Out Of our expressed desire for a division
Of Dakota on the 40lh parallel, the Rapid
City Journal constructs the theory that our
motive is to retain the capital at Yankton.
We believe we have never limited at such a
result and therefore conclude that the
Journals suggestion is original with itself
Our v opinion upon this point is tina,
Yankton does not expect to retain the
capitol and does not care to. 1t has a highe,

The superyis ors Law.


IF there is any honest republican who
has been made to believe that the Super
visors and deputyImarshals law, which the
democrats in congress propose to repeal, is
in any way necessary to the protection OF
the ballot-in the southern states, that this
law is necessary to keep the terrible white
man from buldozing their African brother
aud felloW-citizen,' we wish to undeceive
them. None of these republicans can for
q moment believe that the law is necessary
to protect the Afrioan,or any other repub
lican in the use Of the ballot in any OF the
northern states, especially 10 Ohio, New
York and Massachusetts. Under section
2,02l, of thisslaw deputy marshals with

600 inhabitants, and under section 2,O2G
of the law the supervisors who are appoint

law is aimed at uaturalized voters, ant

will, voice the wants, the needs, lthe plea

it is published. 1t has to fight their bat
ties and do what it can to right their
wrongs. The maB iu any other business

evil that meDances,it must wGrD the people
oft. III do not,it is set down for coward
and the people look elsewhere for what
they demand. This may be one of the his;
fortunes of the newspaper business, but it is
demanded of il, and the man who goes in
to it must eXpect to fulhll this duty to his
community. and if he will not, or dare not
he had better keep out of the business. Il
behooves him to sift we'll his facts, as vel
at least as the limited time between publ
cations will allow; be sure that he is right

that newspapers are compelled to speab

On the occasion of Speaker Randall's
election in the house of Representatives
he made the following very appropriate
remarks:
REPRESENTATIVES, your vote | am
elevated for the third time to the exalted
Office of speaker of this House. For this
evidence of your approval and confidence
offer you my heartfelt thanks. The
responsibilities and duties imposed upon
me are heavy and difficult. With the
blessing of God | shall discharge them
without personal bias or ignoble partisan
ship. Observing strict impartiality as to
men and measures, parties and sections, it
will be to me unspeakable Joy if | can
help to bring about that substantial, fra
terual union, which comes alone through
wisdom, moderation and justice" This
new Congress meets in it's first session
under the call Of the President. Owing to
irreconCilable differences upon vital issues,
important and necessary appropriation
bills failed to pass at the previous session
Then the political sentiment Of the two
houses was antagonistic. 1t is now il
complete accord. This House, fresh from
the people, brings with it their latest will
We are here for such legislation as their
necessities, welfare and honor demand,
That will, as expressed by the majority il
calm aud decorOus form, let US hope will
meet with universal acceptance. More
over, the country expects of this Congress
that it will wisely and deliberately legis-
late to remove the burdens that have toe
long weighed upon the patriotism and
prosperity of the people, and with the
fervent hope that the spirit as well as the
letter of the constitution shall be the con-
trolling influence in directing such legis-
iation, am now prepared to take the
oath of office.
