whoop this morning when special trains car
ing eighty five carlosds of immigrants
passed through Sioux City on their way to
South Dakota The trains were made up a,
Perry and Herdon, Iowa, and started last
night at So'clock. The trains to South Oak
have been crowded to the point of suffocation
by women and children and the fathers of
families for week. - Sioux City journal,
March s. 1902.
These people are coming to South
Dakota to secure the bargains that

good farm lands while they are cheap.

IS WHITEHEAD a Republican,

Dodgeville Chronicle: John M.
Whitehead is state senator and re-
sides in GAINESVILLE. He was elected
state senator by the republican par
ty, but for some mysterious reason
he refuses now to affiliate with the
party any longer and has united his
political fortunes with an organiza-
ton which refuses TO harmonic
with the party, and is acting inde-
pendently Of it. As "A representative
of this new organization, Mr., White
head is candidate for governor, and
will be the Independent candidate,
without any regard us what action
the authorized officers and members
of the regular.party may take in the
coming fall campaign.
Mr. Whitehead has been highly
houored DO the republican party. and
had he assumed the position in rela-
ton 10 the party that he now occupies,
previous to his election as senator.
he could not have been elected. All
the prestige aud influence he is now
in possession of, were acquired
through his profession Of being q
member of the republican party. an It
by this profession, the republican
party placed him in the state senate,
and by virtue of being member of
that honorable body, he became
known throughout the state, aud by
thus becoming known he takes adj
vantage of the notoriety and an
uouuces himself candidate for the
highest office in the state, without
regard or inquiry whether he is the
choice of the party or not 1t is a
pure ease or the creature placing
himself above and Independent of
the creator. and Is the second ease
since the creation of tho world in
which war has been declared against
the Creator by the creature; aud If
the simile be sustained in the case of
Mr.. Whitehead, his future may safe
ly be predicted from the downfall in
the other case.

ON POLITICAL AuDAciTY.

We are surprised that La Toilette has the
audacity to call it corruption to send free
papers to people for the purpose of spreading
information on political issues. While the
writer was serving IN the La Toilette camp he
was taught that that was not only legitimate
politics but very honorable. We can recall an
instance in a campaign for the election OF a
supreme court Judge that LsFolette bought
| Zoo copies Of The Enterprise from us to be
| sent 30 persons whose names and addresses
he furnished us.-Deertield News formerly
| The Enterprise.)
The above has gone the rounds OF
all the hired league papers, both
those that go under the Republican
and Democratic brand. 1t is posi-
BILE that their mental apparatus is
under paralysis so complete that they
cannot discern the difference between
| the kind OF political work referred 70
| in the above, aud that being done by
| the Republican legislative interloper
noodles Of the Eleventh story
League? We don't believe it. They
have more sense than that. But their
sense is cbscured by their hypocrisy
and cupidity.
Some years ago Judge Clementson
was an independent candidate for a
Judge Of the Supreme court. Win
slow was also M independent candi-
date for the same office. Neither of
them was before the people as either
Democtatic or Republican. They
were running on their own account
and were making no attempt to
steal partisan machinery. There
was 10 Eleventh Story organization
back OF either 10 whom unlimited
funds were furnished by parties un-
known to the public. Each paid the
expenses Of his own campaign. If
the above clipping is true, then Mr..
LaFollette, who was friendly to Judge
Clemensron, found n good thing in
the DeerfieId Enterprise which he
though would be good to circulate in
behalf Of Judge Clemenston, He had
not communicated with the editor
aud said: If you will go back on
Winslow whom you have befriended
heretofore and will advocate the
election Of our candidate and Will
publish tho editorials which We
write for you we will give you 200 or
500 or 1000 subscriptions at 81 or $3.50
each" LaFollette didn't do this, did
he? If he did let the Enterprise man
say SO. But no, he says that LaFoll-
cite bought 1000 copies OF one issue.
These would cost say $50. If the
Enterprise man considered himself
bought when Mr.. LaFollette bought
these copies of his paper he must
have counted himself rather acheap
man. Did the League get him ut so
cheap price?-Lancaster Teller.

For SALE-One lot 100 40 feet near
M. Cothren property on High street.
Quite convenient TO business, school
and church. J. b. REYNOLDS.
1t is reported on our streets that
Mr.. John Knight has sold his farm of
about 800 acres, half within the city
limits Of Mineral Point and balance
adjoining, for an average of $72 per
acre. 1t is further reported that Mr.
Knight contemp.ates building him
self new city residence on the lot
owned by him adjoining ST. Mary's
church property in the First ward.
There is a hot fight on for the
postmastership of Darlington. A war
veteran, Spencer Beers, is strongly
backed against the present incum-
bent, Morris Martin, one of the edi-
tors of the Darlington Republican.
AS MFR. Monahan, the other editor of
the Republican, holds $4,000 year
government job, the paper ought to
be able to live, II the other editor
loses his $500 postmastership.
Often We have felt like saying,
as the r'ennimore Times did last
| week that, the Dodgeville Chronicle
says good many pert and sharp
things, but the trouble is person is
apt to overlook them as they are
scattered about promiscuouly among
the locals, as the Chronicle has no
regular editorial column, which de-
feet, we believe ought to be rem
edied, in this otherwise really adj
mirable paper.
The republicans elected their
candidate for mayor, and Il ma
| jority of other officers at the city
election in Darlington last week.
The $4,000 pap-fed Repulican-Jo Jour-
nal by implication, which is the most
contemplate form of falsehood, rep
| resents it as an anti LaFollette vic
tory, although it is said that a ma
jority of the republicans elected are
supporters of the governor.
-Platteville News: According to
the discipline of the Primitive Meth
odist church two Society Meetings
have been held at Big Patch and one
in the city to make arrangements for
pastor the coming conference year.
The results of balloting showed that
Rev. S. r. Chubb received every one
cast proving the unanimous wish of
the entire church. This is very graft
flying all around both to pastor and
people.
The Platteville Witness warns
people to beware of II young man
who has been taking orders for art
portfolios and offering to give away
with the last payment for the gooas
a set of Haviland or china closet.
The portfolios are to cost the pur-
chasers 80, to be paid for in Install
ments of 81 each. The last payment
is to be made on delivery of the Chi
ma. The mention of the set of china
has taken admirably with the house
keepers, and many orders have been
given for the goods. 1t is impossible
to get set of Haviland china at any
such figures as he names unless the
set is doll set or the closet y toy
closet.
