Minnesota, Wisconsin or Micbigan---Which
Will Be Middle West Champions This Year?

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 22.-Min-
nesota football fans are again re-
GREETING that they are not meet
Ing Michigan this year. With
Minnesota and Wisconsin tied for
the conference championship the
local men feel that this year they
could have wiped out a lot of old
scores with Yost's men.
The game last year-which
Michigan won-was the first be-
tween the two schools since 1908.
The middle west championship
must always be uncertain as long
as the Ann Arbor men do not
meet Minnesota. Wisconsin or Chi
cago.
Both Minnesota and Wisconsin
stand easily ahead of the other
big Eight" schools this year.
Comparative scores as from the
Chicago-Cornell, Mich,san-Cornell
and Minnesota-C hicaSo games.
and from the Michigan-Nebrasxa
contest on Thanksgiving and thu
Minnesota-Nebraska game two
weeks ago give pretty good line
on the teams.
However, Michigan has been
getting stronger with each game,
and Michigan-Minuosota match
this year would be worth seeing.
BY GEORGE A. BARTON. +
Minnesota is stronger than at
any time since the now style of
play went into effect. They have
the forward pass, onside kick,
double and direct pass down to
scientific standpoint. Minnesota
has four great field kickers. Smith
and Capt. Pickering are place
kickers, while Babe" Morrell and
Ralph Capron are drop-kickers
and any one of them can make
good in a pinch. Smith kicked
two field goals against Chicago.
and Morrell one.
Capron, quarterback, is the
sensation Of the season. His work
has been the feature of every
game to date. In every
game this youngster has made
runs ranging from 10 to 80 yards.
He Is regarded as an equal, IL not
better, than Walter Eckersall.
Rosenwad, All-Western half
back, last year, will make the
same position this season.
Eastern and western critics
who have seen Capt. Pickering say
he should be put on the ALL

municipalities were & anted spe la
charters under which they arr an geo
their local government. These char
ters covered every phase OF local S J.
government applicable to the times
Since the admission of the territory
to the union as a state, n cities and
towns have gradually cast aside their
old territorial charters until today but
two cities in South Dakota remain
which still use the instruments OF
owe a score of years ago. These two
cities are Watertown and Yankton.
Among the privileges granted under
the special charters which are used
today by these two cities, is that OF
local option on the liquor question.
The question has been raised by at
torneys as to whether or not the day
light saloon bill, passed by the senate
yesterday, can be made applicable to
these cities. The constitution of :he
state makes it plainly understood That
no municipal corporation shall be
granted any powers not applicable to
any other corporation. Many lawyers
hold that this provision would in
validate that section Of a special char
ter relating to the privilege of local
option, but it is admitted there is a
question about it. In any event it Is
not beyond the range of possibility
that the courts will be called upon to
settle this problem in the lear future.

The Nepanrd Primary

Representative Negaard's primary
bill Oh. B. No. 230 is in many re
srects similar to the Richards prOpO-
sition. But it also contains some
features that were doubtless never
conceived in the mind of mortal man
before.
One is that the newspapers OF 4
county shall compete at the June pri-
mary for the position of official paper
OF the county. The paper winning out
by vote of the people will have all
the county printing, but regardless OF
location, the favored paper must come
out Of and bear the name of the coun-
ty seat. Provision is also made that
no newspaper shall expend a sum to
exceed 5000 for campaign evp nses.
This latter notation was hardly neCes
Sary.
Another feature is that any party
getting a five per cent vote Is entitled
to one delegate in either branch of tho
legislature. He is to receive the same
salary as q member and to be selected
by the committee Of his party. His
authority would be limited to the in
PRODUCTION of not nor than two bills
and the. privilege of speech in the
chamber but he could not vote.

Pierre-The daylight saloon bill
setting the closing hour of all saloons
in the state at 9 o'clock each evening
passed the senate today by the de,
cisivc vote of 80 to IL. It carries the
emergency clause, and will become a
law as Don as Governor r. s. Vessey
attaches his signature.
An effort was made by Wyman to
strike out the emergency clause, he
Contending that a license with a man
who is at present engaged in the sa-
not be violated. Collins and LOckhart
spoke in favor of the emergency clause
Those who opposed the bill did not
put up a very strong fight because
they could plainly see that the large
majority of the upper house was IN
favor of the bill.
That the governor will sign the bill
within q short time is almost a GER
tainty.
BY a vote of 80 to il the senate yes
teTday adopted the majority report OF
the temperance committee on the
Daylight saloon bill. The report OF
the minority favoring a ten o'clock
closing and what is now known as
the Glassner amendment, providing
for the closing time ID be determined
by local option were voted down.
Senators Collins and Fleeger were
the defenders of the majority report
on the floor. The latter made a strong
address but the former spoiled the eff
feet of his own talk by getting miXeu
on county and local option, and thus
argued inadvertently against his own
proposition. Senator Candy made a
brilliant address in favor of the OPP
tional closing ~feaure, but the final
vote showed an easy victory for the
measure as it stands.
Early in the session petitions
against the Daylight saloon biz from
st. Onge, Sturgis, Lead, Whitewood,
Spearfish and Belle Fourche were read.
Following is the vote in the senate
on the daylight saloon bill:

An Attorneys Opinion

Sioux Falls-An attorney OF this
city, who has given some considerable
attention to the legislative measure
known as the Daylight saloon bill
which provides for the closing of sa-
looms in South Dakota at 8 o'clock at
night, said:
Il have no doubt that the governor
will sign it."
Il do not believe. however, that the
legislature has the power to vitiate
contracts and that will be in my op d
ion, just what the enforcement OF this
law, IL the bill is signed, will have
a tendency to do.
In my opinion the holder OF every
license to sell liquor in this state, is
selling liquor under a contract with
South Dakota and that contract holds
good until the first day of July, nexI,
the end of the term to which present
licenses are effective.
II do not think the legislature has
a right to order the state to vitiate
cont acts and therefor | think the
emergency clause will prove ineffec-
tive.
I'VE shall not have long to wait, in
order to discover Just what view the
courts will take of that phase of the
question, / think, because the authori-
ties of some one of the cities having
licensed saloons, in this state, viii

The retail liquor dealers of the
state have entered into a contract with

legally. until the first day OF July next,
and the state cannot violate that con

more than the saloon man could legal
