Special to the New York World.
YASKroS, SD, Feb. ls.-senator-elect Kyle
defines his position and political tendencies in
the following remarks made tonight before
meeting of the Independents and democrats at
Pierre:
'When two forces acting in opposite direc-
tions meet they produce a new force, which
continues TO move in q direction different from
either Of the other forces. This new force is
called in mechanics a resultant. Tonight I
feel that am a resultant-formerly O republi-
can, then an independent and now that I have
been elected by both parties j am a resultant
of both parties. am an indecrat. i have
always been in favor Of a new tariff and
about four years ago. when the republican
party decided in favor OF a high tariff, il
was too much for me and sought q more
congenial party, which ] found in the
democratic party. After the independent
principles were still more congeniaL The in
dependent cannot affiliate with the republi-
cans. The republicans ring rule and high
tariff have made affiliation impossible"
The democrats claim that Senator KYLE may
be counted with them on party issuesand IL IL
believed that he has pledged himself TO this
effect. He acknowledge that he owes his
election to the democrats, who voted for him
on receiving assurances from Illinois that
the alliance would support Palmer or some
other democrat All the party leaders admit
that in the future South Dakota viii be

The House committee on foreign affairs to-
day recommended that the House concur in
fourteen Of the fifteen amendments made by
the Senate to the consular and diplomatic

committee has already reported a separate bill
for the charter of this company, with a
government guarantee which was prepared
with grea caret and caution, and which the
sition than that attached by the Senate to the
appropriation bill. The action of the commit
tee. therefore. does not necessarily signify hos
tility to the proposition, but desire to bring
the matter into conference, where the best re-
suits may be obtained.

Applications for Liquor Licenses Lacking
Names Will Not Count.
The following order relative to liquor licences
was today passed BY the Commissioners: That
whenever an application for bar room license
is no: accompanied by the necessary signers
the assessor shall at once notify the applicant
in writing of that fact, and if the requirement
is not complied with in a reasonable time. not
exceeding ten DAYS from date of notification,
the assessor shall notify the applicant
that his application is disapproved by order of
tine Commissioner and that he must withdraw
his license deposit at once. The assessor will
also notify the major Of police Of the action
taken in each case
This order will affect many cases. Hereto
fore when an applicant has not been able to
obtain the requisite signatures to his applica-
ton he has filed it nevertheless, and kept his
place open until his application has been re-
jected twice. His lawyer has been heard,
and multitude of things thrown in the CON-
missioners' way TO keep him from closing, when
according TO law he should have been closed
the moment it was discovered that he lacked
the signatures OF majority of the residents or
property owners on the square in which his
saloon was located. The order passed today
corrects this practice.
