The Kadoka press. [volume] (Kadoka, S.D.) 1923-current, 1924-04-04
McMASTER AND JOHNSON
HAVE SAFE LEAD

The Press in a chorus with all
the weeklies that come to our desk,
gave last weeks primary election
to governor McMaster for U. S.
Senator and to Calvin Coolidge for
the presidency.
Owing to bad road conditions
throughout the state returns We're
slow in coming in and up TO the
time when we were forced to go
to press the candidates We're lead
ing as reported having just been
confirmed by n special wire TO this
paper
But no sooner had the Press got
into the hands of its readers, when
the tables turned on Coolidge and
Johnson took the lead. Several
times the lead was again snatched
from him by narrow margins but
finally Johnson swung in to stay
and his official vote now stands at
4O,282 against Coolidge 3S,5l5.
McMaster holds lead of more
than 1000 over senator Sterling:

on state and national issues and
the result is therefore inconc'uslvc
of the attitude of the folks OF
Washabaugh county. They all did
however have a chance to express
their on;nion relative to tho memb-
ers of the school. and HIGHWAY
board and the result was as FOL
