ROBERT A. STORM
Candidate for States Attorney
INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.

To the Republican Voters of Brookings
County:
Just a word in explanation as to why
| am classed as an independent pro-
gressive candidate for the legislature.
When | went TO file my petition, |
was told that | was too hostile in
regard to appropriations and advised
to go to the president of the agricu;-
tural college for his endorsement.
This | refused to do for the ~eason
son that | supported everything that
Brookings county asked for at the
last session of the legislature but did
not see fit to vote for several APP
preparations asked for by other in
stitution counties. | refused to vote
for a number of appropriations asked
for, for the simple reason that | did
not then and do not now consider
they were pressing need for the funds
asked for. This caused considerable
kicking and we were told that Brook
ings county could not get any appro-
priations unless we, the representa-
tives from Brookings county voted
solidly for everything asked by other
institution counties. Subsequent
events proved they were wrong as
We had no difficulty in convincing
the majority OF the members that
every dollar asked for by Brookings
county was needed and we received
the support of a large majority of
the members when our bills came up
for passage. Brookings county agri-
cultural college received about $780,
000, 90 at the hands of the legisla-
ture of 1909 and I do not think The
taxpayers of this county or the mem.
bers of the college faculty will say
they were mistrea.ed.
am informed further that no one
would be acceptable to the managers
of the campaign unless he were strict
ly an appropriation man and would
stand for any and all appropriations
asked for by any of the institution
counties for the sake Of getting what
Brookings county asked for.
!. Now. what do you think Of that,
Mr. Voter and Taxpayer? Are you

little question of the return OF Repre-

other term in congress. They should
be returned, and the News believes
they will be. South Dakota expert

not care to repeat. The west is wont
to object, at times, to the predominant
influence the east exercises upon pub
lie affairs in the United States, yet
the west is O much inclined to refuse
to profit by the lesson the example of
the east teaches. The casts predomi-
nance is due, more than any other one
thing, to the fact that it selects good
men for congress and the senate, and
then sends them back. term after

statesmen. Martin and Burke have
become seasoned statesmen. wise be-
cause of native ability and legislative
experience. They are of a class of
men calculated to add prestige to the
west in the national councils of the
country.-Aberdeen Daily News.

LYNDEN MAKES NINE 4.
AND EMERSON THREE

In a seven inning game Lynden's
base ball team beat the Everson team
by score of 9 to 3, last Saturday
afternoon.
A large crowd witnessed the game
and enjoyed it, and in spite OF long
drawn argument as TO the merits OF
the two teams, it was a friendly game.
Owing to the fact that the Blame

duled on the same grounds 1t was
impossible to play the full nine
