PATRICK CALHOUN
MAY GIVE UP

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 49,
Judge Lawlor has set for January
s, 1909, the trial of Patrick Cal
houn on the Indictment charging
him with having offered a bride to
Supervisor F. p Nicholas to vote
for a trolley franchise for the
United Railroads, of which he is
president
1t has been stated on good au-
, thority that Patrick Calhoun, in
dicted head of the United Rail-
roads, has made an offer to the
prosecution, or intends doing so,
to turn states evidence and testify
against his boodling friends. The
proviso in Pats offer is that he
and all others indicted with him
on the trolley bribery deal shall be
given immunity.
The members of the prosecution
deny the rumor and say that Cal
houn could not make such a move
without exposing his alleged part
in the bringing about of the street
car strike of 1906. 1t has been stat
ed that Calhoun said to circle of
friends at a local club recently
that nothing would please him bet
ter than to see Ruef and Schmitz
wearing stripes for having extort-
ed money from him for the pass
age of the trolley ordinance.
Detective Burns denies that any
such offer has been received from
Calhoun, or that the prosecution is
even considering the giving of i'm
munity to the trolley magnate.

WOOD BRIDGE

Milwaukee and St. Paul is Hav-

Mitchell. S. D., June 19. The Chi

having its usual difficulty in crossing
to the Black Hills country by its
bridge being washed away at Cham.
berlaln. Portions of the bridge
have been going out for several days
until at the present time 600 feet OF
the structure has been swept down
stream by the high water and swift
current of the Missouri river. The
authorities at Chamberlain gave it as
their opinion that the bridge cannot
be restored in less than thirty days,
as it will have to wait until the
water lowers sufficiently. The COM
pany is transferring its passengers
by ferry to the other side, where a
train is in waiting to convey the pas
sengers to the Black Hills. 1t is re-
ported that it is the intention of the
Milwaukee company to start the
construction of a steel bridge over
the Missouri to take the place of the
pontoon affair that has done service
since the river was first crossed,
the idea being to bring the steel
bridge from Savanna, H., and in
stall new bridge at that place.

ROOSEvELT'S TRIBUTE
No Mar So Well Fitted to Be Pres
dent.

Washington, June 19.-Immed-
lately upon receiving news of the
: nomination of Taft, President Roose-
welt said: Il feel the country is in
deed to be congratulated upon the
nomination of Taft. | have known
him intimately many years and haye
have peculiar feeling for him be-
cause throughout that time he work
ed for the same object with the same
purposes and ideals. / do not believe
there could be found in all the coun-
try a man so we'll fitted to be presi-
dent. He is not only fearless,
absolutely disinterested and upright,
Abut he has the widest acquaintance
with the nations needs without and
within, and the broadest sympathies
with all of our citizens. He would
be as emphatically a president of Lin
coin, yet not Lincoln himself would
be freer from the least faint of dem
agogy, the least tendency to arouse
or appeal to class hatred of any kind.
He has a peculiar and intimate know
ledge of and sympathy with the needs
of all our people-of the farmer,
wage worker, business man, property
owner. No matter what mans
occupation or social position. no
matter what his creed, color or sec
tion of the country from which he
comes, if he is an honest, hardwork-
: ing man who tries to do his duty to-
ward his neighbor and towards his
country, he can rest assured he will
have in Taft the most fearless of
champions. Taft stands against
privilege and he stands pre-eminent-
ly for the broad principles of Amer
lean citizenship which lie at the
foundation of our national well
being"

After Battle Philosophy

The great political battle between
republican factions in South Dakota
is over, and strange as it may seem
none of the boys will get off the
earth. All are readjusting with an
easy grace that seemed impossible
only a few days ago:
The Sioux Falls Argus saysit won't
talk politics, but is unalterably ap-
posed to the new directoire gown.
John Hipple's Pierre Dakotan con-
fronts a $4,000 libel suit over Hans
Ustruds State Automobile, but says
the party house cleaning will be
beneficial-even if the other fellows
do the cleaning.
McLeod's Aberdeen News says
Crawford will be preferable to a
democrat because he will not dare to
oppose republican policies.
The Aberdeen American says: Now
let us have harmony because Mr.
Bryan supported Parker after try
ing to defeat his nomination.
John Longstaff's Huronite says to
the insurgents Don't do anything
till YOU come and see me.
Sioux Falls Press Philosophy
The newspaper that resorts to per-
sonal abuse Of others who are treat
ing it with generosity advertises
that either its cause is weak or it is
deficient in talent or both.
Huron World-The insurgents are
no longer insurgents. they are 1T.
Lieut-Gov. Shober thinks the only
surprising things about it is that
everybody couldn't see it from his
viewpoint.
