Friedrich, the 11-year-old son OF
d. b. Goodpaster. who lives on
Whites Branch In the southwest
part OF the county, committed sui
eide April 30th. by hanging himself.
The little fellow accidentally struck
his little sister. still younger than
himself, on the head with an az in
the afternoon OF that day, inflict-
ing a painful but not serious wound.
He was sent to neighbours house
near by TO get some liniment to
battle the wound on the little girls
head, and after he returned he told
some OF the other boys that he In
tended TO kill himself. He was last
seen alive about 9 o'clock. and at
about 10 o'clock that night was
found hanging from a rafter in q
shed OF the barn with pillow line
looped around his neck. There was
an old bedstead standing in the
shed near where the boy was hang
ing and the indications were thai he
had climbed upon the headboard Of
this bedstead, tied the rope to the
beam above. looped It around his
Lsck and then jumped off.
The child had not been punished
for striking his sister,and his brood
ing over the accident is the only
cause that can be given for his act.

Especial Correspondence


Washington, April IA. President
Wilson is confronted with the ques-
ton of whether he is going to sane
ton the principle of nomination of
federal officials by the primary method
or whether he will turn this down in
favor Of the old order of things where
by federal patronage is dictated by a
few political leaders.
The question has been put up to the
president in connection with South
Dakota patronage. Thomas Ayres, Of
Pierre, and r. E. Clark, Of Huron. are
here to see the president on this sub
jec,. They have already laid state
ment OF their case before the execu-
tive.
Under the South Dakota law, the
power is taken from a few political
leaders and members of senate and
house of the dominant party to dictate
the federal patronage. They have
nothing to do with it. The postoffice
primary system is provided for AS
to other federal officers, they are
nominated by the state committee
which is an elective body made up of a
member from each county.
Coneressmans Wings Clipped.
Under this system, the voters of the
party that controls the national gov
eminent in theory at least have the
control of the federal patronage for
South Dakota in their own hands. The
congressman has his wings clipped as
dispenser of federal patronage nor
can small clique Of politicians con-
troll
The courts in South Dakota have
for the time being blocked the oper-
alton of the law in that state. How
ever. the people there have declared
for the policy and will in due time put
it into force. In the meantime,
