination as he would
buy sheep and hogs. The people should
hang their heads in shame. WATERFOWL

FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1910

In 1906 President Roosevelt wrote the
following high endorsement of Speaker
Cannon to Congressman Watson of
Indiana: "With Mr.. Cannon as speak
er the house has accomplished a literal
ly phenomenal amount of good work.
1t has shown a courage, good sense
patriotism, such that it would be real
misfortune for the country to fail to
recognize. To change the leadership
and organization of the house at this
time means to bring confusion upon
those who have been engaged success
fully in the steady working out of a
great and comprehensive scheme for
and civic conditions" At that session
of congress Hal Cooper voted for Can
non for speaker. Cooper was appoint
ed chairman of the Insular Committee
and he endorsed the rules and speaker
ship of Joseph Cannon Two years
later Cooper again voted for the same
man and the same rules and everything
was lovely, but after that Cannon fail
ed to reappoint Cooper as chairman,
and Immediately Cannon became unfit
and the rules became enormities. So
by Cooper's vote you have Cooper's
measure. His public office is private
snap. He has forgotten that he is the
republican congressman of the first
congressional district of Wisconsin. He
seems utterly oblivious to the fact that,
that district is one of the republican
strongholds of Wisconsin. He has
overlooked the fact that President Taft
received very strong majority vote in
that district. He has entirely forgot
ten that he is under any obligation to
his constituents to vote for and do all
in his power to carry out the pledges
of the republican party Or possibly
Mr.. Cooper in his supreme egotism
thinks he is bigger than his party, that
he is wiser and safer party leader
than the president. But it does seem
as though this great prosperous repub-
lican district was entitled to man who
would pay little attention to the needs
of his district and let his personal pref
udice be subservient to his party's
welfare.

''Dust, refuse and sweepings should
always be burned" says a warning
sent out by the Wisconsin Anti-Tuber-
culosis association. The warning is
particularly appropriate now when the
housekeeping time is here. Dust is
one of the greatest communications of
consumption and great care should be
exercised in its disposal. Now that the
furnaces and stoves are still in use it is
simple matter to drop sweepings into
the fire, few drops of oil being added
if necessary.

Bryan's Tribute to ToIstoi

''Tolstoi saw the coming of the
era of brotherhood; it is evident
everywhere. This morning in the
newspapers l noticed the account
of the death of that great apostle
of love. He was q wonderful man.
Born in the circles of aristocracy,
he had access to the highest circles
of Russian society.
Gifted with a great mind, he
became an author. depicting
strangely and powerfully the social
conditions in his native land. He
enlisted in the army of his coun-
try. With such advantages he
sounded all the depths of privileges
for forty years. Yet he found il
all unsatisfactory. In the ceiling
of room in his house there is
shown to visitors q ring placed
there by him for the purpose OF
hanging himself.
But after he was forty years
old this man had a vision. He
found out and declared upon ar
occasion of my visit to him in his
home few years ago that The
great rule for the lives of men il
that of the Master: Thou shalt
love the Lord, thy God, with al
thy heart, with all thy soul, with
all thy mind and with all thy
strength; and thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself, and this grea,
man added: Not enough do We
emphasize the FIRST part of this
commandment, for unless mar
loves God he has not learned tc
know his neighbor.'
And for thirty years this mar
dared the power of the very circles
in which he had before moved, and
his messages have been of love fol

ARRESTED IN SIOUX CITY
Well Known Rancher Accused of
CrIme-Gets His Name in the
City Papers

Herman Sonneschein, a man we'll
known throughout Stanley coun-
ty, was placed under arrest in
Sioux City Sunday morning, while
enroute to Chicago with a shipment
of cattle. According to the Pierre
Capital Journal Sonneschein is al
legged to have included steer be-
longing to Harry Briggs, a neigh
Dor, in shipment of cattle few
weeks ago, and sold the animal for
his own profit. The Journal adds,
The people of Pierre who know
Mr.. Sonneschein, who was a resi-
dent here last year and before, be-
lieye this to be a put up job or q
mistake on some ones part" He
owns we'll stocked ranch south of
Fort Pierre, which he has built up
while travelling fer the Information
al Harvester company, position
he dropped few months ago to
devote his attention to his ranch.
A reporter for the Sioix City
Journal has worked up the story
in great shape. When we read it
we are almost lead to believe that
this region has never got away from
''the wild and woody" stage. Here
it is:
Herman Sonnenschein, a wealthy
ranch owner and stockman of
Pierre, s. d., was arrested at IL
O'Clock yesterday morning at the
request of Sheriff George s. Hus-
ton, also of Pierre. No specific
charge has been placed against the
ranchman and he is completely
mystifed as to the affair. He says
he accounts for his arrest only by
q chain of circumstances which in
cludes q neighborhood quarrel in
which he was the victor, the race
for county sheriff q short time ago,
and the leasing Of Indian lands by
ranchmen for grazing purposes.
So well known in Sioux City is
Sonnenschein that A. J. Siman,
manager Of the Clay Robinson
company, stock commission man
and former councilman signed his
bond. The amount was fixed at
1880 by Police Judge H. +. Sims.

Mitchell-A month ago the Chi

way company suspended operations
on the extension of the line of road
from Eagle Butte, in the western
part of the state, to Faith, assign
ing as reason that they were un-
able to continue on account of the
impossibility of securing ties to
lay the track. It left the settlers
ont in the country in very bad
shape, in that they expected the
company to finish the line and they
had failed to lay in their winter
supplies, and would thus be badly
handicapped to get through the
winter season. Notwithstanding
that the company pulled off the
large crew of men and stopped fur
thsr operations at Eagle Buttes.
The Faith business men were not
% complacent about the matter.
and they immediately started to
organize q committee, which was
