A contribution has recently been
made to the Good Will Museum in
the form of twenty-one ancient coins,
of varying value. Most of them are
copper and we'll represent the period

valuable one in the collection is a

promotion, so that when he died he

MAY VOTE AGAIN
ON PRIMARY LAW
RICHARDS MEASURE, DEFEATED
BY SMALL MARGIN LAST NO
MEMBER. MAY BE UP
in 1918.

Huron, S. D.-Feeling that the
defeat of he initiated primary
law in the November or
by the narrow margin OF 32S
votes outof the 105,143 votes cast
was merely an accident, r. o. Rich
ards, father of the measure, is taking
up the work of securing petition
for another vote upon the matter III
1918.
After speaking of the close margin
of 1923 votes, which he labels ;
mere scratch" MIR. Richards points
out i'll his tirrsrt announcement tina
the race was close through most of
the state, except for the two ma
chine-ridden counties of Charles Mix
and Day and the two German-Rus-
sian counties of Mcpherson and
Campbell The measure led in the
balance of the state, but these four
counties turned the tide against it.
Mr.. Richards points With pride TO
the $4,000 votes least on the merits
OF the law" which, he processes, have
encouraged him to think that its .pur-
pose is gradually gaining ground in
the minds of the people
The old Richards law will be re
initiated in simplified form il
enough signatures can be securerd tc
the petition. Cards and blanks have
been sent out to people throughout
the state, and it is possible that the
measure may be before the people
again in 1918.
