MUST BEAT EGAN TO BE Gov
ERNOR

That is the decision just arrived al
by a hungry horde of no account
place hunters in this state. The bunch
are hard hit by something that has a
striking resemblance to stage fright.
The most recent indication of un-
easiness comes from Ernest May.
state senator from Lawrence county
When asked what he thought of Can
didate Byrnes chances for the nomi-
nation for governor, Mr.. May said to
a reporter for the Deadwood Tele-
gram:
In my opinion the question of who
shall be the republican candidate for
the governorship, depends entirely
upon who can master the strength to
defeat Geo. w. Egan for the nomina
ton. 1t is too early, IN my opinion.
in connection with the governorship
| know Z. M. Byrne's worth as man
and appreciate his ability, but the
question is, is he the man to defeat
Egan? Do the people in question
want continuation of the present
policies in South Dakota and will
they support man who will follow
the Vessey plan of governing the
state, or will they favor some other
plan, the Egan plan for instance.
The man who can beat Egan is
the man of the hour, in my judg-
ment."

FIRE LOOKOUT ON HARVEY


Some time ago lookout station
was established on the top of Custer
Peak, to keep watch on fires in the
Black Hills reserve. This station is
connected by telephone with head
quarters at Deadwood, and any fire
which starts is quickly reported. a
similar station has been provided for
the Harney reserve in the southern
Hills, the lookout being from Harney
peak. These stations are supplied
with watchmen who know the coun-
try, and they quickly locate any fire
which may start, and fire lighting
forces are hurried to the location
which they report.

THE DELEGATION DINED

Huron Huronite lat the white house
Thursday evening. President Taft
entertained a select party consisting
of Senators Gamble and Crawford
and Representative Burke and Mar.
tin, giving the distinguished Dako-
tans something to eat to keep them
good natured.
The function was pulled off, so it is
explained in news dispatches, to give
the president and the South Dakota
delegation an opportunity to discuss
the attitude of this state in relation
to the presidential nomination.
Mr.. Taft is worried over the proba-
bility conveyed to him that South
Dakota republicans are leaning
strongly toward LaFollette, Con-
gresham Matrin having expressed
the opinion that the Wisconsin sena.
tor was entrenched in the affections
of the people out this way.
The dinner party was therefore
something in the nature of a council
of war-to devise ways and means for
preventing the people Of South Dako-
ia from doing what they want to do.
So the council of war over the good
things to be found on the white house
dining table may not result in the
suppression of South Dakota senti,
ment through tile good Offices of the
congressional delegation of the
state, should it's members enter the
field as the champions of the host OF
the evening.
1t is believed here in the state that
both the senators and both the repre-.
sentatives from this state are favor.
able to the nomination of Mr.. Taft
though there has been no direct OK.
preston of opinion by any of then,
unless by Mr.. Martin.
Mr.. Burke is not seriously in love
with Mr.. Taft and he does not snug
gle up to Mr.. LaFollette. Mr.. Gam
BILE believes in all that Mr.. Taft he.
lieves in, retaining his fealty to the
"old guard. Mr.. Crawford has beer
a fair administration man during his
term of public service, though it car
not be stated that he will favor Taft
or will not favor him.

THE BOSS BossED

The combination in the United
States house of representatives that
rendered possible the passage of bills
like the wool tariff and the farmers
free list has been rendered ineffec-
tive to the presidential veto as having
been secured to overcome the will of
the president.
Whatever may be tue merits OF
these measures in the estimation of
the country at large, the public can
attribute their failure only to the
exercise of the raordinary power
lodged in the executive, a power that
ought to be employed rarely, if at ALL
1t remains for the custodians of
the ballot to approve or disapprove
of the position assumed by the presi-
dent and they will be heard from at
the election OF next year.
In pushing through congress the
Canadian agreement that calls for
free trade in the products of the farm
and in vetoing the bill that called for
free trade in some of the things the
farm producer Las to buy ~ the mar
ket of monopoly, President Taft has
certainly contributed to the defeat of
his party.
This conclusion is based upon the
belief that Mr.. Taft will become the
accepted candidate for reelection.
He certainly does not and cannot
stand well among the voters of the
vast agricultural northwest, and it
must be concluded that he prefers
the good will Of the interests he is
protecting to that of the yeomanry
that is so useful one day in every four
wears,

EVERY STATE ACCEPTS SPACE

Seven states and Alaska have ac-
cepted the space rendered them at
the Northwest Land Show to be held
in St. Paul December II to % under
the auspices of the Northwestern De-
yelopment league.
A week ago word was sent to
the governors of the states advising
that space had been bought by Min
neapolis, st. Paul and Duluth busi-
| ness men to he apportioned to the
states IN the league. Every governor
has replied that the space would be
accepted and filled with products.
Among the most interesting exhi-
bits will be that from Alaska, which
will show not only the mineral, fur
and fish products, but also demon
strate that Alaska is a good country
for gardening and will produce more
wheat and barley than Norway and
| Sweden combined.

has been feeding, is going to be about

is THE DEMOCRACY PROGRESSIVE

He who takes passaffe over the sea
of political storms in the good ship
democracy, because of the glamour
of its name, should pray for fair
weather, and tie bailing bucket to
his wrist. This is said in sorrow
that has no trace of anger, after she
has been inspected in dry-dock by
such master-seamen as John Pier
pont Morgan, and pronounced sea-
worthy. Possibly the doubt just ex-
pressed is impelled by, rather than
in despite of, such Endorsement.
1t may be that haunting fear that
she will spring leak where the wat
er is deep, is due in part to the in
creasing Importance in the democra-
tic counsels of those who sit at the
tariff tables, and in the seats of the
money-kings. The south has become
protectionfst = ultra protectionist
where cotton and steel are concerned
for the south now manufactures both
steel and cotton. The strength of
the tariff graft is local self interest,
and the new recruit will not willing
ly leave the feast of Special Privi-
lege.
The democratic party has been long
on desire for Office, and short on
principles. 1t is to be feared that
now. with victory in sight, it will cast
the principle part of its luggage over
board. Not willingly; not with the
consent of the rank and file: not in.
the open will this be done, bnt rather
in the dark, by the instigation and at
the hands of those who have split the
republican party in twain in their at
tempt to control absolutely the course
OF government. The inyidious forces
shat give purpose to true democracy
and to real progression exist in both
parties, and to an alarming degree in
the high councils of the democracy,
The same split that is open and giO-
lent in the republican party crosses
over the party gap and is already a
definite line Of cleavage in the coun-
ellis of the democracy. The senate
minority is organized by the reaction
ary crowd; the house majority has
yet to prove it's adherence to progress
slve principles.
| Just at this moment when it should
concern itself wholly with the ques-
tion of how best to serve the people
who have given it a tentative lease of
power, the democracy in action is
harrassed by doubt how to win the
next election. The public is concern
ed with the debate as to which Of sew
eral good men is to go to the bridge;
the observer anxious for the safe
passage of progressive legislation is
more concerned with the quality and
amount of the coal in the bunkers,
the strength of the bulkheads, and
the sea- -worthiness of the trust barn
acled bottom. While the voyager
should sing merrily, let him also
carry life preserver.

of million dollars, as the result of a
tornado which swept through this

The towns hardest hit are Antler,
West Hope, Soutes, Sherwood, Mo-

vicinity alone. Hundreds of build
ings were destroyed.
The storm first struck Antler then
veered to the south and west. Effects
of the tail end Of the disturbance are
