ADVERTISER that mo vacancies exist in
those Offices, vide the following taken
from section 1441 of the compiled laws Of
Dakota: "And all officers appointed
since the last general election and all
officers appointed in the organization of
new counties shall hold their respective
offices until the next succeeding general
election unless otherwise especially
stated in their commissions" General
elections are held on even-numbered
years.

BEN HARRISON

Expects Every Republican to Do His Duty.
| If there ever existed time when the
republican party of South Dakota should
stand together that time is NOW. Great
interests are at stake. The eyes of the
entire nation are upon us and the repub-
licans of the country are depending upon
us to enter the Union as state as solid
ly republican as when we we're wrapped
in the swaddling clothes of territorial
juvenility and had no voice in the affairs
i of the nation.
The democratic party aided and
abetted by renegade republicans, mug
;wumps and class Of voters having no
political pedigree, is trying.to slaughter
the republican party by springing false
issues and setting up false gods, expect
ing the great mass Of voters, our farmers,
to follow them in preference to the old
time, well tried republican party.
What will be the results if the hybrid,
.ring-tailed, mongrel known as the Dako-
ia democratic party gets in power? We
will have state government responsible
for nothing. No party will own it and
as result state affairs will be handled
by individuals bound together by
neither moral obligations nor political
ties. A straight party ticket elected
will be holdentto the party responsible
for its election. One of these mixed-up
Legislatures will give us beautiful pair
Of hybrids in the United States senate.
May heaven deliver us from this calam-
ity! By the republican party losing
South Dakota the national party and ad-
ministration may be placed at a very
great disadvantage. In fact, such a
combination might arise as to lose the
republicans the lower house and also the
next national election for president. Our
present margin in the house is very
small and death, paradoxically speaking,
is terribly uncertain but nevertheless
sure quantity. South Dakota wants two
straight republicans in congress. It
wants no political mongrels there to hold
the balance of power in case death and
destiny should throw the next national
election into the lower house.
Republicans of Meade county and the
Hills, eastern Dakota has its eyes upon
us. This is no time to falter and wan
der off from the old, well known paths.
We must be true. We must have Meade
county solidly republican; South Dako-
ia, root and branch, solidly republican,;
and the republican majorities Of both
houses of congress must be increased by
South Dakota's four straight, rock-ribbed
republicans.
A little work will do it. Fight it out
on this line if takes until October, and
when the polls close on the October
election evening grand shout will go
up from all over our grand new state SO
loud and clear that Ben Harrison down
on the Atlantic coast will hear the noise
and know that South Dakota is straight
republican by 10000 majority.
