An exchange, with more assur-
ance than information, states that
fully ninety per cent of the farmers
of South Dakota are opposed to
President Taft. Such assertions
are easily made even though there
exists no foundation for them. W g
believe the farmers are not blind
to their own interests, and Why
should a farmer in South Dakota
be opposed to present conditions
We can see some excn,c for she
wage Garner to complain of The
high cost of living but high cost of
living tor the consumer means high
prices for the producer, and that
is just what the South Dakota
farmer is now getting The de
mand for change comes from the
consumer, and if any is made it
will inevitably be in The consumer
interest, so if the farmer is wise lp
will endeavor to hold fast to Nhal
he has.

The Lesterville Ledger thinks il
is inconsistent to support the com
mission form of municipal govern
ment and oppose the statewide pri.
mary. It says: Surely what is
good for city government ought
to be good for a county or state
government. If the statewide pri.
mary will eventually do away with
politics and party ties it will prove
great blessing to suffering hu-
manity."
We believe the Ledger misses q
very important point in this argu-
ment. The strength of the pri-
mary system is based upon the
supposition that the individual
voter personally knows the quail
fcations of the candidate for whom
he votes. In a municipal or coun-
ty election this may be possible,
but in = state wide election it is ut
terly impossible. The result is
that the voter, in most cases has
to vote blind Under a party form
of government the entire party is
held responsible for the faithful
fulfllment of its party pledges,
and there is mutual interest in
seeing that only fit candidates are
put in the field. Without party
organization no one is held res.
ponsible except the individual The
field is open for anyone and The
smooth scoundrel knows that, with
the lack of information that IL sure
to prevail among the voters regard
ing his character, be has al equal
show with the best candidate to
win. The primary is practical for
limited territories, and it may be
practical for the most prominent
Offices of a state or national govern
ment, but to extend it to all of the
minor Offices is a farce, and where
it has been tried the sentiment is
turning in favor of the short ballot.

Just such a shock as the rich
Mr. Carnegie administered
the other day. 1t has helped to
clear the atmosphere, and to give
stimulating flip to the spirit of in
dependence which has made this
country what it is. 1t has caused
the American people to wake up to
two important facts-frst, that
they ought to look out for their
own dignity in caring for their pub
lie servants, and, second, that
money is not everything. nor even
the greatest of things, in American
eyes.
The idea of having an ex-presi-
dent of the United States, or the
widow of an ex- president, made
comfortable for life by the bounty
of an ultra-rich individual is alb

The Song of the Rail
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

Copyright 1872 by American Journal Examiner.
nH, an ugly thing is an iron rail,
" Black with its face to the dust
But it carries message where winged things fail;
1t crosses the mountains, and catches the trail,
While the winds and the sea make sport of SAIL
Oh rail is friend to trust.
The iron rail, with its face to the sod,
Is only bar of ore;
Yet it speeds where never foot has trod;
And the narrow path where it leads grows broad /;
And it speaks to the world in the voice of Cod
That echoes from shore to shore.
Though the iron rail- on the earth down flung,
Seems kin to the loan and the soil,
Wherever its high shrill note is sung,
Out of the jungle fair homes have sprung,
And the voices of babel find one tongue,
In the common language of toll,
Of priest and warrior, and conquering king
Of Knights of the Holy Grail,
OF wonders of Winter, and glories of Spring,
Always and ever the poets sing
But the great God-force, in a lowly thing
| sing in my heart of the rail

Woman's Most Fascinating Age

N TISS MARY GARDEN, who is
vi generally conceded to know
thing or two, has an
nounced that 35 Is woman's most
attractive age, and that she never
means to go beyond It.
Many other women agree in this
opinion. It is, in fact, no uncom-
mon thing to find lady so enam-
ored of So that she stays that age
for % years at a stretch Indeed,
my favorlte story concerns a wom-
an who, when arrested for some
offense against the law and
brought to trial, gave her age as S5.
Five years later she was again
hailed into court before the same
judge, and again gave her age as
So.
But said the judge, when you
were brought here five years ago
you gave your age then as S5."
Very likely, Your Honor" re-
sponded the lady, I'm not the
sort of woman who would say
one thing one day and another
thing tomorrow"
But when is woman most at
tractive? 1t depends upon the wom-
an and the taste of the judge.
Heroines of the Past.
In times past mems fancies
seemed to have run to extreme
youth. Shakespeare made Juliet a
chit of fourteen. SCOTS heroines
range along about seventeen and
eighteen. The Melissas and Clar-
issas were all in the SQUAD class.
Sir Charles Surface and his fellow
gallants toasted the maiden Of
bashful sixteen"
We like them older now, and re-
gard it as the first evidence of
senile dementia for a man to ex-
hibit marked leaning toward the
kindergarten. To most of us no
other human being is so absolutely
uninteresting as a properly brought
up young girl who is too old to be
told fairy tales and too young to be
told anything else.
Undoubtedly. however, many
women are at their best in the
years between sixteen and twenty.
They have then the beauty and the
grace that all young animals pos
sess, whether they are kittens or
puppies, or humans. They have a
certain animation OF youth that

they felt that II was their duty to
pay the ransom and get their adored
royalty back again.
The story Of Richards reign is
anything but a delectable one.
Crowned in 1889, the original
Rough Rider began running
amuck at once. which practice he
faithfully kept up TO the last.
On the very day OF his corona
ton he gave the order which re-
suited in a 24-hour massacre of his
Jewish subjects, for no other rea-
son than the fact that they were
Jews.
With the blood OF his unofrend-
ing Jewish subjects still undried
on his coronation robes Richard be-
gan collecting money and men for
rescue of the Holy City from the
hands OF the "infidels."
We know how utterly fruitless
his Crusade turned out to be. and
how, after having perpetrated in
Vulnerable follies and brutalities, he
finally turned his face homeward
again, to be shipwrecl1ed on the
coast of Italy and, later on, cap
tured in the Gerpss forests.
Ransomed by his people. and re-
turning home, Richard spent the
rest OF his life--a period Of some
five years-tighting his worthless
brother John, who. il seems, had
designs on the throne.
Millions of English money and
thousands Of English lives were
sacrificed in this foolish struggle
struggle that was happily ended
by the arrow which. on the 9th az
April iis9, laid Richard low before

They Play Every Card.

At twenty-five a woman's beauty
is at it's best, her enthusiasms are
at full tide, she knows enough to
listen intelligently, and not enough
to make her opinionated. Above
all, she is ready to love and be
loved, and she is still plastic
enough to be nodded to the hand
of the man who gets her.
Thirty is the age at which the
fool woman Is impossible, the coll
lege woman at her best. and the
worldly woman most fascinating.
The silly woman, who was a
charming little goose at sixteen, has
developed into bore and a bundle
of heaviness by the time she is
thirty. The college bred woman,
who is late bloomer, has just come
into her own, and is q sensible. in
telligent companion for men who
like women served up with a gar
nish OF brains. Also they have
not yet developed mission in life,
as they are liable to later on, so
thirty is their most attractive age
AS for the worldly woman, at
thirty she is no longer an amateur
at the game of life. but a profess
sional who knows the value of every
card and how to play 1t. She has
learned how to make the most of
her charms, how to dress. and. more
valuable still. she has acquired the
art of playing upon the weaknesses
of men as upon a harp with a thou
sand strings. Any man who es-
capes from the woman of thirty who
has marked him for her own de-
serves a Carnegie hero medal, and
is entitled 70 the worlds sprinting
record.

years ago. King Richard the
First OF England. better known
as Richard the LION Hearted"
while making his way home from
the point where he had been ship
wrecked on the Adr4atic, was made
prisoner by the Duke Leopold of
Austria, and sold for q good round
sum to King Henry the Sixth Of
Germany.
1t was the richest prize that had
fallen to anybody for a long, long
time. We are not informed how
much Duke Leopold received from
Henry for the regal capture, but we
know that Henry made a mighty
good thing out of it, for in order to
get their king back the English
people had to pay the German mon
arch three hundred thousand
pounds in gold, or, reckoned in our
money, one million five hundred
thousand dollars.

Nside, It was a very foolish deal on

Hearted was not worth the price
that they paid SCR him Except as

left their king remain in Henry's
