 '"The cause of government by the people the world over has been mater ially checked by the disgraceful brawl which terminated in a bedlam.

REGISTER OF DEEDS

TO my friends Of Brookings County,
greeting:
Owing to the fact that we are kept
constantly employed with the duties
of the office, it is going to be almost
impossible for me to get out and see
each one of you personally. So take
this method of saying to each and
everyone of my friends, that l am a
candidate for reelection to the office
of Register of Deeds. l have served
Is months of my first term, and dur
ing that time have paid into the
County Treasury the sum of $699.70
over and above the expenses of the
office, including the salary of myself
and deputy; and not n cen has it
cost the county for extra clerk hire,
but myself and deputy have done the
entire amount of work.
Now, if the tax payers of Brookings
county feel l have made good, and
that l am deserving a second term, l
can assure you that | shall continue
to do in the future as l have done in
the past, viz. devote my whole time
and attention to the details Of the
office, and continue to conduct the
same to the best of my ability, and to
the best interests of my constituents.
Thanking you one and all for past
~favors, and in anticipation Of your
hearty cooperation and Endorsement
of my candidacy at the June primar-
les, l am,
Yours to please,
E. F. BAGLEY,

WASHINGTON NEWS

(From Our Washington Correspondent
Keen disappointment Is felt over
the fact that the House and Senate
conference committee have been I'M
able to agree upon the three-year
homestead bill-a matter Of great i'm
portance to the western states. There
is no lack of determination among the
members from the west to push this
important legislation, but where the
two houses are at loggerheads, the
prospect for actual results are very
much obscured, and while the friends
of the measure have not relaxed their
efforts, yet there is 10 question but
what they feel somewhat blue over
the prospect of action of the present
session of Congress.
An anxious office holder was re-
monstra.i ing recently in Washington
because of the delay in receiving an
appointment which he had been told
would be given him. His congress
man said: Now don't get impatient
Just wait until we can get the Presi-
dent to stand still for a minute, and
we will have you fixed out all right"
The advice illustrates very we'll the
feverish condition the campaign has
brought about, not only SO far as it
affects the President himself but 1t
can practically be applied in the same
ann to nearly every branch or de-
partment Of the government.
One of the newest members of the
Fl use is Mr.. Sloan Of Nebraska, and
he has already obtained positive no
tons regarding the practices that are
in vogue in the manner of effecting
legislation, and on the floor Of the
House the other day he declared:
II am personally as p~rejudiced against
stillborn speeches as I am against
caucus canned legislation" In his opin-

~MONOGRAMS AWARDED

The last number of the Collegian
overlooked the presentation Of mono
grams to the 1911 football men which
occurred at the chapel April Goth, in
connection with the regular chapel
exercises. During the past years it
has been customary to present every
man who has played in a cham
.pionship game with a monogram
sweater regardless of whether the
player had won such a monogram
in previous years or not. How
ever, this year it was decided to
inauguerate a new practice. All play
ers who played in a championship
game was awarded with a "B" certi-
ficate. The following men received
such a certificate: Pence, Bibby,
Lockhart, Kremer, Stearns, r. Jensen,
+. Jensen, Catlett, Caldwell, Lynch,
Johnson, Lynch and Treacy. In ad-
dition to this it is the ruling Of the
Board Of Control that men who win
their "B" for the first time shall re-
ceive a monogram sweater. The
sweaters this year are blue with q
large, standard block "B" in yellow.
The sweaters are Of exceptional quail
ity and the men who were fortunate
enough to receive them We're delight
ed to say the least. Catlett, Caldwell
Treacy, Lynch and F. Jensen were
the fortunate ones to receive each a
sweater Another new and novel fea-
ture of the new ruling is that each
senior football man receive a gold
football to be worn as a watch charm.
This will be the final and best token
which the college will give to its
football men and it's value and arts
tic beauty is such as to make 1t a
cherished memento to all those who
receive it. The seniors who received
these charms were Bibby, Pence,
Stearns, Jensen and Johnson.
The awards were presented by
President Slagle in behalf Of the fac
ulty and students and he praised the
merits OF the 1911 football team and
told of the high regard in which the
members Of that team are held by the
faculty and student body. AS each
player received his award he was
greeted with the loud applause Of the
assembled students. All in all it was
a very impressive ceremony, one
which will be remembered for many
years by all present.

VERMiLLION'S DISTINGUISHED
VISITOR

Judge Loomis S. Gull, of Hot Springs
candidate for governor of South Da-
kta on the republican ticket, was visit
ing with friends here from Monday I'M
til Wednesday of this week. This and
other points in the southeastern part
of the state are included in the timer
airy Of the second section of his can
v~assing tour, n that before June 4
is designed to include every county
and practically every town in South
Dakota. The first section of his cam
paign route embraced much of the
northern half of the first congressional
district, and the encouraging reception
accorded him at every place he visited
together with numerous and sincere
assurances of support, including very
many from unexpected sources, all
combine to render the outlook for his
complete success at the primary cleo
ton as bright and promising as could
be asked for. Most certainly his well
come here was as generous as it al
spontaneous. He met several hun
dreds of our city and county people.
and he not only favorably impressed
each one by his kindly, winning, mag
netic manner, his u~ndisguised sincerity
of purpose and quiet yet effective intel
ligent poise, but he won their support,
their votes, if you please-as we'll as
their admiration for the man and can
didate. Were a Gull club to be organ
lied in Vermillion this evening, it is
fairly safe to say its membership would
well-nigh include every man, woman
Wherever Judge Gull goes, he is sure
to win loyal and lasting friendships.
His pleasing. even p-repossessing, per-
| sonality Is not all there is in his favor;
he has a cultured and judicial mental
temperament; and no one once meet
ing him can entertain a doubt that
were he chosen governor of this state
his administration of affairs would be
inspired by a determination based sole
ly upon integrity and consciousness.
Able and upright, OF long and most
creditable official experience, endowed
with wisdom, courage and rare execu-
tive talent. Judge Cults candidacy is
commencing itself o and more to
the thoughtful consideration OF the
people Of this state. He is growing
in great favor AZ the campaign pro-
crosses. This being the case, 1t fol-
lows that his rivals in the race are los
ing ground In corresponding ratio.
From all we a see. hear and Judge,

is the father Of one Of the laws CuStiss
has the unadulterated nerve to stand
up before the audience and claim. Mr..
Atwood finally secured the floor and in
a very few words explained his posi-
ton, while Ira stammered, stamped
and stumbled around on the stage and
it was amazing how quickly Ira chang
ed the subject and how careful he was
during the remainder Of the speech.
Curtiss is far from being a smart
man or even one Of ordinary intelli-
gence, as was proven by his speech
and arguments. In his attack on the
press he told barefaced lies and yeri-
fed them himself before he was
through with the argument. In his at
tack on the press of the state he said
that any newspaper man in the state
could be bought" with a little graft
and shortly afterward contradicted his
statement by showing the audience
checks that had been returned to him
from all but four newspapers which he
had attempted to buy with a little
Surely the actions of four
hungry" editors in the state is not
a fair example to draw his deduc-
tons from in judging the balance of
them, especially when all but four of
checks were returned to him
untouched and shows that he has lied
deliberately to the audience, with in
tent 20 deceive.
In all, Curtiss made a very bad i'm
preston here, especially by his found.
ering remarks on different topics,
which shows that he is not a well
posted man and made more votes for
than Burke himself could have
done had he addressed the audience.
Curtiss is not taken seriously by the
people of this district and a man who
has the interests of the state at heart
will not cast a vote for a man of Cur
tlss' calibre or vocabulary. South Da-
kota is not going to send a man to
congress who makes use of the rough
language to emphasize his speech
when it has thousands of citizens who
are intelligent enough to get along
with the plain English language.
