BAD reports from Kansas wheat
CROP howl the grain gamblers in
the centers where these spectators
operate. and up goes the price of
wheat a couple of cents. A great
thrill to the gamblers, no doubt,
and probably big money to those on
the inslde-but what about poor
Kansas? And vet we are told by
the big city dailies that boards of
trade grain exchanges, ETC., where
they gamble the year round on the
rise and fall of prices, are a benefit
to the producers.

WILL NAME
H PRESIDENT
Leading Newspapers Begin to
See the Outcome

Chicago Tribune: Can the people
of the United States name the next
president? Had this question been
asked of a disinterested observer
six months ago he would have ans
wered in the negative.
Six months ago it seemed certain
that the federal machine would re-
nominate President Taft on the first
ballot without consulting the rank
and file of the republican party.
Six months ago the Harmon-Un
derwood-C Champ Clark compact had
been made, and it seemed sure to
eliminate Wilson. the only candidate
for the democratic nomination who
represents popular government.
But in 6 months much has changed.
Roosevelt has become a candidate
on the platform of popular rule.
The states with direct primary laws
have smashed the federal machine
into flinders and have demonstrated
that they will name the president,
not the oficeholders.
Undoubtedly delegates nominated
without refernce to the voters or in
contravention to their wishes by
caucus, soap box primaries, pay roll
primaries. and fraud. will weld in
national convention to those dele
gates whose wills are strengthened
and arms upheld by the unmistak-
able voice of the party expressed at
the polls.
The republican party, true to its
old traditions. will obey. not attempt
to command the people.
Six months have passed. The un-
attached observer, if asked today.
would say that the people will name
the next president, and that his
name is Theodore Roosevelt.

The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1912-05-02

The democratic papers, headed by
the New York Sun. are quite sure
that republicans should not nomi-
nate Colonel Roosevelt for their can
didate. Everywhere in township,
county state and nation. democratic
leaders are very emphatic in ex-
pressing the same belief. Of course
they all have the best interest of the
republican party at heart! 1t was
Gen. Grant who said the democrats
could always be depended upon to
make some grave mistake.

Only Relief for
 American Investors
A Washington dispatch says.-

A Washington dispatch ssys:-
 Not only Senator Fall. but Senator Marcus Aurelius Smith, who, like Senator Fall. has large holdings in the southern republic, and others have warned President Tsit that nothing but indefinite anarchy and bloodsbed. [. which means ruin to American in. vestors and years of turmoil. can re- suit from the policy until recently adopted by the United States toward the Mexican revolution.
 The general opinion among the members of the Foreign Relations committee of congress, which Pre.i- dent Taft has interviewed, is that inc tervention would be most deplorsble thing, and would mean the loss of many brave American lives and vast expenditure of money, but that con- gress will not withhold its support if such a step is deemed necessary by the President.

Indians Will Also
 Receive Punishment

By long odds the largest number of criminal cases to be brought 10 the attention Of the federal grand and trial juries are those having 10 do with the illegal ssle, or giving of li- quor to Indian wsrds of the govern ment.
 h large majority of these cases the offense is committed by ignorant foreigners unfamiliar with the lave which are designed to protect the red man. many of whom are entirely un able to resist the seductive call of alcoholic stimulsnt
 How to curb the practice has been a problem in those states where h. diaps abound ever since the govern ment took over their care and well being.
 The federal grand jury which has been in session for the pas, ten days in Phoenix, hss given the matter con. siderable investigation and comes to the conclusion that one way in which the traf6c in liquor between 'he In~ disps and members Of another race may be mitigA:ed is by making the Indian jointly .lisble to punishmen. {. with the man who provide. the li- quor.
 In sccorda3ce with this delibers- tion . resolution was prepared and forwarded to Brizona's sspators and congressman with the request that its provisions be draft d in'o Jaw.
