upon the taxing authorities levied
taxes upon the boards, and the
land upon which they were erect
ed. When the taxes were not paid
the authorities sold the boards,
and removed them. They then col
lected the balance firm the owners
of the land.
As we have said there is not
much ground for complaint in
Haakon county or in South Oak
ota, but the time to control the
matter is now. We believe the com
ing session of our state legislature
should pass such laws as may be
necessary to curb this evil in its
infancy. We would not curb Leg
itimate local advertising of public
sales and other notices of a ten
porary nature but limits should
be defined. and beyond these when
once fixed roadside advertising
should not be allwoed to go.

PHILIP LOSES TWO GAMES
Pierre Takes Twelve Inning Con-
test Sunday-M Midland Wins
AT Old Settlers Picnic.

The Philip ball team have two
defeats recorded against them for
the week although both were fast
games and with good playing no
discredit can be attached to either
one. Both Pierre and Midland were
prepared for the fast Philip bunch
and had secured the country for
best material to be had.
The game at Pierre Sunday is
said to have been fine exhibition
of the national game and went for
twelve innings before the issue
was decided. Overgaard and Dor
othy did the battery work for
Philip, and while the game was
lost the pitching of Overgaard was
feature of the game although
Pierre had some of the best bat
tiers in that section of the coun-
try.
Pierre made her first score in
the first inning and added another
in the third. Philip made one in
the fourth and two in the fifth. In
the sixth Pierre put two across,
and Philip added one in the seven
tn, making the score four to four.
Thus the game stood until the
twelfth when the deciding run was
made by Pierre:

COBB HAS A GOOD TIME AT
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

That man Irving Cobb was ap-
parently in fair trim at the re-
publican national convention in
Chicago. II we may Judge by his
newspaper reports, but he had the
real time of his life at the demo
cratic convention. He received
one and half votes for the ncmi-
nation for the presidency on the
twenty-third ballot, leading Ring
Lardner by half vote. His para
graphs were pungent, to say the
least. Here are a few of the best
ones.
AT the convention A. Nit shell

the end became the quaking fight

"A selfrespecting wood-tick, con-
templating the system devised by
these free-born American rcople
for the selection of their presiden-
tial candidates, should return
thanks for the fortune that made
him a Wood-tlck.
s'One of the most foolish things
about that incredibly foolish and
cumbersome feature of American
life which is called national has
to do with the platform, so-called.
Several thousand humid, irritable
gentlemen gather in a convention
town and worry themselves into a
free lather over the exact phrase
ology of this or that plank in a
platform, when all the while they
should know if they know any
thing at all, that through the cam
paign the voters at large won t
care hoot about it, and that the
party to which they belong prob
ably will utterly ignore the pled-
ges to which it stands committed
! in the event Of victory in the gem
eral election to follow. 1t may be
recalled that eight years ago a
president was elected by the dem
ocrats on platform favoring sin
gle terms for president. That same
president is now completing his
second term, and in some quarters
I there is talk Of nominating him

ADVERTISING ON HAAKON
COUNTY HIGHWAYS

Naturally a newspaper, engaged
in the business of advertisin itself,
does not believe in either the value
or the artistic beauty of sign
board advertising. Yet we believe
that all men are agreed with us
that advertising by means of sign
boards along country highways is
a nuisance. If such advertising be
a benefit the local merchant cam
not reserve it to himself. Every
mail order house and quack nos
trum in the country may claim
the privilege Of such advertising.
Very soon the boards become dill
apidated, and most of them are un-
slightly enough from the start. Be-
sides the public highways them
selves belong to all the people.
Why should the bridges and other
public property be appropriated
by some individual advertiser?
Fortunately there is not much
ground for complaint in Haakon
county, but this sort Of thing
grows as the country grows older.
In many of the eastern states the
roadside advertising is an eye-
sore to the peaceful traveller. Thers
are times when one does not want
the informatin that Bolts Sells
Boots showed under his nose at
every turn of the road. This has
led some states to pass laws regu-
lating the matter. Even the feder-
al government has taken hand.
In Illinois it is . misdemeanor to
place advertising singns upon the
federal or state aid highways.
Some foxey store in Chicago tried
to evade the law by renting space
and placing their monstrous
boards well back on private prop
erty. One Of these was q we'll

Not long ago the writer was re-
monstrating through a couple of
interpreters with an old Sioux
Indian for not putting on the garb
and ways of civilization. He
replied with much grunting and
vigorous gestulation. Then the
two interpreters fell out over just
what he said. One translated it:
We shold let everyone live accord
ing to their own damned satisfac-
tion' and the other had it: I'VE
should be willing to let anyone go to
hell in his own particular way"
Whichever was right the old mans
philosophy came to the same thing
in the end. 1t will not be accepted
for a minute as a guiding princi-
pie by any of our reformers, but
this bit of Indian philosophy is
worth careful consideration Just

NEW RAILROAD RATES
WILL JOLT US

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission out of the largeness Of its
heart has granted sweeping rate
advances to all the railroads Pas
senger fares are to be advanced
twenty per cent and freight rates
for this region thirty-three and one
third per cent. The increases are
to become effectiveAugust 26. In
view of the fact that permission
to increase rates were not granted
until August 2, the railroads may
take pride in the alacrity with
which their accounting depart
ments were able to turn out the
new schedules. If a reduction is
ever ordered it will take the roads
at least six years of painstaking
calculation to arrive at the correct
rate.
We have tried to see pleasant
side of this matter but seriously
we believe that the new freight
rate will be something of calam-
ity for Western South Dakota. The
schedule may in the long run
have its compensations but we
doubt it. 1t looks as if it would
simply cost us more to get every
thing we produce to market, and
make the price of everything. we
consume higher. We doubt if there
is any place the new rates will
bear down heavier than right here
in Haakon County. As it is large
share of our living and other ex-
penses are simply freight. lie. this
burden is to be increased thirty
three and one-third per cent, it
will make some of us stagger.
Consider coal for example. Deal
ers tell us that about ten dollars
of the present price per ton repre-
sents freight. That being true
three dollars and thirty-three and
one-third cents will be added to
every ton of coal we consume.
You can work it out in the same
way for lumber, and the price will
stagger you. The same advance is
bound to come in the price of
everything else.
Instead of the lower prices we
have been hoping for this late in
crease in freight rates makes all
hope of this sort vain. Indeed, we
are apt to look back to present
high prices as one of the delights
of the good old times.
The new rates may be necessary.
But we should all know where
this thing leads to. Nothing less
than ruin lies at the end of the
lane. These mounting costs of liv-
ing cannot go on forever. Every
man of sense in the whole coun-
try has been sounding clarion
warning for months. Yet we go
on dancing the way to our finan-
cial death.
So far as Haakon county is con-
cerned, this thing will set back the
hands of our advancement more
than drought and a scourge of
grasshoppers combined. We hope
our pessimism will not be justified.
We will gladly be disappointed.
But must say we see nothing
cheerful in the situation now.
Mark our prediction costs will be
advanced, consumption will de-
crease and business man and farm
er and rancher will suffer alike.

Midland Z. Philip 6.

The locals went to Midland ON
Tuesday and played a game with
that place at the Old Settlers Pic
mic. Philip was weakened by the
loss of Wheeler and Hoover two
of their best players who were
called out of town. Even with
this handicap and in spite of the
fact that Midland was strength
tened by four of the best players
from Interior and an imported
pitcher, the game was theirs until
the ninth inning when lucky hit
after two men were down and two
strikes on the batter, brought in
two scores an won the game
for Midland by 6 to Z score.
