THE SENATORIAL RESULT.

Alexandria Herald: We have ad-
vices that the republican caucus at
Pierre resulted in the choice of Frank
Pettigrew and j Judge Moody for United
States senators. 1t seems that the con-
test was animated, but friendly, and
although Judge Edgerton's friends
will naturally feel somewhat disap-
pointed, they are not of the kind to
have a fit of Mysteries, and hunt up
somebody to abuse on account thereof.
Our Two senators are above the aver
age now in the senate, and have been
identified with the state from the very
first, and our interests are committed
to excellent hands.
Huronite: No heartier congratlua-
tions will go to Moody and Pettigrew
than those from the Gem City on the
Jim. Huron is happy over the result.
Alexandria Journal: Messrs. Petit
grew and Moody are representative
Dakotans and will do much toward
giving the new state a high standing in
the union.
Minneapolis Tribune: Moody and
Pettigrew are both men of command
ing ability and experience in public
affairs. Judge Edgerton would have
made dignitied and able senator; but
the combination of his successful Ii
walls carried everything before it. lie
takes his defeat with becoming grace
and dignity.

The reception which was rendered
Senator-elect Pettigrew at his homo on
Friday night is a tribute of which any
man might well feel proud, for it COM
pletely gave the lie to the sentiment
that prophet is not without honor in
his own country. The city was one
blaze of illuminated enthusiasm and
one volume of joyful sound, and neigh
bors of the pickerel statesman, of all
creeds and of all political beliefs, We'd
with each other in honoring him, while
representatives OF other localities were
present to emphasize the fact that now
that the contest between good men and
true was over, all of South Dakota
claimed the right to express its hearty
acquiescence IN the result. The citi-
zens of Sioux Falls were the embodi-
ment Of hospitality and the invited
guests were treated with most gracious
consideration, without regard to (cap-

Catarrh Can't be Cured

with local applications, as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Ca
tarrh is blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order to cure it you have
to take internal remedies. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly on the blood and mucus
surface. Halls Catarrh Cure is no
quack medicine. 1t was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years, and is a regular
prescription. 1t is composed of the
best tonics known, combined with the
best blood purifiers, acting directly on
the mucus surface. The perfect COM
bination of the two ingredients is
what produces such wonderful results
in curing catarrh. Send for testimo-

Lieut.. Gov. Fletcher, n his remarks
to the state senate before the adjourn
ment of the special session, struck the
keynote of legislation during the en-
suing term-careful economy and lin
tied lawmaking. Now that the en-
thusiasm over the assured fact of
statehood has expended itself, the ac-
tual condition of things will have to
be met and that condition is one
which calls for the exercise of the ut
most prudence and good sense. South
Dakota is undoubtedly on the thresh-
hold of splendid career as common
wealth. But the acts of her first leg
islature will have much to do with de-
termining the complete success of
that career. That legislature will
have to assume responsibilities which
will rest on no other like body here
after. 1t will have to meet at the
very outset the question of legislative
apportionment, for no thinking citizen
will deny that the present member
ship is extravagantly beyond the ac-
tual of the new state. 1t will
have to frame prohibitory law which
will command the sincere support of
every lawabiding citizen and insure
full and fair test of the constitutional
provision against the further continu-
ance of the liquor traffic. 1t will
have to meet the fact Of a depleted
Treasury, and must govern its appro-
priations accordingly. These are y
few Of the important points which
Lieut.. Gov. Fletcher suggested to the
members of the senate for their con-
sidelation during the interval before
their business session land to which the
REPUBLICAN would invite the careful
attention of not only the legislators
but the press and the people generally
of the new state.

Neighborly Courtesy.

Dawson County Gazette: The RE
PUBLICAN is getting ready for the
hard winter coming on. A couple of
weeks since it dropped the press dis
catches and on Monday reduced its
size to six column. Strange to say it
made no mention of these important
changes.
The REPUBLICAN must have fe,1
that it could rely upon the kindly
courtesy of neighbor, the Gazette,
to call attention to the retrenchment
it has been forced to make, along with
every other business enterprise, par
tieulaily if that paper thought the fact
of such retrenchment could be made
to reflect upon the REPUBLICANS busi-
ness standing. The Gazette, by the
way, might have pursued its invcstiga-
tionS further and discovered that the
REPUBLICAN had contracted It's work
ing quarters with the same iauaahle
purpose of economy in view; but the
inference which the Gazette tries to
have drawn that the readers of the
REPUBLICAN are to suffer from its re-
duced size is clearly at fault, as the
quantity and quality of reading matter
furnished daily goes to show. The
REF PUBLICAN regrets to see this dispo-
sition on the part of its esteemed
neighbor to be captlous, for the REpuB-
LICAN has found its own time pretty
we'll occupied in attending to its own
business, especially that part OF it
which includes the collection of slow
accounts due it and the payment of it's
own obligations.
