For Constables,

For some time past it has been
considered almost rank treason to
utter one word against the primary
law proposition, but now that the
people are having practical appli-
cation Of the law they are beginning
to think that it is measure not
unmixed with evil. There is now a
local instance OF the workings OF
this law before the people of this
county in the manner OF naming the
various tickets to be presented to
the voters at the June primaries.
The insurgent, democratic and pro-
hibition tickets have been named by
a close corporation in each instance,
while the stalwart republicans have
endorsed ticket on broader scale
by calling in representatives from
every precinct in the county to par
ticipate. The same holds good
with the naming of the state tickets
which were selected by the leaders
of the several parties. All this is
made necessary by the red tape with
which the new law is surrounded,
but where do the people come inG
In theory they we're to be the sole
arbiters as to whom should hold
office, but now they have to make a
selection from lists submitted by the
leaders Of the different political
parties. Naturally dissatisfaction
will arise and it is safe to predict
that one of the first bills introduced
in the next Legislature viii be for
the repeal, or sweeping amendment,
of the present primary law. The
special correspondent Of the Min
neapolis Journal voices his ,observa-
tions on the workings Of the law in
South Dakota as follows: S"The
new South Dakota primary law is
not making a hit among all classes
Of voters. Twenty-four counties
dispensed with Il in March to save
trouble and expense. Many citizens

The county auditors Office was
turned into political headquarters
Saturday night with the curtains
carefully drawn and all the political
papers on file were turned over to
the mercy of the bunch of insurgents
there assembled. After due inspec-
ton of all the stalwart petitions, a
list OF the signers of same obtained,
czders were given the auditor as to
how the ballot must be drawn up to
the disadvantage in every case of
the stalwart republicans. This is
what they call clean politics.

believe it has multiplied the oppor.
tunities for manipulation and ring
rule. Under the old plan the can
didate for state Office went INTO
the caucuses and the county con
yentions in the contest for delegates
to the state convention. The people
had several opportunities to accept
or reject him. The caucuses were
usually we'll attended aud every pre-.
cinct sent delegates to the county
conventions, Representation TO the
state convention had been increased
until ! 800 or more delegates Assem-
bled to nominate a state ticket.
Those who dislike the primary sys,
ten say Il is farce and a fraud 50
far as the selection of state candi
dates are concerned. Any man is,
OF course, at perfect liberty to
announce bis candidacy aud circu-
late his petition In theory this is
all very nice, but ia actual practice
there seems to be very little or
nothing to it, No man, unless he is
a sort Of freak politician, goes
after a state Office until he has first
sounded the local nd state leaders
and has assured himself of some
support. The net results OF the
primary TO date show that the peo-
pie have less to say about the choice
Of candidates than they had under the
old caucus and convention system.
Glass for congress, Vessey for gov.
ernor, Policy for secretary Of state
and Robinson for railway commits
sioner were put upon the ticket by
a coterie Of politicians in conference
at Huron. The rank and file Of the
dear people had nothing at all to do
with making these selections. 1t
was felt necessary to place the nom
ination for secretary in the Black
Hills Did the people make the
choice? Not by any means Lieu
tenant Governor Shober was sent to
the Hills as an emissary of the lead
ers to induce Grimshaw, Policy or
someone else to take the Black Hills
niche on the ticket. Under the new
system someone must do this work.
The peoples only say SO win come
at the June primaries when they are
permitted to choose between two
machine made tickets la exchange
for this privilege they have surren-
dered the caucus, the county conven-
tion and the state convention, Many
South Dakotans viii tell you that
the primary hasn't made good, and
never will

On Sunday, May 10th, the Polish
residents of the northeastern part OF
this county held a celebration in
honor of the 1l7th, anniversary of
the constitution granted the Polish
people, before the division of Poland
and at the same time to formulate a
protest against the new laws made
by the German government against
the Poles: First, the exclusion of
Polish language from the schools
and public meetings; second, the
compulsory sale of the est ates CT
Poles. Father Wajtowicz, pastor of
st. Joseph's church, in charge of
the ceremonies, extended person al
invitation to David Williams to
address the gathering. This day is
as sacred to patriotic Poles as is
May 18th to patriotic Norwegians
or July 4th to patriotic Americans
and to introduce political speeches
on such occasions would be most
inappropriate and in poor taste.
Hence none OF the addresses on Sum-
day dwelt upon politics in the slight
est, out we're in the line of Polish
history, patriotism, etc. But the
invitation to Mr.. Williams aroused
the ire of the insurgents and they
Immediately got busy with SANDER

Crawford is again descending to
virulence and abuse in his speeches,
SO it is fair to presume that things
are not breaking just right for the
hero Of the blistered tongue.
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1908-05-14

o,s tongues Charles E. Hyde was
the chief offender in this respect ior
on Sunday morning, he commenced
telling every one who would listen
to him that David Williams, Frank
Sears and Senator Kittredge were
out in Grenville talking politics TO
the Poles. Taking the cue from
HYDE. the insurgents promptly took
steps to circulate this story through
out the county. Now there could
have been no more exception taken
TO Senator Kittredge attending
meeting of this nature than TO
Crawford attending the meeting IN
Lynn on May 18th, but as matter
of fact Senator Kittredge did not
attend, was not in Webster at all,
but remained in Andover all day
Sunday, passing through Webster
on the east bound train Monday
morning. Mr.. Sears was not
invited to speak and did not speak
at the meeting. Ga Monday, Hyde
made his way to Andover aud
re commenced his lying tale in the
hotel office declaring that he had
seen the Senator start for Granville.
He was repeating this at the break
fast table when Senator Klttredge
walked ia and sat at the same table.
This would naturally silence an
ordinary liar but upon the departure
of Mr.. Kittredge from Andover,
Hyde again asserted the story to his
insurgent friends with orders to
keep it in circulation, hoping there
by to damage the cause of the stall.
warts, Nothing could better illus
trate the methods pursued by the
insurgents in the present campaign.
Taking their cue from Crawford's
statement that deceptive methods
are the only ones whereby the oppo-
sition can be defeated" HYDE and
his like embrace every opportunity
to practice deceit defending to even
common, every day lies. In the
face of such work, it is difficult to
keep within the bounds Of decency
when treating of the methods of
Hyde aud his associates in their
endeayors to carry Day county for
Crawford, but the people are grad
ually learning the receptions
attempted to be practiced upon
them by this group of character
assassins and will repudiate them at
the primaries in June, There is
much truth in the old saving that a
lie will travel leagues while truth
is getting on it's boots, but once
overtaken the lie and liar meet a
deserved fate. 1t would be nothing
more than justice to Hyde if this
paper would resort to the methods
of the vile sheet which he delights
in peddling and tell the truth con-
corning his actions and desires on
the trip to Lennon this spring for
it could then be seen that his pro-
fessions of temperance and morality
are intended only for home con-
sumption, but we will refrain and
leave the telling of this trip to any
OF the participants in the trip who
feel inclined to tell it. AT any rate,
Hyde has been proven in this case
a common every day liar worthy OF
the position he occupies in the
councils of the insurgents.

In one of his announcements OF
his candidacy for the office Of county
auditor, G. E. Blegen gives a num-
her of reasons why he should receive
the nomination, and among which is
one wherein he states that he was
big enough to repudiate the gang
that elected him when ordered to
appoint deputy whom he did not
consider big enough or honest
enough to fill the position In Jan
uary 1907 Blegen came to Webster
and solicited aid in the selection of
a deputy auditor. His statement
was that he wanted man who
would be willing to work without
putting his feet on the desk, with a
pipe in his mouth, and who would
civilly answer all questions. Above
