SOUTH DAKOTA SURE ToR MKINLEY
Uttcrnnccs of Pcttigrcw Have Dis
rusIch nrNnn's EOIIOMers,

One of the visitors at the republican head
quarters yesterday morning was j. II.
Scrivens, secretary OF the republican state
central committee of South Dakota. Mr.
scrvens says that South Dakota is now just
as sure for Mckinley as is New York
For a while the influence of Senator
Pettigrew seemed to draw largely from the
republican ranks" said Mr.. Scrlvens "but
as the campaign progressed the dcserters
began to come back and now the situation
justihGs the positive confidence that the
state will go republican by a decisive ma
jorty. One reason which is cited by Mr.
SCriyens for the decline Of Pettigrew is the
fact that while he started out as a repub-
liCan, except on the money issue, he has
now become one of the most rabid populists
In the state. He goes to an extent in hiG
calamity rawlings that exceeds the most
radical utterances OF the old-time popu-
lists. He swallows the entire populist
doctrine, free trade and ALL and the repub-
licans who allowed themselves to be in
fuenCed by him in the beginning now
realize that they, were following a false
god.
Hon. William h. Sterling, general attor-
ney of the Elkhorn road, returned yesterday
morning from ten days visit In South
Dakota, whore he has an extensive ac-
quaintance, having resided there for a num-
Der of years He says that after careful
inspection OF the political situation there he
has concluded that there can be no reason
able doubt about sound money victory
in that state. He saw evidences of McKin-
leys strength all along the line. He re-
ports that Bryan was greeted by large
crowds at both Sioux Falls and Huron, but
adds that large proportion Of the pOpo-
cratic candidates auditors were wearing
Mckinley badges. At Huron the free silver
committee had distributed white badges
with Bryans picture thereon. The repub-
lican committee Immediately had several
hundred gOld-colored badges, bearing Nc
| Kinley's picture, struck off and distributed
When the boy orator arose to speak he
looked upon a perfect sea of gold badges
the republicans having taken the front seats

Location of the Exposition.

OMAHA, Oct. 1O.-To the Editor OF Tho
Bee: Every day makes 1t more apparent
that to secure a solid, broad-minded, busi-
ness mems directory for the exposition 1t Is
absolutely imperative that the question OF
location shall be divorced from the selection
of directors. This becomes an impossibility
when II is known that one of the first duties
of the new directors Is to choose fsite.
There is a strong fight being made in favor
of three different sites and large number
of stockholders Will vote for no candidate
for the directory not known to be pledged to
the voters choice. Business qualifications,
If considered at all, are but secondary. Such
being the state of affairs, yellow dog would
stand better show to get on the board than
a capable man not In sympathy with a ma
jority OF the stockholders on the location
This matter is easy Of solution. II is the
inevitable consequence OF the charter direc-
tors falling to provide for the stockholders
to settle this question by their ballot, moth
ing being easier than to vote on the site
whom voting for directors There is also a
stronger reason for the justice OF this plan
in the right of all investors in an enterprise
to have a say where their money shall be
risked for the reason that some locations
would mean failure, while a more accessible
site might insure success
Now, | wish to attribute honest motives
to all that has been done so far, but any
observer can not but look with suspicion on
any refusal by the board of directors of the
While the board may nave thought that tho
public was not competent to deal with this
question | venture to say that every share
subscribed will vote for the location mos
likely to return a dividend and there will
be less opportunity for ring to work for
the benefit of a few interested ones who get
on the inside.
The suspicion Is frequently and openly
avowcd that the present board has made uI
slate and will control the complexion
of the new board by fair means or other.
wise and this suspicion will grow until the
board takes such action as will silence 1t
| The threat is made by many stOckholder:
| that If they are tricked In this matter then
| first assessment OF 8 per cent will be the
| last which they will pay.
| The American citizen wants fair play, ar
| honest expression OF the majority, and ther
he always gracefully abdes by the de
cision. Any questionable move at this time
| would raise such storm that the whole
| enterprise will be endangered by the very
ones who, If treated by fair means. not
withstanding their disappointment, would
| stand nobly by any enterprise for the good
| of our city.
Let us locate this exposition where a

| there will be 10 kick coming" and moth
| ing will stand in the way of electing a board
OF capable managers for a directory

Taking the average OF all the sales there was
a slight gain over yesterday, making this the
high day OF the week, and the highest OF any
day since the middle OF May.
The hog market OF the past week has been
in very satisfactory condition, viewed from
a sellers standpoint. The demand has been
large and all arrivals have met with ready
sale, the competition between buyers keeping
prices up TO a high point compared with
other markets. The week opened with slight

CArrLE-The receipts of cattle today
numbered I12 head as against 2.3lO yestcr-
day and 1913 on Saturday of last week. 1t
was a good, big run for the last day of
the week. but in spite of that and the
additional fact that purchases would in
many cases have to be carried over until
next week, the market as "a whole was I'm
pretty fair condition.
Beef steers sold In abo;s The same notch
as yesterday though the feeling was hardly
so strong, and in some cases common kinds
may have sold a little easier. The de-
mand, however, was active, and the yards
were cleared I'm good season.
Cows and hcifers also sold In about the
same notch as yesterday, there being no
quotable change I'm the market.
In the feeder division the situation was
not quite so favorable to the selling inter-
ests and values generally were about l0c
lower The weather was wet and cold
which made the cattle look their worst and
that, together with the fact that II was
the last day of the week, helped to bring
about the decline. Another reason for the
break was the high prices that feeders
have commanded this week. In spite of
the bear influences the demand was good
and the buyers all seemed to want cattle,
all of the early arrivals changing hands in
good season.
The cattle market of the past week has
been all that any seller could ask for. The
and grades beef cattle as well az stockers
and feeders. In fact, the demand has been
so large, while the receipts have been only
moderate, that the market has been grad
ualy pushed upward. the trade each day
being reported strong. This upward move
mcnt has occurred Ia the face OF a down
ward tendency at most other markets and
IL IL safe to say that on most days of the
week this has been the highest market I'm
the country. Packers complain that they
are unable to secure enough fat cattle to
meet The demand of their trade and "A good
many have been shipped in from other
markets to make up the deficiency. The
great quantity of feed In the country has
created heavy demand for feeders and all
