The campaign now 'closed In south Uakot :
will bo long remembered as the metii acri
monious in the history of the tate. Na
tional iuues haxo been Involved to the ex
tent of ( his campaign bng ! the p'eltmlmrj
skirmish over the election two vears hon-i
of a Micrchjor to Senator I'ettlgrexv th <
struggle' being between I'cltlgrpw , baekei
by the fuslonlats and silver pentlnifnt of tin
stole , anil a straight or administration re
publican. Thus the retult of the comlnj
election will haxe Important bearing on thi
position of the state two years from nov
with refeicnco to I * taking Its place In tin
frco sllxcr or lepubllean column
Although free sliver coin-go has beci
olllclally declared by the chairman of th
populist fitnto committee to be "as big fi
humbug as the tariff question and about ,1
dead pn I'sue. " the fusion orators ha\o n
Interval * fought to Inject life Into it , wll :
ImltlTi'iont siiLtefs. They speedily found Mia
the railroad question furnished them ai
Issue with which they could more cisll ,
hoodwink th - voters of the mate. There
fore their chief bittlo cry has been "Shal
the railroads or ( he people rr.lo. " Penato
I'rttlpre.v has had personal charge of th
campaign for the fuslcul.us nnd the DRIIIM- -
he ids of the democrat ! : , populist and pllve
republican state committees b.ixe merol
carried out his wishes In directing the cam
palgn. The cry of nilroad domination o
the state Is expected to fool voters \\h
permit designing politicians to do thel
thinking for them.
How little foundation there li for th
fusionlsts' chpiges that the republican pait
of the ptate Is committed to the Interest
of the railroads and against the Interest
of the people Is shown by the fact that th
republican state platform contains a plan
emphatically pledging the support of th
party to the successful termination of th
now celebrated rate case , which has bee
appealed to the United States supreme cour
by the railroads , which were defeated In th
federal court of this circuit.
riiiuiKC Tlu-lr Attitude- .
The carnpnlsn has developed man
changeof atilltude of prominent men an
In these changes the republicans ha\
much the brtter of It. Colonel Mehli
elected attorney general on th
fusion ticket two years ago , has been a
onts with his party leadnra for some Urn
although ho went to the front durin
the war with Spain and is a competent an >
honorable attorney , lie was denied a renom
Inatlon by I bo fusion mnungers by dlrec
tiou of Senator Pettlgrew. Judge C. S. Pal
mer , one of the most noted political aero
bats in the northwest , a man wholly de
xold ot even a hcmblmice of political prln
clplo aud who is known OH the Jonah c
South Dakota politics , because ho bear
the unen\lable reputation of being able t
make moro political blunders in a gl\c
time than any other man lu the state , xxn
given Origsby's place on the tlcke
fiiigsby Ihes In Slouv Falls , the homo c
Senator Pettlgrew , and it I& the opinion t
well informed men thit If the two me
were candidates for the saiao office whei
both are 5 nown the greater popularity c
( Jrigsby woulil give him nn pvcrnhclm
In ? victory over the "pickerel statesman.
Another prominent man who has icccntl
repudiated the fuslontsts is Senator Kjli
who has many friends amoug the democrat
and populists. Then there la Hon. Bartlel
Tripp , United States minister to Austria
Hungary din Ing Cleveland's last admlnls
( ration , \\lio for years has been thn lead
Ing democrat of the state. Urlgndler Ger
eral Mark W. Shenfo Is another llfelon
democrat who has repudiated the luslo
ticket. There are also Hon. 11 L Louck
for years leader of the populists and tl
father of populism In South Dakota Hoi
D. W. Flick of Uapld City , -who did as muc
or moro than any other one man to can
the Black Hills for the fusionlsts tw
years ago , Colonel J. W. Jones , editor an
publisher of the Lead Dally Call , a man wli
has stood high In the councils of the fuslc
parties and who did valiant work for tl
fusion ticket In that part of the state tw
years ago. Colonel Steele of Deadwood , ot
of the most prominent In the old demi
cratlc organization and ono of the best ar
moat cffe tlxe orators In the state , has all
declined to train longer -with the fuslc
forces.
The significance of these changes enn be
ter bo understood when it is iccalled thi
two jears ago all these men , with the c-
ccptlon of Hon. Bartlett Tripp. who had n >
then returned to the United States fro
his foielgn post of duty , acthelj puppoit'
the fusion tlcl.et , which even then was on
partially successful , the governor and tl
few others fleeted by the faslonhts ha-
Ing won by only a. few hundred votes. Th
jcar , with all these men and their frlem
strongly opposed to the fusion ticket , the :
would seem to be good grounds for the bi
lief that the republican ticket will be elect !
by anywhere from fi.OOO to 10,000 majorlt
