went down in defeat before the gigan
tic Howard ClIege team at Gallatin
on Friday evening The game was
hard fought, and was a much better
contest than the size OF the score
would indicate. The Columbia las
sizes were greatly handicapped be
cause of the smallness of the gymna
sum in which the game was played
and on account of the size of their op
ponents.
According to reports received here
some members OF the Howard College
team stood some five feet, ten inches
in gym shoes.

THE ANSWER IS COOPERATION
The organs of big Business"
have at last discovered that out in
the Middle West the farmers and the
members Of organized labor are get
ting together for the purpose Of put
ting through a well-defined program,
and they are alarmed, as they have
reason to be.
The New York Times, which de-
votes its editorial columns to special
privilege, has this to say:
s'FAFm and factory are about as
congenial as oil and vinegar. The
farmer Is consumer Of commodities
In which labor is the chief item Of
cost. The laborer Is . consumer Of
the products Of the soil. 1t is to the
Earmefs' interests that labor shall
Be kept low. the laborer's interest
that food shall be kept low
That's "old stun" 1t has been
used by the exploiting interests for
many years, but the workers on the
farms and the workers in the cities
cannot longer be deceived BY 1t.
The farmer is the city workers
best customer. The city worker 1s
1.-THE farmers customer. Each is in
!terested In the welfare Of the other.
The farmer has discovered that
he receives about 50 cents out Of
every dollar that the city worker
pays for farm products.
The city worker has discovered
that he receives less than IS cents
ont Of every dollar that the farmer
pays for the products Of mill and
lmine.
This is the discovery that has
brought the city worker and the
country worker together.
They have discovered that some
one is working them, and that this
someone. WHO PRODUCES MOTH.

Of charities and corrections with
which to make Irvine, it was impos-
sible to turn out good grade OF
Irvine. In fact, the fall of 1920
found them with million and a half
pounds of Irvine unsold. This repre-
sents one-half the output of the
ers would not be bothered with Irvine
that was uneven and could not stand
the strain of the knotter in binding,
and the further reason that each
ball manufactured in the state Irvine
plant. 1t is said, was from SO to 100
feet shorter in length than that turn
ed out in other factories, which fact
the farmers soon learned, caused
them to buy Irvine made by civilian
labor, and they profited by paying an
enhanced price for the good Irvine.
with the result that our state-own-
ed and politically operated plant was
obliged to shut down LIST fall. This
meant that 23O inmates, all willing
to work, were forced to languor in
the unsanitary cells without any
cells without running wa
ter and with improper ventilation.

because they were convinced he was
not guilty OF the crime for which he
was sentenced to the penitentiary
In recent issue of the Argus-Lead-
err, the editor Of which is member
Of the board of charities and corr
rections, stated that Hubbard still
had long time to serve unless the
board of pardons acted on his case.
So in turn we throw down the
gauntlet and ask what legitimate
excuse can be offered in support OF
the retention of such men on the
board Of charities and corrections.
We are proud to confess our inno-
cence in being free from any affilia-
ton or connection whatsoever with
the state Republican machine gang,
who seem to glory in the detention
of apparently innocent men in the
penitentiary, much to the discredit
of our great state. 1t is a we'll es-
tablished fact ever since the birth OF
this commonwealth the state peni-
Tertiary has been controlled by re.
publican pie eaters. Surely the time
has come when the educational,
charitable and penal institutions be
taken out Of politics. This board of
charities consists of five members
The terms Of two Of them will soon
expire and, in all fairness to the tax
payers of the state, we would sug-
gest that our governor appoint
other than republicans. We would
suggest that the two parties having
cast the most votes for governor at
the last election each have repre-
sentation Of two members on this
board, and the weaker party have
the odd member, and in this way
break up, at least in part, the gang
rule at the penitentiary. In so doing
the unfortunates will get Justice
and, no doubt, the tax payers will
find 1t more economical way to run
the penitentiary. To continue in OPP
Grafton as 1t has been and is being
run. we must look for increased
taxation for maintenance of the
penitentiary. In 1919 the state Irvine
plant run $ss,000.00 behind, not
withstnding this state has one Of the
finest equipped twine plants in the
country. But because Of the inferior

MORE ABOUT OUR STATE PRISON

MORE ABOUT OUR STATE PRISON
At different times since the early
part OF 1918, the name OF Thos.
Hubbard, "a convict at the S. D.
penitentiary," has come into print.
During Norbeck's administration as
governor, Mr.. Hubbard succeeded in
getting contraband letters out of
the penitentiary, unknown to the
ohicers thereof until they found
them in print in one of the Sioux
Falls papers. In these he exposed
some Of the brutality imposed upon
the inmates by officers Of the institu-
ton, many Of which we find were
justifiable accusations. AS we all
know, our constitution forbids cor
poral punishment but. notwith.tand-
ing this. corporal punishment seems
to have been administered freely by
the oflicers not unknown to the then
board Of charities and corrections,
nor Peter Norbeck. Some Of the Of
fcers who administered this parti-
cular kind Of punishment are still
employed at the pen, and some Of
them, then members Of the board Of
charities and corrections, are yet act
ing in the same capacity. Politics
and inadvertency rule the peniten-
tifry and conclude the destiny Of the
inmates. which is evidenced in the
Thos. Hubbard case. While this
state has no legally constituted
board to act upon indeterminate
sentences. the board Of charities
and corrections has assumed this
authority and, at their June, 1921,
meeting they gave this man Hub.

When fond recollections present
them to view;
The Warden. the Deputy and lit
tie Willie Hazen,
And all the little Huns that in prison
] knew.
Yet one thing / can but recall
with shudder,
wonder that live now the story
to tell;
OF how 1 was caked with the old
filthy bucket,
The erm-breeding bucket that sat
in my cell.
How oft, as convict, when re-
turning from working,
1 came from the shops where long I
had toiled;
l breathed from the bucket where
microbes were lurking,
The old slop bucket, unclean and all
soiled.
might have caught typhoid, mar
asmus or measles:
l wonder that ever lived to endure,
For using that unhygenic old
bucket,
Instead of employing sanitary sew
I thought it was bad from the
brim to receive it,
The draught so depressing never
could please;
All, wise / was, for 1 neve. colud
believe It;
That the bucket did not contain
germs of disease.
Twas strange that in days OF early
confinement
The bells Of the prison had not toll
ed my knell,
For breathing bacteria out o, that
bucket,
That non-sterile bucket that sat in
my cell.
