Wichita had the front of their build
ings covered with signs stating that
men were wanted in South Dakota
harvest fields, with SO a day guaran-
teed. The men say they paid $3.50
each and received the above souven-
ir for their money, and were told an
arrangement had been made with the
Yankton commercial club to see that
they got work for at least 1875 days,
at SO a day. When they reached
Yankton, the men called upon the
secretary of the commercial club,
and found he had made any
such agreement with the Yankton
concern and did not know of the
existence of such an agency. SINH
lar instances have been brought to
light at Sioux Falls, and it is sus-
pected here that Wichita concern
grated harvest hands out of MANY
hundreds of dollars in that manner.
Secretary Cooley will take the mat
ter up with the Wichita Commercial

RICHARDS WANTS 10
i y LAW OBSERVED
ASKS, PRESIDENT WILSON TO
MAKE APPOINTMENTS AS RE- /.
QUIRED, by HIS PRIMARY n =
LAW.

Washington, D.. C.-Among the
things which President Wilson will
take up with the cabinet is a request
that the Wilson administration re-
spect the Richards primary law of
South Dakota, SO far as it relates to
the distribution of federal patron
age. This request is contained in a
letter from r. o. Richards, father of
the law, which was presented to the
president by Representatives Burke
and Dillon. Upon leaving the White
House MI. Burke said the president
Dillon had to say, asked a few ques-
lions, grasped the strong points in
Mr.. Richards letter and said the
situation as it now exists and has
existed, is an interesting problem.
y Postmaster General Burleson met
Mr.. Burkeein the hall of representa-
tives, where they had served twelve
years with each other, and discussed
the Richards law. Mr.. Burleson
wanted to know definitely about the
postmaster primary feature. A year
ago when this matter came up and
an opinion of the attorney general of
South Dakota that the law could not
become Operative until the commit
tees should be selected at the March
primaries was submitted, Mr.. Burle-
son said: "1ll cross that bridge
when 1 come to it," Mr.. Richards
letter makes plain that the bridge has
been reached.
Compliments Exchanged.
AS an incident to the call of the
two South Dakota congressman at
the White House Mr.. Burke and the
president exchanged compliments. 1t
came about in this way. Mr.. Burke,
as he and Mr.. Dillon were about to
depart, said, "Mr. President, 1 must
compliment you on the scrupulous
care with Which you keep your en-
gagements; you have it all over

PRIMARYLAW
NOW EFFECTIVE
ATTORNEY GENERAL HOLDS AS
IN FORCE POSTMASTER PRI-
MAlsIES AND PLAN FOR
APPOINTMENTS.

Pierre, S. DIN an opinion in re-
gard to the postmaster primary pro-
visions of Art. g., Gnap,erfz U1, Laws
of 1911, the Richards" Primary,
Attorney General johnson holds that
the provision for settling postmast-
erships by election, are now In force.
Prior to the last election, the SUI
preme court held that none of the
provisions OF the Act which depend
ed upon performance of officials to be
selected under the act could ne lin
effect until after their selection, and
the attorney general, on that opinion;
held that the postmaster primary
provisions could not 60 into effect
until the committeeman provided for
in the act. had been legally selected.
In the March primary they were $50
selected, and 1t. is now held that all
of the provisions are effectiyeg dttig
held that the law requires party COM
mitteemen on proper application to
call postmaster primary elections;
provides the machinery for carrying
ont such elections; and the manner
of conducting them. A penalty Is
provided for refusal of any OstlcYaA
under the law to comply with its
provisions, and it is suggested by
the department that In ease of the
refusal of any party committeeman
to call an election on proper request
a suit under the penalty provisions
Of the act would bring the issue to
an early final test.
Incidentally, Postmaster General
Burleson is quoted in a Washington
special to the effect that he will
ignore the South Dakota postmaster
primary provisions and make his Sc
~lections on endorsements regardless
of any primary selections.

Another Rabid Animal Appears
Near Mountain Falls. where
Three Persons Were Bitten

The appearance of another mad dog
in the vicinity of Mountain Falls,
near the Frederick Shenandoah line,
has greatly alarmed the people Of
that section. Two weeks ago Marion
Smith, of near Mine Bank, was at
tackled by big black dog and was
forced to cut the animals throat from
ear to ear before he could release
himself. Mrs. Smith and young son
of Gorden Moore, neighbor, who
ran to Smiths assistance, were also
bitten. All three are in the Pasteur
Institute In Washington undergoing
treatment.
Thursday George Nelson, of near
Mountain Falls, was driving along
the road several miles from the scene
of Smiths battle with the rabid ami
NAL, when dog attacked his horse.
Nelson shot the dog from his seat in
the buggy.
It is said that the same dog had
bitten live stock in fields nearbv and
several other dogs.
