Work Embarrassed.

chihuahua Mexico. December 1.-THE
peace commission" returned to-day
and reltorted That the work was great
ly embarrassed by the fact that SOL
diers followed at the heels OF the COM
missioners. at Guerrero, Just as they
We're beginning to talk with the insur-
rectos, peon arrived with word that
the soldiers We're on the way, where
upon the meeting promptly ended.
At Geurtero and also at San Anto-
MO the commissioners We're told that
the main grievance is against the State
government rather than against Diaz.
To-day telegrams We're exchanged with
the capital with reference to the pro-
posals that the government forces be
halted pending another conferences be-
tween the commission and the insur-
rectos.
Seemingly authentic reports tonight
state that Guerrero has been taken by
the revolutionists with some loss OF
life. Details are lacking.

Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1910-04-14

Some of the "reformers" have decid-
ed to reform and break away from the
rule of Boss Richards. We are pleased
to note their spirit of independence,
but warn them that their revolt is USE
less. Richards has the "reform"
press, the reform" candidates and the
entire reform" organization within
his grasp, and is in a position to run
the whole reform" show. Richards
occupies the same position in the ere
form" faction as the boss of Tammany
does in the democratic party in New
York, and those reformed "reformers'
who have the audacity to revolt against
his authority as boss of the reform
machine may expect to feel the weight
of his machine.
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1910-04-14

Another typical reform" fake was
recently circulated to the effect that
Governor Elrod is receiving so little
encouragement that he is figuring on
withdrawing from the race. The fact
is that wherever Governor Elrod an
pears ne is greeted by large and enthu-
siastic audiences, and all classes are
hooking to his standard. The taxpay-
ers, as general rule, are thoroughly
disguised with the extravaganza, mis-
management and incompetence of the
reform bunch, and Governor Elrod,
as well as the rest of the stalwart can
didates, are assured of a sweeping
stalwart victory at the June primaries.

"Reformv Deceit

'NGioIh DSSSh
The Webster World of last week
complains that the Reporter and Farm
er is publishing long, tiresome and
senseless tables to prove that the cost
of running the state government has
increased largely in the last few years.
The World goes farther and asks US to
show that the new buildings at Aber-
deem, Redfield, Yankton and Pierre
were not necessary; and then, for lack
of argument, the World editor branches
off and in an attempt to be humorous
advises some of the Reporter and
Farmer force to get married.
1t is very evident to a thinking man
after reading last weeks World that
the progressive republicans, or the
Performers" as they are better known,
have absolutely no defense for the rank
extravaganza of the Crawford and YES
sey administrations. The tables which
have been printed in this paper during
the past few weeks have shown con-
clusively to the taxpayers of Day coun-
ty what has been their quota Of the
price paid for the alleged reforms"
enacted under Crawford and Wesley.
The World speaks of the new buildings
at Aberdeen, Redfeld, Yankton and
Pierre. Right here we want to call the
attention of our people to the fact that
this is another attempt on the part of
Brother Bronson to deceive them. He
knows, and every one else who is con-
versant with South Dakota history
knows, that the new building at Pierre
has not cost the State of South Dakota
one single dollar. He knows, or he
should know, that the capitol building
at Pierre has been built from funds
secured by the sale of lands donated to
the state of South Dakota at the time
of admission to statehood by the United
States government for that express
purpose. Of course our ''reform"
republicans are driven to the last ditch
and would like to use the new capitol
building as a shield for their extrava-
gance, and in this respect Editor Bron-
son differs but very little from his
reform" brothers.
AS to the other improvements at
Aberdeen, Redfeld and Yankton, it
might be well to call our deceitful bro
theirs attention to the amount of money
expended for permanent public improve
ments under the administration of gov
errors Herried and Elrod. The World,
along with other sheets of like color,
has been trying to create the impress
sion that under the Crawford and Yes
sey administrations there has been
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1910-04-14

Ii the increased cost of living" is
responsible for the increased cost of
conducting the affairs of the state, as
some of our reform" friends claim. it
seems strange that state treasurer John
son, the only sta,wart in office
should be able to conduct the affairs of
his Office at less cost to the taxpayers
than any of his predecessors. This
shows up the fallacy of the Increased
cost of living" argument used by the
"reformers." Mr.. Johnson attends
to the affairs of his Office and is con-
Quoting his Office economically, whereas
our reform" office-holders devote
more time to peanut politics than they
do to business, and the taxpayers are
obliged to stand the expense of their
mismanagement.
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1910-04-14

more permanent Improvements than
under the two stalwart terms which
preceded them. Let US look at the facts
in this matter. The average appropri-
atoms per year under the stalwart adj
ministrations were $772, 1873. "a, and tie
average expenditure for permanent
improvements per year was 1874, 598. 90,
which leaves the annual appropriation
$637, 740.64, not counting the permanent
improvements. Now let US look at the
reform" administration. The total
appropriations per year under Crawford
and Vessey are $l,27l, 25S.02, and the
amount used for permanent improve
ments $l76, 268.00, which leaves the
total appropriation, less the permanent
improvements, 81 1894, 5000 Do you
catch, dear reader, that this is an in
crease by the Performers" over the
annual appropriations of the stalwarts,
not counting the permanent improve
ments, of $457, 249.38, or u percent.
Thus, it will be seen that the reform
ers for permanent improvements have
increased the amount only 81 percent,
while for other purposes they have
made the wonderful raise of 72 percent.
1t is not very hard or difficult for the
average man and taxpayer to see that
the money which has been extorted in
the shape of taxes under the name of
reform" has not been expended in
building buildings for the deaf, dumb,
blind and insane of the state, nor has
it been spent in the schools of the state
nor in new buildings at the penal insti-
tutions, but it has been frittered away
supplying salaries, mileage and per
diem for useless offices created for
worthless politicians.
Further, the average annual state
tax under Herried and Elrod, stalwart,
was $687, 1854. From this deduct
1874, 598 for permanent improvements
and SOB, SCI. 70 levied to pay off bonds,
and the balance $449, 577.01 is left to be
raised in taxes for running the state.
Now look at the other side. The aver
age annual state tax under Crawford
and Vessey, insurgent, was $l,081 ,0O9.
Deduct therefrom $176, 26S for perma-
nent improvements and SS1, 1861 per
year for Irvine plant and you have $685.
294, 80 left to be raised in taxes for
running the state This is an increase
over the stalwart annual taxes for rum
ming the state of 1878, 717.81, or SO per-
cent.
The above statement where in it is
shown that it is costing the present
reform" administration SO percent
more to pay the running expenses of

Editor Bronson is trying to divert
the subject of our little discussion from
politics to matrimony. We won't
stand for it. Matrimonial discussions
are not in our line, and we would stand
no show in a discussion of that subject
with Editor Bronson, who could secure
a limitless fund of information upon
matrimony from that staunch friend
of the South Dakota "reformers' {,
Elder Smoot, the Mormon Senator from
Utah.

A straw vote is usually fair in
dication of public opinion. The one
taken on a train near Huron the
other day gave Taft six votes out
of fifty-seven cast for choice for
the next president. WATERFOWL
Public Opinion.
1t is needless to state that the da,
this straw vote was taken was the SAM
day that the insurgent republican lead
ers of South Dakota were enroute t
Huron for conference. Brother Bron
son was among them. We wonder nov
he voted.

They do tell that they have regular
insurrection in Beadle county. George
w. Wright has refused to recognize
that the 81 men who signed R. o. Rich
ards petition as candidate for state
senator are the whole people of Beadle
county and insists upon going into the
primaries opposing the boss of South
Dakota insurgency. Mr.. Wright need
expect no assistance from the cuckoo
press of the reform" element because
Richards will dictate who shall be insur-
ance commissioner should Governor
vessey again be elected as South Dako-
ta's executive. That was part of the
bargain made at Huron when Dick took
the management of the governors cam
paien, denied his own letters and open
ed his barrel.

George Egan, in the last issue of his
Sioux Falls Republican, conveys the
idea that perhaps |. D. Aldrich OF the
Big Stone Headlight was more inter-
ested in saving his job and perpetuating
himself in the office of the secretary OF
the Board of Regents than he was in
the welfare of South Dakota when he
gave out the boost for Governor Yes
sey. But such a thing could not be
possible. Aldrich never did like money.
