An Enjoyable Afternoon

Friday afternoon, June twenty
eighth, about thirty five ladies' of the
Canton Methodist Aid Society gather
ed at the home of Mrs, Roy Millage
where they we're royalty entertained
by the Dayton Society. Rev. and
Mrs. Bigger of Harrisburg were pre-
sent and the afternoon passed all too
swiftly.
The Dayton Ladies served a grand
supper, 1T would be much easier to
give list OF the articles that they
did not have than to number the
delicious things that were placed be-
fore their guests.
After supper every one was highly
entertained by several beautiful songs
which were sung by Mrs. Abbott and
Mrs. Holytield. Reverend Bigger gave
short talk and after he had told a
story or two, of course Rev. Hunt had
thought of one and was ready to tell
it to the audience.
Mrs. Millage, President Of the Day
ton aid was called upon and she told
of the fine work that the ladies of
that community were accomplishing.
After her story was completed Mrs.
Nicholson, president of the Canton
aid was given the floor and she told of
all the ways In which the Canton
ladies were planning on making money
and in behalf of the Canton ladies, she
thanked their Dayton friends for the
excellent ENTERTAINMENT which they
had received.
Mrs Hunt was silent until mission
ary work was mentioned but In short
time after that subject was spoken Of
she was on her feet ready for good
talk.
1t was not long until the hour hand
of the clock pointed toward seven
The delicious supper which was
mentioned before, was eaten, the
speeches had been made and after the
Canton ladies had attempted to tell
their Dayton friends OF the enjoyable
time they had had, the autos and
other rigs were brought forth and the
Canton ladies started home.

broadened vision he now has, had he
had the experience the years since
have brought him, no doubt but he
would have entered the door through
! which his party marched tri&mph-
antly in 1892 only to be betrayed bv
com bination of greed and cowardice
in congress- He would have denounc-
ed the party perfidy and dishonor,'
have burned with his elequence the
''tive Judas Iscariots of the Senate, +"
and called upon the democrats to re-
new the declaration of 1892, which
had attracted so many republicans as
to give the democrats control OF the
country when they we're yet held re-
sponSible for the civi war.
Instead, awed by the panic of '93,
scared by the charge that it was due
to the democratic tariff declaration,
he entered the other door and led his
party in an assault upon the 'money
power" Unwisely, as thousands of
democrats thought and the country
decided, he chose as his line of attack
the free coinage of silver at a fat
ratio. He lost, not only the election
but, what was more serious in later
Judgment, in the soundnesS of his
economies, in his craftsmanship
True, his objective then, as now, was
the curbing of the predatory interests
operating through the money and
credit power whose Capitalization the
subsequent years have only accentuat-
ed.
The years between have broadened
his vision and mellowed his radicafism
In the brighter light he saw clearly
the true course of his party. He saw
as Roosevelt had seen, that the re-
publican party had become intensely
material. He saw that his party
must be made progressive. To that
task he threw his ability, reinforced
by his growing popularity Stimuli
taneously an element in the republi-
can party espoused the progressive
policies. Bryan grasped the opening
thus given him. He went to Balti-
more determined to force his party to
be progressive. And he reaped a
great victory.
This victory is what menaces Taft
republicans. They have to face the
wrong way by reason Of the nomina-
tion of Taft at the very time the dem
ocrats are faced the right way. The
situation calls for the high courage Of
South Dakota in all republican states.

respect their neighbors will have for
them.
South Dakota republicans nominat-
ed five we'll known republicans Tor
electors. They did not instruct them
to vote for or against Mr.. Taft. Ihey
also declared, "we hereby reat11rm our
allegiance to the republican party.
Do the stalwarts object to such
allegiance? If they do yield such
allegiance and wish to maintain stand
ing in the party and representation
for their counties in future conVen-
tions, it is up TO them to show their
intentions at the polls.-Si9ux City

An Ice House on the Farm.

Although it would seem the ex-
ception. it is more often the rule that
farmers do not prepare to put up Ice
on their farms In the winter for sum-
mer consumption. sMany who use
abundant ice in season haul it year
after year from town, while a little
trouble when the ice is suitable
thickness on a creek or clearwater
pond in cold weather would give them
a lasting supply and avoid any SEM
blance of stinting when it is so badly
needed during the hot months.
The crudest kind of a building
which will keep out the sun and
warm rains will do for an fceh0uSe.
The ice can be packed into this build
ing in sawdust or marsh or swamp
hay and kept satisfactorily. Farmers
who can afford it are building con-
crete icehouses at some expense, but
for the farmer who is not yet ready to
make such an Investment, a protected
shack or cave or pit in the ground
will answer the purpose. Ice can be
gathered and stored at a time when
there is not much else demanding the
farmers time.
Ice on the farm Is godsend to the
women who can keep the dairy pro-
ducts so much better and preserve
the meats and other foods. A low
temperature is absolutely necessary
for preserving milk for long periods
and the use of ice will facilitate the
work greatly. The icehouse should
be drained so that water from melt
ing Ice will run off. Use . covering
on all sides Of the Ice Of about IL
inches of sawdust or twice that
thickness of hav.

A young lady in Canton holds the
high water mark for being tender
hearted. One day last week as she
was passing the Oheman barber-shop
with bouquet Of flowers in her hand
she noticed the sign hanging in the
window which read, "Whiskers Dyed
Here" she hesitated but a moment
then entered the hair-store and timid-
ly asked Bubbles" Gray, one of the
artists who stays there, If he would
put the flowers on his casket for her.

We again bowed our heads in deep
sorrow when we heard of the death of
our dearly beloved Editor and friend
Mr.. Arthur Linn. 1t came not as a
shock nor surprise as it had been
expected for long time.
Thus the Lord has taken from our
midst good and noble veteran who
has lived long and useful life, a life
full Of good deeds to his family and
fellow men. May the memory of this
beautiful life be a solace to the
serrowing ones left behind.

join In sympathy with Mrs. Linn in
her great sorrow.

An Irrepressible Conflict.

The question that will not down
this year is that Of tying the hands
of men nominated as electors. 1t is
up In every republican state and in
most of them rage is up with it.
Taft republicans want all electors
put up by the party pledged to vote
for hin and him only, and where TAFT
men control they will probably have
their way.
Roosevelt republicans firmly be-
lieve that Mr.. Roosevelt is entitled to
have electors nominated pledged or
instructed for him and where Roose-
velt men are in the majorit ty Roose-
velt electors will undoubtedly be
nominated and elected.
This means that in most of the
sure republican states Roosevelt cleo
tors will be chosen-North Dakota,
South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas
make line of such states and illus
trate the situation very clearly.
In states where neither Taft men
nor Roosevelt men control decisively
there must be struggle, with the
probabilities on the side of two cleo
toral tickets being put in the field.
This is condition, not theory
and republicans who believe the suc'
cess of the party worth while must be
in frame of mind to consider The
Tribune's suggestion that Mr.. Taft's
name shall be withdrawn.
Roosevelt's name isnot formally be-
fore the people yet and it would seem
to be quite within the possibilities to
appeal successfully to him for the
party sake. He has said he will 'give
heartiest support to any other pro-
gressive candidate who may be chos-
en-" If Taft had said as much the
task would seem easy.
Apropos of the situation, an extract
from the Kansas City Star will be in
teresting as showing the irrepres-
sibleness of the conflict:
The Taft managers in Kansas insist
that it would not be honorable for
the presidential electors in Kansas to
vste for Roosevelt IL they are elected
as republicans. The lola Register
grows red in the face in it's earnest
contention that the people of Kansas
cannot nominate new candidate
for the repu blican party
But there is nothing to prevent the
people of Kansas from voting to elect
the kind of presidential electors
they want to represent them in the
electoral college. If the voters select
candidates favorable to Roosevelt at
the primary and elect them in Nov
ember there is nothing in the stat
utes or then costitution to prevent
their voting for Roosevelt.
The contention of the Taft managers
that such procedure would force
the Taft electors to run as ''inde-
pendents'' is no part of the issue so
far as the Kansas voters are concern
ed. They are interested only in yot-
ing for their choice for president.
AS to how Mr.. Taft's electors are to
get on the ticket, that is purely a
matter for the Taft managers to worry
about.
1t would have been more timely if
that question had been settled by
them at Chicago when the national
committee was making all the other
arrangements to steal the nomination
cannot intervene to prevent the peo-
pie of Kansas from voting for the
man they wish to see elected to the
presidency. Sioux City Tribune.

WHY SHOULD WE?

Editor Leader:-Will you kindly
give me space to air my feelings a
little in your paper?
Some time ago | saw a statement
from Waldport that the south end
of the county would go Progressive.
Why? Leaving out all other rea-
sons the present forest system
should be a bar to any Bull Moose
sentiment in Lincoln county. 1t is
we'll known that the Roosevelt-Pin-
chot combination established the
forest reserves. 1t is also we'll
known the amount of harm it has
done to Lincoln county. of the
! hundreds of settlers that have been
refused homes, and of trouble and
expense that other have been put to
before they got a deed to land
that they had paid for under the
homestead law. Then there are
cases where the forest officers have
tried to confscate decided land just
out of pure cussedness. Chief
Forester Graves in an article in
The Saturday Evening Post stated
that the Forest Service was help
ing settlers to get homes in the
National forest. Such mistatements
as these are read and believed by
thousands in the East.
A good many petitions have been
circulated asking for relief from
this outrage. Several of them
were presented to Ine and l refused
to sign them because believed they
would do more harm than good,
and still think that they did.
Now comes the time to strike a
blow at the foundation Of this
policy. Lincoln county gave ma
jority to Roosevelt at the primaries
in April, largely through enthus-
iasm. Can we afford to bind the
fetters of this forest system still.
tighter by voting for him in No
vember? do not believe we can.
What can our Congressman do to
get justice in this matter if we put
the stamp of approval on this forest
policy?
l woud like to hear from some of
my Progressive friends on this MAJ
