thirds to move it away from the cen

T.. W. Stafford will be in tonight.
PIERRE, S. ID. FEB. 10, '95,
While the members of the Fourth
session of the Legislature do not ne
elect the social side of life, in fact
are inclined to conviviality, still they
attend strictly to business. In this
respect the Senate is ahead of the
House but more on account of its
being easier to dispatch business in
a smaller body. Both bodies are now
holding morning and afternoon SEES
SONS and matters are being rushed.
Up to the 10th day, more bills
have been introduced than were in
troduced in the entire session two
years ago and the cry is Still they
Gomez The consequence is a great
er rush at the windup and a greater
humber Vi uIcdSuItS W DC loSI I'll tllc
shuttle.
The house passed the Pharmacy
Bill over which there was such a
ramPus and also passed ti'e bill eA-
tending the time of payment of 1894
taxes to Oct. lst.
There has been several lively de-
bates this week III the house, the one
over a Russian thistle bill authoriz-
ing townships to wire in highways
and the woman suffrage bill being
the two most prominent. The first
was laid over and it looks today as
if the other was laid out, but there
will be more music before it is buried.
The first days proceedings on the
latter bill was over the question as
to the adoption of the report of the
committee which recommended that
the bill do not pass. Russell, of
| Yankton, chairman of the committee,
opened the ball for the anti-suifra-
| pists and for over three hours the
battle waxed warm. At least one
dozen members spoke on each side
and as the lobby was crowded, there
was "A succession of Kisses, applause
and laughter at the different points
scored.
Our Representative Holmquist
made a sterling speech III favor of
the women. He spoke earnestly and
his remarks were received with close
attention. He took the stand that
the people could be trusted with the
settlement of such questions and he
was not afraid to trust to their wis
dom and that they would say in no
uncertain tones whether they wanted
the women to have the right to vote
or not. therefore he was in favor of
submitting the question,
In spite of his eloquence the re-
port was adopted by a vote of 40 to
81, but alas and alack! Gold got in
a notice of reconsideration and on
the next day the vote was reconsid-
cred by 40 to 3S but the suffragists
could not muster enough votes to
pass it, AZ being required, and the
matter was postponed until today
when the largest crowd of the sea-
son was out to see the outcome, but
they could not get the votes neces-
sary today to bring it up so like Ma
hornets cofin-it is suspended twixt
heaven and earth, is neither alive nor
dead and at present writing is apt to
STAY i'm that condition until it is too
late, tho the sutfragists are offering
to trade votes on any question, nota-
bly with the Ninnehaha delegation
who are anxious to get their divorce
bill through. Politics makes strange
bcdfellows but nothing could be
stranger than to get women suffrage

DYING WITH CHOLERA.
The Farmers Are Losing Many of Their
Hogs.


Hogs.
The farmers of the county are losing
many of their hogs by cholera, and un.
less the disease is checked the quantity
OF home raised meat next winter prom
Uses to be considerably reduced.
Judge r. F. Simmons tells The NEWS
that the disease has recently killed for
him abous 80 prospective porkers, and
that there are now only three or four
hogs ON his plantation. Mr.. A. J. Carver
is another heavey loser, his loss being
as great or greater than that of Judge
Simmons.
DR.. Salmon, the chief of the bureau of
animal industry, has just issued bulle-
tin on this subject which ought to be in
the hands of every hog keeper, and can
be obtained on application to the depart
ment OF agriculture, Washington, D. c..
DR.. Salmon says that whilst no absolutely
certain cure can be found for any disease,
and certainly not for hog cholera, vet
that, as the result of long series of ex-
periments, the following has been found
to be most etficacious formula in most
cases of this disease, and is valuable as a
preventive: lbs.

on soft food, made of bran and shipstuff
or bran and corn meal mixed in hot
water, and stir in the proper quality of
the medicine. Animals1toO sick to eat
should be drenched with the medicine
mixed in water. In drenching a hog.
never throw him on his back or rope
him and force him to take the medicine.
The chances are that If you do you will
choke him. Pull out the side of his
cheek from his teeth and thus make
pouch into which pour the medicine,
and it will run into his mouth and be
swallowed, or take an old shoe and cut
off a small part OF the toe, SO as to make
a hole through, and put this in his
mouth. He will generally commence TO
chew the shoe-then pour the medicine
into the shoe and it will find its way
slowly into the mouth and be swallowed.
