NoRBECK "MADE GOOD"

The Vermillion Republican. one of
the oldest and best known weeklieS
in the state says:
Peter Norbeck's announcement
that he will be a candidate for the
rovernorship for second term is
lust what has been expected for
some time. This paper is pleased
to be able to record the fact, how
ever, and hasten to assure him of
our hearty support against any and
all other aspirants to that position.
Peter Norbeck has prominently
made good" as governor, and is
Justly entitled to the honors of
second term. His announcement
will at least settle the contention
# his opponents that he was going
to let the governorship slip and go
after the senatorial toga. All
doubts as to his probable candidacy
now being set at rest, all doubts
rs to his succeeding himself might
Us well be banished also.

REMARKS BY MIR. CARR,

c. w. Carr, of st. Lawrence. s.
D., who is an exhibitor, said that
this very Mitchell stock pavilion Is
the institution which had put him
In the blooded live stock business
and had kept him at it. Il bought
my first thoroughbred bull at one
of these sales and five years ago,
on the goth Of February, / bought
at a sale held here by Sam Her
bert. a COW, paying s127.50 for
her. l sold her first calf for $3.50
and her next one for $3.50, which,
last animal was sold at Huron at
q stock sale. That COW now has
q bull calf at her side which will
bring $1,000 and with him, that
cow has raised II calves, and all
Of them have been very valuable
animals And because I came to
Berberts' sale and bought that
COW, remained on my farm when
was about ready to quit, and !
have erected a $4,000 house, q
fine barn and other buildings and
now l would like to see the color
of the mans hair who could offer
me money enough to induce me to
move out of Beadle county, S. D.,
and I lay it all to this Mitchell
pavilion"
Speaking of Governor Norbeck
Mr.. Carr said: II am a demo-
crat and like Governor Norbeck,
and l like his attitude toward the
farmers. l have not heard very
much about the nonpartisan league
In our part of the state. and
. do not believe that 1t will cut much
of a figure"

South Dakota has now had con-

months and continues to pronounce
IT good Police officers Of Sioux
Falls, where conditions are typical,
have made only 40 arrests for
drunkenness since the dry" law
went into effect. Similar arrests
for the corresponding six months
In 1916 in Sioux Falls numbered
969 Here is proof that local Of
ficers, backed by the state sheriff
and HIS constabulary, are enforc-

In small annual installments spread
over a large number of years, with
out so much hardship to the pur-
chaser or their families. The plan
is safe because the State would
give a contract Of sale and hold the
deed. The land would then be tax
able as well as productive.
South Dakota has about 5000
farm boys in the army today, many
of these will oe looking for homes
when the war is over. Shall we per-
NIT them to go to Canada and other
far away places and leave our own
state land idle and undeveloped !
This will not be necessary il this
amendment secures the approval OF
the voters at the next election. It
is all right to maintain an immi-
grafton bureau advertising to the
world the wonderful resources of
South Dakota and inviting settlers
to come here, but 1t is more I'm
portant to provide homes and OPP
portunities for the young men who
have grown up in our state, who
are familiar with our climate and
crop conditions, and who have shown
by their lives that they are the best
citizens that the country produces.
There are none better. 1t give
them a chance.
II you believe with me that we
should make the conditions upon
which our Young men may pur-
chase our state land, and secure
homes for themselves and families
ON easy terms at q low rate OF In
terest and have the installments

DRY GOODS MEN
TALK ADVERTISING
Newspapers Are Practically
Only Effective Medium
for Their Business.

One OF the important matters 20
be considered at the third annual
convention OF the Indiana Retail
Dry Goods association which will be
held in Indianapolis Tuesday, June
u is that OF advertising. Probably
no line Of business is solicited more
than the retail dry goods stores 10
advertise in unreliable and ques-
tionable advertising mediums. Ex-
perience has proven that aside from
the Gaily and weekly local papers.
other mediums OF advertising are
practically worthless. How To elm
mate the many kinds Of advertising
mediums and confine their advertis-
ing 10 their local papers will be one
of the subjects 10 be discussed by the
members.
The entire boards Of directors of
the Illinois and Ohio Retail Dry
Goods associations will be guests Of
the Indiana association at the con-
vention. They will take part in the
discussion on the questions sub
mitted 10 the question box which
will be one OF the main features Of
the day and evening meeting There
will be no formal banquet or set
speeches. the entire sessions being
given over to a discussion and the
giving of experience Of the members
on the questions submitted TO the
question box Blanks for these
questions have been sent the mem
bers in advance. These blanks are
headed Il want TO know and the
information thus drawn out through
a discussion of the subjects on which
the questions were submitted will be
of extreme value 20 the dry goods
merchants who attend.
The sessions of the convention will
be held in the Riley room Of the
ClaypoOl hotel. The convention
promises TO be the most interesting
ever held by the retail dry goods
merchants OF the state.

F AIMING DRAFT
TALK HARMF I'll
LabOrerS Believe Move to
Mean All Work and No
Pay for Them.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-Talk of
consumption of farm labor has done
more harm than good TO the inter-
ests of increased food production,
according to officials of the depart
ment of labor Reports which reach
them daily indicate that many
farmers interpret the CONSUMPTION
idea to mean labor with no COM
pensation, the farmer to reap all the
profits.
zone Of the most important south
ern railroads made canvass of
farmers recently and submitted the
results TO us" said G. L. Clayton,
whose principal mission is TO pro-
vide workers for the shipyards to
carry out the plans of the shipping
board of the council of national de-
Tense. These reports showed a
woeful lack of knowledge Of what
the government is trying to do.
Agents Get Reports.
These farm labor requirement
reports were collected by the agents
of the company and were submitted
10 US. Here is one. This farmer
says he needs 10 men and will pay
81 a day. Here is another who
wants 20 men and will pay $3.50
day
Here is a more enterprising man
who says he can get hold of some
good farming land cheap and can
use IS men. He offers 81 day. He
can see big profits at that price.
Take the ordinary compensation
for labor and compare it with these
figures. There is an eight-hOur day
practically everywhere except on the
farm. To do a mans work on the
farm means close to Il hours. Ev-
erybody who has ever had anything
70 do with a farm knows what a
farm day is. And the best he could
expect from the figures collected by
this railroad company was 50 a day.
WORT be Strengthened.
THE great trouble is that the
farmer of this type is expecting the
government will be in such dire
straits for food that he will get his
crops sown and garnered for moth
ing. That cannot and will not be
the case.
"Conscription under such condi-
lions would mean slavery. Cultiva-
ton of public lands, if the proper
authorities decide a national emer-
Cency demands stringent action,
would change the whole situation.
Under such conditions men impress
ed for farm labor would be working
for the government: it would be the
same as though they were sent 10
the trenches. But the machinery Of
the department OF labor and other
governmental departments and bu-
reaus has been working out plans
which will make CONSUMPTION I'M
necessary"

The Business Of the
United States is Now
The Business of War
By MARTIN EGAN

We are in a zeal war. We are in
large war. We are in war that
must test even our great strength
and forces. We are in a war that
will take from us heavy tribute in
various forms.
If we unite for its prosecution, and
intelligently bring TO its prosecu-
ton all of our resources, we can has
ten it's victorious termination; but
to the extent that we fail in unity,
promptness, and intelligence of &C
ton, we shall pay in the blood of
men and the tears of women.
Failure and faltering behind the
lines are as disastrous as failure
and faltering in the front lines
they translate themselves into dis
aster for the front lines.
Wars no longer are fought by ar
mics alone; they are fought by ma
tions in arms. had the oppor-
tunity during the struggles at the
Somme, and around Gorilla, to visit
Great Britain, France, and Italy,
and l found them nations organized
for war. 1t was the chief impress
has become their business.
War has become the business of
the United States. 1t is not my bus
mess individually, nor specifically
your business, but emphatically it is
our business jointly. grim though it
be.
We cannot all 90 to the trenches,
or TO the ships, or TO the workshops,
or to the farms, or to the hospitals;
but every one Of us can line up for
valuable service in the supports be-
hind the front lines. There is place
and a need for every one in that
greater army behind the fighting
line.
All Should Act Promptly
Some of us will be called and
told what to do. Others of us will
be shown what TO do. All of US
should reason il out intelligently
and practically. All of us should
act promptly. It will be helpful
too, if we do il cheerfully.
The first national call to Ameri-
cans for united service is TO fur
nish the money for the prosecution
of the war, the money without
which we must make a joint but
none the less ignOminious failure.
This is not the particular business /
of me, or of you, or of the banks,
or of the rich, but it is the COM
mon concern of every man, woman,
and child in the United States. And !
it is the particular duty of every
one of them possessed of $50 in
cash or credit, or the strength TO
earn $50 between now and the last
call on the Liberty loan. Don't
leave it to somebody else, but make |
sure that it is done by doing il your !
self. For various reasons only a /
few of US can fight; thank God most /
of us can pay. Let's do il, and do
il now.
The Liberty loan is the first big |
national test that actual warfare |
has brought Us. To the extent that |
we fail 10 meet it and il successors |
we shall pay in coin dearer than
money.
