STRUGGLE BETWEEN REACTION
AND REFORM lsssRoucHT
70 a HEAD.
PREMIER FORCES THE ISSUE
LIBERAL SUCCESSES GIVE HIM
COURAGE TO PLAY HIS
FINAL CARD.

St. Petersburg, April 1.-THE stead
lily swelling tide of Liberal successes
and the overwhelming victory of the
Constitutional Democrats in the cleo
ton at Moscow have brought the
struggle between reaction and reform
to head. Premier White late last
night, according to information which
has reached the Associated Press,
again rendered his resignation to the
emperor with clear cut intimation
that the latter must choose at once,
between him and Minister of the In
terror Durnovo. The emperor, accord
ing to report, took the resignation I'M
der consideration and returned no an
swer.
Events Play Premier's Game.
Since his return from Tsarskoe-Selo
on Thursday of last week, when he
pleaded with Emperor Nicholas to
heed the voice of the people and
grant written constitution, Premier
Witte has brought all possible pres
sure upon the emperor to divorce him
self from the reaction2ly cabal and
align himself unreserv.dly with the
new school,. Events now, as during
the great October strike, preceding the
issuance Of the imperial manifesto
have played the premier's game
Every new election dispatch has made
it clearer that any, idea that the i'm
perial parliament could be held in
leading strings is utterly futile; and
after the receipt of the returns from
twenty-eight provinces and Moscow,
Count Witte apparently felt strong
enough to play his final card aud force
the issue.
Ticklish Job for Some One.
II he wins he will replace NJ Dur
novo with NJ. Shipoff or some other
Liberal, working in agreement with
the government. If he loses, Durnovo,
Trepoff and Ignatieff will inherit the
ticklish job of dealing with the ac-
credited representatives Of the nation.
The latest dispatches bring little
comfort to the Conservatives. Re-
ports continue to be favorable to the
Constitutional Democrats. One of the
notable features is the election of
Prince Urusoff, who resigned the vice
ministry of the interior to stand for
the national parliament. Michael
Stakovich, the we'll known zemstvoist,
also has been elected

and it was the damned farmer vote
that decided his fate. Mr.. Hearst
was defeated in the governorship race
in New York, not by the Intelligent
voters of the cities in the Empire
state, but by the damned farmers
Golfers Weekly accounts for the
heavy farmer vote against Mr.. Hearst
upon the theory that his "educative
literature" had not reached the agri-
culturists in sufficient quantity and
for sufficient length of time to infu-
ence thought in the rural districts.
But it is more probable that the
farmers of New York voted in the
fitness of knowledge of the candidates
and their principles, ayowed and act
ual.
The damned farmer is an intelli-
gent voter. He has time to make him
self conversant with political questions
national and local. and he gives more
attention to such questions than the

I'D like mushrooms.

ND like mushrooms.
The Belle Fourche irrigation pro-
ject, second only in Importance TO
railroad building as a source Of new
development, is making rapid pro-
gress. By next spring 10,00O-acres viii
have been reclaimed and the whole
area will have been watered by the
spring or 1909. The lands so opened to
cultivation will be among the richest
and most fertile in the whole north
west.
Financially the state government
finds itself in better sha pc than for
many years. Thanks to the conserva-
ism Of the last legislature in making
appropriations, the floating debt at
this time, less cash in the treasury APP
plicable to its reduction, is approx
imately 5000, 900. The bonded debt is
but $4,000. and money is now in the
treasury for its liquidation. An an
rual levy OF 3 mills is sufficient to
provide funds for state purposes.
Financially the people Of South Da-
kota are living in Easy street. Within
ten years the total bank deposits have
increased freFi 100000 to s45, O0o,-
600. Although the demands for money
used in local business are increasing,
the bankers are continually sending
surplus funds out of the state for in
vestment.
Work begun this year on the new
state capitol at Pierre has been dis
continued temporarily to allow the
coming legislation to determine the
quality of stone to be used. There is
in~Sistent demand that the South Da-
kota capitol shall be built of South
Dakota stone, regardless of expense,
and it is probable the legislature will
meet this demand.
Weather and crop conditions in
South Dakota during the year have
been almost ideal. There were no
late or early frosts; moisture was
evenly distributed, and there was
little intense heat. The autumn was
too wet for convenient harvesting,
but that is a minor drawback. The
only real complaint by farmers this
year has been in regard TO scarcity of
labor.

Thompson McCleary. Of the Second
Minnesota district, who was elected to
congress two years ago by a plurality
OF 8. 1000 was defeated this month by a
margin or about 1000 votes, and in ex-
PLANTATION he says sthe damned farm
did it, Mr.. McCleary..was an ardent
standpatter and had much to do with
the dissemination Of standpat liuera-
ture during the campaign. Joseph
Weeks Babcock OF Wisconsin was de-
feated for various reasons, one Of
which was that he was not regarded
as trustworthy, and his resembling
speeches against the standpatters
we're nottaken seriously. The damn
ed farmers of Grant, Crawford, Iowa
Juneau, Richland, Sank and Vernon
counties were responsible for the de-
feat Of that distinguished statesman.
