POLITICAL PARTIES SEEM NOT
TO KNOW OF NEW LAWS
CAUCUS LAW SHOULD Be STUDIED
Repu ublican Party Only One So Far
That Has Arranged For Its
Convention in juno

While great deal has been said
in regard to the representation at
the republican state convention, but
little has been heard about the con-
ventions of the other parties in the
state. Under the caucus law which
fixes the convention dates and fixes
the representation to which each
party shall be entitled, the conven
tions of all the parties must be held
on the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in June preceding the cleo
tion. And up to the present the
only party which has yet made a
move toward calling a convention is
the republican party.
While the South Dakota caucus
law does not attempt to in any way
limit the PERCENTAGE of votes which
entities party to make nominations
it places limitation, in section, of
the number of delegates entitled to
seats in state convention, placing
the limitation at one delegate for
fifty votes or major fraction thereof
cast for governor by the party at
the preceding election, only por-
tion of the state would be repre-
sented in conventions called by the
prohibitionlsts the socialists or the
peoples party in case they call q
convention this year. In tact that
party would find its representation
in but nine counties under the limit
of fifty votes or major fraction for
a delegate and only sixteen delegates
would be entitled to seats in their
convention. The socialists would
have total of .fifty-four and the
prohibitionists like number. The
democratic convention will have q
representation OF 492 in which every
county will have representation, al
though Buffalo gets onto the list
only by major fraction, not having
the full fifty votes. Sully had just a
shade over the required fifty which
also entities that county to one dele.

favur.te and lover, Prince Potemkin.
He was ali able general He subdued
The Tartar Khan of Crimca and added
that beautiful peninsula to the Rus

called Taurlde, and Catherine christen-

After taking possession of the palace

The American ambassador has rented
a palace only two or three blocks dis
