The laws of this state in regard to
the organization of private corpor-
atoms are attracting a large number
of promoters, who take advantage of
the liberality allowed. During the
past two years the companies which
have Incorporated under the laws of
the state number nearly, or quite
1000 and 100000 is.asmall average
for the capitalization of each COM
pany. This fact is likely to call
attention of legislators to the laws
as they stand and may callout some
thing in the way of revision. The
present laws are very liberal, both in
regard to the requirements of organ
izations and the restrictions placed
on corporate existence, requiring but
a small fee regardless of the amount
of capital stock and requiring but
three incorporators to Incorporate a
company, only n of whom is re-
quired to be a resident of the state.
The law demands that the principal
Office of the company shall be in the
state, but branch offices are allowed
anywhere, where all the business of
the company may be transacted.
Other provisions in regard to the
Liabilities of stockholders in corpora
tions are equally as liberal. Under
these provisions a number of eastern
firms have been making agood thing
by incorporating companies under
the laws OF this state, and a local
company composed of business men
of Pierre will take up the work
having Incorporated under the name
of the National Incorporating Com
pany, to promote corporations. If
they secure their share of the bust
ness of the state they will establish
a good thing for themselves. While
the corporation business of South
Dakota cannot compare with that of
New Jersey as a revenue producer,
the fees from that source paid into
the office of the secretary of state
more than pays all the salaries and
expenses of that department of state

Senator Cushman K. Davis of
Minnesota is dead For weeks he
made a gallant struggle with the
Death Angel and from Maine to Cal
ifornia hopes were entertained and
prayers uttered that the life of the
brilliant statesman would be spared.
but it was not so ordained-the
Summons came, and the wearied soul
winged its flight to its home eternal.
His death falls upon the nation as a
calamity. Men of the character,
ability, and integrity of Senator
Davis are rare in public life and can
be but lily spared. He was not the
representative of the people of Min
nesota alone but the representative
OF the people of the entire country
the foremost type of Americans states
man-honored, esteemed aha adored
by his fellow countrymen. BY his
death, Minnesota has lost a gallant
son; the country, a noble patriot and
the administration a warm defender.
As chairman of the Senate commit
tee on foreign relations, he exercised
his great diplomatic skill in safely
steering the ship of state through
the trying times of the past few
years and much was dependent upon
him in the settlement of the many
yexed questions of the present hour.
The grief OF the American people
will follow him to his grave. Peace
be to his ashes.

campaign, was the strongest backer
that Judge Joseph B. Moore had ior
congress. The paper was bitter IN
its populistic fight. Its editor now
comes out as a Republican. In part
he gives the following reasons Tor
the change:
"We gave Bryan our support dur
ing the past fou" years because otthe
money question, but the people
of the country have almost unanl-
mously decided that Bryan was
wrong and the Republicans right on
this question. Prosperity has taken
the place of poverty, withoutth free
coinage of silver, and from present
indications will never be another
campaign with silver as even a minor
issue. The writer cannot understand
why anyone who left the Republican
party four years ago because of the
money question, should any longer
give the democrats his vote. Bryan
is too dead to talk about, and will
either support Cleveland Democracy
in 1904, or join Debs i: his Social
Democracy"

carefully in the ice trust matter. He
had long conference yesterday with
Attorney General Davies and Judge
Coyne and went over very thoroughly the
evidence brought out before Justice Gay

ment of his intention in the matter. so
far as the removal of Mayor Van Wyck
is concerned. Prior to his departure for
Rochester the governor stated that there
was nothing new in the matter and that
he did not expect report from the at
torney general for a week or ten days
in fact, not until after the Republican
national convention.
