The plank in the platform of
the LaFollette self-called ''Pro-
gresSives" upon which they
stamp hardest is that demanding
the elimination of the evil of ma
chine politics. But they have
announced that Mr.. Fackler will
from headquarters in Columbus
effect an organization of the state
by townships. Will he then have
a machine?

If You Own Cows

1t will not only be interesting but it
will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim
balls Dairy Farmer. 1t is published
semi-monthly at Waterloo, Iowa, the
hub of the great dairy region of the
central west. 1t is ably edited, well
printed on good book paper and hand
somely illustrated by actual photo
graphs taken exclusively for it. Its
purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his COWS yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless of how many
other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only
80 cents year, and the paper will
positively be discontinued at expira
ton. Send for sample copy.

The Democratic state machine
has undertaken to organize the
Constitutional Convention, with
Rev. Mr.. Bigelow as president,
although the law enacted by a
Democratic legislature made it a
nonpartisan body. There is COM
fort in thinking that there is not
now a surplus of six millions to
dissipate by increasing the num-
Der of state officers and raising
their salaries.

President Roosevelt, offering to
support him for the nomination !

it was made clear. Crane is ra-
ted a shrewd political observer.
He had read the signs, it was an
nounced. He realized that Taft
could not be elected" True pa
triot that he is, he turned at once
to the man who could be.
Splendid political story that,
but Senator Crane hasn't written
to President Roosevelt, and does
favor the denomination of Presi-
dent Taft, serenely confident
that he can and will be re-elect-
ed.
The great Controller Bay con-
spiracy, designed to discredit the
Presidents Alaskan policy, has
been given it's coup de grace in
the house of its friends. Louis
Id. Brandeis of Boston was to
give the weight of his analytical
powers to an ingenious dissent
nation of the falsehoods ard dis
tortions which it harbored. But
Mr.. Brandeis would no. put his
hands into the filthy mess. The
conspirators had overshot the
mark when they endeavored to
drag him in. He exposed the fu-
tility of further utilizing Con-
troller Bay as a vehicle for the
bamboozling of the public, and
declined to give his services to
the conspirators. Of the Con-
troller Bay canard not a shred is
left; it has been torn to tatters
with the Dick-to-Dick myth; it
has taken its place with the
Muenchhausen tales and the An,
nails of Ananias. 1t is as dead
as the stories of President Taft'S
"unfriendliness" toward DR.

Washington Letter.
The PROGRESS.

Inc perlOO OF Cne political pipe
dream is again upon us.
The purpose of the dreamers,
now as four years ago, is to make
it appear that President Taft is
the chosen of neither party nor
people. All the campaign meth
DDS of four years ago have been
revived; the Bourbons are re-
sponsible for their resuscitation.
Next weeks crop of canards
will be quite as fanciful and gro
tesque. The groundwork of mis-
representation, so carefully laid
over a period of years, has been
cracked by the gradually accel-
Grated appreciation of the Pres
ident on the part of the Ameri-
can public. 1t is, therefore, no
longer a safe undertaking to i'm
pugn his motives and distort his
purposes. The attacks have ia.
ken another tack; the personal
equation enters more largely into
them.
Misrepresentation with re-
gard to the Presidents western
trip no longer serve their pur-
pose. The tales of hostile gov
ernors and unfriendly people
have been exploded by the dec
larations of the governors and
the reports of the local neHspa-
pers which told the truth about
the receptions accorded to the
Chief Executive on his travels.
1t behooved the opposition, there
fore. to drag in others. Cover
nor Eberhart of Minnesota was
first made to serve their purpose.
The announcement was made
that, because of his own candi-
dacy, the Governor. recognizing
the hostility of public opinion in
Minnesota, had withdrawn his
declared support of the President
for denomination and reelection.
It was a somewhat staggering
announcement, but Governor Eb-
erhart put it at rest in short Or
der, however. II am for Presi-
dent Taft for a second term, /" he
said. That sort of publicity
will not do his opponents any
good. It will result in strength
ening Mr.. Taft in Minnesota.
We are for him. and when it is
generally known that an effort
has been made to misrepresent
facts. there will be a reaction
that will aid Dir. Taft"

chusetts, a supporter Of Presi-
dent Taft. was dragged into the
arena. It was made to appear

Dakota Mutual Locates Branch

A deal that promises to be one
of the best things that ever hap
pened to Lennon was consum-
med last Monday evening. when
c. 0. Bachleller' Agency Director
of the Dakota Mutual Life In
surance, located. at Aberdeen
and Dan w. Bannister, special
agent from Watertown met the
Commercial Club in their rooms.
These men asked for seventy
five thousand dollars of business,
promising that if this was Sc
cured they would locate a
branch Office here. and work the
western part of the state from
this city. An expression of the
meeting was asked for and a un-
animous endorsement received.
The chair then appointed F. A.
Finch, of the First State Bank,
Smith of the Nat'l Bank and T.
O. Ramsland. Milwaukee town
site agent, as a committee of
three to confer with these gent.
lemen, and to help them get the
guarantee of business.
They report great success, and
within few days a well furnish
ed and equipped Office will be
added to the already large num-
Der of Lennon enterprises. Mr..
Dan w. Bannester. will have
charge of the branch here, and
expects to have six or ten men
working out of here. as quick as
he can get them.
This branch is going to mean
a great deal to our city, not only
in a direct way, in the number
of men it will bring here but in
an indirect and larger way, in
furnishing protection to the
people, and keeping the insur-
ance money in the state. where
it can be more easily obtained BY
the policy holders of the company
Lennon is to be congratulated
in securing this branch.

Farmers Organize at Lennon

Saturday afternoon last, C. O.
Drayton. President of the Farm
ers' Equity Union. was a guest
in the city and addressed a rep
resentative and thoroughly ap-
preciatlve gathering of agricul.
turists at Lennon opera house.
AS result a local farmers society
was organized. and we present
below the resume of this import.
ant gathering in the words of
one interested who took part:
The Farmers Equity Union is
making an effort to organize
fifteen or twenty new Farmers
Elevator Companies in South
Dakota. c. O. Drayton, the
national president, spoke to a
good bunch of farmers in Lem
mon opera house on June 10th.
The hall ought to have been filled
with farmers. This was one of
the most practical addresses ever
made to them in Lennon.
He contends that the farmers
greatest difficulty is the fact
that they are a great mob of SELL
ers and play right into the hands
of Trusts and Spectators every
time they have a good crop and
lose hundreds of millions of dol
lars on their best crops. He says
Secretary Wilson showed that
the farmers of the United States
raised 12O millions bushels more
grain in 1906 than in 1905 and
sold it for 40 million dollars less.
He holds that our largest crops
of finest quality bring the farm
ers less money than the small in

ferior crops. He says railroads,
spectators and millers make
hundreds of millions of dollars
hauling, handling and grinding
the large crops but the farmers
who ought to put on the first
price lose money on them
This not only Injuries farmers but
home business men. Mr.. Dray-
ton, pleads for a national union
that will educate farmers to be
more intelligent, moral a n d
fraternal and to be golden rule
cooperators. He says Economic
freedom is only possible to an in
telligent, moral, fraternal people.
He also gave practical talk on
a farmers cooperative elevator
company. Every farmer present
joined the Lennon Local Union.
Mr.. Drayton will speak again
in Lennon Opera House June
Both 200 P. M. He will discuss
five questionsin his next lecture.
viz. How could we be snre of
one dollar bushel for all good
wheat from this state in the next
ten years? What will we do
about Canadian Reciprocity?
What will we do with the poor
farmers who can not hold?
What will we do with the Surplus ?
How will we get them to stick?
Every farmer ought to bring his
family to Lennon opera house
June 30th 2:0OP. Nj. The lecture

June proves very popular as
the month of weddings among
the young people of Lennon,
and this week records several
nuptials of note.
Word comes from Java, S. D.,
the home of the bride, that on
Thursday morning of last week
Miss Vina Erbe and Mr.. Howard
Reeve were joined there in we'd
lock. The ceremony was per-
formed in presence of only the
nearest relatives and friends of
the young people. Mr.. Reeve
had left Lennon in his automo-
bile, and the young people
Immediately set out on wedding
trip. They visited Aberdeen and
took in the Elks' con yention,
with nothing to mar their honey
moon except getting held up by
the police there for the lack of
their car being properly number
ed and labeled. From there they
proceeded to MIR. Reeves former
home at Milbank. After a
week s outing at Lake Traverse,
they will return to Lennon, and
rumor has it that the young
people will be accorded a recep-
ton most ardent.

START UP THE DAIRY TALK.

A short time ago there was lots
of talk in this community of
skimming stations, creameries,
silos, ard general dairying enter
prises being launched in the
near future, and it really looked
tor "a time like there might be
something going to be done. Then
there was a lull. What stopped
it all? This season has more
clearly demonstrated the fact
that this is superior dairy coun-
try than ever before. Possibly
the big crops this season have too
much engrossed the people, for
big grain crops and dairying
some how, do not seem to work
well together; or, maybe, the
town friends of dairying have
gone to sleep, ceased to agitate
the subject, or just lain down on
it. Be that as it may, there
should be an awakening to full
Ter realization of our needs and
opportunities along this particul-
ar line of enterprise and money
making, for it is a winner and
has brought success and good
bank accounts wherever tried.
The following testimonial from
the Peek Reporter fits in well
right here:
Several years ago the editor
of this paper undertook to in
terest the farmers of this see
ton in dailying. His efforts
were successful, and today
this part of the country excels
in the production of cream.
The monthly cream check is
welcome visitor and is ac-
cepted as legal tender by the
business men and treated as
cash by the bank. Men who
years ago depended upon day
work for the support of then
families now own dairy herds
and are absolutely indepen
dent; all of which is good fol
everyone concerned. "
