The Stalwart party stands for con-
sentative, economical administration OF
the states affairs; for the application
of business methods; for the elimina-
ton of the abuses the "reformers"
have permitted the railroad and ex-
press companies to impose upon the
people of the state; for lower and more
equitable taxation; for the abolition OF
numerous expensive offices created by
the 'reformers" for the benefit of pol
itical heelers; and for return to that
safe and sane state government where
in the expenditures do not exceed the
revenues. These are the things the
stalwarts represent, and yet Editor
Bronson says he cannot find man who
will endorse the principles of the stall
warts. We would advise the dear bro
Their to wipe that mote out of his eye
and take another look. He will find
that practically every taxpayer is up in
arms against the extortionate taxes,
the extravaganza and mismanagement
for which our reform" administration
is responsible, and he will also find that
the only ones who are making any
noise in behalf of the reform" ma
chine are few office holders and their
personal heelers. The demand for a
continuance of the Crawford Wesley
brand of reform" is decidedly weak
and Editor Bronson will learn on June
7th that fully 20 percent of the repuh.

A painfully funny feature of the
present campaign is the attempt to
defeat Johnson for state treasurer by
claiming insurgent credit for the pas
sage of the depository law. 1t was the
advocacy of this very thing which made
Johnson treasurer, and the use of the
income from the state funds which
caused the defeat of the insurgent state
treasurer, Cassill, in his candidacy for
reelection. If it were not for the
occasional funny episode in politics it
would get to be serious matter. Gro

The Vessey- Richards machine is
now furnishing ''boiler plate" editori-
ais to such publications as the Waubay
Clipper, the Britton Sentinel, and other
reform" papers whose editors have
not sufficient brains to write their own
editorials. This ''boiler plate service
is doubtless paid for by the railroad
machine with which the reform ma
chine is allied, and which, it rumored
is standing the brunt of the reform
campaign expenses.

There is some discussion as to Mr..
Ewert's object in becoming candidate
for the office of state treasurer, but it
appears tobe the general opinion that his
candidacy is in the interest of the Pierre
National Bank of Commerce, of which
institution he is the president. If Mr..
Ewert is elected the stockholders of
that bank will probably have their divi-
dends increased about 100 percent.

SHOW VIRTUES
OF BOTH GAMES

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-Considerable
interest has been aroused in collegiate
athletic circles over the proposed
game of football between the Univer-
sity of Toronto and Cornell university.
Nothing definite has been settled as
vet, but it is said by those who know
of the plan that it is practically certain
that the two teams will meet in No
vember next on some neutral field.
Why should these two teams meet?
They play an entirely different style Of
game. YET the benefits to be derived
are many. Canadians desire the game
in order that the question of a superb
ority Of one style of play over the
other may be definitely settled. For
years it has been the contention Of
the followers of the Canadian game
that their teams were equal to, If nor
superior to, the college elevens in the
states Americans desire the game in
order that it may afford football au-
thorities a clear insight into the worth
of Canadian football as opposed to the
american play
1t is a generally accepted fact that
some radical changes in American rug
by rules must go into effect next fall
The game, as now played, has aroused
much adverse criticism, not only from
the public but also from college au-
thorities. coaches and trainers all over
the country. The list of deaths and
serious accidents for this last autumn
was unusual In Canada there was not
a single death. and but few accidents
of serious nature A game between
Toronto and Cornell would clearly de-
monstrate the feasibility of American
teams adopting Canadian rugby rules,
either in part or as a whole.
The game proposed between Toronto
varsity and Cornell has been the sub
ject of a great deal of discussion. What
they would play, how would referees
be chosen for such a match? These
and other kindred questions have been
argued over many times by those in
| terested in the project. The game
would be played under both sets Of
rules. the first half Canadian and the
second half American. Syracuse has
been suggested as a likely field. and
this met with the approval of all in
] terested in the proposed game.
{ The question of referees will indeed
prove a troublesome one, the only way
to solve the difficulty apparently being
ito allow Canadian and American game
officers to judge their respective halves.

peculiar proposition throughout
In September, 1909, J. S. Cain and
his partners, after acquiring the wa
ters on Mill Creek at Lundy Lake,
securing patents to the land both at
the lake and at Jordan. had survey
made for the pipe line. In the latter
part of November, 1909, the portion
of the pipe line route now in dispute
was withdrawn from entry and this
year, after the ditch was made in
which to lay the pipe an injunction
was served upon the company,
