Pierre, Jan. 6.-The question has
arisen as othe rights of dealers in
gasoline granting exemption to per-
sons living outside of South Dakota
but living near South Dakota town
and buying their gasoline within the
state under the motor fuel" tax
which went into effect on January /
and by which each gallon of ga }
line used in motor vehicles on the
highways of South Dakota" is as
sessed one cent per gallon.
This matter has been taken to the
attorney general and he has given it
as his opinion that these persons can
be exempted for the portion of the
gasoline not used in making the
the trip between their filling sta
tions and the state line.
1t would seem it would be legal
to estimate the amount of gasoline
required to make these trips though
this may be difficult though it is
expected the state will lose money
by the estimate.
Tourists, however, buying gaso-
line in the state will have to pay the
tax

RICHARDS SETS
FORTH POSITION
BEADLE COUNTY MINORITY RE-
PUBLICANS ADOPT PRINCE
PLES-DENOUNCE MAJOR
TTY.

Huron, Jan. 6.-The protesting
minority county proposal, signed by
about 20 republican proposalmen,
was filed with the Beadle county au-
ditor. These different proposals are
merely an orderly way to prepare
the issues and the ballot for the pri-
mary election on March %.
This minority county republican
proposal is declared by r. o. Rich
ards to be protest against the re-
publican majority state proposal
which fails for the second time to
propose a well-defined and definite
public policy as paramount issue,
to remedy prevailing evil conditions
evidenced by high taxes, by contrac-
tion in finance, by disorder in eco
nomics, and by increase in crime,
when we were promised less under
prohibition"
AT the county proposal meeting
last Tuesday Richards deplored the
fact that "the state proposalmen
failed to propose a single well-defin-
ed paramount issue either as ma
jority or minority constructive pro-
gram. The world is waiting for
light to clear the cloudy conditions, y
he said, "but the republican machine
has nothing to offer in the county or
the state.'
He declared the majority platform
of 26 typewriter sheets containing
a score of planks ''was largely de-
voted to self-praise of the machine
or the party and without a single
constructive plank. There is nothing
for us to do" he said, "than to try
to build from the bottom up by first
starting minority county proposal
and carry the county first and later
enough counties to carry the state. "
at is evident" he said, 1--WE can
not build from the top down since
two opportunities for representative
state proposals have gone by with
out single constructive well-defined
public policy being proposed"
The Beadle county minority repub-
lican proposal declares for the fol-
lowing principles for the party coun-
-
ty platform:
"For the purpose of starting dis
cussion of taxation in Beadle county
and try to educate the people on the
general principle Of Standardization
of value, by law, to effect justice,
we propose and endorse the princi-
Piles of Standardization of the as
sessment Of real estate values for
five or 10-year periods and thereby
enforce constitutional limitation OF
bonded Indebtedness and restriction
of the tax levy and thus effect lower
taxes by the legal limitations now
broken down, also by more just dis
tribution of taxation and by re-
trenchment in expenditures and less
waste"
The core of the foregoing princi-
pies is to lower taxes by standardi-
zation Of assessment and levy and
by retrenchment and by just distri-
button Of taxes and less waste. The
following ballot motto was selected
as the county summary of princi.
pie:
Lower taxes by smaller expendi.
lures and less waste"

ROIER SHOWS
COACH MAKES
TEAM FAMOUS
Reared in Fighting Atmosphere
Princeton Mentor InstiIIs
Spirit in His Victorious
Eleven.
BY Joseph 8. ROGERS.

v
AIEW YORK, Nov. 19-Bill Rop-
~ er has clearly demonstrated
that It Is the coach that
makes the team famous, and not
vice versa.
The famous Princeton mentor,
who with ordinary material,
brought his Tigers to supreme
heights in Eastern football with
victories over Yale and Harvard,
has set a record unparalleled in
modern gridiron history. There il
just one reason for Princeton's su-
premacy-Bill Roper.
Roper represents Germantown,
rich in lore Of the RevoIulio.i.Iy >
days, in the Philadelphia city coun-
Gil. He was reared in q fighting
atmosphere. The statues Of heroes
of the days 177s Stud Germantown.
Roper has gazed at these
statues and certainly he realized
that 1t was American spirit more
than actual war technique supre-
macy that brought the original thir.
teen States into being.
1T WAS FIGHTING SPIRIT.
It avs fighting spirit, instilled
by Roper into Princeton, also q
town effervescing with historical re-
nown, that was responsible sor the
victory over Yale.
Take a coach raised In q town Of
the Revolution, coaching q college
| team in a colonial town and you
have a combination that defies de-
| feat.
Even more interesting 10 the fact
that Roper IL a Quaker. Before
| he went to Princeton Bill went to
| William Penn Charter School in
/ Philadelphia. He went to Quaker
meeting every Wednesday as part
of the school curriculum and learned
that while the orthodox friends have
peaceful ideals there are none who
fight with greater zeal when the
occasion arises. The writer, a grad
uote of Penn Charter, once heard
Roper address the football team Of
that institution, as follows:
You've been taught the best foot.
ball known. But you can't be taught
to fight. II you're fighters you'll
win the big game. Get out there on
the field and give 'em he'll"
1t is presumed that Roper made
! just such an address to the Prince
ton team before the Yale battle. Out
rushed. but never outgamed, the
Tigers won a victory impressive
more as showing real fighting spirit
than football genius.
ROPER GETS CREDIT.
All credit to the Princeton players,
| but the greatest credit must go to
the man who knows more about
fight, due to his rearing and educa-
ton, than probably any other foot
ball coach in the country.
Princeton's victory o8r Yale, how
ever. was outdone from q surprise
standpoint by Browns 3.to-0 defeat
| Of Harvard. Browns victory Is even
more remarkable when II 10 con-
sidered that the Providence players
completely outrushed their opponents
in late season game. 1t 10 almost
without precedent that big three"
team should be beaten by an outsider
at the end Of the gridiron year. Con-
slider that Yale beat Brown 20 to 0
and the Bears brilliancy II all the
more impressive.
To Brown and Princeton must go
the honors Of furnishing the great.
est display Of fighting spirit. and
| causing the biggest upsets Of the
| Eastern RridirOn season
