Ith only" a elngl day Intervening unUl
election file republican of South Dakota
are confident of making ft clean aweep
t the 'lection Tuesday. Th democrat
have waged an aggressive campaign, but
they ha v lacked telling argumente and be
cause of JUie exceedingly prosperous condi
tion In the atat have been greatly handi
capped throughout the campaign.
They have been unable to find an over
shadowing lieu whloh would attract the
voters upon which to baae their campaign,
but have jddne their beat under the circum
stances and will have at least to their credit
th fact that on several occasions during
the campaign they succeeded by their
clamor In (momentarily alarming the more
ilmld republicans.
Their campaign haa been waged largely
tn the allegations that republican atate ad
mlnletratlona have been extravagant, but
til republicans hava been able to com
pletely refute all these charges of extrava
gance and how that tha affaire of tba state
under republican rula hava been honestly
and economically administered.
Among other thlnjra, the democrat have
ueed the following figures, representing
stats expenditures Which they claimed were
substantiated by the records. In the effort
to prove their eharges of extravagance
made agalnat republican state admtnls
4 rations: '
Reeora Appropriation.
Appropriations made under Governor
l.ee, m to 1W9. S2,7H; appropriations
made under" Governor Lee, IS to lfc)l, t917
380; under Governor Crawford. 1907 to 190.
1.721.C00. v .
In answering charge of extravagance In
connection with the above figures the re
publicans "hav pointed W that It la ev
ident to any fair-minded peraon that the
latter Hern, state expenditures Under Gov
ernor Crawford from viqf7 to, 1908, can be
nothing more than an estimate until 1900
shall arrive some two .months hence.. It
also has been pointed out that It Is certain
that the expenditures ,fpr this period will
be Substantially smaller than the amount
claimed by. the democrats.
It also Is certain, for the atate records
make It xy that the expendlturea of Gov
ernor Lee's administration from 1857 to 1801,
as given above, are, much smaller than
the y should , be, because. -pf neglect to make
appropriation : that th following repub
lican , administration. . .was consequently
obliged to provide for.
Assuming for the sakeof srgume'nt that
the figures presented by'ths democrats are
correct and fair, there ar other facts to
bs taken Into consideration, and this the
democrats have entirely neglected to do.
(Mr Instance, how do expenditures during
the tfi'o periods mentioned compare With
assessed valuation? 'Are state expendlturea
today .greater or less than under Governor
Lee' administration, when compered with
Ute assessed Valuation of the two periods?
;The assessed valuation of all taxable
property In South Dakota Increased from
lia.U0,9 In to $2S3,6B,26$ Jo, 19Q6 en
Increase of 140 per cent . In ten -year. , Ao
cording to . Ur figures "presented 'by rh
democrats, t expenditures Increased from
(SAW to, i.'7zi,,poq during', tha wnV'fa
years, an Increass. of only 17 per cent.
', Admitting all that, the democrat claim,
atat expenditure have not. kept pace
with the Increase In J valuation by mors
than 4 per cent. Or, ro pvt It the other
way, the republican administration of Gov
ernor Crawford hat salved 4o-th taxpayers
f South Dskota mor then 40 per oent
mora than the -much vaunted administra
tion of .Ooyernor Lee, wben Increased valu
ation Is compared With, expenditure during
the two periods.
The actual saving . la much more thaa
that, t can be proven .by the records, but
th above u tha way It figure out even
when the democrats' own figures ar ac
cepted. : ' . ; . .

Tha harmony which exists In this cam

was aptly Illustrated at the closing repub

Position of Ei.oTrar F.lro4.
Hon. 8. H. Elrod, former governor of
South Dakota, who always haa been a
consistent supporter of what ar known
a th stalwart republicans and who waa
th last atalwart governor of th atate,
evidently 1 on of thos who look upon
a primary as being the same as a con
vention, and that it Is th duty of all
member of th party to abide by tha
result of th primary, as only by doing
thl can party organisations' be main
tained. In the present campaign cx-Qovernor
Elrod has been making speeches In be
half of the entire republican ticket. When
asked by your correspondent if lie was
going to support the republican ticket on
November he made th following Squars-
toed declaration: ' '
"Ten, I am, and am unable to see how
any republican or any oitlsen who voted
for President Roosevelt four year ago
and believes In th 'Roosevelt policies'
can fall to vote for Secretary Taft. Taft
for president and Vessey for governor
should be on the banner of every republi
can In thl State; they are worthy and
able leaders." . ' ,
Lea ss th Tariff.
, "Th tariff has robbed you out of half
of .what you make," said Andrew B. Lee,
th democratic nominee ' for governor of
South Dakota, during a recent address in
Sioux Tails. lis also spoke of th rail
roads having "eaten up" and "confiscated"
the earnings of th people. Mr. Le, how
ever. In not a shining example in support
of his arguments, a th railroad and
the tariff hav s yet been unable to
"eat up" and "confiscate" th $500,000 or
1100,000 which he hss accumulated In
South Dakota most of It under republi
can rule.

Judged thereby.
"In all case in which complaint haa

JOHNSTOWN. Neb., Nov l.-tSpeclal.)-Thursday
night the- large auditorium here
was well .(Died by ar.' audience composed
of representatives of all parties to listen
to the exposition of republican national and
state policies. Myers of Newport, candi
date for stat senstor, opened in proceed
ings with an account of hi former legis
lative -work and of what he propoeed to
ttcmpt hereafter,. If .elected. ; .1
Mr. Myi?rs waa followed by Congressman
M. P. Klnksld, candidate for, re-election,
who In a speech of surprising -eloquence
and force, held , the .attention of his audi
ence for ovtr an hour. He first gav th
history of the homestead bill which bears
his name, denying flatly that his preOe-
cessor had orlatnated the bill ki any form
whatever and that though h had drwn
up What was known as th "two section"
bill, It hod never been presented 'and that
If compared with th "Klhttald," bill It
would be found that not a line of It bad
been taken from the old and abandoned
two wtlon" b'tl. ' " '
As to the adverse criticism msde In re
gard to the lmnrovero'nt required of th
homesteader and the der.iat f the privilege
to commute, Mr. Klnksld said these fea
tures wer net to be charged to him, but
to the committee that -had to . report the
bill. There was much1 opposition t the
liberal terms of the bill as originally drawn
and even the aeoretary of the Interior was
decidedly opposed to them, and the ccfidl
tlons complained of wr amendments, In
sisted on by th committee, ard he had
to get a favorable report in spite of th
Opposition and accp the amendmsnts ir
get no bill at all. He thought It better
to have th bill pass' as It is and seek
better terms In th future He expected,
If returned to congress, to have th bill
modified IA favor of th' homesteader be
fore the time for making flnnl preof ar
rived and had promises of help at that
time. ' ' . ' '
Mr. Klnkald then entered upon an expo
sition of the republican "policy of protection.
He proved that It was absolutely In favor
tf the Worker In every department of labor.
In regard to the charge that g-vds Were
manufactured and sold ' cheaper 1n foreln
markets than at horn e showed that th
tnatanoea In which thl was don were very
rar and that then It waa only the surplus
that wss thus sold bee suae th manufac
turers felt It would be better to sell at a
loss than to atop the production, bank th
fires, stop the wheels, lock th door of
th factories and lay off th Workmen,
leaving them and their families to do th
best they could.
Reviewing the result of republican poll,
clea, h rf!rmed that th unexampled
prosperity of th country began with th
MoKlhley. and Dlng!-jliWBlch protect
from the Importation 'of ju. products of
th cheap labor or foreign ,"cnn tries. H
cntraac tha condition af tn workmen
of this and othsr lan da a shewn in th
better homes and general surroundings
which caused th American laborer to be
mied bv'ali th other workers of ths
world. His motto was. "Let well enough
Slone." rr in the word of the' good book.
I'Hold-fast .that which I good." What
Could to gained by ehangesT Prosperity
waa growing by leap and hounds. Tha
per4 capita had advanced from Kl to 130
ana in a short time would rsaeh K&0, but
the adoption of the Bryan policy or fr
trade, which was contemplated ' by th
democratic revision of the tariff, would
Inundate th country- with th produces of
cheap labor from abroad and bring stagna
tion to every home Industry and enforced
idlenee to th American workman. Th
republican revl.loix already nromlaxt
th next congreaa, would be in favor of th
American people oa th prtnclpl that "H
that careth not for hi own house la worse
than an Infidel."
Th speech as a whole was a dUpasalon
at, clear, powerful explanation of th pro
tective tariff, originating with ami advo
cated by the republican party, a master
piece and eloquent because of Its plain,
direct unmlstskable language and It carried
conviction to th mind of th audience
and disposed f th fallacies of his op
ponents. .-

tonable. Far and wide throughout th
emprl the newspspers of all partlca discuss
with varying degrees of mockery, amass
ment and regret the government's explana
Hon of how what purported to be enor
mously Important utterances of th emperor,
affecting three powers, passed through the
hands of the chancellor and along the lino
of foreign offlc people without seemingly
having been considered by any of them or
read by most of those responsible for the
delicate foreign relations.
' The emperor fully condones Prince von
Buelow's pert In th affair, but the chan
cellor's authority and prestige with the
country hav been so shaken that h may
again ask the emperor to relieve him. The
radical, liberal and socialist Journals utilise
th vent to urge upon th country a de
mand for a mlnletry responsible to th
Parliament and th people.
In addition ta the semi-official accounts
already published. It Is lesrned that the
emperor hand d the manuscript of tha Inter
view, which appeared In th London Dally
Telegraph and the authorship of which Is
stll undisclosed, to Baron von Jenisch, who
wss attached to hla entourage while the
mperor was absent from the capital a
short tlms ago. as th representative of
th foreign office, with th direction to send
It to Prlnc von Buelow. The chancellor
described the note from Baron von Jenisch,
which accompanied the manuscript, as re
ferring to th enclosure aa an article, not
aa an Interview, so that the chanoellor did
not consider it necessary to give It his per
aonal attention.
The manuscript consisted of a number of
small, fllmay-llke sheeta. tha hand writing
being difficult to decipher, and the chan
cellor referred It Herr. von Mueller, the
nilnlster at The Hague, 'who waa acting aa
his private secretary. Th latter in his
turn and without examining the document,
sent It to y foreign office, where, In the
absence of Herr. von Schoen. the secretary
Of foreign affairs. It was read by subordi
nate officials, who did not attach lmpor
tunc to Its contents and returned It through
the proper channels without further exam

Tagllche Rundschau, one of the newspapers
that Is read inecnji'trlstocratlc and mili

gaily Into the world, Infuriating the French,
Russians, Dutch snd Japanese, chilling the
British, exciting bitterness and nervous
irritation on the part of our own people
and undermining our neighbor'a belief in
our reliability." ' '

than a dosen boxes of flowers which had
been given her during the trip through
Indiana Saturday were taken home by
Mr. Bryan. Befor leaving Chicago Mr.
Bryan said:
"I do not csre to make any list of states
in estlmatlrg the result of th election, for
while I think the result Is more certain In
some than In other I would not want to
dlccourag democrats In the lees certain
states by making dlscrlmlnst!ons. I believe
that w will have votes to spar tn the
electoral college, and a considerable ma
jority of th popular vote."
Speaking of his delay In reaching Chicago
Saturday night Mr. Bryan said: "The trip
arranged for the day waa a long one with,
a large number of stops. The meetings were
unexpectedly large and In some place the
speaking stands were fixed some distance
from th' stations. We had to ride slowly
through the crowded streets to reaoh the
stands. Then there were three changes from
one road to another and finally our engine
broke down and th substitute engine hsd
to be turned around at th next station and
that caused a delay. .1 never before hsd
such a series of delay in th csmpalgn. I
am very much pleased with the reports
I have had from Illinois. I believe that th
republican of thl state have an unpleas
ant surprise coming when they read th
returns from the state on election day.' '

itors during the day.

PRINCETON AND ARMY TIE
Cadet Prevent Scoring Only by Fine
Defensive Work.
WEST POINT. N. Y.. Nov. l.-Prlnceton
and the Army played a 0 to 0 tie foot ball
game yesterday afternoon. In the first half
honors were even, but In the seoond the
visitors had everything their own way, only
being prevented from scoring by phenom
enal defensive work on the part of the
cadets. Four times Princeton took th ball
to West Point's 5-yard line and four tlmea
West Point held for downs. Each time the
Army punted out of danger, though twice
the ball was caught within Its 30-yard line,
Greble was largely responsible for West
Point's fine defense, twice tackling Tlbbot
behind the line for a loss.
A strong wtnd favored the cadets In th
first half, but In th second this advantage
was transferred to tha victors, The breeae
and the coJd. made fumbling frequent.- 8ub
stitutlons were slso numerous.
At the last moment Coach Nally decided
to remove Moss from the Army lineup, be
cause of his bad knee. Nix was substituted
as right guard. The lineup of the twu

GOPHERS ARE UNABLE TO SCORE

Helpless When Facing Maroon.
CHICAGO, Nov. 1. Minnesota'a dreaded
foo ball team proved helpless yesterday
In front of the lightning play of Staggs
athletes and Chicago piled up a score of
29 while Minnesota fought vainly to cross
th goal of their rivals.
The scorn of 29 to 0 Is Identical with
that of th first victory of Chicago against
Minnesota In 189S. It also Is the deciding
game of a tie between the teams as the
result of the games of lW-7. the rivals
having failed to clash ln the five yeara
preceding 1906. Yale veterans alao decided
a friendly rivalry when SJagg'a machine
bsat down and overrun the fortifications
prepared by Coach WilUains and his as
sistants. Bhevlin and HeffU-flnger, all one
time stars of the Yal gridiron.
Minnesota'a forward passes were Infre
quent and unusually unsuccessful. Th Chi
cago line withstood th most determined
charge of their opponent and. protected
by th best Interference Chicago haa shown
In any of Its games. Steffcn and Pag tor
