KADOKA TOWNSHIP
ANNUAL ELECTION

The annual election Of Kadoka
Township was held in Kadoka last
Tuesday. The caucus Of last Sat-
urday was a harmonious one there
being only one candidate named
for each of the offices except the
office of the constable where Hor-
ace Engelen and Floyd Briggs
were entered as contestants.
As consequence >. the almost
total absence of rivalry for the
different offices, only light vote
was cast. Only seventeen electors
showed up to register their APP
proval of those running. Con-
sequently all received seventeen
votes with the exception of the
constable where little furry
made the outcome uncertain until
the last ballot was counted. Two
voters marked the squares for both
men and were consequently thrown
out. Of the remaining fifteen
Briggs received eight and Engelen
seven, thus electing the former.
The officers to serve for the
coming year are as follows:
Carl Taute, Supervisor for three
years: A. c. Long, Treasurer;
Ed. Collins, Clerk; H. w. Rhodes,
Assessor; Geo. H. Decker, Justice
of the Peace; Floyd Briggs,
Constable.

ODD FELLOWS HOLD RALLY

Last Saturday night 81 men
came out to the office of j. f..
Buckmaster where the advise
ability of starting local branch
of the order was discussed. AS
matters stand and have stood for
some time in the past, local Odd
Fellows have been obliged to go
to Belvidere to attend lodge No.
243 there. This has always been a
great Inconvenience for some of
our local folks and few would
brave the wind and weather regu-
larly to be in attendance at Bel
videre.
The rally was for the purpose of.
ascertaining what could be done
to organize local lodge. Count
ing those who are members and
those who have signified their in
tention of joining, there are 54
men here to start things going
and it was the opinion of those
assembled to go ahead with the
organization of q local branch.

MORE NEW SETTLERS

Another emigrant car arrived
last Saturday morning from Stick
ney, S. Oak. 1t was Fred Tritle
with his car loaded to the top with
all the necessities of successful
farming. He will move onto land
i'm Washabaugh county.
Tom Sperl and family arrived
from Chamberlain Monday in
their automobile. Tuesday morn
ing two ears of goods came for
them. Our reporter found them
loaded to the roof with all the
needed modern agricultural i'm
plements and tools, in fact they
had everything needed for real and
successful farming. Included in
their load was fine bunch of
real mich cows.
They will move out at once onto
their ranch II miles south of Ka-
doka, where they will start build
ing at once and turn the fertile
sod Of Washabaugh county into
real producing soil at which task
the Press wishes them success. A..

lated on bringing such splendid
families here for settlement.

If there is any more evidence

TO reduce taxes, the problem so
dear to the heart of not only the
good people Of Jackson county,
but of the entire United States, we
do not know how to show it.
These facts certainly tell their
story and any one can see where
their taxes are spent. 1t is also
plainly evident now that the
county road is not getting the
hons share and responsible for
high taxes as claimed in the alleg-
ed petition.
These figures do not lie and if
we still are not convinced let us
go right to the commissioners and
ask them to explain. They are in
viting the light of competent in
spection and will gladly tell any
one what they have done and
what they are doing. "Ye shall
know/the truth and the truth will
make you free" says the Good Book
and this is also true of taxation.
Facts will remove unwarranted
suspicion if brought for examina-
tion into the light.

CHURCH NOTES, MARCH 9.

I'VE live but once. That ex-
preston is true, all right, but
usually it is said with careless
air implying, Whats the use?"
Make the most of it for your own
selfish benefit or pleasure" Like
many another true saying, it is
mishandled and misinterpreted. We
do live but once. However, this
fact should make us live the very
best life of which we are capable.
Surely you have some pride of
workmanship, and you'll never be
given another whack at this job of
living. And as general thing
these quoters of I'VE live but
once" say it with sort of air
meaning, You'd better hurry up;
it will soon be over" That's
where they are the furthest wrong.
I'VE live but once; yet that is al
ways. Every impulse to which we
give momentum-mental, spirit
ual, or moral-will linger on and
on in the world as a part of some
human yet to live. The breadth
of our influence and of the influ-
ence of those we influence will de-
termine the extent Of the good or
harm we shall permanently add to
the world. Surely we live but
once; yet that is always" ."-Strick-

STILL HAPPY THOUGH SINGLE

The Press came out with the
announcement the other day Of
the wedding of Alfred Pettijohn
at Arvado, Wyoming. When AL
came home he was surprised that
the Press had married him off
without his knowledge. He took
this mighty serious occasion in the
best of humor for he soon found
out that some one had played a
good one on him.
The truth of the matter is that
AL. sent a telegram to the folks
here from Wyoming saying that
Bill and l will be home the last
Of the week.. Now AL. gave some
friends this message to put on the
wire and the latter being a practi-
cal joker scratched cut the first
word of the message and inserted
"Inez". Now the folks at home
we'll knew Bill the travelling COM
panlOn OF AL, but they also were
familiar with Inez and therefore
surmised the worst. Everything
was gotten shipshape at home to
receive the son and his new COM
panion. The Press heard of the
happy event and told the world.
Great however was the surprise
when Alfred stepped off the cars
accompanied by his old pal Bill not
Inez. Now whether he gets mar
ried or not, that is his business.
When we heard he was married we
told his many friends and that was
our business as newspaper.
We've done our duty it is now up
to AL.

LAW DEMANDS
VOTERS, REGISTER
VOTERS MUST REGISTER BE.
FORE NEXT MONDAY TO
VOTE MARCH 25

In some parts Of the state there
Is a move on foot to advise the
voters not to register for the pri-
mary election March 25th. One of
the reasons given for not register
ing is the statement on the regis
tration card that the registrant
intends to vote the ticket of
the party, for which he registers
next fall in the general election.
This has been misconstrued by
some to mean that the voter, by
signing the registration card is
bound both legally and morally to
vote the ticket Of the party for
which he signs up at the primary.
This would be partial disfranchise-
ment of the electorate and would
no doubt be welcome by politicians
of a certain brands who could thus
carry around every mans vote in
their vest pocket and figure by
methods of simple arithmetic just
what the outcome Of the big con-
test in the fall would be.
The intent of the law however,
is that at the primary a true ex-
preston of party sentiment be
brought out to prevent members
OF one party from assisting to
nominate weak sister of the
opposing party, who would be an
easy victim for them to defeat in
the general election. This pro-
vision Of law exists in many states
and is commendable. The law does
not intend to hogtie voters for the
general election. Every voter will
be both legally and morally free to
cast his ballot as he chooses.
Another reason given by some
for not registering is the fact
that provision Of the law states
that an affidavit may be made out
at the time of election by the
voter. This is true, but it should
he noticed that there is modifi-
cation to this, which states that a
voter must produce evidence that
he had good and just reasons for
not registering. Otherwise
special force of clerks might be
needed to swear in votes and the
election delayed seriously. Let no
voter throw away his inalienable
right in free and unbiast express
sion of his preference of the cam
didates he wishes nominated. If
voters fail to register, it will mean
that few will pick the candidates
that are to run and for which
voters will have to cast their bal
lots in the fall whether they want
to or not.
AS this paper goes to press, there
have been registered in Jackson
county a total of 566 out Of 1900
registration cards sent out or less
than so percent. In Washabaugh
county registrations have come in
from 165 voters of 800 cards sent
out.
The Press desires to make a last
appeal to the good people of Jack
son and Washabaugh counties to
send in their cards and to do it
while they are reading this. The
law says that registration must be
complete within ten days before
election which is March tenth or
next Monday.
