The republicans of the third legisla-
tive district are looking around for men
to represent the district in the next
The district includes the
of Bon Homme, Douglas,
Charles Mix, Brule, Buffalo, Jerauld,
Aurora, Dawson and Hanson. As an
outsider we may be permitted to make
q suggestion, one which comes out of
the experience of the past. Hon. E. n.
Mcintosh, of Planklnton, has been tried
and found to be honest and faithful. He
was member Of the last legislative
council and was one of the five in that
body who placed their votes and their
influence solidly against the corruption
which ruled with the Legislative majority,
and steadfastly refused to become the
tools of speculative combination.
Threats, entreaties and offers of reward
failed to move them from the strict line
of duty and down to the last moment OF
that memorable struggle their five noes
we're recorded against the shameless
bargains OF those who had abandoned
honor and honesty in an insane support
OF speculative schemers. As one of the
five Mr.. Mcintosh is entitled to all the
honors which we'll served constituency
can bestow upon him. He is known tc
be an honest man and the third district
interests vonld be safe in his hands.

Walworth County Blue Blanket:
Two mules started out for liberty in
the vicinity of La Grace, short time
ago. one with long picket rope around
his neck, and we're seen in this vicinity
taking bee line for Yankton. They
belonged to Woolley's surveying party.
Two days after, Mr.. Woolley and one Of
his men reached Kings ranch on cou.
pie of broncos, both men and animals
being we'll tired out. They had trailed
the mules as keenly as Indians for this
long distance by marks in the grass
and by pieces of rope worn
or broken off. Here they
picketed out their ponies and pursued
the runagates in wagon, finally over
taking them in the vicinity OF Roscoe.
Mr.. Woolley has surveyed on the from.
tiers since 1868. Until the hard winter
of 1882 antelope we're almost constant
ly in sight OF the parties, and not many
years before they saw vast herds of buf-
faloes over these plains.
The surveyors work in central Dako-
ia is nearly done. Before New Years all
south of the Northern Pacific and east
of the Missouri will be in market, and
soon after all will be gone.

81. A. Jerauld has concluded not to
run for the Legislature in the first dis
trict. giving for this conclusion the fol-
lowing reasons in the Canton News:
If not encroaching too much upon
your space, I would like to announce to
my friends in Lincoln county, that
will not further embarass them with my
candidacy for the next Legislature.
I say "embarass," because have
finally concluded that it is too much to
ask of them to try and combat the ln-
sane prejudice that exists to greater
or less extent against me, because vot.
ed to remove the seat of government
from Yankton. In times past the cap.
ltals of states have been removed, and
corruption charged in every case. The
came charges we're made in our case
by interested parties and they have been
nursed .and fostered bv selfish and
chicken hearted politicians at home,
who see in my defeat an opportunity
for their own elevation.
1t is apparent from the foregoing that
the reason Mr.. Jerauld declines to run
is that Mr.. Jerauld's constituents have
concluded that they do not care to be
represented by him. As he is the mar
whose single vote decided the fate o.
the capital bill, the attitude of his con
stituents is somewhat significant.

Parker and Hurley papers announce
that the legislative convention for the
second district has been called to meet
at Hurley on the 18th of October. We
have seen no such call. On the contrary
call has been issued for legislative
convention for the second district at
Yankton on the 2lst of October. This
call is signed by the chairmen of the
county committees of Hutchinson and
Yankton counties and it is probable that
the chairman of the Turner county com.
mlttee will also sign it.

Killed nv the Cars.

WALTHAM, MASS, November 22.-Miss
Grace Coolidge, pretty fifteen-year-old
girl, and member of the Waltham High
School, was killed by the cars at the Bleach
cry Station, on the Fitchburg Railroad, this
morning. Her home is located not far from
the station, and about mile and half
frOp the school building. 1t had been her
custom to take the train and ride to the
Waitham Station, which is only short dis
lance from the school. This morning she
started from her home about eight o'clock,
the usual time, and went 10 the station.
There she remained until the train was
starting, when she rushed out and sprang
abroad, stepping upon the lower step of the
smoking car platform. Her hand lost hold
of the rail and she was thrown around and
fell upon the track. The wheels passed
over the top of her head, crushing in the
skull, and her body was also badly mangled,
death being instantaneous. Her body was
taken to her late home and the sad news
was carried to her father, j. F. Coolidge,
who is an Overseer in the bleachery. Her
mothers health has been failing of late and
it is feared the present shock will affect her
mind. The girl is highly spoken of by her
teacher as a bright. intelligent, promising
student. She had many friends and the
news of the sad accident caused the deepest
sadness in the school community. The
conductor of the train, Mr.. TOwne, was
upon the car platform close by, but could
not save the girl from falling.
