Clear Lake Courier: There is ubso ltttely no reason why any republican of this state should hold his support from Hod. R. H. Vesttey, candidate for governor.

His record AT .. THE BIG STORE.. October 8 and 9 is limply unassailable, and up to this writing we have yet to find a paper in thia state that has found aught to say •gainat Mr. Vesaey as a citizen. He ia act an extremist. On the contrary 1m is a level-headed, conservative bnsi saw man. In his own county he has made good in any position in which bis neighbors have placed him, and if be ia elected on the 3rd of next month he will make a splendid governor. IgJErt^OTE^AR 'K.

Case faced a very large audience when he called the meeting to arder and introduced Con gressman E. VV. Martin, who made the piincijHil speech of the evening. Ml. Martin discussed the issues of the cau naign in a forceful way and made an evident imprenMiou on the audience. He wan followed oy Governor Craw ford, who tnged all republicans to vot® the ticket straight, and who denounced the democratic leaders with great vigor. The governor was well receiv ed. He compared the expenses of the state with the expenses ten years ago and showed how much more there was to do. bow much grater was the de mand and ability to pay and de nounced the democrats as raising an unfair issue. Senator Veaaey was the next speak er. He told a numlx«r of jolly stories and said that he had rather spend the the rest of his days in private life than to win his election by promising im possibilities. Senator N'essey made a distinctly good impression by bis grasp of business problems and by his evi dent sincerity of purpose. C. Day of the Argns Leader, who was on the platform, but not on the list of speakers, was called oat by Chairman Case aud responded with btief remarks which were directed to national isHnes.

An exceptional record has been made by J. C. John son, reciever of the Hot Springs Na tional banR. which closed its doors almut a year ago with deposits aggre gating about #125,000, iu settling the alTaiis of the failed bank. Not a single depositor will lose a cent, while on the otner hand each depositor will re ceive interest on his deposits during the time it has bevn tied up while the affairs of be failed bank were being adjusted. George D. Horias, cashier of the failed bank, on August 17, appeared before Judge Car land, of the United States court in Sioux Falls, and enter ed a plea of guilty to counts in an in dictment charging bim with having made false reports of the bank's condi tion to the couiptrollei of the currency and with other iriegularities in connec tion with his management of the bank. Receiver Johnson now has notified the depostors that a final dividend has been paid oy the comptroller of the currency us fast as the necessary re ceipts and recei'ei's certificates are presented. This final dividend will pay each claim iu full, together with interest to date of the final payment. After the bank closed its doors many of the depositors feared they never would recover a cent of their deposits and many otners had given up all hope of ever receiving a penny of their earnings of years, which had l)een deposited in the failed bank. Their delight upon being notified that final payment now will be made them, and that they also will receive interest upon their deposits daring the time tbier money has been tied up, can be imagined. oak Opening A O N S O N GREAT RALLY.
