senator kittrsdge in Elk Point

Last night Senator Kittredge opened
the campaigD In Elk Point W lth a
| speech ln the court house as announced
He was met at the depot by com
| mittee consisting of j +. Webber,
| Peter Quaam, Andrew Martin, E E,
Sherman, Editor Bruce, Howard Mosier
James Halliday and escorted TO the
| court house. A fter two pleas % q
| Chairman II. f. Brock Introduced,
with few we'll chosen words, the
speaker of the evening, Senator A. B.
klttredee.
| The court room was crowded, many
going away without finding sears at
| all, There was an unusually large
! attendance of ladies. A good sprinkling
| OF democrats was present, as we'll as
many representative insurgent poll
| ticiaus.
We shall not attempt to reproduce or
even epitomize Senator Klttredg ge's
| remark. Two weeks ago We published
his Mitchell speech in full, The main
| features of the two addresses were the
same. the honorable senator taking pre-
csely the same ground in each. He
announced himself, which was hardly
necessary, as unequlvocably aud un-
reservedly in favor of Pres. Roosevelt
and his policies. He urged that the
republicans of South Dakota should
send an instructed delegation to the
national convention in Chicago to
nominate the president, this being the
rule with no exception since state
hood. He also urged Vim. FL TAFT as
the presidents choice and the peoples
choice, the candidate above all theirs
best qualified to carry out the presi-
dents we'll begun but incOmpleted
policies.
His action and vote in the Smoos
matter came in for explanation and he
certainly lost no friends in this audi
ence for his position here. The same
can be said Of the Bristol Case, Fair
| minded men remarked that instead Of
having just ground for crilicism, the
Bristol matter seems to have been used
| by the enemies of Senator Kittredge e
as club for the lack of something
worse. he showed that he had teen a
railroad lawyer In the same way that
| Gov. Crawford has been railroad law
yer, in the same way that any lawyer
would serve any client He declared
strongly in favor OF cent passenger
rate In this state, cheapsr aud more
equitable freight rates and that inter
est on all state funds should accrue to

| Senator Kittredge is not magnetic
Speaker. OF his earneslness, positive
ness, good judgment and square-loed
common sense, no listener ia the audi
ence could have any doubt. He is a
man OF deeds rather than of words, and
this Is quality which ia the long run
wins out and wins we'll In the highest
legislative body of the nation. South
Dakota is proud OF her junior senator
and the marvellous, almost unparallel-
ed record of the achievements of his
first term. She will honor herself and
honor him by endorsing him strongly
IN the June primaries and reelecting
him overwhelmingly and triumphantly
in the November election.

WHAT Is SAUCE FOR The GOOSE IS
SAUCE FOR THE GANDER

BE 1T FURTHER RESOLVED, That
this Committee hereby expresses It's
con tidence in Governor Coe [. Craw.
ford, and in his Integrity of charac er,
high purposes, and unwavering fJelily y
10 the principles of Progressive Re
pubilcapsm as declared by President
Roosevelt. And we hereby uure serv ed
ly endorse the HonorabIe Coe l. Craw-
foId's candidacy for the United States
Senate.
The above resolutions we're voted
against by all the Stalwart membei OF
the State Central Committee, inc'ud-
ing Senator Klttredge's Private Sec
retary, who attended the meeting with
five proxies, which clearly proves that
the Stal warts are not for Roosevelt or
Taft unless it carries Senator Kit
tredge's endorsement with it, Which
simply means that the Stalwarts are
for Kittredge first and anybody for
President, otherwise they would have
voted for the above resolutions. The
fact that they did not, simply proves
their insincerity The above resolu-
tons were carried by vote of 20 to 10.

1t is matter of much surprise 10
those who have not heretofore lnvestl-
gated the facts, to note the large mum
bsr of men who were Crawford sup
porters in 1906 who are now supporting
Senator Kittredge for reelection,
Scores of these men were at Mitchell
and enthusiasticall entered into the
spirit of the occasion. From one
lunty in this st ttte-Pennington -
there We're not less than dozen dele
gates at Mitchell, according kiltredge
the warmest support, who wera for
Crawford two years ago. From Gank-
too county, Beadle county, Sanborn
county, and many other counties, were
men congregated at Mitchell who were
in the Crawford ranks in 1906. Their
contention is that Senator Kittredge
has been true to the interests Of the
people. that he is man of recognized
ability and of sincerity of purpose, and
that South ID tkpta will make a mistake
which it will some day regret if at
this time it substitutes Mr. -Cra wford
for Senator Kittredge at Washington

The joy in her eyes died away when
she found that the captain merely re-
quired translator. The restraint she
imposed on herself made her tongue
trip. She had to ask Suarez to repeat
his statement twice before she was
able to put it into English.
"He says that the Indians only kim
die a fire on that point when they
want the signal to be seen from the
sea-" she explained at last "They
used it once to his knowledge when
some Of them had gone to the island
out there to kill seals. He cannot guess
what it portends today, but he is quite
sure that they have many more canoes
at command than those which you now
see up the bay"
Courtenay could not fail to notice
her agitation. His quick intent was to
soothe her.
Il am afraid my sending for you in
such hurry rather alarmed you. Sua-
rez strikes me as a person of nerves.
He overrates the enemy, Miss Max

heart to pity them a moment ago"
She was glad he misunderstood the
cause of her agitation.
"Suarez is certainly rather dramatic, -
she said, smiling wistfully. II ought
to have discounted his Spanish mode
Of address. But is it really necessary
that should remain below"
"It is. If shots are fired or stones

WHITE SOX LOSE GAME.

Neither the cunning of Doc White
nor the shrieks of 10000 of Chicago
and the Calumet regions bugs could
stay the st. Louis Browns from ele-
waiting themselves into first place at
the expense of the Sox yesterday.
White twirled valiantly and the bugs
yelped their level best but a score of
+ to 0, with the former champions on
the bland end of it, sticks out prom
inently in the table of vital statistics.
1t was the third time in the series
between the Sox and Browns that a
shutout was scored. Old Rube opened
up the set with goose eggs for the Sox;
then Walsh evened it up with goose
eggs for the Browns and Harry Howell
handed out the Easter eggs for the
South Siders in the third game They
say Waddell is going to serve another
order of eggs to the Sox this after
noon, but Jones says his gang will
scramble them for fair.

He caught her hand and looked into
her eyes. There are so many messages
that can be given in that silent Ian
guage. For a blissful moment Elsie
forgot the other woman. Not until she
had left the bridge did she realize that

with him and in such close proximity
that she was unaccountably timid.
While her heart leaped in tumult, she
forced her lips to answer:
'You are right. You are always
right. I was selfish in thinking that
that I-might"-
There was pitiful quivering in the
corners of her mouth. Courtenay fell

Courtenay meanwhile was examin-
ing the advancing fotilla. His brain
was coming each detail of the AIaculof
array, but his heart was whispering
gladly:
"In another moment you would have
kissed her and told her you loved her.
You know you would, so don't deny it.
All, kissed her and held her to your
breastr'
So Suarez spoiled a pretty bit of ro-
nance by his ruf9ing agitation over
some bawl of savage frenzy, for Cour-
tenay of course would have laughed
away the girls protests that she was
usurping another woman's place.
II the confident demeanor of the pad
ding warriors in the canoes were des-
tined to be justified, the Kansas was
| in a parlous state. Her vast bluk and
sheer walls of steel did not daunt
them. They came on steadily against
the rapid current and spread out into
q crescent when within few hundred
yards of the ship. Then three men,
crouching in the bows of different ca
noes, produced rifles hitherto invisible
and began to shoot. The bullets rico
chetted across the ripples, and Cour-
tenay saw that the savages did not I'M
derstand the sighting appliances. They
were aiming point blank at the YES
sci in so far as they could be said to
aim at anything, and the low trajec-
tory caused the first straight shot to
rebound from the surface of the water
and strike plate amidships. The loud
clang of the metal was hailed by the
Alaculofs with shouts of delight
The long range firing was kept up
for several minutes, much to Courte-
nays relief, as Suarez was certain
that the Indians stock of cartridges
did not amount to more than. 400 st
the utmost. The canoes crept gradual
Ply nearer, and bullets began to strike
the ship frequently. One glanced of
davit and shattered couple Of win
dows In the chart house. This Incl
dent aroused even greater enthusiasm
than the first blow of the attack.
There was renewed activity among
the paddle wielders. Two canoes were
not fifty yards from the most souther-
ly floating mine. Courtenay com.
menced to haul in the slack Of one
among the half dozen thin cords. he
turned to tell Suarez to be ready fol
the duty which had been intrusted t.
him when his glance happened to trav
ell toward the mouth Of the bay.

that Courtenay was looking at her as

Their of them paid heed to the presence
of Suarez. For an instant they had

harsh voice of the Spanish miner fell
