WORK OF THE LAWMAKERS.

some Of the Bills before the State Legis-
lature.
Among the bills especially interesting to
South Dakota farmers is No. 247, which
limits the profits to be made on repairs to
machinery and would compel manufac-
turers Of all the different kinds of ma
chinery offered for sale in the state to keep
full sets of repairs at convenient repcsi-
tories. There has been no one particular
line Of articles on which greater profit has
been charged than on the duplicate pieces
OF machinery used for repairs. Pr b,bly
an average Of anywhere from 500 to 900
per cent. profit has usually been charged,
which has gone either to the pockets of the
local dealers or to the manufacturer.
The price at which simple castings have
beef held has been outrageous.
Pretty sharp lobbying is also now being
employed in regard to the formation of a
new circuit out of the Third and Fifth Cir
cults. 1t is understood the bill is opposed
by both Judge Andrews and Judge Camp
bells, and their opposition is not readily
understood. Campbell formerly expressed
his inability to attend to all the work de-
manded by the immense circuit over which
he presides.
A large amount of routine business was
transacted in the Senate on the 9th, and
yet no measures of very general impor-
lance were up, unless it was the bill which
authorizes the Orphans Home at Sioux
Falls to legally give to people the right
that arises in the adoption of children.
This bill is a precursor of another bill now
on its way, which allows proper authority
to consign orphan children that might 9TH
erwise be confined IN the reform school to
be given to people who may desire to
adopt them. Another act Of the Senate
was a motion toeXpunge all record OF their
action on the silver memorial.

The Ghost of q Chance

Is very shadowy affair. Ere the chance of recovery becomes vanishing ghost take most potent means of overoom- ing the inactivity of the organs that ter inmates in too frequent fatal disease by resorting to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which gives just the requisite impulse to the renal organs to promote their wig orous action without exciting them, an effect too often produced by the fiery and unmedicated stimulants of commerce. Brights disease, diabetes and inactiv- ity of the bladder are foes of terrible menace to the system. The inroads may, however, be stayed if they are met at the start and combatted with the bitters. This fine and genial corrective also rem edies malaria, dyspepsia. rheumatism, debility, nervousness and the infirmities incident to age. It hastens convales- cence and is promotive of sleep and appe- tite. -l.--

PRESS OPINIONS.
This Sort of Stuff.

Here is the sort of stuff that the free silver organs in the south are printing as argument for free coinage. The ex- tract is from a country newspaper in Georgia, but the Atlanta Constitution reprints it with apparent approval:
 All who have no dollars in their pock- cts, but are In favor of having a gold, sil- yer, paper, pewter or any other kind of a dollar, stand up and be counted. Jeru- salem! There are so many we haven't got time to count them. Good. Now, take your tickets and vote for Ameri- can money and American independence, as our forefathers did in 1776 Let's dis solve the Cleveland and Carlisle-Roths- child British bankers partnership at the next election"
 If this means anything it is that free coinage of silver will put money into the pockets of everybody, no matter whether they have anything to give for 1t or not-which is a notion worthy of the widest believer in the duty of congress to make every one of us rich.-Spring- field Republican.

Overrates It's A bility

The State has one fault that is, it overrates it's ability In other words, it boldly asserts what big "I' will do. The truth about the business is, the State is small potatoes and very few in the hill" It can never lead, because its path Is too circuitous. It is attempting to encircle too much. To be leader you have to take the shortest distance from one ob- ject to another, which is a straight line
 While time lasts you cannot encircle goldbugism and bimetallism, two per- feet party oppostes in one party circle. If you can, then the reason for the ex- istence of two parties ceases to exist. One or the other of these two extremes had better leave the democratic party, for, remember, a house divided against itself is sure to fall This is holy writ, so the State can wiggle about so as to use the silver man to secure a nomina- ton for a certain candidate and then say to the goldbugs, you must elect him. The States maneuverS remind us of Lincolns SOW, which attempted to cover too much ground. The SOW kept swim ming the river to find a bed; finally she did worse than drowning herself The State is going to keep bragging about swimming first up to one bank of the river and then the other, then trying to pull the two banks together, until the State loses a family of pigs in the mid dle of the river.-Huntsville Tribune.

 shields. Once a nom de plume is as stunned it is difficult to get rid of it.
 While the majority of men are quite willing to admit that women are now ex- ceiling in all branches of science, litera- ture or fine arts, they still ridicule the idea that she can ever make any sort of a success at mechanical inventions. A correct list of patents issued to women by the commissioner of patents in Wash ington, has lately been seen, and this list should forever put at rest all doubts concerning the inventive genius of the women of our own country For instance, the fountain pen, which gives so much solace to our incredulous male friends, was invented January 29, 1858, by Susan E. Taylor of East Cambridge, Mass; April 16, 1S45, submarine telescope and lamp by Sarah P. Mather. These are only two examples to show what women can do.
 ] am frequently struck with the way the words woman" and lady" have changed places "A woman is the last thing God created and by far the best, and means half the creation.-Selected. The following is such good advice for young girls that it is reproduced. hoping that 1t may fall upon the heart of every young girl who reads II ana make Sucn lasting impression that they ever re- member it. "Do not be in hurry to become young women; remain girls as long as you can. Make the most of your jolly untram- meled today Scatter benedictions as only girls can scatter. Cause your home to resound with your heartful song and laughter. Force the wrinkles from your fathers and mothers brow. Thank God for the golden today, and drink from it's pure fountains of pleasure Make the world better by your having lived in it. You do not realize the good you can do." Florence Times.
 There is a great diversity of opinion regarding womanS sphere in life, but "They talk about womans sphere as if
 it had a limit
 There's not place in earth or heaven, There's not a task to mankind given, There's not blessing or woe,
 There's not an answer--yes or no There's not a life. or death, or birth, That has feathers weight of worth Without a woman in it."

They'll Borrow Bomhast.

The first thing we know we shall have the silver men stealing a favorite trick of the extreme tariff men and claiming that the current advance in prices and the evidences of business prosperitysare all due to the prospect of free coinage at the 16 to ratio That free coinage will lift prices is the principal argument of the silverite creed, and what is more reasonable than that coming events should cast their shadows before in the When business became bad last year 1t was ascribed to the democratic victory in 1892, and now such partisans are talk ing about the excellent effect on business of the republican victory last fall and the prospect of republican congress next winter. Who shall blame the over confident silver men if they borrow this bombast ?-Springfield Republican.

A Fact, Not a Theory.

This is fact, and not theory, which confronts the financier. It is useless to argue that if gold had been treated in the same way it's commercial value would have decreased to the same ex-. tent Granting that this proposition be true the fact remains that gold was not so treated. It was preferred before sil- yer all the commercial nations, while silver was held in marked disesteem. It is not theory, but fact, that has to be dealt with. The best financiers in the country do not believe that the United Gates, unaided, can restore the commer- cial value of silver in the markets of the world to its coin value as estimated for the standard dollar, and they hold that any attempt to do so single-handed would result in violent and serious finan- cial disturbances. All the great nations acting together can put silver in the place from which they removed 1t. but one alone cannot. Efforts have been made in the way of international coin commissions to restore silver, but they have not been successful-New Orleans Picayune.
