represent the actual valuation, accord
ing to orders given by the tax COM

probably will be about ~one-fourth of
last year. this return would have made
an actual tax reduction for the Home

THAT NIGHTMARE
The Richards Primary Law a
Bugaboo In Minds of
Voters

Sioux Falls. Aug. 26. -Newspaper
pu blicity and a school house campaign
are among the methods approved by
the republican county committee to
explain the primary law and secure
the registrations of the voters of the
county. The committee met In the
county court room and a number of
county officials and prospective candi-
dates were also in attendance. An
other meeting of the committee was set
for September 10 when the executive
committee expects to lay before the
general committee its complete plans
for a registration campaign.
The meeting was called to order by
H. A. Ostrud, chairman of the county
committee and he briefly explained
its purpose. stating that he had taken
upon himself to call the meeting in
order that some steps might be taken
to secure the registration of the vot-
ers.
he called on Martin Bergh, states
attorney, to explain some of the pro-
visions of the law. Mr.. Bergh point
ed out that while the law was I'M
popular it is today the law Of the
state and must be observed and that
those who wish to vote at the 3ri.
mary election ia March will have to
register. He also stated that under
the law. the voting of unregistered
persons could result in tho throwing
out Of the voters of the entire pre-
cinct. He said that he was of the
opinion that the township clerks could
be paid for the time they devote TO
secure the registrations of the voters.
but he had not completed his investi-
cations along this line.
That the primary law, which was
enacted largely through the expensive
conducted for 1t by its au-
thor, Dick Richards, at the last cleo
ton, is an instrument designed by
its author to aid his own political
was the assertion made by
c. j. Morris, who was speaker of the
house of representatives in the state
Legislature when the bill was defeat
ed, before it was initiated. He de-
clared that Richards purposely had
the law made so that many of the
voters would be disfranchised, ex-
pecting that his friends would register
and thus control the state.

THE Mann ACT


Harpers' Weekly: 1t has been held
in the notorious San Francisco Gaze
that a man is brought within the Mann
Act, the so. called White Slave act. if
he merely pays the fare Of a woman
from n place to another, il they are
making the trip for purposes deemed
morally Objectionable. 1t may or may
not be wise for the government to IN.
dertske to regulate all the sex matters
in the universe, but it is certainly
idiotic to make no distinctions be-
tween the real white slave traffic
which is the organized interstate
trade in vice, and those voluntary
arrangements between the two indi-
viduals concerned. The eight against
organized vice as a business, has be-
gun in earnest, and has an increasing
weight of public feeling behind it.
The danger Of a statute like the
Mann Act is that, in mixing up q
crnel business with the ordinary con
Germs of private individuals, it may
b ming about a reaction. The Mann Act
not only does not confne itself to or
ganized traffic, 1t does not con6ne itself
TO prostitution organized or isolated.
1t undertakes to bring within the fed
eral statute, on a technicality, purely
individual and non m%ercenary matters
and thus uake the federal govern
ment interfere with the most intimate
private morals. Whatever your opin-
ion about human rights may be, you
will admit that the law in this in
stance is undertaking a considerable
amount of regulation.
