THREE GOOD ONES

Platte Tribune: We hope to see the
people retain Land Commissioner
Brinker for another term. He has
made a good state official, looking
after the Office to which he was elect
ed in most painstaking manner. He
is endowed with the ability to make
a good land commissioner and the
people should keep him there for
another term. State superintendent
Lawrence is another man who has
made good and who should receive
the hearty support of all at the June
primaries. The same thing is true
of State Auditor Anderson, very
capable man and very fine gentle
man to meet.

FOR SECRETARY OF STATE

| am a candidate for secretary of state
subject to the will of the republican
voters at the June primary and if elect
ed pledge myself to give the State of
South Dakota the very best service
possible during the time that | hold
such office.
Inasmuch as the secretary of state is
the custodian of the state house and
capitol grounds and is responsible for
the expenditure of the state house
maintenance fund, / sincerely believe
that he should be, during his term Of
office, Il constant resident of the city of
Pierre and give the Office his entire
attention, to which | pledge myself to
do, and believe that my experience as
assistant secretary of state for six years
has fitted me to fill this position with
honor to myself and credit to this great
state.
am in favor of President Taft's re-
nomination for two reasons: First be-
cause [ believe him to be the greatest
progressive republican available, hon
estly trying to serve the people to the
best of his ability for the uplift of
American citizenship and public good.
Second, because it is the practice, and
I believe in giving the president a
second term unless there are good valid
reasons for not doing so, which reasons
do not believe now exist, and / be-
lieve that any movement in the ranks
of the republican party that has for It's
object his defeat at the republican ma
tional convention in Chicago is an &C.
ton that will tend to impair the pro.
gress Of good government.
/ am in favor and shall support all
state officers having served one term
and who are candidates for reelection,
regardless OF which faction put them
into Office, including Congressman G.
81. Burke OF my district

Instead of smashing windows, the
women of Kansas have started on a
house to house canvas of that state
on the equal suffrage question. In
1894 equal suffrage was defeated in
Kansas by majority of 10000 but
then it was identified with the popu-
list movement and many voted against
it on this account who are now be-
lieved to look in more kindly way
on the proposition. The adoption of
equal suffrage in California has also
had its effect in Kansas, and the pre-
diction is made that the votes-for
women cause will win in the election
in Kansas this fall.

George Sees a Chance

And now there was an opening for
George In the house of commons. BY
spending a considerable amount of money
he could be elected from the Chelsea dis
tricts.
His election agent, Scruby, arranged
that for him, but told him that the pres
ent session would only last three months
and then he must have more money to be
reelected Mr.. Scruby thought that, for
present expenses. about $1,000 would be
sufficient
George had told Alice frankly that he
might want to call upon her for money
at any time. But now that the time had
arrived. he, even he. felt rather 10th to
do 1t. He knew that he could never pay
1t back.
He went down to the nearest town to
Vavasor Hall, sent for his sister Kate
and commanded her to write to Alice ask
ing for the money.
Kate refused and offered him her own
money. He would not take it.
She would write to Aunt Greenow-per-
haps she would lend 1t. All right. George
would wait two days for an answer.
The answer came. The widow Greenow
said she would see George further before
she would lend him a cent.

But Palliser did not accept the position,
although Lady Glencora begged that he
would not sacrifice himself for her. They
were completely reconciled now and they
went abroad at once and Alice went with
them.
Before Alice sailed Mr.. Grey came to
see her and renewed his offer of mar
rage, which Alice refused.
''Well, will be going over the continent
myself before long," said Grey, and
will look you up and ask you again.
