A GET-ToGETRER SPIRIT.

The steady march of political events
in South Dakota in the past few years
has inevitably trended toward a reunion
of the factions in the Republican party.
The time was when this union could not
have been accomplished without sacri-
fee of principles of one side or the other.
There were important issues, sharply
defined on which the factions separated,
and SO separating, warred with each
other long after the primal causes of the
conflit ceased to exist.
The platform adopted by the minority
and majority proposal committees agree
and are in perfect accord on the follow
ing important issues:
A protective tariff, the measures of
which shall be the difference in cost of
production at home and abroad.
Improvement of the river system of
the great northwest for the benefit of all
Abolshing the old system of repre-
sentation in national conventions and
basing representation on the numerical
strength of the party in each state.
Condemming discrimination against
the farmers of the northwest by placing
their products on the free list while re
tanning the tariff on the things which
they must buy.
Economy in state administration.
t4m tot inc
tions.
Conserving the health and lives of the
working people.
Between the radical attempt to re-
duce the passenger rates tc two cents
per mile and the conservative view that
the three cent rate should not be dis
turbed, the courts have established a
common ground with two and hall
cent rate.
Measures opposed at one time by
either faction of the party and since
adopted by vote of the people or action
of their representatives in the legisla-
ture, have been accepted in good faith
by all and the enforcement of such laws
| is favored aud aided by all good Repub
licans.
The terms "stalwart" and progress.
| i've" as applied to South Dakota Repub.
licans are no longer definite, since ad
yanced programs of legislation were
offered by both minority and majority
platforms, and the party as whole, re-
presented by the voters who participated
in the primary. and led by the candi
dates, state, county, judicial and con
gressional, is the forward looking party
Custer weekly chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, S.D.) 1890-1931, 1914-10-03
of the state and nation.

Both minority and majority candidates
in primary after full discussion Pied
ged themselves to work together for the
success of the whole ticket and for the
triumph of Republican principles.
Differences of opinion on measures
may still exist and may arise in the
future, but the mere factionalism which
arrayed every member of one side
against every member of the other with
out regard to the ability, record and SER
vices of the individuals or merits OF
questions involved. is now declared to
be un-Republcan, tending to disrupt
the party and increasing the danger OF
the elevation to power of the demogogic
elements such as that now represented
by R. o. Richards and backed by his
immense private fortune.
Against this danger the Republican
party of South Dakota is determined to
present united front. The voters oi
the party have selected the candidates
in primary after full discussion Of
their merits, and each is entitled to the
hearty support of all Republican news
papers and Repsblicap voters Pierre

CANDIDATES SHOULD

if They Want Appointive
Places Says Law.

Pierre, Sept. 26-Under the provisions
of the present primary law of this state,
one of the duties Of the members of the
state committee of each party is to meet
at the state capital on the second Tues
day of December Of the year following q
general election, and make endorse
ments for party appointments, both
national and state, such endorsements,
under the law, being the guide for the
appointiye power in making selections.
The meeting for this year will be upon
the 9Th day of December. The appli-
cants for place are presumed to have
filed their applications with the secre-
tary of state, after the primary election,
and prior to the general election, and
the probabilities are that there will be
anumber of filings between now and
the third day of November. One of the
first to come in is that of John F. Lind
ouist of Moreau, who files as candidate
for appointment to the position of re-
ceiver of the United States land Office at

Withdrawals Made by South Dakota
Progressives-Women Active
in Campaign.

Sioux Falls, s. D., Sept. 2S.-Witt
only about FIVE weeks intervening be-
tween now and the time of the election
there is general tightening up of politi.
cal lines in South Dakota.
The withdrawal of Hans Ustrud as the
bull moose candidate for congress in the
First Isl oux Falls Yankton) district, and
the substitution of Abe L. Van Osdel, OF
Mission Hill, known as "Honest Abe,'
will make the fight in the First district
between Mr.. Van Osdel and Congress-
man c. H. Dillon, who was renominated
by the republicans for second term.
The withdrawal of Robert E. Dowdell,
of Artesian, as the bull moose candidate
for the United States senate, will leave
the bull moosers wit hout a candidate
for the federal senate, and leaves three
candidates in the field, in the persons of
Congressman Charles II. Burke, repub-
lican nominee; Ed. S. Johnson, of Yank
ton, democratic nominee, and Henry L.
Loucks, of Watertown, independent can
didate. The supporters of Mr.. Burke
believe that the withdrawal of Mr.. Dow
dell from the race for the United States
senate will result to the advantage of
Mr.. Burke, they figuring that Mr.. Burke
will receive large majority of the votes
which otherwise would have gone to Mr..
Dowdell had he remained in the field.
However, the friends of both Mr..
Johnson and Mr.. Loucks are confident
that their favorite will profit from the
withdrawal of Mr.. Dowdell. They fig
ure that the bull moose vote, which
would have gone to Mr.. Dowdell had he
remained in the field, will 90 to johnson
and Loucks. Notwithstanding these
claims, the supporters of Congressman.
Burke express confidence in Mr.. Burke
capturing the great bulk of the vote
which would have been for Mr.. Dowdell
Women Do Not Agree
Those opposing the adoption of pro-
posed constitutional amendment provid,
ing for the granting of the right of suf-
frage to the women of South Dakota
which will be submitted to the voters of
the state at the election in November,
have recently received reinforce m ents'
in the persons of one or two eastern
women speakers representing associa-
tions composed of women who are op-
posed to woman suffrage. These speak
ers now have commenced an active
speaking campaign in the state and are
expected to deliver telling blows against
the cause of woman suffrage. The suf-
frage forces also are active and have
several speakers in the field. 1t is pre-
sumed that both sides will increase the
number of their speakers as the election
draws closer. Those who are keeping
in close touch with the suffrage and anti
suffrage fight, having in mind that suf-
frage has in the past been twice defeated
in South Dakota, are predicting that at
the election in November it will be de-
feated for the third time by majority
of from 5000 to 10000.

MEXICO CONFRoNrED
WITH A NEW UPRISING

For long time past there have been
indications of a widening breach be-
tween Carranza, the present holder of
the executive power in Mexico, and
General Villa, the most redoubtable of
the Constitutionalist military leaders in
the late revolution against Huerta. The
differences between the two men have
been bridged over from time to time,
but in spite of repeated declarations that
they have become reconciled, they have
now apparently broken for good. Villa
has issued a statement in which he de-
clares that he and those acting with him
have been obliged to renounce Carran "a
as commander-in-chief of the Constitu-
tionalist army In charge of the executive
power, and have declared hostilities
against the present head of the state
with the view of compelling him to aban-
don his power and place the same in the
hands of real representative of the
people who will be disposed to remedy
all the evils of the republic and to direct
it through the proper road of progress
and well being. Mexico is therefore
seemingly confronted with a new up.
rising. in which, according to report,
several of the states of northern Mexico
have joined. The situation is of con-
siderable interest In the United States,
owing to the recent decision of the ad-
ministration to withdraw the troops
from Vera Cruz on the understanding
that their presence was no longer neces-
sary. 1t seems likely that the pro-
gramme of withdrawal will be carried
out ultimately notwithstanding the break
of the two Constitutionalist chiefs though
the departure of the troops will be de
layed owing to needed adjustments of
details.
