VERMONT NATIONAL GUARD DOES
WELL.

the Vermont National Guard seems to

The reports are all the more pleasing
because the V. y. @. was brought into

INSTRUCTIONS FROM HAPGooD
AS to How to Vote Slashed Ticket

of the hour is how can the ordinary

are joined together and a single mark
at the top votes them alb. In case the
voter desires to change single name
he must put a mark against the name
of every one he votes for. but, of course,
he need not vote the whole ticket.
But in case lie desires to vote the
straight ticket with the privilege Of
emitting one or more names he can put
q cross at the head Of the column and
draw a line through he name Of the
one he desires to omit
This manifests the intention of the
voter beyond all question, and is a

The unquestioned intention Of the voter

1.-The PRIMARY Election.

Lay it to the factional fight and to
bossism in the republican party; that's
what did it. The house divided
against itself has fallen. The people
of South Dakota are justly tired of
the fight between kitredge and his
friends and Richards and his friends
for control of the party and will have
no more of it. Independence of per-
sonal voting has come to stay and
while 1t may not always be directed
by right thinking it will not brook
dictaJion. Now is the time to reor-
ganize the party. Clean it up, elimi-
nate the bosses and the would-be los
ses. The republican party is still the
grand old party of progress and pros
perity, but it must be republican
without distinguishing marks of caste
or brass collar of any personal owner
ship. Let it be republican in the in
terest of the people and it will again
be successfuE The heavy vote given

Change of Management.

With this issue the UNION passes

the Western Publishers Union. Dis
poSal of the property was necessitated
by my inability, on account of other
interests elsewhere that demand my

manently and devote all my time and
energy which would be necessary in
order to build up successful bust
ness in this rapidly developing portion
of the state.
The change of management will be
of considerable benefit to the paper
and consequently to Rapid City.
The Western Publishers Union is a
cooperative concern owning and op-
perating thirty weeklies and one daily

old road will be rebuilt. This will give
us a safe line during the summer, and
will give us a line to work from in our
building project for the new line.
"The cost of reconstructing of the
old line will not exceed $500, 900, but
what the new line will cost we DO not
know. There is a large part of the
old line which can be used, and most
of the big steel bridges in the canyon
are in excellent shape.
sour supplies were ordered long ago,
and a great part of them already are on
hand here, and in Salt Lake. We will
work on the old line from both ends at
once, and viii probably have it in shape
within ninety days. After that the
new line will be completed, aul the
old one will be taken up. In many
places we will be able to use the old
line all the time, so our cost on the
new win not be excessive.

the estimate of cost; the reports sent
out from Salt Lake City that our loss
is $12, 900 are absolutely without
foundation"

Death TAKES PRESIDENT
OF THE POWER COMP ANY.
Frank ]. Campbell, About to Assume
Active Management of Operations,
SuCCumbs to Pneumonia

I, Mr.. Campbell was the president and
head of the power company, having
associated with him Mr.. &. M. Hobbs
as an active general manager, and ON
the first of February of the present
year, Mr.. Campbell again took up the
presidency of the power company, with
the intention of spending a large part
of his time in Nevada in looking after
the active management of this large
corporation.
He has for years been the active
business head of the Vindieator Con
solidated company, the Eagle Ore
Sampling company and other large min
ing interests in the state of Colorado,
and has always been known as a very
busy man.
Those who knew him best loved him
most and his high sense of business in
tegrity, his honor and fairness In deal
ing with his fellow men, his excellent
business Judgment and his true friend
ship were most important things in
making his business life a success. He
was a splendid organizer, a man who
understood men, and in his passing on,
his friends and associates have sus-
tanned a loss which is hard to express
in human thought.
Mr.. Campbell's family consists of his
wife and two married daughters, Mrs.
A. B. West and Mrs. Irving t. Snyder,
all of Denver, Colorado, and an unmar-
ried daughter, Helen w. Campbell, who
is attending school at Mount Vernon
Seminary, Washington, d. G.
One of his business associates, who
is now in Goldfeld and who left Nh.
Campbell about the time his illness
came upon him, tells The News that 1t
is seldom in life that one is privileged
to have as a business associate a man
of such sterling worth and character,
whose everyday life seemed to be a
poem of faith, hope and charity, and
whose friendship was as constant as the
rising and setting of the sun.
The citizens of Nevada who knew
Mr.. Campbell join in expressing to his
family and his friends their deepest
sympathy.
