Pioneers Choice for Governor.

Capt. G. V. Gardner, Of Piedmont,
who has been a resident OF the state
for nearly thirty-six years, and who
was president Of the state horticul-
tural society a few years ago, voices
his choice for governor at the coming
June primaries.
After stating that some of the can
didateS must be eliminated, or we
may have one that the people will not
endorse at the polls, he says:
l favor the nomination Of A. l..
Van Osdel for several reasons.
1st. His high character and rugged
manhood is not questioned.
End. He is a progressive without
any "strings on him."
Bird. He is a pioneer Of pioneers, and
having been a resident of the state
for more than forty years, and no man
living within it's borders knows the
conditions and environme nts Of The
people better than Honest Abe Van
Osdel," a term applied to him, by his
friends throughout the state.
4th. He is a farmer from away
back. Few men have fought grass
%hoppers, drouth, floods, poverty and
every other misfortune the pioneer
farmer has generally to contend with
longer and more persistently, out Of
it all he has wrought success, with
out a spot or blemish on his good
name.
5th. He Is a member of the cold
guard'-a veteran of the civil war,
and as the state has never had IN
elective soldier governor, his candid
acy should appeal to the "Old boys
who made the nation possible. 1t is
in all probability the last chance they
will have to vote for a comrade for
that high position.
9th. While Mr.. Van Osdel is a pro-
gressive In politics, he is a man of
always on the side of justice, and if
nominated and elected every man
whether farmer or banker, labOrer OF
railroad magnate will get a square
deal"
That is the kind of a man l would
like to see governor OF South Dakota
and the above are some Of my reasons
for favoring the candidacy Of abe
Van OSdel. Huron Huronite.
The Editor OF the Leader has known
"Honest A be Van OSdel" for over 40
years, and no man il the state has a
cleaner record. Able, honest, fear
less, and a man of the people, and the
Editor of the Leader would rejoice
with exceeding joy to see him COVER
nor of the state.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1911-10-06
The Leader Predicted the Slate.

The LEADER said some time ago
that Congressman Burke would not
run for the senate against Gamble,
and Mr.. Burke's announcement as a
candidate for the lower house proves
that the LEADER was right.
The robber tariff interests need
Gamble in the senate and Burke in
the house, showing how nicely those
tariff thinkers down at Washington
regulate their political friends even
out In South Dakota. The LEADER
also stated that the combine was
Gamble. Burke and Gull, with Mar
tin to close the gap. The alignment
shows the high tariff organization
and line Of battle, and it's not a weak
one either, in fact the best that could
be made. Burke and Martin are the
strong end of the lineup, while
Gamble and Gull are the weak sisters.
The progressives are now face to
face with a tariff-corporation combine
that will be backed with all the
money required. and a desperate eff
fort will be made to elect their SEN
ator and two congressman, as we'll as
a corporation tool for the governors
chair at Pierre.
This lineup compells us to inquire
where Mr.. Abel stands on the ques-
ton of corporation control in state
affairs. He is a candidate for lieu
tenant governor and if successful
could render valuable aid to the cor
porations in appointment Of commit
tees in the senate, if that was his pol
icy.
The progressiveS should think OF
something else besides bending all
their energies to carry the state Tor
LaFollette. A La Toilette delegation
to the national convention and a tar
Incorporation victory in the state
wouldn't look we'll in print, and such
a result may happen unless h pro-
gressives get down to business.
In the second district it is reported
that there are three progressive can
didates for congress against Mr.. Burke,
and it looks like defeat for h pro-
gresSives. The same condition exists
in the race for governor with three
progressives against Candles man
Mr.. Gull, and some of these gentle
men are going to be defeated, but not
one of them is willing to admit any
danger to his ambition.
That a large majority of the voters
of the state are progressive there is
no question, and especially so since
the president so clearly showed his
hand in recent vetoes, but the LEAD
Err does not believe they are numer'
GUS enough to divide up between sc
many progressives for any n of them
to win, and it does not require any
great amount of political wisdom tc
discover the weakness of the progress
i've line of battle, and if The progress
ives are defeated it will be their own
fault.

The LEADER would be pleased to
hear from Lincoln county farmers
who are growing alfalfa, giving acre
age, yield and net returns. The
LEADER has already referred to G. A.
Odegard's experience with his 81 acre
field of alfalfa in Norway township.
He cut three crops and at glowing
prices those 80 acres Melted him a
tritle over $1,000. This indicates
that alfalfa is a paying crop and it al
so proves that it will do we'll here and
the LEADER is anxious to see the
farmers Of this county and the state
give it the consideration it deserves.
King Corn and Queen Alfalfa will do
the business. A little information
from those who are growing alfalfa
will help the LEADER in its campaign
| of education.
