days are, therefore. given to secure
telegraphic returns. The chairman
and secretary could then telegraph
the returns to the national convention
as provided for by the Burke resolu-
! tion, passed by the national commit
Zee. Both the chairman, Hon. J. L.
Lockhart, and the secretary, Hon c.
B. Powers, were duly elected by the
people of the state, and it is unfair
to assume that they would do other
than comply with the law, the same
as would the state convassing board,
lif the certificaaion were in its hands.
Proceeding Legal
THE proceeding outlined is legal,
absolutely provided for by the pri,
mary to meet the situation forced up
on us by the action of the national
committee, for which no one in South
Dakota is responsible, and, as we
have six months in which to deter
mine whetherssor not the law is feas-
lfble, no hasty action is necessary.
There has been no general convention
of the republicans Of the state for sew
eral years, and, therefore, no general
meeting of the men who have at heart
the rehabilitation of American indus
try and the re-enactment of sound
revenue measure.-a measure that
will re-establish the credit of the I'm
tied States treasury, and relieve it
from its present bankrupt condition,
without the imposition of unfair, un-
Just, and discriminatory taxation.
Tending to Harmony
Such a conference Will tend to
wipe out many personal differences,
not based on difference of opinion
on some matter of principle, and will
afford an opportunity for many young
er members Of the party to meet their
political associates from all parts of
the state:
In conclusion, l will say that /
would not attempt to insinuate or in
dicate the action that the republi.
cans should or could take When they
get together, if they do, the future
of the party and its policy is in their
hands. A conference of this mature e
can do no harm to the state or to the
party, and may do a great deal of
good"

proved to be "blue sky" affair,
and when the notes were presented

EDITORIAL COMMENT

The wonderful strength that
Roosevelt was developing in the
east that we have heard so much
about seems to have been of the
newspaper variety and isn't pan
ming out in the primary votes.
New York, his home state, elected
an uninstructed delegation, which
is understood to be for Hughes if
he will accept. Ia Massachusetts,,
on straight issue, Roosevelt was
easily defeated. New Jersey also
turned him down. In the west he
is not faring any better. Iowa
went for Cumplins and an effort to
show Roosevelt strength by pasting
stickers onto the ballots, gave him
just 2,S06 votes. In Nebraska
twelve of the sixteen delegates are
said to be favorable to Hughes. In
South Dakota an anonymous call
has been issued for a Roosevelt
meeting to be held in Mitchell to
devise some plan for carrying the
primaries and the progressives,
who in 1912 gave him such liberal
support, are 30 ashamed of the
movement that they are trying to
make it appear that it is a stalwart
move to discredit them.

EDITORIAL COMMENT

The 1915 session of the legislature
appropriated So, 900 for the main
tainance Of the Attorney Generals
office and law was passed at
the same session making it possible
for this Off cial todraw that amount
of money from the state treasury.
Not single member of the legisla
ture, aside from seven members of
the committee knew that such
bill was in existence. e.-Lestervi.le
Ledger.
This is a severe charge of in.
competency to bring against our
legislative body and we can hardly
believe that, with a copy of the bill
on the desk of each member, not
one of them except the seven men,
bers of the committee knew what
it contained. 1t is true that such
an appropriation was made, but
we see nothing surprising in the
fact, even if the members knew it..
The unusual showing arises from
the fact that the attorney for the
railroad commissioners has been
made deputy to the attorney gen.
eral and all expense of litigation
brought by the commissioners is
now paid through the attorney
generals office. The expense of
fighting rate cases against the
railroads is not small. Then there
are numerous other cases that
have been prosecuted by the state,
such as the effort to recover from
the bondsmen of former state
treaeurers for interest, collected
and kept, on public funds. Some
of this interest money has already
been recovered but the expense of
prosecution is charged to the at
torney generals Office. To give an
idea of how the money was spent
we give the footings from the state
auditors report as follows -
Attorney Generals salary 81 900 90
