the junction toward Annapolis and the

South Dakota Citizens Pleased with the
Unusual Snow Fall.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. d., Feb. 3.-(Special
to The Bee.)-Ihe people in this section
and throughout the state are unanimous in
saying that more snow has fallen thi
winter than during any winter since that
of 1880, when the snow fall was so great
that when the snow went off In the spring
every lake bed was filed to the brim with
water. AS a result crops were good during
the succeeding two or three years. Since
that time and until this winter the Snow
fall has gradually decreased and crops were
poorer each season. Last year there were
but two lake beds In the state that had any
water in them. Red Lake, in this county,
was a large body of water up to n few years
ago, but it steadily dried and last year was
entirely dry. 1t Is the general belief that
the great snow fall this winter will again
fill many of these lake beds the coming
spring and that crops will he good for sew
eral years to come. Stock on the coded
Sioux and ranges is in good condition. The
recent cold weather was hard on the cattle,
but they are rapidly recovering and in a few
weeks time will be in their customary first
class condition. AS far as can be learned
from the stockmen who arrive here no
losses occurred on the ranges during the
severe weather.

The term OF onicc OF ID. y. Miller Of Red

tween Bradley Of Audubon and Duggan Of
Crcston. Both men had strong backing,
but Duggau was supposed to have rather
the advantage of his opponent by reason of
his connection with the Burlington road.
The attorney general, having been attorney
for the Burlington up to the time Of his
appointment to n position in the cabinet, the
latter was supposed to signify that the
president had a soft spot In his heart toward
that company and would further manifest it
by giving Il Sc, 1000 plum TO Duggnn. ,

the next marshal now state that his chances
are slim. One of these centlcmetL who

turned from Des Nloines. and states that the
opinion prevails there that the next mar
shall will not be either Duggan or Bradley,
but Ed Hunter Of Des Moines. Hunter was
never mentioned until about n week ago.
and his becoming n candidate then was due
to u complication in connection with the APP
pointment Of the Des Moines postmaster.
lie and Colonel Eiboeck were both candidates
for the office ami there was n bitter fight he
tween them, of a good deal the same nature
as the one that was recently on in this CITY
for the same Office.
The light waved so bitter that In order to
heal up the wounds both of the contestants
had to have Offices, instead of neither OF
them, as in the Council Bluffs fight. Hunter
was induced to switch his aspirations to the
marshal's Office, so as TO leave Eiboeck in
possession of the field, so far us the postoftice
was concerned. The gentleman above re-
ferred to states that the prevailing opinion
among democratic politicians in the capital
city Is that when the appointments are made
1t will be found that the slate has been doc
tored ia this manner, and both Hunter and
Eiboeck will find themselves IN possession of
a persiuimon apiece. Hunter was in Wash
ington about n week ago, when it Is SAID this

SOME RAILROAD MEASURES.
The railroad legislation this session prom
ises to'be of considerable Importance. Bills
are pending authorizing one railroad COM
pany to purchase the bonds and securities
of another; to require the use of the inter
loChluB bWltC0, anu 10 make all mlleaRc
books transferable and tickets good until
used" Horton has also introduced a bill
empowering the Board of Railroad
Commissioners to order the erec-
ton of private crossings and cattle
guards at such reasonable place as may be
designated by the owner Of the land. Chair
man Coonley Of the railroad committee of
the house introduced a bill requiring rail
roads to lease the ground for elevators. coal
sheds and similar purposes for a term of
years, instead Of only one, as is now the
rule.
These various measures are bringing the
usual lobby upon the scene, and the pros
poets of any of them becoming a law are not
very brilliant.
The bills for the support of the State uni
versity have finally been introduced in both
houses. They call for an appropriation of
$3.50, 900 and a special tax of two-tenths Of a
mill upon all the property of the state,
which would bring in an annual income at
the present rate of assessment from this
source of $500, 900. The same favor in the
way of a special tax is also requested by
the Agricultural college. The sentiment in
to increasing the public burdens or taking
the control Of the state finances out of the
hands of either house.
Important developments are confidently
looked for during the coming week in re-
spect to liquor legislation. That the senate
committee will agree upon and report some
bill for favorable action is more than prob
able.
