She was one Of those hollow-bscked, clean

walking in the avenue with springy-gsit

and she decided to ride in one. A cold,

motion above the wrist, brought the vehicle
to a stop in the quiet proper manner.
Then she had to bid an adieu to her com

case and the dlsproportion in favor of
the country is too great to be excused or
explained upon any other ground than
that of favoritism towards section easi.
ly controlled by the schemers.
We have given the figures showing
the relative apportionment in past con-
ventions. They speak for themselves
and no argument is necessary in behalf
of absolute fairness up to the convention
apportionment of 1884. Upon that oc.
casion the then chairman of the commit
tee met with other members of the COM
mittee and made just apportionment.
BUSINESS called him east and after his
departure, committee proxies were gath
cred up by the schemers, another com.
mittee meeting was held and new ap.
portionment made which gave the coun-
try very much larger representation
than it was entitled to. This apportion.
ment. unjust in all its features, gave the
present chairman and his followers con-
trolof the convention and of the republic
can machinery of the county. They have
used the power thus fraudulently OBJ.

and will continue to use it until they
are hurled from power by the party up.

measures. The lesson of last spring
should have convinced them that disrep.

republican party of Yankton.

Last Saturdays city cauouses were
slimly attended, not more than forty of
the 800 voters of the city appearing at
the two precinct headquarters to exer.
else their rights as freemen. 1t was no.
ticeable that those present, who were
brought in by most persistent course
of drumming, belonged oil to one school
of politicians-the element which reuches
persistently and continuously for the
spoils of office. Everything was har-
monious in the caucuses, the machine
grinding on after the good old fashion.
The motions were made by veterans in
the business and the responses were all
OF the stereotyped order. It was a
bloodless victory for the ring which ap-
portions precincts to suit Its own pur-
poses and makes q grand speciality of
the proxy business. The conven.
ton which is to meet in this
city Wednesday will contain the thirty.
four delegates elected in the city last
Saturday, and sprinkling of country
representatives armed with the potent
proxy or habilitated with instructions to
"cast the full vote Of the precinct" The
convention will be harmonious and the
list of names arranged last week in the
office of the chairman of the county
committee will be placed in nomina'
tion, in due form, without any opposi
tion, Thus the voice of the
1851 voters of Yankton county will assert
itself and it will be made matter ol
record that four candidates have beer
chosen with great unsnimity to occupy
seats in the Sioux Falls convention. Il
is probable that very few people viii
vote on election day. They are tired o.
this cut and dried method of manipula
ting political matters and will exhibit
their contempt for the whole business
by the silence which speaks withou
being heard.

After several days of preparation the
chairman OF the county republican com.
mlttee has put forth his not unexpected
announcement that the call for the COM
ing county convention was purely call
for republican convention and did not
contemplate the admission of democrats
into its councils or into any of the pre-.
liminary gatherings. Yet the official
call still stands inviting "the voters" of
Yankton county to assemble in conven-
tion. The chairman observes that the
charge of unfair apportionment is sue.
cessfully demonstrated by the figures
and is endeavoring to escape its effects
by change of base. It was fully under
stood that the convention was to be non
partisan and an apportionment for con.
ventlon of that nature was made and
was supposed to have been based upon
the vote of the county. In reality, how.
ever, it was based upon nothing but
the desire of the manipulators
to favor localities controlled by them.
We have demonstrated by a series OF
figures that there was no fairness in the
apportionment. and the chairman now
attempts to dodge the proof by setting
up fictitious allegation.
Let US look into his newly construct.
ed view of the case and see what fairness
1t contains. II the apportionment had
been based upon the republican vote o,

given one delegate IN th,
