WHAT'S THE MATTER?

A Very Peculiar Discrepancy In the Vote
of the State. It may be Governor
Phillips Yet.
The Sioux Falls Argus-Leader has
received and compiled the election re-
turns from every county in the state
excepting the unorganized counties At
tatched to Butte, and the thinly popu-
lated counties of Delano, Scobey and
Ziebach. These missing counties cast
235 in 1896. This year they are known
to have given considerable majority
for the entire republican ticket, al
though the official figures have not
been obtained. Butte and the coun-
ties attached alone, according to un-
official reports, gave Phillips a majority
Of 81. "But leaving those counties out
of the calculation" says the Argus
Leader, i've find that Mr.. Gamble re-
ceived in the state 1886 while Mr.. Kel-
ley received 80 2,474, giving MIR. Gamble
majority of 6,372.
Mr.. Burke received 36,3Ol in these
counties, and Mr.. Knowles 81, ,252, leav-
ing Mr.. Burke a majority Of 4,04s.
"In the same counties Mr.. Lee re.
ceived 81, ,133 while 35,964 were cast for
Mr.. Phillips,giving Mr.. Lee an apparent
majority of 169, with the above named
counties to hear from.
"Taking merely the majorities one
would get the idea that Mr.. Phillips
ran from $500 to 1900 behind his ticket
while Mr.. Lee ran an equal amount
ahead of his. This is not the case. We
find on comparison that Mr.. Phillips
ran only 1904 behind Mr.. Gamble, yet
Candles majority is 6,372; he ran 741
ahead of Burke, yet Burke's majority
Is 4,O4s. He ran LIS behind Kean, yet
Kean's majority 8, ,596; ], Ill behind Rod
die, but Roddle's majority is 4,67O; l.
O65 behind Reeves, but Reeves major
ity is 3,693; 1,496 behind Schamber, but
Schamter's majority is 4,O72; 1,763 be-
hind Pyle, while Pyle's majority is H.
$40; 1881 behind Eastman, while East
mans majority is 4,316: 1,760 behind
Collins, while Collins majority is 6, Ill;
and 667 behind Smith, while Smiths
majority is 3,571:
Summarizing these figures we find
that the average majority on the re-
publican ticket is 4,2S3, and that Phil.
lips ran on the average 1,22S behind
the ticket. We would naturally expect
to find his majority then 3,O55, tut on
the face of the returns Mr.. Phillips
appears to be beaten by 1863 votes. But
there is something most peculiar in the
vote for governor, q situation which
gives rise to large suspicion touching
the regu larity of the count. While we
know that two or three thousand men
did not vote at all for governor, we find
the aggregate vote for governor run
ming at the very least 1,148 ahead oi
the highest aggregate vote for the next
highest Office. There are only two pos
sible explanations for this, one that full.
ly 1000 men voted for governor and NO
one else, the other that 800 populists
marked their ballots three times for
Mr.. Lee, and that populist judges hav
ing charge of the election boards
counted these votes three times"
The vote in the stat 9 on the amend
ments was as follows: Woman suf
frage, yes 19,2O1, no 22,22s3; dispensary
yes 81, ,743, no 1885; initiative and ref
erendum, yes 23,25s, no 16,202.

Chelsea, l. T. Feb. 16.-The
deal has been consumated for
the removal of the Choctaw In
dians to Mexico. according to
A. Hulit. of Topeka. Kan. who
is agent for a land company
making the deal.
The Indians have purchased
something like 100000 acres.
1t is not known what they will
do with their lands in the Ter
ritory, or just how soon they
will migrate.
There are about 1900 Choc-
taw Indians. They own 6,6SS,
600 acres of land in the Terri
tory and they have trust funds
of ST., ,185, 900. The Choctaws
have a rude tribal government
ON the same plan of other
tribes. Green McCurtain, a
progressive half-blood, is Gov
ernor. The Choctaws as a rule
are very progressive people but
they like their form of govern
ment, and do not like to give up
any of their priviledges. The
reason they assign for immigrat-
ing to Mexico, is that it is more
healthful and congenial to the
Indians taste.

DE LONE Talks.

New York, Feb. 16.-"The
Spanish ministry and the Span
ish people have been greatly
misunderstood in this country, F"
said Senior De LONE, the form
er Spanish minister, this morn
ing. "They desire peace; they
all want peace with America
and Americans, not only from
motives of policy, but because
they love America.
Il am forced to say now, bv
this terrible affair, what |
should have been precluded
from saying before. There is
no country in the world that /
love as / do America. | love
the country and the people. 1t
is with the keenest regret that |
take my leave as the result of
this unfortunate incident. In
my country nearly all promi-
nent Spaniards and men of in
fiuence share my views in re-
gard to America.
Spain cannot afford to have
a war with the United States.
If only from motives of policy,
they are determined not to have
any war. There Gao be no war
between this country and
Spain. Such a thing is out of
the question.
IF the Maine has blown up
in Havana harbor it is the re-
suit of an accident. That is
absolutely certain. There will
be no war"

The exciting incidents OF the ex-
plo6iou on the battleship Maine have
melted great interest in the matter of
explosives, particularly with respect to
gun cotton, which formed a material
portion OF the Maine's supply of de-
structiye forces. Torpedoes are loaded
with gun cotton. which is ordinary
cottnn tibrs soaked with nitric acid.
When gun cotton lie wet, il is non ex-
plosive except under certain peculiar
conditions Dry gun cottun is very OK
plOsiye, and, wet gun-cotton will ON
plode if the dry is placed with il and
subjected to shock or an electric cur
rent or fire from fuse. It. is the habit
on men -of.war TO keep the bulk of gun
cotton saturated with water and small
quantity Of dry for printing purposes
locked up in the cabin or at some safe
place where IL will not be subject to
contact and can easily be inspected. 1t
Ia usually stored in red steal box
suspended to the wall or TO one of the
ribs of the ship. In another red hox at
a distance from all other explosives are
kept the frsss for Che tUrpedoes, which
are made OF tho illuminate of mercury.
These also are inspected every day and
are never removed except in case of
action or target practice,
