After Taking a Decisive Stand for
Statehood the Convention Adj
journs.
Special to the Globe
HURON, Oak, Jan. 10.-The cOnstitu-
tional convention adjourned at noon.
The morning session was chiefly devoted
to the consideration of the report of the
committee OH future work. The report,
as adopted, recommended that COM
mttee consisting of Hon. A. j. Edger-
ton, Hon. Hugh j. Campbell and Gov.
A. c. Mellette, be appointed to guard
the interests of the constitutional move
ment for statehood in South Dakota.
The question Of appointing presidential
electors next spring was left to the
discretion of the committee, and that
the convention again assemble here
July 10 next. A letter was received
from ID. w. Diggs, of AIilbank, treas
urer-elect, under the state organization,
in which he says the interest in the
statehood movement is not waning, is
more earnest than ever and will do all
III their power to carry out the pro-
gramme of division and admission under
the Sioux Falls constitution, and may
always he counted on to do his part.
Judge Campbell was unavOidably pre-
vented from attending and sent letter
saying: Il think that the convention
should pass an ordinance changing the
name to South Dakota; this is impor-
tant, as our Northern friends are al
ready FESTIVE under the idea that the
move at Washington means to ignore
them. l also think that the convention
should take steps to distinctly assure
the people that in case congress does
nothing this winter something will be
done by us next summer unalterably
and unQualifiedly for sticking to the
movement for the statehood of South
Dakota. Ii the convention can unite
upon practicable plan for a forward
aggressive movement next summer, [ am
for that. If it cannot, then | am for a
movement at the right time to formulate
one, that time will probably be next
spring, so say to friends that | am with
them in any forward move. The fact is
that as to matter of dollars and cents,
leaving out every higher consideration,
South Dakota cannot afford to let the
present term of good times and plenty
of money end, as it will in a few years,
before it secures statehood. We must
be state in the Union inside of twenty
four months. If we can't in one way
then we must in another. The senti-
ment was emphatic that unless divided
and admitted, would prefer to remain a
territory. A committee was appointed
consisting of E. T. Cressey, assisted by
Asher F. Pay, to compile statistics to be
issued in pamphlet form for future use.
Both are Huron newspaper men.

AGAINST REDUCED RATES.

The General Freight Agents
Working Hard to Keep Out the
Reduced Rates West Of Chicago.
CHICAGO, Jan. 1O.-The general
freight agents of the Western lines
were in session to-day, working bravely
to keep out reduced rates in the terri
tory west of Chicago. The reductions
upon several of the classes in the south
western section has threatened to bring
about the same reductions in Iowa and
Nebraska. Omaha is clamoring to be
put ON an equality with Kansas City,
but the railroads will endeavor to COM
bat the tendency toward lower rates for
the present, in the hope that matters
will mend in the Southwest. This was
the conclusion reached at to-day meet
ing, the agreement being that the pres
ent rates to Omaha and Council Bluffs
should continue in effect until further
notice. The general opinion, however,
is that in the end the Iowa roads will
have to yield, and make equal rates as
between Omaha and Kansas City.
