Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 9.-That the
reforms promised in the republican
state platform will be enacted into law
by the Legislature at It's session in len
uary and February is certain in view
of complete returns from South Dakota
as to the makeup of the coming legis-
lature. These returns show that the
republicans have elected thirty-six
members OF the state senate, the indie
pendent republicans two and the DEM
ocrats seven. In the house the repub-
licans will have eighty-one members
n the democrats eight. This, on
joint ballot, will give the republicans
III votes to II votes for the democrats
and Independent republicans, or a re-
publican majority of an even 100. The
dominant faction of the party will have
more than enough votes to attach
emergency clauses to a primary law
and other reform legislation. There
fore, there is no doubt that the cleo
ton two years hence, for the first time
in the history of the state, will be I'M
der the primary system.

A Sudden Death

Last evening asZ. T. Funk
stepped on Chicago & North
western train No. 6 at Council
Bluffs, he was noticed to reel,
and as the train got in motion
he collapsed in the vestibule.
The body was picked up and
brought to Missouri Valley and
taken in charge by Coroner
Hennessey who called in the
Drs. Tamisiea to make an ex-
animation. The body was still
warm when the doctors arrived
and remained in that condition
for several hours, before life
was pronounced extinct.
From papers found on the body
his identity was discovered,
and a son in Omaha was COM
municated with, also a tele-
gram sent to his wife, who is
visiting in Bloomington, Neb.,
with a daughter, Mrs. R. v.
McGrew. A son, 2. G. Funk,
of Omaha, and a brother-in-law,
j. A. Gallaher. of Jefferson, ar
rived in the city this morning
and took charge of the remains.

who is one of the best known
politicians in the state. He

Mrs. j. A. Gallaher, of Jeffer-
son. The deceased was an old
soldier, being now about sixty
one years of age. He served
during the war of the rebellion
in a Pennsylvania cavalry.
The death was a sad one and
unexpected by his relatives
who state that he had never
been sick in his life. The d.
rect cause of his death was
heart failure. The remains
will be taken to Jefferson, Ia,
tomorrow morning, for burial.

The Lecture Last Night.

The lecture last night at.the
Opera House, by DR.. WarneEof
Topeka, Kansas, was attende1
by a poor house, but was worthy
a large audiance. The lecture
was on "Fraternities," and was
able and interesting, presenting
many new features on that in
teresting subject. After the
lecture, the Doctor was tender
ed a reception at the hall of the
K. & L. Of S., of this city, under
whose auspices the lecture was
given, and was enjoyed by many,
where speeches, visiting and
music was INDUCED in, and re-
freshments were served.
The Knights & Ladies of Sc
curity is one of the largest of
our city's lodges, numbering
some 200 members, and has
been of incalcuable benefit to
many families in this section,
and deserves we'll at the hands
of the public.
They have undertaken to fur
nish the people a course of lee
lures this winter, at a very low
figure, and have succeeded in
filling their part of the contract
with able speakes, DR.. Warner
being one Of them, and we are
sorry to say their effort to ben
eft the public has not been as
highly appreciated as their eff
fort deserves. We are inclined
to the opinion that if our peo-
pie could have heard last nights
lecture on fraternity" and the
social and financial working of
the Order, the number of mem
bership would be increased and
lectures more generally attend
ed and appreciated.
