ROOSEVELT PRINCIPLES.

Wessington Springs. S. Do. l..
Branson, of Mitchell, candidate for
the republican nomination for cong

here ON Wednesday night before
a large anC- enthusiastic audience.
The hall was packet TO the ut

meeting ever held here.
Mr. Branson, who has been re-
ceived most heartily throughout the
district becay.se of the straightfor-
ward declarations he has made for
progressive principles, was especially
welcomed in this community on this
account. A characteristic paragraph
from his address follows:
In the very first speech i made in
this campaign and in every one since
that time, ] declared squarely for
what was known as progressive prin-
ciples or Roosevelt principles. In
|this j have stood just where ! have
stood ever since the progressive move
ment began. | have declared in every
one of my addresses specifically for
popular government as put forward

for q downward revision of the tariff
for the direct election of United Stat
es senators and for the destruction OF
trusts by incarcerating those who or
ganize or maintain them into prison
| for as long as life terms. | have de-
clared myself ready and willing to
submit to the recall if | did not stand
| squarely with the cause of the peo-
| pie. Every one who knows my past
record knows that these are my prin-
ciples and that / will stay by then
whoever is nominated at the Chicago
convention, and whether there is any
other Roosevelt republican in con
gress or not"
Mr.. Branson is much elated by the
reception he has been given every
where and his friends are predict
ing his nomination by a vote of two
to one. He will go from here to
Woonsocket and will speak in Siou,

Aberdeen, S. D.-With the lie
thrown in his teeth and the public

on the platform and answer his every
statement, George w. Egan engaged
in word duel last evening in Bottch-
els hall when John d. Deets, state
commissioner of immigration rose in
his seat and branded him a liar.
Egan had said that sfter the cleo
tion there came to the governor a
man who told him that he must have
some pie because he helped elect
Mr. Vessey, and then declared:
This man is a discredited, dis
charged federal official, John ID.

Immediately came the words from
the audience:
My name is Deets. You're a
liar"
Immediately there WIS an uproar.
Cries from Egan cohorts to put the
commissioner out.of the building and
cries to Mr.. Deets to ego on did not
tend to quiet the tumult. On the floor
Mr.. Deets was at disadvantage and
could not be heard Egan on the plat

arms secured the attention of the
crowd passed to another phase of the
question and declared that the legis-

of commissioner of immigration the
sum of $16,5lO for the year, telling
his hearers that he got his authority
from ''the little black book" from
which he quoted assiduously.

Deets. '"rhe legislature appropriate
I'd $17,500 and for two years.
"All right" replied Egan, but the
state treasurer tell me that you pay
only $40 taxes"
Deets Asks for Square Zeal.
Mr. Deets then secured the atten-

these charges and you refuse to let

CRAWFORE WOULD LIMIT TERM
OF INFERIOR FEDERAL JUDGES

Washington. D. Senator Craw-
ford, of South Dakota, in speech
in the Senate today advocated con-
stitutional amendment to fix the
term of judges of the inferior courts
at ten years. Shortening of the
terms, he said, would enable the
people to refuse to re-elect un-
worthy and incompetent judges. He
contended that the irritation and
uneasiness of the people and their
hospitality to the courts are directed
at these inferior federal courts.
