Too Many Laws.

St. Adams Messenger: Governor
Fletcher says that perhaps the state
has more laws than it needs. This re-
mark calls to mind the statement of
Buckle, hade in his History of Civili-
cation. that the most valuable ad-
ditions made to legislation and the
best laws that have been passed have
been those by which former laws have
been repealed" Some people seem to
have a blind faith in legislation. If
there is an evil, pass a law against it.
They seem to be blind to the truth
that no n has yet been able to leg
islate morality into a people. And a
law on the statute book that hasn't
the backing Of public opinion and thus
is ignored, is worse than no law at
all. Nothing tends to bring law
makers and laws into such disrepute
as non-enforcement and the ignoring
Of the provisions Of the statutes.

Against the IL Hour Day

The. campaign against the 'weIve
hour day in the steel industry. which
The Survey has been active i'll further
ing, receives especial impetus through
an article just published in that maya
zine. Tor the author is William B.
Dickson. formerly first vice-president
Of the United States Steel corporation.
He says: w. ..
I'm my judgment a large proportion
or the steel workers who, from early
manhood, work twelve hours a day, are
old men at forty. -,"
1.-THE plea has been mades that in
some cases the workmen do not desire
a shorter w~ork-day. This same, state
ment was made as an excuse for the
seven day week, but in both cases it
has come from that migratory class of
laborers whose sole aim is to quickly
accumulate some money and return to
Europe, are physically, mentally and
morally facilitating. It is not reason
able to permit this class to. fix stand
ards for American citizens.
Can the manufacturers offord an
eight-hour day? I believe the adyan-
tages to be derived from more efficient,
because less exhausted, workmen will,
ditional cost may be involved; but
aside from this, I am of the opinion
tina the steel companies can today af-
ford TO change from a twelve-hour to
an eight-hour day In all those processes
which are necessarily continuous. IN
other departments a ten-hour day is
practicable, n perhaps advisable. II,
however, it should be found that costs
were actually increased SO that a fair
return on the investment could not he

part of the burden should be shifted to
the consumer by advancing prices. This
is, however. iii my opinion, a remote
contingency.
1T not this the crux of the matter?
The principal business of each genera
ton of men Is, not to produce cheapIy
any article of merchandise, however

White Lake. S, d..

Rel1c Resembling Gun Is at
White Lake, S. ID.
White Lake, S. D., Jan. S.-Three feet
under the ground Barry Buehre found
a valuable relic, which dates back to
long before this part of the northwest
was settled by the whites. 1t was
found when a basement was being dug.
The relic is a piece of red pipestone,
inches in width at the widest part. 1t
is cut somewhat in the form of a gun
but more nearly resembles a crossbow.
One side is beautifully engraved with
flower work, while the other side is
but not engraved.
PipestOne pipes and other objects of
modern design are COMMON among the
Sioux Indians of South Dakota, but
nothing like this is known to be IN
the possession of any Of the Sioux now.
How long the relic lay where it was
found is unknown, but it may have
been there at least 100 years.
