make the race for governor of South
Dakota as a petition candidate or In
any other way. llo says so himself
in language which cannot he mistaken
and which sends foith Die ring of
absolute loyally to his party and to
i lie recognized rules of fairness in n
fight In which he lost out by a small
margin hi the best contest ever put
up by a man singly handed within the
state.
lie said today :
"Complete returns show that I nm
beaten , which ends the campaign HO
far as I am concerned. All talk ot
my Independent candidacy Is without
foundation. I am a republican and
the men Indorsed by the people at
Iho republican primaries shall have
my support. I am proud of the fact
that the official returns show lhat
Iho voters who defeated mo were men
Into whose faces I had never looked
and Into whose counties I had ncvei
gone. I am proud of my homo county
with its : i,12S for Egan and 715 fet
I am doubly proud of the
fact- that wheie the most slander and
vlllillcalion of my private life anil
public dial actor was conducted was
wTiero I received the greatest in. .
dorsonient from the men and women
of South Dakota.
"It was a great light. I had no or
ganlzation , no newspapers and sup
port except the voluntary conlilbn
lions of time and money from a few
loyal friends. I fought the light irce
from personalities and directly to the
people. I had nobody looking nfloi
my interest at the polls except In mj
homo town. The greatest vote that
was given me was the free and volnn
tary ottering , uninfluenced and unln
limldated , from the people who liar
attended my meetings , read my plat
form and understood the situation
The consideration and favor showr
imo during the campaign Is honoi
r. enough for one man and although de

of the scare from Kgan's heavy vote

TAXING THE DOGS.
People With Young Cogs and Peopli
With Old Ones , All Object.
"Are you going to tax that poor lit
tie thing ? " said the Norfolk Ia'v ti
the dog collector who had his oyc
glued on the little dog in question
"Why he's only six months old , am
all last summer he was sick and
pulled him through with blood mcdl
cine. lie's bettor now and > on ar
going to tax him ? "
One lady confronted the oollcclo
with a story just opposite. "Why
have had that dog for thirteen years ,
she said , "and I never had to pay la
for him. Now in his old ago you ar
going to tax him. It's a shame a dir
grace to the city of Norfolk. "
"I'd advise farmers to leave the !
dogs at homo lest the dog catche
take the animals when Iho owners ar
in town , and end the canine lives ,
said ono man.

An Office Is Robbed.
While Dr. II. J. Cole was abser
from his oflico al the noon hour ,
thief entered his dental parlors an
stole $20 In money and about $2
worth of gold which Is used for flllln
teeth. The thief unlocked a door an
rolocked It upon leaving. No clue t
the thief has been found.
He-fort ) leaving the olllco Dr. Col
locked the door leading to his prlvat
odlce. In a drawer of a ease ho ha
left a $10 and two ? : . bills. The thh
probably opened the door with a ske
eton key and took the money. Tli
door was locked when Dr. Cole n
turned. In the work room ho too
over an ounce of gold , but left Iw
sheets of gold In the same drawe
which , ire valued at about ? I0. ! Tli
theft Is bolleved to have been by bom
talent and the fact thai the remalnln
gold sheets were not taken , make
u thu doctor believe thu thief was in
lamillnrlth till' Millie ut tiio motiii.
Other dentists In the tlty were no-
tilled to he on their guard , It being
thoughl possible thai thieve * who
make a practice of stealing gold
from dentists' olllces were "making"
till * city.
The authorities are on the lookout
for the offenders. Some months ago
thieves entered Dr. llolden's olllces ,
which adjoin those of Dr. Cole , and
stole a number of valuable pictures
which were hanging on the wall.
Two Attempts at Burglary.
Last night was a great night for bur
glaries In Norfolk , but none proved
successful , for the thieves wont away
fruitless ,
The Krahn tailor shop was thu scone
of an attempt at robbery , the thieves ,
using a glass-cutter , cut half the pane
of a i ear window away and endeav
ored to tnko the pane out by cutting
away tin' putty. They were piobably
frightened away by employes working
In the kitchen of the Merchants cafe.
The Ed Hecker cigar store was an
other goal for the thieves , a similar
attempt at burglary being made there.
The panes In the rear windows were
loosened , bill had they been taken out
the opening would have been too
small to allow an entrance and the
thieves probably gave It up as a bad
Job.
Some years ago when the Krahn
shop was located on Second street ami
Norfolk avenue thieves got away with
? ; tOO worth of clothing.
Had to Fight the Pair.
Jainos Miles , a Norfolk liveryman ,
had an encounter with a white man
and a negro , employes at the S. T ,
Nappor ranch west of town , over : i
livery bill , and Is walking with a cane ,
Miles could have whipped either man
alone , ho says , but when two com
bined against him , lie stood no show ,
The negro was Joe Phipps , the no
torlous Hattle Creek coloied citizen
who has a long police court record In
Norfolk anil who was jailed circus day
for lying drunk under the seats sit llu
show.
Phipps and tlio white- ranch employe
weio being driven homo by Miles wlici
a dispute over the faro arose.
"We'll not argue this. " said Miles
"We'll drive into this farm yard am
I'll Whip yon , " speaking to the wliitt
man.
So ho drove in and stopped the
team. The light started and Miles was
getting tlio bettor of the battle whoi
the negro jumped In and made an 1111
