Aberdeen News Gives Reasons Why
Hon. G. II. Burke Should
Be Reelected.
Lone Public Life Makes His Services
of Great Fenefit TO People
of the State.
His Place on Important Committees
Cannot Be Acquired by a
New Man.

The News believes the republi-
can voters of the Second congress
ional district Will return a major
ity f-r Representative Charles h..
Burke at the June primaries, pro-
pOrti0nately V as la ge as that given
him by the state at large in the
primaries of June, 1910. Mr.
Burke's qualifications for the posi-
tion he has filed so acceptably for
the past twelve years are so gen.
orally known that the only ques-
tion regarding his nomina ion is
the size Of his majority.
Western states, until recent
years, have not used good busi-
ness judgment in the selection of
their representatives in congress.
A business man who has an eff
cient and industrious employe does
not dismiss him for trivial cause,
or none at all, Whenever a Lew
applicant for the place, full OF
specious promises to perform the
duties Of he position more capa-
bly,, asks for the place. The bus
mess man realizes that experience
counts for much, and acquaint-
anceship counts for much, and
does not readily dispense with the
services of man who has made
geodn for new and untried en-
ploye.
Many western states, in select
ing their senators and representa-
tives, however, worked on a diff
ferent theory. They have changed
representatives frequently. AT one
time, in Nebraska, it was the GUS
tom to elect a man to congress,
and if he made a fairly good rep
resentative, to give him a second
term as a sort of reward Of merit -
but the Nebraskans were as firmly
opposed co third term for q con-
gresham as William Jennings
B van 10 opposed to a third term
for TheodJre r oSevelt The east
ern states knew better than to
follow the practice of the west.
When they found a good man,

the remainder OF the Standing
Rock and Cheyenne River reserva-
tiOns, as the matter now stands,
bills have passed the senate for the
Orening of both reservations, but
as yet have not passed the house
OF representatives. 1t has Eeen
quite thoroughly impressed on the
national lawmakers that these res
ervatlonS should be opened to set
tlement, and it is almost certain
that there will not be much oppO-
slt!on to the bills in the house, and
that President Taft will approve
and sign them upon their passage
The appraisement will likely be
made next sammer ard the regis
and drawing will take place in the
fall. This will give the n law home
steaders an opportunity to take
possession of their claims in the
spring Of 1913.
The opening of these reserva-
tiOns will mean much to Mobridge
in particular and this part Of the
state in general. The portion of
the Standing Rock to be opened is
just across the Mis- jouri river flom
this city, and some CT the very
richest farming lands in the state
are to be found in the territory in
question. With a good growing
season next summer the registra.
ton for these lands in the fall will
be exceptionally heavy and will
result in much benefit to this sec.
ton Of South Dakota, inasmuch
as it will bring thousands and
thousands Of people here for the
registration. While they will not
all ,iraw claims, they will have al
opportunity to see the country and
witness with their own eyes the
great advantages to be derived
here as compared with conditions
in the east.
1t is sincerely hoped by al the
residents of northwestern South
Dakota that the measures will pass
the house this session aud become
effective in ample time to allow of
the fling on these lands in the
spring Of 1913.

they kept him in congress year af-
ter year, term after term, for TWEEN
ty, twenty-five, thirty years. The
business Of congress is c0ndCcted
almost entirely by committees.
Committee assignments are based
on seniority Of membership. a
new congressman is given the most
undesirable aud least influential
committee places, and has to work
his way up The older members
have the choice plums, the places
where they are be t situated to
serve tie interests Of their cOnStit-
uents. OF recent years, however,
the newer states have taken o hint
from the practice Of the older
states, and as Il conSeq' ence, 1t is
u comparatively rare occurrence
that q senator or representative
who gives reasonably good service,
and looks after the interests Of his
constituents with reasonable de-
gree of diligence, is defeated for
reelection.
South Dakota has been an eX-
ceptiOu to most western states In
the manner in which it has con-
tinued to return its representatives
to congress. In 1906, it is true,
the voters tried the experiment
formerly so common in other west
ern statee and re ired Representa-
tives Burke and Martin for two
new men, untried in national leg
islation, but they hastened to turn
back to their former tried and true
servants at the first opportunity.
Representative Burke, by reason
o. his long service and Of his fine
ability, has reached an enviable
place in the council of the law
makers of the nation. In the last
congress, Mr.. Burke was chairman
of the committee on Indian affairs,
one of the very important house
committees, and especially import
ant to South dakota. In the
present congress, with. its demo-
cratic majority, Mr.. Burke is the
ranking republican member of the
committee.
The News hasn't the fairtest
suspicion that the voters of the
Second district lave any inten, ion
of repeating the folly the state at
large was guilty of only sin years
ago.-Aberdeen News.

BAD FIRE AT
MORRISTOWN
Total Losses in CONFEDERATION Az.
Gre6ate Sixty Thousand
Dollars.

Mcrristown, Feb. 6.-Fire btoke
out on Main street at Morristown
about II a. m. Sunday, and be-
fore the flames could be controlled
Il block Of business houses were
laid n ashes. The fire had its or
lgin in the office building occupied
by the Miner Lai d Company,
probably from the explosion of the
stove. Parties occupying the rear
room were still in bed at tie time
and barely had time to make their
exit.
The flames were soon in rosses-
sion of the building, spreading
onto the adjoining etOres rapidly.
The limited fire fighting apparatus
was unequal to the demand and an
appeal for hep was sent to Lem
mon and Mcintosh. Snow in the
cuts prevented the relief from max
ing good time and it was 2:I5 be-
fore the Mcintosh department ar
rived and 2:30 when the Lennon
department with two chemicals
came. With united forces a des-
perate effort was made to stay the
flames. but this proved unavailine
until a gap in the line of buildings
was reached At 5 p. m. the
flames were under control, after
some eight business places and
several store houses and residences
had been incinerated. The fol-
lowing are the sufferers and their
approximate losses.
First National Bank, total loss
Of building and fixtures, 500
j. Peter P. Healy, law Office, to-
tai loss, $50J; Miner Land Com
pany, total loss, $500; E. j.
Craig's general store and contents,

store and building, loss Sc, 900:
Morristowr Bazaar, loss $l2, 900;

900; Henry Leathart's barbe"
shop, loss ST., 800; E. j. Craig
residence, ST, 500; office building,
Craig's, 81 900.
All the buildings were frame ex-
cept the bank building, which was
set afiame when the Foot building
toppled over on its roof.
The insurance will barely cover
half the loss. The fire is a serious
blow to the thriving little town.

fRetires and Makes $85, 900 a Year on Poultry
THIS CHICK FARM A MINT

There's no money in the chicken bust
ness"
That old wall has been sprung so often
that a lot of folks believe it. And then
along comes somebody like William Barry
owen and proves it false.
Last year the owen farm, at Vineyard
Haven, Mass, did $4,000 business.
That was gross, OF course, but they were
selling birds at from 800 to $500 each in
many cases. and when sales of that sort
are being made gross and net are as far
apart that you can't tell one from the
other.
Just to prove that the $4,000 bust
ness was founded on real chickens the
owen farm has sent one solid car load
to Atlanta and they are on exhibit and in
competition at the Georgia Poultry asso-
citation show at the Auditorium Armory.
In charge of the chickens is NJ. f. De-
lano, sales manager of the farm and no
doubt the highest salaried man in the
chicken business in America today.
Mr. Deano's job is to show you chick
ens-and, if you don't watch him closely,
to sell EN- to you. too, for that's why
he gets that big salary. He can do it.
Formerly Photograph Salesman.
And as for having chickens to sell
well, you nave 10 look lHeiH over dI lue
show to get an idea.
The Owen farm. showing now for the
first time in Atlanta, is without doubt
the most amazing poultry farm in the
world. 1t was founded by William owen,
who is some wonder himself.
Early in the days of the photograph
business, Mr.. owen, then an unknown,
was sent to England as foreign sales
manager for the Victor talking machine.
Under his management the business grew
magically, and with leaps and bounds the
money poured in.
Perhaps Mr. owens greatest claim on
fame lies In the fact that he was the dis
coverer of the now famous painting, His
Masters Voice." known around the globe.
The truth is that this picture was painted
with an idea of selling it to another talk
ing machine company. But this COM
pany did not see anything wonderful in
It, and while it really intended to buy,
it, took it's own time. The artist in dis
gust, sought out Mr.. Owen and showed
him the picture. Ten minutes later 1t
changed hands.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-10-29

It was at once' worked up in the ad-
vertising of the company and It did more
toward the Victors selling campaign
than any work of art ever did before or
ever has done since in any selling cam
paign. 1t has been used a thousand
times in caricatures, it has been the sub
ject Of funny paper and vaudeville jokes
and It made the reputation of William
Barry owen 1t proved him a man with
the quickness of mind necessary to recog-
nize a real opportunity when 1t came his
way.
Retired Only to Find Fortune.
Eight years ago Mr.. Owen retired. He
had more money than he could possibly
spend. SO he quit work. But having
been an active man all his life, he de-
cided that he must have some occupation.
Having been a chicken fancier at heart
since a boy he was not long in deciding
on the poultry business as one that at
tracted him. SO he went to his boyhood
home at Vineyard Haven, Mass, on the
island of Marthas Vineyard, and there
he established a poultry farm the like
of which no man ever saw before. 1t is
not a farm noted especially for it's build
ings and it's equipment. 1t has won it's
fame for chickens.
original stock and the result has been
the developing @of some strains of chick
ems that have heralded the name of
Owens farm around the world.
Last year the Owen farm made a
showing in New York that netted it more
prizes than one exhibitor ever had won
before. The result was the $4,000 bust
ness last year.
This year 5000 chickens were Matched
and raised on owens farm and 5000 on
adjoining farms for Mr. Owen. Gradually
the number is being Increased and stead
lily the quality is being improved.
To the small poultry breeders there is
lesson in the success of Owens farm
1t may be reasoned by them that the sue
cess came because there was nothing
but money behind it. The truth is that
the success came by the following of sim
pie business methods that anybody can
follow on a small scale. The success
came because the best foundation stock
was purchased, because amending work
was done to keep the fowls in the best
possible condition and because the bust
ness was administered with intelligence
Anybody can succeed with chickens
along just those lines.
