WAGNER A
TO BE JUDGE
ANNOUNCES HE WILL ACCEPT
NOMINATION FOR FOURTH
DISTR:C':: III IT Is TEN.
DERED HIM.

Sioux talis, $. D.-I will accept
the nomination for circuit Judge and
Will qualify for service if elected"
Il. r. Wagner, former United Stat
es district attorney and the object of
a strong movement in the second jul
dicial circuit to bring out a suitable
candidate for this important post,
thus removed all doubt as to his po-
sition in the matter.
Mr.. Wagner determined several
weeks ago that he would not seek TIE
nomination for the United States Sen
ate his friends had urged him to go
after and in connection with which he
had reluctantly permitted the use of
his name. When it became known
that the former district attorney had
prevailed upon his friends to release
him from the senatorial race, he was
approached with the suggestion thar
he accept the nomination for judge
of this circuit if it were offered him,
talk of that possibility having already
started going the rounds.
Non-Partisan judiciary.
Asked for further comments on the
subject, Mr.. Wagner said:
There is perhaps not much to be
haid now further than to state that
republicans and democrats of both
factions have urged me to become a
candidate for judge, with the idea of
having a %non-partisan judiciary in
this circuit. Undoubtedly the judi
ciary ought to be kept as far out of
politics as possible and in becoming a
csndidate, certainly, l would not
have it any other way. I am grateful
for the peronal compliment implied
in this effort to place me on the
bench, and l am perfectly willing tc
respond"
1t has been %contended for the last
two weeks by men who know him
we'll that Mr.. Wagner is the logical
solution of a troublesome problem in
this district. Those who began the
movement sounded sentiment in 9TH
er counties of this district and the
idea met with immediate favor.

"GRoUND PUPPY" FOUND;
MEANS MILD WINTER

Aberdeen, S. D.-The Rev. J.sW.
Hyslop, rector of ST. Marks church
while %shoveling coal in the basement
of the rectory, found a ground pup
ply" or hell bender" a reptile some
what resembling a lizard. Old timers
say there used to be many of those
"hell benders" in this section of the
Dakota's in the early days, but that
they always showed up in springtime
where there was a great deal of rain.
1t is said none of the creatures have
been seen in Aberdeen for many
years., and pioneers think the pre-
sence of this one means a mild, wet
winter and early spring.
