Old UaderhandedT Tricks Arc Try

The dead Sioux County Voters
/ League, has been rcsurrectel for the
purpose Of enjoining Indians from
participating at the primary election,
June 2Sth.
This alleged brilliant attempt to
disfranchise our Red brothcr-thc
Sioux-originatcd in the skull of
Dando, The building director of one
of the common school districts of
the county and is aided and abetted
by Dead Eye Scogin. At least they
have enlisted the support OF Con-
gresham Norton in an attempt to
have Superintendent Covey, in
charge OF the Standing Rock reser-
vat;on, to furnish the Sioux County
Voters League with a poll list Of
the Indian voters in Sioux county.
According m- official information
to the Pioneer Mr.. Covey is not in
position to deliver any poll list
The county auditor has the complete
registration list Of the voters in
Sioux county qualified to participate
in the coming election, and as the
records of the auditors office are
public documents, the officers of
the League are at liberty to examine
same and compile such information
as they want.

In these counties, where Mr.. Bur-
dick was strong two years ago, the
League has unquestionably made in
roads WHICH will tend to depreciate
his vote. That this Will aetract
from Mr.. Burdick's strength is adj
mitted by his best friends and adj
mirers.
The situation so far as Mr..
FRAMES territory is concerned is
different. The League has not been
able to make any material gains
there, but on the contrary the
Frame element is strong, staunch
impregnable. That Frame will run
strong in the western part Of the
state is also claimed by men who
know the political horoscope of the
state thoroughly, basing their opin-
ion from the support Of the past and
upon reports coming in from
day to day While the Non-Parti-
sian League has been eliminated so
far as FRAMES strength is concerned
the same can not be said in the
case OF Mr.. Burdick.
The voters who have deserted
the Non-Partisan League propo-
ganda are steadily drifting to the
Frainc support and those who are
still standing pat'' for the League
arc cutting wocfully into the Bur-
dick ranks, according to the best
advices obtainable at this writing.
It seems safe forecast at this time
to predict that Of the G2, 900 votes
last at the primaries two years ago.
Frame will receive about $4,000,
leaving the $4,000 balance to be
divided between Burdick, Frazier
and Smith Thinking Republicans
will do we'll to consider the situation
and exercise their best influence in
encouraging the uncertain element
to rally to the Fraine standard.
