SOUTH DAKOTA IN CONGRESS.

If anyone has had a notion that
South Dakota a not getting its share
of legislation from congress, and that a
strong team was not at the helm doing
some strong pulling, let them observe
these few pointers for a moment:
Location of U. S. court at Aberdeen.
For preserving river banks at Pierre.
$4,000.
For paying settlers who were driven
off Grow Greek reservation in 1885 by
Cleveland, $4,000.
For additional artesian wells at Pine
Ridge and Rosebud agencies, $4,000.
Bridge franchise across the Missouri
river at Yanktoii.
Order to proeeed with Indian school
buildings at RMpid City and Chamber
lain.
Ratification of Yankton Indiantreaty.
involving nearly s30.OOO.OOO.
For payment of scouts in war of 1864.
$4,000.
Payment to teachers and employees
for loss at Pine Ridge fire. $1,000.
Adding 100000 to the fund to distrib-
ute seeds.
Secured Il large number of pensions
and increase of pension for deserving
veterans.
Secured the favorable report from
public building committee upon cree
ton of Il 100000 public building at
Deadwood.
Besides many other minor matters.
such as Strengthening out knotty land
titles. etc.
These are some of the things that
Congressman Lucas and Pickler have
worked shoulder to shoulder in sccur-
ing from "a democratic congress. and
which required no small amount of
hard work during the depressed con-
dition of the national treasury.
Other legislation they have we'll
under way that is of much Importance
to the state, and the country in gen
eral.
In the irrigation bill Capt. Lucas Sc
curec Il clause appropriating $4,000 for
%irrigating experiments in the Black
Hills, in the way of constructing reser-
voirs, basins, dams, etc. This is a COM
promise bill reported by the committee,
and if sufficient time is given to the
discussion of this important measure it
will undoubtedly be passed before ad-
journment. Reports from Washington
indicate that the committee will argue
for the passage of the bill before the
house.
AS to the sanitarium bill, this demo-
cratic congress has not been inclined
to do any more for the union veteran
than was almost forced upon them to
do. and made al adverse report to the
sanitarium bill because of Il depleted
treasury. But the bill is regarded with
favor by all republicans and will become
a law and the sanitarium probably To-
Gated at Hot Springs during the COM
ing congress.
Lucas and Picker. i'll working for
these various bills have made a strong
team indeed-one that it would be diff
ticult to beat-besides making a mag
nificent record in all important legisla-
ton for the nation at large. With the
next republican congress their services
will be much more valuable, fully UNI
derstanding every detail of the work
before them.

The independent party evidently
hopes to capture the large labor vote of
the Hills by their nominating four can
didates from here. but the republican
party will hardly be caught in that par
ticular. for it seems to he the general
sentiment that besides congressman
the party will nominate state treas
nrer. labor commissioner and IL rail
road commissioner from the Hills. thus
enabling us to hold the magnificent
majority. that the republicans redeemed
two years ago by having IL nominee for
congress from the Hills and 10y an eN-
cellent campaign in every way. The
party must have the Hills-and they
know how to get them.

THE PREVAILING ..1prr-

We now believe Mr.. Lucas, according
to presidents as we'll as for his excel.
lent services. is entitled to renomina.
ton by the republicans. Capt. Lucas
has done good service. and the Hills,
we believe, will find it much easier to
renominate him than any other Black
Hills man. An attempt to change may
lose us the congressman from this sec
ton entirely STAR.
We are impressed with the same
''idee." Unless the Black Hills have an
assurance that they can and will GET
the senator to be elected by the next
legislature next winter, we had better
hold on to Lucas and s'stay with him"
He has made a good representative. has

WILL STAY WITH TOLD SHADY +"

1t is wel1 known fact, politically
speaking, that in the opinion of Dead
wood people, the kingdom of Lawrence
county contains all the brains and
craftsmanship of the Black Hills-and
should therefore be the home of all
Hills candidates for Office. 1t has been
given out that the western counties are
solid for the Deadwood candidate for
state treasurer, also that that place has
at least two aspirants who will be can
didates for congress to succeed Capt.
Lucas; and of course the other counties
or outside provinces are expected to
fall into line in the wake of the little
kingdom. Will they do it? Judging
from many expressions we have heard
and read W. are led to believe that
Pennington, Custer and Fall River
counties are practically solid for Capt.
Lucas return to his seat i'll congress;
and these counties are entitled to one
more vote in the state convention than
Lawrence. 1t is probably true that
these counties favor the nomination of
a Deadwood man for state treasurer.
but it is also true that they are not so
solid but that opposition to Capt. Lucas
on the part of Lawrence county dele
gates will probably have the effect to
knock out not only their candidate for
treasurer. but for congressman
also. Captain Lucas has been
instrumental in doing much more
for his constituency than most republi-
can members of this present democratic
congress have been able to do, and it is
fair and right that he should have All
opportunity to work in another where
his ability will have a wider field. At
any rate it is not proposed to set him
aside to satisfy the vaulting ambition
of some unfiedged politician, east or
west, without a struggle; and that the
struggle will result d~isastrously to
Lawrence county aspirants is a fore
gone conclusion. The chances are that
the same logic we'll apply to the aspi-
rations of Mr.. Gamble of Sioux Falls.
Anyway we will gamble that he will
not get there.-Hill City Tin Miner.

The editor of the Deadwood Pioneer
is said to be sorely afflicted in a politi
cal way. He don't know what ails him.
or why things are thusly. or why they
ought to be otherwise. But like some
populists that we know of who are
credited with having wheels constantly
buzzing i'll their head. he contendst there
ought to be a change in state affairs.
If he would change diet. drinks or
habits in some way he might see things
differently. Some people like the Pho
neer man wanted "a change in govern
ment two years ago. They got it. Some
people know when they have got
enough. aud some do not.

TALLY as follows: The governor appointed
a cosnmittee consisting of Gen. Geo. w,

commander of the G. A. r.. Judge G. G.
Bennett of Deadwood and Col. Chas. S.
Blodgett of Kimball to investigate the COM
plants made against the management of
the soldiers home. and the c~ommaudant
in particular. The investigation was
made at Hot Springs on Monday. Tuesday
and Wednesday of last week and the COM
mittee gave the greatest latitude to their
investigation. One day the testimony was
entirely ex parte. the co%mmandant not
being present. and another day it was held
in Chambers Kellar's office down town so
that no complainant could hesitate to APP
pear before the committee. All complain
ants were urged to be present at the meet
ing of the board at DeSmet and before the,
committee at the Springs. and the utmost
fairness was shown everybody. DIR. Nes-
NTH. who made complaint against Capt.
Megrew. was invited and urged twice to
appear before the board meeting at De-
Smet and twice also at the Springs. but he
did not show up anywhere. The other
complainants we're present at the meeting
and they were all discharged employees and
men discharged for drunkenness.
Mr.. clough stated that no formal report
has been made yet by the committee, but
that he was informed by them of their
findings and that the complaints were
without foundation. The committee sus-
tanned and commended the management.
