This subject was selected as the

more than any other comedy of SIM

In "Are You a Mason?" Mr.. Bar

which is one of the funniest climaxes
of the farce, which is further height

is not a Mason. and is constantly
manufacturing other deceptions to

he is finally caught and cornered by
his clever son-in-law, who emerges
VIGOROUSLY from the chaos he has
created, ends the comedy in a roar

MANY DIFFERENCES UPON

Pierre, s.. D.-Thc elections COM
mittee Of the two houses are trying
to shape up a primary election bill
which they think they can pass. So
far there appears to be so many dill
ferent ideas as to just what is the
RICH kind of IL primary law that
many members doubt whether or not
any bill can be drawn which will
meet the approval of a majority of
both houses with the Richards law
standing for at least another cleo
tion. AT the same time Richards has
his friends busy with his initiation,
petitions for Il new act, which covers
principally the provisions OF the pres
Icnt act, but with amendments to
cover II few OF the snags he found in
the last campaign, one OF which is
to make the independent candidate
of one campaign automatically the
| minority candidate for the next cam
! paign. Richards himself has not yet
appeared on the cen but J.. H..
Jones. OF Huron, his agent, is here
| pushing the work of securing names
to the petitions in this part of the
state. 1t is considered certain that
IL the legislature acts on Il new law
that. Richards will carry the issue
OF the right OF the Legislature to re-
peal or change an initiated act. n
OF tho features which appears to be
the hardest TO get the legislature to-
gether upon is that OF Il party regis
