CITY OF PHILIP
VOL V. No 19.
That big referendum billot is
referred to by a state exchange as
one that only tall men are expected
to vote. These outside that class
have got their mouths shaped to
say, "No."
Papers in territory tributary to
Philip have done fine in advertising
this week's fair. In behalf of the
association and the local business
men generally the Review extends
hearty thanks to the newspaper
boys and girls for their good words.
Editor Mix. of the Fort Pierre
Fairplay, has entered upon the
fall campaign with a strenuous
attempt to pull off a hippodrome
stunt, one foot on the elephant
and the other on the donkey. His
efforts to go through with the ier
formance bring him well within
the eastern woman's description of
a cowboy, "half boy and half cow."
An admirer of Roosevelt is one
thing, a Roosevelt maniac is
another. It sometimes seems,
though, that the former are very
much in the minority. The ex
president is human and liable to
err, though still being a man of
admirable traits and one very
popular with the American people.

The fair at Kadoka last week,
which promised a good time for
those attending, was made a Hat
failure by heavy rains. The pro
moters are consoled, however, by
the knowledge that the rain an
swered the needs of the settlers ad
mirably, and that they were in
splendid company the directors
of the Butte county fair at Belle
Fourche called off their fair on
account of the storm, and the
visitors to the Interstate fair in
Sioux City found the floodgates of
the heavens opened upon them and
had to wade out of the park.

"The Iowa idea" is welcoming
new converts to the cause every
day. That is as it should be. The
thinking man will soon determine
that two-county division is the logi
cal solution of the problem as it
now is, and that it is good for the
men in the west, the north, the
south and the east parts of the
county. We are safe in giving
the assurance to our readers that
this plan is the only one that can
win, and those who are supporting
the Sterling or Jackson movements
are supporting no-division, as those
who are heading the schemes meant.

Philip Weekly Review
The Review of Reviews of Stanley County"
PHILIP, STANLEY COUNTY, S. D. THURSDAY. SKIT. 2t», 1910.
Dolliver used to say, "when
Maine goes democratic, hell will
be full of Methodikt preachers."1
The simile was of course intended
to be taken in the Pickwickian
sense. But nevertheless Maine
has gone democratic and there is
quite a demand for Methodist
preachers on earth that can't be
tilled. —Draper Democrat.
The attorney general of Iowa
is after the express companies on
their charges, and this state is
after them on taxes. Other
states will get in line so far as
these present day robber barons
are concerned, and it is to be hoped
that if they have so strongly en
trenched themselves as not to be
subject to present laws that enact
ments will be secured which will
bring them down to earth, and give
the people a chance at some point
along the line.—Pierre Capital
Journal.
Uncle Joe Cannon has received
an offer to go into vaudeville, at a
salary of $3,000 a week. But Un
cle Joe has more fun in congress,
eVen if the pay is less. Incidently,
he will probably Sfcure enough
amusement out of life to make it
worth while, if he should be de
feated for re-election as speaker.
Uncie Joe, on the floor, shorn of
the responsibilities of leadership,
ought to make it quite interesting
for the democratic insurgent oppo
sition.—Aberdeen News.
A cold winter is promised by
those who note the signs of nature.
Migratory birds are said to l)e go
ing south severel weeks earlier
than usual. Furbearing animals
in the northlands are putting on
an extra length and thickness of
fur. The moss on the north side
of the trees is thicker than usual.
So are the husks on the corn. The
i muskrats along the streams are put
ting on their storm windows, and
providing for a long retirement
and "a long and cruel" winter is
the pessimistic prediction of goose
i lone prophets. The Argus-Lead
er doesn't cite these facts just to
be mean, but as a purveyor of news
it feels that it can not do its full
duty and ignore tiiem.—Sioux Falls
Argus-Leader.
Fall Plowing of Corn Lands
Most people recognize the value
of fall plowing for grain crops
but very few, however, follow the
practice with their corn crops.
Many feel that they must leave
the corn land until spring in order
to be able to get on to the land the
manure that is made during the
winter. It has been found, at the
Minnesota Experiment Station,
that from 12 to 15 loads per acre
of barnyard manure, taken direct
if she does there will be quite a
dust kicked up !etween Bridger
and Ash Creek when Chris gets
home.—Marietta Eagle.

The electric light plant and a
flouring mill at Belle Fourche were
destroyed by fire that started in
the former plant from a bolt of
lightning last Wednesday night.
Some of the settlers along the
line of the Milwaukee's preliminary
survey from Faith to
Bapid
City
are reported to have destroyed the
survey stakes, as they do not want
a railway cutting up their land.
Probably would suit each one bet
ter if a neighbor's claim was cut
up and a townsite established
thereon.
Art Runyan, formerly aresidci.t
in the vicinity of Grindstone,
sprang into notoriety a few days
ago when, as city detective in
Aberdeen, he arrested two of the
city's aldermen for alleged distur
bance. He was summarily sus
pended from his duties as "plain
clothes man."
The Lyman county fair at Presho
was among the several county fairs
of the state that resulted in a fiasco
on account of rain.
The road thru Manila has been
kept warm this week by movers
and freighters, and there has been
one or two parties of campers on
the creek here every night of the
week thus far. A noteworthy fact
is that there seems to be as many
ooming into the west as are going
out. Two families met here Mon
day, one going from Perkins coun
ty to Iowa to stay till the railroad
comes and the other returning to
Perkins Co. after a summer spent
in Clark Co. A'so on Tuesday
night, two parties camped here
and next morning one headed east
and the other to the west, and so
it seems emigrants and imigrants
are equally divided.—Manila
Courier.
DID NOT WANT PRISONER
Sheriff at Pierre Confident Man Killed

Pierre dispatch.—Sheriff Laugh
lin has never wavered in his firm
belief that the tramp shot here by
L. W. Elliott was tke man wanted
in Canada, for whom the authori
ties were searching last summer.
When an oflicer who came down to
identify him, failed to do so, Mr.
Laughlin still thought there was
something strange about it, espe
cially as the Canadian named marks
for identification that were not
mentioned in the printed descrip
tion. It looked to our foxy sheriff
as if now that the man was dead,
the Canadian authorities did not
care to pay a reward, transportation
and funeral expenses, but he rather
disliked to accuse them of such
smallness.
Vesterday "Dutch" Vail Metre
and wife and Fred Erwin, of Van
Metre, were in town and looked at
the body and positively identified it
as that of the fugitive who stop|ed
for supper at Van Metre's home
last July, just before the Canadian
oflicer tracked him into that region
and then lost the trail. Fred Er
win had met him also at that time,
although the man tried to avoid
him and all three are sure that this
is the same man. As there seemed
to be no object in keeping the re
mains longer, Undertaker Dotson
this afternoon interred them in the
pttter's field at Riverside, where
the poor body will rest better than
it probably did for many weary
weeks.

splendid, upright, christian man and of whom if can be truthfully said,
counts his friends by his acquaintances, as there is not a man in Stanley
County, who knows Frank Kyan. that does not highly respect him and
value iiis friendship and vet his companionship, for Frank is a com

whose warm handshake and winning smile throws sunshine around
those with whom becomes in contact. Such in brief, is a glimpse of
the man, who nspires to the otlice of County Treasurer of Stanley Coun

FRANCIS P. RYAN
ftyan, nominee of the Democratic Pifty for County
Treasurer. The subject of this sketch was born in Iowa Falls, in 11 te
good old state of Iowa, where he was reared lo manhood. Being of the
progressive type, that blaze the way for future generations, ambitious
and indust rious, alter complei ing a course in the Cedar itapids Iowa
Hu-dness College in whicn he graduated with high honors, and hearing
of and realizing the great possibilities that abound in the young state
which is now liis home, lie turnei his face westward, and for a number
of years has been prominently identified wit.ii the business and farming
interests of Stanley Comity. While at the present time engaged in the
very important position of accountant in tlie Hank of Midland, he, In
common with many others, has undergone the joys and sorrows, hard
ships and pleasantries incident lu Lite holding down of a homestead

In June. he quit the life known only to single blessedness, and

a short time ago became l.e proud fat her ol a bright liltle daughter,
and this happy I ami

which they have recently erected in Midland.
The office of county treasurer is the most Important in many re
spects of any office in county affairs, and realizing this, the Democrats
selected Mr. Uyan as he one man pre-eminent ly lilted, both in iook

trust. 11 seems indeed that nature itself lias fitted Frank Ityan for
this important position, as his knowledge of Ijookkeeping, and Ids large

not have been or can ie any wiser or better selection made. His econ
