G.. A SOuth's Announcement.

In placing myself before the peo-
pie of Lincoln county as an independ-
emit candidate for the office OF State
Senator it is meet that l submit 20
the voters my reasons for so doing and
the platform of principles to which !
stand pledged. | am in hearty accord
with the republican platform promul,
gated at it's last state convention, and
especially desire the plankS relating TO
the primary election law, the aboll-
tion of the free pass system, the pro-
hibitiOn of campaign contributors
from corporations, and prohibit
ing a lobby by special interests
at our legislature to be speedily. en-
acted into laws. | am in favor OF the
immediate repeal of all laws passed
for the purpose of permitting n as
sisting certain state officers TO draw
from the public funds larger sums
than the salaries fixed by Our state
constitution. l believe that all such
laws are palpable e%vasions Of the con-
stitution, unjust to the taxpayers,
and a menace to civil liberty. If any
salary is fixed too low by our conStitu-
tion, 1 believe that honesty and pat
riotism alike demand that the voters
of the state should be appealed to to
amend the constitution in that be-
half. [ am therefore in favor of the
immediate repeal of the law creating
an emergency fund whereby Sl400
additional salary is wrongfully paid
to our governor. l am in favor OF
putting into immediate operation the
Irvine factory at our state peniten-
tiary, and also creating a fund for the
manufacture at that institution of
harvesting machinery, to the end
that the prison may become more
self supporting, and u farmers as
far as possible relieved from the TX
orbitant e~xactions of the Harvester
Trust. l believe that our law relat-
ing to the sale of Intoxicating liquors
is unjust in that it restricts such reg
ulation to the voters residing in the
cities and towns, thereby depriving
the sixty-eight per cent of our voters
who reside outside the towns from
any vote upon the subject. | there
fore favor a law giving every voter OF
this county the right to vote on this
matter. If such law cannot be pas
sed, I favor amending the present
law so Is to make any city or town
licensing such sale liable for the costs
of all prosecutions or damages arising
from such licensed sale, believing
that it is just that the towns receiv-
ing the license money should bear the
burden it imposes. Upon these prin-
/ submit my candidacy pledg-
ing my best efforts in their behalf if
elected. If you favor them give me
your vote.
G. A. South:
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1906-10-19

Charles A. South has announced
himself an independent candidate
for state senator, and while the
Leader accords every citizen the
right Of independent political action,
the opinion is quite general that the
question of the peoples choice for
this Office was fairly and broadly de-
cided at the primary last month. Mr..
South's platform and Mr.. Laxson's
platform are identical with the ex-
ception Of county local option, and on
that they differ, and the difference
will stand close investigation. Coun-
ty option and town option on the
liquor question brings us face to face
with a question over which we can
all honestly differ. and our views on
the matter will be found in another
column. Mr.. Laxsan was the choice
OF the voters by a majority over both
his opponents at the primary, a fair
and honorable Test as to his fitness
for the position, and we can say to
South in all candor that we can
see no necessity for an independent
at this time. It is how
ever MI. South's privilege to become
q candidate and the relative merits
of the two gentlemen will be passed
upon by the voters November 9th.

Quien and Stevenson Lost and
Found a Team.

On Wednesday Of last week a man
who claimed to live in Iowa, hired a
team from Quien & Stevenson saying
he was going to give his brother and
his bride and her sister a drive. They
started and drove to Hawarden where
the team was offered for sale by a
nan who was not OF the party at Can-
ton. He offered the team, carriage
and all for $3.50 and finally came down
to S165. Failing to sell he drove
down to Akron where the team was
put in a livery stable and the thief
decamped. The team was finally
located and Walt Stevenson went
after 1t returning home Tuesday
evening. Walt says If he could see
that bridal party for a short sea-
son he would try and convince them
that that kind of a wedding trip was
a failure. The next wedding party
of strangers that calls on Quien 81
Stevenson will have to show their
credentials before they can get a rig
for a honeymoon trip. This outfit
evidently needed a little money to
start housekeeping with. Liverymen
have to face many risks but a honey
moon trip is a way getting away
with a team.

To the Voters.

/ offer no apology for my intrusion
upon your attention nor have | con
sented to become a candidate for the
office of State Senator for my own
personal benefit, but under the belief
that some one should be placed in
nomination other than the regular
nominee. In fact, many voters have
demanded another nominee. If l am
elected l shall be pleased, If defeated
/ hope l shall not regret the action /
have taken. / know the voters of this
county will be guided by what they
believe to be for the best, and sincere
ly trust that those who know believe
that l will not betray their trust. 1
have lived in Lincoln county 81
years, and have assisted in making it
one Of the finest counties in the state.
l have borne my share of the trials
and hardships of the pioneer. One Of
the chief differences between me and
my opponent is this: Under existing
laws, sixty-eight per cent Of the vot-
ers Of this county are DISTINGUISHED in
the matter of regulating the sale Of
intoxicating liquor, while t~hirty-two
per cent who live in the cities and
towns actually dictate as to its regu-
lation. Farmers who are equally in
terested in this subject, are by the
present law deprived Of a vote on the
question. An effort, will be made in
the coming legislature to enact a
local option law; my opponent says he
will oppose it. This is Of the
reasons for my candidacy.
Trusting you will carefully consider
the matter before voting,
l am very sincerely,
n A. CN1th .

High School annual to be published
toward the end Of the year and to
contain a complete record of all
school activities for the year. Percy

The Hawarden High School comes
this Thursday p. m. for return game
of football.
It's vigorous sport with just enough
of danger in it to show up a boys

pretty sure the boys who play wont
be the ones who a few years from now
will be sitting on street de-
crying the boyish sports of the next
generation.
A club is being organized among
the boys of the 4th to 18th grades n

report. If it is not satisfactory, try
to find out why. Sign and return
promptly.
There will be no school on Friday

Burglars Neatly Captured.

Policeman Bob Brenner received
word Tuesday afternoon that a burg
larry had been committed at Elan
dreau during the previous night.
Bob notified Chief Berg and together
they went down into the Milwaukee
yards to see what they could find and
they found five suspicious characters
that would answer for anything des-
perate.
The officers walked up to the fell
lows and Bob said we want you fell
lows to 60 up town with us. Two Of
them exchanged suspicious glances
and smiled with an air OF contempt
as the officers showed no sign of being
armed. Instantly one of the burg
lars threw his coat on his left arm
and put his hand behind him where he
carried a big gun loaded and ready
for action, but Bob was watching
him sharply and the instant his hand
went for the nip pocket Bob pulled
a gun out Of his pocket and called
hands up or off goes your head and
the big fellow sullenly raised his
arms as did the others. They were
searched and on two of them was
found six loaded revolvers, several
watches, about thirty razors and a
burglars kit. They were marched to
the city bastile and placed where they
would be safe with a guard over them
for the night.
Three of the five were evidently
common hobos as they had nothing
to indicate that they were connected
with the burglars because the goods
found were described as stolen from
Flandreau during the previous night,
and the men captured were the fell
lows wanted up in Moody county.
1t was lucky thai Bob had his hand
on his gun when the big fellow reach
ed for his else the officers might have
met with a bullet instead of surrend-
err. Bob never goes down into the
hobos retreat on business unless he is
ready to meet any emergency on the
instant.
Officers telephoned from tlandreau
Tuesday evening to hold the fellows
as they would come after them We'd
nesday morning and they did. The
Canton officers nailed a gang OF des-
perate men and turned them over to
the Moody county Sheriff upon pay
ment of a reward of $50.

Sioux City.

A train Of four coaches with a
handsomely uniformed band and fifty
or more Sioux City business men ar
rived in Canton Thursday forenoon,
and marched uptown. EX-Mayor
Caldwell, "Our Cal," SO well known
in the state, mounted the band stand
and made a speech telling of the
grandeur of the Sioux Valley, giving
Canton a great big boost and telling
us how proud we ought to be of our
glorious country. Cal represents the
Sioux City Journal and w. A. Camp
bell the Sioux City Tribune. 1t was
a happy crowd and they were doing
things in the Sioux City way. Mayor
Gemmill loaned them the keys of the
city while In town.
