We are in receipt of a personal
letter, mailed from Washington
and bearing what is supposed to
be the signature of Coe |. Craw-
ford, soliciting our support. Now
it is we'll known that Mr.. Crawford
has not been in Washington for
weeks, so this signature is evident
ly forgery, though the statements
that it contains were probably out
lined by him, or by his man, Jones,
who is receiving $100 per month to
write dope for him. 1t is cheaper
for him to have these letters sent
out from Washington, as he can
then use senate stationery which is
paid for by the government. In
the letter he says; ;"Mr Burke pre-
fers gum shoe campaign OF mis-
representation and money-paying
cold cash TO news. apers for their
support" This is a base insult,
not only to MIR. Burke but to the
hundreds Of newspapers that are
supporting him. MIR. Burke has
positively declared that neither
himself nor The organization that
is boosting his campaign has paid
one dollar for newspaper support.
This insult to the newspapers is
not a new departure with Mr..
Crawford. He charged the same
thing when he was running for
governor, and it is not strange that
he finds four fifths of the papers
in the state resenting his dirty
slanders.

Congressman Dillon was in
town between trains Monday. He
says he has been through the nor

very we'll satisfied with conditions
affecting his candidacy. He is
paying no attention to state issues
but is dwelling upon the regulation
of grain commission firms, and
the establishment of a rural credits
system.

Some Of the newspapers are try
ing to console the tax payers by
assuring them that state taxes IN
South Dakota are lower than in
any OF the surrounding states.
This may be true, but there are
few other states in the union that
are prohibited by their constitu-
tions from engaging in any works
of internal Improvement. Other
states are building public roads and
bridges, and making other improve
ments and paying for them out Of
the state revenues, while in this
8 tate all of these expenses must be
paid by the counties, or townships.
Our state taxes therefore ought to
be very much lower.

ia, The son, the only child they

INCREASE IN TAXES

The total taxes on farm lands
east of Missouri river, in South
Dakota, in 1906 was So, ,242, $40 .45;
in 1912 S4,OO8, ,629 29 and in 1918
$4,72O.436,55. Taxes more than
doubled i'll six years.
The total state tax, in the state,
in 1906 was $442, ,8O3.78; in 1912
ST., ,4l8,O15.31 and in 1913 $1,195,-
455.22. State taxes about trebled
in six years, while the pop
ulation has increased less than 3096
and the 1918 state tax will not pay
the state expense within $427 ,OC0
according to the state auditors
figures. For the present state
regime to compare the state tax of
1913 with 1912, when the 1918 tax
is short Of paying state expenses,
and the 1912 tax is its own high
water mark of expenditures, is
juggling. How about the increase
OF 1862 new state jobs? Don't you
want to clean up the spoils system
and hold down taxes by voting for
R. 0. Richards for governor at the
Primary election, March Oath. ADV.

Congressman Burke spent the
day in Scotland last Thursday
making personal calls on everyone
that he could meet. He did not
deliver any public address prepar-

tion on the living issues now pend

ested, and by the presentation of
garbelsd reports and half truths to
defend questionable record, as
his opponent is doing but he met
the people face to face, giving
them an opportunity to quiz on
any subject that they desired.

THE IRISH STANDARD

unselfish citizenship; it means that
we stand together for the defense of
right and the redress of great
wrongs in the family, in the school,
in the social, economic, civil, or po-
litical conditions of the country. 1t
represents and fearlessly proclaims
Catholic public opinion on the most
important questions of the day. 1t
needs center and an organ that it
may be the propagator of Catholic
thought among all classes.
Truth and Justice Give Us Courage
and Strength.
1. We stand for the sanctity of
the Christian home and family, rest
ing on the sacred and stable founda-
tions of Christian marriage.
2. We maintain that man was
created to know and serve God.
Hence religion ought to be fostered
and inculcated in every department
of education from the lowest to the
highest.
3. We wish Christian principles
to rule everywhere; in the states, in
business, in labor unions, in all the
civic, social, financial and industrial
relations of men.
Our policy is constructive. We
wish to build rather than to destroy.
We aim to be Jealous in doing good,
rather than petulant or narrow in
complaining of grievances. In the
great movements which are exerting
their forces about us, Catholics
should be the first to recognize what
is true and good, and to point out
and condemn what is false and evil.
We Are Men-We Are Christians.
Everything that pertains to mans
welfare, spiritual or corporal, tenn
poral or eternal, is our faith and
our ethics. The spirit of liberty and
personal initiative is awake and
struggling against the tyranny and
selfishness of materialism. We must
not be too hasty to condemn the
popular movements of those who are
striving to improve their condition.
The Church does not wish to repress
that spirit of liberty, but to take 1t
into the service of religion. The
Church wishes to make of the spirit
of independence and progress, true
friend and ally, while she guides
the men of this age in the path OF
truth, justice and Christian freedom
Every man, from the president of the
United States to the humblest toilel
in the land, should be made to fee
that this federation is with him In
every effort to defend right and re
dress wrong.
Laymen, through this Federation
can make the church known to thou
sands whom the clergy cannot reach
Already the light is breaking, ant
the best minds of this country ar
realizing the truth of Catholic princi
pies of civil, social, domestic an
private virtue. Heretofore there ha
been wanting united effort and ex
preston of Catholics for the right
of religion and the welfare of society
In many places we have needed edu
Gated and religious laymen, traine
to compete and lead in the publ
careers of American life. We ar
one in six or seven of the population
the proportion of our numbers in tn
higher Offices ought to be one in 81
or seven. By the very moral fore
