Washington. April 5.-CorresDond-

South Dakota congressional delegation

withdrew from the race. Then. in
1906, when Senator Gamble was a can

indeed, any possible combination of
circumstances should seem to call for

there is a general feeling among reg

turn il he wants TO take it.
Mr.. Gamble soon will return to
the state. When he was asked what
part he would take III the senatorial
fight next year, he replied that be

formerly of Alexandria, who was
United States attorney for the district
of South Dakota, is credited with
senatorial ambitions and it is said be

second if he should regard the going as

The belief among South Dakota poll
ticians in Washington Is that Gov.
Frank NJ. Byrne will not be a candi-
date next year for the senate, but will
be a candidate to succeed himself in
the governor g chair, Notwithstanding
a recent report from Pierre that GER

who feel that Crawford would not
prove a strong senatorial candidate,
were trying to shape things so that the
governor would stand for the senatorial
nomination and Peter Nor beck. of Red
field, for governor. In any event, it
seems, Mr. Norbeck has been picked by
the bull moose element of the party for
its candidate for governor whenever
Byrne's service as governor shall end.
However, Lieut.. Gov. Z. l.. Abel APP

the Byrne succession.
Candidates for the lower house of
congress will depend in some instsnc-

senate. For instance, in the event of

Today for nearly eleven months of the
year hundreds of students are in daily

fifty teachers is necessary for the
many classes.
Twenty years ago teachers were Sc
cured entirely by correspondence. To-
day the head of the school spends
weeks in personal interviews with
applicants, sitting and winnowing, I'M

trained specialists in their lines are

the growth has been tremendous.
Starting with one small building, more
than ample for the needs o. that day,
buildings and departments have been
added until now there is an invest

HELPING THE FARM WOMAN

Attention is called to recent inves-
LEGATIONS of the department of agricul-

woman ON the farm. The secretary

most important economic factor in
agriculture; that on her rests largely
the moral and mental development Of

ant questio. Of whether the secsad

ascertain the fields in which farm wo-
men desire specific assistance, q letter
Of inquiry was addressed to the hosse-
wives Of 5000 farmers in all ths
counties Of the United States. This
letter asked no questions and left ev-
cry woman free to discuss any need
which occurred to her. Analyses Of
these letters, as far as time has PEI
mitted. already show that women want
help in practically every phase of
home management. Many express fear
Of the results of overwork on their
children and themselves. The diff
culties of securing domestic help are
emphasized. Many ask the department
to prove to the man that their work
is worth something in dollars and
cents. These letters have been ex-
tremely valuable in suggesting con
structive methods Of aiding the woman
on the farm. Analysis Of the letters
will be completed and effort made to
satisfy requests for assistance which
lie properly within the department
province.
