J COUNTY $ >. THURSDAY, JANUARY is 1913.

There seems to be some uneasiness
regarding possible differen ce that
may arise at the peace councils in an
attempt to harmonic President Wlt-
sons plan of league Of nations,
and the French plan Of balance of
power as expressed by Premier Gle
menceau. Until the two plans are
more fully explained it is little
difficult to distinguish between them.
The fact is that both systems have
been tried in limited way. and both
have failed to prevent wars. The
balance of power failed to prevent
the European war. The United
States government is composed ola
union Of states. which is in effect a
league of nations. yet this failed to
prevent the South from trying to
break the league. In any combina-
ton of nations for the purpose of pre-
venting wars there must be an honest
determination on the part of all Of
them to support the principles of the
combination. Germany has held in
the past that might makes right, and
that anything that was to her advan-
tage to do she was justified in doing.
So long as any member Of a league Of
nations holds to that view no balance
of power and no league Of nations can
prevent that country from violating
its agreements. Germany had taken
part in the Hague councils and had
agreed to many of the principles on
which this tribunal was founded. yet
she violated every one of her agree
ments that she found it to her advan-
tage to violate. A league of nations
is wise policy at this time. and yet
should one of the nations included vi
olate it's agreements the others would
necessarily have to rely on balance
of power inherent in them to enforce
the DEGREES of the league. Unless
the league could hold balance of
power it would be useless, so there
doeen't appear to be 80 much differ
ence between the views of President
Wilson and Premier Clemenceau after
all. The principal difference is that
Wilson is figuring on how to organize
league. while Clemenceau is fgur-
ing on how to enfovce it.

We sometimes hear it remarked
that the people should now forget the
acts Of disloyalty manifested by somo
Of our citizens, and now that the war
is over. in the interest of harmony,
return to former conditions. This is
impossible. The possessor Of two
emblems may for years regard both
as of equal value. But when they
are tested, and one is found to be
only cheap metal washed with gold.
the possessor can no longer place tho
same value upon both. The war has
tested the loyalty Of our citizenship.
While most Of our citizens have stood
the test some have miserably failed.
and they have shown that their couc.
Try can not depend upon them in times
Of need. No matter how hard we
may try. the citizen with only, q thin

press delegates now o1'a vlsit TO Great
Britain. His majesty spoke warmly OF
the gallantry Of the Dominons troops.
and exchanged recollections of his
empire tour of 1901. When Mr.. Pirani
Of New Zealand mentioned the name
of Maggie Papakura, the Maori guide
who conducted the king round the hot
springs wonderland of Rotorua, the
king recalled her at once, and WAS in
terestcd to learn that she is now in
England. The New Zealand delegates
found that Princess Mary knew all
about the pre-war Maori prophecy con
cerning the battle-cruiser New Ica-
land--that she would go into action
within given number of years and
would be hit but escape serious dam,
age If her captain wore n Maori tiki
(greenstone charm). The first part Of
the prophecy came true. and SO up to
date has the second. The captain
does not forget to wear his tiki.

: The plan to make thorough survey
of the possible power sites along the
Missouri river. with the preparation
of reports on the cost of construction
at each place, may be all right. but
unless the estimates are more accur-
ate than the engineering estimates on
the cost of Hog Island ship yards it
will be of little use. The cost of
constructing an electric power. plant
would mean an expense Of millions,
and the construction Of transportation
lines would mean other millions. AZ
a lighting proposition in a sparsely
settled country like South Dakota il
would be losing proposition. Its
success would depend altogether upon
the prospect If securing manufactur.
ing plants to utilize the power.

The South Dakota legislature gave
a rather severe but we'll deserved slap
at New York City in joint resolu-
tion passed last week. Calling atten-
tion to the fact that the Mayor of
New York had appointed a reception
committee to welcome home coming
soldiers, and had made as chairman
William Randolph Hearst. the resolu-
tion urges congress to provide for
landing the soldiers at some other
port. The appointment is an insult
to the soldier boys, and while this
resolution may not change the course
Of the transports it puts South Dako-
ts in the right attitude.

HAD Good POINTS
Hot Tempered Woman Evidently
Not Altogether Bad.
Surely No Hgh-Priced Lawyer Could
Have Surpassed Pathetic Plea
OF Husband Which Won
Her Her Liberty.

There was a negro family living in
a VIGOROUSLY ungovernable temper,
usually taking 1t out on her husband.
who was meek and lowly. On this oc-
casion she struck him with q skillet.
inf1icting wound SO painful and dam
gerous as to necessitate his having to
be taken to the hospital for treat
ment. The neighbors, knowing the
violent temper Of the wife, and the
cruel treatment she had inflicted upon
her husband for such long time,
were SO outraged they could endure II
no longer, and procured warrant for
her arrest on the charge of assault
with deadly weapon.
The husband sat through the trial,
giving rapt attention to it's every de-
tail. The case was handed over to
the jury and after very brief delibera-
tion 1t brought in verdict of guilty.
The old darkey husband rose and
said:
''Afarse Jedge, I don't reckon moth
ing ole niger could say would make
much diffunce, but / would lax to say
a word before you send the 'old oman
to the penitenshy. She's always been
q good mother to the chillun, all the
neighbors will tell you that. She
washes and scrubs and sews and
mends for 'em, and keeps 'em clean
and nice, an when they's sick she sits
up with 'em at night. And, Marse
Jedge, jest want to ak you if you
won't let her go by the house and sec
the chillun befo' you send her to the
penitenshy. They's at home all alone
right now. cryin' they po little hearts
out and it would do 'em good, and the
ole oman, too, II she could just &C
and kiss 'em good-by befo' she was
put In the penitenshy."
BY this time the judge and the spec
tators We're in tears and the judg'
said: Gentlemen of the jury,
haven't passed sentence yet. and i
you want a few minutes to fnrthe
consider this case, will be glad t

The Wolrd is at the brink of starv-

us Armenia is perishihg. The dem
ands upon the United States of amer
ica for division Of her food supply
with the starving peoples of the Earth
were never so great as now.
Last year, South Dakota stood first
among the states of the Union in the
production of food. This was in a
large part due to the Boys Working
Reserve. They did splendid work
in substituting for our 32, brave
men who were soldering at the front.
The demands upon South Dakota
for large food supply this year will
be even greater than in 1913. In
order to meet this unusual situation,
we must again have the help Of our
