aberdeen, S. D.-The first applica-

TO be chosen at party primaries may
be at Bowdle, S. d. Postmaster I'll.
a. Mason of Bowdle has notified j.
w. Parmley, republican county chair
ma for Edmunds county, of his res
ignation, and under the provisions OF
the Richards law, the republican
patrons OF the office must hold a
primary and vote on the man to be
recommended TO President Taft as
Mason's successor. AS it is scarcely
likely a republican appointment at
this time can be gotten through, the
democrats are also expected to hold
q primary to recommend a candidate
for the place, to he appointed in the
event that the vacancy is not filled II
