Manager Isbell wrote Barney Kelley
a letter today. in which he used prac-
tically the same argument that he sent
to Clyde Jarnigan to get him to report
in March with the rest of the bunch.
It will be harder to get Kelley to
come, possibly, because he wants to
graduate from Yale in June, but "Izzy"
insists that he can not use him unless
he is ready to start the season with
the club. Frank insists that the young
fellow may be able to make some kind
of arrangeme whereby he can grad
uate and still be on hand when the
season opens. He is willing to let him
get into condition at Yale. as last
resort, just so he shows UP here by
April 20. If he doesn't do that. the
local manager has no alternative ex-
cent to report him to Secretary Far
reII of the National association. and
that would mean his suspension and
putting him in the same box that
Johnny King now occupies Not TO
report him would lay the Wichita club
open to danger of losing his services
entirely.

day-a Wichita man by the name of

the state. If he shows the goods he

WILL RUSH WORK ON SPUR
Short Line of Milwaukee from Mo-
bridge to Belle Fourche Now
Being Built.

Mobridge News: Contracts have
been let for grading an extension of
the Chicago, Milwaukee g. Puget
Sound Railway company's Cheyenne
river branch from it's present western
terminus to Belle Fourche in the
Black Hills. Under clauses in the
contract work is to be begun as soon
as the frost is out of the ground and
is to be completed as soon as it is pos
sible to do so.
The new grade will be something
over 100 miles in length, considerably
longer than the present Cheyenne
river branch.
The actual laying of steel on the
new branches out of Mobridge through
the reservation country was begun
on Saturday of last week, but only
three lengths of steel were laid that
day. The heavy snow has made track
laying difficult and the men had TO
shovel considerable snow before tie
could be laid. The work was begun
in acut near the Missouri river bridge
and here the snow was drifted ten feet
deep. The railroad company had
hoped to have the Grand river bridged
before spring so that further work
could be rushed, but the inclement
weather which has prevailed for some
time has handicapped the condone on
the bridge. The bridge across the
Grand will be of steel construction.

A DISPATCH from Woonsocket under
date of Feb. 18th, says: County SUI
perintendent c. H. Lugg of Hutchin-
son has been made to feel the pressure
of the old Kittredge machine, which
by one turn of the screws choked off
his candidacy for state superintendent.
Mr.. Lugg was one of the first men an
nounced for state Office to go before
the next primaries. Recently Mitchell
put forth acandidate for state auditor
in the person of III. B. Anderson and
such pressure was brought to bear
that Anderson was secretly endorsed
by the Huron stalwart conference,
and then Kittredge's hand appeared
to prevent a punching of candidates,
The Black Hills union and western stock review. [volume] (Rapid City, S.D.) 1904-19??, 1910-02-25

a move considered as sharp politics
under the old convention system, but
which Is discouraged under the oper-
alton Of the primary. TO distribute
the candidates the stalwarts brought
out A. Fl. Seymour of kingsbury
county and he is now In the field.
While Mr.. Lugg is made to feel that
his candidacy is inadvisable and mex
pedient under the operation of the
kittredge machine. Some of Mr..
Lugg's friends over the state are dis
posed to resent this interference by
the Kittredgeites who encouraged
Mr.. Lugg up to certain point and
then turned to him cold shoulder"
And, too, the Kittredge faction en-
dorsed the primary as the only true
means of securing candidates for Of
flee. The action confirms the state
ment in this paper that candidates
were secretly picked, chosen and en-
dorsed at the Huron meeting.

WITH ALL due respect for efforts
being honestly put forward to secure
the appropriation, it looks nightly
as though our postoftice appropriation
was on sliding scale. 1t was not
so long ago that the required amount
was $3.50, 900, while today our vacillat-
ing congressman says 100000 is
enough. Another $50, 900 clipped from
the amount and we will have very
poor look in. Martin was made to
recognize the desires of the city dur
ing the Huron meeting when he was
called on the carpet by his friends
and made to promise something def
mite. Judged purely by precedent the
proposed 100000. will give us a very
modest structure, not in keeping with
the city's requirements. An appro-
priation Of sl50,OoO can as easily be
secured as $50. 900 of 800. 900.

HoMEsTEADERs who have their time
extended for going upon the land filed
on will do we'll to remember that the
amendment to the law is due to the
interest taken by influential citizens
of this city. Numerous letters were
presented to the proper authorities
setting forth the conditions during
the past winter. Martin was in po-
sition where he could assist by his
recommendation and was wise enough
to do so. 1t was not because he wanted
to assist the people who are carving
their future on South Dakota lands,
but because it was expedient to do so.

ed States where government lands are
to be homesteaded. Let the record
