A GOOD SUGGESTION.

The Pierre Free Press makes the fol-
lowing suggestion, in view of the COM
ing election, which we are fully pre-.
pared to coincide with. 1t is as much
the unquestioned duty OF the press to
carry elections in off years, as the press
of the state did when Jolley was elected,
as it is its right to take a hand before
nominations in the case of general
election. say like that of last year. If
we are to shoulder u greater part of the
burden in the year like this, with unob-
iectjonable candidates in the field, most
of whom were nominated without any
contest because of their fitness. we have
right to insist next year that the very
best men are put up on their merits
without reference to some one or others
personal ambitions.
The Free Press says:
The Free Press wants to say few
words to the Republican editors of South
Dakota. We are now in the midst of u
judicial campaign, and each OF the three
political parties has {. full ticket in the
field: this in itself would make it Il po-
litical campaign. For tue supreme
court the Republicans have three men
who have been tried by four years OF
hard work on the same bench and who
have given great satisfaction. For the
circuit bench the Republicans have
nominees who are the peers of any men
in the state, and six out of the eight
are now on the bench aud have been
nominated on their record. These
eleven judicial candidates urc nearly all
just now engaged in their official duties
and could not do amy campaigning for
themselves. even if there were not a
prevalent sentiment that candidates for
the judiciary should keep aloof from po-
litical campaigns to a large extent.
There being but few candidates this
year there can be no campaign fund for
the circulation of literature and the
sending out of speakers to enthuse the
people. This being the case. cannot
we, as Republican editors. take an ad-
ditional burden upon ourselves and.de-
vote all extra amount of space and at
tention to the election for the next few
weeks? Cannot we use extra zeal in
urging Republicans to stand up and be
counted this fall? Cannot we keep con-
stantly reminding Republican voters
that this is not the year to stay away
from the polls?

Sioux Falls Press: The Press was
under the impression that the burned
university at Vermillion was state in
stitution. If this is correct, why are
private citizens collecting funds to re-
build the university?
For the same reason that the citizens
of Madison rebuilt the normal school al
once rather than wait for the legislature
to meet, trusting, as it proved rightly,
in the good faith of the state for rein
bursemens. The people of Vermillion
are fully alive to the exigencies OF the
