PRIMARY DATE march a
FIGHT FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR
BETWEEN CRAWFORD and BURKE
OF CHIEF INTEREST.

10 sders Of the various parties and
fsctions involved In the political battle
v lich will terminate at the primary
el 'ction on Tuesday, March "a, enter
th i. last week of the campaign confl.
de 1T o! victory over their opponents.
This feeling of confidence which pre-.
walls in the various opposing camps
foreshadows bitter disappointment to
th ,se who are losers at the primary
election, for the confidence of all the
op posing leaders appears sincere and is
based largely on reports which have
been received at campaign headqusr.
to re from workers in different parts of
tn state
Qnite naturally the fight for United
st ties senator between Congressman
B ,rke and Senator Crawford continues
to be one of the chief features of the
campaign. The supporters of Senator
C'awford express confidence In his be-
Ing renominated to the Office he now
holds, claiming that the progressive
republican vote of the state will be
p)lled solidly for him. Some of the
leaders of the Crawford forces predict
his denomination by q majority of from
$4,000 to 1900
BURKE MEN RIDICULE CLAIMS.
The leaders Of the Burke forces ridi.
cule claims of the Crawford campaign
managers that their candidate will be
renominsted, and assert with apparent
ly the utmost confidence that Congress.
man Burke already has Senator Crsw-
ford beaten and will win the republican
nomination for United States senator
by majority Of anywhere from 5000
to 1900 over Senator Crawford.
The claims Of the Burke men are
based on recent developments from all
sections of the state. They further cay
that Senator Crawford will not ct the
coming primary election receive the
votes Of the powerful Gamble element
of South Dakota republicans, who sup
ported Senator Crawford In 1908, when
he flrst was elected to the United States
senate. Even with the support Of Sen.
stor Gamble and his friends, they point
out, Senator Crawford won over Sena.

in June, 1908, by . majority of only
2,O65, the vote cast for the two republi.
can candidates for United States sena
tor at that time being: Crawford, 81, ISL
Kittridge, 33O86.
The supporters Of Congressman

would rather see him defsted than an,

their vested choir Of twenty Ave voices.
The choir has an enrolment of thirty,
but owing to school duties the younger

Prayer" Rising, they made the church

to the Lord. by Holden. Ratbburn's
duet. "God that Madest Earth and
Heaven" was sung with good taste and
feeling by Mr.. and Mrs Hedrick.
Calkins' "Te Deum Laudamus" was
delightfully."- rendered by the choir, and
was followed BY one of the evenings
treats, Verdi's "Praise Ye", trio from
Attilla, sung by Mrs. Hedrick, DR..
Williams and Mr.. Proff1tt, with that de-
lightful Interpretation possible only to
artists. Then came the "Jubilate'', by
Dudley Buck. The choir caught the
spirit of the music and imbued every
one present with the joy of 1t. "The
Lordsis My Light" by Allitson is q
wonderful composition and whom rem
dered with the grand contralto voice Of
Mrs. Northup could not fail to charm
all. Dudley Bucks "Te Deum" ar.
ranged from "The Creation" was sur.
psssingly sung by the choir.
"The Good Shepherd" as sung by
Mesdames Hedrick. Northup, Eliza.
beth Hummel and Franc Tinsley was

bis superb. tenor, of wonderful range
and such delightful quality, DR.. viii.
liams was at his best in the recitative
and aria from the Elijah, If, With all
Your Hearts," The Offertory Anthem
Prather's "Sing and Rejoice" was the
climax of the evening. The church
fairly echoed with the msjestic bar
monies.
The priest pronounced the benedic

kneeling. Rising, and to the martial
strains Of Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart, /"
the choir returned to the vestry and
were dismissed with short prayer by
Rev. d'Argent. The concert was q rare
treat, and yet was, except that there
was more Of it than usual, the service
OF song common to the worship of the
church. The choir to the writer's ear,
was faultless in the rendition of the
chants and anthems, and deserve high
encomiums. The priest in charge says
1t ts the best choir in South Dakota.
Mrs. Hedrick and DR.. Williams, who
have labored so faithfully and we'll to
make this concert q success, deserve
unstinted praise, and certainly have
demonstrated their ability, in giving to
Hot Syringe this grandest of sacred
concerts.
On account Of numerous requests the
concert will be repeated next Sunday
evening at 1880. A collection will be
taken for the benefit Of the church.
