TO RULE A YOUNG REPUBLIC

From hungry newsboy on the
streets OF Washington to the presiden-
cy of the youngest republic in the
world is the remarkable record OF
Dick Ferris Of Los Angeles. Coinci-
dentally with the revolution In Mexico
headed by Madero there broke out
revolt against Mexican authority In
Lower California and one OF those who
encouraged 1t and helped to finance 1t
was Ferris A flibustering expedition
fitted out by Ferris left San Francisco
for Lower California and without
much OF struggle the weakened au-
thority OF Mexico was overthrown and
the republic OF Lower California ere
ated. OF this new republic Ferris has
been elected president
Ferris was "newsy" on the streets
of Washington twenty years ago and
found the battle of life a hard one
One cold night after he had sold a pa
per or two on a street car he was in
jured while stepping off and one OF
his arms was broken. One Of those

to the promise of the republican,

delegation stood for the Pavne- Aidrich

our entire congressional delegation is
lined up against the declaration of
republican principles, but, unlike the
first situation, the delegation is com7
nended by our people instead OF con-
deufed In the first instance the
will Sf the constituents was absolute
lygdisregarded, in the second instance
the republican doctrine is completely
ignored and the will of the con-
stituents apparently governs the
action of the delegation. The record
inthe reciprocity natterwilI be used

The Minneapolis authorities have
the night idea when it comes to pro-
tecting their own citizens and visitors
to that city during their civil ceiebra-
ton week. They have arranged with
chiefs of police of all the middle west
cities to furnish detectives for duty
in Minneapolis for that week. By so
doing Minneapolis will have officers
who know every professional crook IN

THE TEST COMING.

Aprotest has gone up from Aber,
deem because he state board of re-
gents has decided to restrict thet
Aberdeen Industriai and AaeIF-rfii,;sstt AAaieIF-rfiist
school to the field originally designed
when the school was established, and
to keepit outof college and university
work. Objection is being made from
Aberdeen because the regents did not
take this action 'as the time thei
Legislature was in session" which
means that the friends of that school
intend to appeal to the Legislature to-
overcome the ruling ofthestat board
of regents.
The people and taxpayers of South
Dakota should understand exactly
what this means. Ii means another
college for them to support. if the
Aberdeen people have their way. The
Aberdeen normal was started as al
normal; nowan effort is being nadeioi
change it iutoa university Should Should
this succeed, he school will demand
increased appropriations, more build
ings and an enlarged faculty, and thei
state university, and the state college
a Bookings, as we'll as the denomina-
tioDal colleges in this state, now
struggling 10 get more students, will
bs thrown into competition With
another college. maintained at state
expense In other words we spend
thousands of dollars at Vermillion to
build up college and then spend
other thousands at Aberdeen to build
up another 10 compete with it.
If we are to ever have great uni
yer ity in South Dakota. we viii not
get it this way Wisconsin has built
up n great university not by scattering
it's SHOT out but by centering it. The
same is true OF Nebraska. Minnesot., !,
and Missouri liz we are to make a.
college out of the Aberdeen normal,
The Madison normal can reasonably
make similar demand Then the
Springfield and Spearhsh normais;
may ask for the addition OF a college,
course and we will have four more
colleges, run at state expense and
dividing up the college student body
to such extent that NO college, can
really grow as it should. Just where
the taxpayers will land on this sort of
plan they ought easily to be able to-
figure out. Bittercompiaint has been
made about the establishment of sol
many state institutions, and now
comes a fight to practically establish
one more.
This newspaper believes that the
position taken by the state hoard OIL
regents is the correct one, aud that itl
should be supported by the people of
the st;itea Ifitis not, the axpavers
will pay the penalty in nnthe expendi-
ture of manp hundreds OF thousands
