Lecture at ME-. Church.

The Epworth League have secured
the services OF Rev. Perry Millar,
presiding elder of the M. r. church,
of this district for Friday evening,
June II. Rev. Millar is an interest
ing and fluent speaker and his subject
selected for that evening is THE
Land of the Midnight Sun, y
which is of more than passing
interest. Each exploring expedition
to the northern regions increases our
eagerness for more knowledge of the
frozen north. This lecture should
meet with liberal support from our
citizens as the subject and object
ought to be of deep interest to all.
The proceeds will go to the piano fund
Of the Epworth League.

The congressional record of
the Hon. August Koenig, re-nom-
mated for representative by the
democrats of Bon Homme county,
is one that will bear the closest
scrutiny. In u last weeks
issue we gave to our readers but
a brief sketch of the ideal man.
agement of Senator James p.
Cooley in manipulating the pass
age of the Springfield normal
dormitory appropriation bill and
in perfect fairness we will state
that the Hon. August Koenig
worked shoulder TO shoulder with
Senator Cooley and proved him
self a thorough, efficient and
capable representative. No man
of either party would have, or
could have done more TO directly
benefit the people than did repre-
sentative August koenig. Would
it be policy to turn him down and
place in his stead an obscure, un-
tried man, Of whose qualifications
the people know comparatively
nothing? Your common sense
will tell you no. Let we'll enough
alone and cast your ballot for
Cooley, Koenig and Michel.

In the first place, we do not be-
lieve. although admitting the
fact that he is a very r~csourceful,
shrewd and energetic worker in
any cause, that John l.. Turnes
would care to be clasSed as being
the sole manipulation of the old
political machine. Several others
whom Brother Hoagland might
have named deserve fully as
much credit (2) for the ''grists
ground out by the old political
machine as Mr.. Turner. If the
republican anti-machine poll
ticians, prominent among whom
are A. j. Wilcox, s. n. Brann
and Jas. Stephens 1--WE do not
think that Chas. Hill is in any
way identified in the movement)
have, as the Enterprise suggests,
manufactured a new machine, il
Is yet in the embryo. Were any
such machine contemplated Il
would find itself confronted by
difficulties and dangers and
humiliation as soon as its pur-
pose was declared, for each sue
seeding day gives emphasis to
the fact that the honest voters of
Bon Homme county will not toll
crate machine politics, and re-
CARELESS of party ties propose to
have a square deal.

a political sense is all that its

AS you read it in some of our
county weeklies. Theodore Roose-
welt is the greatest, grandest and
noblest, the demi-god. II is your
stern duty in order to preserve
the peace, progress and prosperity
of this nation and to preserve the
honor of the flag, to vote for
Johnny Konkypod for justice of
the peace. The Independent has
too much admiration for Roose-
welt TO see his progress impeded
by having Johnny attached to his
coat tail. If the republican cam
didates in Bon Homme county,
like Johnny, expect to slide into
Office by shouting Roosevelt, they
will soon be diSillusioned. No
man on earth would be quicker to
express contempt for such meth
DDS than Theodore Roosevelt.

FICTION

Tabor at last gets a newspaper,
something it long has been look
ing for. The first issue of the
Bon Home county Independent
comes to our desk. 1t is edited
by w. A. Glasner, late editor of
the Tyndall TRIBUNE, (republi-
CAM The Independent is very
optimistic as to the outcome of
the election, favoring the demo-
cratic side Of the house. The
familiar theme of the great num-
Der of republican candidates in
Tyndall is brought up and IN
larged upon. The fact that the
democrats have exactly the same
number of candidates from this
locality is forgotten entirely.
The Bon Homme county indie
pendent is a newspaper published
at Springfield and mailed at
Tabor. It is a democratic cam
pign sheet and will most likely
die out after election. -Tyndall
Tribune.
Were there not extenuating
circumstances, the above fiatulent
garruilIty might at least discoIn-
pose us, but when our readers I'M
derstand these circumstances and
consider who is the author of the
above spiel, they will, we hope,
render him sympathy, not blame.
His very lucid explanation of
something he knows nothing
about and his prophesy as TO its
end is as he would like it, no
doubt. AS he has resorted to
prophesy, il is our turn. Mr..
Robinson, the Bon Homme County
Independent, of Tabor, S. D.. will
be published for years after your
connection with the Tyndall Til
bune has been severed. (Reader,
please make a note of these
prophesies.) But we do not
blame you, it is only a case OF in
cipient mental hallucin o n
brought about by several causes,
the first and most fatal being
irrideScent dreams of future
greatness, of fitting from school
house to school house behind a
high stepping team, pausing only
to PROFOUND the ethics with
which he is so very familiar) to
the handsome school marm's, at
one hundred dollars per month.
Alas, my boy, your dreams will
never be realized. Take our ad-
vice, also take paregoric il
necessary, and do not indulge in
dreams. AS to our change OF
political faith, everyone with
whom we ever talked after the
action of the republican county
convention of 1902 will tell you
that we have not altered our
opinion one iota MOI do we ever
hope or expect to as long as our
county Offices are filled with capa-
Bile, honest men, nominated by
straight forward honest methods,
The Bon Homme County indie
pendent, of Tabor, has a large,
we'll equipped office, is on a solid
financial footing, its permanance
guaranteed by a state bank. We
forgot to ask Mr.. Robinson's per.
mission to hire our first two
issues printed on The Times
Power Press. We are.sorry he is
sore but think our explanation OF
his condition will excuse him for
directing an insult at Tabor and
handing out slush to intelligent
readers and voters. II is certain
, ly poor campaigning.

The old political machine of
Bon Homme county, which has
ground out grists of harmony for
10, these many years under the
direction of John l.. Turner, be-
come so worn out a few years ago
that il was discarded and a new
machine innaugurated, much to
the satisfaction Of those that had
been held under party rule so
long that il had grown stale.
Ckas. Hill, S. n. Brann and A. j.
Wilcox are the manufacturers of
the new machine and the late
invention is proving a success
beyond a doubt. -Platte Enter
