+. A. Oarle writes from Washington to
the st. Paul Pioneer Press that there is
q decided opposition in the senate to an
extra Session of congress for legislative
purposes, especially among the old mem.
bers. They desire to avoid the confne-
ment and labor OF spring session, pre-
ierring to give attention TO their private
affairs at home. Mr.. Oarle gives this
as one reason and says:
Another reason for objectirg to an
extra session more potent with senators
than with members of congress, espec.
Tally those VINO are new and inexpe-
rienl ed, is the dread oi the onslaught OF
the office seskers. These are sure to
come down in the spring like the wolf
on the fold, and the senatorial lambkins
who have been torn by the beast before
want to get out of the way. They prefer
to let the president-elect bear the brunt
of the onset and como back in the
winter when its fury has somewhat
abated. Then it is not unlikely that
some of them have domestic fences that
need looking after.
For these and other kindred reasons
not very elevated, but still powerful,
probably g majority OF the old members
OF the senate and OF those so fortunate as
to be reelected this winter would prefer
that an extra session would not be
called in the spring.
Extra session chances do not seem to
be good, end as they wane the demo.
cratic desire to admit South Dakota this
winter is liable to disappear.

day, having come to aid ex, Congressman
j. j. Kleiner of Indiana, now OF Pierre,
Dak., IN rushing through MIR. Clifford q

formidable array OF talent here in few
days to send the bill whirling through
both branches. 1t is the purpose of the
friends OF the bill to have the committee
on rules set aside day for consideration
of the bill, and not wait for it to be
called mp from its place on the calendar
Committee on rules have partially
agreed to name day, which, If done
will be Immediately after the Christmas

measure are ssnguine that the bill will
pass with but little opposition.

AMENDMENTS SUGGESTED.
Some Needed constitutional TiukerIr
The Debt EImitatiSn.

Some Needed constitutional Tiukering
The Debt Limitation.
Ii. y. johnson in the Sioux Falls
Press: In the Press OF to-day you cell
attention to the point raised iu one of
my Minneapolis Tribune Letters that al
ready the debt of the proposed state OF
South DAKOTA exceeds by $4,000 the
$500. 00O Limitation provided in the con
stitution. 1on there say that as the
constitution stjpulates that congress
may proYide for the adjustment of the
d6bt of the entire territory and for the
payment by each state OF Its proper share,
therefore the debt Of South Dakota, in
Its excess of the limitation, will not be
unconstitutional as suggested by me !.
and, therefore, further, the only strong
point made IN behalf OF new copstitu-
tion is fully answered.
In urging the argument it never oc-
CURED to me that the excess OF indebt-
edness, although called unconstitutional
would be subject to repudistion, as 1
was fully aware OF the provision in the
Platt bill that each state should pay the
bonds issued for the institutions within
its own boundaries. The inference to
oe drawn from the argument is two
fold: First, that it would be unwise
to say that the debt of the
state shall never exceed $780,
GOO. when at the very outset it is $667 :
300. A rule violated is worse than no
rule at all. Sectnd-that until the con-
stitution can be amended, ths state will
NOT be atie to issue bonds for any pur.
pose whatever. " might be desirable to
build statehouse or to make addition
to some institution; or penitentiary or
an asylum might burn down, and the
state would have no authority TO raise
dollar on the bonds until the constitu.
tion could be amended-and no one can
sell last how soon that would be--prob-
ably not within two years. The fire con.
tingeney, 1t is worth while to observe, is
not so remote as might seem, as two in
stitutions have been burned dowa dur
ing the past six years.
In this connection permit me briefly
to mention the points made against the
| constitution as it now stands. The name
| and boundary should be changed. The
salaries are too low, and in any event
| ought not to be mentioned in the oonsti.
tuition. The Black Hills with 90, ,OOO
population ought not to be allowed one
OF the three judges OF the supreme court,
The debt limitation ($500.00O) is alto
gether too low.
The Platt bill provides for resubmis-
sion on the nesae and boundary, and it
will be no additional trouble to vote on
the other matters ct the same time. /
