The nomination of Judge D.
Cady Herrick as the democratic
candidate for governor of New
York state was the result of COM
promise between the two warning
factions. Although Mr.. Herrick
was a believer in the gold standard
he voted for Bryan in 1896 and
1900, thus demonstrating his 10y
atty to party on national issues,
no matter what the principles ad-
vocated. Two years ago he fought
the Hill organization and bolted
the democratic state ticket, giving
his support to Odell, the republi-
can candidate for governor. Hav-
ing shown his loyalty to the Bryan
followers by voting the national
ticket straight, and ingratiating
himself with the Tammany faction
by fighting Hill two years ago, he
was we'll fitted for a compromise
candidate. Walter Wellman in
writing to the Chicago Record
Herald regarding the political sit
uation says:
The democrats intend to put up
a great fight for New York, both
for president and governor, regard
less of the fact that Judge Parker
is pretty surely defeated even if he
succeeds in carrying this state. It
seems like q far cry to 1908, but in
passing it will do no harm to state
that I am convinced the men sur
rounding Judge Parker are we'll
nigh hopeless of winning this year
and that they are striving to make
| a showing which will enable them
| to retain their hold upon the ma
tional organization during the
coming four years. The question
with them is whether or not the
| South will be willing to continue
its alliance with the East, formed
at ST. Louis last July, or whether

Tie Miller Sun, which has here
tofore been a staunch democratic
paper, has come out for Roosevelt,
and in giving its reasons for the
change the Sun says:
The democrats and populists OF
the west, snubbed and abandoned
by the millionaire leaders of the
east who controlled the st. Louis
convention, will suffer no violence
of conscience or principle in sup
porting the republican ticket. The
settlement of the great coal strike
by Roosevelt's interference meant
much to the common people every
where, while the national irriga-
tlon act that he urged anu assist
ed so strongly to become a law,
meant a changed west for the bet
ter from the moment he signed the
bill. One great railway trust was
dissolved by his action. Of all the
candidates before the people Roose-
welt is the only one who has actu-
ally shown himself in sympathy
with western progress and western
people.

Things to Remember.

Things to Remember.
There are a few things in regard
to capital removal that every voter
should remember.
lst. It will not cost the tax-pay.
ers one cent to remove the capital
to Mithell.
End. Mitchell gives the free use
of her large fire proof building for
capitol purposes, thus saving the
state the expense Of building until
the state lands set apart for that
purpose can be disposed of to adj
vantage.
3D. If the capital remains at
Pierre a new building must be pro-
vidcd at once.
4th. The tax payers will be
saved an expense of about $14OO
in mileage alone every time the
legislature assemblies by having
the capital at Mitchell.
5th. The advantage of having
the capital located in one of the
most prosperous and progressive
sections of the state rather than in
the midst of q purely stock raising
country will be of inestimable val
ue through the advertising that the
state will receive from visitors who
have business at the capital.
9th. The removal of the capi.
tai from Pierre will not detract
one cent from the value of the land
in that part of the state. The land
around Pierre can now be bought
at from $6 to $6 per acre, and any
person VINO would claim that this
is a fictitious value depending on
the location of the capital is a
'knocker."
9TH. Pierre is not as near to
the center of population as Mitch
ell. 1t is no nearer the center
than it was fourteen years ago
when it was made the capital, and
the prospects of improvement in
this respect are no better than they
were fourteen years ago.
9Th. Mitchell already has ex-
cellent railroad connections with
all parts of the state, while Pierre
has neither advantages nor pros
poets.

The democratic county conven-
tion was held in Tyndall last Sat-
urday and the following ticket nom :
mated:
Senator-J. P. Cooley.
Representatives Aug. Koenig
and Lee Michaels.
Treasurer-Jos. Y. Wagner.
Reg. of Deeds-F. A. Morgan.
Supt. of Schools-E. Watwood.
States Atty.-Barney Cole.
Sherif-Robert Gum.
Auditor-Vac. Kreycik.
County Judge-Geo. Kirschman.
Clerk of Courts-Frank Cach.
It is good representative ticket
and will probably receive about the
normal vote of the party which is
about 200 votes short of enough to
elect. Messrs. Cooley, Wagner,
Koenig and Kreycik are re-nomi-
mated to succeed themselves. In
the case of Mr.. Kreycik it must be
acknowledged that he has made an
efficient and accommodating officer
and he will be a strong candidate.
The others will probably not run
| as strong as they did two years
ago. Frank each is also a popu-
lar young man in Scotland where
| he is best known but his acqualn-
tance throughout the county is lin
tied while in A. L. Fish he has a
very popular opponent whose man
agement of the Office during sever
al terms has strengthened him with
the people.
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1904-09-29

it will go back to its copartnership
with the radicals and Bryanites of
the West. Many democrats fear
that the defeat of Parker in No
vember will mean Bryan for ma
tlonal leader, and probably for
candidate in 1908, and they real
lze that the surest way to prevent
what in their opinion would be the
final and fatal absorption of dem
ocracy into the party of radical
ism is to carry New York for Par
ker this year.

South Dakota will still retain its
record of the past six or seven
years, as the greatest wealth pro-
ducing state per capita in the un-
ion. According to the best esti-
mates the total production of new
wealth this season will aggregate
$l48, 956, 1903, or about $1O,OOO,OOO
greater than that of 1908. Esti-
mating the population at 100000
this makes a per capita production
of $297.9l for every man, woman
and child in the state, including
the 10000 Indians.

ened and in some cases the salaries of teachers and the county superinten- dents have been considerably increased.
 'This work has been accomplished un- der the gentle guiding hand or our pop ular and progressive state superintendent of public instruction, Hon. j. Y. Joyner, enthusiastically and, effectively seconded by Governor Charles B. Aycock, that rare man and magnetic educational statesman, and by the assistance of the association of representative educators for tho promotion O public education in North Carolina, and the women's asso- citation for the improvement of public school houses and grounds. The part of the Southern Education Board in the work has been paying the campaign ex- penses of workers representing these two organizations. The womens associa- ton not only have done much valuable work for the improvement of school houses and grounds, but in many coun- ties they have established as prizes for the most successful teacher in making these improvements scholarships suffi- cient in amount to pay the expenses of such teachers while attending summer school.
 Tn conclusion I wish to submit a mat ter of general interest-the effect of the loan fund established by the North Caro- lima legislature a little more than @ year ago. Supt. Joyner is recognized as the father of this scheme, and his state ment of the results of it's operation at the end of the first year is interesting and suggestive.

| w. Hills Report.

I. w. Hill. state superintendent of edu- cation in Alabama, submitted the fol- lowing:
 'In the fifteen minutes granted to me on this occasion l can do no more than give mere statement of facts.
 Prior to 1901 the appropriation for public school purposes guaranteed by the constitution was $iO0,0O0. This amount however. was increased by legislative enactment until In 1901 1t reached S550, coo This. with the interest of the six teenth section funds and other land funds, and the mill school tax, gives us a total of about sl,100.000 as the avail able school fund for the scholastic year ending September 30, 1904

Examination Law.

'erhe trend of sentiment among our people for better qualified teachers, for better salaries, for better school houses, and for better supervision Is upward. In connection with this question of teach CTS feel that I should state that Ala bama has what is considered the best examination law in any of the states taking it as a whole.
 school organization in Alabama has always. been defective. Under the con- stitution the public funds must be dis tributed by counties. Under legislative enactment the school fund must be ap- portloned to the several townships or districts within the county on per capita basis. As a result there are in Alabama some townships that have suf- fclent funds to run their schools nlns months in the year while other town ships in the same county have not enough funds to provide a good teacher for even four months in the year.
 Tt Is hoped that under the workings of the redistricting law passed by the last legislature this condition will be ini some degree remedied. Township lines will no longer be arbitrary school dis- trict boundries Every district will be established according to centers of popu- lation and natural barriers. By this law a county board of education is establishS ed with power to make rules and regu< lations governing the schools of tha county. A uniform course of study can be prescribed and enforced. Salaries can be regulated and made to conform to the qualifications of the teachers and the character of the work they have td perform. The county superintendent will be no longer mere disbursng officer. but as executive officer of the board of education he will have power to enforea it's rulings. and in turn, the board of education will have the power to requird him to visit the schools and exercise th< general duties of supervisor.

From South Carolina.

Hon. O. B. Martin state superintendent of edpcation of South Carolina, talked interesting, saying:
 ''I am asked to give a brief report Of educational conditions, progress and prospects in the state of the palmetto, the pine the rice field, the dispensary and the pitch fork Perhaps 1t Is well to refresh your minds in regard to the ge- ography, the topography and the anthro- pography of that part of the moral vine yard now under consideration. You will remember that about half of the area of this state extends from the seaeoast to a dividing line which we call the sand hills In this fertile, alluVial country which ranges from the sea level to tan altitude of 300 feet, will be found pro- fusion of alligators, pickaninnies, rice fields, sugar cane tobacco, cotton and pine and cypress forests. Here, too, are found our phosphate deposits and here we are beginning our great trucking strawberry and melon industries. This is the country of the wealthy South Car olina ante-bellum gentleman and these vast acres make up his plantation. Here may be- seen the dilapidated mansion; tand the fact that in some sections there are thirty negroes to one white person, shows that the descendants of his nu- merous slaves are congested in the same locality. The impulsive and impetuous character shows that thousands of French people settled here in colonial days. It is one of our great problems to make fifty farms out of the great planta- tion and then provide proper school con- ditions and social necessities for changed and reformed civilization. This part of our state has enormous possi- bilities We have less foreign population than any other state, except one; and only four states have as much negro population as South Carolina An. incom- ing wave of immigration has begun in this section of the state; we have high tide of zeal and energy in industrial lines and it well behooves us to take school prospects at the flood and lead on to fortune
