astically in favor OF putting this new line
through in order to get better commune
in Dakota, and guaranteed that
Arlington would furnish right-of.way
through Kingsbury county.
Editor T~omlinson, of Sioux Fails,
thought their city too far removed from
the other cities OF the state for want OF
better connecting lines, and believed
that il these cities stood together for
their mutual interests they could get the
lines they wanted. This idea OF unity
would send Dakota forging ahead.
J A Trow, OF Madison, desired to see
more roads in Dakota. and felt sure that
Madison, being the "Hub" OF the state,
would get them anyway, but Madison
wishes direct connecting lines with many
other cities in Dakota, especially Sioux
Falls, and will meet them halfway in
any Of these enterprises. He regretted
the WATERFOWL committee had not come
with some definite proposition to act
upon.
r ID Fits also vouched for Madison's
willingness TO help in securing any kind
OF road.
On motion a,committee was appointed
to present a resolution expressing the
desire of the meeting in the matter, and
to report at 8 a m to-day.
The committee consisted or w II

Falls; Vale P Thielman, Parker; G w

At 9 a m this morning the representa-
tives met, and listened to the report of
the committee which was adopted:
Whereas, This conference of repre-
sentatives from Watertown, Arlington,
Madison, Sioux Falls, Parker and Yank-
ton, deem it devisable and feasible to
build a railroad from a point near the
north line of South Dakota through the
Sisseton reservation, Watertown, Ar.

It is therefore,

THE GREAr oULF syoRM

The great gulf storm, following, as it
does, the awful work of wind and water
along the Atlantic coast but n few weeks
ago, spreads desolation and destruction
in another portion of the already heav-
lily burdened south. Estimates of the
loss of life and property have now con-
siderable basis for their foundation, but,
rs in so. many other similar instances,
the whole truth in that respect can
never be asccrtained. The reports that
have reached us, however, make the
calamity a sufficiently appalling one.
Nearly 1880 dead, thousands injured or
rendered homeless and without employ
ment, pecuniary damages to property
running up into the millions, mark the
storm of Sunday as the most destructive
that has visited any section of the
United States in recent years.
Every such disaster as that that has
just befallen the people along the gulf
must bring out the sympathy of the en-
tire country. The hclplessness of the
survivors calls for assistance in every
possible way. Their misfortune can be
attributed to no fault of theirs nor can
their suffering be termed deserved in
any sense. Coming, as it docs, at a time
when the trying season of the year is
fast approaching, the great storm leaves
its victims without resource to tide them
over until a new supply of necessaries
can be obtained in the customary chan
mel. Subscriptions were started in
several of the eastern cities Immediately
after the recent Atlantic coast storm
and the sufferers were accorded no little
aid from charitably disposed citizens of
the north. While as yet no regular
appeal for help has risen from the gulf
states, it will no doubt not long be de-
layed. In such case the people Of the
north should not be outdone in charita-
bic generosity by those of the south,
when the demand for assistance comes
from a people known to be too poor to
Withstand unaided a loss of so great a
magnitude.

THE TREASURY SiTUlTION.

The last treasury statement does not
make m encouraging exhibit. 1t shows
a further decline in the cash balance,
which at the beginning Of the current
month was only q little more than 3d.
900, 600 above the gold reserve. and CON
sists really of the subsidiary coin, the
greater part Of which is abraded and UNI
current, SO that there is in fact practi-
cally no cash balance in the treasury
excepting the gold reserve, and that has
been depleted to the extent of nearly
81, DOC, 900. The net gold in the treas
ury is now less than at any time
since the gold reserve was started,
and il it were not for the
large increase in the gold receipts
for customs the amount OF gold in the
treasury would be much lower than it is.
During the last ten days of September
IS per cent of the customs receipts were
in gold coin, where as for the same period
a year ago not one cent in gold coin was
received for customs dues, and this
marked change has been in effect since
July.
49, 'fcs I'eA ~ Vi w "a Gnu hOCul
year ended September 30 and the re-
ceipts OF the treasury for that period
were more than 800 900, 900 less than for
the corresponding period of last year.
On the other hand, the expenditures
were over $1,000, 900 in excess of those
for the first quarter of the last fiscal
year. In other words, the treasury
an,nnnt at tho and nf tho H,at thpoa
months of the fiscal year 1893 is more
han so, 000, 900 worse off than at the
corresponding time in 1892. The ex-
ponditures would have been larger by
80, 1905 900 but for the arbitrary method
OF suspending pension payments, and as
most of the money thus withheld will
undoubtedly have to be paid sooner or
later, not much of a mistake will be
made in regarding it as an obligation Of
the treasury. According to the present
showing it seems safe to assume that at
the end OF the fiscal year the deficit
will not fall short of $50, 0O0,-
OOO, and it is more likely to
exceed that amount. If the pension
payments were made the deficit would
pS lS0AS SISabCI LIdl appear On the
face OF the treasury statement, and in
addition 10 this the appropriations for
|. rivers and harbOrs, public buildings and
other improvements have been held up.
An analysis of the figures shows that
the treasury is a good deal worse OFF
than appears on the surface and the sit
nation certainly suggests that this is not
a favorable time for proposing changes
in h fiscal policy of the government
that would probably have the effect to
further reduce the income. What is
manifestly demanded is legislation that
Will put more money into the treasury,
II this will not be accomplished by tar
i'll revision in the direction of free trade
or any economic plans which tend to
curiail the industrial operations Of the
country. Since July l the receipts from
customs have been more than sl3, 00O, 900

less than during the corresponding
period las year, while the internal rev
enno receipts show a falling off Of about
$4,000, 900. Every practical man will
understand the meaning of these figures.
The revenue from customs will perhaps
make a better showing for the second
quarter Of the fiscal year, but there is
no probability, Judging from the pres
ent cDndition Of business in the country,
that integral revenue receipts will show
any Improvement. Bat for the gold re-
serve the national treasury would be
very close TO insolvency.
