LIFE IN MEXICO
Experiences of a South Dakotan
Little Love of
Country

Brookings, July 29.-Mryick n.
Bodies. a refugee from Mexico, who
was raised in South Dakota. after an
absence of seven years in the southern
republic, has returned to the state and
will visit for q time with his mother.
Mrs. Lydia j. Bolles, a we'll known
resident of this city. Bolles, with
other Americans. was for. some time
besieged by Mexican rebels in u
building belonging to a mining com
pany at Monterey and only escaped
with their lives.
During his residence in Mexico,
Bodies was assistant superintendent OF
the American Smelling and Refining
%comrany's plant at Monterey. On
account of the unsettled condition OF
the country, the mine was closed down
and the Americans in the city decided
to make their way back to the United
States as o Is opportunity offered.
The rebel army had closed about Mon
terey and there were frequent battles
between them and the federal forces
in the town. Matters finally became
80 desperate that Bodies and q number
of others took refuge in one of the
mining company's buildings. where
they were closely besieged. They
offered a desperate resistance. for all
the refugees fully believed that IL they
were captured by the rebels they would
be %summarily shot.
When things had apparently reached
a critical juncture, there was . re.

STATE POLITICS


Sioux Fails, July 20. Although the
next statewide primary election, to be
held the third Tuesday in March, is
about eight months distant. the ball
for the next campaign in South Da-
kota was set rolling by the get to.
gether republican mass meeting held
in Sioux Falls last Friday. AS the
result Of the meeting it is expected
that candidates for the republican
nomination for the office of governt r
and other Offices will make their an.
nouncsmeuts without delay. so pre-
liminary work can be commenced at
an early day. Iuasmuch as county
primary elections are to be held undtI
the new state primary law in Decem
Der. the campaign will increase in
activity as December approaches.
None Of the candidates may do real
hard work during the hot weather,
but there is much in a preliminary
way that can be done in advance of
the active part of the campaign. which
will open the latter part of September
or early 10 October and be prosecuted
from that time almost without inter
mission until the statewide primary
election in March.
The fact that the mass meeting of
republicans held in Sioux Falls CHANGED
to be called by a committee made up
largely or almost wholly of stalwart re
publicans caused the suspicion to be-
aroused among some of the more rad
ical and more timid progressive repub-
licans that there was a "nigger in the
| woodpile," and that the stalwarts had
~ulterior motives in calling the meeting.
But the mysterious niger was not
in evidence during the meeting, and
many progressives were ~agreeahly
surprised when the meeting adhered to
the purpose get forth in the call, not
to advance the interests of any in-
dividual who may come before the
voters of the state az "a candidate for
Office. 1t was with the intention of
adhering to this purpose that the mass
meeting. by a vote which was prac.
tically unanimous, refused to indorse
the administration of Gov. Byrne or
the work of the South Dakota dele.
CATION IN congress.
The mass meeting and the action
taken in appointing a committee to Sc
cure an enrolment Of the republican
voters Of the state will arouse the re.
publicans OF the state to the impor.
lance Of having their names registered
as voters as required by the new
primary election law. Those who do
not register before the evening of Octo-
her 81 next will not be permitted to
vote at the county primary elections
which are to be held in December.
Thousands Of voters had supposed that
il they did not register they could
swear In their votes at the December
primary elections in the counties, but
such IL not the case.

licxns to be held at Huron on Septem.

years residence ia Mexico, became
thoroughly familiar with the native
character. and states that no people
in the world have a greater respect
for force than the Mexicans and that
they would not have the heart to ag-
g~Tessively resist u powerful country

they have little love OF country.

In view of the representations
made at the recent conference of the

than 5Oe per acre: the payment of
the balance Is to be deferred and
added to the last installment ON The
water right application. For those
who have already paid the charges
due a corresponding credit is TO be
given on the next annual installment
or they may have the credit applied
to the operation ana maintenance
charges now due.
No person is to receive the benefit
of this concession on Dec / next who
has not paid all the amounts due for
operation and maintenance and who
has cultivated less than one-half Of
the irrigable area of his land or not
less than acres for each full irri-
CATION season since water was first
available for the land.
1t is provided further in the case
of those who are now delinquent and
subject to cancellation that IL they
make payment of the operation and
maintenance charges for irrigating
their land, no steps will be taken to-
ward cancellation until December / ,
1913.
Secretary Lane announces further
that he will urge upon congress the
passage of some act giving a further
extension of time for the payment of
the building charges under proper
limitations and conditions.
