Patterson gave a Dig in honor OF
his departure to Vale. Himself and
family. We I understand that all
rights and patents on his we'll known
Scare Crow has been purchased by
the Hon. F.. J. Donahue. This was
great benefit to all the farmers, es-
peo1ally at corn planting time. The
farewell to Mr.. Patterson was attend
ed by large number of friends and
acquaintance from far and near.
The music for the dig was furnished
by the we'll known fiddlers, D. d. and
d. p. Donahue. Mr.. =. III. Brown.
who also enjoyed the evening, bought
Mr.. Patterson's farm, which adjoins
the large Brown farm, situated in the
famous Buffalo Gap, where once Bar
mum and Baily herded this species,
now said to have no buffalo. no
Barnum, and not even a Baily left to
tell the stories to the children. We
wish Mr.. Patterson success and hap
piness on the new farm near Vale.

the fortune to visit the Hon. T. S.

Await Reaction Of
Nation Endorsement
Wilson for 3rd Term

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. United
Press. Politicians in Washington
are awaiting the reaction of the ma
tons endorsement Of President Will
son fer a third term, by the demo-
cratic state convention in South Da-
kota.
That the president himself will be
candidate is deemed extremely UNI
likely. The state of his health would
not permit him to withstand the rig,
ors Of another campaign, it is under
stood
His friends believe that endorse
ment of Wilson really is endorsement
of his administration, and if it is re-
ccived favorably by members of his
party throughout the country, II is
likely the president would be en-
couraged to give his backing to dem,
ocratic candidate, probably William
G. McAdoo, who would run on a plat
form containing planks promising a
business administration" and ratifi-
cation Of the peace treaty, If it is still
hanging fire at that time. The rec
concentrations contained in Wilson's
message to congress which have been
acted on, probably will be indicated
in this platform.
Pending a thorough survey of the
sentiment Of the nation following the
| South Dakota nomination, other DEM
ocratic presidential possibilities are
holding back. Not one has come into
the open as yet. II the next few
weeks show that the Wilson admins
tration has lost confidence and that
a Wilson man" candidate would not
be popular, the Democratic party, it
! is presumed, will look for candidate
who has had nothing to do with the
present regime in Washington--a
man like Herbert Hoover or Governor
Cox, of Ohio.
The South Dakota Republican en-
dorsement of Leonard Weed apparent
ly was expected. Wood seems to be
the foremost candidate in the G. O.
P. rank just now, Hiram Johnsons
stock-at least as far as can be OBJ
served at Misunderstanding de-
clined somewhat since the peace
treaty ceased to be permanent is
