W~HITTEMoRE'S VIEW

Hon. w. E. Whittemore Of Estelline,
a member OF the legislature from
Hamlin county, writes to Representa-
tive Kerr this week and takes excep-
tions to our views on the legislature as
expressed in last weeks issue. We are
very glad to know tn. t Mr.. Whittemore
reads the Register and are pleased to
give space to his letter. His position
may be well taken and at any rate his
views are interesting, but our opinion
in the matter has not been materially
changed. Mr.. Whittemore's letter is
as follows:
Estelline, S. d., March IA, 1913.
Mr.. r. F. Kerr, Bookings, s. d.
Dear Mr.. Kerr:
have just been reading the Regis
ter and have noticed the unkind re-
marks regarding the lack of appropria-
tons for the college, and particularly
as to those remarks referring to the
Brookings county delegation.
No one deplored the lack of sufficient
funds for carrying on the work of the
college more than I, but l think the re-
marks of the editor of the Register
entirely uncalled for, and I do not like
them.
You or I could have made up a list of
appropriations more to our liking and
particularly as applied to this eastern
portion of the state, but with the
varied interests representing such a
large state, and in view of the large
appropriations which Brookings has
had in the recent past, I don't q
wherein the college could have expect
ed any considerable more than she got.
It's an easy matter to find fault, but
could Mr. butcher, or any delegation
which he might name, have done any
better? / doubt it very much.
Yours truly,
w. e. Whittemore.

A NEW DELUGE OF LAWS

AS legislatures go, the one which
just closed a session at Pierre vas a
very fair body. Too much should not
be expected of such assemblies. Con-
slider for moment how they are COM
posed. The e~xigencies of political con,
test place a premium upon the man
who has had few convictions-or at
least few opinions to utter. Such a
man usually has few enemies, be-
cause he has not been positive enough
to accumulate them. He, as a rule, is
not especially informed nor a student
of public affairs. His ideas of the
needs Of the state are somewhat vague.
However, he finds himself, at the
state capitol, the object of a great
deal Of attention. 1t Is forced upon
his not unwilling consciousness that
he is Somebody, with a capital S. 1t Is
the first time he has been elected to
public office, and, for all he knows, it
may be the last. Therefore, he is i'm
pressed with the necessity Of doing
something right away to make himself
famous. He begins to cast around for
a few bills to introduce, this being his
conception of the way to start a legis-
lative career. 1t may be a measure to
prohibit children from putting salt Oh
the tails of bluejays, or it may put IN
der the ban the wearing of vermilion
hued skirts in public or some other
equally brilliant effort. 1t is much the
same to the legislator who sees star
ing him in the face his great opportun-
ity to become famous.
So it was that nearly a thousand
bills were presented to the legislature
just adjourned. Think Of it! A thous-
and bills, enough to make a cumber-
some code for any state in the union!
And this Notwithstanding the fact that
no one knew there was any crying
need for more than perhaps a half
dozen measures.
What is the result? NO less than
800 new laws, more than 100 in excess
of the number passed at the last pre-
ceding session of the state legislature.
Nearly 400 new measures on the sta
tute books, when the people were de-
handing practically none! And all
this the output Of a sixty-day session,
a third of which was given up to a
wrangle over the election of a United
States senator! There is careful de-
liberation for you! There Is the wis
dom OF statecraft exemplfied in a leg
islative machine so much more perfect
than congress or parliament that it
car grind out a whole volume of laws
while you wait!
This Is worse than absurd, for the
reason that it tends to make a laugh
ing stock OF the laws of the state. Not
only is this suggested by the overpro-
duction of laws, but also by the man
ner in which they are turned out. Time
and again a bill will be passed on one
day by a decisive vote and next day
r~econsidered and defeated by an equal

ly decisive vote; or vice versa. In
other words, nobody knows much
whether the measure should pass or
not. Somebody says pass it," and
the whole flock follows owe the fence.
Then perhaps somebody says Don't
pass it," and the whole flock follows
back over the fence.
This may be a legislature, but the
product Is not legislation.
Yet, as said in the beginning, this
was a very fair body of men, as legis-
latures go. At least its utter freedom
from any sort Of control was manifest
at almost every moment, and, OF
course, that means a great deal. Still,
even If the legislature is free to act
as it thinks best, if it doesn't know
how to act the result will be more or
less uncertain after all.-Mitchell Re-

STATE OFFICIALS ARE CROWDED

The question of location of the new
state appointive officers which are to
go to the capital under new laws, or
rulings is one which is agitating state
house circles. The old established de-
partments are holding onto what they
secured at the opening of the session,
and the new ones are hunting the
most advantageous quarters. The tax
commission has decided temporarily
to locate in the rooms occupied during
legislative sessions as the private office
of the lieutenant governor; the office
of the secretary of the senate, and the
senate bill file room. Their tenure in
these rooms depend upon circum-
stances. The bank examiners depart
ment will also probably be located on
the third floor of the building, along
with the tax commission, and Offices
which will be required by the board
of Investigation, the state live stock
department and others who will be
looking for quarters in the building.

GOOD WORDS FOR
 MRS. A. P. SWINEFORD

The appointment of Mrs. A. P. Swineford as postmistress at Ketchi- kan is a chivalrous one on the part of Postmaster-General Burleson. She is the widow of former Governor Swine ford. who held sway under Cleyeland's administration, and who remained in Alaska until death called him. Mrs. Swineford is a woman advanced in age. is possessed of fine ability and in all respects fitted for the position. This appointment should please every body, as the former governor left but little wealth, and the office will great ly assist deserving lady. So far as Alaska appointments are concerned, the administration is doing most ad- mirably.-Seward Gateway.

MARTINE THINKS IT
 WILL BE BRYAN NEXT

Senator James E. Martene, of New Jersey, over whose Senatorial candi- dacy occurred the first break between Woodrow Wilson and James Smith Jr, and who was one of the originals and hardest boosters for Wilson's nom- ination, thinks William J. Bryan will be the nominee for president in 1916. The following is St, Louis dispatch in the New York Times:
 If William J. Bryan is a candidate for the presidency in 1916 nothing can prevent his election. according to Senator James E. Martene. of New Jersey, who is here to attend the dedi- cation of the Jefferson Memorial. Mir. Martene said the one-term plank in the Democratic platform would pre- vent President Wilson's renomination,
 Bryan will be the logical candi- date, he said. People have come to know and to understand him better. Peojle think that he has become more stable in his views, struck an equili- bruim, as it were. The fact is, Mir. Bryan is just as radical today as he was twenty years ago, but the people have grown up to him."
