It has been easy to gather from the
lag the entire republican convention nor
preceding 1t did the machine lose It's
grip upon the ANXIOUS crowd of Office
seekers. Kittridge, the Sphinx, sat
quietly IN his room and all the little
bosses came and Went at his bidding,
feeling proud that they were even per-
United TO obey the mandates Of SO great
Il JOSS. 1t was no doubt a pitiabie sight
t. a free, independent American to wit
n-ss such humiliation and faWning, but
III the republican party OF South Dakota
asnow constituted it works like a charm.
Tue Sphinx did not even let the little
county bosses and railroad attorneys
know who was to be temporary chairman
until he had all the delegations in hand
necessary to control the convention,
then it was made public that his first
lieutenant Joe Greene should be ele-
waited to the chair. Joe ls probably the
poorest specimen for a presiding officer
that could have been picked out in the
whole state but a more plant tool Of
Klttredge ard corporations could not be
found IN many a thousand miles Of
travel. His election to the chair insured
the manipulation of the convention and
committees to the liking Of the boss and
was the fist necessary step to the nom
ination eff the entire ring ticket. Kilt
ridge did not go out to Brule county last
week to help Joe down John H. King to
no purpose. Joe stood him we'll in hand
at the Mitchell convention and will as
much longer as he needs him. 10 such
s~talwarts. however, as Harvey j. Rice,
Edwin Van Cise, Major Dollard and
others it must have been humiliating in !

IN the extreme. These gentlemen will
learn in time that their only hope of re-
deeming their party from the shackles
of boss,sm and corporation rule Will be
with the people at the polls. No
matter how able the men nominated so
long as they owe their nomination to
such malign influences, they ought never
to represent the people of South Dakota
in a legislative or administrative
capacity, and We believe that the people
of South Dakota are In such mood that
they Will see to it that the nominees of
this convention never shall.

At Least That IL the Expressed Opinion
of Bimetalist Fowen.
DENVER, Aug. "5.-Mr. q. G. Mer.
rick has received a letter from Mr..
Moreton Frewen, the noted British
bimetalist, in which he expresses the
hope that the party in this country
which favors currency expansion was
also in favor of national expansion.
Regarding the currency experiment
IN India he says:
II understand that the commission
now sitting "a commission certainly
packed with complacent oficials-are
yet unable to get any evidence which
they dare print which favors the gold
standard in India. It cannot then be
very long before the Indian minis re.
OPEN"
Mr.. Frewen also says China will ab.
serb an enormous quantity Of silver il
the trade Of those myriads is about to
be unlocked by modern conditions Of
transportation.

LAKE COUNTY
As Seen by a Wisconsin Gentlemen Wh(
Recently Visited this Section.

Il. d. Jones, a Wisconsin, gentleman
who recently visited this section and
was shown the resources6 Lake county
by Hon. Chas. B. Kennedy. writes as
follows to his home paper: "Madlson.

ton of at least 5000. 1t has all the ia

We noticed a meadow, where hay had
been made and stacked by II farmer, but
more often it resembled the roof of a
corn crib laid on the ground. Then We
came to a piece Of flax drilled on first
blowing. Then came the wheat field, as
a general thing free from weeds. The
~husbandman expects from fifteen TO
twenty bushels per acre; we are inclined
to think it will do better, especially on
drilled fields. The oat crop was good.
1t was claimed by the residents they
would reap seventy five bushels per
acre. We noticed the corn fields had in
most cases been handled by farmers
who understood their business: but in
some cases, however, 1t appeared the
seed had not been carefully selected,

should have beer replanted. As we had
never been as far west as the Mississippi
river until tins occasion we had ONLY

expected but one. Having no deal to

At all the precincts the voting was go

The judges and clerks sat around and
speculated on the vote to be cast, and
were in evidence. Occasionally a hack
would drive up with one or two voters,
The vote of Nelson Clark, a coIored man
who works for Nick Chiles was chal-
ported the challenge to Nick, who came
to the voting place and demanded to
know who dared to challenged the vote
of man who had worked for him for
ten years. Clark refused to swear in his
vote, but he finally produced his registra-
ton receipt and the challenge was with
drawn.
IN the Second precinct of the Fifth ward
though everyone was orderly. There were
40 votes cast at noon out of a registration
of 1856 The front part of the polling place
was filled with colored men, many of
whom wore Stanley and Curtis badges,

Marshal Sterne has been working dur

Democratic stronghold, and predicts that
the Republicans will carry it by more
than a hundred majority. This is the
ward where the santa Fe shops are locat-

by $50 majority.
At 100 this afternoon there was a large
crowd waiting at the Second precinct of

cast. The heavy vote came from the
voters of both parties, without the adj

There came near being a knock down
fight in which Congressman Curtis was
one of the interested parties at about
IL o'clock this forenoon at the second
precinct of the First ward but this was
the only excitement reported anywhere
in the city
The trouble in this precinct which is
where most of the Russians vote arose
ever a decision as to who should go into
the booths to instruct the voters who
could not read. w. F. Miller was the
only Republican representative on the
board and he demanded the right to go
into the booth. The board voted to not
allow him to do so. He protested but
was told that if he attempted to enter
the booth while a voter was being in
structed in the mysteries of ticket
marking he would be forcibly thrown
out.
Miller sent for Congressman Curtis,
who came post haste out of breath.
What does this mean," he demanded.
why do you not allow our man to go
into the booth?"
Because We do not choose to- said
one of the members of the board.
Now, look here" said Mr.. Curtis
pointing his finger at the judges, this
man is going into the booths when a
voter who can not mark his ticket is
being instructed and I dare one of you
to put a finger or him"
Miller was allowed to enter the booths
after that and Congressman Curtis AMI
H. G. Stafford are closely watching the
progress of the voting at that polling
place.
