PEACE AND WAR

Aberdeen American: In October
the international peace congress is to
be held in Rome. Italy to celebrate
the event and give the delegates some
real work has declared war upon
Turkey.
1t is all,about a territorial dispute
over land in Africa and nothing more
vital than jealously over the en-
croachments of the other is at stake.
The powers Of Europe may be able
to stop the fuss but not likely because
each is afraid the other would bene-
fit. Here at last is one peace con-
gress with q war to work on.

coYNE GATHERING CRIMINALS

G. e. Coyne, sheriff of Stanley
county, went to the Pine Ridge reser-
vation last week and captured and
brought to Fort Piarre. Philn
Stephens, who has been wanted in
Stanley county for more than two
years. Stephens was bound over on
a charge of cattle rustling. and gave
bond, but failed to show up at the
term of court in which he was to an
swer. Ever since that time he has
been playing hide and seek with the
officers in the breaks along White
river in the southwestern part of that
county. Several times he has been
in the custody of constables, but has
always been able to make his get
away. the last time being only a few
weeks ago, Wien he escaped from the
local lookup at Kadoka, and at once
made for the reservation. Sheriff
Coyne was on his way to Kadoka to
secure Stephens at the time he broke
Jail, and soon had him located near
Cut Meat, on the reservation, and
going out to that point, brought him
in, and he is being held for hearing
in the term of court next month.

PLAN TO HARNESS MISSOURI


The counties directly interested |
how have provided the funds to make
preliminary investigation in con-
nection with one of the greatest and
most important irrigation and power
projects in the history of the north
west.
The projects contemplates the har-
Messing of the Missouri river, that
mighty and heretofore uncontrolla
stream, and the development of thou
sands of horsepower and the furnish
ing of power for the pumping of water
over n wide territory for irrigation
purposes.
The estimated cost of carrying the
project to successful conclusion
ranges from s., ,ooo,0 900 to SO, 600, 900.
Money for making the preliminary
investigation has been provided by
the boards of county commissioners
of the counties of Hughes, Sully and
Stanley, situated on the Missouri
river in the north central part OF
South Dakota. Engineers of nation
al reputation will be engaged at once
to make surveys and ascertain the
feasibility of the plan to harness the
waters of the Big Muddy
The Missouri river, whore it flows
along the shores of the three counties
makes a gigantic loop, which is
known as the Little Bend OF the Mis-.
souri,. The stream makes a wide
sweep of thirty OR forty miles and
then doubles back upon itself, sweep
ing southwark after making the loop
and leaving only comparatively
narrow neck of land between where
it commences to make the loop aud
the point where it again flows in a
general southerly direction. The
meek" is only $500 yards across.
In making the loop there is a fall
OF ;ee g feet from ths point wiiisrs The The
river commences to make the loop to
the point where the loop is completed
and the river again flows south ward .
1t is this fall which is expected to
provide power for irrigation and
other purposes.
BY exchanging the $500 yards
across the neck the Missouri rivers
$1,000, 900 cubic feet per minute flow
age at low water stage can be utilized.
1t is estimated that the low water
howage will provide $4,000 horse
power, which can be increased at
high water to not less than 100, 900
horsepower.
The canal across the neck will be
provided with dams and locks in
order to take advantage of the great
power to the utmost. Congress will
be asked to enact such legislation as
may be necessary to permit the con
struction of the canal and the dams
and locks.
| 1t is practically certain that the
power plant at the Little Bend will
| furnish electric power sufficient to
proyide water in quantities to supply
most, if not all, of the great territory
embraced within the three counties
With an abundance of water thus
assured for all periods of the grow
ing season the three counties will be-
come the garden spots of the north
west, and the increased production
might in single season nearly pay
the cost OF constructing the power
plant at the Little Bend.

The necessity of supporting LaFol-
lette for the presidency was repre-
sented as political rather than other
wise. The president in his Massa-
chusetts speech had questioned the
sincerity of the progressive republi-
cans. This compels them to choose
between a fight for progressive
republican in the national convention
or surrender of their identity. The
president meanwhile justifies his rec
ord by the fact that he has found his
par artyy divided between .s.esalaarss,, .es
and insurgents with the 'sregu-
lars' in the majority, and that he
must work with his party as he finds
it, recognizing neither faction to the
exclusion of the other. He appar-
emily has gone still farther than this
and considered the majority faction
as the one entitled to the more con-
sideration. From the standpoint of
the progressive republicans, this is
an impossible policy, for, as Senator
Crawford put it yesterday, they see
the president trying to accomplish
progressive legislation with the as
sistance Of those who are unalterably
opposed to such measures.

AN EXHIBITION OF HARMONY

Mitchell Republican: Despite all
predictions Of serious conflict be-
tween rival supporters of Senator La
Toilette in South Dakota, the con-
ference held in this city by the fol-
lowers of the Wisconsin senator
proved to be an exceedingly har-
monious affair. Not discordant note
was heard at either of the two meet
ings. The Huron meeting was recog-
nized to the extent of including the
campaign committee of five named
there in the campaign committee of
ten. named here Further the aelec-s
tion of president and secretary
for that committee by the Huron con-
ference was allowed to stand. Thus
it is clear that spirit of conciliation
as between friends of LaFollette AMI
mated the proceedings in Mitchell.
The conference was we'll attended by
representative progressive republi-
cans from all parts of the state.
While the enthusiasm was not az
marked as it would have been with
such standard bearer as Roosevelt,
there seemed to be general accord
that LaFollette should have the sup
port of South Dakota in the next
national republican convention.
The principal speakers, Senator
Crawford and Governor Vessey,
made it clear that they had no in.
tention of carrying the fight outside
the republican party. 1t was declar-
ed emphatically that the regular
nominee OF the national convention
would receive their support. Sena-
tor Crawford in particular presented
his reason for believing that the
democratic party does not offer a
promising medium through which to
| establish the principles for which the
progressive republicans are contend
