II we understand the situation, Mr..
Policy, as secretary of state, is charg-
ed with having sold a political ap-
pointment. II we have been correct
ly informed, Mr.. Policy is charged
with having appointed a man to a
certain political position who had
agreed, in return for such appoint
ment, to donate a certain sum to the
cause espoused by Mr.. Policy and
his party associates. If this consti-
tutes Mr.. Polley's entire ofense-
concerning which we are not defin-
itely advised-Mr. Policy seems to
have used his position as secretary
of state to promote the spoils sys-
tenn, against which Mr.. Richards has
been waging such vigorous warfare.

FARMERS CALF CARRIED
OFF BY WILD DOG PACK

Whitesville, Del.-Although it has
been known that a pack OF wild dogs
has been roaming in the cyprus
swamp, near here, it was not until
recently that they bothered the farm
ers.
The other morning, while Samuel
Gordy was watering his stock, he
heard a strange noise in his COW
shed. He found eight wild dogs at
lacking one of the calves. They were
undaunted when he advanced with a
pitchfork and continued their attack
until he went to the house for a gun
when they fed carrying the dead falf
away with them.

A LONG, EXPENSIVE WAR

We venture the opinion that if Am

preteXt whatsoever, IT will be the

American youths will lose their lives

impos ble to nominate Hughes. Did
MT know that Bob and Teddy were
working together, or that Cummins
had tied up with oRot! If that's so,

Perhaps it doesn't matter much,
anyway, who goes to Chicago to rep
resent the republicans of South Da-
kota. Unless either Hughes or Ted
dy is nominated, about the best that
can be hoped for is the maintenance
of the republican organization, in the
opinion of many observers. Then,
again, there are some chaps who be
lieve that if Teddy is nominated it
will be difficult to maintain even the
organization. So there you are!
