Tallowbellv says we have in
sulted him. We beg to differ. It
has been proven conclusively sev
eral times that he is not the cali
ber that can be insulted.
Quite a little haa been said by
the enemies of C. L. Millett about
the work he did for this part of
the state while a member of the
last legislature. The publication
and circulation of a letter from
J. Morris, speaker of the house
during the session of 1911, will be
of interest to Mr. Millett's frie-ndt
and will disprove any dirty in
sinuations on the part of his
enemies that he was idle while a
member of the house.
About lA-pril 15th Landlord
Goodrich, of the hotel at Cotton
wood, received a letter from Dr.
Lavery, in which he expressed
the hope that Mr. Goodrich could
support his candidacy for re
presentative, "since Scotty
Brown had left the county and
state." That was on the day
that Scotty visited Cottonwood or
his recent trip into the state. Mr.
Goodrich promptly replied, stat
ing that Scotty

come back,'
and someone else than Lavery
would get his support. Scotty has
sure "come back."
We have before us a copy of
some Lavery literature contain
ing a photo of the sly old pill
mixer and a fitting eulogy writtei
by the Fairplay editor, a lot of
villification of ourselves et al,
some editorials by Mix, and a
copy of M. K. Curran's letter
which has been rehashed in tlit
Fairplay and paraded on its
front page since April 17th.
Taken as a whole it is about the
Weakest, silliest, most sickening
endorsement of a man who would
aspire to public office that has
ever conic to our notice.
Lavery and some of his satel
Hies were in the city on Thurs
day of last week, the day of the
celebration. A few of the faith
ful gathered during the evening
•t the office of one of our towns
men, to review the campaign and
decide upon further work, we
are told. A couple of the boys
found it necessary to speak
plainly to Lavery, who insisted
that they put in a good word for
him here and there, saying, "Doc
there are precincts within this
county where to mention your
•anie would cost us every vote
that will be cast."
The nomination of Chester N
Leedom, A. G. Granger and Al
bert Norby as the three represen
tatives from this county for the
•ext session of the legislature
Will mean that we will be re
presented by three of the best
men iit the county, men who
liave made an enviable record for
themselves as consistent work
ers for the interests of the farm
ers in this part of the state.
They are men whom it is a
pleasure to meet and whose bon
Asty, integrity and ability have
iiever questioned even by the peo
ple who seek to nominate their
opponents..
The many frends of Enoeh Mc
$a^r will be glad to know( that
jkjs nomination is practically as-
Mr. McKay has for the
past two years proved himself
most efficient officer. He has
been identified with the move
ment inaugurated by the present
officers which has saved the tax
payers $20,000 during the year
of 1911. He has not betrayed the
confidence placed in him by the
citizens of the county and has
performed the duties of his of
fice in a staunch, fearless manner
that has made him hundreds of
friends among the farmers and
business men of the county and
a few enemies among those who
have heretofore used the county
treasurer's office as a public
feed trough. His re-nomination
and election will be a move on
the part of the voters to keep in
office a man whose interests lay
in the performance of his duties
so that the tax payers will re
ceive a dollar's worth of work
for each dollar in salary paid
out.
McCormick, the head of the
harvester trust, is one of the
most enthusiastic supporters of
the Roosevelt candidacy. 4l few
weeks ago the papers that would
iccept the plate matter boosting
Roosevelt received an order for
advertising from the trust, and
now the McCormick people come
forward with the offer of more
free plate, embodying McCor
mick 's statement or reply to the
charges filed by the government
in its efforts to dissolve the
trust. Roosevelt refused, while
president, to allow suit eommenc
against the trust, hence is a
«OOI
1 fellow, while the Taft ad
ministration must have the op
position of McCormick and his
fellow magnates. The effort to
work the publishers, or rather,
force them into the Roosevelt
ineup, is a smooth one, and will
work with many.
TAFT AND TEDDY
A Jefferson county Pennsyl
vanian, who is one of the unique
characters of the county has been
engaged in farming and lumber
ing on a small scale, and is now
keeping a hotel. He speaks with
a slow, inimitable drawl and is
withal a steadfast republican.
Last Monday a commercial trav
eler asked him for his views on
the contest for the republican no
mination for president after
some deliberation Jake replied:
"Wa'al, now, I dunno, but 1
kind of like this ma-an Roos-e
velt he knows what to do when
lie gets in a bo-ox 'You see they
got into an awful snarl out there
in the Philippine l-lands, but Mr.
Roos-e-velt knew what to do, and
he sent a fellow by the name of
Ta aft out there and he smoothed
tilings purt.v we-ll. Then these
here fellows down in Cuba got to
kickin' up a kind of a ruction and
Mr. Roos-e-velt sent this here ma
an Ta-aft down there and lie
smoothed things purty we-ll. And
then you know Mr. R. he stole a
piece of ground down there some
wheres about Pan-a-ma, and he
wanted folks to think he got it
honest, so he called in this here
T. and got him to fix it up on
pa per so t! at it looked about
ha-alf decent. And you know
Mr. R. was president about seven
veais and a ha-alf and he got the
republican party and business anc
the whole county into a hell of a
mullix, and he put this ma-an Ta
aft in to see if he couldn't fix
this up to-o, and it is a devil of a
big undertaking and no fellow
could get through with it inside
of about eight years so 1 think
we ought to stick to Mr. R. and
give his ma-an Ta-aft about four
years more in which to finish his
jo-ob.—Toled# Timet, fViday

AltTHUK 0. BERNAU
The record of Arthur C.
Uernau, of Cottonwood, who as
pires to the nomination for re
gister of deeds on the republican
ticket, shows him to be of excep
tional ability. He is a graduate
of
itl*e
Cedar Rapids (Iowa) Busi­
tffl? PHILIP WMStfLY fHStrf«W, PffTLIP, SOtTTH DAKOTA. WAV id, 1912
ness College, worked for eigh
teen months in the employ of an
abstract and insurance firm at
West Union, Iowa, and for .two
years was private secretary to
the master mechanic of the
Omaha, Dubuque and Cherokee
divisions of the Illinois Central,
lie also acted as accident clerk
for this system. He came to
Stanley county five years ago,
and for most of that time has
'en engaged in the real estate
business at Cottonwood.
The Review endorses the can
didacy of Mr. Bernau and asks
the voters of Philip and Stanley
county to give him their sup
port in the primaries. He is a
clean young man, possessing qual:
fieations that designate him as
the best man seeking the office.
Put a cross before his name
when you mark your ballot June
4th.
THE HARVESTER TRUST SUIT
Minneapolis Tribune: The
president did his best to deal
with the harvester trust by the
Roosevelt method—which is an
excellent way when it works—
before beginning suit to dissolve
it. His award is abuse for not aet
ing sooner. But that is another
story. The suit is business, not
politics.
One big trust or combination
after another has been dissolved
into its constituents without in
jury to any property right, in
such a way as to restore the pow
er to compete, if the owners wish
to compete.
Of course, while the owners re
main identical, they do not wish
it, but the government cannot
help that. AH it can do is to im
pose a form in which it is open to
anybody who can get in any way
control of one of the constituents
to compete with another if he
wants to.
In trying to reach this result
in the tobacco trust dissolution,
the courts met great difficulties
on account of the blanket mort
gages and other securities so
that it is not yet certain that
the decree can be executed with
out some liquidation. This may
be one reason why talk of a re
ceiver is connected with the be
ginning of the harvester trust
suit.
The harvester trust controls a
far larger proportion of the
whole trade than the steel trust
perhaps as large a proportion as
the Standard Oil or the Tobacco
trust. The government asked it
to break up in such a way as to
separate the two biggest of the
four companies brought together
when it was organized.
The harvester trust i*»ople re
fused insisting therefore on
Keeping together $91.(MX),()00 of
the *120.000,000 of capitaliza
tion. This falls so far short of re
suits obtained in the courts that
the government would have been
severely criticized for accepting
it, in spite of the distinguished
example given by the last admin
ist ration.
In spite of the an?ry protests
and renewed attacks upon the
president of Mr. Perkins, plain
people can s »e no reason why the

trust should continue to be an ex
