In 1883 settled in Codington county,
where he remained for a short time.
He afterwards became a farmer and

building of that part of the state. He
is q level headed, earnest and hard
working kind OF a man. who will stick
to his point and win out by his argu-
ment and perseverance. He is old

the condition confronting the farmer

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Canton, s. Oak, May 90, 191S.-It
affords me pleasure to say that | have
known Mrs. Gertrude S. Mcknight for
about twelve years. l have learned
to know her very we'll and | am pre-
pared to say that l consider her a
superior teacher and school admins
traitor.
During my term of office as state
superintendent of public instruction.
Mrs. Mcknight was county superin-
tendent of Brookings County, and her
work was most efficient. At almost
every meeting of the county super
intendents she was asked to present a
paper and she always gave something
creditable. Her ability was repeated.
ly recognized by her being called upon
to act as a member of important COM
mittees. among which was the state
legislative committee.
Mrs. Mcknight can always be count
ed upon to do most efficient school
work. and l am glad to recommend
her unr~eservedly for any position to
which she may aspire.
Respectfully yours,

The rally of the republicans 10 Sen
ator Mclean for congress is not in
any way a desire TO repudiate Royal
Johnson, rather it is a determination
to have representation in congress
from the second district. Situations
arise constantly in the district that
need congressional attention and these
must be referred 10 members from
other parts Of the state; recently at
least one of importance has been re-
ferred 10 Mclean and he has taken
the matter up with authorities at
Washington. The seat OF a congress
man becomes automatically vacant
when he accepts any other Office IN.
der the United States whether civil.
military or naval. In the event Of
Mr.. Johnson's nomination and cleo
ton this could occur. II is official
that Mr.. Johnson will not leave the
army until the war is terminated,
hence the necessity Of the republicans
TO endorse Mclean and get represen-
tation.
