THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER ". 1913.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1913-07-01
SALOON DAY
South Dakota Towns To-Day
Enter Upon the New
Saloon Law

Today was saloon day In South Da-
kota. Under the new law restricting
saloons in each community TO one for
each 600 population or major fraction
thereof, hundreds of saloons went out
of business last night, the new law
taking effect today.
In anticipation of the application of
the new law municipal officers owe
the state have pruned the lists of sa-
looms by various methods. The city
councils, it is provided by the law,
must designate the saloon lists who
may continue in business. This, in
general. has been a ticklish business
for politicians. One of the most not.
able methods adopted by town officers
to assure acceptable saloons, and at
the same time to avoid unpleasant
ness, has been adoption of the ''mun-
icipally elected ~saloonist'' idea.
Elections were held in a number Of
South Dakota cities at which the people
voted on candidates for saloon keeper.
The definite understanding in these
cases was that the city councils would
ratify the popular favorites. The sa-
loon men receiving the highest popular
| votes were to run the saloons under the
new law.
Elk Point, county seat of Union
county, was one of the cities which
adopted this plan. Six saloon keepers
entered the lists. The three highest
in the popular vote were named by the
city council to conduct the city's sa-
looms, and will be the sole dispensers
of liquor during the coming yea
Changes in the license fees which
may be collected by the cities also go
into effect under the new law. Munich
pal from saloons will be about
as high, because of increased licenses,
as they were under the old plan,
with tie number of saloons restricted.
Census ~recounts in several cities have
been taken since the law was passed,
last March. In some cases large
enough increase in population was
shown to entitle the cities TO add
tionsl saloons. At Elk Point the
population was shown to be 1853
thus increasing the saloon roster from
two to three.
Strict regulation of saloon signs is a
feature of the new Law. A sign not
over fifteen feet long, or less than
twelve inches deep. shall be erected
above the entrance of each saloon,
fronting the street, and shall display
the name of the person or corporation
to whom the license was issued. No
other overhead signs will be allowed,
but two signs, not over six feet square,
will be allowed at the entrance. On
these signs the word BAR" or SINH.
lar inscription may be used. Electric
beer signs and all others not specified
in the law will have to come down.
All sigus must be printed in the
English language.

THEIR TROUBLES
Elk Point People Disclaim Popu

Purposes

Elk Point, July 1.-Elk Point was
one of the new cities of Sou,h Dakota
in which "A ems was taken under the
new saloon law. The census returns
show a population of 1868 people
which would entitle Elk Point to three
saloons under the new law. But a
petition of remonstrance has been filed
with the city council, the governor of
the state and the county commissioner
alleging that the census return was
padded and hat Elk Point has not
sufficient population TO entitle her tc
three saloons.
The three licenses have been granted
by the council and the commissioner
have approved the bonds, but the fight
will be carried into the courts tc
settle the question. The petitioners
allege that the population of Elk

Were You There!

Editor the NIissOurian: Stu
dents should attend their department
and class meetings. Too often these
meetings are held when only the OIL
GERS and the few faithful workers are
present. 1t is the duty of every one
to go to a meeting where things that
concern his class are to be discussed.
The whole of a college education is
not gained from books. One can stay
at home and study them. The DIFF
ferent organizations and outside"
affairs broaden the student. At these
meetings he gets things that do not
come from classroom work. True,
they are optional. but University men
and women should be far enough ad-
vanced to take advantage of things
that are not required.
If department is to discuss some
business, you, as member of that
department. have the right and duty
to take part in the discussion. Il
there is some work to be done, it is
your duty to help do it.

SANITY OF STEADY DRINKERS.

The steady drinker of alcoholic
liquors is seldom sane, DIR. ID. T.
Crothers says. He is superintendent
of the Walnut Lodge Hospital at Harc-
ford. Conn, and is an authority on
alcoholic poisoning. He defines the
steady drinker as the man who drinks
every day. seldom gets drunk, but
boasts that he can take it or leave
it alone, and says that drink has
never hurt him.
The doctor bases his statement on
his observation of men who were
steady drinkers. Many of these men
were in the professions and were
able TO carry their work on rational
ly. But they usually had some habit
which was absolutely insane This
applied, he said, especially to moral
attitudes.
He has also noticed that the physi-
cal weakness of the steady drinker
is transmitted to the children, and
they usually become addicted to drink
if they are given a taste of liquor
The steady drinker can give nothing
steady in return for what he pours
into himself. but only the unstabia
products of wavering mind and tot
tering body.

WHAT! no CHORES TODAY!

Again the modern convenience is
being assailed-this time as the cause
of a race of soft city boys. The
lack of chores, due to the inroads OF
the modern convenience, will cause
the present-day youth to lose the
training in industry that his prede-
cessors received. it is argued. When
he enters the field of life he has ne
knowledge of anything but play, and
has not learned to buckle down to
disagreeable tasks.
Possibly the persons who are rails
ing this fuss are right No longer is
it the portion of the city boy to chop
kindling wood, nor to keep the coal
scuttles filled from the bin i'm the
barn, nor to-to-nor to-Well, what
else is there that he no longer has to
do? He used to bring water from the
cistern, but that was SO long ago in
cities that there is no use in raising
a "holler" about it now. Little chance
is there for the urban youth to bring
up the cows" nor so far as We are
aware, has any modern convenience
invaded the country that will cause
the cows to come to the barn and
hunt for the milk pail. Is it true that
the boy must grow up in idleness?
Well, how about the two tons o.
coal that he carried from the oacK
fence to the cedar window for the
furnace? Won't the half-dollar his
father gave him for that give him a
respect for work? And how about the
numerous times he cut the grass last
summer! Don't you think that the
steep terrace in front will give him
