Moody, as republican senators VIII DC
chosen for South Dakota and the repub-
lican party is committed to protection.
Moody's record as Judge OF this dis
trict don't show him to be Il superior !
friend to the common people, nor do
his methods in running his campaign
indicate that lie will be rcformcr to
any great extent.
A desire for Office is what makes his
henchmen work for him, not faith in bis
honesty.
The republicans OF the farmers, ali-
ance OF Pennington county are consist
ing in refusing to vote for the nominees
OF the county convention; they are un-
derstood to be all license men and are
boilers OF the republican state platform,
as they refuse to support the prolibi
ton plank, while the democratic nomi-
nces bolt their platform OF h y license
aud support the prohibitionN, 'ank OF
the republican platform rs well as the
alliance platform. S. D. REED.
The Republican is nothing when it isn't

when it occasionally stumbled onto the

completed where it is carefully piloted
around ''anything that resembles

Kicking against the premiums offered,
but there WAS il conspiracy on the part
OF certain alliance farmers to bolt our
fair just as they propose to bolt the re-
publican ticket at the coming election
and certain parties in this city together
with the socAliad organ Of the alliance
must have stood in with that cOnSpi-
racy and here's where the kick comes in.
