The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1908-10-30

The Chicago Record-Herald secur-
ed a straw vote of South Dakota on
presidential candidates as between
Judge Taft and Mr.. Bryan. The pa
per gave out the information that
Judge Taft would carry the state by
$4,000. We are inclined to doubt the
statement of the Record-Herald on
the ground that it has not placed the
majority high enough. The method
of securing the poll only reaches a
certain class and the deductions are
drawn from that number as to how
the entire state is going to vote. 1t
is the estimate of those more
thoroughly in touch with the situa-
ton in the state that Judge Taft will
come much closer to getting twice

jure the public credit, but effectively
hobbled by existing laws, does not
present an attractive picture to the
independent journal quoted. 1t is
disposed of by The Transcript in
these words: "The democratic orr
ganization is now constituted, even
If every allowance is made for the
influence of its conservative ele--
mants, is a house divided against
itself on questions of financial policy
and even the most optimistic could
hope no more from the slow pro-
gress of Mr.. Bryan toward sound
principles than that halfway meas
ures would be resorted to in time of
stress, and that they might be taken
too late to avert appalling disaster"
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1908-10-30

Chairman Mack is making Bryan's
election possible at the present time
by claiming a certain number of states
which will give him the electoral col
lege vote, the democrat national
chairman asserting that Bryan would
receive 301 votes. As an optimist
Mr.. Mack lays everybody else in the
shade. According to his specifications
the republicans might as we'll fold
their tents and retire from the poll
tical arena. However, Macks enthu-
siasm is too far in advance of what
, the real situation is. OF course the
solid south vote of 1G6 is naturally
conceded to Mr.. Bryan, and Mack as
! serts that Bryan will carry New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut. Ida
no, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, In
diana, Ohio, Delaware, Kansas, and
South Dakota, and to this list the
Chicago headquarters Of the Bryan
party added on Monday the states of
| Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Utah, Ore
gon and Washington. Now Mack
might as well go on ad infintum, and
take the whole United States. The
claims are absurd on their very face
and the democratic leader evidently
intends to carry the bluff right up TO
election day. He will have some
thing to answer for should the demo-
Gratis follow his judgment and bet
on Bryan only to lose their money,
Take South Dakota rs one of the
states claimed by Mack. If his judg-
ment is no better on the other states
than on South Dakota he has mighty
small ideas Of the way the politics
of the country are running. IL is not
expected that Judge Taft will receive
the same large vote of President
Roosevelt, and because there is a
falling off of that vote here Mack's
informants take it that the state will
go for Bryan. 1t is an absolute mis-
take on the part of Mack to claim
this state, for Bryan will never get
1t.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1908-10-30

Republicans do not want to forget
that they must be sure and vote the
small ballot for the short term con-
gresham. e. w. Martin, who is al
so the candidate for the long term,
was nominated to fill the vacancy of
Col. Parker, and a separate ballot
has been prepared for it. Place an X
in front of Mr.. Martins name and
your duty in that regard will have
been performed. The democrats are
hoping that they can slip in their
candidate through the neglect of the
republican voters, not thinking it
necessary to vote for Martin twice,
but this idea should not be lost sight
of-you must vote for Martin twice
once for the short term and once
for the two-year term.

Minneapolis bankers, and in st.
Paul, too, have dropped the rate of
interest for money from 6 to Z per
cent to Az to 5 per cent-on the
ground that they are satisfied that
Judge Taft will be elected president.
Minneapolis bankers assert that this
is the first presidential campaign in
a great many years since rate of in
terest has gone below the usually
high rate in the latter part of a pre-
sidential campaign. 1t is a pretty
strong indication that the business
men of the country are supporting
Judge Taft, and the business men
employ just a few laborers.

FEAR BUSINESS DEPRESSION.

A number of C%hicagois most prom
inent business men nave Issued a
statement saying that in heir opin-
ion the election of Mr.. Bryan would
bring great industrial and business
depression. This has aroused the
activity of Chairman Mack Of the
democratic national committee, and
he had taken exception to the state
ment, claiming that no one has the
right to foster a panic in this way,
and these business men told Mr..
Mack hat his attitude was an insult
to the intelligence of tho American
voters.
But it is % necessary to rely on
the statement of the republican bdsi-
ness man to ascertain the real Q in
ion of what effect Mr.. Bryan's elect-
ion would have on the business IL
terests of the country. 1t comes
from a supporter and official member
of the Bryan family-IIerman Rider,
the editor of the New York Stats
Zeitung. 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. Ridder went out to the dem
ocratic national convention and stop
ped at Lincoln to personally implore
Mr.. Bryan to withdraw from the
presidential race, but of course he
could not listen to anything OF that
character. Mr.. Ridder was pacifed,
and after Governor Haskell was re-
moved for his association in oil, Mr..
Ridder was appointed to the position.
Here is what Mr.. Rider wrote con-
corning Mr.. Bryan's possible elect
ion:
Mr.. Bryan's election surely would
cause a disturbance of the industrial
and economic development of the
country. We deem a republican
victory less dangerous for the ooun-
try than the election of Mr.. Bryan.
Nothing better could happen to the
party than to get rid of this incubus.
The east is too conservative and level

who on economical questions is ig-
norant and who, prompted by his
confused notions, would grasp the
first oportunity to cause a terrible
catastrophe. He does not possess
real knowledge or comprehension OF
the problems with which he seeks
to concern himself
When prominent democrats and
scores of others with their following
dnd in Mr.. Bryan a mar to be dis
trusted, how in the world can any
republican consider the thought for
N moment of voting for Mr.. Bryan.
His own friends condemn in him the
very things that are highly essential
in a president. 1t is thus acknow-
lodged from their own ranks that
Mr.. Bryan cannot meet the respon-
sibilities, and when they take that
view of him, certainly no republican
a think differently.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1908-10-30

with the support of the candidates
on the county ticket. The republic
can ticket should be elected from top
to bottom and not one man cut on
the grounds that are being advanced
hope of cutting down the strength
of the republican party.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1908-10-30

that number. South Dakota people
have little or no reason for voting
for Mr.. Bryan, and his task, we be-
lieve, is an hopeless one if he in
tends to cut down the vote of Judge
Taft to any appreciate extent.
