The National Home Bill Passed the
Senate Last Monday.
The senate maintained its former
record on the national sanitarum (sol-
diers home) bill last Monday, when it
passed Senator Pettigrew's bill without
OPPOSITION. The bill is similar to the
csAes heretofore passed, which have
been printed by the STAR SO many
times that all are familiar with the
provisions. 1t appropiates s150,OOO for
the construction of the building and
$4,000 for transportation of inmates.
1t also provides, as before, that Hot
Springs shall donate the site and per-
petual lease of the spring water.
1t is expected that the House bill
will come up for action next Monday.
1t has already been reported favor
ably by the Military committee. The
House has always heretofore opposed
the measure, but it is hoped Congress.
men Gamble and Burke are going to
be able to secure its passage this time.

COMING CONGRESSMAN.

byAcclamatian at Sioux Falls

Hon. e. w. Martin the Unanimous Choice
of the Black Hills-Will he Nominated
by yAcclamation at Sioux Falls.
Hon. E. w. Martin will be nominal.
ed one of the congressman from South
Dakota at the state convention to be
held at Sioux Falls, May 23rd, having
overwhelmingly defeated Judge Gideon
Moody in the Black Hills, who sought
to be candidate for U. s. senate.
The short, clean, brilliant and success
full campaign conductad by Mr.. Martin,
is of itself ample endorsement of his
popularity and his ability. Though
already we'll known in the Black Hills
brief sketch of his life will not at
this time be out of place. Everyone
will enjoy knowing more about the life
of the coming man in the politics of
our state:
Eben w. Martin was born in Jack.
son county, Iowa, April IL, 1855. His
ancestry has been American fo. 24O
years; originally English, Irish and
Scotch. He is member of the Sons
of American Revolution and of the
Iowa Commandary of Loyal Legion
this latter by inheritance from his
father, now deceased. Capt. James w.
Martin, of the Twenty-fourth Iowa
Vol. MIR. Martin graduated from
Cornell college, Mt. Vernon, Ia, in
1879 and three years later received
the degree of A. M. from his alma
mater. He attend the law school of
the University of Michigan in 1879 and
1880. Was admitted to the bar in
Clinton, Iowa, in March, 1880, and
came to Deadwood S. ID. in August,
1880, from which time he has practiced
law continuously, and with marked
degree of success. He was member
of the territorial legislature of Dakota
in 1SS4-5, and served for several years
Hot Springs weekly star. (Hot Springs, S.D.) 1892-1917, 1900-05-04

as member of the board of trustees
of the State Normal School at Spear
fish. lie is now, and has been for
several years, president Of the board of
education of Deadwood, and has been
a member OF the board of trustees
of Black Hills college since that insti-
tuition was chartered. He has never
sought office of any kind, but on the
contrary has before now refused to be
candidate for congress. Mr.. Martin
made the leading argument before the
legislature in 1891 in behalf of the
Lawrence county republican legislators
who were afterwards unseated by
partisan vote. That act was one of
the features of the memorable contest
in behalf of the reelection of Judge
Moody as u. S.. senator. Mr.. Martin
was at that time suggested as CON-
promise candidate by some of the
leading republican members, and was
assured sufficient support to elect him
but he refused to become candidate
while Mr.. Moody remaineda a candidate.
In 1896 Mr.. Martin took the stump
for the republican ticket and made
some of the most effective speeches
i'll the state during that campaign.
He is man ofgreat energy, and though
conservative, enters into all work he
undertakes with great earnestness
and enthusiasm. He is generally con-
ceded to be one of the best lawyers in
South Dakota.

A special effort is being made this

of county, city and township assessors,
