Through rates shift eyed rail conflict and liquor license reform
The piece discusses railroads favoring long haul through rates over local rates, urging higher through rates to aid communities like South Dakota. It also critiques Senator Hitchcock plans to cut county saloon licenses from 400 to 5, arguing licensing should curb liquor use, not revenue, and criticizes Brown County lawmakers for funding Aberdeen Normal and publicity measures, highlighting the state budget impact and consistency questions. Community notices follow with local visits, events, and a funeral report.
