SOUTH DAKOTA.
The Latest Returns show Tie ON
Presidential Electors.


Yankton, S. d., Nov. 6-To-night South
Dakota's vote on presidential electors is
tied, and an official count will be required
to determine the result. The republican
managers have closed their offices with
the above declaration. Any claim of the
populists that the state is for Bryan is
not justified by the returns. Corrections
and changes in three precincts not yet
heard from may give the electors to either
Bryan or Mckinley. The republican con-
gressmen and governor ran ahead Of the
electoral ticket by several hundred votes
so far as heard from, and they may have
safe majorities

VIRGINIA'S VICTORY.
The State Gives Bryan at Least 2O,-
600 Majority.

Richmond, Va, Nov. 6.-The result of
the election in this state on the national
ticket seems to be that the majority for
Bryan is 10000.
The First, Second, Fourth, Fifth Sixth
Seventh and Eighth districts return dem
ocrats to congress.
In the Tenth district the vote is very
close, the general summary, so far, giving
Yost, rep, sixteen majority, and the re-
suit is probably depending upon the de-
clsion in regard to Irregularities in one
county.
The Ninth district is certainly republi-
can.
The official vote is coming in very slow
ly from all over the state, as a great

What Politics..

Never in the history of American poll
tics have we had house so divided |
against itself as the republican house.
hold is today. no two men agreeing as to
facts or theories. The writer has been a
diligent reader of republican campaign
speeches and newspaper literature, and
so far the matter stands 98 per cent. OF
lncongruity, or total disagreement, and
2 per cent. OF doubtful consistency, as
the summing up of republican arguments.
What we mean by incongruity is that
one man is stating that our silver dollars
are redeemable in gold. while another in
sists that they are standard money, need
ing and having no redemption. One man
in agreement with all standard diction-
aries, claims that in the United States,
cent is the one hundredth part Of dollar;
another that it is the f1ftieth part OF a
dollar; or by the converse of this, that
dollar contains fifty cents and one hun
dred cents according to what dollar is
made Of. In the line of theories. one
man claims that the farmer, under free
coinage of gold and silver, will be paid
for his products, and the laborer for his
hire, in fifty cent dollars, while these
same dollars in the hands Of the mine
owners, will be worth one hundred cents
still another tells the people that they
will have no money value at all, because
the government will not be back OF them,
making them legal tender. Again one
man tells his listeners, or readers, rs the
case may be, that the times are good, and
have been growing better since 1878. and
another. that times are awful hard and
people are depressed because of the De-
mocratic tariff, and still another, that it
is lack Of confidence brought about b,
the silver agitation. One man tells US
that there is plentiful supply OF money
in circulation among the people, another.
that the banks have control OF the money
among the people, unless the ''sllver
craze" subsidies. And SO it goes on all
over the country. Republican speakers
differiog with republican speakers, writ
ers with writer's on every fact and Theory.
In the line Of buncombe, there is no more
agreement. Men all over the country are
claiming that the main issue is tariff,
while Mr.. Hanna tells Mckinley that the
money question IS the only issue. Ora
tors by the hundred. are proclaiming that
there is no fear that Bryan will be elect
ed, while others are urging that such
fears are the cause of all the disturbance
of business. Mouthlng gold bugs are
proclaimiag that the prospects of a re-
publican victory are equivalent to dead
certainty, and yet Bourke Cochran said
in his New York speech that business
was terribly disturbed by questions in-
volved in the present campaign, while
Mr.. Harrison said in his blow out in that
city, that prospects of Republican success
never disturbs business anywhere. Out
of all this chaotic balderdash of Republi-
can orators and writer's, only one point is
established and that by Mr.. Harrison.
viz; that the prospects of republican sue
cess must be slim, as business is GER
tainly disturbed.

CONSTABLES' FEES
The natter Will Be Passed Upon by the
Supreme Court

Constable Harry Johnston has filed
his notice Of appeal in the suit brought
against the county of Los Angeles for
fees to the amount of over $400 over and
m effort is being made to have the
question passed upon by the Supreme
court at it's session in this city during
the coming week. While this suit has
been brought by Constable Johnston as
q matter of fact every constable in the
county is interested, and quite num-
ber have contributed to a fund for hav-
ing the questions in dispute settled by
the courts. AS has been stated, the
law fixes the limit that constableS may
receive for criminal business at $1,000
per annum, and no matter how much
work of a criminal character that is
performed, no charge can be made.
This law was made necessary by the
extortionate fees charged under the
old law, the compensation of constabIes
and magistrates often far exceeding
that of the superior judges, and in at
least one instance almost equaling that
Of the sheriff. Further, under the old
regime so many abuses were practised
that some sort of check had to be de-
vised, not only to stop the heavy drain
on the treasury, but for the protection
of citizens from arrest, in many cases,
on fictitious charges. When the new
law went into effect there was a very
'KlSOIOQS pIOleSL Oh IIle part OF the OIL
GERS. and the supervisors. in addition
to allowing $1,000 per annum, paid for
one of the deputies. When Johnston
brought suit the supervisors cut off his
deputy. and he has since been running
his office at his own expense. He has
only drawn about $40 from the county
for over a year. and there is now due
him. even under the $1,000 law, some
thing like s1100. Consequently he is
much interested in the early settlement
of the question. His attorneys are con-
11dent that they will win the case be-
fore the supreme court. 1t was sum-
marily disposed of by Judge York, who
sustained the demurrer to the corn
plant and taxed the costs on the de-
PENDANTS. Should the contention of
Johnston be sustained. it will add
greatly to the expenses of the county.
There are forty-eight constables in
the county, and many of them can
double the compensation allowed by
