KILL THE BREWERS AMEND
MENT.

AlL4 ldE bhEW Ems AMEND
MENT.
A great deal Of discussion has been
aroused over the proposed brewers
amendment" to the state constitution.
The amendment is intended to let
the bars down a bit and permit the
manufacture of beer within the state.
But those who have given the amend
nent careful study say that 1t is a
cleverly written assault upon the anti
booze Law. going much farther than
the innocent looking document would
indicate.
; The fangs may be extracted from a
rattlesnake. and SO make the reptile
harmless for time. But unless the
snake is killed, the fangs will grow
back again. The passage Of this So
called brewers amendment would be
simply allowing the snake to grow
new fangs. and Oregon will be wise
to take no chances, but kill the snake
ct once. So long as there Is doubt
and conflict IN the Interpretation Of
some sections Of the proposed amend
nent. the only safe method would
be to vote against It. Oregon has re-
gistered her vote against booze. She
has pulled the fangs from the mere
tricious industry. Why not kin II so
that II may not inject its poison into
every campaign for years to come?
The state anti-saloon league issues
the following statement concerning
the "Jokers in the Brewers Amend
ment":
"The insertion Of a comma after
the words for medicinal purposes
and before the words upon prescrip-
ton OF licensed physician" makes
II possible for druggists to sell for
medicinal purposes without prescrip-
ton, and for physicians to prescribe
II for other than medicinal purposes.
at Is rule of law that person
does thing himself when he does II
through an agent. The old saloons
would open with the proprietor;
brewers agents in name, as they
were before in fact.
THE license law has been wiped
ont, as have all regulatory measures
so they would pay no license, sell t
children, intoxicated persons, habit
ual drunkards, at all hours. on al
days. Not only saloons, but poo
halls, cigar stores, barber shops, liv
cry stables, garages, candy and con
tectionery stores, soda fountains
drug stores, fruit stands, groceries
and ianitors Of apartment houses
would become agents as also th'
scarlet women who. for the most part
left us along with beer, their chic
procurer and drawer Of trade, while
brewery wagon drivers would worl
the home trade.
Since the local option law is re
pealed, these agents could go int
places formerly dry under the loca
option law, and outside of the incor
porated places where they we're be
fore barred BY statute now repealed
and to be superseded By this proposed
new constitutional measure.

WHAT 'CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

Decision NullifeS Act
Of State Legislation

The contention that the state leg
lslature Of South Dakota had no
authority to attach any part of the
Pine Ridge Indian reservation to
any organized county of the state
tor judicial purposes has lust been
upheld in an important test case by
Judge McGee, of the state circuit
court for the Fall River Penning-
ton county circuit.
This decision was rendered in a
case of an unusual character aris-
ing on the Pine Ridge reservation.
Recently Frank Good Lance, a
Pine Ridge agency Sioux Indian,
was arrested bv the chief of the
Indian police on the charge of wife
beating, and when taken before
Judge Thunder Bear, of the Indian
court, was found guilty and SEN
fenced to serve 80 days in the
agency Jail. Good Lance served
the term. and upon his release in
stituted in the state circuit court of
Fall River county a damage suit
against the chief of the Indian po-
lice, the Judge of the Indian court
and the United States Indian agent
in charge of the reservation, by
which he sought to recover 81, 900
for unlawful arrest and imprison-
ment. This was the first damage
suit of the kind ever instituted by
an Indian in the United States.
The federal government, through
United States Attorney Robert p.
Stewart. demurred to the complaint
of Good Lance, the contention OF
the United Sta1es attorney being
that the action could not lawfully
be instituted in the state circuit
court, and that the state Legislature
had no authority to attach the Pine
Ridge reservation to Fall River or
any other organized county for
judicial purposes.
Judge McGee, after hearing in
the case, sustained the contention
of the federal attorney, thus leav-
ing Good Lance without any stand
ing in court so far as his damage
suit was concerned.

Philip Likely to
Have Electric Lights

That the people of Philip are a
bunch of hustlers and believe that
their town should have the public
Improvements that a city the size
OF theirs is entitled to, is evidenced
by the agitation that is going on
over their way in regard to the
installation of an electric light
plant Last weeks Pioneer has
the following to say in regard to
the proposed plant.
AT a regular meeting of the city
council Monday evening the mat
ter of installing an electric lighting
system was taken up, and the pro.
position as made by Holcomb Bros.
of Wolsey, was considered. The
council appointed Mayor Driver
and Anderson Michael as a COM
mittee to go to Wolsey, inspect the
plant in operation at that place and
go into the matter further with its
owners. 1t is likely that a mem
ber of the firm will visit Philip
very shortly ard meet with the city
council and commercial club when
definite arrangements can be made.
The plant as proposed by Hol-
comb Bros, will cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000, and figuring
that at least 900 lights would
be put in here the proposition looks
like a good investment. Other
towns considerably smaller than
Philip are maintaining a first class
lighting plant with as low of 600
lights. We trust the city and the
promoters can get together on this
proposition as we are positive that
every business. man and nearly
every resident is interested in see
ing such an improvement to our
town.

IMMENSE WEALTH in BAD
LANDS SAYS CHEMIST
Value of Natural Resources Of That Section
Sufficient to Pay National Debt With
Valuable Minerals and Other Products

soil forms the finest fertilizer in the
world. Experiments along this
line have been carried on by Mr..
Chapman, the soil being mixed
with black soil to which nitrogen
had been added in the form of dried
leaves and sulphates. Using this
as a seed bed, results which are al
most beyond belief were obtained.
Corn stalks Is feet high with ears
10 inches long in the husk and Gu
cumber vines carrying 81 cucum-
bers are some OF the things which
he has grown in this way.
Properly prepared the Bad Land
soil will make excellent pavements,
while from it can be made high
grade fire brick and other building
material. With the addition of a
few other materials, most of which
can be found in the vicinity of the
Bad Lands, a chemical plant larger
than any now in existence in the
United Statss could be profitably
run. according to Mr.. Chapman.
Potash can be obtained lust across
the line in Cherry county, Nebras-
ka. and with the addition of this
and a few other materials, the list
of articles which could be manu-
featured and products which could
be obtained from the Bad Lands is
almost numberless. In them, in
Mr.. Chapman's belief, lies one of
the greatest assets which western
South Dakota has. and when the
process of development has once
started the wealth OF SI85, 900, 900
of gold which has been taken from
the Black Hills in the past forty
years will be exceeded.
Mr.. Chapman was former Rap
id City resident, living here for a
