som. Random observations.

l have been credited with some OF ihe
recent political communications in your
columns. but while they were very
cleverly written and expressed some oi
my humble opinions even better than l
could have done myself, / can't own up
to their authorship. However. have
been dong little off hand thinking since
the Pierre convention and am struck
with some peculiar and wltbal amusing
features Of the situation. now that the
"smoke Of the conflict has cleared away"
l have no reflections to cast on the Yank.
ton county delegation fer they set out to
"get there and they "got there with
both feet" to use classical expression
sanctioned by one OF our college profes.
sors; nor have any sympathy to waste
on the honest but deluded gentlemen of
this baillwick who helped to boost the
aforesaid delegation to its present com.
manding position.
But do want to call attention to
some Of the features that are most strik.
ing Just at this time. In the first place.
Alex. Mckenzie modestly attributes
all the credit of Gifford's nomination to
Pettigrew, who he says conducted the
successful candidates canvass with
great spirit and shrewdness.
Pettigrew in turn as modestly claims
the credit and the fact that Minnehaha
county voted from the first for Clifford
backs up his claim.
The last named gentleman also desires
it understood that he had hand in
making up the central committee and,
as he informed q Dawson county dele
gate who wanted to go on the same,
allowed none of his enemies to have
place there. He even rubbed it in on
this same delegate by appointing as
secretary of the committee delegate
who went from that county on proxy
and who was not the choice of the dele
CATION for recognition in any way.
On the other hand, such anti. Petit
grew stalwarts as Ewart of the Mitchell
Capital and Davis OF the Huronite are
free to say that Alex. Mckenzie carried d
out the programme as he had planned it.
but express doubt as to his ability to fin.
ish 1t up satisfactorily.
The Bismarck Tribune throws up it's
hat in great glee over the result, the full
significance of which it is evidently in q
position to grasp. The Huron Leader
and Canton News are also more or less
jubilant.
Meanwhile the solid men and news.
papers of south Dakota. who are perfect.
ly satisfied with the result. are scratch.
ing their honest heads to understand
how in the face of the victory they won
by standing together, Pettlgrew made
up the central committee and iecog.
nized Alex. Mckenzie to the extent of
Edwards, Stoyell, Jewell, Steele ct. al.
on the same. It does look sort of queer,
especially as neither of the prominent
statesmen in question really wanted
Clifford nominated but were forced to
his support by the solid stand which the
brave men of south Dakota took. It is
really amusing all around.

The Democrats in Convention.

The Democrats in Convention.
In the Democratic city convention,
which was held on Tuesday night,
DR.. Charles T. George was nomina-
ted for the Legislature. Not since
the last Democratic convention has
the Court House had within its walls
such circus. All of the Democratic
local statesmen were there in power,
prominent among them being n. l..
Butler, twin colored Democratic
brother to Tom Alsop. Nicholas
was not made chairman, or neither
was he given any other position of
honor. In the midst of his lifelong
friends, the Democracy, and the
absence of his twin in politics. he
stood silent and alone, fully symbol
izing the one black sheep in the flock.
Prominent among those present were
Kahnweiler, the lender and note
shaver, Thomas Powers, engineer at
Hunters hostelrie, George Bailey,
with his crushed strawberry beard,
Uncle George Shoemaker, and many
more greater and lesser lights. After
affording the spectators much amuse-
ment, and the bouncing of the ire
pressible VIM. D. Jack, by engineer
Powers, an organization was effected.
DR.. J. d. Bowman, DR.. Charles I.
George and DR.. E. d. kosure were
nominated for the Legislature. DR..
George having received a majority OF
the votes was declared the victim.
After a short speech, in which the
Doctor offered himself as sacrifice.
this the satire on convention, ad-
journed.
The county convention which as
sembled in the Court House on Tues
day, nominated the following ticket:
County Commissioners-John A.

Director Of the Poor. G. Books,
of SWatara.
