GETTING INTO RACE
Municipal Judge Candidate Brings
Mandamus Proceedings.

Lead, April 16.-By obtaining a
mandamus which temporarily COM
pels the city auditor TO accept his
petition, Judge H. e. Dewey has kept
himself in the race for municipal
court judge, which heretofore prom
ised TO be but two-sided. The pres
ent incumbent. Judge Rogers. and
his opponent, Judge Walsh, each filed
some time ago. Judge Dewey at
tempted to file, but the city auditor
declined to accept his petition, giving
as his reason that it failed to comply
with the law and some of the sigma
lures were incomplete and in lead
pencil.
Judge Dewey then obtained the
writ of mandamus from the circuit
court and stands ready to make the
race April 20. Judge Dewey was
c~ontesting delegate to the state re-
publican proposal meeting at Pierre
in January, 1914, but was not seated.

LOOK OUT FOR THESE
SWINDLERS OF FARMERS

From different sections of the
country come stories of swindle
successfully worked on farmers who
thought they were going to get
cheap groceries. Two smooth stran-
gers went through the communities
taking orders for a house in Chica-
go. pretending to sell standard
brand of sugar and -four so cheaply
that every farmer visited took from
$40 to $50 worth. and other things
besides. Because of the low prices
the -four and sugar had to be paid
in advance" 1t is alleged that in
one community the swindlers picked
up some $4,000 and no groceries
were delivered.

GETTING IN JAIL NOW
EASIER THAN FORMERLY

III things keep on as they have
been going for the past few years, IL
will be much easier for an American
citizen to go to Jail and stay there
than it will be to keep out of jail
Every now and then some individ.
ual or some clique bobs up with a
brand new plan for turning some
of us into criminals. The number
of new ways for getting man into
Jail is surprising. Wisconsin has
its "eugenic law" which makes it a
felony for couple to marry with
out undergoing a physical examina-
tion. The Illinois Legislature at.
its present session, will gravely con-
slider the passage of a similar GRIM
inal statute. Other States are be-
ing asked to pass laws making 1t a
felony for a citizen to have any Ii
quor in his home, even for medical
purposes. One State has law
against dancing the tango. The In
diana anti-cigarette law never has
been repealed, and the State has, as
a result, several hundred thousand
perfectly good citizens who could be
arrested and sent to Jail any day.
Perhaps the most striking develop
ment of our Government is that the
laws are not made by all the people
nor by representatives of the peo-
pie. but by small cliques. highly or
ganized and tremendously energiz-
ed over particular questions. These
cliques are determined to force their
views upon the whole people, while
at the same time other cliques are
forcing views on other questions
upon them. The question is never
asked whether the supposed offenses
against the community are as bad as
the penalties inflicted. There seems
to be in the air a mania to find new
ways of imprisoning American citi-
zens, and yet. is there anything that
can be as bad for the individual or
the nation as man in Jail who can
possibly be kept out?

At Cannea, the Carthaginians,

the enemy-ninety per cent. of the
