PAGES 5 TO 8. FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1893. CURRENT COMMENT. The Woonsocket News comes out strong for fusion in this state between the Democrats and Independents on the platform of refor-r-um in the manage ment of slate institutions. We would advise the News riot to press the matter upon its Democratic friends until the federal patronage is pretty well dis tributed. The Pops have been getting altogether too much as it is without asking the Democrats to' take them right into the family circle. And then the News doesn't really bell9ve all it. thinks it does about Republican cor ruption-^ Plankintou Standard: If Johnny Pease should be appointed receiver of the Mitchell land office there would be a sulphuric cloud hanging over the democratic camp. It would be a little tough so far as this particular office is concerned, for it •will be remembered that the Democrats were rather smoothly euchred out of the usufruct-of the same during the previous Democratic admiustration, thanks to Louis K. Church and some of the south ern senators. But we don't see how Pease can hope to be so favored when such thoroughbred Democrats as our own Mayor Welch and Hon. J. C. Ryan are In the field, either one of whom would make an admirable officer in every sense of-tlie term. Hon. James S. Clarkson, now chiefly of anti-Harrison notoriety, is credited with a scheme to push Geu. R. A. Alger for the next Republican presidential nomination. While there may bo no question of Gen. Alger's eligibility and ability and all that, there in great dan ger that-his boom will go to seed long before the convention of 189(i if it is started as early as this, even by so shrewd and skillful a political manager as Gen. Clarkson. There ought to be no occasion to urge the people of this town to turn out generously on next Monday evening, the occasion of the firemen's benefit concert. There is no organization in the community any more deserving of encouragement than the volunteer fire department, whose members are always on- hand when the property of the citi zens is endangered -and whoso services are but poorly requited if they are not met with the heartiest appreciation. More than this the concert itself will be a thoroughly enjoyable affair, as it will include the cream of the musical talent of Mitchell. "Standing room only" should be hung out in the opera, house lobby at an early hour next Monday evening. 5 The movement to enforce the prohi bitory law in' this town seems to. be under way and about the only thing to be' done by those who do not believe in the expediency of enforcement against an undoubted adverse public sentiment is to accept tho situation quietly until it works out its natural results. The enforcement of the law involves an ab stract moral obligation that no. good citizen can dispute. The practical re sults of enforcement under existing conditions can only be determined by a renewal of the spasmodic experiments of the past, but a great deal, of local friction can lie avoided if the matter is left to the parties directly concerned, the illegal sellers of liquors on the one hand and the agents of enforcement on the other. No particular disturbance will result If the general public will but refuse to be drawn into an argument pro or con on the subject and quietly go on about its own business. Burroughs Abbott or Columbia.. Brown county, has been appointed statistical agent for the state of South Dakota under the Agricultural depart ment. The salary will be $600 a year and he will enter upon liisduttes May 1. Mr. Abbott was an Independent state senator who helped to clect Senator Kyle. Major Diggs's Bank of Milbank has been forced to make an assignment, but he hopes to be able to realize on his as sets in time and pay all liabilities in full. His friends throughout the. stale aope that this may be the case. The Minnesota legislature has passed astringent anti-scalper law. ,'^hf It is a most hopeful sign of an improve ment in the times when threatening strikes, such as those of the World's Pair carpenters, the Toledo and Ann Arbor and the Santa Fe railroaders, are satis factorily adjusted without violence or injustice to any interests. These things show that the world is making progress and that a spirit of mutual concession and charity is of far more worth in adjusting the relations be tween capital and labor than all the laws that can be crowded on to the statute books. The Aberdeen News points with, jus tifiable pride to the fact'that its town was never in a more prosperous condi tion than at the present time. And no. town deserves more gooA fortune^ than our up-the-valley neighbor. Once more we are pained to note that a destructive, cyclone has just swept over the states of Kansas and Arkansas. Barring the ilttle eccentricities of April snow storms South Dakotans are still very well satisfied with, their spring weather, thank you. President Cleveland has established the precedent of sending $50 to parents who name their children after any member of the presidential family. He may find It expensive before his term ends, as a great deal of this sort of thing can happen In four ye&ri at a premium of $50. The pages of the Ruralist these days aro chiefly filled with' frantic appeals for help from the farmers to keep the paper alive. It would seem as though a concern that has had the show the Ruralist has.ought to be able to stand on its own merits and not ask for sup port as a matter of charity. The Pierre Free Press exults over the fact that the ladles of the capital city took so earnest an Interest in tho recent election. On the' other hand, the Sioux Palls Press is. scolding away because some of its feminine constitu ents presumed on' their suffrage 'privi leges sufficiently to vote at all. The Pierre Capital makes the follow ing prediction: It will be three years before another president will be nominated by the Re publican party but the Cajntal will ven ture the prediction that Governor Mc Kinley of Ohio, will be the nominee and that the campaign will lie fought along the line of protection. McKinley is the most popular man in the United States today. —f .. The Yankton Journal has changed hands so often In the past two years that two of our exchange editors have wheels in their heads keeping track of Its various publishers. But if the new men, Messrs. Hunt and Thompson, keep up the gait they have started'with we don't see any need of further changes. The appreciative brother of the Ar tesian Chronicle indulges in the follow ing flattering hyperbole: The Argus-Leader. is chuck full of gems that sparkle like frost in the morning sun but like the frost they soon pass away under the power of Bro. Wheelock's pen. That Is, flattering to our pen, but pos sibly not to be so taken by the A.-L. The State Agricultural College. The Regents of Education and the Trustees of this institution desire to assure the people of the state that the sessions of the Agricultural college are going right on, and will go on without interruption, and that all classes and all studies will continue according to the catalogue arid circulars. All young people are invited to come and' enjoy and profit-by tho opportunities offered. •••,€• The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway company, with a yiew to practi cal results in its South Dakota field, has located D. H. Moses, well known all over this state from his connection with immigration movements from 1880 to 1885,. at Sioux Palls as a World's Fair excursion agent. The Summer Term will open May 15,. and continue twelve weeks. Public school teachers, who are busy in their own schools the rest of the year, will find this Summer Term a fine opportunity to review or .to advance their studies. Drawing, wood carving, clay modeling,—useful accompllshtrients for every teacher—elementary algebra, physiology and hygiene, book keeping, grammar and elocution are among the many subjects taught during the sum mer term. Young men can. learn gardening, veterinary »surgerv, blacksmithing, carpentry, the running of the traction engine,,butter and cheese making, as well as a great many book studies.. Young women can learn sewing, cutting aud dress fitting. Expenses are kept at the lowest, and work for pay can be furnished many. J.W.SHANNON, President Board of Regents. E. T.
