SMOKED OUT.

The stalwarts of South Dakota,
under tie effective leadership OF
Senator Kittredge, have won their
fight for Secretary Taft in South
Dakota.
The demonstration made by the
stalwarts at Mitchell was the last
straw that broke the back of the
insurgent camel. The showing of
Taft strength there gave such alarm
to the Crawford crowd that they
FASTENED to the bandwagon at auto
mobile speed, and at the meeting of
the state central committee held at
Huron on Friday night, the insurg-
ent members of the committee
abandoned their fight for LaFollette
and joined the stalwart members in
a hearty endorsement of Taft for
president. This means that
no fight viii be made against Taft in
South Dakota, not because the
insurgents are for Taft, but because
they do not dare to put up a
fight against him.
For months these same men who
now say that Taft is an ideal man
to succeed Roosevelt have been
declaring that he was an limitation
candidates." that the state could
easily turn from Roosevelt to La
Toilette" that Roosevelt was
unfriendly to Taft, that Taft was
a ''reactionery," that an "unin-
structed delegation" should be sent
TO the Chicago convention, that Taft
had been running paid advertise
ments" in South Dakota news
papers, and that on account Of Taft's
close personal friendship for Kilt
redge, friendship that began thirty
years ago, and has endured ever
since, the big secretary of war
should be beaten.
But that is all over now. The
badly ratified insurgents simply do
do net dare to face the fight against
Taft. They have come into camp
and from now on will no doubt
claim to be the ones who are really
friendly TO Taft,and who are respon-
sible for the delivery Of the vote Of
South Dakota to him.
The question now before the
voters is as to whether we shall send
to Chicago a delegation composed OF
the real friends Of Taft, or dele
cation made up Of those who fought
him for months, and who only came
70 his support when they realized
The Sight against him was hopeless.
The stalwarts Of the state have been
for Taft for . year. II was last
March, that Senator Kittrsdgs
declared for Taft, in the ante room

Washington. Feb. 1.-The excite.
ment aroused by the presidents spe-
cial message to congress will be dupli-
Gated within few days by the publ
cation OF letter from Mr.. Roosevelt
to William Dudley Foulks Of Rich
mond. Ind. on the subject Of nomina-
tons sent to the senate. There have
bssn charges that the president has
used his power to appoint to boost the
political future OF Secretary Taft.
Foulke had been chairman Of the
civil service commission. He read
the charges made by senator's and
came on from Indiana to Investigate.
He saw the president and the secre-
tary Of war and went home to await q
letter that he had reason to believe
would arrive by an early mail.

insurgents reach out for the prohibi
ton vote they will not advertise the
records of Congressman Hall and

ART LEAGUE HEARS
TEN LOVE STORIES
Mrs. Edwin Oscar Burns Wins

The members Of the Outdoor Art

art Of Miss Amelia Bingham and Clyde

meaning; one who rises. mounts or

their little bungalow on Telegraph
HILL They triced up their handsome
skirts. tucked their neatly packed
lunch boxes under their arms, put their
gloves in their pockets and climbed.
Some boldly essayed fences, other
leapeG appalling gallies, still others
wriggled their way through the ad

luncheon was informal coffee and con-

After luncheon however, the piece

The words were: 'TntensiveS farm

The correct meanings were enforced,
and the hiiarity produced by the really
painful efforts Of the cltbwomen to
stick at once TO their words and their
text was irresistible.

corruption was hideous, loathsome and
appalling.
Bells most intimate political as
sociates inspired fear and distrust.
1T had been charged. without an
swer, that John S. Parry, Scbmitz's hre
commissioner and Bells close COM
panion. had telegraphed him at Mo-
desto forbidding him in his speeches
denouncing Schmitz and Ruef.
Thomas ]. Geary, at Bells request,
was virtually in charge Of the state
committee and the campaign, as Tim
othy Spellacy. the nominal chairman,
was continually absent. Prior to Bells
official appearance in San Francisco,
Geary came here in answer to tele-
gram from me, and in conference
with Frank H. Gould and others it was
decided that morals, as well as political
expediency. demanded that Bell must.
on reaching San Francisco, so declare
himself on corruption and corruption-
lists that thereafter no honest man
could have room for doubt
The San Francisco call., 1908-08-30
STATEMENT WAS SUBMITTED

"a statement was typewritten, en-
bodying our ideas of what the situation
demanded, and Mr.. Geary took it to
Sacramento for the purpose of submit
ting it to Charles McClatchy of the
Sacramento Bee and soliciting his in
fluence with Bell.
when Geary returned he stated that
Mr.. McClatchy approved the proposed
statement and joined him in urging
Bell, who was then in Sacramento, to
adopt it or one of similar purport- That
he (Geary) was not sure that Bell
would make such speech, but that he
had nged with him to meet James
d. Phelan and myself at a restaurant
on the evening of his arrival in San
Francisco, and before going on the
platform, for further conference.
THAT evening Mr. Phelan. Mr.. Geary
and myself waited, but Bell did not
come. Then Geary and myself went to
Walton's pavilion and heard Bells
speech. To say that we were disap-
pointed, shocked and discouraged would
not express the situation.

full, ringing declaration on. graft and

thing and nothing at the same time was
an exhibition of cowardice and evasion
that produced only disgust. 1t dealt

BELLS WORDS QUOTED

'eThe statement of Bells attitude or
the graft issue in the last campaign car
best be accepted from his own words
written in letter June 20, 1905, in an
swer to some inquiries made of him:
"sYou have evidently forgotten thai
no charges had been preferred agalns
either Ruef or Schmitz prior to the
election in November, 1906, and that the
graft prosecution in San Francisco a
that time had not reached point
where it could be made state issue
.This. however, is not time for res
urrecting dead issues.
.I will do with all my might fol
Bryan and his cause without going tC
the state convention.
II hope that the convention will sub
merge old animosities and factional dis
putes and by united action inspire en-
thusiasm for the cause that command:
