R w. RUSSELL DRUG co,

Thomas Sterling has yielded to
the demands of the radical element
and has pledged his support to the
La Toilette cause. The move may
not prove fatal to his aspirations
for the United States senate, but
we believe it will at least weaken
his chances. The old factional
lines in the party are now almost
obliterated on the presidential is
sue and there never was better
opportunity for strong candidate
to declare himself simply on his
principles, rise above the petty
strifes and pickering gs that have.
divided the party, and win. The
demand that he declare for La
Toilette did not come from those
who were personally interested in
him but from those who wished to
use his influence in the support of
MIR. La Toilette. This is shown
by the comments of the papers on
his declaration. For instance the
Sioux Falls Press in opening its
editorial comment says, "The en-
dorsement of La Toilette by Dean
Thomas Sterling, will add strength
to the La Toilette candidacy in
this state" This was the meat in
the cocoanut. So far as Mr..
Sterling's fitness for the Office he
seeks is concerned, 1t doesn't
matter whom he personally prefers
for president, but when he subor-
dinates his own candidacy to that
of Mr.. La Toilette, and makes his
personal prestige a mere propa-
ganda for MIR. La Toilette, it is
to say the least, a great disappoint-
ment to his many personal friends
who favor Mr.. Taft. So far as Mr.
Gamble is concerned his declar-
alton on the presidential issue will
make very little difference, as he
has personal record and will
have to stand on that rather than
on his promises. That record
does not commend him as states
man, but rather as a petty polite
ian of the rule or ruin type. Many
of the voters had hoped that with
Mr.. Streling in the race they would
be able to play the game with bigger
stakes but if it is 10 dwindle to a
penny ante game they will lose
interest.
