ABERDEEN, S. D., July Ex-senator
Pettigrew, who bolted the Republican
National Convention at st. Louis, cuts
considerable of figure in the State Con-

strong personal following that has
always stood by him in his political cam
paigns. At the same time the State IS
Republican by $4,000 majority and the
gold leaders are in control. There is no
question that the Senator will change the
complexion of the next Legislature, partic-
ularly as large majority of the last Leg
isIature was elected by pluralities ranging
from one to fifty.
