everywhere linked with the luncheon
given last week by Robert Bacon and
attended by Senator Root and Senator
Lodge. Politicians generally see in the
proof that the colonel and Root have
composed their differences and that
the Roosevelt candidacy will at least
meet with no opposition from Root.
Before the report of the staten nt
was permitted to leak out of Oyster
Bay, Colonel Roosevelt is said to have
been assured by friends from the west
and middle west that those sections
would support a candidate for the
nomination who took a decisive stand
on matters of foreign policies. 1t was
these assurances that led him to de-
clare: et

Don't nominate me if you expect
me to pussyfoot on any single issue 1

Though urging that the United
States must prepare to defend its
rights in every international contro-
versy, the colonel insisted that he does
not want war, that on the contrary
he "abhorS an UNJUST or a wanton
war" But the firm course he advo-

While 100 women are eating a dol

prominent women will eat an equally
tempting luncheon at Washburn COL
lege. The up town luncheon party
will be that of the Vernon-McFar-

terests of Mrs. Belmont and special
train load of suffrage boosters. The
luncheon at Washburn will be for Mrs.
Gait and will be under the direction
of the Johnston CaSe-Harding crowd
and the Women's federation.
A women's party is planned by the
leaders in the Belmont party. Miss

to mean that the congressional union
will organize to throw brickbats at
the congressman and senators who
blocked the Susan B. Anthony ma

Other Issues Involved.

There are other issues involved,
however. The women in the Johnston
Case Harding crowd insist that the
congressional union leaders are inter-
lopers. They assert the union has
sought to steal the fire and thunder
of the national association and that
their organization pioneered the way
for national suffrage. Now, it is
charged. the congressional union,
wants the glory.
Neither faction would today admit
that new brand of trouble faces the
women to be in the limelight next
week. Possibly they remember the
experiences of the big wonen's row of
a few weeks ago. Possibly that is the
reason for the efforts now being made
to keep the factionaI troubles under
cover.
One thing is certain, though. The
Women's Federation, including the
leaders in the National Suffrage assoc
citation. will not attend the dollar
plate Belmont luncheon. In fact they
have completed detailed plans for a
counter attraction. And while the
matter is under discussion, it might be
mentioned that the Congressional
Union women have not hired a band
with which to welcome the coming of
Mrs. Gait
Surely the innocent bystanders will
have pleasant time when the war
ring factions launch the festivities iE

Big ARMY NOW THE SLOGAN
FINAL PRIMARY DECISION
NOW UP TO THE PEOPLE

Yesterday, at Washington, the ap-
peal of R. 0. Richards from the de-
cision of the state supreme court in
the case of the South Dakota primary
law was dismissed by the United
States supreme court, which stated as
its reason that the court had no jur.
isdiction in the case.
1t was therefore peremptority dis.
missed without hearing, the court
declining to consider it.
This is the case in which the state
supreme court decided that legisla-
ture has power to repeal an initiated
act that was adopted by the votes OF
the people.
The refusal of the higher court to
accept jurisdiction and consider the
appeal fixes the responsibility for the
final decision on the five men of the
supreme court of the state, which
overturned the conclusion of many
thousand voters of the state.
This final decision declares that the
people of the state are not sovereign
The people of the state believe they
|are sovereign.
With this radical difference between
the people and the court, the matter
becomes an issue between the two
land it enters the arena as vital
question to be settled at the polls as
time goes on.
There is nothing that will more eff
fectually arouse a commonwealth
than refusal to grant privileges guar
anteed by its constitution.
There is no doubt that the consti
tuition of South Dakota makes 1h5
