A PREFERENCE.

The republicans should organize for
the purpose of giving expression to
their sentiments in the matter of our
congressional candidate. Ifthis county
allows this matter to go by default,
and Lawrence county should endorse
a man not strictly persona grata we
should have only ourselves to blame.
If we have a preference among the
congressional timber grown in Law
renee county now is the time to make
this preference known. It will be too
late to make complaint or express pre-
%ferences after Lawrence county has en-.
dorsed a man, for this year the Black
Hills counties are going to be harmo n
ious, above all things else. Lawrence
county is conceded the candidate, but
it is hoped that the forces there will
be wise enough and magnanimous
enough to consider the preferences of
the other counties. He is not to be
congressman of Lawrence county alone
but for the Black Hills and the great
commonwealth of South Dakota.
In this connection it may be said
that the candidacy of T.. W. Martin
seems to peculiarly free from any EN-.
barrassing features and is meeting
with very general approval of the Hills
counties.-Rapid City Journal.
Ii Lawrence county should be SO
foolish as not to heed the expressed
preference of the other counties they
| will have only themselves to blame if
they fail to get the congressman.

WHAT H DO IN W

A Sioux City Journal special from
Des Moines, Iowa, says that a bill to
regulate the state soldiers home
pension matter had passed the senate
of that state without opposion. AS
many veterans of our own state are in-
terested in knowing how other states
deal with the matter we give the fol-
lowing facts relative to the measure:
'sThe bill permits members of the
soldiers home who have no dependent
relatives, to retain their pensions, if
they are not guilty of drunkenness or
other misdemeanors. They have the
right to be tried by the commandment
or courtmartial. as they may elect, if
charged with an offense that would
tor cit their pensions. Those having
dependent relatives are required to de-
posit half theirpensions with the COM
mandant upon receipt thereof, to be
sent to such dependent relatives''
