both unjust and dangerous, and VIII
continue to lead to loss and crime.
Before concluding l desire to call
your attention to the fact that In the
range country west of the Missouri
river there is a vast amount or prop
erty which annually escapes taxation.
am Informed by authority, which I
am bound to believe is reliable that
there are in the n~eighborhood of two
hundred thousand head OF cattle, aside
from much other stock, grazing on the
range between the Black Hills and the
Missouri and the Nebraska and North
Dakota lines; ara sill the state audi
tors report shows that in numerous in
stances the cost of collecting the state
tax levied is greater than the total tax
collected. This Is a ridiculous and in
eXcusable condition. This stock is
much Of it owned by foreign corpor-
ations and due to the low tax levied by
the state and the failure TO properly en-
force collection, parties in tie organ
lied counties adjacent to the range
seek to have their stock assessed in the
u~nnrganlzed counties. The result is
that the organized counties lose a por.
ton Of their taxable property and are
at the same time compelled to maintain
judicial machinery for litigation which
arises in the unsettled country. The
state should either levy a tax in the I'M
organized counties equal to that levied
in the organized counties or else, where
1t is impracticable to organize new
counties, the boundary lines of the or
ganized counties should be extended to
include the ~unorganiZed territory.
How to successfully handle this
ynvnI nt,nCff0n IF T. vnfinr ia n vnnftpa
for the legislature to determine. To
formulate a bill which will equalize the
burdens of taxation, deprive the board
OF equalization Of its present power,
relieve it Of its embarrassments and
provide the treasury with money
enough, appears to be a task requiring
more than sixty days time. The nee
essity for a complete reformation Is so
urgent, however, that it cannot he too
long deferred and by way OF expediting
matters it has been suggested that the
present Legislature authorize the ap-
pointment of a commission Of experts
to prepare a suitable measure and re-
port the same to the next legislature.
1t Is hoped that in this way a law
which will meet the requirements may
be secured with very small expense.
Now in conclusion il is my fervent
desire, as it will be my constant effort
to give the state a clean, conservative,
business administration of it's affairs,
and to this end / ask the legislature to
contribute it's best efforts. The pen-
pie have reposed in us their confidence;
it is our duty by every honest mean to
prove ourselves worthy of that conf
dence, and this duty is just as incum-
bent upon the greatest as upon the
least of US. Respectfully submitted,
Andrew z. Lee.

Registration.

The demand for a registration law
applicable to every precinct in the state
seems to be quite general among the
people. There are so many arguments
in its favor that they need not be dis
cussed here.
The wholesale charges of colonial
ton" and fraud relating to the late
election, which have been made and
sent out to the press of the entire union
are none the less Injurious to the good
name of the state because ridiculously
false: and the fact that such fraud was
committed, If at all, in the interest Of
those who have made the charges fur
nishes excellent reason for so guarding
cur election laws that hereafter no
man will ever have the hardihood to
allege that South Dakota's elections
are not fairly conducted. In this con-
nection | also suggest that our present
election law be so modified, as to re-
quire the voter to designate, singly, the
name of every person for whom he
wishes to vote that the old safeguards
which have been one by one repealed
since the passage of the original law be
reinstated; that additional protection
to polling places be secured; that 1t be
made compulsory for boards Of county
commissioners to appoint n election
Judge each from the three political par
ties having the largest vote at the eiec-
ton of 1894 and hat the committees OF
each party shall have the right to select
their representative on the returning
board without petition; that all politi-
cal committees and all candidates for
political office should be required, I'M
der heavy penalty, for violation or the
law, to file a verified account or all
moneys expended by them in the cam
paign preceding the election, stating
each item separately and to whom and
for what purpose every dollar in money
was paid. The use of money and rail-
road passes in elections has become so
general, so open and so fragrant that
something must be done to create a
better public sentiment, or free insti-
tutions in this country will perish.
The practice has already grown to
such proportions that few men aspire
to public honors with any hope OF sue
cess unless they are in the confidence
or employ OF a railroad corporation or
have a large fund of their own which
they are willing to spend in the pur-
chase of an election to Office. These
are severe things to say but they are
true and the sooner the evil Is Crap
ned with and destroyed, the sooner we
shall return to the honorable methods
which were in the minds OF the franz
ers of the government. Seyerer penal
ties than now prescribed should be at

U~norganized Counties.

Complaint is made by those living in
the organized counties of the Blach
Hills that their court expenses grow
ing out Of criminal litigation from the
unorganized counties are swelled to un-
Just and unreasonable proportions, and
by these people. These u~norganized
counties are attached to the organized
counties for judicial purposes, there
fore the expense of all litigation, GRIM
inal and civil, from the u~norganized
counties must be paid from the treas
uries of the organizedcounties.
There were two cases OF homicide
from Wagner, an ~unorganized county,
tried in Butte county last year, the ex-
pense Of which was between $4,000 and
SO, 600. Witnesses were called from a
distance of $50 miles in some cases.
The trials were protracted and expen-
sive ard the bills had to be footed by
the taxpayers of Butte county where
the population is small and warrants
are already below par. There is no
provision of law for the reimburse
ment of Butte county for the expense
incurred to prosecute crimes committed
outside Of her boundary lines. 1t is an
Injustice and the Legislature should
provide for the relief of the counties
which are now burdened with this ex-
pensive litigation.

DEVELOPMENT of School Lands.

The people of Meade county COM
plain that there is a large tract Of
school land in their county, which, il
developed, could be sold for a good
price or proitably leased. The soil is
of the very best, but it is now una
valuable, for want of moisture, except
for grazing purposes.
A bill will be introduced providing
Tor the sinking of an experimental ar
tesian well on this tract In an effort
10 make the land saleable. If feasible,
there may be other places where SIM
liar experiments would result success
