It will lie noted, too. that our news service in funeral, from day to (lay. is as full and as timely as that which is obtained from out-side papers which' reach here the same day. Very often we give our readers news of some important event twenty hour.- in advance of the time it would reach them in outside papers. ur general new.- is made up in St. I'aui every eveiiinu'. stereotyped and forwarded to ns by express, and it reaches us the following day at lu:!!t.i a. m. It tinds its way into our columns the day it is received. When it reach es our readers it give- them the news of the previous day and that is precisely what the same day's Sioux City .lournal and Sioux Kail.- I'ress furnish them. The point we wish to make is that, so far as the general news is concerned. THK KKI'I HLK'AN furnishes such A re liable and complete resume of it that persons taking no other paper need not Teel that they are missing any import ant news of the country and the world.

I KIN All will admit that, a- the -Late of South Dakota "rows oMer. wealthier and mo uniformely prosperou- the necessity will come for bringing the railroads undet regulation- that will reduce transportation chai'ii-'sand make them uniform to and from all point.-. Hut it. must also be admitted that there is some ijue-l ion about the ad visa Id 1 it of rigid regulations being put into force under present conditions. The com ltallies operating in the state are .-bar ing with other people the losses result ing from crop failure and general de pression. They have been compelled to reduce expenses, but perhaps have done so with as little inconvenience to the public as possible. Tliev have shown a generous disposition towards the people of various sections. by furnishing through eoenty commissioners a largo amout of coal free of transportation c,barges. They have paid to the state the amount of their taxes two months in advance of the time they were due. These things are worthy of just consid eration by all our people, ami while they should not be instrumental in barr ing out just regulations, they should have some weight in the premises. They should be taken as a reminiter that regulations which would be all right under ordinary conditions would seem unjust, under existing circumstances. The intercuts of the shippers, the pro ducers and the. people generally, as well iistho»e of the roads, should be consid ered. however, in the enactment of a new law. licriy Kleeted .senator. LITTLF.

Butte City is in Boyd county, Xeb., which borders on the reservation countic- of South Da kota. rtaiti t'otatocs. The commissioners of this and other counties have taken steps to buy seed wheat and seed corn for spring planting and we understand the railroads are readily co-operating in the matter. This action is right and proper, but we wish to call tho attention of all con cerned to the importance of furnishing potatoes for planting. We believe that in this way some encouragement, might be given which would resr.lt in thcie being a larger acreage of potatoes planted than usual. There is no surer crop than potatoes and no crop yields better returns to the acre than potatoes. They are marketable at home and abroad ami arc an article that takes as important a place in the culinary de partment of the household as any (it her. Our soil is well adapted to potatoes and many fanners are so situated that they are able to oiipply their potato patches with irrigation if the season should short on moisture. We hope the com missioners will consider this matter and prepare themselves to furnish seed potatoes, as well as wheat and corn. io those unable to otherwise supply t.hem -elves.
