VOTERS WILL BE IN.
KEPT BUSY
NUMEROUS MATTERS WILL
MAKE 1922 CAMPAIGN MEN,
ORABLE IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

Pierre, March 22.-Political lead
ers in South Dakota are already be-
ginning to scratch their heads and
ponder over the prospects of the
state campaign in 1922, and are try
ing to decide on just what issues ii
will be fought.
Never before in the history of the
states politics, they assert, have
there been SO many issues of about
equal rank and affecting so many
sections of the state and classes of
people as will be brought to the vote
of the people at the state election a
year from next fall. The five ini-
tiated measures passed by the last
legislature appear as stumbling
blocks in whichever direction lead
ers, look for a main issue.
On the matter of proceeding with
the proposed hydro-electric plant at
Mobridge. the northern part of the
state will line up in favor of the pro-
southern half will make a fight for
the defeat of the measure, hoping
that through it's defeat the location
may be changed to Mulehead and the
plant built on that site. In this
north VS.. south issue, both sides are
already mobiliZing their forces and
are preparing to start active propa-
ganda campaigns before the end of
the summer.
The question of changing the loca
ton OF the state university from
Vermillion TO Sioux Falls will be an
issue in the eastern part of the state
and particularly in the southeastern
part where Sioux Falls and Mime
haha county, with the largest popu-
lation in the state, will lead the for
ces favoring the change against Lin
coin. Yankton, Union ana Clay coun-
ties, leading the opposition.
The nonpartisan league will be
heard from in the fight for the state
owned and operated banking institu-
ton, asked for by the initiated petit
ton presented by Tom Ayres, non
partisan leader, and passed during
the closing days of the session.
While this will be an issue of state
wide interest, it will be fought out
in the localities where the league
has projected its organization and
has a strong following.
From the headquarters of r. o.
Richards at Huron will be directed
the fight for the repeal of the
states prohibition laws and the law
creating the office of state sheriff.
Richards has the reputation of con-
ducting a vigorous campaign on
whatever issues he selects.
1t is claimed that this fight will be
general over the STAKE between the
drys, opposing the repeal OF these
laws, and the vets, who believe that
the state should be prepared to re
ceive whatever liquor might be ale
lowed should the federal prohibition
laws he repealed or modified. The
state sheriff's office, it is pointed
out, was created primarily for the
purpose of enforcing the states
bone-dry law.
Other issues which may probably
be brought up will be referendum
by Mr.. Richards of the bills passed
by the legislature repeating certain
sections of his primary law and the
campaign thunder resulting from the
last almost solid republican legisla-
ture.

Rapid City Case
Into High Court

Rapid City, March ga hearing
recently was concluded before the
state supreme court at Pierre in the
action involving the appointment of
city manager for Rapid City. AT
the conclusion of the hearing the
court took the case under advise
ment.
The question involved is the va
lidity and constitutionality of the
state statutes providing for a city
manager, and whether, because OF
the alleged invalidity of the city
manager law the city commission
ers of Rapid City should be enjoin-
ed from canvassing the vote cast at

The trobule with the average
man is that he has been doing just as
little work as possible and trying to
get as much as he possibly and try

went on, sis to be Intellectually hon

Laws cannot remedy all our evils
because the criminals are just lit

"a certain man died and his wife
had for him a church funeral. The
minister told what great and good
man he had been.
"The reverend gentleman was SO
eulogistic that the widow finally
turned to her little boy and said !:
Danny, is there any other corpse in
the church beside your father?'
Now, made a speech the other
day in~ Cleveland, and before I arose
to address the assemblage the chair
