opinion that under the specifications the

Mr. Wickham declare i that his bid was

Cadet Asks Reinstatement.
HA WARDEN, la., Sept. 13. (Special.)
An effort will be made by the friends of
Albert E. Crane of Hawarden, one of the
seven West Point cadets dismissed for
the basing of Robert Sutton, to secure his
reinstatement. Of the eight dismissed two
years ago for haslng, six were sfterward
reinstated and this fact gives Mr. Crane's
friends hope that President Taft can be
Induced to allow him to complete his
course. Young Crane bears a splendid
reputation here as a quiet, reserved and
rather dignified young man, and it Is
positively asserted that his part In the
haslng was Incidental. It has been his
ambition all his life to graduate from
West Point, and the fact that he stood
twenty-first in a class of 112 1 Is pointed
to as evidence of his earnestness and his
ability.

Dakota as to the republican primary next
year, a statement by Editor Crisman of
the ' Redfield Journal-Observer, who has
always been a stalwart, has created a good
deal of .comment here. CommantUig on
the announced candidacy of Mr. Egan, the
Journal-Observer concludes:
South Dakota republicans have beoome
embroiled In a disgraceful political row
because of the selfish ambitions of a few
men ot no more ability than hundreds of
others In the state. It is time the clean,
upright men of the party got together, laid
side their personal ambitions and gave
the people a chance to unite on a set ot
principles in which they believe. Fifteen
men such as E. C. Erlckson of Elk Point,
A. W. Campbell of Aberdeen, Governor
Vessey, Congressman Martin, State Treas
urer Johnson, Senator Byrne of Kaulkton
and Senator Peter Norbeck of Redfield
could get together, formulate a set ot
principles and rally at least three-fourths
of the republicans of the state to their
support and bury the two factions now
fighting over the political spoils so deep
we would never again be bothered with
them. Is It not worth trying?
Of those suggested as leaders ot thi
party, four have been progressives and
three stalwarts. ' "
