RATES. LONG pRoH1B1TIvE

Sioux Falls Journal: The state rail-
road commission now has the opportun.
ity to put eastern South Dakota in
touch with some of the fruit Of the
Black Hills, likewise make it possible
to get true cord of pine kindling at
less than $l2 per cord. THERE'S enough
pine going to waate in the Black Hills
to supply all of eastern South Drkota
with kindling for years to come. Rail-
roads have made it impossible to get
that kindling by reason of excessive
freight rates. For the same cause they
have prevented this section Of the state
from utilizing the excess Of frnit raised
in the Black H llH. and which has been
allowed to rot on the ground, because
the railroads made prohibited freight
rates, The decision Of the United States
supreme court places within the hands
Of the State railway commission power
to make such rates 40 will put the sur
plus products Of the Black Hills within
reach Of this section Of the state. and
the Black Hills can probably find some
thing in this market which It can use
in exchange for its wood and fruit.
And there is coal in the Black Hills
which could not be delivered to Sioux
Falls in competition with Illinois, Ohio
and Kentucky bscause of prohibitive
freight rates. The railroad commits
sion should take this into account also
while adjusting rates SO the east and
west section of the state can trade
with each other.

MAXIM MORE NEARLY ALIKE

Less luxury for the rich and more
comforts for the poor will bring our cit
izenship closer together, will tend to
develop saner standards of living, will
level some Of the inequalities Of modern
life, will vitalize our nationallsm, and
discourage the spirit Of socialism. y
Congressman Connolly.
Here is paragraph pregnant with
truth. We're all just folks, and the
reason some get the idea that they are
q little better is because we give them
privileges that encourages them in the
thought, and the reason others get the
idea they're down trodden is because
they really are. For you can't make
people at the top beneflciaries Of privi-
lege without making people on the bot
tom the victims Of it.
II everybody was treated fairly, if
everybody got his just share of what he
produced, people would discover that
they are just folks and be drawn closer
together. and they would be enthusias-
tic in support Of government which Sc
cured equality and would be less likely
to fnd attraction in the spirit Of social
ism.
The problem Of the present dayis one
of distribution = how equitable to dis
tribute the fruits Of everybody's labor
80 that one shall not receive more than
his due nor one less than his due. It is
. problem crlling for the highest wisdom,
and the greatest patriotism in its con-
sideration and one that isn't going to be
solved for q while yet, though We are
rapidly moving along the path to its
solution. Dubuque Daily Telegraph.

CaIomel was for years the only
known medicine that would stimulate

gerous, and people are not to be
blamed for being afraid Of it..
Within the last few years many
medicines have been put out to be
used instead Of caIomeI, but their

to actually take the place Of caIomel
is Dodson' Liver Tone. a mild, harm
less, vegetable liquid that Bearden &

Of caIomeI and which gives prompt
