SOUTH pAKOIA.
Pierre, 8. Oak, Oct. 2.-5outh Dakota's
FIRST state election descended TO a degrad-
ing scramble for capital location. There
has been no fight on anyIhing else. Mel
lette, IS elected governor by over 10000
u aiority; Picker and Clifford go to con-
gress; the republican majority in the
Legislature will be at least sixty,
insuring the election of two re-
publican Unit. d States senators. The vote
was enOrm,. Us, probably $4,000, and the
trade and sale Of ballots were based on the
capital fight. For Il e capital, Pierre, Hn-
ron, NaertoKn, Chamberlain, Sioux Falls
and Mitchell were entered. All the ante
election talk Of fraud proved hut wind, the
election being very quiet, and so far as re-
ported no frauds we're attempted and no
fights permitted. O@ing to the great in.
terest In the capital contest but little at
teniIon war given to minority representa-
lion, and il WAS doubtless defeated. The
fate OF prohibition hangs In the balance.
On a squa fght Il would probably have
carried, but votes on this question were
recklsssly traded on the capital location,
and the vote, weatever il Is, will not fairly
represen, the sentiments of the people Of
South Dakota.

made large gains, but in some Others re-

Comparative Areas Of the Central and
south American Countries.

The coming Of the delegates to the
Pan American Congress makes it peril
nent to remind our readers that Central
and South America embrace an area n
little greater than twice the extent of
country in the United States and Terri
tories, and a population of about fifty
millions or about one sixth smaller than
the population of the Republic.
Mexico covers an area Just about equal
to that part of the United States east of
the Mississippi River, exclusive of the
States of Louisiana and Mississippi, and
has 10, 900, 900 inhabitants.
The five Central American Republics of
Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicar-
augua and Salvador cover an extent of
country about the size of the five States
of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Mich
igan and Illinois, and have population
equal TO both New York and Indiana.
Brazil's area is somewhat greater than
that Of the United States, exclusive of
Alaska, and hcr population is about that
of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio.
The Argentine Republic, with about
half the area Of the United States, has n
population not quite as large as Pennsyl-
vania.
Colombia is nearly equal in extent to
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indians,
Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin, with n
population probably little less than
that of New York State.
Bolivia's territory is somewhat greater
than that of the Atlantic States, Pennsyl.
vania, Ohio and Michigan, and has a
population about Indiana's figure.
Peru is a little larger thin the Atlantic
States and Pennsylvania, and her popu-
lation is about that of Illinois.
Venezuela Is larger than Peru by about
as much territory rs is embraced in New
Jersey, and her population is about equal
to lndiana's
Ecuador could contain Ohio, New
York, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Illi-
nois, but her population is not quite up
to that of Michigan alone.
Chili's domain cut up would make
States rs extensive AS Ohio, Pennsylvania
and Indiana. Her population is some
what greater than that Of Indiana.
Paraguay is big enough TO include
Ohio and New York within her borders,
but her entire population scarcely exceeds
that of Cleveland.
Uruguay is not quite rs large as Ohio
and Indiana combined, and has just about
the same number of inhabitants as Brook
lyn, n. Y.
The Guianas are English, French and
Dutch colonies. British Guiana, twice as
large as Ohio, has just about the popula-
ton of Cleveland. French Guiana,
somewhat larger than Ohio, has about as
many inhabitants as Toledo. Dutch
Guiana, nearly as large as Pennsylvania,
has no more inhabitants than Columbus.

sides, rubbing any dirty spots particular
ly, with this mixture: One-half cup of

pint tepid soft water. Roll the silk on n
stick, an old broom-handle will do, be-
ing careful that no wrinkles are left on
it. Let it dry without ironing. Woolen

Scenes In Siam.

"An American finds Bangkok, the cap.
ital of Siam, full of the strangest con-
trasts and oddest sights" said Mr..
Perkins, returned traveller from that
country. "He sees the river banks lined
for miles with floating houses, the homes
OF many thousands and the scenes OF
busy trade. On one corner is the splen.
did palace of nobleman, and on the
next the novels of the very poor. Here
are groups of Buddhist priests in yellow
garb, shielding their faces with fans at
the sight of women, and near them are
gangs of the toughest of convicts clank-
ing their chains as they toll in the streets.
Here are lepers horribly repulsive, unre-
strained, and clamorous for aims, and
soon, perhaps, the King passes with a
brilliant retinue, sitting on his state
chair of solid gold. Fine ladies have
teeth as black as polished ebony. When
a member of the royal house dies the ere
nation ceremonies cost fortune, and
while thousands are witnessing the inn
posing display vultures are tearing dead
bodies to pieces IN the heart of Bangkok,
and the poor are burning their dead. a

Farther on whore the shores are fair.
And the gracious forms we would fain bo

The names we speak in the voice Of prayer.
Be the voyage long they will he the dearer
When after whilo we shall greet them

Farther on whore the tide is clearer,
Down the stream where the shores are fair.
By and by when the sun is shining,
After while when the skies are clear.
When the cloud unfolds its silver lining

We shall free our tongues from their dull re-
