PRESIDENT ADVISED
TO USE TOMAHAWk


as well as some of those along the
Mississippi, Will approve the provision.
If they get the fifteen Democratic votes
and hold the forty Republicans, they
will have a majority of eight.
The nineteen Republicans who, II is
thought, will vote for the amendments,
are Beveridge, Borah, Bristow, Brown,
Burkett Carter, Clapp, Crawford, Cum
Minis, Curtis, Dixon, Dolliyer, Gamble,
Guggenheim, Hepburn. LaFOllette, Nix
on, Smoot and Sutherland. The sup
porters of the provision hope also to
get Senator Jones vote.
President Taft at Work.
The President is said to be urging
Republican senators to keep the long
and short haul question out of the bill,
but is not making it a test Of party
loyalty. He takes the position that
most OF the amendments suggested
would have the effect of placing rail-
road charges purely on mileage basis.
Refusing to concede that such would
be the result, the proponents believe IL
the provision should be inserted he
would not veto the bill on that account
as has been asserted he would do.
On other points they find the Presi-
dent most insistent upon maintaining
strict party discipline. Senator Bran
degee. who is among the staunchest of
the stalwarts. is reported by his col
leagues as having advised the chief
executive to quit kissing off the in
surgents" and to get out his toma-
hawk" and the President is said TO
have expressed no disapproval of the
suggestion.

that a number Of dress rehearsals be

Cremer has her misgivings as to the
animals and has expressed her fear that
several score of sheep may run riot on

Some of Miss Cremer's shepherdesses

PUBLICITY NECESSARY.

Some members of the incoming leg
islature have declared themselves in
favor of the repeal of the publicity
features of the initiative and referen-
dunn They take this position Ito save
money" but there are certainly some
things in the proposal which they
have overlooked.
On the face OF it, it is quite absurd
to expect the voter to render an in
telligent vote on list of laws sub
mitted for his approval or rejection,
unless he has chance to read and
study the laws in question. To ask
him to vote merely on the title, with
no chance to scan the details, would
be to ask him to take leap in the
dark. The title might be all right,
and the details mighs be all wrong.
The law might be loaded with bad
things and given good name. How
is he to tell without chance to read
the text of the proposed law? 1t
would be the same as to abolish the
printing of bills submitted to the leg
islature, and to adopt the policy OF
enactment by titles.
If this change is made, the people
l
would be justified in setting down In
to a fixed ''vote no" attitude until the
repeal Of the initiative and referendum
was accomplished. This would open
precious chance for the special IN
terests, making it possible to kill in
elections almost any measure passed
by the Legislature. The Importance
of the publicity feature OF the sub
mitted laws is recognized by every
state where the present system is II
vogue. and no sentiment OF false
Kingsbury County independent. (DeSmet, Kingsbury County, S.D.) 1894-1929, 1910-12-16

Now that the democrats have se-
cured control of the lower national
house and a certain amount of
monkeying with the tariff seems prob
able. it is to be sincerely hoped that
{ he coming session of our state legis-
lature will display enough horse sense
not to pass resolutions instructing our
representatives in congress to work
for some special tariff schedule that
may appear to be of possible benefit
to some interest in this section. The
last session instructed our representa-
tives to work for tariff on wool, about
tho most worthless excuse for traiff
that was ever originated Of course,
man in congress working for tariff
on wool, said to be of heneft to the
wool growers of South Dakota and
Montana, could not consistently op-
pose tariff on cotton and sugar, said
to be of benefit to the farmers of the
southern states. Such instructions,
when followed, place our representa-
tives in position where they are
obliged to barter aud sell their votes
to obtain that which they are instruct
ed to obtain. We get our tariff on
wool and the price Immediately went
of 30 per cent The cotton growers
got the tariff on cotton, and cotton is
lower. The few raisers of raw sugar,
who produce only what may be term
ed drop in the bucket, got the tariff
on sugar, but no raise in the price of
raw material. The reason these tariff
schedules are of no benefit is the fact
that the price of the product is either
controlled hyas trust trust, of by the ex-
port market, and generally there is
trust at the end of the export
market. The trusts pay whatever
price they please to the producer, a nd
add the tariff to the price charged the
consumer. AS result of the tariff
on wool we helped to make tariff on
lumber. That is a tariff that only
helps the monte din5erests that have
secured monopoly on the standing
timber. Take for instance the yellow
pine lumber of the south. The labor
employed is principally negro labor
at from 81 90 to 81 80 per day, so that
it cannot even be claimed the tariff is
in the interest OF the iaboring man
engaged ia that business 1t is
through the selfish interests of differ
ent localities that the trusts are able
to secure their special favors. trading
one selfish section against another,
and in the end each section finds it is
holding an empty sack.
