reunion, the object being to present a
contrast in public speaking in favor of
the democrat. If so, someone. was
sadly disappointed, for just the op-
posite effect was produced. Reinhart
who acquired a reputation in the leg
islature last winter for being a ready
and witty talker, failed TO get hold OF
his audience at the Ft. Pierre reunion,
and his voice carried so poorly that
but few were able to hear what he
said. Norbeck secured the sympathy
of his hearers from the start, his voice
carried to the limits of the crowd as
sembled to hear him, and he gave an
address that at once ranks him as one
of the able platform speakers of the
state.

POLITICS

Working under the new primary law
which is the old Crawford primary
with a registration feature carefully
protected by an elaborate statute,
South Dakota will nominate candidates
for state Offices next June, following
what promises to be a short campaign,
says a Pierre dispatch. 1t should be
a good year for the logical candidate"
The complicated system built up I'M
der the Richards law by which the
road to nomination was made rough
for the strong and popular candidate
while encouraging the political non
descripts to get into the race and pre-
vent majority nominations, was repeal
ed by a two-thirds vote of the 1915
legislature, acting under nor or less
positive instructions from constitu-
ents. No disposition is shown by the
candidates to start the ball rolling
early and make a long fight of it.
Rumors set afioat sometime ago
that Governor Byrne was seeking a
third term or that he was in a recep-
tive mood for third term proposals,
have no foundation in fact. Friends
close to the governor know there is
nothing in this report and it may be
stated positively that he has not now
and never has had any intention of
seeking the nomination for a third
time. The governor stated recently
that, if for no other reason, he could
no longer afford to neglect private

STATE NEWS

AS the result of their preliminary
hearing, Is prominent homesteaders
and other residents of the Millboro
territory in Trip county have been
held for trial in the state circuit ciurt
on the charge of riot. All the defend
ants refused to furnish bonds and
were turned over to the sheriff pend
ing the converting of the term of court
at which they will be tried. They
were members of the so-called moral
ity squad" and their arrest was the
elimination Of me Of the most sensa-
tional events of its kind in the history
of South Dakota. Believing that the
morals Of their territory required the
toning up process a vigilance commit
tee composed of As or so homesteaders
organized and made a raid through
the territory on persons whom they
regarded as being in need of a moral
uplift. The Is men held for trial are
charged with being the r~ingleaders in
the uplift movement. The viligance
committee visited, among other places,
the home of Jay McWade and Miss
Clara Deitermann and demanded to
see their marriage certificate. The
document not being produced the
members of the viligance committee
informed McWade and his alleged
affinity that they must either be mar
ried or leave the country. Instead of
complying with the demand, McWade
and Miss Deitermann swore out war
rants for the arrest of Is members of
the vigilance committee, with the re-
suit stated. In retaliation, the vigil
antes had McWade and the woman
arrested on a statutory charge. AS the
result Of their preliminary hearing,

business and bear the expense that
goes with the office of governor.
There is not much excitement owe
the f~lattering mention of Governor
Byrne in connection with the office of
vic~e-president. 1t is realized that there
is little chance for a man from a west
ern state of comparatively small pop
ulation to be chosen for this office.
Northumberland Norbeck is pre-
serving a ~sphinX-like silence in regard
to his expected candidacy for the gov
ernorship, perhaps with a view to
avoiding a long and bitter primary
campaign. Whether he will go so far
as to continue in this attitude and per-
nit the office to seek the man, is not
known, but there are many who be-
lieve that in such case he would be-
come a veritable Cincinnatus and that
the republican nomination would come
his way with or without effort on his
part, Certain it is that this native
South Dakota, of Scandinavian PAL
entage, is tremendously popular
throughout the state.
The old settlers reunion held at Fort
Pierre in August was the occasion Of
a pleasing surprise to those who had
lent ears to the report that Norbeck
could not make a speech. There is
current a rumor that has not been
verified that certain prominent demo-
Gratis so engineered matters that Nor
beck and the prospective democratic
candidate for governor, Reinhart of
Rapid City, should both speak at the

Doane Robinson of the state histori-
cal society has secured copies of the
original Lewis and Clark Journals of
their trip up the Missouri river in 1903,
and with the journals, copies of the

locates what was known as the "Loi-

on an island just at the mouth of
Chapelle creek, about ten miles down
the Missouri from Rousseau. 1t was
at this place that Manuel Lisa made
his headquarters and kept the Sioux
Indians along the Missouri from join
ing with the English in their attack
on the frontier American settlements.
This was one of the first permanent
trading posts this far up the Missouri
river, having been constructed in 1896,
and was occupied by various fur trad
ers as a depot and trading post until
it was burned several years later. This
post was established by Register
