TIE NEXT NEW- FORK LEGISLATURE.

The TRIBUNE's figures of yesterday with a
number of counties yet to be heard from gave
the Assembly of this State to the Republicans
by a majority of =. The full returns, how
ever. establish different result The tidal
wave-which did So much damage TO Repub-
lican hopes in many parts of the countrywide
not spare the Assembly canvass. It swept
away the entire Republican majority in the
lower house of our Legislature and left
small but sufficient Democratic majority in its
place The revised Assembly table printed on
another page shows that of the Assemblymen-
eject 6s are Democrats and go are Republicans.
Our friends the enemy are growing loudly
over this outcome of the struggle for the con-
troll of the Assembly, and they can read their
title clear to all the exultation which they feel
Last session the Assembly was Republican by
16 majority Next session it will be Demo
cratic by majority-a majority which is just
large enough to secure the election of a Demo-
cratic United States Senator On the joint ballot
of the two houses. 1t takes 81 votes to do
this The whole number of members OF Senate
and Assembly is 100. Adding to the IS Dem
ocratic Assemblymen-elect the IL Democratic
Senators who hold over gives exactly ST.
an uncommony close shave.
Barring the Senatorship, the triumph OF the
Democrats is more apparent than real. IL
lacks substance. A Republican majority OF 6
in the Senate will stand in the way OF the sue
cess of any of the nice little partisan schemes
notably the breaking down Of the Excise
iaws-to which the Democracy OF this State
with Hill as its leader Is doubtless committed.
Hence, although our opponents will control
the Assembly, their majority will be powerless
to do any considerable harm and seeing that
only q handful Of the 60 are men Whn can be

good word to say for the laws recently passed
by Congress with the~purpose of decreasing
assertions from the army. In his opinion they
will have such a good effect that in time they
will eradicate entirely an evil which has as
sumcd alarming proportions in recent years.
The credit for suggesting the new laws is due
TO Secretary Proctor, whose judgment and sa-
gacity in the matter are entitled to warm praise.

The State Forest Commission is engaged in
the commendable task of obtaining information
from all possible sources concerning the project
Of establishing State Park in the Adirondack
region. Representatives of several assoca-
tons interested in preserving the North Woods
from destruction appeared before it yesterday,
and all expressed hearty sympathy with the
scheme of State Park. All agreed, too, that
railroads were serious detrment to the
preservation of the forests and that no more
should be constructed. There does not seem
to be any room for doubt on this point. 1t is
clearly the States duty to take immediate steps
10 save this forest region from destruction.
Delay is especially dangerous here.

Not Discouraging.

A. L. Conger, the Ohio representative
upon the national republican committee,
in recent Chicago interview, says: 81
see nothing in the recent election to dis
courage republicans. An inspection Of
the returns show that the voting
strength of the democratic party has in
creased not at all. 1t shows that the
next congress was secured by the demo-
Gratis, not because of the addition of
republicans to their ranks, but because
republicans stayed away from the polls
in large numbers, thereby permitting a
democratic majority to capture the con-
gress, that's all. Now, the question is,
why did the republicans stay away
from the polls? Because of the fancied
aggrievements inseparable in officers
from the party in power at Washington
and too, because of a misunderstanding
of the Mckinley bill. But the soreness
will have all disappeared before 1892 /;
the knotty points of the Mckinley bill
will be unraveled by the intelligence Of
the people and the republicans will all
be found at the polls depositing their
ballots for the republican nominee"

Tin Miners Laid of.

The Harvey Peak Tin Mining Com
pany have laid off large number of
their working force at their various
mines in Pennington and Custer coun-
ties during the past week. The number
of men discharged, which we have no
means oflknowing definitely, is various
ly estimated at from $50 to 200. The
entire force employed at a number Of
mines in Pennington county is said to
have been taken off, while at others the
force has been materially reduced. In
Custer county work in no case has been
wholly discontinued at any of the mines,
but the force has been more or less
decreased at all of them except the
Flora, a very promising property on
Willow creek, one mile and half north
,, of this city, where steam hosting works
are now being erected. The reason for
this action on the part of the company
| is not apparent, but it is generally be-
lieved that the financial panic in London
and New York is the prime cause Of it.
That it was not on account or the ab-
sence of tin in payable quantities in the
mines being operated, all who are famil-
lar with the situation will readily ad-
init, as there never has been time in
the history Of the company when the
mines presented more favorable indica-
tions of permanent value. 1t is gener-
ally believed the the present status Of
affairs will not continue for any consider
able length of time, but that operations
on more extensive scale than ever will
be resumed at an early day.

Pythian Progress.

Referring to the progress of the
Knights of Pythias in South Dakota,
Grand Chancellor Phillips, in receiving
the slate of the order in the state, says:
Generally, the Order is in a flourishing
condition, despite the incontrovertible
fact that times are exceedingly hard and
the outlook discouraging in certain por-
tions of the state, owing to successive
partial crop failures. To the Black Hills
we can point with pride. The seven
lodges in that section of the state are all
in prosperous condition, the one at
Lead, Dakota No. 8, being the banner
lodge of the state. Lead, Deadwood
and Central City also possess flourishing
divisions of the Uniform Rank, while a
division at Custer is about ready for insti-
tuition, comprising the entire member
ship of its lodge. During my official
visiting in the Black Hills / was ac-
companied by Grand Vice Chancellor
Frank Abt and Grand Master of Ex-
checquer 4. II. West, two as ardent aud
jealous Knights as ever drew lance.

NICKEL


Locations of mineral claims in the
Bald Hills about IL miles from Hill City
In north easterly direction have been
made lately which promise great things
for the future. What is described as
mountain of porphyry was found
which is believed to be the only appea-
ance of that rock in the southern Hills.
At the point of contact Of this prophy-
ry with the country rock was discovered
ledge of mineral bearing rock which
shows thirty feet wide at the place oi
discovery and can be traced for l2 miles.
The ledge matter upon assay proved to
contain large per cent Of nickel and it
is thought viii yield platinum also.
Samples of rock have been sent TO
Chicago and to the School Of Mines at
Rapid City for analyses and should
these test prove as favorable as former
ones the claims will be developed for all
they are worth. Norman McAuley,

A Prospective Marriage.

In our issue of last week we noted
the departure of ID. w. McFadden, of
this city, for Omaha, and IN accordance
with the best information obtainable,
stated that he would be absent one
week. The week has passed, and
Mac has not returned, but the following
card, received ou Monday, fully accounts
fori the delay and forestalls any uneasi-
ness which we otherwise might have e.
perienced on his account:

Moody Will Be Returned

We believe the Deadwood Pioneer
has correctly called the turn, and SEN
sibly sized up the senatorial situation in
the following: Senator Moody will be
returned. He will get the solid vote of
the straight republican members and
enough more from the repu blican al
lance or independents TO elect him De-
mocrats will vote for Moody rather than
Meuntebank Wardall and independents
will support Moody in preference to q
democrat. The democrats and inde-
pendents will not unite for Wardall has
sounded the baiiie-cry by sneeringly
saying that eve are under no obligations
to the democrats" In Lawrence county
the Independents owe what little sue
cess they did achieve to the democrats
Wardall will undoubtedly bob up as a
candida te and then sell out.
