REAL PANAMA HATS.
Made In Ecuador snd Bring from $40
to $3.50, According to Their
Fineness

The so-called Panama hat, so ex-
tensively in vogue, is not the product
of Panama at all, or even of the state
of Colombia, but is manufactured in
the neighboring republic of Ecuador
in enormous quantities and of every
variety of shape, texture and quality.
and sold under the general name of
Guayaquil hats throughout Mexico.
Central America and South America,
at prices varying from so cents up
ward. says a New York News letter.
The hat, however, that is known to
the wealthiest classes of those coun-
tries as the Panama hat is quite diff
ferent affair, a yeritable ARTICLE de
luxe selling at prices varying from
$50 to $3.50, according to their fine
ness. They are worn indifferently by
either sex, without ribbon or other
adornment, as they come from the In
dian makers hands, without profana-
ton of starch, and are the more high
4y priced from the fact that their
closely woven texture not only REM
ders them impervious to the suns
rays, but likewise waterproof. which
last quality is highly esteemed where
il is deemed expedient to keep the
head dry during the constant eaua-
torial showers.

The Best Breed Of Cattle.

A Jones county, Iowa, correspondent
of the Homestead asks which of the
beef breeds of cattle we believe offers
the best inducements to anyone who
wishes to establish a fairly good herd
of breeding cattle, and wishes to know
if we think the breeding of Short.
horns will be overdone by growing a
supply for which there will not be q
profitable demand.
AS we have often stated before, there
ia no best breed of cattle, nor will there
be any over production Of beef cattle
of any kind for many years so long as
the laboring classes are employed at
present wages. 1t is not overproduct-
ion but underconsumption that ruins
markets. Speculation in cattle, as in
anything else, some times pushes
the price up above the normal, but this
in turn will regulate itself.
Replying to the first question, we
would say the breed of cattle which a
man should select will depend on ever
varying circumstances and conditions.
The man who lives in a district given
over to dairying and can give his cat
tie good treatment in the way of shell
ter will probably find the Short-horns
and Red Polls best adapted to his pur
pose, while the farmer who is growing
them simply for beef and fancies either
the Herefords, aberdeen Angus, Gallo
ways, or Short horns Of the beef type
will not be disappointed. 1t is not sc
much a matter of breed as adoption tc
special conditions that should deter
mine what breed man should select.

Political Outlook.

A Huron correspondent, Of the Sioux
Falls Press, reviews the political field
and looks over the political aspirants
and comes to the conclusion that it will
be quiet state convention, and figures
out the candidates for the ticket, plac-
ing Judge Campbell as possible cand-
idate. The correspondent draws this
picture: .... -. '@.
The talk of Judge Campbell of Aber-
deem for congress. in place of Q. H..
Burke, meets with favor In central Da-
kota, and the impression is pregnant,
that the Aberdeen jurist would win out
should he enter the field against Mr..
Burke.
There will be no opposition to the re-
turn of Congressman Martin.
Governor Herreid will be re-nomin-
ated and reelected. Luck is his. This
is not saying that Governor Herreid's
position in life is attributable to luck.
On the contrary he has been a hard
worker an intelligent worker. But
luck, or fate, whatever it may be
called, has certainly been with him Of
late. ...3
The governor will name the nominee
for attorney general. This, with the
presumption that the man whom he
will shortly appoint to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of John L. Pyle is
reasonably acceptable 10 the party. 1t
is hardly to be expected that an ap-
pointee who has had chance to serve
but nine months, will be turned down
at thestate convention, ..
Secretary of State Berg will have no
opposition and will slide into his sec.
Ond term like piston rod into a cylin-
der.
Geo. L. Almund, of Clear Lake,
Deuel. county, is likely candidate for
commissioner of school and public
lands.
The state auditor plum will fall into
the basket of J. F. Halliday, more fa-
miliarly known as "Dick" Halliday, of
Iroquois, publisher of the "Chief,"
postmaster. etc., Of Iroquois.
1. A. Munroe, of Clark county, is
also candidate for state auditor.
Brown county will ask a place on the
state ticket in the candidacy of G. B.
Collins, of Groton, for treasurer.
For superintendent of schools, Geo
W. Nash, of Yankton college, will
have no opposition; at least it looks
that way now. The professor is fully
competent, was raised from childhood
in this slaLe, now occupies an import
ant position in educational circles and
would grace the Office with honor to
himself. to Yankton college, and to
bis old Lincoln county home.
D H Smith, of Hand county, is an
nounced by the Miller Press as a candi-
date for the position of railroad COM
missioner from this district.
s. H. Elrod, of Clark county, is
prominently mentioned for railroad
commissioner.

Good Blood From the Dollars
And Cents Standpoint.

't: EE. --7 1.as7 MI fsi8s-. : ss
The question is mooted one wheth.
or improved animals are able to con-
vert any greater percentage Of the food
eaten into marketable products, than
can those Of the. unimproved order;
However, on general principles our OBJ.
jec.ions to the scrub are not based on
this wasteful powers Of assimilation
so much az on the useless character Of
the products into which his food is
transformed. Even though the diges-
tive capacity Of the scrub were one
half greater than the full blood, we
doubt if there would be any reasonable
excuse for his perpetuation. Good
blood in the horse stands for higher
degree of usefulness whether employed
for draft purposes or speed; in the beef
animal, more good meat per- pound OF
food consumed; while in the sheep 1t
may mean more and better wool and
mutton. But we find few who are ad-
vocating the merits of the scrub ami
NAL although like the poor we, expect
to have them with us always.
To the average man who has had
little to do with improved stock there
is little to do with high sale averages
which have been so common during
the past few years. To him the $500 or
81, 900 average is of little interest for he
knows that back of these prices are to
be found men who are versed in the
principles of feeding and breeding, a
knowledge which he can not hope to
possess. While it is not possible for
all stockmen to touch the topmost
round, yet all can emulate those who
do not touch it. Perfection in any
thing is only attained by degrees, and
in the stock business every degree has
a money value. We have in mind
man who was eminently successful in
the breeding of beef cattle, that is,
from financial standpoint. AS side
issue he rails ed a few draft horses.
His foundation stock were of good
breeding and possessed individual
merit. From small beginning Of
three or four animals the number in
creased to thirty head in few years at
which time they were offered at public
auction bringing an average of over
$3.50 per head. As the owner after
said their would have been profit in it
for him if the average had been 500
per head as they had never eaten any
high price food.
The above incident is given because
it shows what may be accomplished
even without any expert knowledge.
Of course good judgment was used
both in breeding and feeding, but we
think little better than could be found
among hundreds of our farmers who
are now engaged in feeding scrubs.
Therefore we would say make start
with few good females, use good
sire even if you don't own him; never
patronize the scurvy grade because he's
cheap, use ordinarily good judgment
in feedsng, and we will vouch for the
statement that the market will pay a
high premium for the effort.-Iowa

YANKToN, April 4, 1862

The wheels OF Legislation nave 8ot
fairly in motion. notice by the daily
reading of bills that the two branches
have reached as high as House File 4S,
and Council File A; making ninety.two
bills, resolutions and memorials pre-
sented within the last three weeks.
The members are earnestly at work,
and everything bids fair for a useful
session. The most important of the
local bills Of the territory have been
disposed of, and the judiciary com.
mittee are at work on civil and Grim
inal code, which will be reported in the
course of ten days. ..r.
Much of the time of the lower house,
since my last letter, has been consumed
in discussing, figuring, sparring and
voting on the capitol bill, which finally
passed on the 9Th inst, locating the
permanent seat of government at Yank.
ton.
Excitement ran to 4 high pitch dur
ing few days on the last stages of the
bill. A little blood was shed, much
whiskey drank, few eyes blacked, re-
volvers drawn, and some running done.
A few kept sober, stood at the wheel,
cleared the shoals, and steered the bill
through the darkness. ....~
It appears that the speaker betrayed
his friends on this bill, and broke from
their ranks. after they had raised him
to the speakership of the house and had
received from him pledge in wiring
on this particular measure when the
council bill arose in the house he de-
liberately went from his chair to the
floor and moved to amend the bill by
stricking out the word ''Yankton' and
insert "Bonhomme;" which being lost.
he again moved to strick out 'Yankton"
and insert "Vermillion;" the vote being
a tie, he gave the casting vote in the
affirmative, thus violating his pledge
and playing traitor to his friends for
the benefit of others.
The bill then went to the council and
was returned to The house in the short
space Of twenty-five minutes, with the
non n.concurrence Of the council to the
house amendment A member of the
house, who, as it seems, had under.
ground communication with the coun-
Gil, and had been watching for the bill,
now cody arose and moved that the
house recede from its amendment and
concure with the council, which was
carried, and the capitol located at
Yankton.
1 hear less complaint of late among
members, with regard to the printing
of laws, etc, although perceive they
have no published journals as yet
Thus far the council has performed
the bulk of labor of both houses.
Mr., Gregory arrived here today and
will take his seat in the council to-
morrow. He is an honor and an orna-
ment to that body.
The town of Yanklon begins to prick
up her ears, and feels city like. A bill
has passed the house locating the
capitol at Yankton, the penitentiary at
Bonhomme, and the university at Yer
million.
The apportionment bills have passed
the house, raising the representation OF
the territory to thirteen councilmen
and twenty. three representatives.
To be Continued.

| CLEAN ADMINISTRATION.
That is All Right, But What is
Wanted is Cleaner City.

This article is written before the
result of the election today is known.
At this time we have but little
idea how the election will be decided,
but it looks to a man up tree that
Mayor Rich will go in with whoop.
Let this be as it may, but what the
Progress desires to impress upon the
next administration, whether Mr..
Rich or Mr.. Hightower is at the
head, is the fact that a clean admin
istration is all right, but what the
people really want is a system of bet
ter streets. For long time the ad-
ministration has been dilly -dallying
along with fair promises, but every
morning in the week the streets would
really show up in a worse condition
than the day before, until now Hat
tiesbnrg has the reputation of having
the nastiest, the dirtiest, the most
dangerous streets of any city in the
south of the same large population.
There should be an organized sy 4.
tematic plan for working the sire Its
that would make them stay worked,
and the bridges should be put down
SO they would not be washed away bv
every big dew. 1t is very large
piece of foolishness to think that the
clay soil of this town will make good
streets. This soil would be all right
If manufactured into vitrified brick
and the streets paved with it, but in
its soft state, still softer when it
rains, it is not fit for anything
except to hold the earth together.
The first thing the new administra-
ton should do is to clean up the trash
in the city. This does not mean poor
white trash or the lousy niger trash,
but those goods boxes, old barrels,
oyster cans, pieces Of planks and
boards, brickbats previously used for
chunking cows away from the stores.
old socks and inside pants, dead rats,
cats and defeated can 1idates and other
such filthy trash and decayed matter
which has become a source of menace
to public health and to the discomfort
of the people generally. 1t is just as
easy to keep the city clean as it is to
keep ones house clean, but the work
must be gone at in Il systematic way
and every man made to perform his
part so far as the sanitary laws direct
There is no use TO have laws if
they are not enforced. A law that
is not enforced is like a disease that
effects other parts of the body if it is
not removed at once. The law not
enforced effects that one which is en-
forced, weakening it and making it
become applicable with force as the
two exists together i'll the same COM
munity.
The next administration III Hatties-
burg should give his message to the
people with this one point in view
The city should be cleaned up or Ahe
administration should be cleaned out

THE BUILDING BOOM.
Work on All the Buildings Progress
Well-The Masonic Building.

Work has resumed on all of the
buildings in the city the past few
days and good progress has been
made Some of the material for both
the Citizens Bank and the First
National Bank arrived several days
ago and work up to this morning,
when it began to rain, had prog
Tessed satisfactorily. The Carter
three story building is reaching up to
the third story and with favorable
weather will strike the skies soon.
This will be one of the finest build
ings in. the city. All three of these
buildings have stone fronts-in fact
nearly all the buildings being built in
the city and those which will follow
will have stone fronts. The contract
has been let for the erection of the
Masonic lodge with large storeroom
on the first floor. The Dixie Marble
Company, the Progress understands,
has the contract for the stone work
while Contractor Sheppard has the
conotract for putting up the entire
building.
There are, other buildings in pros
pect, but the projectors are not yet
ready to make their plans public.
