Sioux Falls Argus Leader:
Down in Tennessee they tell a joke
on Governor Patterson. Astranger
passed in front of him while enter
ing the capitol and politely said:
'Pardon me, governor. Ger
tainly" was the prompt reply,
what are you in for?
The joke illustrates the awful
abuse which Governor Patterson
has made of the pardoning power.
BY its misuse he has practically
brought the work of the courts in
that state to naught, and when he
capped the climax by pardoning
the murderer of United States
senator, the opposition to him be.
came so intense that he didn't dare
to make the race for reelection. So
far as known, there is no charge OF
graft in connection with the whole
sale misuse of the pardoning power
but the plain story of what Patter-
son has done is most alarming.
While he has held Office a little
over three years, he has pardoned
l,O26 criminals-nearly one a day.
Of this number 100 had been con-
victed of murder. In less than
eight months after pardon, two of
them again committed murder.
The first thing that one of them
did after his pardon was to 60 at.

ter a witness who had played
prominent part in his conviction
and kill him.
In most states, the governor does
not use the pardoning power except
in a clerical way. simply signing
the papers on recommendation of
the board of pardons. Were such
a system in vogue in Tennessee,
many lives would have been saved,
and the outrage of ustice would
have been avoided. 1t is most
unfortunate for any state to be
burdened with Il governor like
Patterson, but it is a needless risk
for any state to rest the sole power
of pardon in the hands of any one
man.

Weekly Dakotan: Word comes
from Minneapolis of the death of
| Mrs. T. M. Madsen there Wednes-
day, Sept. 21st. in an automobile
accident. The auto, containing
Mr.. and Mrs. Madsen, their daugh-
ters, Mrs. Mary Evans, Carrie
Madsen and granddaughter, Flor
ence, with a guest, ran into street
car in trying to avoid an interur-
ban car from another direction,
and all were thrown out. Mrs.
Madsen struck on her head, frac-
turing her skull and causing in
stant death, but the other occu-
pants of the machine were only
badly cut and bruised. The news
comes as a great shock to host of
friends of the family. as Mr.. and
Mrs. Madsen were among the
early settlers of Pierre and were
widely known here and in Stanley
county where they had large
cattle ranch, as genial. whole soul
ed people who were generous
friends to everybody.
Mrs. Nahscn was the mother of
thirteen children. twelve of whom
survive her, the youngest being
about sixteen years of age. She

THE FAIR WAS A BIG SUCCESS
Large Crowds and Fine Weather
During all Three Days

The business men of Philip have
lived to see their most sanguine
expectations of successful county
fairs realized far beyond their
most rosy anticipations. That the
business men of Philip do things,
has again been demonstrated. The
tremendous success of the fair is
fore runner. an eye opener of
what the people of the county may
expect. when the business men of
Philip enunClate Il principle or
eSpOuse a cause and stamp it with
their seal of approval. No project
has been undertaken, no problem
has been offered for solution that
has not been met and satisfactorily
solved. 1t takes brains and energy
to succeed in business affairs of the
present day. The town of Philip
has been most fortunate in having
IN her midst Il class of men who
know how to dO things and who
are not afraid to put their hands
down into their Kentucky Jeans
and dig up the stuff that makes
old Mother Earth pulsate with
commercialiSm and industrial ac-
tlvlty. Men of this stripe can make
a town anyw here, be it in the fer
tile valley or on the desert plain,
and when they say they want coun-
ty division, they are going to have
it, for justice and the right must
prevail. The weather man was
most considerate. He gave to the
fair the best on earth. The sun
was not obscured by single cloud.
The wind was but summer breeze
unfolding the old flag to the gaze
of the multitude that everywhere
lined the streets. Everybody was
bent on having a good time, and
there was nothing to mar the
pleasure of the visitors. Governor
Vessey and Grandville Jones en-
tertained the occasion with their
interesting and witty speeches.
One of the splendid sights of the
fair was the whirring and whizzing
of the numerous automobiles as
they hurried to and fro, loaded to
the gun whale. They went by like
sky rockets shooting athwart the
sky. 1t was really one of the
grandest sights and the multitude
seemed to enjoy il, for most all
took a spin. There were no acci-
dents or trouble to mar the event,
and it was three days of genuine
pleasure, and something doing all
the time just as our fair managers
said there would be. A more ex-
tended writeup next week.

Manila Courier: The road
through Manila has been kept
warm this week by movers and
freighters, and there has been one
or two parties of campers on the
creek here every night of the week
thus far. A noteworthy fact is
that there seems to be as many
coming into the west as are going
out. Two families met here Mon
day, one going from Perkins county
to Iowa to stay until the railroad
comes and the other returning to
Perkins county after summer
spent in Clark county. Also on
Tuesday night, two parties camped
here and next morning one headed
east and the other to the west, and
so it seems emigrants and migrants
are equally divided.

Fall Flowing of Corn Lands

Most people recognize the value
of fall blowing for grain crops;
; but very few, however, follow the
| practice with their corn crops.
Many feel that they must leave the
corn land until spring in order to
be able to get on to the land the
manure that is made during the
winter. 1t has been found at the
Minnesota Experiment Station,
that from II to u loads per acre
of barnyard manure, taken direct
ly from the barn, can be applied
to fall plowed land and disced in
in the spring, so that it will not
interfere in any way with planting
or cu!tivating the crop. This
makes it practical to plow corn
land in the fall and still get the
manure made during the winter on
to the corn crop.
There is great advantage in
this practice, especially in dry
years. Flowing the coarse manure
under, so that the straw lies be-
tween the furrow slice and the
subsoil, makes it very difficult for
moisture to move up from the sub
soil to the furrow slice. On this
account. land that has been ma
nured and plowed in the spring,
the manure plowed under, is very
likely to dry out. BY manuring
on top of the land, and discing ma
nure into the surface, the manure
helps to form a surface mulch and
to check evaporation of moisture,
and when it does rain, the elements
of fertility in manure are washed
down into the furrow slice, where
the plant roots can get them. in
stead of being washed down into
the subsoil out of reach. The ex-
perts at the Minnesota University
Farm heartily recommend fall
blowing of the land for corn. -

kissable Lips

The honor of having the most
kissable lips in the world is one
which has been captured by Miss
Ray who is singing the engenue
role Winnie Windsom in Dan
Cupid" which plays an engage
ment at the opera house whose
likeness and tempting lips are
shown in the above picture. Miss
Kay when she chooses to pucker up
her lips osculatory purposes is
without doubt entitled to the title.
rs has been proven on numerous
occasions. Only the other day in
Minnesota city where the COM
pany was playing Miss Ray was
singing n song entitled I'D Like
to Have you Call me Honey" and
As it was part of the business of
the piece to sing to some one. she
chose a btawney son of toll fresh
from the agricultural districts,
who was seated in a stage box. AS
she sang on and leaned toward him
puckered up her lips in the most
tempting manner, the gentleman
from the farm disregarding alike
convention and custom cried by
gum, you can't dare me- and leap
ing on the stage endeavored to
clasp the terrified actress in his
arms. Miss Ray fled to the wings
in fright, and now she tries the
most kissable mouth in the world
upon some less determined man
person in the audience, to avoid a
repetition of this scene.
This is only one of the numerous
occasions where Miss Rays kiss
able mouth has made trouble for
her, although she is the unwilling
cause of it all, but when she looks
as if she wanted to be kissed there
seems to be no holding the men
folks and the young lady in ques-
tion has had to flee from ambitious
gentlemen who forget themselves
more than once. Il am sure don't
know why it is" says Miss Ray
but | can't help it, it isn't my
fault that people want to Kiss me

ed a soul. Now you wouldn't try
to kiss me would you, and she tried
the famous pucker on the reporter

Sweeney Nabbed

| tI"". Sweeney. who has been
working for Fred Fairchild on
Spotted Bear. was arrested this
morning by deputy sheriff BaSeler
on warrant issued by Justice
Hagerty. on complaint of VIM.
kertZman.
Mr.. krrtZlnan who runs a gen
eral store. has suffered two losses
by burglary. one on the night of
Aug. 20 and again last Saturday
night Sept. Il. Both times the
back door lock was picked and on
the first occasion the till was tap
ped of about S15 and a pair of
gloves taken and last Saturday
night fur lined coat and pair of
shoes were missing, with probably
other small articles.
Suspicious circumstances con-
nected Sweeney, who is abeut 20
years of age, with the thievery.
He had joined the Modern Wood
man lodge here and on both occa-
sions had come to town to attend
the lodge, there being lodge meet
itg on sthose dates. but did not
show up on either occasions at the
hall. Knowing that Mr.. Kertz-
man was in attendance ut the lodge
and that the store was unguarded
he took advantage of the opportn-
nifty. His queer actions placed
him under suspicion from the first
but Mr.. Kertzman kept quiet for
further developments and yester-
day he learned that Sweeney was
wearing a new coat which cores
ponded in description with the one
taken from the store. A search
warrant was issued and served by
deputy Baseller this morning and
they found the stolen property in
Sweeney's possession. He was
brought to Milesville and given a
hearing before Justice Hagerty
this afternoon. He plead guilty
to taking the goods and $17 in
money and was fined 500 and &c
days in the county jail. Mr.. Basel
ler left right after the trial with
his prisoner for Fort Pierre.
Sweeney has mother and broth
er living near Woodlawn. For a
time he was editor of the Topbar
paper. He has served a term in
the reform school for similar
offense. His being a MINOR saved
him from a long term in the peni-
tentiary for burglary, Mr.. Kertz-
man preferring charge of petit
larceny against him instead. -

NO SHIRT
REFUSES TO
Be COUNTED
UNITED rnnss LEASED wInn.I

Pendleton, Ore, May 14.-Chief
Charlie No Shirt, OF the Walla Walla
tribe, has taken to the tall timbers
OF the Blue Mountains. Today he is
sued def to Uncle Sans enumera-
tors, and told them that there would
be no count of the walla wallas un-
til he received personal assurance
from President Taft that no harm
would result.
Ever since the census began the
enumerators have had trouble with
the various tribes of the Umatilla
reservation. The Indians believe that
the census men were representatives
of the tax department of the state,
and as result they refused to come
out of the mountains.
Finally Capain o. c. Applegate
who is well-known and trusted by the
Umatillas, Nez Perces and Cayuses,
succeeded in calming the redmen.
They gathered at the regular camp
ing places, on orders from Chief Peo,
and submitted to the count. But No
Shirt was suspicious, and, with his
followers, ,he hied into the crags, and
ordered the tribe to disperse, until
the great White Father, which is
President Taft, is heard from.
