Is South Dakota
For Sen. CumminS?

Governor Byrne's evident inten-
ton of calling a special session of
the legislature to amend the primary
law is taken by the Aberdeen News
as an effort to carry the delegation
Of South Dakota for Senator Cum
mlns. of Iowa, for president. The
News SAYS in part:
"Of course the governor knows
what the answers of the legislators
will be. on the same principle that
enables you to know what to expect
when you ask a small boy to have
a second dish of ice cream:
THE significant part of the gov.
ernor's action lies in the fact that it
means the state administration after
much hesitation, has decided against
any harmony program that has been
suggested-against the suggestion
Of National Committeeman Burke,
which has been endorsed by Senator
Sterling and Representatives John
o and Dillon. and is determined to
make q fight for a Cummins dele.
cation to the Republican national
convention"
IL the News is correct in its sur
mise. which is not admitted, the
state politicians are certainly not
reading the signs Of the times. The
Importance of national victory
should be the first consideration.
And that consideration has only one
alternative. viz: An u~ninstructed
delegation to take advantage of any
logical situation that may arise at
Chicago National party leaders
agree that the next republican can
didate will be born at Chicago on
convention day.

their views in regard to the advis
ability of a special session Of the
legislature for the purpose OF
amending the present primary law
so as to secure an earlier general
primary date. and after a state.
ment of the situation propounds the
following quiries to each member
for reply:
First. wheather, under the cir
cumstances. you think a special
session of the Legislature is advis-
able?
Second, whether YOU favor
amending the primary law 50 as to
fix the date for the regular primary
election early enough that delegates
to all party national conventions
may be elected at such regular pri-
mary?
Third, whether if an extra
ordinary session is called will you at
tend and participate in it's proceed

Former Atty. Gen. Says Con-
vention
Pierre. Jan. 2l.-Former Attor-
ney General Clark, one of the leaders
IN the progressive ranks. while in
this CITY put forth the theory, that
outside a primary law, any party is
a law unto itself" in it's control of
party actions or party policies
When the state steps in and regu
lates party actions by law, the party
is controlled bv such action. But
when the law which the legislature
has attempted to provide for tarty
control, breaks down, or becomes
inadequate through conditions aris-
ing outside of such law. the party
must revert to original principals to
carry on its organization.
On this basis he contends that the
only practical means of securing a
delegation to the Chicago conyen-
ton is through a party convention
called just as though no primary
law exists.

MILK RAISE HELD OFF.

Using the pending railroad strike as a
lever to hold off raise in the price of
milk little longer the city dairymen on
Thursday succeeded in getting the ex-
ecutive committee Of the Maryland &
Pennsylvania Milk Producers Associa-
ton to let the matter rest until Sept
ember 15. The shippers played wise
part in acceding to the dairynen's
wishes for had strike occurred
the dairymen would probably have made
every effort to place upon shippers the
blame for any inconvenience consumers
would have to stand. As 1t IL, when
the middle Of the month arrives the
shippers may go In with clean slate
and force the issue. In the meantime
the dairymen who see that raise is
inevitable will have an opportunity to
convert the few who wish TO put up
fight to continue the old price.

In view Of the recent agitation on the
subject Of the price Of milk. Miss Sa-
