record Of the governor was investi-
gated. One OF The "reforms enacted
into law last winter was the act
requiring railroads to pay double
damages for unreasonable delay in
IL aking settlement for damages to
livestock or property destroyed by
fire.
Records have been gone into by
Judge Aikens l u the legislatures Of
the past and what is found there?
The legislative journal in the legis-
lature 10 which Governor Crawford
served at the same time that Sena-
tor Kittredge was a member of the
body. shows that Governor Crawford
VOTED AGAINST JUST SUCH A
BILL THAT AS INTENDED TO
AID THE FARMERS. and he was
then clothed with a legislative voting
lower. The same legislative record
shows that SENATOR KITTREDGE
vOTED.FOR THAT KIND OF a
MEASURE. Is there anv difference

The Cookbook.

Melted butter is a very good substi.
tute for olive oil in salad dressing.
Many prefer the butter to oil.
Turnips boiled in their jackets like
beets are much better than when pared.
Adding a little sugar to the water will
correct any bitterness.
Fish that is to be fried should be or
dered to be sent early. as it cooks much
better If previously rolled some time in
a clean cloth to insure perfect dryness.
Scoop out as many large lemons as
there are guests. scallop the edges and
fill the cups with French peas mixed
with a stiff m~ayonnaise. Arrange the
lemons on crisp lettuce leaves and
serve with cheese and crackers.
A woman who is past master in sand
wich making prefers fried ham to boil
ed for sandwiches. She cooks the ham
slowly in the frying pan. giving it just
enough browning to improve the flavor.
Then she reduces it by grinding to a
veritable powder and mixes it with
mayonnaise.

c. III. Dillon. Of Yankton, was so
unfortunate at one tine In the CAM
paign to make a statement that has
embarrassed the governor to a con-
siderable extent, when be said that
about all there was to the present
can paign was the difference In the
two men. That Is, merely a question
of whether Senator Kittredge should
remain In the senate or whether
Governor Crawford should be elected
in his place. While that is true to
a certain extent, yet there is a. vast
difference when 1t come to the men
The six years that Senator Kittredge
has been serving the people stands
out as a record that should and does
appeal to them as the work of an
honest, and capable gentleman
There is nothing In that record for
which his friends aud supporters
need apologize. Under those Cir
cumstances where. then, is the need
for making any change in Washing
ton? 1t is. not necessary displare
Mr.. Kittredge merely to crafty tie
ambition of Mr.. Crawford: he
has not shown to the people, Of this
state that he IS going co accomplish
any more tha" Mr.. Kittredge: he
mas not demonstrated that he has
the ability OF MI. K,ttre,lge. Con-
seqneutly the statement of Nj.
Dillnn. who is a strong Ctawfo,a
supporter. really is Il very pat state
ment why Mr.. Crawford should net
6e elected to the senate. Admittedly
on his own proposition Mr.. kiitr. 81 e
will carry into execuii n whist the
republican party in the state sIaiai
for, aud on that ground atone there
is no necessity tor his withdrawal
ON the senate.

It IS quite an easy matter for
Governor Crawford to stand on the
stuIp and cry u the charges
against Senator Kittredge as having
done this and tnut Ia the past
things that to the governor appear
bal and showing poor faith for the
dear people. Why just turn back to
tile governors record when he had
the voting power, and find where 1t
was recorded as against the people
and for the railroad corporations.
The governor asks this question
= did any Ii ever hear of Senator
isttlIedge or any OF his lienten4nts
advocate any OF the reforms that
we're enacted into law last winter
Here is where the dim and misty
past rises up to confront Auyernot

WILL BE GOOD NOW.

For months the sralwart press
has been harassinu State Treasurer
Cassill about his taking interest on
the state funds, which have amounted
to between 5000 and $50, 600 per
year. The state treasurer nor any
Of the insurgents have ever peeped
about the matter. Cassill and Ctaw-
ford both endeavored to defeat a bill

long as possible.
But what has happened. Driven
70 the corner In their guilt they are
now trying to make amends by saying
that HEREAFTER Mr.. Cass,il
would not take the interest on the
state funds. This admission is
brought out by the Sioux Falls Press,
which is the m%outhpiece Of the
grating standardization. The Press
says that HEREAFTER the insur.
gents are going to Try and be honest
when It admits that Mr.. Cassil has
been taking the interest without
warrant of law. For a refovm adj

Dakota want Of this character. Here
these fellows have been sticking their

selves to a nice graft. The reform

thin that 1t Is wonder they ever

There is quite a campaign on in
Sioux Falls to give Senator Kittredge
a majority of 1000 votes az the June
primary. Each ward OF the city
has a Kittredge club and every ward
is vieing with the other to get the
largest majority for the senator.
With a thousand majority in the
city of. Sioux Falls and a rousing big
one outside Of the city in Minnehaha
county will help to swell what the
rest of the state is going to do for

"ELIZAn

Stnrgis Press: Gov. Crawford's
speech at the opera house last We'd
nesday evening attracted a puodly
sized audience. Years age. one
Eliza, an %insurgent wife of Brigham
Young, wrote a book and dtliN cred
many lectures on the horrors OF Nor
Observation-Disclosures Exposed: the
Secrets of The Tabernacle Dlvulged."
Eliza had been there; she knew.
And now, a political Eliza has
arisen to diyulge hidden secrets of
the republican party Of South Da-
kota. This modern Eliza says he
knows because he, too, WIS There.
The speech was such a one as could
most properly Lave been delivered
by a democrat, but. coming as 1T did
from q self-confessed of being a
participant in the evils DESERT. d,
there seemed lacking the ring rf
honest sincerity. Eliza, the insur-
gent wife, found her life revolving
her moral nature was shocked; She
improved the first opportunity to
escape her th1alldom and tell the
word that Mormonism was hideous
and advising other women to not be
tempted into the mare. But Craw-
ford, the modern insu1gent Eliza,
tarrled for yeals.and years, happily
and contentedly, in the tabernacle OF
the republicans where things were
done which wrought injustice to
the people. Eliza said she was a
favorite wife; she got a full share,
at least, of the good things but her
high strung notion Of right and
wrong would not permit her to
remain. Does any reader Of these
lines believe that the Crawford Eliza
bolted the tabernacle because bis
moral nature was shocked? lie was
no mere drudge Of the republican
inner household he could rummage
the bureau drawers, help cut the
pies and now and then put his fingers
in the Jam jar: while undoubtedly
not the biggest toad in the rep,bli-
can puddle, he vas far removed flom
being a mere voting republican poly
wog. He admits that for yeas he
was the state wide attorney foy the
Northwestern railway, and, as
such trusted counsellor, was given
stacks Of that company's passes to
distribute among members OF the
legislature. Like Eliza, the insur-
gent spouse, he knew all the wrong
doing that was being hatchea and
carried out. but there was no Jolt
in the code of morality which then
governed him. 1t took him longer to
flop than it did Eliza, hut he finally
did so. The conversion came when
be conceived the possibility Of be-
coming governor, and now thai lie
aspires to become United States
senator, he feels more acutely the
gladsomeness that comes from tread
ing the late found path of right
Idoing. The speech was a severe de-
nunciation Of republican mismanaQe-
ment in the state, showing as it did
the AFFECT serv1lity of the uarty
leaders on railway and public service
corporations in by gone years.

Mr.. Fremont. in a sketch Of her ia

ing story Of the French bishop at st.
Louis at the time of the purchase Of
Louisiana. She says:
1t vas u point of honor among the
older French not to learn English, but
the bishop decided that it would be
better to acquire it. especially for use

into the familiar practice Of the Ian
guage he secluded himself for awhile
with the family of an American farm

Arguments have been a scarce
article In the insurgenL camp during
the campaign, and along toward the
close the insurgents are resortine
to bets of a Thousand dollars that
Crawford will carry the June prim-
aries. That Is the last resort of a
waning faction, and 1t is used merely
to strengthen the bunch until the
last ditch is reached, where it will
be precipitated headlong into
political oblivion. A bet of a thous-
and dollars does not signify any
particular amount Of strength for
Crawford, and 1T is the idea of a
gambler to take a chance In trying
to makeia thousand dollars and not
work for it. This bet comes from
the reform party which Is pre-
sumed. to be SO law abiding, when
the laws Of the state provide a
penalty for betting on an election
Still this Is In harmony with the
bunch, for when the opportunity
came to Use the primary law one of
