COMPANY MOVED INTO
NEW QUARTERS

The Sisseton Loan & Title Co.,
of Sisseton, has moved into the
building formerly occupied by H.
l.. Spackman on the main street,
and have remodeled that building
so that it is we'll equipped for the
business in which an up-to-date abb

PRINTING

sIssETON STANDARD, WIIlMOT
ENTERPRISE AND ROSHOLT
REVIEW DESIGNATED
legal PAPERS
This Leaves the County's Legal
Printing With Same Papers
as Heretofore

The county commissioners at
their regular January meeting here
this week named as official county
papers for the ensuing year the Ros-
holt Review, Wilmot Enterprise and
The Sisseton Weekly Standard. The
commissioners saw no reason why
there should be a change in the pa
pers handling the county's legal
printing, and voted unanimously for
their reinstatement.
We wish to take this opportunity
to extend our thanks and appNecla-
ton to the members of the county
board for their consideration in on.
behalf, and assure them the best OF
service and careful consideration to
the work which tncy have entrust-
ed to our care.
The Standard has been the county
legal paper for several years past
and this was the fl st time for sever
al years that it has had any COM
petition for this work in the local
field. However, the commissioners
realize that the county printing
should be published in paper that
reaches the people, as that is one of
the most important requisites, and
for this rason they could not give
any serious consideration to the
Sisseton Courier. The Courier and
it's political following pulled every
string and played every game known
to their slippery political experience
to turn this little trick, but they
failed once. The Courier went so
far as to tell the commissioners that
it had the largest circulation. etc,
but the exaggeration was too much
for the commissioners to swallow
all at once and they took the safe
and sane course and gave the print
ing to the same papers that have
handled this work the past year.
The local bunch of political pie
counter patriots met with somewhat
different conditions in this deal
than they experienced in unseating
the Nonpartisan League candidates
in the recent contest. Raw deals
lop-sided arguments and painful
technicalities failed to figure in the
case, and as a result the fond hopes
of the pie counter patriots went
glimmering.

GIRL31ST
MIR. LEO f. FLIGGE CLAIMS ONE
OF SlSSETON'S POPULAR
YOUNG LADIES FOR
HIS BRIDE
Wedding Occurred at the Home Of
MIR. and Mrs. ID. F.. Stevens
December Thirty first

On Friday evening, December 81,
at $3.50 occurred the marriage of
Miss Hazel Brewster to MIR. Leo r.
Fligge, at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
ID. F.. Stevens. The wedding cere.
mony was performed by Rev. Irwin
of the Presbyterian church.
To most OF the friends of Miss
Brewster, this was surprise, and
was not known by many Of the peo-
pie of Sisseton for the reason that
a few moments after this happy
union was made the bride and
groom left for Egan. Wedding an
nouncements the next few days
however. substantiated the rumors
we heard.
Miss Brewster is one OF the most
popular young ladies of Sisseton.
She has resided with her parents
Mr.. and Mrs. C. Brewster of this
city since little girl, until five
years ago when she entered college
at Mitchell and later taught school
at Egan for three years, after
which she taught in the schools at
Peever. 1t was at Peever that Miss
Brewster met Mr.. Fligge.
The bride will teach in the
schools at Egan for six weeks, fin
ishing the term there which will en-
title her to a life certificate. She
will then join Mr.. Fligge at Spring
Valley, Minn., where they will make
their home.
We are not acquainted with Mr..
Fligge, unfortunately for US, but the
fact that he is Miss Brewster's
choice is conclusive that he is a
gentleman in every way.
The Standard joins in wishing
this fine couple happiness through
out their welded life.

Education and Art

The word dictatorship" which
Russian Communists use to describe
their own monopoly of power in the
socialist state, implies that it will
be temporary 1t should last ac-
cording to the tactic theories of the
revolution, until the capitalist sys-
tenn has wholly disappeared in Rus
sia, until the former privileged rul-
ing class has been absorbed in the
general body of citizens, and until
the civil war and the external war
have ceased. Opponents are scep-
tical, and doubt whether the mo-
ment will ever come when the Com
munists will voluntarily renounce
the power which they have seized.
Power intoxicates, and history shows
few instances of voluntary abdica
tion, save in the hour of evident
failure and defeat.
There is one test to which one
may submit a dictatorship which
processes to be temporary. Does 8.
educate? 1t is difficult to believe
i'm the permanence of any despotism
over well-educated population.
Tsardom survived by reason of the
abysmal illiteracy of the old Russia.
and within certain limits one may
make case for some form of revo-
lutionary dictatorship, by pointing
to the hopeless ignorance of the
peasant masses. The Jesuits, who
set up their idyllic communist state
in Paraguay in the seventeenth
century taught music, religion, read
ing and writing to the gentle In
dian population, but they never ad-
mitted them to their own order, OF
shared with them their own scfen-
tific and literary culture. A despot-
ism, be it brutal or humane, must
rest on some obvious inequality be-
tween the rulers and the ruled. In
the modern class state the forms of
democracy are frustrated not mere
ly by the power of wealth, but also
by the gap in culture between the
propertied and the working class.
This must be said emphatically
for the Russian Communist party,
that it is preparing it's own eventual

The holiday season brought out
many social gatherings in Sisseton

to our attention was the one Christ
mas day at the beautiful and pic
turesque country home of Mr.. and

northeast of Sisseton, to which
the editor and family were invited.
There were in all about thirty
present, those from a distance being
Miss Maud Kellogg of Havre, Mont,
and Louis Hanson, brother of the
host, of Usage, Wyo.
The affair had been carefully
planned by Mr.. and Mrs Hanson.
and not detail was overlooked in
making the day one of real enjoy
ment and the occasion one filled
with the real, old-time Christmas
spirit and jollification. The after
noon was spent in listening to good
music and singing by the Hanson
brothers quartet, and other appro-
pirate and seasonable pastimes
The hostess had prepared a feast
fit for the gods, and as the hour of
six drew near supper was announced
and the guests assembled around the
festive board, where ample Justice
was done to the many good things
which had been provided in proper
