oFFIcIAL BOARDS AND PUBLIC PATRONAGE.

The Saturday News wishes to express itself with refer
ence TO public patronage along the line Of its ntterances IN the
spast. Months ago, discussing public patronage, We said that
AZ was regrettable that men occupying responsible positions in
ssvolylng the dispensing OF public patronage are compelled to
decide between friends and that il is still more ~regrettabIe that
newspapers lay so much stress upon such patronage and seen
IT, be so willing to fight for it even to- the extent of censuring
worthy officials.
On the other hand, there is too frequently d disposition on
the part Of those ~disposing of public patronage to use their po-
fancaed enemies or@to bolster up waning support regardless ct
the interests Of the public. But this all comes within human
fTailtaes, both AS to- the recipients of public patronage and
those having IT 10 hestow.

wish o enllariass friends. nor to hold them up on the ground
that they will personally suffer if they fail To- accord 1T all the
business they have at their disposition.
The Saturday News has hitherto suggested, that So far as
public patronage is concerned, the newspapers should be will
ing To recognize the principle of passing III around, since there
must be more or less Of public patronage dealt out. We are
still of that opinion. We think IL would be better for the
newspaper better for the public, better for the officials whose

THE HABIT OF SAVING.

The Argus-Leader SAYS that the banks of Sioux Falls have
been carrying on a systematic advertising campaign for some
months past to stimulate the habit of saving. The small saver
is urged to start a savings account if only to the extent of a
penny, but to keep it up regularly and Systematically.
1t was with reference to this question that the Visitor,
publiahed by Rev. w. S. O'Meara of this city, recently con-
tanned a very clear and comprehensive dissertation. 1t was
pointed out that France, through its system of savings in a
small way, has accumulated more funds in proportion to its
population than the people of any other nation.
Our Wastefulness here in America is simply appalling
when we stop to consider it in its various aspects. There are
young men-mere boys-in practically every city or village OF
any considerable size--say, a city like Watertown, for instance
who are spending more money for mere pleasure each month
than their grandfathers spent for such purpose in a whole
year.
What with the almost nightly parties, the theaters, the
picture shows, the little supper parties, the dancing parties,
the automobile trips, and 50 on ad inhnitum ad hbltum, there
IS many a young man In every city who is expanding eacn
monthsfor mere self-gratifcation more than the total earnings
of his grandfather, if not also his father, at a corresponding
age.
And yet we are wondering why it costs us 50 much more to
live than it cost our grandfathers! We are wondering why
there is suchan outcry against the high cost of living!
1t is not to be denied that prices are ranging higher and
That the cost OF living has materially advanced. Neither is it
to be denied that the American people are spending more for
joy-rides and pleasure and the qualification of desires than
as n nation. Not only are we spending more in proportion
for such purposes, but we seem to be trying to seek out new
methods Of getting rid Of our money.
~ In the course of Tins we shall discover that, in the end,
there III more pleasure-more real pleasure-in going a little
slower We can have no enduring national thrift without a
corresponding individual thrift.
It should meet with encouragement, not only from our banks,
but from our business houses and our farms and our public
schools and our churches.
That words are frequently employed to conceal ideas is
evidenced by the remarks of President Wilson the other day
ut Pittsburgh. He said: There may come q time when the
american people will have to judge whether ! know what ]
am talking about or not The audience at once assumed
that he was thereby announcing his candidacy for denomination
and started applause, wherenpon the president added another
q pair OF EN-. Now, who knows exactly what the president
meant.

ting some remuneration for printing the official proceedings of
the county board, SO long as it is necessary to have such pro
~ceedings printed somewhere; nor should the South Shore Re-
publican, nor the Henry paper, be continuously deprived of
this business, so long as either remains a'worthy purveyor of

CONCERNING COUNTY CONSOLIDATION.

Our good friend Of the Brooklngs Home Messenger is
~laboring under a great hallucination in the following:
Codington county is endeavoring to secure Ham
lin county's consent to a consolidation of the two
counties. It would be a nice thing to have Hamlin
county assist in paying off some of the debts,s but no
doubt the citizens of Hamin will object to such a
compact. If Hamlin county wants to make a good
deal of that sort why not join with B~rookngs. If
consolidation is a good thing why would it not be still
better to have a consolidation of the counties of
Brookings, Hamln and Deuel.
In the first place, Codington isn't making an appreci
able effort towards consolidation. In the second place, Cod
ington county has no debt to pay off. In the third place, il
any especial benefits result from a merging of the two coun
ties they will lie more largely with Hamlin than with Cod
ington, we opine.
The Messengers. suggestion that if it would be a gooo
thing to combine Hamlin and Codington it would be still bet
ter to combine Hamlin and Deuel. with Brookings.
Our Brookings friend shouldn't have stopped there. Why
not include Kingsbury and Moody, thus forming a quintet in
stead of a trio7 After that would come Minnehaha an3
5Beadle, and then our Messenger friend would want to reacl
over and grab a part of Minnesota.
Conversely, if, as it intimates between the lines, nothing
would be gained by consolidation, we might try the process Of
reduction. Maybe Mamlin is too big now, or possibly Brook
ings has too much territory. just divide it so that Elkto,
could be the center of one county, and White the center of an
other, and so on.
By thus continuing We could eventually get it whitfield
down so that the Messenger Office would be a county all BY

BURKE AND aPROHeBITION,.n

Some Of the newspapers of the state seem to be laboring
mat the votes OF congressman Burke and Dillon, recently re-
coFueu N ne house OF representatives at Washington indicate
that these gentlemen are prohibitionists. ~ 8 saadH"
we do not understand that either Mr.. Burke or Mr.. Dillon
Is q prohlhtonlst, as the term is now generally understood.
Their votes simply mean that they are in favor of putting
or rejection.sjust as any other amendment to the national
constitution must be run the gauntlet. The vote in congress
no. 9 vote either for or against prolibltionit was merely
q vote to refer the question to the people. #H#Ss
So far as Mr.. Burke is concerned, the Saturday News
could have stated q year, ago how MI. Burke's vote would be
recorded when the time for costing it should arrive, if ever.
M. lHolsaple, who pressed Nj. Burke for an anwer, was not 4
and supposedly not participating in the republican
primary. The contest was not then before fhe nennIe' If Tho
state-it was before the republicans Of the state. and It didn't
particularly concern either a prohibitionist or a democrat, so
tar as the primary issue was involved, what Nj. Burke in
tended to do about the proposition to submit the prohibition
amendemnt to the states.
a representative from Faux county at Pierre is quoted
as saying that he would not dare return to- the bosom Of his
constituents # ne did not do everything in his power to repeal
the Richards primary law The gentleman is needlessly con
cerned. His constituents, along with the other constituents
q me state, are themselves responsible for the adoption of
theSlaw, and last fall they refused BY a decisive vote to sub
stltute another for it. If the gentlenan's constituents we're

GUARANTEEING RAILROAD DIVIDENDS.

Senator LaFollette, in his magazine, inclines to the belief
that the recent action OF the interstate commerce commission IN
permitting the eastern railroads to increase their freight
rates five per cent is tantamount TO an assurance that the gov
ernment will guarantee the companies sufficient income to GOV
|er the cost OF the service plus a reasonable amount of profit.
With no physical valuation of the railroads yet ascertain
able, the commission has seen fit to allow this increase in
rates. In doing SO, necessarily the companies valuation
must have been taken into consideration--!sueh valuation as
the companies themselves have fixed aspon their property
e is not our purpose herein to discuss that phase Of the
question but rnerelysto call attention 70 another phase that
will eventually receive more consideration that has thus far
been given 1T since the commission issued Its order allowing
the rate increase. @
It is this: If the companies under the jurisdiction of the
interstate commerce commission are to be permitted to tx
rates that will assure a reasonable profit upon the Investment
and we admit that such a policy seems warranted provided
the government assume full ~authorityS to determine what
rates for interstate business shall be-regardless of the gen
eral conditions IN the industrial world, then it is equivalent to
g government guaranty of profits, even though financial de-
preston may exist IN allother departments Of business.
If,Ithen, the concerns whether applied to railroads or 10
other Ypursuits1 which are transacting an interstate business
industrial enterprises may be suffering heavy depression, the
government would better own and operate them in order to be
able to adjust Interstate commerce business to the general
conditions Of the country
Viewed from any angle that We are able to perceive, we
see no ether course consistently open toSthe government. If we
guarantee profits to the railroads and toSother Interstate cor
porations under til, jurisdiction Of federal commissions, while
we have no voice whatever III the management Of the business,
the propaganda Tor government ownership and operation will
grow apace. There doesn't seem to besany way OF getting
around it-unless we wish within certain limitations to IN
volve the government IN the general scheme Of assuring
profits to all industrial pursuits Z
Carried to its logical conclusion, it includes express com
panies and telegraph companies. And when it comes to state
and municipal utilities, the same principle appies---if the
municipality Is to exercise control over rates, # must take into
consideration valuation, and it must allowsrates to cover the
cost Of the service plus 81 reasonable profit, which will be
equal to- guaranteeing dividends--otherWls " will be conis-
cation.
