Dennis Daugaard: PIERRE, S.D. –The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (GFP) is asking hunters going into the field this fall to be diligent in preventing and detecting fires under the extreme dry conditions in certain parts of the state. Tom Kirschenmann, assistant director for the Division of Wildlife, stressed that hunters are helpful in preventing and catching fires early. “Hunters are among our very best fire-prevention tools,” he added. “With their precautions, thoughtful actions and diligence in watching the horizon, we have extra sets of eyes in the field that are valuable in preventing and reporting wildfires.” Hunters are an active part of fire prevention by preparing for and observing the following: • Carry a phone with a list of emergency contact numbers. • Know where cell service is available or not available. • Be aware of private landowners’ concerns about wildfires, and carefully follow restrictions that landowners place on hunters. • Restrict driving to established roads and trails. • Park vehicles in designated areas away from tall vegetation. • Ensure that catalytic converters and mufflers are in good repair. • Walk into hunting areas and walk out, including retrieval of game, whenever possible. • Camp only in designated areas and restrict the use of campfires. • Keep water, a bucket, shovel and other firefighting equipment in your vehicle. • Hunt in the early morning when high humidity reduces fire danger. “The key to fire safety is awareness,” concluded Kirschenmann. “We ask that hunters use common sense and be aware of the potential for wildfires no matter what the conditions are each fall. Responsible actions can make a difference in protecting both property and wildlife habitat.” The week of Oct. 1 is National Newspaper Week, an opportunity to recognize the important role newspapers play in our country. In South Dakota alone, there are 126 newspapers, some of which have been published for more than a century. Those newspapers employ hardworking reporters and others who work long hours to bring the news to our doorsteps. In 21st Century America we can sometimes forget that a free press is priceless thing, often not present in other countries. We don’t think about the many places around the world where people cannot freely assemble, nor express their beliefs, where there is no freedom of the press and where journalists can be jailed for publishing something about those in government. We are fortunate America is not one of those places. Here we recognize that a free society requires a free and independent press.

We even have some reporters on social media sharing their stories, posting photos and videos, and livetweeting events. Newspaper organizations are often much more credible than other kinds of online sources. Newspapers, and particularly the papers in South Dakota, are also closer to the people who read them. Newspaper Week is an occasion to thank those who put in long hours in the news room. Don’t let them hear from you only when you are dissatisfied. When you are happy with something, take a few minutes to send them an email or pick up the phone. Thank your local reporter for covering the event you organized. Tell them you appreciate their work to cover your local sports team. Express gratitude when they sit through the whole city council meeting.

The State Supreme Court agreed with Attorney General Jackley that, despite changing times, the Court was obligated to rule in favor of the defendants in State of South Dakota v. Wayfair, Overstock and Newegg. Significantly, the Court’s swift decision recognizes that “as internet sales have risen, state revenues have decreased.” The Court further highlighted the need for the U.S. Supreme Court to revisit this issue, allowing states to require internet retailers to shoulder the same tax burden as in-state retailers do. “The retail landscape significantly changed with the inception of the internet and access to online shopping. Federal law currently shields out-of-state businesses from paying the same tax remitted by South Dakota businesses. Today’s decision paves the way to respectfully request the U.S. Supreme Court to provide that much needed fairness to save main streets and jobs across South Dakota,” said Jackley. The prevailing law, as set forth in Quill Corp v. North Dakota, 504 U.S. 298, 112 S. Ct. 1904 (1992), provides that a state cannot require retailers who do not have a “physical presence” in the state to collect and remit the state sales tax. The purpose of South Dakota’s current litigation is to give the United States Supreme Court an opportunity to reconsider Quill in light of the extraordinary growth of the internet and the exponential technological advances that have been made in the last quarter century. If the U.S. Supreme Court ultimately strikes down Quill, retail sales tax obligation can be applied fairly to both internet and main street businesses. This case stems from a state law passed in 2016 that would require out-of-state retailers to collect and remit the sales tax similar to in-state retailers. The law applies to out-of-state retailers if they have more than $100,000 of sales or complete more than 200 sales transactions a year within South Dakota. in check, we need reporters who ask tough questions, find the facts, present them objectively, and present different sides of a policy issue. As President John F. Kennedy said in his 1961 speech to the American Newspaper Publishers Association, “Without debate, without criticism, no administration and no country can survive. . . And that is why our press was protected by the First Amendment – the only business in America specifically protected by the Constitution . . .” Today, technology has changed the way some of us get our news. Some prefer reading online news, versus picking up the morning paper. Some are getting their news from social media, blogs and internet sites. Whatever the medium of delivery, good news reporting must include fact-checking. Many online sources have failed to do this, but good newspapers have historically been more reliable. We are seeing newspapers adapt to the changing times, by posting stories online. Many offer e- 30pks 16.55 $ CALL US!
