speechmaking in one of the big
cities in our State, certain
prominent citizen had invited
him to 60 home with him after
the meeting, and it wasn't until
after they reached the house
about midnight that the man
recollected that another guest,
the State Treasurer, was also
spending the night there. How
ever, he said, it would be all
right, as there were twin beds in
the spare room. But when Amos
had undressed he discovered that
only one bed had been made up,
and the State Treasurer was
tucked up and audibly slumber-
ing in that. The hostess had
evidently been house cleaning,
and all that was on the extra bed
was some freshly done up lace
curtains, and under this rather
damp and very f1imsy covering
Amos was obliged to crouch for
the rest of the night.

for excess of speed during or
binary business hours.
Now this day in the Senate
was so different. The little old
man who had the floor was
talking along i'll monotone,-
he seemed to be giving statistics
to prove that the President had
taken too big pieces out of his
State for forestry reserves; and
every other Senator who hap
pened to be at his desk seemed
to have another sum of his own
on which he was silently fgur-
ing. There was one Senator
who would occasionally look up
at the speaker with a jerk of
his head, and as he wore his hair
in a pompadour, as long as
prairie grass, it looked as if his
hair rose on end in astonishment.
Otherwise things were so unex-
citing that you could almost
hear the flies buzz.
When Senator Todd joined US
in the Vice Presidents seat, he
brought a man with him who
really did not look as if he had
judgment enough to keep the
cows out of the garden, and when
he introduced him as the famous
Senator Pitching, l instinctively
reached out for a hymn book

floor saw enormous sinking into his seat
and tossing great black fetlock out of his eyes

suddenly Senator Pitching rose. He drew large

Our neighbor, Bronson, Of the
World, has often asked the voters OF
Day county, ii they favored the
primary and if they did assured
them that Crawford was the primary.
We want to ask Brother Bronson to
tell the recent history of the primary
law in Mcpherson and FAUX coun-
ties at the hands of the Crawford
ties. But for fear his pages will be
too crowded with other matter we
will give it to our readers. The new
primary law provides that when two
thirds of the county central commit
tee OF any county shall decide that
for any reason the primaries are un-
necessary they may appoint the del
egates to a state convention. How
did the Crawford people who are in
the majority on the county central
committee in Mcpherson county con-
strue the law They published a
notice calling for meeting
OF the forty-six members of the CON-
mittee. There were nineteen Of
them assembled in answer to the call.
Three Of the nineteen were stalwarts
and objected to the selection of the
delegates to the state convention,
especially before call had been
made for the convention or the place
and date fixed. But the other six
teen had their instructions from
headquarters at Pierre and proceeded
over all protests and in face of the
fact there was just one over one third
Of the committee present and voting,

ton which selects delegates to the

national republican convention. That
is the Crawford love of the primary.
This is the way Crawford would have
the people express themselves upon
the selection of president. The
game was made to work to the end
in Mcpherson county and the stall
warts will now apply to the courts
for permission to use the primary
system, in Mcpherson county. The
same call was issued in Faux county
and the committee was got together
with the same intent. But in Faux
county Crawford was indeed served
with most bitter pill for, 10 and
behold, when vote was taken to
proceed to select the delegates the
Crawfordites did not have majority
of the committee although they were
elected on the Crawford ticket last
year. Crawford could not ignore
the primaries in Faux county. No'
dear reader, the primary law was
opposed by many republicans
because they believed it was a use
less waste of the public money. 1t
was adopted by the people and made
a law by the last legislature and now
the Crawford people are the only
ones who would deny it the right of
trial. The stalwarts Of Brown, MAJ
shall, Lawrence, Day, Hughes, in
fact in every county where the stall
warts are in absolute control of the
machinery and could do as they
desired, the call has gone forth for a
primary. Give the voter chance
to express himself. Crawford and
the members of the Crawford state
! looting machine are the only ones
who fear the primaries and they are
the only ones who have reason.
They saw they could not control the
voters of Mcpherson county, so the
committee attempted to take it away
from the voters. They saw they had
lost the voters of Faux county and
when they attempted the same meas
ures in Faux as in Mel herson
county, discovered they had also lost
the county central committee. Craw.

The Webster World sets upa roar
about the circulation Of the speech
of Congressman Mann, of Illinois,
upon the investigation of land frauds
in the western states in which he
denominates the Crawford case as a
striking illustration of the miscar-
riage of justice through political
influence. We agree with the
World that the matter has become
little stale, but we must disagree
when it says the charges were dis
missed In the report of Chief of
Field Division Nj. ID. McEniry to the
Commissioner of Land Office, he said
at is simply another case of men in
high places escaping punishment for
their misdeeds by reason of their
position and influence" On June
9Th, the Secretary of the Interior
received q final report from the
Attorney General in which he said;
these cases appeared to present
fragrant violations of the public land
laws, and the failure of the govern
ment to secure indictments can only
be explained by the unusual political
situation in South Dakota and the
strong partisan feeling resulting
therefrom. All of the cases, with
two exceptions, will have been barred
by the statute of limitations by the
LIST of the coming month. One Of
the remaining two will be barred in
August and the other in November
of the present year. In view, how
ever, of the governments double
failure to indict, Notwithstanding the
strong showing made and the prob
ability of failure in an attempt to
convict even should an indictment
be secured, this department is of the
opinion that the governments inter
ests will be best served by pursuing
the matter no farther. / return the
papers in the said cases herewith. y

no further.

could have submitted table with
only the townships on the main line
and this would have shown still
greater difference.
He then takes fall out of the
local assessors by saying that the
state authorities did not have any
thing 10 do with the increase in farm
lands etc. in Day county. Ask your
assessor, Mr.. Taxpayers, what kind
of schedule he used in assessing
his township and where that schedule
came from. Willie Waddel knows
that the state board at it's March
meeting ordered an increase in
assessment and the county auditors
transmitted these orders to the
assessors. Such a misstatment of the
facts 10y Willie Waddel should be
enough to make his article valueless.
To sum his article up it simply
admits that Longfellow told the
truth but that it was "diabolical'
act to tell it.
The writer has another bunch of
figures in this issue which Willie
Waddel can study aud try to get
some consolation out of.
