of 1901, 1908, 1905, and 1867. He
vas speaker of the house in 1903 and
1905. His high standing in the COM
munity is thus attested by his con-
tinuance in the office for Gig It. sue
cessive years.
Mr.. Browne is a native of Michigan
and of New England ancestry. He was
educated it Yenyon college, in Ohio,
and then removed to Kansas, where
he resided up to the time that he be-
came a resident of South Dakota.
The striking characteristics OF the
man are uprightness, rigid adherence
to the principles Of the Golden Rule,
and devotion to duty. He is a devo,L
member OF the Episcopal church. In
civic virtues no man stands higher in
the estimation of his fellowmen than
does MIR. Srowne, who, during a per-
iod of nearly twenty years yesidence
in Aberdeen, has endeared himself to
the people of the community because
of his manly worth. No political strife
has ever been so bitter as to cause
those who, through party utilization,
have opposed his candidacy, to utter
a syllable in criticism of his private
life or to question his sincerity in
either political or business affairs.
He will make a clean, conservative,
square deal governor, whose election
would reflect credit upon the young
state Of South Dakota, destined, as it
is, to occupy a high place in the fu-
ture council OF the nation.

George G. johnson, the stalwart
candidate for the Office of state treas
urer, is a native of Lincoln county
and is about thirty-three years of age.
His parents are among the pioneers
OF this section of tue state, haviass
come to this country direct from
Norway about thirty-five years ago,
and established their home on the
broad prairiesE of South Dakota. Mr..
J%ohnson's father, up to the time of
his death. about two years since, was
a prominent factor in the upbuilding
OF the community in which he lived.
The subject of this brief sketch
grew to manhood in the county of
his nativity. He vas educated in the
public schools and at Augustana col
lege at Canton. Upon attaining his
majority he became deputy register of
deeds and served in that capacity for
six years. In 1904 he was elected
to the office wherein he had served

and in 1906 he was reelected by an
overwhelming vote, Notwithstanding
his opponent wa q man of recogniz-
ed ability and strength.
Mr.. johnson is making his candi-
dacy for the state treasurer upon a
principle that is clearly defined. Be-
the Roosevelt administration, and a
warm advocate of the nomination Of
William H. Taft as the man most
likely to carry out those policies. he
naturally stands committed to the
principle that a public officer should
not reap profit from having public
funds in his possession, even though
he may evade the constitutional pro-
vision inhibiting the acceptance of
such profit by becoming q nominal
stakeholder and salaried officer OF a
banking institution which handles
While Nj. johnson favors the en-.
actment of q state law providing
for state repositories and the placing
OF the interest derived from public
moneys In the treasury for the bene-
fit of the people, he pledges himself
to account to the state for every cent
received through this channel. even
though no law be passed specifically
covering the question.
Mr.. johnson isaa product of South
Dakota. He was born here, and was
educated here, and represents the
vigorous young manhood Of the state
and Is IN accredited type Of those
sturdy NOrsemen who have left their
indelibfe Impress uponthe history OF
the world and who are important fac
tors In sustaining the moral and In
~tellectual tone Of the ountry az their
adoption here In America.
Above and beyond all. he stands
for the square deal In administrative
affairs. His platform ought to be
endorsed by the people Of he state.
and wesbelieve it will be, BY nominal.

which he Aspires.

Among his associates he is familiar
ly known as "Gene"-"Gene Warner

people in his county than any other
man
Mr.. Warner is one of the pioneers
OF Hamlin county, and, like most new
corners, he has experienced the ups
and downs of pioneer life. But through
it all he has shown indomitable pluck,
supported by mental ability, and he
has literally carved" his way to sue
cess.

of a bigger and a better newspaper
il his locality, he became the owner
and editor of the New Era at Hazel,
and lately he has established a news
paper at n of the new towns on
the South Dakota Central, building
from Sioux Falls north to WATERFOWL.

delegate to the national republican
convention which nominated Roose-
yelt, and he has for years beenastead-
fast champion of the principles which
have become the settled policies Of
the present national administration.
Gene" Warner will conduct the
business connected with the auditors
office with signal ability and will be a
credit. not only to the young. repub-
lican element Of the party, but to the
state as a whole, for not only is he
equipped for the larger affairs of bus
mess, but he is. especially systematic
in all the smaller details that combine
to make business a success.
