Stoneville. The corpse was covered
with six inches OF snow, except for q

A CLAY COUNTY FAIR.
Board of Directors Decide to Hold Fair
With Three Days Races This Year

With Three Days Races This Year
The board Of directors of the Clay
County Fair association have decided
to hold the annual fair this year, and
instead of two days races there will
be three. At former meeting OF
the directors it was almost concluded
to cut out the race program, but this
did not satisfy many, and they were
in favor of giving up the fair alto
gether. Now the association has
joined the Northwestern Iowa Racing
circuit, which means that purses ag.
gregating $1,000 must be hung up. 1t
is possible that school day will be
done away with.

Going to sioux Falls.

The Business men OF Sioux Falls
did a wise thing when they induced
Mr.. Toland to establish one of his
famous schools in that city. The To
land School, though less than two
months old, has already sec ured an
enrolment larger than that Of any
similar school In the state. Mr.. To-
lands wonderful success is due to the
fact that his students receive a thor
ougii modern and practical training
not to be obtained elsew here, and,
when qualified are sent to first class
positions. More than 5000 are now
holding such positions. Quite a num-
Der from this vicinity are now in at
tendance and all claim that the
school is ever better than it claims to
be and a number Of others expect to
enter at the beginning OF the Winter
Term, announcement OF which will be
found In another column.

- Will Of the People.
An Awkward Position.

One Of the most anomalous situa-
tions ever presented IN the history Of
politics Is that which exists today In
South Dakota.
BY an overwhelming vote the peo-
pie declared for the enactment Of a
primary election law, for the abolition
Of the pass system, for tax reform,
for governmental control OF corpora
tions and other measures In line with
the spirit OF progress.
What they declared for has been ac-
complished BY the Republican govern
OF and legislature.
Strange to relate, a man. Senator
KittFedRe, denounces these reform
measures as fakes and humbugs and
at the same time asks the people who
demanded their enactment to elect
him to q seat In the United States
senatel His organs have never had
anything but words OF denunciation
and contempt for every act Of the Re-
publican administration and MI. Kit
tredge, SO far, has failed to say where
40 his disgruntled faction proposes
u amend the new legislation should
they be given the power. Conse.
quently 10 Is q natural conclusion that
he Is ia favor OF the repeal Of laws.
II Ii probably the frst time on rec
ord whore q candidate seeks q place
from : party to which he Is antagon-
isttc. At the opening Of the cam
paign ia February 1906 Senator Gam
bic, seeking 9 denomination as United
States senator, csme out as strongly
= language could express 1t, without
hesitation or ~equivocation, In advo-
eating the reform measures which
have since been enacted into law and
pled9ing himself to stand with the
president in his fight for the suprem-
acy Of law over corporate rule.
When the people elected Mr.. Gam
