to divert attention from the damnable
divorce law of South Dakota. 1t is sur
prising in how many ways the press gen.
orally of South Dakota can account for
the ''divorce evil'' without so much as
abiding to the easy divorce law as a
possible promoter of the evil. Unq ues-
tionably the divorce law of that state is
a profitable thing for Sioux Falls and
other cities of the state, and possibly
that fact has a deadening influence

Obstructed by Kilgore.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The greater
part of the day i'll the house was con-
sumed in filibnstering. Mr.. Kilgore, of
Texas, was to the fore. By his dilatory
tactics he accomplished his object in
defeating action on the bill for the cree
ton of monument to the prison ship
martyrs and on the measure for the
construction of revenue cutters for the
Pacific coast, but without opposition a
bill was passed to meet the requirement
of the interstate commerce law relative
to the testimony of witnesses.

A QUEST.

A gray-haired, broken-down old man,
With sunken eye and cheek.
Climbed up the steps one winters day,
With humble mien and meek.
He rang the bell, and woman came
And stood in the open door.
And a smile spread over his wrinkled fac
AS he saw his wife once more.
AND the old, glad light shone in his eyes,
And his husky voice grew clear.
AS he said III almost knocked me out,
Btr, [ matched that ribbon. dear"

A CORRECTION, IF YOU
PLEASE.

1t Is but natural, after all, that the
Pioneer Press should try to place else
where than in its own party the ICON
spiracy' to defeat Senator DAVIS. 1t
is always some one besides ourselves to
blame for our mistakes and slips. This
has been true ever since ADAM laid the
blame Oh EVE for that little affair of
the apple. So we cali understand why
our esteemed, If often erring, contem-
porary finds that wicked Democrats
were the tempters of the virtue of its
innocent fellow Republicans.
But we do doubt the sincerity of the
belief of our contemporary in its own
statement. The facts were so transpar-
ent, the attitude OF the Democracy so
open and so consistent, that all talk of
a Democratic conspiracy is but the ere
alton of an imagination anxious to locate
a bad door in a neighbours house rather
than admit that it is in its own. The
GLOBE has expressed the sentiment of
the Democracy in this fight. IL is true
that there were individual Democrats
who wished and doubtless worked for
the defeat of the senator on personal
grounds; but it was generally felt that
his election was desirable from broad
grounds of party benefit. The Democ-
racy felt that it could ask the Repub-
licanS TO do them no 81 eater good than
to emphasize their occupation Of the
advanced paternalstic position on
which the senator stood. We had fought
national fight Oh that ground, and
were content to have the Republicans
remain on it.
There were other grounds. 1t was
as certain as any move in poll
tics could be, that if the sena-
ator were defeated it would be
by the use of Doodle by some candi-
date in his party ambitious, wealthy and
INSCRIPTIONS enough to use it. Such
struggle would be nothing but de-
bauch of corruption, paralleling, posi-
bly, eclpsing, some of those which the
state has already witnessed. 1t was
possible that in such scramble for votes
the Democratic contingent might be
smirChed with the suspicion of corrup-
ton by the possible support Of the sue
cessful candidate by few of its men,
| bers. For the good name of the state
and for the good of its own party, the
GLOBE. for these and the other reason
stated. is glad that there was no pro-
longed contest, and that there were no
further cases Of corruption than those
rumored to have taken place, but which
it does not expect the Pioneer Press to
demand an investigation of.

INTERSTATE AMENDMENTS
Favored by the National Board of
Trade.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The national
board of trade spent the morning ses-
sion today largely in discussing pro-
posed amendments to the interstate
commerce act. IT. was resolved that
amendments should be favored giving
effect to orders of the interstate COM
mission eXempting witnesses from GRIM
inal penalties; making corporations in
dictable and punishable for violations;
a definition of the scope OF the act to
cover all carriers and persons engaged
in interstate commerce, imposing de-
murrage for unreasonable delays and in
surfing freedom from unreasonable
declaration of exemption in contracts
for interstate carriage. st. Louis. New
York ana Philadelphia favored official
aid to the Nicaragua canal. A national
naval reserve was advocated. Upon the
subject of ship canal around Niagara
and from the lakes to the sea, respect
ing which Albany, Cincinnati, Roches-
ter and Duluth chambers of commerce
asked action, the board adopted the
resolution, proposed by Albany, urging
congress to appropriate 100000 to make
a survey of the proposed canal.

And No Premiums.

In China there is no such thing as the
periodic press. The only news paper
published in the empire, the Tin Boo.
is the imperial organ ana is devoted
principally to the publication of official
nominations. 1t only incidentally prints
any news. and this is wholly untrust-
worthy. being usually entirely false.
Chinese journalism proper consists of
posters. handbills, circulars and little
political pamphlets, of which great
number are printed from time to tim e..
and the country is usually deluged with
them on the eve of the sanguinary
movements of which the Europeans are
commonly the victims.
