questions are discussed fairly and in
t%elligently. This does not prevent the
editor from giving voice to his own
views in the editorial columns or
pouring hot shot into those whom he
regards as his political enemies. The
columns, however, should be inn
partial"
Naturally, the party to which the
editor belongs occupies more space IN
his columns than that devoted to the
other parties, but this is no violation
of the principle enunciated above.
The hide-bound, rabid newspaper
has no place in the world of today.
The source OF all wisdom does not
lie in editorial sanctums alone as was
formerly believed. The people are
studying political problems for them
selves. They are doing their W
thinking and do not blindly follow
party leaders. This is a hopeful sign,
and indicates that the world is grow
ing better. The millennium is not here
yet, but it's approach Is indicated by
the increased interest shown by intel
ligent voters in the political affairs of
the Observation-Disclosures Auxiliary.

PRINT ALL THE NEWS

The American public Of today ex-
poets a fair deal from the newspapers
in politics, as well as in general news.
Editors who do not, print the real
news cannot expect to retain the con-
fidence OF their readers for any length
OF time. A paper can be partisan, but
that is no reason why it should not be
fair.
The New York Sun printed in full
the speech Mr.. Roosevelt delivered at
the Bull Moose convention-not be-
cause it Endorsed the sentiments OF
the speaker, but because OF a desire to
give its readers an opportunity to read
Mr.. R~oosevelt's views as delivered on
this important occasion.
Commenting on this departure
among newspapers from the rabid par
tisanship displayed not many years
ago the editor and publisher says:

BYRNE WINS

Frank NJ. Byrne of Faulkton, was
last week elected governor of South
Dakota, the late returns giving him a
substantial lead. Official figures from
all the counties place the Byrne lead
at 1872. The Roosevelt lead on the
same figures is 9,507.
The vote shows that there were
$500 more votes cast for the office Of
governor than for president on the
two leading tickets, showing that a
number who voted for governor failed
to vote for president.
The next legislative session will
start with twenty-three out of forty
five members of the senate as old
members of that body, while the
house will open with thirty
five out Of 100 who had been
through the legislative mill either in
the lost session or at some former
session. This gives each house a
working body familiar with procedure,
and will help start things smoothly.
From all which can be learned, the
two men who will be prominent as
candidates for the speokership will be
Morris, of Sphinx, and Stoddard, of
Turner the first a lawyer and the lat
ter a farmer. Both have been members
and are coming back with ambition to
be leaders of the house, and they will
make a warm contest. 1t is probable
that other candidates will appear be-
fore the session opens, but these two
anticipated the results of the election
and have been getting their Lines
out" for some time.
While it is apparent that the Rich
ards primary law has been carried by
a large majority, the opponents to the
workings of that law are already talk
ing OF attempting to amend it, or
absolutely repeating it, at the coming
legislative session.
That the good roads propaganda has
gained ground in the state in the
past two years is shown by the fact
that every county which voted on the
referendum on hat law, carried it by
a large majority, after holding it up
Two years. marking time on road con.
struction, while the counties which
did not refer the law have been going
ahead. The good roads enthusiasts
are not yet satisfied with the road law
OF the state, which is a compromise,
and will ask for several amendments
at the coming session.

Bruce helped receive. A program of

guest receiving a German postcard

son certainly helped to make the even

German fashion with a centerpiece of

joyed and later a dainty luncheon was
served.
Birthday Party-On Saturday after
noon a number Of young friends were
invited in to help Miss Lucille Marvin
celebrate her eighth birthday. A
merry season of games was INDUCED
in, and the fun reached its climax in
a fine lunch served BY the mother.
Many pretty membranes were
brought by the guests.
Surprise Party-On Tuesday even
ing fifteen friends Of Lester Erb's took
him by surprise to remind him of his
fifteenth birthday. A most enjoyable
time was spent in various games and
lively conversation, and at a late hour
Mrs. Erb and daughter served a fine
lunch, the girls bringing part of it. A
box of candy was brought as a re-
membrance by the boys.
Five O'clock Tea-Last evening
Misses Winifred Catlett and Alta Fur
nish entertained most royalty about
thirty of their friends. The tables
looked beautiful with smilax and red
flowers. The elaborate dinner was
served in three courses by three little
girls-Verna Sexauer, Lyndall White
head, and Pearl Ziegler. A pleasant
social hour was spent afterwards.

The purchase by the Council
of the Chargois property on Yer
million street for a fire station
and other purposes, was a good
move. The location is the most
available left and very desirable
because of its being central.
Chief Schmueln of the Fire De-
partment has been very active
in trying to secure a site for a
ERE station and it is largely due
to his efforts that the matter
was taken up and consummated
q this time. A lot for a fire
station is urgently needed now
and it is only a question of a
short time before a public mar
ket and a city hall combined will
be needed. When tht time ar
rives the wisdom of the present
purchase will be fully realized.
