roads was fixed BY the railroad
commissioners, . body that has ias
much to do with the taxes % has
the trainmen's association. Now
it says that the increase in appro-1
priations by the last Legislature was
due to the expense Of building .

tol are derived from the sale Of

Republican does compliment to the
South Dakota Roosevelt league by
saying It's second choice would be
LaF gillette. Sioux City Tribune,
II the members OF the Roosevelt
League consider this . compliment.
they are very anxious to conceal
the fact from the voters. The
president has declared that under
no conditions will he accept an
other nomination, so vote for
him would be only complimentary
and il is the second choice of this
league that the voters want to know.
This fact the league is carefully
concealing. Is the Tribune letting
the cat out of the bag?

Mr.. and Mrs. rifiths, Mr.. and
Mrs. II. G. Gunn, J. NJ. Dunmire,
Mr.. Maxwell and the writer toak
the special train last Thursday for
Huron to attend the state fair. AS
the train did not reach Huron un-
til after noon andl left at six o'clock
p. m. those who returned with the
excursion had very little time in
which to take observations. The
grounds are nicely situated and we'll
provided with buildings for the ac-
commodation of stock and other
exhibits. The display Of live stock
was certainly fine, and by far the
best that we have ever seen at the
state fair, and better than we have
seen in the previous years at the
Inter State fair in Sioux City. 9th
er exhibits are also said to have
been very creditable by those who
had time to see them. The crowd
was immense, the attendance that
day being over 16, 900. The receipts
from admissions during .sthe six
days were $4,000, which exceeds
that Of any previous year by sever
al thousands of dollars. The as
sociation is now we'll established
and the annual exhibitions should
improve from year to year. The
inconvenience in reaching the fair
city from this part of the state is a
serious drawback and unless 1T is
improved the attendance from here
can never be very large. An ex-
excursion train was run one day
and passengers on this had less
than six hours at the fair. On 9th
or days it was necessary to stay
over night in Wolsey, both coming
and going, as no effort was made
when trains were a little late, to
make connections at Wolsey. If
the state fair managers hope to in
wade the territory adjacent to Sioux
City they must improve upon the
railroad facilities. We would Ialso
suggest that liberal supply of
shade trees be planted upon the
grounds.

The so-called Roosevelt League
met in Huron last week, Resolu-
tions endorsing the policies OF Pres.
Roosevelt were passed, aud it was
determined to organize the state
for the purpose Of electing dele
CATION to the national convention
pledged to support the president
for denomination. One fellow
who had evidently not been made
wise to the real purpose Of the
movement offered a resolution that
in case the president should refuse
to accept the nomination himself
that the South Dakota delegation
should support the candidate whom
the president favored. Of course
this resolution was promptly voted
down. Under a pledge Of that
kind they could not s'Steal the liv-
cry of heaven to serve the devil in. !"
In other words they could not use
the popularity of the president to
help elect a delegation to be used
for selfishlpurposes. The leaders
of the movement then went into a
secret conference which lasted for
some hours. The result of this
conference has not been made pub
lie, but the friends of several cam
didates for gubernatorial honors
were anxiously watching the pro-
ceedings, and from remarks that
some of them made it was evident
that the slate was being prepared
for the next campaign.

company, was prompt in issuing yes
terday an authoritative denial of state,
ment made earlier in the day on oppar-

Standard Oil company contemplated a
reorganization of its affairs.
The original statement was called out
by an inquiry concerning 4 conference
which it had been reported was 70 be
held at the home Of H. II. Rogers, at
Fair Haven, Mass, yesterday. The state
ment denied that there would be such
conference at Fair Haven and stated
that since his illness Mr. Rogers had not
been consulted upon Standard Oil maS.
ters.
Later in the day Mr.. Archbold gave
out at the offices OF the company here a
denial of the above, saying:
The published statement to the effect
that the Standard Oil company is about
to confer as to changing its name, ex-
tending its capitalization and 50 forth,
is unauthorized and untrue"
