It lays the blame directly to Joseph Lied say, an at torney at Geddes, and Jasper Newton, a member of the legis lature from this county, and after charging them personally with being all but honest, proceeds to hold them up before the republi cans of the east end of the county in a way that would lead one to believe that the bill was to be blamed entirely upon the re publican party. After a careful canvass of those who were directly interested in it, we are of the opinion that if ther* was any politics in it, it should be charged to the democrats for we find tbat States Attorney Harry James and County Commissioner James Campbell were at Pierre in the interest of the bill. Both are democratic office holders. As another reason we refer to the is sue of the Geddes Record of this week (March 2nd) published by Johnson Bros., in which they copy the bill and argue for its merits. We are not arguing for the merits of the bill, but do ob ject to having Its responsibility unloaded upon the republican party, but rather upon the indi viduals who are responsible for it regardless of party affiliation.

The farce as above named was presented Wednesday evening by home talent to a very appre ciative audience. It was not very long, but lack of quantity was made up by very high quality. Just before the farce, the audi ence listened to some very enjoy able music by tbe Mikota Harp Orchestra, two quartettes and two solos by Wagner twlent. After the program the floor was immediately cleared tor a dance, and from then on until the wee small hours of the morning. Those who love to dance thro ughly enjoyed themselves with that pastime. A neat sum was realised, which goes to tbe bene fit of the Catholic society. "V53? & mi rus SALt Om ortvoaoad Mthe WartMeUvwy Sw*. Q. W. AtOm.
