fASSOCIATBO PRKfS DISPATCHi
LONDON, March 22. An official re
port says that all the proposed move
ments of the troops in Ulster have
been carried out.
"These movements", the report says,
"are of a purely precautionary kind,
with the object of protecting depots of
arms, ammunition and other govern
ment property against possible risks.
There is no intention of moving troops
into Ulster except for these and like
purposes."
Kind George conferred with his cab

seemed less alarming and the public is
inclined to wait patiently for the ex
pected statement tomorrow in the
House of Commons regarding the
movement of troops.

rASSOCIATEI) PRESS DISPATCH !
LONDON'. March 22. The situation
which Great Britain is facing as a
rtsult of the shooting of William S.
Penton in Mexico, not only is not
novel, but even almost unimportant
ompnrd to the events of l.S59-ti2.
A list of outrages committed during
those three years befoto the llritisii
government joined France anil Spain
in the intervention which led to the
stating of Maximilian of Austria up
on the Mexican throne, has been
brought forward in part as follows:
Dr. Duval, a British subject - who
was arrested in April, 1S59, by the
clerical. General Marquez, while at
tending to wounded Juaiistas after
their defeat at Tacubuya. was shot
A British subject named J. L. In
r.es was hunted through the moun
tains about Oaxaca with a price on
his head.
British Vice Consul Bodmer was
shot dead on his own balcony while
tiying to save a Mexican.
Mr. Keale was shot by bandits on
bis farm near Mexico City.
There were several other murders
o:' British subjects of humbler posi
tions. A Mr. Burnands factory was twice
plundered and he was severely
vounded by the robbers, so that he
lost an arm; his wife went mad
j'rnm the shock.
Financially, too, the British sub
jects suffered greatly through these
three years. Claims submitted by
British subjects to their legation up
to April 28, 1S61, amounted to $1S.-
000,000 for such outrages as "forced
supplies," "stoppage of factory,"
'plunder, death and mutilation:" "im
prisonment and sentence of death,"
and simple plunder.
In November, 1S60, the Clerical
General Miramon seized $060,000 in
silver which had been deposited at
the British legation as the property
of bondholders, and a few months
later a Juarist general seized a con
voy of some hundreds of thousands
of dollars' worth of silver bullion be
longing to British subjects and on Its
way to the coast. The Juaiist gov
ernment also suspended payment of
the interest on its foreign loan, which
was then mainly held in England.

Name, But New Wing of

tion Amounts to Samo
Thing
(Special to The Republican)
PIERRE, S. D., March 22. The po
litical pot in South Dakota Is rapidly
approaching the boiling point in anti
cipation of the general primary elec
tion to be held on Tuesday. There are.
several features in connection with the
approaching primary to interest the
people outside as well as inside of
South Dakota, In the first place, it
will be the first primary held under the
new law, which provides for a com
bination of the direct primary and thn
convention system. South Dakota was
a pioneer in adopting the direct pri
mary system but after giving it a good
tryout the people decided by a refer
endum vote that they wanted a little of
the old convention plan mixed in with
the system of making nominations for
public office.
The new law provides for the elec
tion of delegates to two separate con
ventions for each political party a
majority and a minority convention.
Each of these selects a list of candi
dates to go on the primary ballot for
the final selection of a ticket by the
party. The law also inc'udeB a party
registration feature, and another pro
vision giving the State committee of
the dominant party the right to make
appointments to office.
In the general primary to be held on
Tuesday the several parties will name
candidates for United States Senator
and Representatives in Congress, anil
for Governor. Lieutenant Governor,
Secretary of State, State Treasurer and
minor state officers to be voted for at
the next state election.
South Dakota was the original
stamping ground of the Progressive
Republicans and the fight this year is
the same old battle between the Pro
gressives and the Stalwarts. The Pro
gressive party does not exist in name
but the so-called progressive wing of
the Republican party amounts to the
same thing. It is composed of the men
who took up the LaFolIette presidential
boom when it was a mere bubble and
stood by it faithfully until it burst,
when they swung into line for Roose
velt and carried the State for him In
1S12 by a big plurality.
Numerically strong and apparently
in gooi fighting trim, the progressives
lined up for the battle this year with a
feeling of confidence engendered by
their successes in the past. At the
same time every progressive is going
to meet with stiff opposition.
Most interest naturally centers in the
contests for United States senator and
governor. The contest for the senator
ship is a straight-out factional fight
without any regard to questions of pub
lic policy. Senator Geo. I. Crawford,
whose term will expire next March, is
a candidate for re-election. His prin
cipal opponent is Congressman Charles
H. Burke, who is now serving his sev
enth term as representative of the Sec
ond district. Crawford is identified
with the dominant faction of the Re
publican party in this State and was a
leader in the fight that resulted in the
overthrow of the old organization, and
the triumph of the progressives. Burke
on the other hand, enjoys p wide per
sonal popularity and is counted on to
make -i good fight for the Crawford
toga. Should the Democrats carry the
State the senatorship would go to E. S.
Johnson of Yankton, for many years
the South Dakota member of the Na
tional Democratic Committee.
Within the Republican ranks there is
a spirited three-cornered contest for
the governorship. Governor P. M.
Byrne, who headed the victorious pro
gressive Republican ticket two years
ago, is a candidate for rennmination.
Opposed to him as the standard bearer
of the stalwart or minority faction of
the Republican party is Henry B. An
derson. A third candidate in the field
is R. o. Richards, who is running as an
independent candidate. Mr. Richards
