Real Meaning of Cross.

It is said that the signature OF a
cross, much used on old documents, is
often misunderstood to mean ignor-
ence on the part of the signer. 1t was
sometimes due to inability to write,
but quite as often among the Saxons
1t was an a~ttestation of good faith, a
form OF oath that the statement was
true. 1t was often required Of the
signer that he add his oath to his
name. and the cross was used as often
in this sense as because the man
could not write.-Exchange. e.

The work of the sOcalled pro-
gressive machine of this state and
the progressiyes pledging fidelity
to the machine at the expense of
principal, is becoming more evi"
dent to the average voter. Yes
sey was a great and good progress
sive governor; in fact the best
we've ever had, SO they would
make us believe. Crawford, the
father of South Dakota progress
sivism is another one. The insur-
ance statement scandal BOW being
investigated duplicates a well
known progressive. The last and
the best is the case of land COM
missioner Brinker who is charged
with plain graft. Brinker is a
staunch progressive and a bull
mooser just like the rest of them.
Be as it may, the adoption Of
the Richards primary law, which
is causing so much quibbling and
now and then a little true study
of its provisions, has shown this
much: that the percent of voters
signatures to invoke the initiative
and referendum should be raised
to at least % percent, instead of
5; that advertising pays, because
Richards inserted ads in almost
all Of the papers in the state ur-
ging the people to vote for the
measure which they promptly did,
IN spite of the fact that they had
the Cultiss pamphlet, at home to
study the law.
