in hot passion. the other in heartless
cold blood; the one lasted mere months,
the other lasted a thousand years; the
one inflicted death on ten thousand
persons, the other upon hundred
millions; but our shudders are all for
the horrors of the minor terror so to
speak; whereas, what is the horror of
swift death by the axe compared with
lifelong death from hunger, cold, in
suit, cruelty and heartbreak? What
is swift death by lightning compared
with death by slow fire at the stake?
A city cemetery could contain the cof-
fins filled by that brief terror, which
we have all been so diligently taught
to SILVER at and mourn over, but all
France could hardly contain the cot
fins filled by that older and real ter
ror which none of us has been taught
to see in it's vastness or pity as it de-
serves"

MCGEE ALSO IN
McNULTY'S BOAT
QUESTION WHETHER OR NOT. AS
JUDGE, HE Is BARRED FROM
MAKING RACE FOR L. $.
SENATE

Rapid City, S. D,-since the an
nouncement that Circuit Court Judge
Levi MCGEE of this city was likely to
be a candidate in the March primaries
for the democratic nomination for
United States senator, there has been
much speculation as to the possibility
of his being barred by the constitution
which forbids judges from seeking
other office until the expiration OF
their term. Friends of Judge MCGEE
here maintain that Circuit Judge Nc
Nulty of Aberdeen, who is a candidate
for the republican nomination for
congress in the second district, looked
into this question thoroughly and
decided that the constitution did not
bar him. 1t is held that the resigna-
ton of the judge from the bench
would end his term and also that the
government ignored the state laws in
the selection of postmasters and that
il would hold that running for federal
positions We're not affected by the
state laws.

HOWARD TO RUN
AS INDEPENDENT

Pierre, S. D.-The first candidate
for republican nomination at the pri.
maries next spring, who has announc-
ed his policy so far as the workings
of the Richards primary act is ON
cerned. is Charles A. Howard, of Alb
.erdeen, who in his as
a candidate for United States Senator,
has declared his intention of having
his name placed in the independent
republican column, with no intention
of seeking either the majority or mi
nority proposal endorsements. How
many more will follow his lead must
develop soon, and the probabilities
from rumors are hat the independent
list Will be a long one. The majority
proposal list will be easily filled by
applicants who feel that such a po-
sition will give them a prestige which
they cannot secure as independents.
and will certainly give them the as
.sistanee of an organization. The mi
nority list may have enough appli-
cents for places to fill out a ticket.
but the only n who has announced
any desire to get upon this list so far
is r. o. Richards himself in his can
didacy for the governorship. and then
only in case the platform of that COM
is such as he desires.
