Friday evening Of last week Hon.
Coe l. Crawford, anti-machine repub.
liean candidate for governor, ad-
dressed q good audience In the Court
House. We see no reason to revise
our comment on Mr. Crawford made
several weeks ago at the time of his
Huron speech. Al that time MIR.
Crawford only assumed the existence
of q republican ''machine;'' now he
has become more positive, asserts that
there is such q machine and came
perilously near identifying 1t with the
two representatives of the two leading
railroads In this state who are gener-
ally recognized as lobbyists ia the in
terest Of their roads. Mr.. Crawford .

attempt to destroy the present con-

zation is corrupt and the people CAN
be convinced that the candidate has
both the ability and the disposition to
reform matters, this plea will win. In
the present campaign there is little
question as to Mr.. Crawford's ability
and disposition, and still less as to any
general or serious corruption In the
party organization. For these reasons
Mr.. Crawford IS campaign will fail.
Mr.. Crawford is evidently at serious
outs with the present state organiza.
tion. He appeals to the voters direct,
as he has q perfect right to do, and his
appeal is TO put them out and put him
In. He does not charge corruption
against the present state Organization
only that IL Is opposed TO him. Al
the preliminary caucuses and at the
state convention the voters will decide
whether to continue present condi.
tions, or to break away and organize q
Crawford machine. The handwriting

PRES ROOSEVELT is likely to veto
the blllEopening the lands Of the Rose
bud agency to settlement unless the
price per acre is raised. He is reported
as being ia favor Of selling the lands TO
the highest bidder. Undoubtedly
SO per acre is too low for a good deal
of the Rosebud land, but as long as
the communication clause is cut out
and iye years. actual residence Is re-
quired, we are inclined to believe that
a higher rate would delay the settle
ment of these lands many years. The
price agreed upon in the bill was once
accepted by a large majority OF the
Indians and would be much more liber-
al to them than in many previous
openings. We trust the presidents
opposition may be overcome and the
bill go into effect substantially as It

Yankton would accommodate them

And Vermillion would tighten
their load of travelling expenses still
more, and Elk Point would afford q

this line of argument serves no good
purpose for Pierre, so far as we can

travelling to Yankton, Vermillion, Elk
