gally entitled to the money. 1t
was the best and about the only
defense left to be made. Now
comes the attorney general of the
state, Interpreting the law and
settling the matter definitely as to
whether the republican candidate
for secretary Of state is innocent
or guilty. He holds that under
the law Roddle had not the least
right to the brand fees collected,
that these funds belong to the
state, and that the law is so PLAN
that no other construction can be
placed upon it. Attorney General
Grigsby was asked for an opinion
in the matter and he has given it,,
not as a political partisan, but as a
state official and a public servant.
Now what have Roddle's republi-
can apologists to say?
To summarize the whole thing,
William H. Roddle, republican
candidate for secretary of state,
is GUILTY OF UNLAwFULLY TAKING
SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS OF
STATE MONEY! Neither he nor his
apologists can lay the crime to ig-
norance Of the statutes, for Roddle
himself has admitted that he
doubted his right to the money at
the time he took it-but he took
It just the same and trusted to be-
ing able to hide his official crook
edness behind a mis- construction
of the statutes.
Roddle is guilty! Let him and
apologists face the music and
take the medicine they have mixed.
Let the corrupt machine which
nominated him bear a part of the
guilt. Let the railroad cappers
who go. KID" his candidacy carry
the burden which a tool like Rod
die throws onto a ticket. Roddle
is guilty and this fact will not
be forgiven or forgotten by the
people Of South Dakota.

is GUILTY.

The UNION, along with the 9TH
er popullst papers throughout the
state, has had more or less to saw
regarding the serious charges pre-
ferred against William II. Roddle,
republican candidate for secretary
OF state. At the republican state
convention Rcd lie was openly
charged by members of his own
party with having collected fees as
a member of the state brand COM
mittee and %unlawfully appropriate
ing the money for his own personal
use and benefit. These fees ag-
gregated some several hundred
dollars and made a ''fat take" for
this distinguished diciple of 'tna-
tional honor"
This charge against Roddle did
not originate with the populists or
democrats who are opposing his
election, remember. 1t was made
by we'll known REPUBLICANS who
months ago knew that the official
record of the man was crooked.
That is why his denomination was
SO bitterly opposed by self-respect-
ing republicans at the Mitchell
convention. But Roddle belonged
to the same machine that nomi.
mated Phillips, Burke and the rest
of the railroad ticket, and he
would have been nominated for
secretary of state if h: had been.as
big a thief as Walt Taylor! Such
was the will of the machine and
that settled it.
When the silver press of the
state took up this charge against
Roddle and commenced using it
as a means to secure his defeat
the republican papers rushed to
his defense, branded the charge as
false, and sought to cry it down,
while Roddle himself, when
pressed for an explanation of his
conduct, indirectly confessed his
guilt, but claimed that under the
law he hal a right to the money
he had taken. At this the repub.
lican press grew enthusiastic il
its assertion that Roddle was lie.
