.tHE WHOM A DREAM
HATH POSSESSED.


He whom a dream hath possessed
no more of doubling.
For mist and the blowing Of winds
and the mouthing Of words he
scorns
Not the sinuous speech of schools he
hears. but knightly shouting,
And never comes darkness down, yes
he greeteth a million morns.
He whom a dream hath possessed
knoweth no more OF sorrow,
At death and dropping Of leaves ana
fading OF suns he smiles,
For a dream remembers no past and
scorns the desire of morrow
And a dream in sea OF doom sets
surely the ultimate isles.

Huron, S. D.-Tom Ayres of tn

Huron, S. D.-Tom Ayres of the

on today looking after the interests of
the Johnson-Wilson ticket. He declar-
es that the battle for his candidates is
won and that their pluralities will be
ample to make both tickets safe. Com
menting on what he regards as the
discontinue OF the Pettigrew Wick
hem forces, he said:
"Pettigrew's campaign in South Da-
kota is now one for vindication of
personal pride. He engaged to carry
the state for Clark but he finds him
self confronted with a ~discouraging
situation. The Lee ticket for which
he traded at Mitchell is now thoro-
Chilly d%iscredited in every corner of
the state. 1t is regarded as half re-
stroyed confidence in its stability by
its frequent flops. Added to this hand
leap the second Clark ticket for del
egates, filed mainly as a protest
against the trade made at Mitchell,
is going to draw a great many votes
of democrats who are for Clark on
principle and refuse to be trifled
with. The old broken-down democrat

The Sterling Senatorial Committee
at Redfield, sent this telegram,
through its secretary. s. w. Clark,
to the Branson committee:
Dean Sterling is conducting his
campaign entirely independent and
has made no combination with any
other candidate. This committee has
respected his wishes and has made
no combination for or against Mr..
Branson OF any other candidate. Any
statement printed or other wise char9-
ing Dean Sterling or this committee
with forming II combination with any
other candidate is wholly u%nfounded
and untrue. You may give This tele-
gram the widest publicity"
Lieutenant Governor Byrne, over
the long distance telephone from
Hartford, asked The Republican to
make this statement:
Neither Mr.. Byrne non his COM
mite knew anything about this cir
cular until ii was issued and we are
not in any way responsible for it.
We are responsible only for what is
issued by our committee from rs
headquarters at Redfield."

telegram to the Rranson campaign
cOmmettee:
II have no knowledge OF any cir
cular or any combination on my
part for or against Mr.. Branson."

AS stated above, others disclaimed
most vehemently any part of the
characterized the scheme as fool
hardy. Particularly was the circular
regretted by friends OF Mr.. Byrne, for
Mr.. Byrne has maintained separate
headquarters in order not to become
involved with any other candidate and
has scrupulously avoided any such an
alliance. Some of Byrne's friends wen
went to far as to wonder whether
Sutherland was not attempting to de-
feat Byrne, because Byrne hasn't
