of a progressive democrat?
That republicans, and lots of demo-
Gratis, prefer workers who get results,
like Martin and Burke, rather than
uncertain ambitious democratic poll
ticians.
Beresford Republic: II Chauncey
l.. Wood had only known that he was
going to run for governor, and had
have induced the democratic members
of the last legislature to vote in oppo-
sition to the amendments and meas
ures which he is now having a fit
about, his argument might have APP
peared more sincere.
Iroquois Chief: A man who is
ashamed of his party and lacks the
nerve to stand squarely on his party
platform is not entitled to the votes
of anybody. Mr.. Soule should shut
off his supply of soft soap and sail
under his true colors or ithdraw
DeSmet News: 1t is never wise to
give a candidate of an opposition par
ty a complimentary vote on the theory
that it is an off year and the result
is not important. The matter of
friendship should not govern your
vote. " . If you have a party
preference stand by the nominees OF
that party.
Platte Tribune: Governor vessey
will receive a good vote in this coun-
~ for the people down this way like
him. Thty know that he has made
a good governor.
Philip News: 1t looks now as IL
South Dakota will poll the largest re-
publican vote hat has ever been re-
corded. We don't believe that Mr..
Wood will get anywhere neal h
normal democratic vote. Wherever
he goes and whenever he speaks he
makes enemies instead of friends. His
is not pleasing and his logic
still more offensive. Misrepresenta-
ton and abuse will never make votes
for any candidate no matter to what
party he belongs.
Wakonda Monitor: The Monitor
believes the republican state ticket to
be the best and strongest that has
been lined up for years. There Is
not a man on il of whom a word OF
honest condemnation can be said.
Faulkton Record: The state is on a
cash basis, with a very large balance
in the general fund, the net debt be-
ing not more than four hundred thou
sand, a fact which makes some of the
(democratic) campaign literature look
rather queer.
Gettysburg News-Courier: Vote the
whole ticket straight is the advice Of
the News-Courier. The men who are
seeking office on the republican ticket
are all worthy of the support of their
party. Stick to the party and vote
the ticket straight.
Although in their efforts to hood
wink republican voters into voting
for them on the ground that they are
as good republicans as the most ar
lent republican in the state, If the
backs of Candidates Wood, Soule and
Kelley were scratched, dyed-in-the.
wool democrats would be found un-
derneath.
congressman Martin and Burke
have more than made good at Wash
ington, and at the election on Nov.
s will be returned 70 serve two years
more in the national house of repre-
sentatives, whtre they have reflected
great honor on themselves and their
state.

The Morristown World pays this
concise tribute to Governor Robert
S. Wesley, republican nominee for re-
election: He Is the same honest.
plain, big-hearted mar yea after
year. He loves the people and their
welfare above honors or office. He
stands squareIy or the Roosevelt
platform and has the unlimited on
