COMBINED TO PLACE BULL
MOOSE TICKET IN FIELD

Aberdeen. Jan. 15.-That there
is a conspiracy between the leaders
of tie so called majority Repub-
licans, meaning the state machine,
and the bull moosers to desert the
Republican party and put 4 bull
moose ticket in the field in the
event the expected happens and
Co. | Crawford and his followers
are defeated in the primary election
on March "a, becomes increasing
evident. Coe /. gave the plan away
in his interview in the machine or
gan in Aberdeen while here Oh
Monday, aud now the Deadwood
Teleg, am, the only bull moose daily
in the state. betrays the fact that
there is deal on, by advising those
bull mo0sers who are becoming
tired of masquerading as Repub.
Leans, to hang on until after the
primaries-or at least not to at
tempt to organize the third party
until after the primaries. Then,
when the CrawfOrdites are finally
beaten, as their leader, their local
organ and the Telegram seem to
take for granted-jump IN and or
ganize the bull moose party and
appear in their proper cOlors. The
Telegram, in handing out advice
to the masqueraders, says;
The Telegram is the only Pro-
gressive party daily paper in the
state. 1t has advocated immediate
divorce from the Republican party.
Its editor has disfranchised himself
in the primary by registering as a
Progres sive, that he may be in
position to act consistently in
moving for organization of q Pro-
gressive party.
But in viewof all the conditions,
the Telegram would advise that
final decision and action along this
line he deferred until after the
primary in March. There will be
seven months afte. that in which
to prepare and file a ticket and or.
ganize a campaign, if it is deemed
necessary to do so. Many who are
really Progressive have registered
as Republicans in order to save
themselves from being wholly dis
tranchised in the primary, and are
desirous of taking part in tha pri-
mary. Many may feel more ut
liberty to take part in a new or
ganization Of the Progressive party
after the primary than they are
now.
In view of all the facts it would
seem to be wise to defer the Or
ganization of a Progressive party
at least uutil after the primary. If
it is than thought advisable, there
will be plenty oil time to act.
In view OF recent utterance by
bull moOsers from outside the state
and by Coe Isaac and the Telegram,
it is fair presumption that some
thing interesting is scheduled to
take place soon after March "A.

Chautauquaism VS.. Militarism.

With the Coryel's Ferry Chautauqua
opening at New Hope today, it is refreshing
to the mind to compare Chautauquaism with
Militarism; decidedly to the latters undoing
General Sherman said that ''War is Hell'
but in the light of recent European events,
we think that the General had a totally in
adequate vocabulary, or else he only had an
inkling of what it really is
The Chautauqua is great, uplifting
force: force which it would be impossible
to exercise in any other country upon the
face of the globe, but particularly in military
countries, where all educational and Christ
ian works sink into insignifcance compared
with the great murder machine -militarism.
While we are enjoying week of enter
tainment which will not only make the sum-
mer days seem pleasanter and tit us better
for the Fall work, we are also instilling within
our minds loftier ideals, purer thoughts, and
nobler purposes. 1t is the highest form sof
education.
While we are enjoying these great pri-
vileges, which only became ours because our
forefathers were real Americans and shed
their blood for us, our European brethren are
flying at one another with bayonets and
bullets, killing, manning and outraging every
yestige of civilized influence.
Compare the two in your minds while you
are attending the Chautauqua.

Editor Killgore, of the Hunterdon
County Democrat, might as we'll re-
tire as a Democratic candidate for
the Surrogateship at once. A Lam
bertville lady, reading about the age
of his paper, said she never had any
idea that Mr.. Killgore was ninety
years of age, and she would think a
man as old as that would know better
than to run for an office anyway, as
he would be liable to die of heart
failure.

Killgore Gaining Ground.

The candidacy of Anthony Kill
gore, of Pennington, for Surrogate
of Hunterdon County, is gaining
ground all the time. A number of
Democrats who are not going to
vote for the other Gebhardt candi-
dates, are going to vote for Mr..
Killgore.
The following editorial is reprint
ed from last weeks Hunterdon Coun-
ty Democrat, giving the candidates.
own story of what he stands for:
TO THE PUBLIC.
The following editorial clipped from
the columns of last weeks Lambert
vile Record opens UP an argument
that I feel that l should reply to.
The Record says
EDITOR FOR SURROGATE.
There does not appear to be
any particular reason why An
thony Killgore, editor of the Hun
terdon county Democrat, should
not be the next Surrogate of Hun
terdon County, unless he is de-
feated by his own brethren in the
profession.
There appears to be a more or
less concerted movement against
Editor Killgore's candidacy upon
the ground that he has already
received his reward in the way of
public printing, but we take no.
tice that none of the other papers
make any objection to receiving
their share when the opportunity
offers.
Other lines of business rally to
the support of one of their mem
bers when he seeks Office, and
there doesn't appear to be any
reason for opposition to Mr.. Kill
gore other than certain form of
jealousy because he happens to
run one of the leading newspapers
| in the county. The question of
partisanships is immaterial. es-
pecially when none of the paners
are advocating any particular
party at the present time in their
editorial columns.

We really fear
Is the
Beacon

hRDnDllcan. con GC III pO O. > ,
the Lambertvllle
Beacon. is going to break away
from the Democratic letters winch
it has long borne in martyred silence
and enter the ranks OF mayor
Morse's and Frank Barkley's pet
party the Republican.
In his last issue Brother Hazen
takes whack at the LambertVille
correspondent of the Trenton Times
(who happens to be also the editor
of the Lambertville Record), charg-
ing him with trying to help the he
publican Sheriff candidate Frank
Barley spread dissension In the
ranks of the party. Incidentally,
instead of Candidate Barley order
ing us to print the news, we were
able to first apprise him of it our
selves, through the newspapers.
But what worries US, is, the
Beacon says it has inside informa-
ton from the Republican ranks.
We thought we knew quite few
Republicans, ourselves, but we have
no inside news, so can only at
tribute our contemporaries superior
knowledge to some connection with
the party organization which we
had not heretofore suspected.
Wonder what the Democrats will
think of it?

SOUVENIR DAY.
Governor Byrns Issues Proclamation NAM
ing Saturday as Souvenir Day
for Panama Exposition.

Governor Byrne has issued the follow
ing proclamation in relation to the
movement to secure funds for state ex.
hibit at the San Francisco exhibition
next year.
"There has been general and insis-
tent demand that the state be represent
ed at the Panama Pacific exposition.
This demand has come from all sections
of the state and from people of all call
ings and classes. Because Of this de-
mand appointed commission to con-
slider the advisability Of providing for
such representation by erecting build
ing and conducting an exhibit Of the
states resources.
"After holding several meetings and
canvassing the situation thoroughly, the
commission has reached the conclusion
that such representation is desirable
and feasible, and that with the co.opera-
tion of our citizens, approximately $780,
600 can be readily faised to finance such
representation.
"As means of providing part Of this
fund, the commission has provided cer-
tain beautiful and attractive souvenirs,
to be placed on sale at the different
banks and other places throughout the
state, and sold at one dollar each, this
giving every citizen an opportunity to
cooperate, by small contribution at
least, in placing on the exposition ground
building and exhibit which will at
tract the same favorable attention that
the other states of the union are to re.
ceive, and bring pride and qualification
to our people.
"To further the sale ofthese souvenirs
and thus aid the general plan, the COM
mission requests me to designate a Sou
yenir Day.
Accordingly to promote the purpose
herein indicated, hereby designate ,Sa-
turday. September 10, as Souvenir Day
throughout the state of South Dakota.
and ask the good people of the state on
that day to buy and wear at least one
such souvenir and contribute by so much
to the final success of the enterprise"

SECOND HOMESTEAD.
The Western Homesteader and Deser
Land Entryman is to be Given
Another Chance.

Washington, Sept. 8.-The western
homesteader and desert land entry man
is to be given another chance. The law
just enacted, providing for second home
stead and desert entries TO all who have
abandoned their former entries through
no fault of their own, will be ready for
this class of upfortunates as soon as the
necessary rules and regulations can be
issued for its administration. Congress
has frequently passed law giving a
second homestead right, but heretofore
lit has limited its benefits to those having
made and abandoned such entries pre-
vious to specified date. The latest
law, however. not only applies to all pre-
vious entries, but to all to be made here
after. In substance the new law pro-
vides that an entryman otherwise quail
fed under the desert land or homestead
laws, who has lost or abandoned the
former entry through no fault of his
own, will be entitled to make entries
under such laws as though the former
entry or entries had not been made.
A provision to the act requires the
entryman to prove ito the satisfaction
of the Secretary of the Interior" chat
prior entries were made in good faith,
were lost or abandoned because of mat
ters beyond his CONTROL" that he has
not committed fraud nor attempted fraud
nor specnlated in his right in making
the former entry or entries" This pro-
vision was the cause of much discussion
before its final enactment in the house.
Representative Mondell contended that
it restricted the benefits of the measure
to point where, under administration
by unfriendly hands, it would be almost
impossible for the entryman to satisfy
the secretary as to the requirements
named. Through no fault of his own"
and matters beyond his CONTROL" he
pointed out, would be extremely diff
cult points to establish before an official
inclined to interpret the law strictly.
He also asserted that the language of
the act would require those who had al
ready exercised second right under
previous special statutes to again furnish
proof as to the original entries.

BLACK MOUNT TAINs.

Whether the Black Hills shall change
its name to Black Mountains to conform
to the real nature of the country, has
again been brought up for discussion and
the Deadwood Business club has under
taken to ascertain sentiment in the Hills
and if favorable to the change, the legis.
lature next January will be asked to
make the change. Two years ago this
idea was sprung as it is maintained by
those favoring the change that the Hills
which have an altitude of from 5000 to
5000 feet, are really mountains and that
much tourist traffic fails to come to the
Hills under the misapprehension that
they are but foothills. Many of the
pioneers for sentimental and other rea-
sons oppose any change but the effort to
get full expression of opinion through
out the Black Hills is to be made before
any action is taken.

A booster irrigation meeting open to
the public will be held on the forenoon
of each day at the Custer County Fair
September 22nd and 23rd. Tuesday it
is expected that Judge McGee and Re-
ceiver Harry l.. Candy of Rapid City,
and an irrigation expert from Belle
Foarche, E. A. Cade, will appear on the
program. The following day Judge Rice
of Deadwood, who perhaps rendered
more decisions in irrigation controvers-
les than any other judge in the state,
will speak on this question. Ben M.
Wood, Dakota's leading good roads boos-
ter, will also deliver his good roads ad-
dress, and discuss the irrigation amend
ment. With the usual exhibits along
agricultural and industrial lines not
withstanding the unfavorable season,
and variety of stunts pulled off on the
new race track, this irrigation program
should cap the climax. 1t is one of the
live topics in this section ofthe state.
