OUR representatives from the law max
ing assembly at the state ~capltalhave re-
turned to their home and their acts as
law makers are ended unless a special
session Of the legislature ID convened by
the governor which is not very probable
and a discussion OF the measures pro.
posed and supported ly ourrepresentiyes
10 in order, or the UNION believes in
holding all the sevants OF the people to
a strict accountability for the sacred
trust reposed in them by the people. as
the writer has not yet received acopy of
the laws enacted during the last session
OF the legislature, (Which he has sent
for): a special criticism OF the laws en-
acted or proposed is not possible at the
present time but we have yet to be APP
prlsed OF any law passed that will ma
terialy aid in developing the great ma
tional of this section of the
state or that will enable those who pro-
duce the greater share of the wealth Of
the community to receive agreater share
of the profits Of their labor. The mem
bers Of the legislature elected by the
Peoples party as the champion. OF the
wealth producers OF the state owed it to
their c~onstituence to draft and present
for enactment some proposed laws that
would be of great Importance to that
portion OF the citizens; that they were in
q minority and probably would not
have secured their enactment into laws:
we admit, but as a propaganda for fu-
ture political campaigns in this state
they would be Invaluable and would
place before the people in a plain man
ner the practical methods OF reform pro-
posed bv that party and would have In
disputable proof of their rejection by all
the other political parties and if after
three political campaigns OF the Peoples
party in this state their representatives
in the halls Of legislation have failed to
present some plan OF reieif for the mas
SOS OF the people of the state they have
been found wanting in the practlble SOL
utlon Of the problems l political econ
omy and the voters will ~relegate them
to obscurity in future campaigns. The
UNION expects to publish such laws en-
acted as are Of local interest to it's
readers.

ment Of it or there would be little in-
ducement to invest money in it.. The
proposition most favored was to appro.
pirate water at Rapid City below the
Rapid River Mill but much doubt WAS
expressed as to building reservoirs sui
ficent to hold the waters of Rapid creek
during the winter season which would
have to be done as the water during the
spring months is claimed by prior water
rights; much stress was put upon COM
mencing the dam on bed rock to prevent
the water from passing through the
soil under the dam. In numbers the
meeting was not as largely attended as
the previous one and many present were
men whose farms are now irrigated from
Rapid creek and could give testimony as
to the expense and profit OF irrigation
and the projects proposed were such
as to demand the outlay OF q large
amount OF capital and a united COM
munity to complete the enterprise.

The entertainment given on Tuesday
evening ut Library Hall by the Kings

ton of the Freuch play, CAN Well that

engaged on the stage who used the
French Language during the act and al
though but few in the audience could
understand the conversations yet the
hearers could percelye the inteuded plot
OF the play and many parts were en-
thuastically applauded. Much credit is

something new IN the way OF literary
entertainments.
The secondp part consisted VI vocal and
instrumental music, Rotations, tab
leaus etc. by some Of the very best tai

suIa-Formosa Conquered.


suIa--Formosa Conquered.
WASHINGTON, November b.
The purpose of Japan is to eva
cuate Port Arthur and the Lao
Tung peninsula by February 10th
next, which is three months from
the date of the payment by China
of the 1900, 900 taeIs agreed up
on for the evacuation. While
three months is fixed as the time
within which the evacuation may
be- made, it is probable that the
japanese will not take the limit
of time, but will set about retir-
ing from Port Arthur Immediate
ly upon the payment of the 3d.
600 900 taels on next Tuesday, as
the cost of the maintenance of an
army is very heavy.
1t is understood also that a
further feature Of the treaty for
the surrender of Port Arthur is
that its evacuation by japan will
not be followed by Il cession of the
fortress to any other power. An
unofficial statement to this effect
has been made and is credited
here, but the Japanese legation
has received no official advices.
Late mail advices to the Lega-
ton satisfy the officials that the
rebellion in Formosa is over and
that the rebel leader has surrend-
cred. lie offered to make a condi-
tional surrender some time ago,
!SNt the japanese would not give
conditions to the rebels. Since
then the officials believe he has
yielded Internationally, and the
war or rebellion is at an end.
