ROOSEVELT ON BEvERIDGE. I
81 ask your support of Senator I
Beyor1dge and for all those ON
the ticket with him, who are
supporting him, and who stand
necessarily for the same causes
for which he stands. In more
than one state of the Union 1 am
obliged to warn men against the
crook In public life. In my own
state OF New York we have just
} won victory within our own
party, against men who tried to
) override the popular will.
} stand against the crook, and II
} he Is of my own party 1 Will
) eiarh him just little quicker

} other party, because he Is
} disgrace to me. But IT does nc
good to stand against the crook
unless you also stand for the
) honest man. 1t does no good, or
} at least 1t does very little good,
} to stand against the crooked
} man unless you also make IL evil
} dent that you will stand for the
honest man. Half Of the victory

The young people OF Canton are en-
joying the best skating In years and
some of the older mes are showing that
they al come back"
Mrs. Julia Dibble Warner came in
from the west Saturday and found a
very warm welcome from the LEADER
family and her many other friends in
Canton. Mr.. Warner came as far as
Mitchell where he stopped to assist In
the Western National bank during
the holiday rush. He will be here for
Christmas.
Rosen Ingebretson OF Fairview was
in town Saturday and called to renew
his subscription. "Al1 my fall work is
finished, y said Kosen, land now I am
digging a deep we'll to secure plenty
of water, and found a good showing

water, down Jul way. It's better
than bottled stuff and healthier"
Perkins, one of the new counties,
cast 1891 votes at the November elect
ion, and 212e OF this vote was cast for
Governor Wesley, against 653 for
Wood, the highest republican major
ity in the state. Lincoln was the
banner county two years ago, but
Perkins and other northwest counties
got about three hundred good voters
from Lincoln in the past two years,
still Lincoln showed up a majority OF
946 for Wesley over Wood.

don't run a continuous Sunday school
with whisky bottles hid in convenient
holes near the chapel, and the gang
down town doing all they can to keep
the boozers boezing and the home in
a turmoil. That's why it is SO pleas
ant TO run a soldiers home. The
gang made trouble for Col. Lucas,
Col. Megrew, Col. Linn, Col. Goddard,
Col. Dudley and have been working
over time to get Col. Geddis removed
because they can't run him or the
home. Poor Col. Dudley, honest,
trusting, christian gentleman, vas no
match for the conspirators. He found
himself with a deficiency of SIS, 600,
and he worried yer it until the
trouble killed him.
In conclusion let me affirm that the
South Dakota Soldiers Home is in
fine condition and it will continue to
be sober and decent in spite Of the
Hot Springs pink tea kickers, Office
holders and office seekers, and that
Gov. Wesley, Col. Geddis and Linn
and Nelson'' think more of an old
soldier in a minute than the fellows
who ''hang their heads in disgrace"
could in a thousand years, and we de-
fy the gang to prove their statement
or any part of it.

Can He?

Sioux City Tribune: Correspondents
in Washington say that the chief
talk among the assembled .stateman
Is under two heads: Can Taft be re-
nominated in 1912? II renominated.
can he be elected? The second ques-
tion implies possibility Of an afirma-
tive answer to the first one. The Sc
cend carries a Doubt as to the result
IL he be so far successful as to secure a
nomination. AS to the first, it is safe
to predict that he will get few, If any,
delegates from the progressive states.
There is no reason why ne should
and the reasons why he should not
are numerous and lie upon the surface.
They began to accumulate March 3,
1909, when he turned his back on the
progressives and his face to the stand
patters. There has been steady aug
inclination of them since. Doubtless,
he can secure most Of the delegations
from the rotten boroughs of the south.
Possibly, the interests he has not OPP
posed and those whom he, has served,
may secure him some delegates In the
eastern states, though the November
elections render that doubtful. But
granting he gets the nomination can
he be elected? Will the millions of
~progressives who gave him their votes
In 1908, with reservations and doubts,
give them again in face Of the record
he has made? Answer will depend
assn ~he Is chosen by the democrats
to oppose him. II it be Wilson, or
Foss, or Gaynor, progressive demo
Gratis, those votes will 80 to them just
as they went to them in their recent
candidates.. IL, however, the demo
Gratis are insanely influenced to select
= esafe and sane" man by the great
interests 1t is probable that we shall
have a repetition Of 1860 with the old
er parties shattered and . new one
formed Of their fragments.

The total vote Of the state cast at
the November election was lO5,s0l,
and h state gained 1s2, 9ls, IL pcru!-
alton from 1900 to 1910. Unless the
basis of the population for each con-
gresham Is raised above 225 900,
South Dakota will get three congress-
men out Of the deal.
Col. Pringle, supervising engineer
for the interior department. is here
and has been engaged in locating a
line for the sewerage system for the
Indian Asylum, and it is the inten-
ton OF Col. Pringle to connect with
the City system by running pipe from
the south line of the Asylum ground
along the Milwaukee right of way.
This way out of the trouble seems to
give satisfaction to all concerned, as
there was considerable opposition to
the proposed plan of running the
sewer into the river above the City,
and Col. Pringle Is to be congratulate
ed for solving this hitherto difficult
problem.

pital or the quartermaster's store
house. Then to think that some of
men are ''turned out In the winters
cold without food or shelter This is
quite serious but n of the pink tea
gang whose name appears in the mes
sage is a county commissioner, and If
cur memory is not seriously wrong he
has been running a drug store for
twelve years or more, and selling bot
tied supplies to the destitute and
physically incapacitated" for a longer
time. It is not to be wondered at if
he kicks when the old soldiers pen
sion money is all in the rat hole,"
for these would be reformers have no
further use for the dear destitute vet
eran. Then to think that Linn and
Nelson chortle in glee owe the suffer
ings of these poor men," Chortle
must be something abominable. We
don't cho.tle any, perhaps Nelson
does. Wen ask him.
No man v e lived or ever will live
who ear run a soldiers home to suit
the ~drunkards inside and OUT, or the
fellows who fill the old soldiers full of
of booze that they may handle their
pension money. The men who run
the South Dakota Soldiers Home are
veterans themselves and know how to
Isympathize with the unfortunates
and have piead aud urged many Of
them brought before the board for a
hearing to mend their ways. Men
have been suspended and discharged
frequently and taken back on promise
OF good behavior, ana then Turn
around and go right down town and
get drunk again, and there you are,
and what + you going to do with
such men? To keep them In the
home means he'll for the we'll disposed
and would eventually force out of the
nome ali good men vino are opposed
to whisky and drunkards and that
means a large per cent. That's the
issue in a nut shell.
Shall whisky and drunkards run the
home or shall decency, good order and
temperance prevail?
Let me say and with thorough
knowledge to back the statement,
that COL. Geddis is very fair and yer
lenient at times In treatment Of those
who defy authority and violate the
rules. He has saved the state thous-
ands of dollars because Of his excel
lent business management and kept
grafters from robbing the home, and
this is one reason why he is not liked.
He intends to resign the first Of next
April, IL those fellows don't force him
70 Gghts and he Is a fighter and was q
fighter from Bull Run to Appomattox.
He went In as . private and came
home In command OF his regiment,
and those pink tea reformers call him
T. tyrant.
We care not who succeeds Col.
Geddis, there will never be . better
man In command OF the home, and
there will never be 4 commandant in
that home who will do than he
has done to reform drunkards and
deal justly with those needing .
square deal because Of their own folly,
and the only thing required OF any
man 10 the home Is that he be decent
and obey the rules Had those re-
formers shown q little reforming sym
(pathy for the worthy veterans" and

See Nicodemus up tree,
And Lazarus | too espy.
see the fellow too each day
Who thanks the Lord above that he,
Is not as Jones across the way,
Yet greater sinner he may be.
And those see who pray aloud
On purpose to be heard of men,
With swelling words before crowd
With repetitions now and then.
The widow too clearly in sight
Is seen by me from day to day,
see her give widows might
And turn about and walk away.
The good Samaritan see
And love to clasp his friendly hand,
His friend | always hope to be,
As long as earth and heaven stand. !
But where is Christ see Him not,
The meek and holy Son of Man. 4
But few with him dare cast their lott
BY living strictly to His plan.
The money kings with wealth in ston
Will turn about and walk away,
If asked to give it to the poor,
They want no heaven in that way.
Whoever clothes the poor in need
And visits the distressed and i'll,
And those who faint with hunger feeo
Do it to Christ, they fill the bill.
