BILLS KIND OF RECALL


Sioux City News: Mr.. Taft goes
Mr.. Roosevelt one better. The latter
says he's for recall of court deci sions.
The former recalls both court and jury
decisions brazenly constituting himself
''mob" of one.
At tremendous cost, and by the dis
tinguished services of Francis j Henry
Willard Jones of Portland, Ore, was
convicted of land frauds. Jones was in
with Senator Mitchell and others in
stealing government lands. and jury
convicted him.
Now Taft pardons Jones uncondition-
ally, on the ground that improper meth
ods had been resorted to in the trial.
OF course, the judge who permitted
the improper methods to slip through
isn't recalled in fact, although theoreti-
cally he is.
Mr.. Taft's progressiveness in the
matter of recall is almighty savage. 1t
includes letting all the guilty 60 free.
But, pshaw! It's just Bill looking at
momentous matter in Bill Taft's big,
open-hearted, idiotic way.

The Dawson County Gazette in en-
deavoring to keep up with advance

independent progressive policies.
The publisher of the Gazette, says:
The Gazette belongs to tho pro-
gressiye portion of both or either
party.
"The progressive party includes a
portion of both the democrat and re-
publican parties.
1.-The time has come when tho peo-
pie should vote for men and not for

vocate both democrats and rspubli-
cans but it will always advocatespro-
gressive men and progressive prin-
ciples.
There are but two parties in ex-
istence-the progressives and the con-
servative or standpatter all other
parties are but modification of one
of these two."
In becoming an independent paper
the Gazette may lose the support OF
some democrats and may not gain
the support of any of the republican
leaders but the management will at
least have the satisfaction of advo.

told President Taft over the long dis
tance telephone this forenoon that up
on first roll call in the convention will
result Taft SIT, LaFollette 36, Cum
minis 10. Roosevelt 455.
The Roosevelt leaders are working
directly with the delegates and declare
that they will have at least 700 votes
on this roll call, and that Taft will not
have over 200.
Everyone here now admits that the
national committee will seat practically
all of the Taft delegates.
William Flynn of Pennsylvania is
leading the Roosevelt forces. He an
llounced today that he will try and cap
ture the credentials committee and
through it seat the delegates who have
been thrown out by the national COM
mittee. If this fails they will 60 ahead
with a separate convention in the same
hall, nominate Roosevelt for president
and Governor Johnson of California for
vice president, demand recognition on
the official ballots of the progressive
states as the real republican ticket.

WORK OF A BOGUS TICKET

In some comments upon the visit
of Senator LaFollette to Doland. the
Times Record of that place, says:
Had his NaFollette 's) name been
left off the Roosevelt ticket, he would
have won the primaries in this state
on Tuesday.
From Cotton, a MinnehRha county
town of 400 inhabitants, comes the
information that dozen LaFollette
men in that place voted the 'LaFol-
lette- Roosevelt trick ticket that the
Sutherland Basford machine placed
on the BALLOT in opposition to the
wishes of Mr.. LaFolletto.
"The dozen who so voted not only
lost their votes, but contributed to
the nomination of man they do not
want nominated.

would have carried South Dakota by
al arge plurality but for the success

by coterie of enemies who pretend
ed that they were for him.
If any more nasty game in politics
has ever been played in South Dakota
the historian has overlooked it.

LITTLE SHORT OF A FARCE

Mitchell Clarion: Each year
demonstrates more and more clearly
that the primary election law is
farce as it now stands. 1t serves
only one purpose and that is for the
minority party to vote in the primar-
les of the majority party and assist in
the selection of weak and inferior
candidates in the hope of loading
them upon the party with the hope of
defeating them at the election in No
vember. Scores of we'll known demo
Gratis violated their honor at Tues
days election by subscribing as re-
publicans and calling for republican
ballots in order that they might force
nomination. The spirit of tho pri-
mary law is all right but the abuse of
it is shame and a disgrace to the
state, and makes campaign cost q
candidate almost a fortune to secure
nomination. Despite the fact that
the primary law requires the voter to
sign a statement declaring his party
affiliations, that he is q member of
the party whose ballot he is asking
for and that he intends to support the
nominees of that party at the general
election in November, many demo
Gratis who would not vote for re-
publican on bet at the November
election, called for republican bal.

1t is generally conceded that year
which brings high water in the Mis-

plentiful supply of moisture for crop
raising in the Missouri valley. Last

worthy of notice.

near the top of the banks. and even
at this stage Of the June rise, it
