leaders, but they have reason for their
declaration.
South Dakota is one Of the states
where the determination Of the Repuo-
lican electors to vote for the third
term candidate caused much trouble
A compromise was finally reacheo
whereby the electors remained on the
ticket under a pledge that they would
vote in the Electoral College lor
Roosevelt If their votes would prove
sufficient to elect him, while they
would vote for Taft II confronted by a
situation where they could not elect the
third party candidate. This compro-
mise has solidihed the Republican vote
and removed all chance of Wilson's
carrying the state. AS there is not the
slightest chance of Rooseyelt's receiV-
ing sufficient votes from other states
to make his election possible with the
aid OF South Dakota's five, the leaders
contend that South Dakota is as good
as carried for Taft.
Confident Of North Dakota.
They are equally confident that North
Dakota will cast its vote for Mr.. Tatt'
In the pre-conyention campaign North
Dakota was strong for Senator La Fol-
lette. Mr.. Roosevelt's treatment of the
Wisconsin Senator and the subsequent
articles of Mr.. La Toilette explaining
his treatment by the third term can
didate have been read with avidity
and Indignation throughout the state
Finally, there is no state in the Union
where the Harvester trust is more
cordially hated than in North Dakota,
and Mr.. Perkins's conduct of the
Roosevelt campaign has, according to
reports from there, proved disastrous to
the third party movement.
For a time the fact that Mr.. Taft
had advocated Canadian reciprocity
hurt in North Dakota, but this has
been largely Offset by Senator McCum-
ber's support of Mr. Taft, Mr.. McCum-
Der having been the ablest and most
energetic opponent Of reciprocity IN
Congress, and having thus endeared
himself to the North Dakota farmers.
Dixon to Lose Montana.
The Republican leaders are confident
they can carry Senator DiXon's state
for Mr.. Taft Mr.. Dixon Is unpopular
in his own state and the Democratic
tariff bills gravely menaced the mining
and allied industries of the state.
Under these conditions the leaders,
both in the state and at national head
quarters, maintain that there is no
ground for regarding Montana as even

Nebraska for Wilson.

What has been said Of Kansas is
largely true Of Nebraska. There is some
hope OF Nebraska on the part Of the Re-
publican leaders. but little faith. The
between the regular Repub-
leans and the Insurgents Is intense,
and as a consequence Governor Wilson
will receive a large Republican vote,
enough, II is feared, to carry the state
into the Democratic column, especially
as Governor Wilson has received the
strongest kind of support from William
J. Bryan.

Oklahoma Doubtful.

The Republican leaders get encourag-
ing reports from Oklahoma, but these
are largely discounted. and while they
are not willing to place the state in
the Wilson column they class it as
Doubtful" with a capital 3D."

Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico.

Arizona. Nevada and New Mexico,
with three electoral votes each, the Re
publicans contend, will be theirs on
the tariff issue, especially on the sub
jects of wool and metals. There was
CONSERVATION among the wool growers
of these states when they learned that
Congress had passed the Democratic
wool bill, a CONSERVATION which gave
way to rejoicing and gratitude when
President Taft vetoed 1t. Arizona was
deeply concerned over some Of the re-
auctions made in the metal schedule,
which would have crippled the mining
industry of the state, and from these
things the Republican leaders argue
that they are justified in putting all
three states in the Taft column.

Taft to Have South Dakota.

That Mr.. Taft will receive South Da-

majority Of the voters of that state
are for Roosevelt is the somewhat
anomalous assertion of the Republican

Republicans Count on Iowa.

In lowe the campaigning OF Sena-
tor Kenyon, a Progressive and a can
didate for reelection; the bumper crops,
the general indifference Of the farmers
to the call Of the Bull Moose, or "the
loose bull" as they say in that coun-
try. have lent encouragement to the
leaders, and 1t is believed by them that
Iowa will be found in line, casting her
thirteen votes for William Howard

LIME AND DYNAMITE
Being Used Over The County. E.
B. Barbee, OF Stephensport,
And J. E. King, Experiment
And Expect Great Results.

E. B. Barbee, of Stephensport, says
he is going to try three-fourths of an
acre in alfalfa. He will put the gro nd
in thorough order like he was fixing it
for an onion bed Then he will drill in
it 200 pounds of slack lime and l2
pounds of fertilizer, and sow it in alfal'
fla. He got this idea from the farm
train.
Mr.. Barbee has small piece of land
that was lined several years ago. He
sowed this in wheat where the lime had
been used and received double the
amount of wheat that he got on the
land where no lime was used. Mr..
Barbee says that lime keeps sage brush
from growing and he considers 1t most
valuable TO land for wheat.
J. E. King and son, of Irvington, are
using dynamite on their young orchard
of three acres. The explosion of the
dynamite loosens up the soil for many
yards around, giving the tree roots a
better opportunity to spread out than
when the hole is dug by hand.

Drinking Cup Law Easily Evaded.

Perryville, Mass, Feb. 17.-Al-
though the employees Of the Perry
mill here work in Massachusetts,
they are obliged to go into the State
Of Connecticut whenever they want a
drink Of water. This is not much Of
hardship, as the factory straddles
the State limo and the men have only
to cross the room to get from one
State to the other. A new Massa-
chusetts law forbids the use Of a
common drinking cup, so the pail
containing the drinking water is kept
in the other State
