SOUTH DAKOTA HAS
A NON-PARTISAN LEAGUE

Michel, S. D.. Aug. 14.-South Da-
kota is the only state in the Union
having what is called non-partisan
league party, according to O. S. Ev-
ans of this city. head Of the mons
partisan league party of South De-
kota, as well as of the nom partisan
league of this state.
Mr.. Evans is secretary and man
ager of the South Dakota non-paris-
an league and was elected state chair
man of the non-partisan league party
at the March primary election.
The two organizations are dis
tinctly separate" according to Fir.
Evans. The non-partisan league Of
South Dakota is merely the state
branch of the original organization,
while the non-partisan league party
is the standard under which the state
and congressional ticket will be pee
sented to the voters at the November
election.
"In other words where the non-
partisan league has been organized
the leaguers have endorsed the can
didates of other parties. In North
Dakota, for instance. they endorsed
the republican candidates while in
Minnesota they divided on the repub-
lican and farmer-labor candidates.
But in South Dakota they found it to
their advantage and liking to support
the candidates of no other party and
the formation of the non-partisan
leag euparty of this state was the
result. A complete state and con-
gressional ticket viii be placed be-
fore the voters of this state under the
name South Dakota non-partisan
League party at the November cleo
ton.
None of the present candidates for
president of the United States has
been endorsed by the league party Of
this state, Mr.. Evans asid 1t has

farmer-labor party, viii enter this
state August % on a speechmaking
tour in behalf of his candidacy. His
itinerary calls for speech in each
district of the state and league party

each of these addresses.
At the end Of Mr.. Christensen's
tour the bipartisan league party of
South Dakota will decide whether
the party shall endorse and support
