Spring Valley pioneer started
years ago the so called Bargain

handicapped by poor health he
kept on growing both in wealth

best store in Hurley. A few
years ago he sold the store te

In the four cornered fight that
is being waged in this county
for the state senatorship it is
becoming every day more evi-
dent that that there can be no out
como other than the nomina-
ton of the Hon. e. FL. Odland.
Without in anyway disparaging
the other candidates the policy
|of Mr.. Odland, in standing on
his record and asking for sup
port from all who have conf
dence in his ability and integrity,
cannot fail but command the
respect of all. The people real
|ize that in him they will have a
senator who, will stand for every.
thing that is right and who has
the ability and courage to make
his support effective. From all
| over the county comes offers Of
support and the Herald cannot
lat present see any outcome but
his nomination By 3 large ma
-jority.

Since the state first began
paying bounties on wolves the
collection of the houlties has
been involved in supicicn Of
fraud. Recently suspicion be-
came reality and the county
auditor Of Fall River county has
resigned and is under arrest. In
the future it would be better to
leave the payment of such boun-
ties to the counties and the
temptation in the way of county
officials to secure easy money
will be removed. There was
never any necessity for these
bounties being paid out Of state
funds.

SEN ATOR GAMBLE


his second term in the senate
and is. asking for a third. He
was elected the first time as q
republican, second as a progress
sive republican and seeks a
third as a standpat republican.
Although nominally a pro
eressive he has during the past
five years every moment been d
dead weight to the progressive
cause. He has been the con-
stant butt of the jibes and sneers
Iof the stalwarts and most of the
points made against him could
not be refuted. If the progress
sive cause has lost any prestige
in the state it has been due to
the weight Of men like Gamble
more than to any other cause.
But now the battle lines have
shifted and it cannot be denied
| that today the stalwarts have
taken up his cause and are try
! ing TO return him to the senate.
Should they succeed they will
find themselves worse hampered
than were the progreSsives the
past five years. Gamble is some
what successful in getting pa
tronage and kindred special
favors for his friends and aside
from that he can do nothing. Ii
the stalwarts are taking him up
it cannot be for any reason save
patronage, unless o. possible de
sire to spite the progressivas
The leaders may we'll pause anC
ask themselves if support o1
Gamble now will put them III
position to demand the conf
dence of the voters of the state
in the future. We fail to SEE
how they can take him up with
out stultifying themselves ant
it pays to be honest, especially
in politics.
But the stalwarts may reply

lose the state to the progres
sives for it destroyed much pub

BILE worth so much to the staI
warts? In this matter the Her
aid has but one interest and tina
is the good of South Dakota. S.
far as factional lines are cor
cerned the Herald is about as ir
dependent as a paper can be
We feel that it is almost q dis
grace for Gamble to be returne

those of the stalwarts who cor

The question oft asked since
the sinking of the Titanic has
answered by the Scientific
American. The Titanic is at
the bottom of the sea. The
pressure under water increases
enormously with depth but
water congresses very little and
its density at the bottom is not
much greater than at the top.
Any weight that would sink in
shallow water would go clear to
the bottom of the deepest ocean.
