Ths South Dakota Messenger

PIERRE, s. D., Jan. 11.-Thc state
electors had quite an interesting scrap
over the selection of the messenger to
carry South Dakota's electoral
vote to Washington. General
Silsby, of Mitchell, was ANXIOUS
to go and early in November
wrote to the other three electors ask
ing their support; all promised.
On arrival here Silsby found that
chas: J. liuell, of Rapid City, was also a
candidate but secret one. Buell. had
lad quietly secured the backing of the
other two electors. But Silsby
did not give up and in
sisted on Buell. fulfilling his
November pledge, Silsby voting for
himself. The vote stood two and two
through along series of ballots. Finally
recess was taken and after caucusing
Buell. refused longer to support the
general and voted for himself and was
chosen.

The Railroads Ara Alarm.d.

PIERRE, S. D.. Jan. 1e.-Thcre is no
question that the railroads are greatly
alarmed over threatened legislation,
particularly over the undoubtedly hos
tile temper of the house. Sterling. kit
redge, Phillips and Hunter are hust-
ling hard am ong the members of the
house and senate and are endeavoring
to form combinations by which all this
sort of bills may be permanently
side-traclsed. The character of the
measures introduced were shown when
Mr.. Maschow proposed that railroads
shall furnish empty cars within five
days to any one demanding them and
shall ut all times keep warehouse room
Mt every station sufficient to meet all
requirements, failure in either to be
punished by fine of $500.

DRUGGISTS LOVE PROHIBITION
The South Dakota Pharmacists Lobbying
Against Resubmissicn.

Against Resubmisscn.
PIERRE, S. d., Jan. 1l.-A bomb was
exploded in the resubmission camp by.
the discovery that a number of drug
gists are here quietly working among
the members for the continuance of
the present prohibitory law. It
had been generally supposed that
they would sympathize with the other
liquor sellers and the latter are highly
indignant. Under'the prohibitory law
she druggists are permitted to sell any
sort of liquors, wine or beer by the
glass. provided the purchaser signs an
affidavit That he is afflicted with some
complaint. Stomach trouble is the
usual disease to be remedied
and according to the books
of ailidavits filed by many druggists
this illness prevails to a tremendous ex-
tent and requires treatment times
per day. So long as these atiidavits
are signed there is no legal restraint
upon sales and proprietors OF drug
stores have multiplied enormously.
This discovery has made the resub-
missionists very angry and it is more
than likely, should the druggists per-
sist, they will introduce and pass a bill
making it very hot for them.

ton to Be Niggard'y.
PIERRE, S. d., Jan. 1.-THE Joint
committees of the senate and the house
on the worlds fair held long session.
There was much disagreement over the
amount of the appropriation for the
worlds fair. Only one member, Sol
Starr. favored $4,000 and the
majority were for $40, 900.
The committees decided to meet
separately und report to joint confer
ence later. The state commission is
disgusted and is seriously talking Of
giving up the exhibit and selling the
building to Virginia or some other
state which has no building or site.
The commission says that most of
the expense SO far has been on the
building and should the appropriation
be inadequate. they will dispose Of the
latter, as they have right to do, and
reimbur those who subscribed the
original 5000 fund. The commission
ers have never. drawn salaries and in
most cases have paid their own,
expenses. Sol Starr, chairman of the
committee of the senate, is still conf
dent that ample appropriations will be
secured, but the general belief is that
the sum will be cut below $50, 900.

A ROYAL WEDDING.
Marriage Of Prince Ferdinand Of Roumania
and Princess Marie of Edn,urgh,

BERLIN. Jan. 1.-THE marriage of
Prince Ferdinand crown prince of
Roumania, and the Princess Marie of
Edinburg, second child and eldest
daughter of his royal highness, the
duke of Edinburgh, and granddaughter
Of Queen Victoria, was solemized today
with considerable pomp and ceremony
at the castle of Sigmaringen. 1t had
at one time been expected that her
majesty, the queen, as well as the
prince and princess of Wales would be
present at the ceremony, but owing to
the fact that today is the first anniver-
sary of the death of the duke of Clar-
ence. and that from supcrstitious mo-
tives the duke of Edinburgh had de-
clined to change the date when the
mistake was discovered, the queen and
the prince We're represented by Sir
| Edward Mallet, British ambassa dor
at Berlin. Over 1000 guests had been
Invited to the function, and it had been
found necessary to build IN entirely
new wing TO the castle for their accom-
modation. Prior to the religious rites
the civil marriage was performed by
the Ronmanian minister plenipoten-
tiary at Berlin, Prince Gregory Chika.
The royal guests included King Charles,
Of Roumania: the Emperor William,
resenting King iIumbert; the ArchdulSe
Leopold, representing the Emperor Fran
sisJoseph; the crown princean princess

the conclusion of the religious rites a
wedding breakfast was served in the
banqueting hall Of the palace, after
Which the bride exchanged her wedding
dress for a gown of lavender gray
cloth, and the couple took their de-
parture for one of the castles of Prince
Leopold, of Observation-Disclosures,
father of the br br.dgroom. The wedding
presents included silver service from
the women of Great Britain, a writing
set in silver from the officers of the
naval garrison ut Plymouth. The
queens gift to the bridegroom was the
grand cross of the Order of the Bath,
and his acceptance will entail upon
him the expenditure of nearly $500 as
investiture fees. The honeymoon will
last two weeks and the royal couple
will then go to Roumania.

.Iha AdIutant Can ,ral,bi.

PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 12.-For some
weeks there has been an exciting hus-
tie among the politicians of South Da-
llota for the position of adiutant-gen-
eral. The governor has tiually set the
matter at rest by offering the position
to General Geo. A. Sitsby, of Mitchell,
and the latter has it under considera-
ton and will probably accept. Cen
eral Silsby is post commander of the
state Grand Army of the Republic and
at present inspector general of the
CT

who think they are about the right
size to fill these positions are Daniel
o. Kane, eX-sheriff of Aurora county;
John Stolt, G. 3. Bunting, c. LeBlond
and Charles Gilman, the last four are
residents of Chamberlain.
At Yankton not much stir has vet
been made by candidates for federal
positions there. The postoffice is the
only desirable Office there. The candi-
dates for the land office positions are
few and of little prominence as the
fees are small and continually being re-
dnced, SO that they present but small
temptation to the greater lights in the
democratic party.
The postottices are OF course confined
to the choice of local applicants, and
the most of the land office positions
will be settled in the same manner as
by the republican party. This will
leave such things as consulates, Indian
appointments, department places, etc,
for the interior" applicants.
The position of United States district
attorney is specially desirable and
those who are making eyes at the place
are Judge II. Z. Fellows, of Aurora
county, and Samuel A. Ramsey, Of
Sanborn county, both of whom would
fill the position with credit.
For the United States marshalship
such well known men as Otto Pee
miller, chairman of the state central
committee, and Pat Wickhem, of Ham
son county, one of the delegates to the
Chicago convention, have been com
mented on.
For commissioner of the general land
office General Maris Taylor, of Huron,
late esurveyor-general, would be accept.

could secure a desirable administrative
position in Washington il he desires
one.
Major w. w. Anderson, of Brule
county. ex-lndian agent at Crow Creek
and Lower Brule agency, and Major
William Mclaughlin, ex-Indian agent
at Standing Rock agency, are on the
hustle for commissioner of Indian af-
fairs.
The meeting of the state central
committee today, besides settling
the claims of this and that candi-
date, will also make arrangements to
secure early recognition at the hands
of the incoming administration in the
matter of appointments. The average
democrat otficesee,1er wantsan appoint
lnent as soon after March 4 as the mill
of the administration can grind out the
Offices. This they claim is proper rs it
will follow in the footsteps Of the re-
publican administration in turning out
democrats and putting republicans in
four years ago.

ton will undoubtedly be opened some
time in April or May of the present
year. Most of the land will be taken
by the Indiansin severalty, there being
about 1,2O0 Indians on the reservation
who will have first choice of the land
to be opened. This will leave about
$50 claims for disposal to white settlers
and as the land is among the richest
agricultural land in the state there will
bea big rush for these few claims.
Settlers and residents of the counties
adjoining the reservation have looked
upon its lands with envious eyes for
years on account of the fertility of the
soil and other natural advantages.
