BURKE LOOKS FOR VICTORY
Conditions Are Extremely Salts
factory to Republican
Cndidate

alton received during the last
few days by Congressman Char
les H. Burke, Republican noml
nee for the senate in South
Dakota. from many people of the
state, points to the election of
the entire Republican ticket in
November by an old time major
Ity.
This information comes to Mr..
Burke IN letters replying to IA
request from him for a size-up of
the political situation i'm the var
lous localities In writing for this
information Mr. Burke expressed
the hope that all of his friends
would give their hearty and en-
ihuslastlc support to every can
iidate on the Republican ticket.
The responses | am receiving
are greatly pleasing to me- Mr..
Burke said They show that tho
sentiment throughout the state is
that the whole ticket will re-
ceive the support of Republicans
generally. This. of course. is as
IT should be. as the only way to
preserve the principals of nOmi-
Nations by primary is for the
members OF political party to
stand by the selections made in
a primary election. | know from
past experiences that the Re
pnb.lcans of South Dakota will
support the entire ticket nOmi-
mated AT their primary held on
March a. Nearly every man
wfo has replied makes some Re
ference To the feebleness of
the Dhii HloOse movement NV
own opinion as to this movement
in South Dakota is that the vot
ers of the state are taking but
little interest in it.
Encouraging Letters
The following are excerpts
from letters received by Mr..
Burke within the last few days:
BroOkings cOunty-The meet
ing of our friends, the bull moos-
ers. did not create a ripple. Re
publicans generally are going to
stay by the whole Republican
ticket.
Aurora cOunty-The bull
moose following is minus quaint
ity in this county. The
whole ticket nominated will have
the support of practically every |
Republican regardless of his past
moose tendencies.
Charles Mix county Charles
Mix county is all right. ALI the |
boys are lining up for the whole |
ticket nominated in March.
Pennington county The stu
ation IN our part Of the county |
is very satisfactory as respects |
the entire Republican ticket. II
think the Republicans here are
nearer together than they have |
been for many years
There is no bull moose senti-
ment here whatever, and
think this is true as to the en-
tire Black Hills.
Hutchinson county The bull
moose party will do nothing to
speak of in this county.
Roberts county There were
no delegates sent from this
county to attend the bull moose |
convention, and have not noticed !
a bit of sentiment along that
line in the county at all. There is |
not the slightest doubt in nv |
mnid but this county will cast a
solid vote for the ticket az nomi-
mated at the primaries.
kingsbury county The bull
moose movement has not caused
q ripple in South Dakota and in
my opinion is q complete fizzle. |
