Vile and Mayor Howard, of Lead,
the latter controlled politically as
well as industrially by the Home
stake Mining company, signed the
call. They are typical republicans of
the state stalwart regime.
They have not changed and do not
intend to change their standards.
They simply hope to duplicate and
dupe and fool a few, and impress
people who may not see through the
transparency into pulling their chest
nuts from the FIRE.
I'VE have become accustomed to
stalwart a meetings in South Dako-
ia and they do net brighten anybody
any more. They have a right to en-
JOY themselves and to repeat the pro.
gram they have followed for the past
six years. There is no law against
it. The Richards primary cannot
prevent voluntary assemblies.
They bind nobody but themselves
and they will be defeated again this
year and next just the same. Anyone
visiting the state capitol at Pierre can
not bat notice the complete change in
the personnel during the past few years.
The old crowd wants to get back, of
course.
Last year, realizing for the first
time they could not hope to regain
control of the party in South Dakota,
they resolved to defeat it and recoup
themselves out Of the wreck. They
failed again. Next. they attempted to
overthrow the decision of the people at
the primaries, and defeat senior Sterl-
ing. They failed again. Now. by soft
and honied phrases they are attempt

THE republican party in South Da-
kota is progressive. These stall warts
have no power to elect an organization

will beware Of Greeks bearing gifts.

with jackson, Baskerville and the
Homestake will put the men who try 1t
ont Of business. Mark that predic-
tion."

Top, Or. w. w. Fraser, Mrs. Dorothy
c. SIingsby and the baby in the case.
Bottom, Lieutenant SIingsby and
Lillian Anderson Certain.


San Francisco. Nov. 6.-That the
confession OF DR.. w. w. Fraser, chief
witness of those attacking the legiti-
macy of the child said to have been
born to Mrs. Dorothy C. Slingsby. and
heir to a 100000 estate, that he
had received $500 for falsifying the
child's birth certificate, will destroy the
case OF the Slingsbys is the opinion of
many who have followed the case.
The story told by DIR. Fraser and
corroborated by Mrs. Hattie Blain. a
nurse who attended Mrs. Slingsby
during her illness here in 1910, is as
follows:
Mrs. Slingsby came to San Fran
cisco in the late summer of 1910 from
her home in Vancouver, B. c. In
September Of that year she gave birth
to a stillborn child. She then got in
touch with DR.. Fraser, who in turn
knew of a young girl in Santa Rosa
named Lillian Anderson, who had
given birth to an illegitimate child.
The Anderson girl wished to. dispose
of her baby and arranged through DR..
Fraser to sell it for $50. She did not
even know the name of the woman to
whom the child was sold.
Mrs. Blain declared that Mrs. Sings
by burned her own babe, concealing
the whole transaction from Lieutenant
Slingsby, her husband. Mrs BIain ad-
mits having assisted in the crime.
DIR. Fraser confesses that he received

ton into the case made by the Call
fornia state board of health. At the
time Mrs. Slingsby testified that the
child was her own. This may open the
way for an indictment for perjury
against her.
The testimony of the girl who is
said to have given birth to the baby
now claimed by the Slingsbys has not
been secured. A year ago she married

setting forth that the substituted child
was the legitimate child of Mrs.
Slingsby.
The present investigation is being
made by the British vice consul here,
and upon his decision will rest the
disposition of 100000 estate in
England. Lieutenant Slingsby himself
has been here and testified that he
believes the child to be his. It is said
the baby resembles Mrs. Slingsby.
