Sioux Falls. s. D.. oct. 14.-Interest
in the political contest in South Da-
kota centers in the governorship. The
leading candidates are Gov. Robert s..
Vessey, progressive Republican, who is
seeking reelection, and Chauncey l..
Wood, former mayor of Rapid City,
who is the nominee of the Democratic
party.
For years Gov. Vessey has been
identified with the progressive wing of
the Republican party of the state, and
two years ago, and again in June last,
won the nomination over stalwart Re-
publican opponents. The primaries
last June were holly contested and
feeling was quite bitter between the
two Republican factions. 1t was be-
cause of this that the Democrats
placed Mr.. Wood in the field, their
plan being to take advantage of the
alleged Republican detection. While
South Dakota has normal Republi-
can majority of not less than $4,000
or 10000, the Democrats figure that a
sufficient number of stalwart Republic
cans will bolt Gov. Wesley 10 give Mr..
Wood a victory and land him in the
governors chair.
The Republicans say their party is
united and that the hope of the Demo
Gratis so far as the governorship or
any other office is concerned is vain
one. The Republican ticket, the Re-
publican point out, is made up OF both
stalwarts and progressive Republicans

said TO be the father.
The wealth and prominence of the
accused physician, the unusual method
which he Is accused of employing in

and the subsequent flight OF the in
tended victim to Japan to avoid testi-
fying at the trial are some OF the re-
marketable elements i'm case which has
already attracted wide attention and
the trial of which will undoubtedly be
followed with much interest.
DIR. Burke, who Is a man well along

sanitarium at Alturas. five miles north
NJ this city. on the night of February
r last the patients and attendants OF
the sanitarium were startled by loud
explosion In the sanitarium grounds.
Irpon investigating 1t was found that
the explosion had occurred beside n
house tent in which slept Miss Lu Et-
IA Smith and her infant son. Fur

plosion had undoubtedly been caused
by a stick of dynamite. The perpeta-
tor Of the outrage however. had made

many weeks before the woman recov-

Theodore Roosevelt, on the occasion of
his visit to South Dakota some weeks
ago. publicly gave utterance to the
hope that Gov. Vessey and Congress
man Martin and Burke would be re-
elected and say the Republicans of the
state will heed the advice of the ex-
president.
The Democrats are conducting their
campaign on the charge that the Re-
publican administration of Gov. Yes
sey has been extravagant and waste
full of the taxpayers money. In reply to
this charge the Republicans say the
state has had a wonderful growth dur
ing the past few years and that more
money than formerly is absolutely
necessary to meet the new and in
creased legitimate demands and keep
South Dakota in the forefront of the
prosperous and growing states of the
northwest. The Republican leaders
predict that the Republican congress
sional and state ticket will have not
less than 10000 majority at the No
vember election, and that this major
ity may run nearer 10000.
The Republicans are basing their
campaign on the record of having en-

form legislation.

EDITORIAL


While the attention of the public
is being attracted or distracted by
the proposed prize-fght in San Fran
cisco on July the Fourth for the
Worlds championship, we wish to
take occasion 80 express our opinion
of that relict of barbarism. We boast
a good deal OF the advances we have
made over our savage ancestors who
roamed Europe centuries age, when
brute force stalked over the land
gloating in It's crIei and vandalic
victories over the weaker Ia IDS or
individuals who happened to stand
in the way of their ambition or Gov
etousness. g We refer with shrugs OF
horrors to the bloodthirsty Roman
popuiace who thronged the great
amphitheatres of their day and saw
stalwart gladiators engage ia deadly
conflict with short swords, for the l
delectation.
