Tbe bill is interesting In that it
deals with an ag-old controversy
upon which many classic English
novtis have teen founded the le
gitimizing of children born out of
wedlock by the subsequent marriage
of their parents. Hitherto church
and state hive set their laces sternly
against this "condonation of iiu mor
ality but the war has toftencd

subject and there Is no doubt that
tbe measure will now be adopted.
ABOUT THE PROPOSED THIRD PARTY
A shameless bunch of slackers, pro-(Jerraans and pro everything
r else opposed to stalwart Americanism, in South Dakota, yesterday
- met and declared for the third party proposed to be organized in
Chicago, and this outfit of three tailors of Tooley street declared
that South Dakota is overwhelmingly for Bob La Follette for Presi
dent of the United States. i
This libel will no doubt be denounced as a slanderous falsehood
by nearly all the people of South Dakota.
1 These men who are anxious to have La Follette for President
of the United States ought not to allowed to assume to themselves
the dignity of posing under the banner inscribed with the term, third
party.
There is a third party already in the field, with. Debs, the con
tict, as its standard bearer.
And there may. be still other parties in the field before the cam-
paien is much older.
In most of the national campaign, ever since the United States
was a nation, there have been more than three parties.
There were only the Federal and Democratic parties in the- field
from 1792 to 1824, and then other parties began to blossom forth,
including two wings that called themselves the Democratic party,
the Coalition, the National Republican, the Anti-Mason, the Whig,
the Abolition, Free Soil, Constitutional Union, Independent Demo-
" cratic, Republican, Greenback, People's, Temperance, Prohibition,
Union Labor, Social Labor, etc., etc.
There need be no fear of the success of any minor party of mal
contents, reactionaries, Socialists of high or low degree, or of un
'American would-be political assassins of any kind, this year.
i It will be the old fight, mainly, between the Republican party,
standing for every sound American principle, for an up-standing and
outstanding loyalty to the,pfpd record of American ideals, opposed
by the trimmers and side-steppers and excuse-mongers of the Dem
ocratic party.
' . -And-there is bound to he a sweeping victory for- the party of
Lincoln and Urant and Uarfield and McKmley and Taft and Roose
velt and Harding.
It is in the course of destiny.
The stars in their courses fight against Sisera.
In order that th' United States of America may assume again
and maintain its place of leadership amoner the reoDles of the world.
" for which this nation was set apart, it is necessary that there should'
be a sweeping victory for the Republican party in November; so that)
ouaii. icwaiu iiu juuurance in xne least, aegree at Washington to
the working out of the high ideals of which this country is the
ward and keeper and defender, for the healing of all the nations of
the earth.

FOOD CONTROL.
Food control is still administered
in Great Britain, and under it the
citizen must select his grocer and
cannot thereafter change without an
official permit.
One case that Is exciting public
attention is that of a woman who
wrote for such permission, filling
in the necessary vexation forms and
explanations. After wailing patient
ly for several days she learned that
the food controller's office bad writ
ten to her retailer asking it he bad
any objection to his customer deal

GDI AND THE ENGLISH.
The middle name of the Republican candidate for president is
Oamaliel, the law-giver, of whom St. Paul wrote: "I am a Jew, born
m Tarsus of Cilicia, but was brought up in this city at the feet of
Gamaliel, .instructed according to the strict manner of the law of our
fathers, being zealous for God, even as ye all are this day." Read
your Acts.
; The men and women of modern civilization are victims of a
restless reaction from the horrors of years of war. Their minds are
open to such stimuli as may be presented, good or evil, healthful or
poisonous. Deep too deep in the hearts of a vast majority lie the
precepts of the Nazarene. And when the church, roused to the dan
gers of ultra-idealism, shall devote its energies to welding together
Christianity and workaday life, and the leaders in the complex ram
