The continuance in power In South
Dakota Of the Republican party de-
ponds to a great extent upon the
record made by the incoming legis-
lature. The voters of the state have
by unprecedented majorities pro
claimed their faith in the party and
it now rests with the Legislators to
prove that this faith is well founded
that the Republican party is the
party of, and for, the people. With
enormous working majorities in both
Senate and House, the Republicans
will be held strictly-and Justly
responsible for all acts OF commission
and omission during the next session.
They must act cautiously and wisely
useless legislation avoided, extrava-
CANT expenditures stopped, playing
to the galleries and establishinglocal
regulations at the expense of the
balance of the state should be
promptly squelched. In short, it
should be a strictly business session.
Appropriations-the rock on which
many a party in power has been
wrecked-should be liberal, but not
extravagant. "Tinhorn" economy
towards the institutions of the state
will prove just as fatal an error as
reckless extravaganza. The cutting
down of necessary appropriations to
give an appearance of economy, and
leaving a deficiency as an heirloom
for future legislatures is poor fnan-
ciering. 1t is pretty generally sur
missed that it has been the custom of
the managing boards of the various
institutions to ask for larger appro-
priat;oas than they expect to get,
or are Justly entitled to, on the
grounds hat whatever the amount
asked for it will be cut down just so
much anyhow. If this has been the
custom it should be done away with.
Let the boards ask for just what they
want, prove the need of it, and give
it to them. Special attention should
be given the question of equalization
of assessment, that the revenues Of
the state may be increased without
any additional burden of taxation.
State Auditor Reeves has made this
question the subject of exhaustive
study and the legislature will act
wisely in closely following out any
recommendations he may make.
The Senatorial contest should be
settled without leaving any bitterness
or factional results. All of the men
toned candidates are emineutly quail
fed to fill the high position to which
they aspire, but only one can win
and it is the duty of the -unsuccess-
full candidates, and their following,
to cheerfully acquiesce, for the good
OF the party, in the will of she ma
jority.
The opportunity Of the Republican
party is at hand-let prudence and
wisdom prevail and the supremacy
OF the party is ensured for years to
come.

President Mckinley may well be
proud of his Union League Club
speech. 1t contains much that any
American might well be proud of,
and the following especially appeals
to Republicans: THE Republican
party has placed upon it tremendous
responsibilities. No party could ask
for a higher expression of confidence
it is a great thing to have this conf
dence it will be greater thing to de-
serve and holdit." Who wouldn't be

The Chicago & North-W Western an
nounces the opening of their new
branch line from Belle PLANE to Mason
City & Fox Lake, Minnesota. The
length of the new line is 1876 miles,
giving the North Western system the
total mileage of 1852 miles. This makes
the Northwestern one of the greatest
railway systems in the world. We no.
tice from the Stock Exchange that the
stock of the North-W estern sells high
er than that of any other railroad. We
believe that these results have been
achieved through the good manage
ment and liberal policy adopted by
that railroad.
