Good News for squatters.

Chamberlain. s. D., Jan. 2o.-Word
reaches here from members of the
South Dakota delegation in Washington
that though the commissioner OF the
general land office has not made the
work of completing the plats of Gregory
county special. by order, he agreed that
1t should be done at nice. and the sur
veyor generals Office at Huron u ac-
cordingly commenced the work of COM
pairing the notes of the survey in Greg
ory county preliminary to drawing the
plats. The work will be pushed as rap
idly as possible In order thai the squat
tiers who have lived on the land for near
ly six years may be enabled to make
entries of their lands. This will be well
come news to the hundreds of squat
tiers, who have exhibited great patience
during the long delay in surveying the
country. 1t is now probable that they
can make their entries at the Chamber
lain land office about May j.

An eastern paper tells of a novel
friendship which is exhibited In the salt
meadows along the H%ousatonic. It is a
friendship between a band Of wrens and
q nest OF hornets. Great numbers of
the wrens built nests in the bushes and
cattails and the hornets do not allow
man nor beast to come near them.
snipe shooters and dogs all give the
spot q wide berth, while the birds and
hornets seem to be on the best possible
visiting terms and fully understand
each other.

victory?' The populists can rightly
claim that they cast the majority
of the vote, and can with show OF
reason claim the lions share of the
"loavcs and fishes but the dem
ocrats having dictated the terms of
the fusion agreement and through it
obtained the dominating power in
the state administration and are not
disposed to yield now. Thus it is
that there is a large sized apple of

Judging from the official returns
as given by the various county
newspapers, the three constitu-
tional amendments have failed to
carry the required majority Of the
vote. Two years ago the school
amendment was lost by the same
default OF vote. The returning
board made no decision but an
OPP MON from the AttorneyG Gen
eral decided that the amendment
failed to carry. The matter was
never brought up before the courts
for test. This year, however, it
is evident that the suffragists will
not let their case rest short of a
decision from the supreme court.
This test may give decision in ia
vor of the amendments. 1t will at
least establish a PRECEDENT to guide
future legislation. These two
elections upon amendments sub
mitted to the people have estab-
lished this fact, that no anne nd
ment thus submitted, will ever car
ny majority of the wh> lie vote
cast. If that ruling is sustained
and we eyer want an amendment
carried It will have to be submitted
at special election.

Somebody said that the farmers
wanted cheap money, but the vote in
the farming districts shows plainly
that somebony was mistaken. Then
too, there was a significant expression
from the farmers n the resolution
passed at the Farmers National Con-
gress. which assembled last week at
indianapolis. An attempt was made
by some WHY politicians to carry
through free coinage resolution, but
the substitute that was passed has
quite different ring to it. 1t concurs
in the opinion that 'gold and silver
coin on just parity of value should be
equally, money Of ultimate redemp-
ton" and since the late election de-
clared for international bimetallisln.
"rhe Farmers National Congress ur-
gently requests the incoming admins
tration Of the National government to
speedily adopt all practical methods to
obtain concurrence of sufficient
number of nations to secure interna.
tional bimetallism with the unlimited
coinage of gold and silver equally as
money of ultimate redemption" This

republican party is pledged by the ST
Louis platform. This il true bimetal-
lism, "the maintaining the two met

1t is evident from interviews

call an extra session of congress
soon after his Inauguration. The
