MoraI---Buy Your Own Paper

A man who was too economical
to subscribe for his home paper
sent his little boy to borrow
the copy taken by his neighor.
In his haste the boy ran over a
four dollar stand of bees and in
ten minutes looked like a warty
summer squash. His cries reached
his father, who ran to his assistance,
and, failing to notice a barbed wire
fence, ran into it breaking it down,
cutting handful of flesh from his
anatomy and running a five-dollar
pair Of pants. The old COW took
advantage Of the gap in the fence
and got into the cornield and
killed herself eating corn. Hear

Auditors are Negligent

It's now two weeks since the pri-
mary was held in this state, and
still the newspapers must make the
humiliating confession that they
have just learned how the contest
over the commissioner of school
and public lands came out, and
what was the total vote for COVER
nor and congressman. 1t is all a
matter of carelessness. The coun-
ty auditors do not promptly send
in the returns, as the law calls for,
and hence the whole state is kept
waiting. The next session of the
legislature should amend the law
so that special messenger may be
sent to the missing counties at the
expense of the auditor and after
that is done few times, there will
be no further troubl about getting
the complete returns at Pierre very
soon after elections are held.
There is no state in the union
which is more behind the times in
the matter of election returns than
is South Dakota. In the present
cas- the county auditors are to
blame. Each of them had the
complete returns but some of them
were too shiftless to mail them to
the proper department at the state
capital.

CONGRESSMAN Martin

Congressman Martin, of this
state, in a meaty fve-minute talk
in the house this week, submitted
figures to show that the products
of the farm today buy more in ex-
change than they did ten years ago
This can mean but one thing
higher farm values. That means
also that the man who is buying
farms today is making the most
promising investment open to him.
1t means not only that he is sure
of the money he puts into the land,
but also that he is sure of an appre-
citation in its value. South Dako-
t. land will average 500 an acre
before the advance is realized.
Now is the golden opportunity in
South Dakota. One can buy land
in this state with his eyes shut,
and make money.

interesting question, and charges
the loss of prestige among the
voters of the state to the record of
Crawford and Gamble in the SEN
ate.
Before the primary, the insur-
gents professed to have implicit
confidence in their w Wshington
leaders. If q mere stalwart so
much as breathed a suspicion that
our senator's were not all true blue
insurgents, the wrath of the offend
er came down upon him from all
parts of the state. Gallons of ink
were spilled and lot of valuable
print paper wasted defending the
senator's. Now that the election is
over the real feelings of the in
su, gents toward Gamble and
Crawford begins to appear. The
u,animity with which they rise up
to place the fault upon the sena-
tors in eloquent of their insincerity
before the election. Never for
one minute did they believe that
their senator's were the virtuous
folk that they pretended.
But the thing that looms up with
startling clearness out of this dis
paragement of the United States
senator's, is the fact that there is a
strong probability that they will
awake respectively two and four
years hence and find themselves in
the discard. Dick Richards has
sworn terrible oath to the general
OBJECT that he will leave no stone
unturned in the way that leads to
the taking of Crawford's political
scalp; and Glass, Dillon, Richards,
and few others are already plan
ming the political downfall of
Gamble two years hence. 1t means
war, cold, unfeeling war, in the
camp flying the almost sacred ban
ner of insurgency. 1t means that
the old leaders of the tribe are to
be led forth to the block; that they
are to look about them upon the
unrelenting faces of their one time
friends, now their executioners;
that they are to feel the edge of
the political AK; that they are to
take their last look upon life and
all that was fair to them, upon the
pie counter, tho feed trough, and
the political double shuttle, and
then bow their faces to the block
and feel their precious heads fall
in the sawdust. Oh, it's bloody,
and its bad. Too bad.

President Taft's declaration that
the coming issue in this country is
socialism, has raised considerable
discussion. One writer doubts if
the president understands the def
milton of socialism as a political
term, and adds that there is wide
difference of opinion among the
members of the party as well. In
passing, we know that republicans
differ as to the true meaning of
republicanism, the democrats are
the same way as regards the party
of their adoption, so none of us
have anything on those with whom
we are to scrap later on.

Governor Vessey's plurality Q

Governor Vessey's plurality of
some 5000 votes is pronounced a
big plurality'' by the insurgent
press and Burke's and Martins
majority of some 4,5O0 termed a
narrow margin. This only shows,
says the Pierre Dakotan, how
foolish it is to attempt to deceive

two make four; not sometimes, but

The Impending Slaughter Of The
Fatted Senators

If one will give only little at
tention to the progressive press oi
the state these days, it will easily
be seen that there is trouble in
store for Senators Gamble and
Crawford. The brethren, who re.
mained in Washington SO compla-
Gently during the recent primary
unpleasantness in this state, are be-
ing openly charged with treason to
the cause of insurgency. Those
who do not go so far as to charge
treason in so many words, openly
assert that the recent attitude OF
the insurgent senator's, so called,
in Washington was a dead weight
to the progress of the campaign in
this state. Col. Bowen of the
Huronite puts his view of the stu
alton in the following language:
1.-Two members of the delegation
insisted that Cannonism be made
an issue and did not insist that
Aldrichism be made an issue and
were found in fact more often with
Aldrich in the official record than
against him. The other two mem.
bers of the delegation were in
alignment with the Cannonites and
were presumed to be in sympathy
with the Aldrichites."
Dick Richards, who is talking
with just as much vigor and vehe-
mence as was so characte ristic OF
the Huron statesman prior to his
recent defeat, comes right out ano
calls a spade spade, and tells the
somewhat astonished brethren thai
neither of the two senator's are any
longer ace high in the hand helo
by insurgency. Here is the closing
paragraph of a late interview:
"The jolt the progressive move.

attitude of Senators Gamble ano

What One State Does For Roads

vu0l VIC Ol0tC OVCS vi uVouS
Sooner or later the South Dako-
ia legislature will pass law that
will engage the state in the work
of building roads. What form the
law will take cannot, of course, be
predicted. But. in a state whose
one big industry is farming, where
in the marketable products must
be hauled by team over country
roads and wherein the business of
the towns and cities is largely with
the farmers and families who must
travel over roads before carrying
on such business, it is inevitable
that in time, the economy of build
ing good roads will be fully under
stood. Whether the state should
90 so far rs to contribute part of
the expense of improving road or
whether it should do no more than
to supervise and systematic the
work done by the counties, is a
question.
In Maryland, for example, the
state believes the construction Of
good road important enough to
warrant an annual investment by
the state of as much as 100000,
providing an equal amount is paid
out by the counties. This particu-
lar law provides for the construc-
tion of macadam roads and a high
way division of the state geological
service, is maintained at the cost
of 500, 900 annual appropriation
for the purpose of supervising the
road work in which the state par
ticipates. County commissioners
may petition, on or before March
of each year, for aid in the build
ing of a road and if the highway
commission finds, upon investiga-
i ton, that the road is one of general
! convenience, plans and specifica-
tions for the improvement are
! prepared. If these plans are salts
factory to the county, the commits
sioners undertake the work of con-
struction and when it is finished
and approved by the commission,
the state pays half the expense.
This money is taken from the gen.
sral fund of the state supplied by
license fees, ETC., and not by taxa
tion.
In addition to this law, Mary
land has another which authorizes
the state to build purely state roads
| Ill the expense for them being
borne BY the state. For this pur-
pose . stats roads commission has
been created. Il was believed that
