SOUTH DAKOTA SOLD
The South Dakota Congressional Dele
cation Promise a Delegation
For President Taft.

He pledged himself in favor Of tariff
reduction but refuses to give the peO-
pie relief when he had the OppOrtuni-
ty He vetoed all bills demanded by
the people and stood firm in defense
of the high tariff robbers. He got his
reciprocity measure through which
will help the rich, if it becomes law,
but refused to sign farmers free
list" bill that would help the masses,
! especially the farmers, yet, iii the
face of this record our public servants
IN congress have pledged the delega-
tion of this state for his renOmina-
ton.
President Taft has no claim on the
republicans of this state, nor will he
receive much consideration at the pri-
maries when the people vote for dele
gates next year, in fact, speaking
from information as to local cOndi-
tionS, we have yet to hear Of single
republican in Canton or the county,
who favOrS the denomination Of Pres
Sident Taft, while, on the other hand,
many are OutspOken in opposition.
In primary test, at the present
time, we do not believe he would re-
ceive 200 votes out Of the 250O repub-
lcan votes in the county, and this
hostility is due to his recent veto Of
measures that favored justice to the
masses.
What single act has President Taft
favored that gives him any claim for
support from the people Of this state?
His veto of the wool tariff bill will
compel the purchasers Of clothing to
pay more for their goods than they
should. His veto of the farmer free
list" bill says in plain language that
he is opposed to giving the people any
relief while urging reciprocity, in ia
vor of the protected classes. He de-
MES the right Of the people of Arizona
to control their own affairs when they
ask for the recall in their constitu-
tion. The people of Arizona will get
the recall, and other states will follow
Arizona in this direction, and it will
not be long before the recall for all
officers will become national issue
and it will win.
When Messrs. Gamble, Crawford,
Martin and Burke pledged and sold
this state to President Taft at din
ner party in the White House, they
undoubtedly assumed that some TO-
OOO- republicans in the state had no
voice in the matter; that the people
were only servants of the four con-

The Canton band met at the Hotel
Rudolph last Sunday and had fine
photograph taken by Arthur Sigrud,
son Of Photographer Sigrud. From
the hotel the band was conveyed to
the Indian asylum where it gave
concert, during which some of the
noble sons and beautiful maidens of
the forest waltzed and double-stepped
with 'hi vi" simplicity. Lunch was
served in the big dining room of the
asylum, and the Indians enjoyed the
white mans 'tom toms" amazingly.
Again Arthur Sigrud lined the musi-
clans up in front of the asylum and
"took" another picture, and standing
on the porch surrounded by bandmen,

The following dispatch from Wash
ington to the Minneapolis Journal of
recent date, tells how and by whom
the delegation from this state to the
national convention was promised to
President Taft
There is peace among the republl- :
can factions of South Dakota, and all
hands are now to join hands in Squar-
ing a solid delegation from that state
for President Taft in the republican
national convention next year IN
til recently there had been some fear
that Senator LaFollette might get a
part of the delegates, but everything
in the state is now said to be lined up
for Taft. In COmmemOratlOn OF tnlS
harmon ious state of affairs, the presi-
dent last night had the entire delega-
tiOn in congress with him for dinner
at the White House. All four were
present. Senator Gamble and Repre-
sentatives Martin and Burke had al
ways been for Taft, but there was
some uncertainty as to Senator CraW-
ford. 1t is now announced that CraW-
ford also is for Taft.
President Taft has no claim on the
republicans of this state after his
veto Of every measure placed before
him asking for justice to the great
agricultural interests of the nation.
South Dakota gave her vote in 1908
to VIM. II. Taft because Col. ROose-
welt refused a nomination and became
sponsor for the man who succeeded
him. South Dakota was not a Taft
CnI1th I1alynra jS do
cidedly not a Taft state now, not
withstanding it has been pledged by
men who can not deliver the goods.
Mr.. Taft in his campaign speeches
gave the people to understand he
favored and would carry out the
Roosevelt policies, and by this system
of political bumcOm be the people
were led to believe he was a reformer
His first official act was to appoint a
cabinet composed Of men who had, In
one way or another, opposed the poll
cies of President Roosevelt and were
personally opposed TO Roosevelt, If
not open enemies, and this class OF
men were counselling President Taft
before Colonel Roosevelt got away on
his African trip.
This was nothing short Of open in
suit, and in calling Col. Roosevelt S
attention to this unusual proceeding
the Colonel remarked: "Mr. Taft de-
ceived me-" and not only has Presl-
dent Taft deceived the man reSpons-
ible for his election, but he has de-
ceived the American people by prom
ising one thing and doing the other.

President Taft denounced the recall
provision Of the A rizOna constitution
in bitter terms in his veto message,
claSSed the people Of what will soon
be u SOuVerign state as little better
than ignOramuSeS for asking for power
to protect themselves against cOrpOr-
alton tools on the bench and drunken
Judges Off the bench. The people
placed Mr.. Taft in the White House,
the people could relieve him by in2-
parchment or refuse him q second
term, and put some one in the White
House who might favor the right Of
the people to regulate state affairs un-
der the federal constitution, at any
rate the President used the recall in
his veto message, but the power that
makes presidents should not be trust
ed to determine what constitutes an
honest or dishonest judge by his ser
vice.
Over at Seattle the people headed
by the best men in the country are
demanding the impeachment and re-
moval Of Federal Judge IIanford, who,
during an Indignation meeting, was
burned in etfgy. He issued in juno
tionS against the people and in favor
Of a railroad, and the decree Of the
court must have been very rotten, for
the people rose enmasSe and de-
nOunCed the court and refused to re.
cOgniZe his order, yet, according to
President Taft, this evidently cor
rupt Judge should not be disturbed
by the people who unfortunately are
pOwerless because the man is appoint
ed by the president. Other decisions
Of this man HanfOrd have brought
him prominently before the country
and general opinion clasSed him as a
corporation tool.
AS a rule impeachment trials are
little better than farceS and to reach
the impeachment stage of federal
Judge would take a year or more in
congress and the interests would
WhitewaSh him in the end.
The people Of North Dakota tried
to impeach district judge last win
| ter and failed, yet the evidence proved
| that hundreds lied on one side or the
other.
Arizona asked for the recall because
the experience of the people Of that
territory told them it was the only
way they could maintain an upright
! judiciary SO far as the state might be
they have no voice.

Taft Denies the Farmer a Square
Deal.

High protection is class power and
privilege denied the masses 1t is
the mother Of graft and the father Of
unholy combines. The history Of the
world proves this and present cOndi-
tiOnS at Washington demonstrates
the wonderful power behind high
protection.
The LEADER supported the PreSi-
dents reciprocity measure, believing
he would be fair enough to give the
farmers a StandOf in the Free List
bill, but when this eminently fair
measure reached him he turned it
down with veto, and it is the Opin-
ion of the LEADER that he made his
reelection mpOSsibl in SO doing.
A prominent republican orator and
high tariff advocate until recently,
said to the writer that the Presidents S
present course in tariff matters was
surprising when taken In connection
with his public speeches, and makes
it all the more certain that radical
changes must take place in our gov
eminent if our bOasted freedom is to
be a reality. The gentleman in queS
ton said that four great political pill
lars must be erected to sustain ma
tional freedom and he clasSed them

will be ready for grand opening
about the middle Of October, and it
ought to he a grand opening Really
it should be a testimonial benefit for
the man who was big enough and
patriotic enough to put something
like $50 900 into an Opera House for
the benefit Of the people who love to
see real dramatic art on a modern
stage. Manager Campbell who has
entertained our people so long with
moving piCtHres. will continue this
popular educational feature and in ad-
ditiOn to dramatic art, the Opera
House will also be used for public en-
tertainmcntS, aIOrding our people for
the first time the comforts and facli-
ties to enjoy a public address, a high
school entertainment or a lecture to
the best advantage When seated in
the elegant upholstered chairs you
will not be obliged to dodge around
behind tall person in front to see
the stage as we have been doing for
some years on a Hat floor.
There will be no Opera House in
the state any larger CT better furnish
ed for the comfort Of an audience
than Canton'S new house, and for this
splendid home Of dramatic art we
must thank Judge Kennedy. Few
men any where, outside Of the large
cities, would have undertaken the
work without asking some Kind Of a
bonus, but the Judge decided to make
the Investment, trusting to generous
public to at least appreciate his efforts
and If the people see tit to give him
rOuSing testimonial benefit on the
opening night, the LEADER believes
no man would appreciate it more, and
the LEADER believes this expression
Of public esteem is due him, not so
much for a financial consideration, as
for a generous appreciation of his
public spirit and IiberaliUy in giving
Canton the best opera house in the
state. The Judge could have used
his money to much better advantage
in other ways, but he decided that
Canton must have a modern opera
house and it Will soon be finished.
Manager Campbell has made no
definite arrangements with any com
pany for the opening night, but we
are assured that the opening attrac-
tiOn viii be something worth going to
see, the best ever seen in Canton and
equal to anything ever produced in
Sioux City. We have the house, the
stage and the scenery, lit for the best
artists in the country, and when the
opening announcement is made there
will be a rush for seats at any price.

others. After the town had been

This party is said to have been led
