Myron Kelsey Of Leicester was ar
rested on the charge of cruelty to ami
mails by Chief of Police George H..
Chaffee. He was arraigned before
Justice A. W. Dickens, pleaded guilty
and was fined $50 and costs, amounting
to $6O.85. 1t was claimed by witnesses
that Kelsey fed his stock poorly, his

viding that Kelsey kills the horse at

ply with the requirements of the court.

HOW PROSPERITY CAME.

Professor Wetherell Of Middlebury
College has been doing some good
work for the Republican cause through
the Peoples column of the New York
Tribune. He has written several letters
marked by clear statement and force
full appeal to the voters, In yesterday
Tribune he took up the prosperity argu-
ment, and said:
"Many an ordinary voter is being
caught by the Democratic issue OF
prosperity" when little analysis
would show him that our present pros
perity is produced largely by two con-
ditions, one absolutely disconnected
with any party and the other directly
opposed to all Democratic theory and
practice
"The enormous increase in our exports
is due, of course, to the European war
We are not only furnishing munitions
of war, but are helping feed and clothe
the nations while they fight. This con-
dtion creates demand for export of a
great range and volume of product,
both agricultural and manufactured.
Wheat, butter, eggs and clothing are as
necessary for war as guns and ammu-
milton, and we are supplying all these
at increased prices The Democrats
cannot logically claim credit for this
increase in exports unless they claim
credit for the war, which, of course,
would be absurd.
"The decrease in our imports, in some
lines amounting to complete cessa-
ton, is again due to the war. For IN
stance, we are cut off from Germany
almost completely. And since the war
prevents our importing many articles,
American manufacturers have sprung
up to supply the demand. In other
words, in many lines the war has es-
tablished conditions equivalent to a pro
tective tariff so high that it would be
prohibitive of imports. Yet the result
ing prosperity is claimed by the Demo
Gratis. So we have the strange paradox
of tariff for. revenue-only party claim,
ing credit for prosperity resulting from
conditions equivalent to a high pro-
tectve tariff.
"When the war ends our abnormal eX'
ports must cease, and at the same time
the door will be opened to imports from
the Central European allies. If the
Democrats are in power we shall &c
back on tariff for revenue only basis
What will happen to the American
industries built because of the tempo
rary shutting off of imports during the
war, but left unprotected after it? Evi
IDENTIFY they must go to the wall and the
workingmen employed in them must
lose their jobs. The business depress
sion of 1874, when we had the
Underwood Simmons tariff, but ne
war; points the moral.
president Wilson says we SHOULD
study the future. So we should. The
ordinary voter should not be lulled tt
sleep by present conditions. He shoult
thank God for prosperity and then use
his wits to keep it. He should not al
low the Democratic party to obtair
credit with him for prosperity which
it did not create and which its low tariff
policy will tend to destroy when thu
European war closes.

FIRST POLIO CASE IN BURLING
TON.

The first case of poiomyletis, more

A serious automobile accident oc-
Cured Sunday night on the Salisbury
road about seven miles from Middle
bury. Mr.. Washburn and son, Harold,
of Colchester were returning from
Rutland, where they had left Mrs.
Washburn with party of friends, and
when near the A. A. Boardman farm in
Salisbury they met another car going
in the opposite direction, Seeing
that there was not room enough to turn
out, Mr.. Washburn applied the brakes
in an endeavor to stop his car The
machine skidded, went over sIuice-
way and turned over throwing the oc'
cupants out Mr.. Washburn was taken
TO the house Of Mr.. Boardman and DR..
X. w. Prentiss of Middlebury was
called, also DR.. c. II, Dean of Salisbury,
who happened to be passing at the time.
It was found that Mr.. Washburn had
received several cuts about the face and
head and that one jaw bone was frac-
tured. He was badly bruised about the
shoulders and legs. Mr., Wa'hburn
son escaped with few scratches and
bad shaking up. The car was badly
damaged. Relatives in st. Albans
were notifed.by telephone and at once
came to Salisbury and took Mr., Wash
burn and his son home.

B AS GOVERNOR.

That South Dakota will remain in the republican column for
1916 seems to be conceded.
That Peter Norbeck will be the next governor Of the state is
likewise conceded, we think.
1t may be taken for granted, therefore, that the state Of South
Dakota will elect the entire republican state ticket and that Tie
legislature will be largely republican in both branches.
The question, then, arises with respect to the sort Of governor
MIR. Norbeck will be-whether he will SO conduct the Office as to pro-
mote the public welfare in every feasible way or whether he will
largely cater to politics and be governed in a great measure by
mere political considerations.
The Saturday News is not authorized to speak for Mr.. Nor
beck, nor does it assume the responsibility. What it has to offer
is but its own views.
1t will be greatly disappointed in the man if Mr.. Norbeck does
not place first and foremost the upbuilding of the state from both
an Industrial and q social standpoint.
1t will be Mr.. Norbeckas aim, we opine, to serve the people
rather than the politicians; to promote the welfare of the public
rather than merely to play to and for party; to utilize every legti-
mate avenue within the state to foster the development Of resources
OF South Dakota: to give the state such IN administration as will
justify the people in their confidence in the man.
True, Mr.. Norbeck is a republican, and he will continue to be i
SO that party governments, within reasonable limitations,
will not be ignored, we assume-bnt Mr.. Norbeck is first a patriot
and 9 true South Dakotan, and party considerations will not stand
IN the way Of efficiency and progress in state affairs with Mr.. Nor
beck in the executive chair.
