RABCOCK is SANGIuNE

Before leaving the city for New York
few days ago. Mr.. Babcock expressed
entire satisfaction with the political
outlook. He does not doubt that the
Republicans will capture a sufficient num-
Der OF districts TO give them control Of tie
next House by good working majority.
In coiiiinon with the other leaders OF the
party, MIR Babcock realizes the necessity
OF securing the lower branch of Congress
in order, If Mckinley is elected, that the
latter shall have the cooperation Of a ia
tional legislature which will carry out
his policy.
So far from being disturbed by the fear
of his Congressional associates that the
fight this year will be a spirited one, Mr.
Babcock is, on the contrary, rather
gratified. He is quoted as saying that
good scare will stimulate the Republican
Congressional candidates to put forth
their best efforts. This being done, he
does not doubt that the great majority will
he elected, whereas without this stimulus
they might yield to over confidence and
become the victims to a Democratic ''still
hunt ~

Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1896-09-24
A Bright ~ Politician.

While at the hotel in Webster, before
making her speech on Monday evening,
a certain populist went to Mrs. Lease
and endeavored to persuade her to abuse
in severe language, certain members OF
the republican party of Day county, but
the propositions made were SO revolving
and such utterly bad politics that Mrs.
Lease at first absolutely refused to do
any part of the dirty job. But after
hanging oil some time with dogged per-
s~istence he finally persuaded Mrs. Lease
to turn loose ON Elmer Syversnn, the
republican candidate for superintendent
OF schools. Mrs. Lease consented to go
after the scalp OF the young Norwegian,
Syyerson, and abuse him because she
could excuse herself before her audience
on the grounds that she herself was a
rank woman suffragist, and that a
woman was running against Syverson
for superintendent OF schools. In pur-
suance OF this agreement Mrs. Lease i IN
her speech in substance said 81 am in
formed that the ~populists OF this count
have had the courage to place in nomi-
nation a woman az a candidate for one
of the most important offices in your
county. Ii the man who is running
against her had any chivalry or man
hood about him he will withdraw his
candidacy and not run against her.
Wherever you find a la who has not
sense or brains enough to make q living
by work or in some profession, you find
one who is always looking around to
beat some woman out OF II position"
How could Syverson beat Miss .Aasved
out Of q position when he was nominated
for the position u week before she was?
The republicans could not afford to set
such a dangerous example by taking
Syverson off their ticket becausea woman
was nominated for the same place. II
they did the ~popullsts hereafter would
nominate a woman for every office in the
county in hopes that the republicans
would pull down the whole ticket. This
is the first time we have ever heard
Syyerson accused of having no brains.
Mrs. Lease il not particularly TIC blame
for it, but rather the cowardly puke who
got her to do il. Some OF the populists
have seen the effect of the statements
made by Mrs. Lease and are trying to
gloss it over by saying she had reference
