High School Football

team, accompanied by a few rooters,
arrived in the city FRIDAY evening
and proceeded to teach the Miller
boys what football game was Sat-
urday afternoon, to the tune of SO
to {. The game was played at the
fair grounds on a new field, and
when it is taken into consideration
that this was the first game the
home boys have ever played, the
score is not one of which to be
ashamed.
The first half was decidedly a
walk away for the Pierre boys, but
in the second the Miller team got
down to business, and did some very
good work. holding the down their
opponents. Miller has some good
material in her team, and with a
little more actual experience in the
game, will be able to carry the M.

circles. The boys will go to Pierre

LABOR MEN AFTER
VIM. LaFOLLETTE
Hard Shot at Democratic Candi-
date for Lieut-GOvernOr

Sioux Falls, Oct. 22-'To the
Members of Organized Labor of
South Dakota
Brothers: We desire to call
your attention to the fact that there
is on the democratic state ticket the
name of William T. LaFollette, who
is candidate for Lieutenant-gover-
nor of South Dakota. This man is
one of the bitterest enemies of or
ganized labor that the country pos
sesses. He does not believe that a
member of organized labor has any
rights others are bound to respect.
He boasts of his prowess in being
able to disrupt the typographical
union of Mitchell, and then set out
to destroy organized labor in Sioux
Falls. He flooded this city with vile
attacks on the typographical union
and organized labor in general of
the city, but soon abandoned the
fight as it did not meet with the re-
sponse he anticipated. Now he ap-
pears before the people for one of
the high Offices in the gift of the
state and asks the suffrage of voters,
labor the same as unor-
ganized.
1t is contended by this man La
Toilette that organized labor cannot
be centralized IN voting, therefore
he has defied the unions, and even
now, on the eve of a great battle,
boasts that organized labor can do
him no harm. 1t is for you, broth
theirs, to say whether or not his con-
tention is correct, and if it is, then
we must confess that our efforts to
destroy the political ambitions of
arch-enemies of our cause are for
However, if you believe that he
can be rebuked, and intend to vote
the democratic ticket. see that his
name is scratched. Do not merely
pass his name in marking the ticket,
but vote for some other candidate
for the same office. The mere
of his name is only half
vote, whereas to scratch his name
and vote for some other candidate
is whole vote against him.
Get busy, and let's make good
and demonstrate to this man, the
worst enemy organized labor of
south Dakota ever had, that we can
'ebuke an enemy by our votes.
There is much at stake on this issue.
Let us hear from you.

The Bryan Scare and Slump

Philadelphia Ledger, Independent
Two or three weeks ago there
was Bryan scare, and now the
scare is succeeded by Bryan slump.
Many people are puzzled by this ap-
parently whimsical lurch of public
opinion, and incline to attribute the
change to an unreasonable fickleness,
They are at fault. This swing of
public opinion is one of the
most hopeful signs in American pol
itics. 1t demonstrates that the peo-
pie think. pierce sophistry, weigh
sentiment. estimate character, then
decide.

PIVOTAL STATES
ROUSED BY TAFT
Great Crowds Cheering Republic
can Candidate

Indianapolis. Oct. 23.-(Associated
Press Report. THE days exhibi-
tion of political enthusiasm in Indi-
ana has been such as to eclipse all
previous campaigns, according to
national and state leaders who have
been with the Taft special. So
great have been the crowds every
where that even the arrangements
of the local committees have been
over-ridden.
Beginning at Brazil with a mon
ster meeting at 7 o'clock this morn
ing, the Taft special made COM
plete fifty-mile circuit around In
dianapolis, which was reached at 9
o'clock tonight. Charlottesville,
Lafaette, Frankfort, Marion, An
derson, Muncie and Kokomo were
visited in turn and each was a repe-
tition in teeming populace and en-
thusiasm.
At Anderson he said:
Your coming here in such num-
bers testifies to your interest in the
election in Novembnr: testifies to
the fact that Indiana is republican;
that you appreciate the Importance
of continuing the prosperity that we
have enjoyed for ten years is res
toration of confidence. and you can
never bring that about if you put
into the executive chair a man who
has so many half-baked unfounded
economic theories as the leader of
democracy"
1t was reserved for indianapolis
to furnish the climax of the day of
crowds and noise. A tremendous
parade awaited his arrival, with &C
cessories multiplied and enhanced.
The three meetings were attended
by the candidate, his extended effort
of the day being before an immense
audience at Virginia Avenue auditor
ium, where Vice-President Fairbanks
presided. Senator Hemenway and
Representative Overstreet officiated
at two other meetings which were
held in the open.

ITS A GOOD RACE
AMONG THE GIRLS
Close Races in Miller, St. Law
renee and Howell Districts
Good Contests in Several of the
Districts

The Press five ring contest has
created some close races in several
of the districts, and many readers
of the paper at home and abroad
are attracted by it. Former resid-
ents of the county now living in
other states are sending in their
votes for their favorltes. A very
satisfactory number of new sub
scribers have been added to the list
by request of the girls among their
friends.
The payment of subscriptions in
several cases have been for three to
five years ahead, and in one instance
farmer of South Hand county has
paid for his Press to 1914. to help
his favorite girl.
All votes sent in are carefully and
honestly recorded for the wish of the
patron, whatever his business with
this office, subscription, advertising.
or job printing. The Press has no
desire to influence the choice of any
one, but simply requests each pat
ron to name his or her own choice.
These five diamond rings are Of
fered as an interesting advertise
ment for the Press and it's business.
They were purchased of the Wilson
Jewelry Co. and paid for when the
contest began.
They will be cheerfully given to
the five girls selected by Press pat
rons--and it is fair to all to state
that the selection will largely de-
pend upon the efforts the girls them
selves make among their acquaint-
ances. 1t is easy to solicit either
subscribers, advertising, or job
printing for the Press, because peo-
pie want the paper, and business
men want printing.
Read this weeks changes.
