WHY KEEP KNoCKINGp

To urge economy in the conduct of
the business of the state of South Da-
kota is all right. Topublish compar-
ative figures showing the increase of
state indebtedness is excusable. To
accuse the state administration OF
great extravaganza and waste and un-
necessarily incurring large obligations
is all wrong. To intimate that the
state is verging on bankruptcy and is
Tot able to stand the expense of pro-
viding for its public institutions, is
unpatriotic and severe knock on the
good name and prosperity of South
Dakota. No politician should stoop to
it for the mere purpose Of making
political capital
Let the ultra stalwart newspapers
maitain if they will that some of the
few new offices created could be dis
pensed with. and that some of the as
sistants provided for might have been
left out Of the reckoning. The pro.

It was moved and carried that the

To the chairman of the board Of coun-
ty commissioners of Kingsbury
County, South Dakota.
Your committee appointed to check

examined said accounts and compar.
ed them with the books of the coun-
ty auditor and find that they agree
as to the amounts received and dis
bursed since last examination made
on the 9Th day of January, 1909. We
also find that he has cash on hand
and bank balances which agree with
the amount with which he stands

The Presidents message to con
gress in regard to corporations con.
tains some features that are right to
the point, and, if enacted into law
will resnlt in great good. His rec
ommendation for special court to
decide matters pertaining to railroad
questions is one of vital Importance
The greatest stumbling block in the
way of railroad legislation has been
the federal courts of lower degree.
Most of these judges are men OF
ordinary, or less, ability, appointed
for the most part as reward fol
political activity, and more particular
ly without ability or training sufficient
to give them fair knowledge of the
railroad questions. The subject is
one so intricate, that there are almos
as many different decisions as there
are judges before whom such cases
have been argued. The recommends
ton of the president for special
court is timely and wise. He askes
for federal corporation law, another
wise move, and one recognized by
thinking men as one of the necessities
in handling the industrial situation n
of the time. We have already had
enough experience in the attempt to
handle interstate commerce and cor
porations through state control to
know that it cannot be done success
fully His recommendation that
federal officials be given the power to
say what shall be fair valuation up
on which to issue stock, and to per-
NIT organization of ''holding com
panies" is matter upon which we
are not clear. Some system must be
adopted for controlling this matter
and, if this suggestion of the presi
dents is not all that it should be, it
is step in the right direction. This
special message will meet with gener-
al approval of the people.

gressive citizen knows that these
things must be added as the state
grows. He also knows that a large
portion of the debt of the state was
incurred in permanent improvement
of our normal schools and other state
institutions. These are not annual
expenses. During the year when a
man builds house he expects to
spend more money than in the follow
ing years when he occupies and en-
joys it. South Dokota is young
state and is in the building period.
For one thing she has been saving
money to build a capitol. This
money is invested in land and a large
slice of the state debt is mere adj
vance on good collateral.
The Iroquois Chief some time ago
published list of new offices created
under progressive administrations
with assistants and increases in SAL
aries. Some of these are paid by fees
and add no additional expense to the
state. Others are to provide for fight
ing the railroad rate cases which ex-
penditure no one will condemn. OF the
balance according to the Chiefs list,
there is less than $4,000 in salaries
to new officers and assistants and
ST 900 in increases.
What a conservative increase is this
for state whose needs are growing
with her splendid growth! How reas
enable are the salaries of the state
officers and assistants compared with
those of neighboring states! What a
showing on which to base slander
of the state and advertising it broad
cast over the country as almost bank
rupt by the iniquity of its administra.
ton!
The political ambitions of no one
man or set of men should be placed
in the scales over against this sort of
knocking on South Dakota. Enough
stalwart newspapers have endorsed
Governor Vessey and his administra-
tion to make the irreconcilables feel
ashamed of themselves.
Whatever may be the bitterness Of
feeling politically, let us cease to
slander the name of this state after
such fimsy pretext. Sioux Falls

EFFORTS to secure an adjustment OF
the switchmen's strike in the north
west through the Offices of the
mediators under the Erdman act have
so far failed In fact it was announc-
ed the latter part of last week that
the effort had been abandoned. On
top of this is the fact that the switch
men at Chicago and other points will
this week attempt to secure a salts
factory adjustment of existing differ.
ences, and the prospects are none too
bright for a settlement. 1t is also
stated that the machinists aud freight
handlers unions contemplate sym
pathetic strike to aid the switchmen.
There is spirit of unrest among rail
road workers and every day seems to
add to this unrest and lessen pros
poets of peac ,ful settlem snt. 1t
would not be surprising if the end
will be general strike.

CONGRESSMAN MARTIN has introduc
ed bill providing that corporations
having capital of $l000,00000, or
more, other than common carriers,
must secure license from the Secretary
of State before engaging in interstate
commerce. One of the requirements
before license can be secured is
proof of the fact that the concern is
not over capitalized, and that it is not
