bearing whatever on the question. She
assumes that unless the capital is located
at Pierre, all development of the state
will cease. But how is il with the Nation
Washington has been the National capital
for 100 years, and yet during that time the
great railroad centers like Chicago st.
Louis, st. Paul and numerous others have
sprung into existence. The coal fields OF
Pennsylvania. Ohio, Iowa and Illinois
have been developed. Millions OF acres
OF land have been settled and cultivated,
and all OF this has taken place without
reference to the location Of the National
Capital.
PIERRE AS A RAILWAY CENTER.
History is constantly repeating itself.
II Pierre is natural railway center as
she asserts, no opposition from Huron can
keep them away from her. And If she is
not n railway center all the capital booms
she may start wont make her 80. To-day.
she is neither railway center nor Gen.
ter OF population. And the capital would
not make her SO. Bismarck is a standing
example Of what the capital will not do.
She is just what she was seven years ago.
PAPER RAILROADS
Last year Pierre secured votes on the
assurance that by some mysterious pro-
cess which no other town could work, she
would build a large number of railroads
Immediately, provided she got the tenn
porarv capital. She has had the temporas
ry capital one year, but has built no roads.
But she is now indulging in the same old
game, to catch the same votes with the
same old promises.
woLsEY CANDIDACY.
The Pierre Board of Trade deny that
they instigated Wolsey or any other can-
didate TO enter the field. Leading citi-
zsns Of Watertown have informed us that
the Pierre campaign committee used
every effort including offers Of money, to
induce the city Of Watertown to enter & q
capital race. This fact can be established
beyond question by enquiry of many Of
the prominent citizens of Wateuown.
Pierre strikers were the men who put
Wosey in the field, aad the scheme was
dropped by them only when they discov-
cred that it was injuring Pierre instead Of
| Huron.
roREr6N sYSDICATEs.
II Is generally understood that the city
Of Pierre is largely owned by wealthy syn
dicates of bankers and capitalists, located
in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chi
cago and Omaha. who expect to speculate
on your capital location. Our confidence
in the good Judgment of the voters Of
South Dakota leads us to confidently as
sure you that an overwhelming majority
will be cast for Huron, and that these
wealthy foreign spectators will be left
out in the cold this time.
Yours very respectfully.

falaya, which, by this time, should be pre-
pared for any emergency. This misfortune
Is enough, but it is not matter over which
people have any cause to become hysterical.
The current statement that there has been
a general surrender along the line Of defense
Is wholly erroneous. Capt Kingman is
working as hard as ever to hold what is left
OF the levee, and the only portion of his
forces that have left him is made up Of
planters and settlers who have been driven
by tbs overflow to turn their attention to
saving what they can Of their property"
NEW ORLEANS NOT IN DANGER.

received dispatch from Norman Bell, sec
retary of the Norfolk (Va.) Cotton Ex-
change, saying: "Our members ere very
solicitous about New Orleans" Mr.. Hester
replied: "Your dispatch indicates that the

been absurdly exaggerated. There is not
now nor 10 there likely to be the slightest
danger to New Orleans froln the high water
in the Mississippi river. To quote a state
ment first made by member of the state

If it were On high hill.'".
GOVERNMENT RELIEF.
WASHINGTON, April 26.-Secretary Proc
tor to-day telegraphed to the governors of
Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Ar
kansas asking to be informed as to the
extent of the probable destitution in the
overfiowed country and the points to which
rations should be sent. He also asked them
to designate persons to act in conjunction
with officers to be assigned to duty in the
distribution of the stores. He says
he is prepared to afford immediate
relief. kilograms have also been sent
to Maj. A. G. Robertson of the quarter
masters department.. and Capt. Weston of
the subsistence department, both at New
Orleans, Instructing them to take measures
for the issue and distribution of provisions
whenever needed. They are instructed to
confer with the local authorities, and to
act promptly in affording the relief au-
thorizsd by congress.

MILES OF TRACK UNDER WATER.
SILVER MEN soUABBLING.
They Want the Bullion Redemption
Clause Stricken Out.

WASHINGTON, April ga caucus of
the republican Senators was held this morn
ing to consider the silver situation. The
committee which met the COMMITTEES of the
House republicans and agreed to the form
of a silver bill, reported their work, where
upon discussion ensued that was not COM
pleted when the hour for the opening of the
Senate arrived. A recess was then taken
until o'clock. A great variety lof views
were expressed by the senator's.
The senators went into caucus again
shortly after 3 o'clock, and remained until
$50 O'Clock. After the adjournment it was
announced that the whole subject had been
again referred to the caucus committee,
who would endeavor to frame bill that
should prove acceptable to all. 1t is re-
ported that while the differences between
those who are known as the silver mon and
the advocates of the bill agreed upon by
the committees of the House and Senate
seem to be radical, yet an earnest purpose
was shown to harmonize, and, if possible,
come to an agreement
WHAT THE SILVER MEN WANT.
The silver men desire that the provision
in the bill reported by the caucus commit
tee, which gives the Secretary of the
Treasury discretion to redeem in bullion
treasury notes issued in payment for
bullion, should holder of notes demand it,
should be stricken out. They do not want
the bill to give the secretary power under
any conditions to pay out bullion after
it has been once deposited in the
treasury. This view of the silver men was
supported by Senator Evarts of New York,
who made speech OF considerable length
in support of it. A suggestion was made in
the way of a compromise that the amount
of bullion the secretary might thus pay out
in any one month be limited and be re-
placed by additional purchases the next
month, but this was not less Objectionable to
the silver men. They are opposed TO the
principle of the thing.
AN ADMINISTRATION SCHEME.
It is said by the silver men that the pro-
vision objected to Is not supported by any
senator who has yet expressed himself for
any merit it has, but for the reason that it
is supposed to reflect the wishes of the
administration. The silver men also desire
to have the notes provided for in the
bill made full legal tender, but
this is not insisted upon with the
same intensity and earnestness
as is the proposition to keep bullion in the
treasury after it has been deposited. A
majority of the senators, however, are said
to be in favor of making the notes full legal
tender. Several propositions in the nature
of compromise were presented, but none
them were acceptable, and as stated, the
matter has gone back to the caucus COM
mittee, which will meet next Monday.

Press" He said: "The republican news.
papers of America form the strongest in
telectual force on this continent. and as a
party press that is loyal while independent.
unselfish, and always the advance guard of
the party. Consideration of the party press
daily grows more and more important.
We are in a state of transmission
somewhat as to party methods Torch
light professions as political arguments are
being superseded by the intellectual discus
sions of the press. The democrats saw that
the fight of 1892 will be a newspaper cam
paign before the republicans did, for the
Democratic party has been strengthening
its lines in newspaper and magazine In
the large cities of the east they have cap
tured nearly all the magazines aud illus
trated papers. The REINFORCED demo-
the Republican party to face. and
it must face it with courage and wisdom.
The democracy has also pressed its con-
quests to the agricultural press. Our own
press is loyal and it is virile and mighty in
power TO do, but it needs to be increased in
circulation, The republican press stands
ready to cover the land With the true
gospel 1t remains for the republicans
in the neighborhoods to supplement-
to extend their circulation and influence
l believe in it as republican and would
advocate as an editor the purest possible
elections. The question OF an houest ballot
is higher than anything in politics or parti-
senship, for it involves the life of the nation.
If the Australian system be the right thing
let US have it. In the south we need
the Australian system for voting,
but an American system for
counting. The sacred ballot is an epigram
of an enduring republic. Pure elections
mean that the southern questions become
paramount in politics, for there is no pre-
tense, even by candid opposition, that the
elections of the south are fair.
Thomas NJ. Bayne answered to "Ways
and Meansn He advocated in glowing
terms that policy which, he said, inspires
labor with hope and crowns it with
dignity, which gives safety to capital
and protects its increase, which secures
political power to every citizen, culture
and comfort to every home At midnight
the festivities were over and large num-
Der of guests had left the banquet hall.

that the medal should be deposited in the
national museum. Finally a standing vote
was taken on the passage of the joint reso-
luton, and as it showed a majority
against it, 12 to 26--no quorum voting, Mr..
Voorhees, asked that the joint resolution
might lie over, retaining its place OF the
calendar, and that was agreed TO.
