PRETTY GOOD, At THAT

There is nothing like having
friends, Mrs. Clarence Loves
mother shipped her a dressed goose
for Thanksgiving Day. Through
some error the goose did not
arrive until that morning and, OF
course. another goose or turkey
was already in prime condition to
form the central dish for that day.
The goose was wrapped in a neat
table spread and placed in cool
place out doors. Later on Mrs.
Love went out to ger the goose
received from her mother, it, like
Kirby, of Mclaughlin, had dis
appeared. Later on again, Mr..
and Mrs. Love were invited out
for supper by Mr.. and Mrs. James
Burns, who had as other guests
Mr.. and Mrs. Gene Truax. The
supper was every thing that could
he desired and the central dish
consisted of a we'll roasted goose,
bursting with dressing. After
supper the conversation drifted
around to the goose that had been
stolen and the table cloth which it
had been wrapped in. Mr.. Burns
then told how he had bought a
goose from bum that was
covered with cloth which was
worth far more than the amount
he paid and bought in the cloth.
Mrs. Love took one look and OF
course believed the story about the
bum Every one enjoyed
the goose to the limit; as Mr.. and
Mrs. Love had all of the goose
they wanted, got their table cloth
back again and Mrs. Love was re-
lieved of the task of preparing a
big feed" for her friends, so
everything is lovely and considered
a good joke.

CATION and is observed the same as

WILL SELL GOODS
REGARDLESS OF COST

In interviewing G.. M. BOekhOut,
manager of the Mobridge Furniture
Company about his fire sale, we
were told that he is determined to
close out his entire stock of goods.
In his determination to dispose
of his goods quickly he plans on
disregarding the wholesale price OF
the stock and let it go at almost
the buyers price.
He has already disposed of lot
Of the stock that was injured by
the fire and water. and still has
quite a bit on hand which he hopes
to soon dispose Of
1t is surprising how little some
Of the stock has been affected by
the fire and water. However, the
result is the same as an article Of
furniture that has passed through
a fire depreciates in selling value
a great deal even if not in quality.
The sale will be continued for
some time vet as Mr.. BOekhOut
plans on making the farmers
familiar with his bargains.

ARE STILL PROTECTED
BY INITIATIVE


Sioux City Jouinal We still hold
to the conviction, says the Sioux
Falls Argus.Leader that the in
itative has been destroyed as a
practical weapon of the people
under the decision of the supreme
court holding that the legislature
has the power to repeal laws en-
acted by direct vote.
In the light of the full record of
the recent test case, The Journal
cannot agree with its Sioux Falls
contemporary. The essential feat
ure of the supreme courts ruling
was that except in genuine
emergency-one actually threat.
ening the public peace or health
the legislature can only repeal
initiated laws subject to the refer
endum. The decision, as whole,
plainly shows that if Mr.. Richards
had gone into the court at the
right time and in the right way,
his primary law might still be on
the statute books, ready for use
next years campaign and in no
danger of repeal until the people
said the word.
The supreme court held that the
repeal Of the initiated law by the
legislature was legal, but it held
also in effect, that the emergency
clause OF the repeal measure was
illegal and that the court would
have so ruled had Mr.. Richards in
stituted referendum proceedings
within the time specified by law.
Had the court held that the re-
peal was legal and that the fake
emergency clause also was legal,
the initiative would in truth now
be destroyed 1.-THE emergency
clause was placed in the law
for the sole purpose of pre-
venting the referendum fro m
being called in. In declaring it
illegal the supreme court saved the
principle of direct legislation from
emasculatiOn. Its decision was OF
no avail to save the Richards law
for the reason that it was too late
to invoke the referendum when the
case was decided. With the record
as it stands, however, another
legislature could not repeal another
initiated primary law and get away
with it.
The rule in South Dakota here
after will be that the Legislature
can repeal an initiated law, but
that the repeal must be subject to
the referendum. By this arrange.

Poet S.s artist has never been able TO pestray
the grave in cOlors of brightness and beauty.
Bryant, in the Hymn of Death, " could not make
the subject beautiful and yet the cemetary with
it's marble and it's dead, the chair which has
cupant, the fancied echo of the silent voice, and
the vacant place in the home social and lodge life,
are mellowing and uplifting in their influence,
They ring best of human nature into the fullness
of vigor, crowding back the selfshness and imper-
iousness of men, and npressing them with the
beauty of recognition of the value OF friendship.
1t is the gloom of the churchyard that reveals to
us more clearly the beauty OF life. 1t is the broken
ties at the grave that prompts US to fuller APP
probation of the tenderness of the ties that are
not vet broken; and so while we mourn the loss of
our dead We may rejoice that there is no cloud so
dark that there is no light behind it, sorrow SO
poignant that there is not balm for the wound

Neither was there any indication ot the appearance of agents of any syn dicate intend upon grabbing of tho entire townsite. as some timid folks had protessed to dread as a possibil lty.
 It was a serious-minded crowd thai attended the sale. There was little hnarity attending the bidding, al though occasionally some fellow could be heard indulging in good naturet comment upon the price paid by some successful bidder But as a whole the buyers were evidently men in tent upon business which they wer, not divulsing to their numerous chance acQuaintances.
