SMOKED OUT.

The stalwarts of South Dakota.
under the effective leadership OF
senator Kittredge, have won their
night for Secretary Taft In South
Daekota.
The demonstration made by the
stalWarts at Mitchell was the last
straw that broke the back OF the in
surgent camel. The showing Of Taft
strength there gave such alarm to the
Crawford crowd that they FASTENED
to the bandwagon at automobile
speed, and at the meeting Of the state
sentral committee held at Huron on
Friday night. the insurgent members
Of the COMMITTEES abandoned their
fight for La Toilette, and Joined the
st.lwart members In hearty en-
dorsement OF Taft for president. This
means that no fight will be made
against Taft in South Dakota. not
because the insurgents are for Taft,
but because they do not dare to nut
up fight against him.
For months these same men who
now say that Taft is an ideal man
to succeed Roosevelt have been de-
claring that he was an Limitation
candidate" that the state could
easily turn from Roosevelt to La Fol-
lette." that Roosevelt was unfriendly
t. Taft, that Taft was .'reactionary,"
that an ''uninstructed delegation"
should be sent to the Chicago con-
vention. that Taft had been running
paid advertisements in South Da-
kota newspapers. and that on account
OF Taft's close personal friendship for
Kittredge. q friendship which 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 not 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 responsible 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 Chi
cago a delegation composed OF the
real friends Of Taft. or a delegation
made up Of those who fought him
for months. and who only came to
his support when they realized the
stalwarts Of the state have been for
Taft for q year. It was last March,
that Senator Kittredge declared for
Taft, in the ante-roon OF the white
house. Every stalwart newspaper has
been fighting for Taft ever since.
Most OF the insurgent newspapers
have opposed him-some Of them
with bitterness IL was only few
days ago that the insurgent leaders
decided to abandon the hopeless fight
against Taft. Let the republican
voters have this in mind when they
enter the primaries n March, and
lick out delegates to the state con-
vention. II South Dakota Ii going to
send q Taft delegation to Chicago. it
should make very sure that the men
Who are sent are the real friends of
Judge Tat Let there be no s.imita-
lion Taft mem on the delegation.

RAILROAD Lawyer"
And 1t is charged that I favored
the sea level canal because I am a
railroad lawyer. (Laughter.) Ny
friends, never In my life have been
salaried attorney for the Milwau
kee road, for any railroad corpora
ton, or for any corporation of any
character or description whatever.
Never have I had, nor have / now,
a retainer from any railroad company
or other corporation existing, any
where. TIE only connection that
had with any railroad comapny or
with any corporation during the years
/ was actively engaged in the practice
of law was simply and solely as
lawyer and nothing else. If a rail-
road company during the time that
l was engaged in the practice of law
desired my services in a law suit,
performed that service just the same
as l would perform service for any
one of you, my friends from Mime
mana county. and / have tried law
suits for many of you; and when the
particular service was ended the bill
was sent in, it was paid, and that
ended the transaction absolutely and
completely l never was a lobbyist
for a railroad company or anybody
else. (Applause.) / never appeared
in that capacity at Pierre or else
where during the time that was en-
gagged is the practice Of law or at any
ether time in my career in the state.

day Of October following I would do

my oath of Office until the December
following. Monday morning following
the Saturday l have mentioned, was

Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad people
the same thing, and / kept my word
absolutely. (Cheers) and from the

The grand rally OF the stalwarts at
Mitchell was the biggest political event
which has been pulled Off since state
hood. Mr.. Crawford's local news
paper in its petty way said there
were only 300" stalwarts present.
The fact is that there were s07 dele
gates who presented credentials and
that there were at least 1900 stall
warts there from every part OF the
state At the night meeting when
Mr. Kittredge spoke every seat in the
large Gale treater was occupied. men
stood In the aisles and In the rear,
AND four hundred who sought adYnis-
siol were turned away. 1t was a
demonstration which no yellow jour
nal can belfttle.
It was q cold dav when the stall
warts gathered at Mitchell, but 1t will
be colder one when the Crawford
faction RECEIVERS from the shock that
was given them by this big and en-
thusiastic Taft-Kittredge rally.

ACCORDING TO PROGRAMME

POLITICS will 20 according to programme" this year in th Leg
isature. The me who are managing the party affairs. headed
by -ttng Governor Dickerson. do ct propose that the Democrat
lie Party will stumble along in a happy solucky way IS it has been fr
years in the habit of doing in this State.
The advantage of system and perfect organization was apparent IN
the recent campaign. When the fight opened tehre was a feehng OF
insecurity O every side. AS the campaign advanced the perfect nifty
of action and the splendid handling of the forces by the Executive
Committee of the Democratic Party inspired the rank and file with
confidence Of success.
The result has shown that the Democratic Party of Nevada is unit
ed and victorious and complete confidence and enthusiasm sways every
branch of the organization.
How to maintain thu standing and efficiency of the forces of Demo
cracy is the problem that low animates the leaders OF the party IN
the rank and file as well. With both Houses of the Legislature over
whelmingly Democratic the problem is simplicity itself.
All party and economic Measure should be disposed OF in the
caucus and on these measures the party should vote as n
The caucus will become q pot emit influence in deciding these ques-
lions and when once decided in the caucus chamber the question
should be considered settled.
In previous sessions with but a slim margin to work with, party
quarres and lack Of definite, intelligent leadership has enabled the
Republicans to disrupt and scatter the Democratic forces and by u
perior party and parliamentary tactics thu republicans have scored
many a legislative victory which was due to general assaninity OF
some Of the Democratic members Of the Legislature, There will be,
thank God. such a large majority in the Legislature at the coming ss-
sion that If a few Democrats desire to make fools of themselves and
give aid and comfort to the enemy they can be consigned to the poiti-
cal scrap heap in short order and eliminated from consideration with
out loss to the party or a danger of weakening the forces.
We have but to keep platform pledges. complete the unifcation of
the forces, enact wise and wholesome legislation and two years from
now the whole State ticket will be Democratic.
