Among the demands of the farmers
alliance upon the Legislature is one call
ing for the adoption of the Australian
system of voting. The Sioux Falls
Press tells what this system is:
The ballots are provided by the state
and contain the names oil oil the candi-
dates for the several offices. The voter
simply makes check opposite the name
of the person for whom he wishes to
vote. No persons are permitted TO re-
main in the poll room after voting except
certain sworn off ,ers; nc person is per-
united 80 vote ticket which he brings
in with him. He receives his ticket after
entering the room. For the benefit OF
voters who are unable TO read, sworn
officers are at hand who resd the ticket
that the voter may check it. There is
not much encouragement in such sys-
tenn for the expenditure of money to
corrupt voters.

Donald has feE many yeers been one of

true exposition Of the irony of fate that

the tthction that no one was supposed
to knog better than he how to cure.

Registers OF Deeds.

brookings, Dec 27-Territorial Ex-
aminer Harris is sending blank sheets to
the registers of deeds such as they are
ordered to use for making reports after
January LIST, aad they are notified that
the reception book to be used must cor
respond in manner of ruling. In most
cases books have been ordered which, in
Gil probability, will not agre with the
blank sheet now rent as a sample.
Many good lawyers are of the opinion
that the lew fixing salary for the reg
lister OF deeds is not constitutional, and
If tested will not stand. The statute
prescribes the amount the register shall
receive for oer'ain SERVICES, and il is 9,
question, so long as the statute is un.
changed, whether the legislature he's o
right to say bow much of the fees the
register shall keep and how much he
shall pay into the county treasury.

A Bismarck correspondent intimates
that there is o conservative element in
the farmer majority of the legislature
which opposes radical anti-ra,lroad

not, and the conservative element should

element that Dakota cannot afford to
serve notice on the railroads to keep

BOWEN d KINGsBUBy. Prop'trs

The South Dakota editor of the Satur-
day 81. Psnl Pioneer Press speaks of the
proposition TO take 9 legislative recess: :
A proposition to adjourn the legIsla.
ture immediately after its organization
Is sent ont from Yankton, the plan being
to take recess until April. thereby CIV
ing President Harrison on opportunity
to appoint o new governor with all that
uch an appointment implies. IL is
said to be the opinion OF good lawyers
that such scheme is practicable, but to
the ordinary every day newspaper mind
its suggests complications which might
as we'll be avoided at this time. 1t
would seem that republican majority
IN the council ought to act as q sufficient
check ON 6 democratic governor. The
subject is worth discussing, however.
There is but an instance in the history
OF Dakota wherein Legislature has act
ed as check upon q governor-in 1881,
when Ordway was confronted through
cut the session by solid two-ttiris IN
both houses against ell his propositions
Ii is the practice of Legislatures TO place
themselves at the mercy of governors
and there is no reason to suppose that
the practice will be abandoned at the
coming session. No objection can exist
to recsss and it would give us the pres
ence of republican governor in the
place of an executive who has rendered
himself obnoxious to the people gem
orally, without regard to politics. If
the legislature sits it's sixty days con-
tinuously Governor Church will make
all the appointments 7or the coming two
years. Should the council refuse to
confirm his appointments. the present
incumbents will hold over. Another
argument in favor of recess is the time
it would give for much needed legisla-
tive investigations into public institu-
tons. Such Investigations could be
made to result in saving to the terri
tory far in excess of the cost of the re-
cess.
