echoed the opinion Of all but one, and
he was the president Of the association
who had made the Black Hills country
eight weeks ago, hunting for a new
country to visit. He said, "Wait until
the boys get home, then you Dakotans
will be able to read some compliments
Of your state" .......
George W. Nash, one of the professors
in the Yankton College, came out to Hot
Springs last week on business, and was
guest Of Col. and Mrs. Linn for cou-
pie of days. It was Georges first visit,
but it won't be his last. He played like
a porpoise in the big plunge, went up to
Sylvan Lake and gazed at the stone
capped Harney Peak, $500 feet high
and 8, 900 feet above the beautiful lake
where he and Col. and Miss Dewey and
the writer took dinner. George thinks
there is no place like Hot Springs, and
he may give his impressions through the
News.
One of the chief attractions of this
city is the Soldiers Home, located on a
plateau on the mountain side, facing
east, 21O feet higher than the Evans,
but on the opposite side Of Fall river, a
stream that flows as free and sparkling
in winter as it does in summer, with
never sign of ice in the coldest wealth
er known here. Facing the Soldiers
Home across the valley is rock-capped
''Battle Mountain" 5000 feet high and
fron its rugged peak one can see the
Pine Ridge and Rosebud Agencies and
the Missouri river bluffs on clear day,
while to the north you see Harvey, Ter
ry and Crook peaks, the latter two a
hundred miles north. To the west you
can see Wyoming and to the northwest
Montana, and to the south Nebraska.
Hundreds of strangers visit the Home
every week, and some days as high as
fifty are shown over the building and
through the spacious apartments. It's
a beautiful home, and the veterans are
proud of it.
o. o. Ulrikson and family of Lincoln
county, are among the temporary resi-
dents of the town. Mrs. Ulrikson's
health is improving.
The state encampment of the Grand
Army will meet here next June and the
Black Hills soldiers and sailors associa-
tion will meet here at the same time. A
cent mile rate is assured, and perhaps
better. One car load Of visitors from
Mitchell is already assured, and other
towns will do as we'll and some better.
It will be the biggest and grandest en-
campment ever held in the state.

AN OLD SONG REVIVED.

The esteemed Republican press Of
South Dakota is now engaged in giving
notice to whom it may concern that
the party must positively nominate
"clean men, free from boss influence, y
if it expects to win in the fall election.
The Tribune has seen this statement
before somewhere. In fact, reason
ably good memory enables this news
paper to recall how that warning voice
has been doing duty ever since the
Sheldon administration began to trifle
with honesty and decency in conduct
ing the states business Before the
nominations were made the warnings
appeared serious for the bosses, and
ordinarily should have had the effect of
making them very good. But it did
not The "clean men, free from boss
influence" were not nominated. The
bosses proceeded to take care of their
own just az if nothing had happened,
and the Republican newspapers which
had been predicting defeat if that
course was adopted Immediately changed
their tune. They hailed the boss nom
nations with Joy, and called upon the
voters to stand by the g. o. p, tariff on
hay, and reciprocity.
That is why the Republican party of
South Dakota is still dominated by
bosses who bring reproach upon the
organization. The Republican news
papers which express the desire for a
better character of nominations are
unwilling to bring themselves to the
position of welcoming one good, sound
thrashing in order to purify the party.
The Spartan virtue which makes their
columns shine and give hope to the
people before nominations are made is
afterwards replaced by the most abject
party servitude. Under the circum-
stances it is no wonder the bosses smile
when they read the warnings and go
ahead fixing states which they know
will have the united support of the
party newspapers at the proper time.
AS long as this course is pursued the
Republicans will either fail to give the
state a satisfactory administration or
will be defeated. Elections of state Off
GERS in South Dakota have in recent
years turned on personal fitness and
cleanliness rather than on issues. Vot-
ers recognize, evidently, that issues
have been given too much prominence
in the past, at the expense of personal
character, and this is shown in the elec-
ton Of 1895, when the people went to
the extreme of disregarding the acute
national issue in order to emphasize
their objection to Republican methods
in their state government. The voters
are liable to repeat the action in the fu-
ture if given occasion, and this ought to
encourage the Republican newspapers
to consistently stick to the text Of their
warning cry until election day.-Sioux

1t seem: that Col. O. l.. Schumpert,
OF Ncwbcrry, candidate for governor,
was misunderstood regarding the IL
QuOr question. He docs not accept and
support the dispcnsary outright, as he
was reported to have done. In u later
speech he is reported rs saying that he
preferred the dispcnsary to prohibition,
but local option with high license to
both. The last named would prove
the most satisfactory and democratic.
This is worry close to Uncle George
Tiilman's position and ma.y thousand
times better than ;hvocacy of tho dis
pcnsary rs "thc best solution. "--Grccn-
