Platte Tribune

We have noticed among the politi-
cal comments among the newspapers
through the state many comments
relative to the qualifications of the
candidates for Attorney General, and
we agree with the majority of the
newspapers that among all of the
candidates for that important office,
Mr.. Harlan J.. Bushfeld of Miller,
South Dakota, stands head and shout
ders above all of the candillLcs for
ability, character, qualifications and
fitness.
AS a lawyer we do not consider
there is any comparison between Mr..
Bashheld and his competitors for the
honor. Two of the candidates come
from Pierre, a city that ordinarily has
a candidate for most every office, and
the other candidate comes from the
northern part of the state where the
ticket is already well represented.
Mr. Bushfield stands very high
morally, never has anyone ventured
to even insinuate anything against his
character, he has never been engaged
In any shady transactions and as Q
lawyer he is recognized as a leader
among his associates at the har. No
word we can say can too fully com
mend him to the suffrage of the people
and we bespeak for him a glowing
tribute of success both in the primary
election this spring and the general
election this fall. A vote for Harlan
J.. Bushfeld is a vote for an office
who will keep the attorney generals
Office up to that high standard which
IL has heretofore maintained and will
remove 1t from the dickering, wire
pulling of petty politics.

Hand county has a candidate for
the Office of Attorney General of South
Dakota. The candidate is Harlan J..
Bushfield. and we're for him. Ha@
Ian is a Hand county boy, and is now
one of the most prominent attorneys
in this part OF South Dakota. He
served four years as states attorney
of Hand county, and is known to
everyone as a clean, straightforward,
upright citizen. We are proud to
present his picture; and believe it
goes without saying that Harlan will
have the solid support of the repub-
lican party In this county at the pri-
maries. Here's hoping he wins.

Among young men of the state who
the future is bound to develop into
men OF large calibre in public notice,
Is Harlan j. Bushfield. He is a
p%racticing attorney in Miller, but his
fame has already gone abroad.
He was a candidate for the %republi-
can nominee for attorney general in
the last primary election, and came
out OF the contest with so enlarged
an acquaintance that he is now being
mentioned often and favorably as a
prospective man for future honors in
his profession and state politics.

Politics In the state is beginning to
crop out in places as several aspir-
ants for state Offices are making their
desires known. Governor Norbeck
has announced his candidacy for re-
election and will doubtless have no
opposition in his own party. Three
or four candidates for the Office or
Attorney General have already come
out, the only n known much locally
being Harlan J.. Bushfield of Miller.
He should, and undoubtedly will, poll
a good vote in Buffalo county as
those who know him are confident
that he would fill the Office in an &C

Hand County will have a candidate
for a position on the republican state
ticket as Attorney Harlan J. BUSH
field announced today that he would
Ale for the Office of Attorney General.
Harlan has been q citizen of Hand
County since 1888, practically all his
life, hence Is we'll known TO local
people. His education was had In the
Miller schools, from primary to high
school departments, thence to the
wesleyan University at Mitchell, and.
finishing at the University of Minne-
sofa. He has been engaged in the
active practiye OF law IN central South
Dakota now for fourteen years, and
has answered calls TO speak In various
towns and cities of the state. He has
been city attorney, and county attor-
ney in turn and has built up a con-
siderable law practice by hard work
and constant attention 10 business,
His ambition Is not political but a
desire to gain experience In the work
or HIS profession in a larger field.
Numerous friends have expressed the
belief that he Is very well qualified,
and sufficiently well known. to be an
acceptable candidate for this Office.
Hand County has had few favors OF
this kind and may consistently ask
for a place upon the state ticket. Mr..
Bushfield was a candidate four years
age, but It was pointed out at that
time that Faux County had Governor
Bryne, Beadle county Senator Craw-
ford. Hyde county Congressman John
son on the ticket. and that other parts
of the state demanded representation
so Mr.. Caldwell, o. Miner county, was
nominated and elected. This time Mr..
Bushheld's location Is considered to
be better, as Governor Norbeck il the
only candidate OF a neighboring coun-
ty seeking a second term.

It would be highly appreciated act Of recognition if The voters Of his own county would tn
out al The polls on May 18th, and favor him with a generous endorsement.

However, this should be no reason
for sitting back and hoping for little

chance to reduce the numbers of hop
pers, and the injury to the minimum.
