Clark Ed Olark doaan't need a lot of intro duction to the voters of Fall River oounty.

This of »uree hassaussd few sore epota for it takes a good man to admit defeat graoefally but Bert has said nothing that has. been detrimental to anyone and has pursued the same up right policy that has characterized him during his reaidenoe here and this poUoy of attending strlotly to his own business will get htm the eleotlon, He is a good aooountaqt and will make a first-class register of deeds.

He aald there was absolutely no truth in thlT rsport that It must have been manu factured out of whole cloth, for ha never had heard of It. The senator Said he had jast finished reading a large number of South Dakota news papers and that none of them con tained a memtion of any movement to get him to enter the raoe.

Mike Smith will make I good for the board. Mike ia a man that emooth talk and offers of speoial favors won't oor rapt, It wont be healthy for the man who attempta'to start suoh a praotloe. Mike did not enter the raoe to secure the eleotlon for personal gain but to put matters on an eoonomloal bseis in the oounty. He 1s a shrewd business tasnsnd the people of the first dls. tiiot should eleot him. y- v. A. O. fontay. C.cK Forney, of Oelrlohe, ts the other commissioner to be eleoted.
