President Marvin Hughitt OF the Chi

errand was to ascertain what likelihood
there is of the long-projected extern
sion of the Northwestern from Sioux
City to Centerville being put through
in the immediate future. The follow
ing, from the Journal, was what Mr..
Hughitt had to say on the subject:
Mr.. Hughitt received the com
mitlee very pleasantly. He reminded
it of the fact that the surveys for this
line had been completed for many
years. He said this project was no
new thing. This line will be built some
day, he said; in fact, it will be built as
soon as general construction work
should be resumed. He said this was
no time to talk about new railroad
building. However, Mr. Hughitt said
he was glad to know that Sioux City
was as much interested in this matter
as the Northwestern was"

AS You Like It"AG Great
Success
Best Amateur Performance Ever
Given In Elk Point

The presentation of Shakespeare .
.As You Like II, given by the senior
clas. of the Elk Point high school last
night, was the most creditable anu sue
cessful amateur performance ever CIV
en- in this city. We say this adviseois
and believe no one in attendnce VIII DC
disposed to dispute it. For a nlgn
school class to undertake so preten-
tious play as this is unusual and lor
our part we are willing to confess that
we looked forward to the rendition OF
the play with considerable forboding.
The result, however, was pleasing ana
commendable and needs no apologies
from anyone.
We have not space this week for an
extensive and elaborate review OF the
play. The costumes were appropriate
and characters well distributed to the
talent or fitness of the individual mem
bers of the class. Chester McGrath as
Touchstone and Nellie Nichols as Aud
ry were popular characters, the for-
mer putting up some professional act
ing. Ida Authier took the difficult
and important part of Rosalind and
carried it with vivacity and strength.
Gertrude Merrigan as Jaques, Alfred
Munson as Orlando and Harry Walters
as LIE Beau deserve especial credit
The class showed the benefits OF
careful drill and competent suggestlons
as to their lines and acting. For this
they are largely indebted to Mrs,
Charlotte Kirk Carmody of Brooklyn,
N. Y, who, during her visit here the
past ten days, has given them inteili-
gent and professional training. Prof.
Cummings and Miss Bartholomew nave
been incessant in their labors, In
which they have had the hearty land
enthusiastic cooperation OF the mem
bers of the class.

Dear Sir:

no intention OF misleading anyone.
But surely there are no republican
voters in this county who think that
this county can nominate a candidate
for United State senator They certain
ly know that it requires the republican
votes of the state to do that and | have
never hesitated when asked what
| would do, to say 1 would support
If am elected. the nominee of the
party. On al questions coming before
the legislature, except the election o
United States SENATOR, l believe ths
voters of the county have a right t.
expect their wishes to govern thei
members actions. The question o
who will be United States senator
will no doubt be settled June 9th ant

people have a chance to decide VIII
they want.

GOV. CRAWFORD HAS ANOTHER GUESS
COMING

Last Friday night Gov. Crawford
invaded Senator Kittredge's home
town, contrary to the courtesy usually
observed between rival candidates.
He was given a respectful if not en-
thusiastic hearing. In the course of
his remarks he charged that the
Northwestern railroad was not run
ing special trains to his rallies, while
the superintendent ,at the time Senator
Kittredge spoke in Huron, issued orders
to trainmen to handle only perishable
freight on that day, to rush all trains
into Huron and to make it a point to
attend Senator Kittredge's meeting.
Gov. Crawford had previously made
similar charges regarding discrimina-
tion in favor of Senator Kittredge in
their campaign west of the Missouri
river.
A representative of the Huronite
called on Superintendent Moulton of
the Chicago & Northwestern railway
at Huron anu Ou U0luS dShCu dS w VIC
truthfulness OF these charges Mr.
Moulton said:
mo such orders were ever issued
by myself or any one else. The state
ments are wholly false in every par.
ticular. Since coming 10 Huron
have taken no part in politics. Have
never discussed the senatorial question
with any one. Have never asked, urged
or advised Northwestern employee
to vote for Mr.. Kittredge, or to attene
his meetings, here or elsewhere. Yol
may deny for me emphatically the
statement made by Mr.. Crawford.
is false in every particular. There i
no foundation for his making such
statement, not in the least. / have n'
desire to be dragged into this fgh
aud do not intend to be, but | do no
propose to be misrepresented in thi
manner even by the governor of Soutl
