Petitions Cause Worry.

Pierre, March 2l,-The petition
proposition is the dominant one
politically in South Dakota just
now, and it is no unusual sight to
see some conscientious individual
trying to remember whether or
not he has already signed a peti-
ton for some other man for the
same place when one Of the peti-
tion bearers come his way. Others
do not worry about such a lit
tie thing as a legal prohibition
against any man signing more
than one petition FOR one particu-
lar office but accommodate all
who come their way by attaching
their signatures, so long as the
legal restriction carries no penal
ty with it. This is shown in this
county where the petitions. for. the
two candidates for state trea-
surer are being circulated! indus
triously. Those for Mr.. Pinckney
were out first. and while he is a
Grant county candidate, as depu
ty treasurer he has been in this
city for the past four years, and
has many friends in the county.
His petition was readily signed,
and when the petitions for Mr..
Ewart, the other candidate. wer'
presented, the bearers of his
petitions say they are securing
names which are also on the first
list presented to them. Altogeth.

At the primary election in
North Dakota last Tuesday, La

large vote. Returns from /, ,167
precincts indicated that La Fol-

least $1,000. Those precincts

Reports from these gentlemen

being ably filled by Mrs. Turner.
The banquet was a feast Of

The colors of the club being

for the banqueting parlor was
one done in green. The tables
were in the form of 2 and the
dainty green and white decora-
tions made the room a thing of
beauty and a joy-at least for
the evening. The place cards
were rs in green and white and
those of the guests were inscrib-
ed with quotations appropriate
to the individuals. It is safe to
say that no more enjoyable func-
tion has appeared on Sisseton's
social calendar for long time.
