is being made to change the date of
the national PopuliSt convention set
for May . at Sioux Falls, :. ID. NJ. L..
Fox, of Sioux Falls. leading South
Dakota PopuIiSt. i'll an Interview here
said that Sioux Falls is a little afraid
that the weather just at that season
will be unpleasant, and it is thought
that if it can be put OFF until Il later
date conditions probably would be
more favorable.
Fox said that one reason for fixing
the date so early was so as To have the
fusion convention at least Il month in
advance Of the national Democratic
convention. it being supposed thar this
would be held early in June. But now,
as this has been fixed for July /, ii
would leave ample time for the Popu
lists to hold their convention as late
as the LIST of June. He says Sioux
