The Aberdeen American of Jan.
10, in giving report Of the proceed
ings at Pierre, by their correspond
ent, dated Jan. 10, 1928 a. M, is
interesting. The article contain S
what is purported to be M. Gamble S
reason for having his son appointed
to fill certain position at the capi-
tOl where the presence Of the ap.
pointee was not necessary. just to
draw pay, it having been a custom
to fill these positions because they
existed. We can hardly believe
that our government makes a prac-
tice Of having open positions like
this just to help dispose of the
revenue which accumulates at our
national capitol. Wecertainly gave
r. J. Gamble credit for mere sense
than to think be could make the peo-
pie of South Dakota believe such 9
statement. II he can make them be-
lieve his stateme 1T, be is dandy,
and is entitled to reelection and a
life position foY his son.
