PLANS RAILROAD TO
KEEP COUNTY SEAT
FROM ITS RIVALS
Town of OIivet Pro-
poses Five Mile
PARKSTON ACTIVE
Feared Another Contest Will
be Brought on Next
ACTIVE

Pierre. 5. D.-To build Il railroad
TO hold county seat, is one way OF
houlaing to such d privilege, but
that is the proposal for Hutchinson
county farmers inth e vicinity of
Olivel. h'ra, place was selected as
the county seat forty years ago, be-
fore Il railroad existed in that part
OF the state. and since that time the
railroad development has been
aroun the edges OF that county. and
Olivet was not on the list. Several
ambitious railway towns have been
looking with longing eyes at the ia
vor held by Olvet, and in the cam
paign of 1908 Parkston attempted.
to secure the prize but failed on ac-
count wlocal jealousy, They then
came TO the legislature and secured
an act allowing terms of court to be
held at ParkSton. and that lasted
until the next session, when it was
repealed. Under the constitution,
another contest can be had next
year. and TO head Oft such act, a
five mile line OF private railroad is TO
be built from Tuscan to Olivet. With
sLeh Il line, i; will require a two
thirds vote TO take the honor from
Olivet, and it is not at all likely that
any other town in the county can Sc
cure that many votes.

LOSES OUT
IN MASSACHUSETTS
GOVERNORS COUNCIL REJECTS
Ills APPOINTMENT AS KAlI.
WAY COMMISSIONER FOR
STATE.

Boston, Mass.-The objections to
the appointment by Governor Foss
of President Garrett Droppers OF
Williams college formerly president
of the University of South Dakota,
as a member OF the Massachusetts
railway commission were sustained
today by the governors council by
a vote OF : to /. his lone supporter
being John Quinn the only democrat
ic member OF the counsel.
Those objecting to Professor Drop
pers claimed he was forced to resign
from his South Dakota office because
the attendance Of the university fell
off. \ letter was read from a regent
of that university upholding other
charges but two days later Il des-
patch was received from South Da-
kota claiming that no such letter had
been sent.
One OF the strongest objectors tc
Professor Droppers was Charles
Francis Adams. second treasurer OF
Harvard college who said he had
served on Il commission with Profes-
sor Droppers and that the latter was
totally unfit to hold office because OF
his lack of fairness and that it would
be a public calamity for him to serve
on the railroad commission.
Letters from men in Massachu-
sets, New York, Chicago and South
Dakota who know Professor Droppe1s
intimately were presented TO the
council during the consideration o.
his name For the most part these
letters expressed indignation at The
charges made against Professor Drop
pers by Mr. Adams and endorsed hin
as Il man OF ability, independent ant
OF highest integrity.

IT'S A POOR SHOWING.

Why is it that France, with con-
gested population and limitations,
is richer than America with its vast
natural resources? One would ex-
pect the exploitation of our great
natural wealth to put this country
far in the lead, yet the reverse is
true, according to facts given by a
writer in Moody's Magazine. The
figures are quite interesting, to say
the least.
Paris is the mecca of foreigners,
he declares. They come from all parts
of the world to enjoy life in the
great metropolis, and the yearly in
come from this source alone approx
mates 100000 900. Along with
this item the earnings of French in
vestments in the securities and prop
critics Of other countries amounts to
fully $250,O0O,O0O yearly. On the
other side of the account is an ad-
verse balance of trade, which in
1907 amounted to $12O,OO0,OO0.
Deduct this outgo from her income
of $850,O00 900 and it leaves France
with $730,O00,OO0 to the good.
Instead OF getting an income of
$6OO,OOO,OOO from foreign tourists
the United States pays out at least
$15O,OOO,OOO fer the expenses Of
American tourists abroad. Again,
instead of drawing $250,000,O00
yearly from foreign investors this
country pays out $300,O00,OO0 to
foreign investors in our securities
and properties. A third factor is
the army of aliens who flock here
from ali parts of the world to hoard
up money, which they take back to
their own countries. This drain costs
us 300,000,0O0 more.

Is Clark Howell out feeling the
pulse of the people for the United
States senatorship? He has been
leisurely travelling over the state
in an automobile and speaking to
the people on his route. Or is he
out for his health?-Cairo Prog

The News has no idea that Mr..
Howell has senatorial aspirations,
and there is in all probability moth

over the state" than enjoyment OF
the balmy atmosphere of South Geor-

ell in Savannah.
But whatever he lis out for" he
Is a distinguished Georgian who hae
rendered his state and people valua-
Bile service both as the editor of a
great newspaper and as a public off
cial, and it is but natural that the
people wherever he stops have a de.
