EMIT MIR. TAFT.

This is the last day of Mr.. Tafts
administration, and it can hardly be
said to be a happy one. either for
himself or for his party. There is no
occasion now for reviewing the
change that has taken place since
Taft went into the presidency with
the greatest republican vote on rec
ord. 1t cannot be a source of salts
faction to Mr.. TAFT and certainly it
is not a pleasant topic for those who
have a personal interest in the for
tunes of the republican party.

there will be no such thing as chang

The new president assumes to find
significance in the election OF a dem
ocratic administration. 1t cannot be
said that the people changed the
party in power because of any special
desire to commission the democrats.
For Wilson was a minority candidate
and moreover ran behind the unsuc-
cessful Bryan. While the new presi-
dent seems to forget this in his open
ing remarks, it seems to have been
under his notice in the close, when he
declared that this is not a day OF

would find a hearty response in the
average American, who is pretty vel
disgusted with the manner in which
hostile interests have played the two
parties against him.

Pierre, S. D.-The "anti-pass bill

the session which had for one of its

pany to provide one attorney in each

No Oil Inspectors.
with the enactment of the senate
bill eliminating state oil inspectors
in the house today, Governor Byrne
will have a long list of perfectly good
recommendations left on his hands
as a reminder that a long list of gem
tlemen OF the state we're perfectly
willing TO serve its interests in that
line. But he has not been pushing
any OF these appointments to the
front, in fact has been waitin G to see
what the legislature would do in re-
gard to the act eliminating them. and
now there Will be no need for the APP
p%ointments. There were thirty or
more applications in for the three
places. and the new act will save the
governor the duty OF disappointing
any of the many applicants.
Before the bill which creates a
state live stock board got through
the house, that body had eliminated
another proposed official place, as
the bill, as originally started, pro-
vided for a state board OF five, with a
secretary outside The board. but the
extra man was eliminated, it being
provided that one of the board
should be the executive officer. with
a salary OF two thousand dollars a
year.
For Fire Emergency.
There has always been a question
what II should be pursued in
case OF the loss OF a building at any
OF the state institutions by fire. al
a time when there would ne a lone
wait for a legislative session, anG
various methods have been proposed
in the way OF making any money col
lected for insurance Immediately

house. 492. by the state affairs com
mite, has for it's purpose the ere.

to meet contingencies such as this
and fixes $4,000 for the purpose o.
carrying out any emergencies which
are required to be met through ac.

The evidence of haste in legisla.
ton is shown in house bill 1913 by
the judiciary committee. which is

ent session. this being the bill to eX.

is to straighten this out that an

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER
DRINKERS

Perhaps not in the history of the
state has there been SO clear-cut a
case OF mis-nsing funds against a
state official as that which has caused
the resignation of r. r. Rrinker,
commissioner of school and public
lands. Within a week after ii be-
came known that a legislative inves-
tigating committee had discovered ir-
Irregularities. Mr.. Brinker has resign
ed his Office and has been bound
over for trial Oh the charge of OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses.
The o which it has been
found that Mr.. Brinker obtained was
small, only $565. 90, and that sum
has been returned by the accused of
fetal. All the circumstances OF the
case go to indicate that the evidence
against Mr.. Brinker was %irrefutable.
1t is indeed well that "A sharp
watch be kept upon the administra-
tion of this Office. No state official
has the amount entrusted to him that

millions of dollars and in addition
there is a great domain of uhsold
school and public lands still in the
possession of the state. II is perfect
~ obvious that a commissioner not
too scrupnlous in his manageme
of the Office would find abundant on
portunity to enrich himself. This, no
doubt, is the reason why the legisla-
tive committee has been urged by
Gov. Byrne to continue it's work af-
ter the adjournment of the regular
session. 1t is also we'll that every
other office be probed, and probed to
the bottom. The Brinker case has
served to put others under suspision
and their honesty should be estab-
lished and published by the COM
mittee as a matter of fairness to
them.

THE NEW PRESIDENT TO HIS
PEOPLE.

IIIL NEW IllEoIIDItN III HIS
PEOPLE.
Since his election to the presidency
last November, Woodrow Wilson
has been singularly reticent in his
public declarations. Undoubtedly
this had served to increase the pub
lies respect for him, but at the same
time it has whetted interest in what
he would have to say when he did
open his mouth upon The subject of
his W administration.
At the very outset, President vii
son manifests good judgment in max
ing his inaugural address of readable
length. This is in welcome contrast
to the habit by preceding executives
of attempting to cover the length and
breadth of a nations history, with
the result that very few have been
reading any considerable part Of such
speeches.
his remarks today so brief that not a
reader OF any newspaper will have
any excuse for failing to scan every
,,N,I of IT,. what Il. IL ic al
mirably couched in purest, simplest
English. If We may judge from this
first effort, Wilson will prove to be
the public for support for mis- pro-
gram.
1t will be recalled that Wilson
paign hat a party platform is not
necessarily a program. Not since
that time until today has he with any
program would be. Even today he is
entirely general in. his remarks, but
at the same time he makes clear
what it Will be his ambition to ac-
complish during his administration.
He contents himself with mention
ing the chief items that, in his OPP
,:, 49, l., sod rs olo,uo Tjay
are:
A tariff which he maintains has
been %peryedted to the use OF selfish
interests.
A currency system outgrown fifty
years ago and lending aid to those
who would concentrate credit and
capt. la
An industrial system limiting OPP
portunities for the small business
man and inconsiderate of the claims
OF labor.
A system of agriculture hat loses
in efficiency because it is u%nscientific.
Waste of human and natural re-
sources.
Thus Wilson talks like a national
list, as distinguished from the dis
ciples OF state rights, that doctrine
which paralyZes effective federal reg
~ulation and opens the way by which
greed and c%riminality may attain its
ends.
There is nothing especially dis
tinctive about this program OF refor-
nation. 1t is unusual, but crafty
ing. to find so much emphasis placed
upon the Importance of developing
the nations agriculture. Aside from
this, Wilson has expressed the famil-
lar desires of progressives of all
parties TO- many years.
The most significant fact in his
message is that it shows that he
counts himself unQuali1edly II pro-
gressiye. True, he recognizes the
necessity of moving carefully, of
avoiding destruction during r%estora-
ton, but every progressive has seen
the same necessity, if he is worthy of
the name. They have emphasized the
need OF change. in order to secure
change. not for the purpise of
achieving chaos.
Wilson's speech assuredly rings

Religion" he continued, is at the
foundation of education, first, last and
always; 1T gives vitality depth aud
harmony to the whole character. SO
far as the teachers and the scholars
in our schools are religious and come
from religious homes there will be
an atmosphere of religion in the
school room. With, however. the
variety of races faiths and no faiths
represented in the children of our
public schools, we may put the
thought of definite teaching of the
Christian faith in the schools out Of
our minds. 1t cannot be done and it
ought not to be attempted"
The suggestions that the different
denominations send religious teach
ers to the schools and at certain
hours under voluntary system give
children, separated according to
sects, their religious education, was
set aside as unable to meet the situa@
ton. While he expressed high re-
spect for the parachial school system
Of the Catholic church, Bishop Law

worth was limited.

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Religious edu-
cation was the principal theme of the
sermon preached today by the Rt
Rev. William Lawrence, bishop OF
Massachusetts. at the opening of the
general convention of the Protestant
Episcopal church. Religious instruc-
ton, he said, should not be confined
to any one agency or system but
should peryade every avenue of life,
His text was from First John, VA:
This is the victory that overcome
the world, even our faith"
At the outset Bishop Lawrence said
he wished to strike the note struck by
the general convention in 1880, which
sent forth to the church message
containing this dominant paragraph:
1--WE should endeavor to throw our
selves into the actual breathing world
around us, and speak to the living
present rather than to the dead past.
We should seek to know the needs OF
our country, the tendencies, dangers,
exigencies of our times, to what God
calls us in His Providence, what
traces of His guidance and direction
we can discern in past history, and
whittier He points us now"

age offered by the independence of
the church in the United States, and
by the fact that laymen sit in its
