UNITED FRONT IN DAKOTA
Republicans Campaigning Together
in State as One Man.
vEssEY WILL SECURE, MAJORITY
Vote. Absolutely Certain for Taft
Congressional Candidates of Re-
pubIicRns Confident of secur-
ing Safe Majority.

SIOUX FALLS, s. n. Oct. 2s.-(specal.)
election, the republicans of South Dakota
are confident of winning a pronounced vic
tory at the polls on Tuesday of next week.
There is absolutely no doubt that William
Howard Tafts plurality in the state will
be well above 1900 and It may reach as
high as 5000 Early in the campaign the
democrats were confident that Bryan would
carry South Dakota, by from 1000 to s,OOO
but as election has approached their hopes
have dwindled. until now It would be an
exceedingly bold democrat who would ven
ture to go upon record with the prediction
that Bryan will carry the state. They prac-
tically have conceded the state to Taft.
That Eben W. Martin and Charles H.
Burke the republican nominees for con-
gress, will be elected is the confident claim
of the republicans. The principal fight of
the democrats is centered on the governor
ship and they are making a desperate eff
fort to elect Andrew E. Lee, their nominee
for this position.
Mr.. Lee twice served as governor being
elected each time only by a scratch, but
this was during the hard times of the latter
part of the '9Os. Today conditions are
much different and Mr. Lees appeals do
not strike the responsive chord that they
did during his former campaigns when
voters were blndly casting about for re-
lief from deplorable conditions following the
last democratic national administration.
Great Prosperity In state.
Today South Dakota is enjoying such
prosperity as the State never knew before
|
happy and deposits in the state and ma
| tional banks are constantly piling up and
increasing. These prosperous conditions
leave little ground for the democrats tc
wage successful campaign and in wei
informed quarters 1t is fully believed that
at the election next Tuesday the repub.
lican congressional and state tickets viii
be elected from top to bottom.
The fight over the office of governor IL
an interesting one. Andrew e. Lee It is
admitted, Will secure some republican
! votes, chiefly those of German-Americans
who are opposed to Robert s, Vessey. the
! republican nominee, because he is a tenn
perate man. On the other hand Mr.. VesseS
may receive the votes OF some old line
democrats who are not in full sympathy
with Mr.. Lee, who is a comparatively re
cent recruit to the democratic ranks. Or
both occasions when elected governor be
fore Mr.. Lee was populist and had littlt
use for the average democrat.
Much depends, so far as the struggle foi
the governorship is concerned, on how tht
Scandinavian vote OF the state will be cast
At the June primaries the Scandinavian
vote was almost solidly cast for the insur
gent republican ticket as that wing OF tn
party more nearly represented the prin
/
other party in existence in the state. The!

Co operation In England.

Cooperative production on a large
scale has made comparatively little
progress in the United States. The
most ambitious attempts of the kind
We're made by the Patrons of Hus-
bandry and the Sovereigns of Industry,
but little is heard of the cooperative
movement in this country at present.
The very large attendance at the co
operative exhibition recently held in
London indicated great public interest
in the movement in England, and the
published data concerning cooperative
enterprises in that country show that
the business transacted by them has
become an important factor in the gen.
eral commercial activity.
In 1862 the sales of the British co
operative stores amounted to about

year Of the movement, the sales reach.

1t is said hat nearly a sixth Of the

their conservative methods led to thei1
displacement by "capitalistic indus

seems to show hat when articles are
produced to order and not for the gen.

may succeed, "but that these enter
prises fail when they are confronted
with the difficulty of adjusting the
supply to the variations of the market

School Secret Societies.

Public school authorities of the coun.
try are confronted with a serious con.
dition growing out of the activities OF
the secret societies in high schools
Parents are beginning to feel that the
fraternity idea has been o~verdevel.
oped and that the social aspect of
school life has assumed altogether toe
large a proportion in the eyes of the
children.
High school pupils may not be likened
in this respect to college students, who
in the great majority Of cases are sen
away from home to complete their ed.
ucation. The high school pupil is still
under the parental control, and the
parent is directly responsible. There
should be no secrets on the part of q
boy or a girl that cannot be shared
with the father or mother. The fra.
ternity in such circumstances tends tc
breed an ~unwholesome independence
which may lead far beyond the petty
trifing affairs Of the fraternity, the
secrets Of the meeting room, the sym.
bolism of the ritual into grave affairs
Of life.

In Italy that the Black Hand was or

instrument of blackmail, terrorism and

In Ireland was an honest and patriotic

TO DEMOCRATS.

1t is probable that a meeting of the
state central committee and prominent
democrats will be held at Grand Forks.
North Dakota, during the present week
or possibly week. This is based on
the current report that it is the intention
OF Senator Cashel, chairman of the com
mlttee to call such meeting. The meet
ing will not be to select candidates but
to unite the party and discuss general
subjects of interest which are likely to
arise during the coming campaign.
Ever since the organization of the state
we have been holding conventions nam.
Ing tickets and going through the
political forms, largely for the purpose
OF keeping up the party organization but
with continuous defeats scored to our
credit, this is not speaking of fusion
cempalgns) until the movements of the
democrats had become more mechanical
than hopeful. The results of last falls
campaign with its large measure of sue
cess has awakened quite another spirit
IN The breast of democrats and there is a
hopefulness, such as has never before
been manifest. They are willing and
anxious to take such steps as will result
in the upbuilding of their party that it
may become so strong a factor in the
State as to have influence and it's nomi-
nations given more meaning than hollow
honors. Our friends, the enemy, strug-
gEng as they are in factional fights more
oltter than party contests, are but ex-
perlenclng the inevitable results of a
party winch has become over powerful
and is breaking of its own weight into
r belllous factions. The thinking mem
ter of that party must feel that the up

strength where homogeny is necessary

that alone but the naming OF men for
position who are in every way fitted for
the positions to which they aspire be-
come necessary TO success at the polls.
will be generally beneficial to the party
n to the state. Heretofore the vote of
the state has been divided very much as
follows, one-third republican Scandi-

Inc Scandinavian vote has been the
solid bulwark behind which party lead

were obedient to the decisions of the
party conventions, which used them but
did not give their wishes proper con-
slderatlon. Last fall they broke loose
from this condition of quiescence and
voted very much as they chose and for
candidates rather than for party. They
are still off of the reservation and will
act their own sweet will in a manner
truly American and with feelings fully
aroused to the fact that it is better to
be a good citizen than to be a loyal party
man. Many, very many other republi
cans are filled with this i%ndependen,
spi IT and will not fall back into party
line until the party is thoroughly pur-
ged. In all of this the democrats find
