Two prominent, well-posted men of
Lawrence county who we're in the city
during the past week, one a republican
and the other a democrat, neither of
whom r taking any direct interest in
the contest that is going on within the
republican party of Lawrence county,
each declared that they felt very
certain that Mr.. Martin would carry
that county and secure the delegation
to the state convention. Were it not
breaking confidence we should be glad
to give the names of the gentlemen re-
ferred to for they are both we'll known
in the Hills, and one we'll known over
the state. They are also in a position
to know the sentiment in Lawrence
county. These interviews we're dis
tinct and apart and each being an
impartial observer of the situation we
feel that their opinion is an exception
ally fair and accurate prophesy of the
way that county will go. They said
that the people generally, outside of
cliques and factional influences SEEM
| ed to be enthusiastic for Martin.

SOLDIERS HOME NOTES.

The hospital I department is doing
good work. Garrison Nelson, Mr.
Beetem. MI. Hayes and VIM Ball we're
all discharged from the hospital this
week.
Tue statue Of General Logan will be
painted the regulation blue of the
army uniform. There is a red streak
in the stone which discolors the rest
of the statue every time a rain comes.
VIM Ball who has been in the hospit-
al two or three weeks, receiving treat
ment for apopleXy, went to Lead Sun
day to do some.contracting. Mr.. Balls
condition, when he left. was satisfact-
DRY to DIR. Wade.
Most of the veterans we're out to
vote Tuesday. In their younger years
these patriots fought for the right of
mankind, and their patriotism still
shines in doing their duty at the
polls.
Only one new member enrolled this
week. Manoah N. Spencer of Co. X
Bird Maryland Inf. He ome from
Edgemont. Quite Il number have gone
to their homes or away to some other
place fora visit. There is, generally
quite an exodus about this time of the
year.
Fifty or sixty lilac bushes have been
planted in front of the hospital be-
tween the side walk and driveway.
Thomas Tate is engaged in setting out
seventy-five fruit trees in the plot
across the driveway from the Home.
The grass and shrubbery is making
a good showing IS a result Of Toms

Mr.. Siever had q serious spell the
last part of last week. The cancer ate
into a branch of the jugular vein and
for a short time the bleeding was so
profuse that Major Wade was some
what alarmed about the patient. The
Major, with the assistance of the nurse
succeeded in istopping the flow but not
until Mr.. Sewer was quite weak from
the loss.

REPUBLICAN BY 11s.

Such was the Verdict of the People Mt the
Polls last Tuesday On City Affairs.
The city election passed off very
pleasantly, there being no undue eN-
citement. TWAS evident all along that
the republican ticket would win easily
and it did, two to one. The entire re-
publican city ticket vas elected. OF
course there was "no politics in it,
there never isin elections-yet it seems
that a ticket headed republican,
counts for a whole lot more than those
headed any other way. If the republi-
can ticket had been defeated it would
have been Il great victory for the ants
just the same and the laugh would
have been on the republicans. Just
the same, the republicans defeated a
good man. DIR. Daley would make a
good mayor, but people generally felt
that DIR. Hargens was entitled to the
position another term. 1t is no per-
sonal slight to DIR. DALEY, therefore,
to be defeated, forpractically and from
the standpoint of one termer who
has done we'll, DIR. iIargens had all the
advantage. The remainder of the re.
publican ticket had good majorities
The republican nominees upon the
school ticket were also elected except
the first ward. The following is the
result of the election:

An upper Hills newspaper suggests
that because the Black Hills counties.
outside of Lawrence, gave the republi-
can ticket only II majority in 1898
"those counties should not feel so
much offended if Lawrence should
presume to have something to suggest
regarding the proper candidates for
congress or the senate" The trouble
with the small majorities in these
other counties, possibly, is because
Lawrence has had too much to say in
other years. She has never stopped to
consider the other counties as amount.
ing to anything-eXpecting them to in
every instance fall over each other in
an effort to climb on the band wagon
from "the Kingdom of lawrence"
They seem to have changed the pro-
gram this year and while willing to
concede Lawrence the nominee they
want a hand in naming him-and pro-
pose to have it. They don't care to
dictate to Lawrence, neither do they
want to be dictated to by a few self
appointed leaders of Deadwood. We
are willing and glad to unite with
republicans everywhere and meet and
decide upon what is best for the party.
SiNty-seven republican delegates out
side of Lawrence county are the peer
every time OF siNty-seven delegates
from Lawrence county. Let the 134
delegates from the Hills pull for their
congress ional candidate, and get some
thing. The Ga delegates outside of
Lawrence propose to go after a con-
gresham and hope the67 from Law
renee will unite with them. 1t is this
or nothing.

%Pettigrew's Machine.

A special to the Minneapolis Journal
says: speaking of the Pettigrew mach
inc in this state. Senator Kyle said to-
day: THE most merciless and ineNor-
able machine in existence in the Unit
ed States is the one which holds in
its absolute control the fusion
elements of South Dakota. One man
holds under his thumb for the sole
benefit of himself, every person in op-
position to the republican party and
not one of them dares sneeze unless
he is sure the boss has taken snuff.
Croker is not anywhere near as CON-
plete a boss of Tammany as Pettigrew
of the fusion forces of this :state. Not
a fusion organ from Deadwood to
Yankton or from Yankton to
Aberdeen dares do more than repeat
what has been uttered by the boss,
and nothing is allowed to reach the
public through those papers until after
it has been censored by his chosen
confidents or by himself in person.
cu1Iiler. no mai dares aspire 10 a
nomination, however humble the posi-
ton until no has the approval of the
boss. The whole machinery is being
run with a disregard OF everybody and
everything except this II mans per-
sonal ambition, and every other man
must be sacrificed to his interests. 1t
is somewhat amusing therefore to hear
the word machine used in any other
connection in any other part of the
country and especially in this state"

The Leather Belt Unhealthy.

Philadelphia Record.
There is another side to the leather
belt which is just now so greatly al
fected by men, in lieu of suspenders
A Walnut street physician says OF 1t :
"The belt is very nice In a great many
ways, and certainly it is more slightly
when a man wishes to remove his
coat. But it is a menace to digestion.
In order to keep the trousers In posi-
ton it is necessary to haye the belt
buckled on so tightly that it can't help
having an injurious effect. In hot
weather tho greatest freedom OF move-
ment should be observed, and the
looser a mans clothes are the better
it is for him. These belts, too, seem
to grow narro wer each year, and when
they are buckled tightly they form a
deep groove around the body, which
retards circulation and has bad effect
upon the digestive organs. Many a
man who complains because his food
doesn't agree with him might over
come the difficulty by discarding his
belt"
