May 31 1906 report notes Senator Kittredge's return to Washington this week and about two hundred Democrats ready for the Sioux Falls convention to nominate congressional and state candidates amid state revival and Bryan Pettigrew support. The Black Hills last supplied a congressman Knowles. Emerick proposed. Free alcohol bill clears Congress, promising cheaper gasoline.
Dave Wipf, the secretary of state, aligns with insurgents, increasing the leadership cadre of the movement and marking another ingrate to join the group.
Pettigrew may be a candidate for governor on the democratic ticket. Supporters praise his ability and loyalty to the state as a key credential for nomination.
Congressman Towne reads Roosevelt off the democratic party. An orator is needed to persuade South Dakota insurgents. Beadle county democrats plan starting a democratic paper as Beadle county needs more newspapers. Present publishers relay awake nights trying to spend money.
About 230 democrats and populists hold seats at the Republican state convention in Sioux Falls, meeting June 5. If those independents were removed, the stalwarts would hold the majority.
The Highmore Bulletin editor Shober, aligned with insurgent H erried era, attacks Charles H. Burke with a lengthy tribute and laments he could support Burke without compromising his conscience, calling the piece a rich but hypocritical display of violence to conscience.
Law banning passes for railroads may pass legislature and harm state budget. Railroads have issued free transportation worth thousands yearly to state officers aiding official business. Prohibition would require an additional 50 000 dollars annually from taxpayers.
Congressman Martin, returning from Sioux Falls, was greeted by Meg and a large crowd of Deadwood supporters who gave him an ovation. He described the turn to private life as a great compensation of defeat and spoke of the appeal of home and quiet days away from public life.
The Pierre Dakotan pushes for the renomination of H Shober against local rival Goodner. It opposed Burke and may oppose Goodner out of habit. The paper notes Senate alignment with Kittredge on Panama Canal style, even over Roosevelt. A powerful U S senator has influence greater than the president, despite Minnehaha county voting against him in the latest contest.
In the Minneapolis Journal E.G. Torry notes with regret that Congressmen Martin and Burke are to be retired and that Judge Campbell of Aberdeen will not represent South Dakota in Washington. He says the trio could have greatly benefited the state and that politics, like war, must be faced.
The Huron school celebrated its largest class with twenty five graduates on Friday evening. Eleven young men and fourteen young women reflected higher male retention and strong school support. The Humonite urged continued learning as global demands rise for morally, physically, and intellectually prepared individuals.
An Beadle County statement rebutts a Journal-World article on a past convention. The author denies false claims about delegates and alleges political manipulation by a railroad lobby and editor. The speaker calls for a statewide primary and vows to expose alleged falsehoods while defending cleaner politics.
The Sioux City Journal notes Frank Pettigrew will seek Alfred B. Kittredge's Senate seat in 1908. Pettigrew signals insurgent and populist gains in the state and vows to push into national politics. The Huron HuroniTE criticizes school time waste as Pres. Taylor projects reforms for city schools. A fraud notice then appears, detailing Hall's Catarrh Cure and a notary public endorsement.
A brief notice indicates options to buy sell insure or borrow on city or farm property including fees or terms under Bayard Avenue in Houghton block. The item reads as a real estate or loan advertisement centered on property transactions and related charges.
