WHEN WAR IS ENDED
Russia Unwilling to Join
Second Hague Conference.
COUNT CASSINI REPLIED VERBALLY
Cars Ambassador Regretted Neces-
sity of This POstponement - Our
Government Will Rest on Its
Oars For the Present.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-Russia is
unwilling to join the powers in a sec
ond peace conference at The Hague
until her war with Japan is ended.
The Russian reply to Secretary
Hays circular note to the powers in
viting them in the name of the presl-
dent to reassemble i'll conference at
The Hague ito complete the postponed
work of the first conference was de-
livered verbally to Secretary Hay yes
terday afternoon by Count Cassini, the
Russian ambassador. The ambassador
IA requested by his government to
say that Russia heartily accepted i'll
principle the invitation to d second con-
ference at The Hague and gladly asso-
ciated herself with the American gov
eminent in it's effort to complete the
mission of the first great assembly
convened under the leadership of the
Russian emperor. The ambassador was
further requested to say that while the
Russian government very sincerely
er the moment opportune for the COLI
vening of such a conference, and it
therefore must withhold its formal ne
ceptance of the invitation until the war
in the far east was at an end.
In diplomatic circles the news of
Russia's conditional reply caused some
surprise. The caution which character
lied even the consideration of the in
vitation ut st. Petersburg made sew
eral ambassadors here doubtful about
the favorable reception of the Ameri-
can note. This doubt has been removed.
however, by the friendly terms in
which the reply was couched.
For the present ID is probable the
American government will rest on its
oars. When the far eastern war ell
ters on its final stage this government
will be prepared to follow up its in
vitation. +
In the meantime should Russia's at
titude change she will find the Ameri-
can governmentready to lead the pow
ers Immediately to The Hague for their
second conference.

GOSSIP OF STATE H,
AFFAIRS AT TRENTON.
DalrympIe Withdraws as Candidate
for Leader-The House
Official Family.

Trenton, Dec. 1:-George II. Dalrymple
the Passaic Assembiyman, who thought
that his long service in the Legislature
and the co~nsideratf6bS due his county
entitled him -tNatle leadership of the
House, fuesaAM HRsS an adlit onal
demonstration of his good, hard sense.
by announcing that he was out of the
race. <&DSAHta
He did not, however, acknowledge
openly that he agreed that Mr.. Duffield,
Of Essex, had the number Of voters
requisite to give hiiiS the cducus nomina-
ton, but said that none of the State
leaders, was fagogaPle to'his candidacy,
and without some Of them with him
there was no use ofemakihR the fight.
He expressed the opinion, however, that
he could nave won ifionly'on one or two of
the leaders, had seen fit to- stand for
him. gHX0a AA
This withdrawal of Mrs~ Dalrymple
left che field free for Mr.. -Duffied and
took from the weekly gathering, of the
statesmen the little interest IN the orga-
~nization which remains.
For the first time since the election
there was some interest in the minor
positions. This was due to a few mild
contests which appeared on the surface.
One Of these was the appearance OF form
er Assemblyman Somers. The Champion,
Of Monmouth, who announced himself as
a wQ1iGtsAss< the assistant CLERK o f-the
Housey position which was, occupied
last win@r by Editor Upton S.. .Jeffreys,
Of Camden. Mr.. Jeffrsys is "A candidate
for the position again this season and it
has been taken for granted that ne was to
be reelected without any opposition.
Mr.. Champion had only one term in the
Legislature and that was in the House Of
1902. He thinks that he is entitled to
more recognition from his party and in
the last two sessions has been a candidate
for one of thedSldkships ei-the Assembly.
Up to this time has not met with much
success, land as far as appearances went
today he is likefyStbjbe again doomed to
disappointment.
Something like q contest has cropped
III over the place Of assistant supervisor
of bills, which was held last session by
Edward e. McClintoek, of Essex, who
was recently appointed an inspector of
the labor department.. 1t was said that
South Jersey would claim the place, but
Assemblyman Abraham Kaiser repudi-
ates the claim and considers the position
his to give. At. any rate he has lin
formed the executive committee of the
Sixth Ward of Newark, that he would
be pleased t0u,havs9yhe k%tonnmittee name
a man for tAe opsAe. There are three
candidates for the position, but the know
ing ones say that If Essex get the place it
will probably GO to Alderman Henry b.
Snyder.
There was a rumor about the corridor
that George A. Grover, of Essex, the SUI
pervisor Of bills of the House, might be
deposed. The foundation for this was the
report that South Jersey claimed the Of
flee of Journal clerk filled last session
by Robert s.. Terhune. of Newark, and,
as Mr.. Grover has been in office longer
than Mr.. Terhune has, he would have
to give place to the latter, who would be
named for supervisor of bills.

Resolved, That the Prohibition

that they are in politics for the

Resolved, That the theory of the

enforcing prohibitory- laws until
they are furnished with sworn COM
plants, is opposed to and destruc-
tive of good government, and we
declare it to be the purpose of the
Prohibition party, when it is plac-

spy and informer, in order to far
nish county officers with evidence.

Homestead Voters
The Law Pertaining to Their Rights. in
South Dakota

Some question has arisen MS to
the rights of recent homestcadcrs
to vote in South Dakota. For the
benefit of election officers and 9TH
ers, the following has been pre-
pared:
Under the constitution there are
two general classes of voters in
South Dakota
First, citizens of the United
States; and
Second, persons of foreign birth
who have declared their intention
to become citizens.
Upon each of these there are
certain limitations as to sex, age,
residence, etc. For the purpose
of this article, consideration will
be confined to those who already
are citizens of the United States.
The constitutional provision as
to these are that they must meet
the following requirements:
every male person resident of
this state, who shall be of the age
of twentyone years and upwards,
not otherwise disqualified, who
shall have resided in the United
States one year, in the state six
months, in the county thirty days,
and in the election precinct where
he offers his vote ten days next
preceding any election, shall be
deemed q qualified elector at such
election"
Under the laws and decisions of
the United States government, the
voter from another state who
makes a homestead e ry immedi.
ately loses his previous citizenship
and his right to vote in that other
state and becomes q citizen of the
state, county and precinct in which
his homestead is located.
Therefore, any male voter from
La state outside of South Dakota
who may have taken homestead
in this state prior to May 8, 1904
and established his residence there
on, is entitled to vote at the forth
, coming election in the precinct il
which his homestead is located.
In case of challenge of an,
such homesteader all he has to d
is to ''swear in his vote" in tn
, form prescribed by law. and tn
law will protect him in his right
: as an elcctor.

party more than another, any or
interested will receive the fulle.
