Rev. smock Has a Flatterine CAN.

Rev. Smock Has Flattering Call.
Rev. P. M. Smock returned Sunday
from his eastern visit. The object Of
his journey east was to fill an engage
ment at Fulton Avenue Baptist church
of Baltimore, Md, for two Sundays.
After he had left there and was visit
ing at the home of his mother in Penn
sylvania he received a telegram inform
ing him that he had been unanimously
elected by the pastoral committee Of
the church as their pastor, and the
action of the committee had been con.
firmed by vote of the church. This
is very high compliment, for Balti-
more is the sixth city of the United
States, and this Baptist church ranks
second in the city, with the largest
Sunday school in the state, and be.
sides the church has been trying
preachers ever since last November.
The STAR congratulates Mr.. Smock
upon this recognition of his abilities.
Rev. Smock says that he has not yet
decided whether he will accept the call
or not, as he fears that climate might
disagree with his wife's health. He
expects to announce his decision Sun.
day morning.
His church. and many friends here
would regret his leaving, but such q
high call must be great temptation

MIR. BUELL. WITHDRAWs
Chas. j. Buell. withdraws as Candidate
for Congress.-Most Wise
Decision.

| Chas j. Buell. Withdraws as Candidate
for COngress.-Most Wise
Decision,
Tie following appeared in Wednes-
days Lead Call:
cat noon today the Cali received
information direct from Charles j.
Buell., he talking in person over the
long distance telephone, to the effect
that he had withdrawn from the con-
test for one of the congressional
nominations within the gift of the
republican state convention, and that
he would take no further part in the
campaign"
This was the first information Hot
Springs had Of such move, and while
it is in the nature of a surprise it was
known that many Rapid City citizens
regretted the action they took when
in their hot-headed moments they
encouraged Mr.. Buell. to become
candidate. and we're looking for some
way out of their dilemma. And the
more they learned of the sentiment of
the people throughout their Penning-
tony county the more convinced were
they that they had made a mistake.
Mr.. Buell. evidently realized the same
thing and has done the manly and
wise thing. The republicans generally
Of the Black Hills will congratulate
Mr. Buell. and his Rapid City friends
upon his withdrawal, for it avoids
political contest in that county which
would have resulted in no good to Mr..
Buell-for even had he won his county,
which was doubtful, he would have
lost in the end and been politically
discredited throughout the state.
This is the beginning of the end of
insurgency IN the state. Their COL
lapse will soon be complete. MIR. Buell.
is wise enough to foresee it all.
