Mcpherson, Miner; Moody, Potter, San

While this long list shows no bond

and Turner show no floating debt and
cash in the treasury. Several of the
other counties show very small float
ing debt, which could be wiped out and
show surplus OF cash ON hand, bur
only these three were absolutely clear
at the close of the fiscal year.
This is quite a different showing
from only few years ago, when but
few of the counties Of the state were
clear OF Indebtedness, and shows that

only supports the ticket endorsed by
the state convention. but also shuts
the other ticket of the BALLOT entirely
unless Ill is later nominated by petit
tion, under some other than Repub-
lican heading.
In considering the case the court
CLASSIFIED the two tickets as the Bah
cock and sHouck" tickets, H. A. Bah
cock being the chairman of the con-
vcntion of the Perkins faction and NJ.
A. Houck Of the other convention. In
the case presented to the court, the
Houck faction contended that their
reason for not going into the regular
convention was that they feared blood
shed in case they attempted to enter
the hall where the regular convention
was held, on account of the bitter feel
ing which existed, because there were
were numerous contesting delegations,
and because the majority Of the cen
trail committee was against them.
In regard to these contentious, the
court says: $50 ii appears that the
Houck faction remained away from
the regular meeting place Cd for fear
of bloodshed (21 because there were
numerous contrasting delegations; tSl
because the central committee favored
the opposing faction. The first reason
can hardly be taken seriously.
1t affirmatively appears that none Of
the Houck delegates entered or at
tempted to enter the orera house, ard
nothing is disclosed which would war
rant the inference that they would
have been excluded If they had at
tempted to do so. Surely it could not
be presumed that such gentlemen az
are usually chosen as delegates to Re
publican conventions in Roberts coun
ty necessarily resort to bloodshed
when they disagree concerning the
selection of delegates to a state con
vention."
The finding of the court after =
lengthy discussion of the situation is:
cit follows that the relator Is entitled
to pre-emptory writ of mandamns
commanding the defendant to print the
names of the Babcock candidates in
the regular Republican column on al
ballots to be used at the general cleo
ton in Roberts county, and to exclude
the names of the Houck candidates
tferefrom. unless within the period
by statute they shall hereafter be nom
mated as independent candidates b

cover his taxable disbursements, but

ROBERTS COUNTY CASE IS DECIDED
Supreme Court Recognizes the "Babcock' Conven.
ton as Regular One Opinion BY Judge Haney.

The supreme court. in an opinion by
Judge Haney, has handed down de-
cision in the case of the State of South
Dakota on relation or Robert nj. How
ellis VS.. III. A. Metcalf, ais auditor Of
Roberts county.
This is case which contained
practically the same elements as the
Wisconsin election case, and win go
% long way to discourage boiling con-
ventions in the state in future. The
case goes back to last spring, when
the delegates to the Republican state
nominating convention were selected.
In Roberts county the committee call
ed the county convention for the Sc
lection of the county ticket at the
same time as the convention for the
selection Of delegates.
In the county there was a bitter
fight between the two factions OF the
Republican party, one known as the
machine and the other as the "anti-
machine" The former were support
Ing the candidacy of j. G. Perkins for
secretary of state and were led by
Perkins, HI. A. Babcock and other lo-
cal leaders. The others were support
Ing G. H. Lien as candidate for lieu
tenant governor, and their leaders
we're Lien, David Eastman and their
followers.
When the convention date arrived
he machine delegates were the most
numerous. and met in the opera house
at Sisseton, according to the call of
the county central committee, and
their opponents made no effort to take
part in this convention, but went to
another hall and held convention of
their own. Both factions selected del
egates to the state convention. and
Iplaced in nomination full county tick
etc. When they reached the state
convention the machine delegates
we're recognized and given seats in
| the convention as the regular dele
gates from the county.
Matters rested in that manner until
the time approached for getting
ready the ballots for the election,
when the faction which was recognized
by the state convention made a de-
mand on the county auditor that their
county ticket be placed upon the ballot
rs regular. This he declined to do, an
nouncing his intention of placing the
other ticket in such place, and the
machine ticket to itself The matter
was then brought before the supreme
court, resulting in a decision which not

A GRBWSOAIE INCIDENT OF THE
WAR, RELATED BY A RUSSIAN
OFFICER.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug 6.-The fol-

made a great impression here: "On our
retreat we encountered a number of
wounded Japs, among others a young
infantry soldier, having an imprOvised
bandage around his left arm. He squat
ted at the side of pool of blood. His
face was torn by painful emotions
which he tried to stifle when he saw our
eyes resting upon him. His knapsack
was on his knees and spread out on it a
map of Manchuria, upside down. He
was tracing on the imprinted page the
figure of an infantryman charging a
battery, his own name and fathers ad-
dress. His own life blood, in the pool
before him, was his ink, a toothpick his
pen. I was so overcome by the heroism
of the enemy that l rode up to him and
left him a bottle of cold tea I had saved
for my supper"
