torney of a county In the United
States, and who was defeated at the
March primaries for denomination at
the hands of the republicans of Rob
erts county, has entered the race as
an independent candidate, running on
his record, and on the ground that
IL has always been the custom in
Roberts county to reflect a states
attorney who has made a good record
during his first term.
Pierre-The ferry boat which was
built at Grafton, ILL.,, for the govern
ment ferry service at Cheyenne
agency, which left Grafton July 81,
left this city yesterday for the last
lap on the trip to the agency, and
the crew in charge expects to reach
the end of the trip before the end of
this week. The river is so low at this
season of the year that a great deal
of trouble is being encountered from
sand bars, and the time which will
be required TO make any definite dis
lance is a problem based on the num-
Der of delays from that source.

memoration of the anniversary will

HEAD OF SOUTH DAKOTA PEACE

TO THE PEOPLE.

Ipswich, Sept. 1S.-J. w. Parmley,

relative to the observance of the day

ever befell the human race.

the war will bring in territorial
changes-what price will be exacted
of the vanquished. This will be de-
termined-not on the field of battle,

AGAIN RUMORING
Talk OF Crawford Getting Into the
Field As an Independent.

Huron, Sept. 1S.-A new rumor is
in circulation here with reference to
the South Dakota political situation.
This rumor is to the effect that pres
sure is being exerted to induce r. e.
Dowdell and H.. l.. Loucks to with
draw as senatorial candidates, with a
view of getting Senator Crawford to
run as IN Independent candidate.
These overtures, 1t is said, have come
from the Richards camp, indicating
that Mr.. Richards is willing to bury
the Ratchet against Senator Craw-
ford. The friends of Senator Craw-
ford do not expect the situation to
develop much beyond its present
standing as a rumor. An effort was
made a few weeks ago to induce
Dowdell and Loucks to withdraw in
favor Of Pettigrew, but this plan did
not materialize.

of $4,000, will be for the benefit of
the industry in South Dakota.
DR.. S. M. Smith, inspector in
charge of the campaign, presided at
the meeting. Among the speakers
were DR.. o. G. Selby of Pierre, state
veterinarian; DR.. Raleigh M. Ward of
the federal bureau OF animal industry
and Vey Valentine of the state col
lege at Brookings, who will have
charge of the organization and survey
of the county.
The farmers of Dawson county
have taken hold OF the federal cam
paign with enthusiasm, and every eff
fort will be made to combat the dis
ease, which has already commenced
to ravage herds in this vicinity at a
considerable loss.
