MARTIN VS.. GAMBLE.

One of the questions confront
ing the voters Of South Dakota
today is that of United States
senator. The present incumbent,
Robert J. Gamble, Of Yankton,
IS. D., who has held the office
for two terms, and whose term
expires the fourth of next March
is a candidate. for reelection,
also L. w. Martin, of Deadwood
S. D., at present a member OF
Congress and whose term eX-
pires March 4, 1907, is a candl-
date. They are both good men
but in our estimation, Mr.. Mar
tin is the strongest man OF the
two. Mr.. Gamble has devoted
six years to the office Of United
States Senator and, with the
exception Of a few minor APP
lprOpriations which he has Sc
eAred for the state, the outside
world does not know that there
is such a man as Gamble in the
senate or in the state. On the

other hand South Dakota has
had three other men at Wash
ington since Mr.. Pettigrew, who
have made themselves known
and felt by the nation in general.
Mr.. Martin has taken part in
the fight against the Beef Trust
corporations in general and was
the man who first raised the
question of refusing the report
Of Mr.. Garfield, who was the
head Of the Investigating COM
mittee to examine the working
Of the packers. He has intro
duCed a bill of his own making,
on how to control and govern
corporations. He has taken
part in every important action
which has come before congress
during his two terms and has
shown the people OF this United
States that South Dakota had
representation at the national
capitol Congressmen Martin
and Burke have worked togeth-
er and in connection with Mr..

REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION

The republican county central COM
mittee OF Mcpherson county South
Dakota, in compliance with statuary re-
quirements, has called a delegate con-
Vention Of the republicans of McPher-
son county, South Dakota, to meet at
Leola, in said county, on Tuesday, the
22nd day of May, 1906, at IL o'clock noon
for the purpose Of nominating fourteen
Q4) delegates to attend the republican
state convention called TO meet at
Sioux Falls, June 5th, 1906, and fourteen
QQ delegates to attend the senatorial
convention to be hereafter called for the
purpose Of nominating a sentOr for the
thirty-seventh senatorial district, and for
the transaction of such other business
as may be properly considered.
The ratio Of representation, as fixed,
will be as follows: One (D delegate for
each ten (l0) votes, or major fraction
thereof, cast for Hon. Samuel II. Elrod,
republican candidate for governor at the
election Of 1904. The representation to
which the several precincts will be en-
titled under this call is as follows:

Kittredge in the senate, have
made q record. 1t is an abso-
lutte fact that these men have
been too strong for Mr.. Gamble
to associate with. He could
not trot fast enough to keep
within sight of the trio. Now
comes the question OF who to
return to the United States SEN
ate, Mr.. Gamble or Mr.. Martin.
Do you want to send a man
there who is alive to the issues
OF the day and who is not
afraid to take part in the issues
as they come up, or do you
want to send a man who is
only a figure head and practic'
ally in the back ground all of
the time and who works mostly
for himself and a few personal
friends, and who, in order to
secure his ends, mingles with
others who are at logger heads
with the rank and file? Such to
day IS the position of Mr..
Gamble. He at once commenced,
when he heard that Mr.. Martin
was a candidate, to mingle with
a class Of sore heads who, thru
the stand they had taken, we're
outside Of party lines on all is,
sues. They are advocating prin-
ciples unknown to any party
They are not democratic or pop
ulistic doctrines, but purely an
unknown quantity. Now, are
these the men you want to rep
resent YOU in your state and
national affairs. We hardly
think it. We want men who
can and who will work. We
don't want men who will sit in
their seats from morning until
night and say yes or no when
their name is called. The people
of South Dakota have passed
that stage. South Dakota stands
near the head of the list ofstat tes
and she is a mere infant as yet.
Her farmers are among the most
prosperous today, they are
tramping right along and they
want to keep it up. Not stop
here. In order to do this you
must send your best and strong
est men to make your laws aud
enforce them after they are
made. In order to do this you
want up-tO-date men, and see
to it that You secure such. If
you do not send the best live
timber you can get to represent
You in the state and nation you
will drop out of sight entirely.
This is the reason why we ad-
vocate Mr.. f. w. Martin for the
United States senate. The same
rule extends to your state rep
resentatives. You must send
good live men as your advocates
or you will not be recognized.

ever but Attorney Wilson, for it is
now some years since the Professor
gave up school teaching with some
anxiety, .lest he find law as a pro-
fession, a starve to death way of
earning ones living. He has
now, however, found that the
change was a profitable one, giving
him a permanent home and better
income than teaching, Mrs.
Wilson staid at the fair during the
entire two weeks having a position
in the Wouian's Work department
of Manatee county. One of the
most elaborate pieces of fancy
work exhibited at the fair was an
elegant satin lined lace opera cloak,
the work of her hands, that she
offered for sale at 500, and con-
sidering the work on it the price
was low Young Master Wilson
is a sturdy youngster, and with
his father spent a day or two at
the fair.
Prof, P. w. Corr was another,
one of Arcadia's former citizens
whom we were pleased to meet.
The Professor has charge of the
Jasper Normal this year and was
down to Tampa on a visit to his
wife who still remains at Port
Tampa City. He speaks in high
terms of the city of Jasper, and
seems prosperous and happy.
Professor Richards and Miss
Callie were also visiting the fair.
They have been for some years at
home at Riverview, suburb Of
Tampa, and the Professor says he
is still teaching. Both himself and
daughter look as if the profession
agreed with them financially and
physically.
