Cries Bryan To Patriotic
Americans.
HE BLAMEs RECKLESS PEOPLE
Who Jeopardize Country and
Selves BY Going Aboard
Big British Liners.
WANTS TO AID THE PRESIDENT

William J. Bryan, former Secre.
tary of State, has given out the fol-
lowing signed statement:
81 have read the editorial opinions
concerning the sinking of the Arab
ic, as those opinions were reproduc-
ed in the daily papers. but they seem
to me to avoid the most important
question.
1.-THE real question is not whether
American citizens have, under inter-
national law, a right to travel
through the danger zone on the
ships of belligerent nations. That
is admitted. The question just now
is whether an American citizen
should put his convenience or even
his rights above his nations well
fare.
"If American citizens refuse to
consider their own safety or the
safety of the nation, then second
question arises, namely, whether the
Government should permit few
passengers to drag the country into
this unparalleled war.
"Our Government has made pro-
test and there is no doubt that the
position taken is abundantly sup,
ported by precedent, but that does
not necessarily mean that we are go
ing to war.
Diplomacy has not yet concluded
its work, and even if diplomatic eff
forts fail, we have recourse to the
treaty plan, which must be resorted
to in case or disputes with Great
Britain, France, Italy and Russia.
and should be resorted to before go
ing to war with any other belliger-
ent nation.
IF the treaty plan falls. we still
have a chance between entering this
war and the postponement of final
settlement until peace is restored.
In the meantime it will be we'll to
think of the thousands, or possibly
the hundreds of thousands who
would be sacrificed if we enter this
war; these brave men are certainly
entitled to consideration as we'll as
the few who by deliberately incur
ring unnecessary risks. bring harm
upon themselves and danger to their
country.
ut is time for the unneutral por-
ton of the press of the United States
to lay aside it's bias and unite in
helping the President to keep the
country out of war.
"The proallies papers are insisting
upon war with Germany, for the
benefit of the allies, and the pro-
German papers are Insisting upon an
embargo on arms and ammunitions
for the benefit of Germany. If these
two groups of papers would join to-
gether and urge measures to re-
strain American citizens from going
into the danger zone on belligerent
ships, and prohibiting American
passenger ships from carrying arms
and ammunition--if they would do
this. they would aid in preventing
war and in reserving for our nation
the priceless opportunity to act as
peacemaker when the time for peace
arrives"

bring it back into condition. In fact
the blisters and ulcers in the mouths
and feet heal rather readily and COM
pletely, but it is positively known that
animals apparently recovered from the
disease, may spread the virus for as
long as six months after recovery has
taken place. For these reasons, foot
and mouth disease is a most serious
one, and every effort is being taken by
the federal government to prevent its
spread.
1T is highly important that every
stock owner be familiar with the
means by which the disease is spread,
and that he cooperate with the state
and the federal authorities in every
manner possible to prevent its intro
duction into South Dakota"

NOT ACCIDENTS

Town and community are not mere
accidental features of the landscape;
they are indispensable factors in pro-
ducing not only the highest but the
only known civilization. The human
race can as conveniently dispense with
houses as with communities. Man is
a social animal and the community is
but a development of mans social in,
stincts. Of course the community can
lie destroyed, the rural town can be
wiped off the map; but not without
a serious loss to civilization .

Men and women go on creating wealth,
but the large mass of the people have
no hold upon it. The millions Of New
York create billions of wealth by the
mere fact of being herded together, but
little good it does the herd.
The other day a lot II 374 Fifth ave
nue., New York, was sold at the rate OF
$500, 900 an acre by a granddaughter
of william Astor, who in 1885 had
bought the same land at SO 5000 an
acre. Here was wealth to the extent
of $5.497. 900, a social value created by
people in the millions. Yet perhaps
less than a half dozen persons out Of
the whole great city shared the bene-
fits of the wealth created by all. That
is one of the big reasons old age is ter
rifying.
Socializing the land would be one
way of making life a more pleasant
passage for the great majority. If the
five billions Of dollars of land values
which it is estimated exist because of
the fact that New Workers live in New

anxiety of old age. But socially Gre

South Dakota has quarantined against
every infected state or area where the
disease is known to exist in order to
guard against it's introduction into this
state. In this connection it would be
we'll for every person buying stock
from an adjoining state to make GER
tain that he is not getting this stock
from a ~quarantined area. Further,
any one going in or about any of the
stock yards in the larger cities, should
take every p%recaution to prevent the
possibility of the disease being taken
home even it it is not known to exist
in the yards at the time of his visit.
This can be accomplished to a great
degree by wearing a pair of rubbers
in and about the s~tockyards. lmmed-
lately after coming away from the
stock yards, these rubbers should be
burned or disinfected thoroughly by
washing them with a solution of n
ounce of formalin in a quart of water.
Foot and mouth disease is a disease
of cattle, sheep and hogs primarily, al
though some other animals including
man are occasionally infected. The
cause of this disease is a flterable
virus; the specific germ has not yet
been isolated. 1t is characterized by
its extreme righteousness and the
rapidity with which it develops after
infection occurs In from two to fve
DAYS the animals develop small bis
tiers in their mouths and on their
tongues. At the same time sores ap-
pear about the feet where the HAIR and
hoof meet, and also between the claws.
When the mouths are infected, eating
is painful and difficult, and there is a
rapid loss of flesh. When the feet are
infected, lameness ensues and there Is
little desire on the animals part to
move about. A day or two after the
blisters appear, either on the feet or
in their mouths, they break and dis
charge their watery contents. The in.
lection is present in large quantities
and in ~virulent form in the discharge
from these blisters.
"The infection mixes with the SALIVA
which runs from the mouths In large
quantities and infects hay, straw and
everything which the animals come in
contact. The manur and bedding may
easily be infected in this way, n dis
ease spread from animal to anime
and from farm to farm, SO that In

the preacher is one with the great ma.
jority of the world.
The pension fund operated by the
First National bank of this city is
among the most important described
because the bank pension fund comes
more nearly providing a competency.
The pension system is actually a COM
pulsory association managed by the
bank.
Every employee over Is must become
a member of the association. He must
pay 8 per cent of his salary, and this
is deducted monthly. If he resigns or
is dismissed his payments are returned
having worked Is years the payments
are returned with 4 per cent interest
On reaching so a member may retire
or he may be required to retire on a
pension. Ill health permits an earlier
retirement. At IS the employee or Off
Ger must retire unless specifically re-
quested not to do so.
The amount of the pension is fixed
at one-fifth of the salary on the date
of retirement for each year or each
service. Fifteen years service would
mean a pension equal to 80 per cent
of the last salary. Twenty-Five years
service would near half pay. In no
case can the pension be more than 70
per cen of the salary.
A widow can receive half her hus.
bands pension for the number OF
years he was employed by the bank,
unless she remarries. The bank con
tributed $25, 900 as an initial fund and
since the start of the system in 1898
gifts have equaled 6 per cen of the
salary total. The highest pension pos
sible may not exceed $4,000 a year.

The establishment of an adequate
pension system Is the only decen'

also for the state in which so many o
