RAILWAYS TO HEAD OFF
TWO-CENT PASSENGER RATE.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat says
that in order to head off legislation
providing for a fiat 2-cent passenger
fare, the western railways will sub
nit to the legislatures of Iowa, Wis
consin, and Minnesota and To either
the legislature or the state railroad
and warehouse commission of llll-
nois, a proposition looking to the vol
untary adoption by the roads of a
9 y cent rate i'm these states. They
may make a similar proposition to
the lawmakers or commissions of
some other western states, although
this is not now considered probable
Well informed railway officials are
practically agreed that it will be fu-
tile uncompromisingly to oppose the
popular agitation for a 2-cent
fare at least in the state mentioned.
They do Concede that such rate
would be remunerative on the con-
trary, they contend that the only
portion of the country not now hav-
ing a 2-cent rate in which IL would
be fair, are the more thickly settled
parts Of Indiana and Illinois. IT is
maintained that even a 2-cent rate
will not he generally proftable-that
in fact, even the present Scent fare
is positively Improbable i'm a great
part of the west
cone argument used i'm favor Of
2-cent fare laws i'm western states -

such a law was passed i'm Ohio, and

\ few days ago a Chinaman died
while enroute on a Colorado & South
ern passenger train from Trinidad

LEGISLATORS KEPT OUT
OF GRIP OF FUEL DEALERS

Iroquois, S. d., Feb. Isl. f. Halla-
day, Of this place, who recently retired
from the office of state auditor, and
who by reason Of his official position
kept in close touch with affairs affect
ing the kind of material to be used in
the new state capitol building. states
that a number of newspapers and some
of the Pierre correspondents have made
the statement that when the new cap
itol building bill was before the state
senate it was amended so as to
strengthen the provision for using
South Dakota stone.
This is not true" said Mr.. Halliday.
Exactly the reverse action was taken.
The original bill provided that in the
event that home stone could be pro-
cured at a cost not to exceed 5 per
cent. in excess of other material it was
to be used, but If not, material Of like
quality was to be purchased. The term
like quality was stricken out and the
words other suitable material sub
stituted.
The representatives who favored
home material at any cost and under
any condition fought the amendmen-,
but were largely out voted by those who
did not want the commission put into
the power Of a few quarryrnen. Like
quality, technically construed, would
nave prevented the commission from
using outside stone unless ii happened
10 be absolutely identical with the home

Returns to Chicago.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-The heroes of An
.hony Hopes novel, who stepped from
commonplace existence into the midst
Of the nobility and then returned with
out a tinge of regret, to their old hum
drum life, did nothing more wonderful
than a young woman telegraph opera
tor in Chicago has just done.
1t was Miss Medora Olive Newell,
operator for the Postal Telegraph COM
pany, who, at one bound, leaped the
breach which separated the chan in
the telegraph substation at Market and
Adams streets and BEGAN the guest of
the Hungarian nation. Now that 1t Is
over she has returned to her telegraph
instrument n is well satisfied.
Chance and Miss Neweil's ingenuity
were responsible for the attention she
attracted. She happened to be aboard
the liner on which were 102 members
of The hague peace commission, bound
to Washington to interest the presi-
dent in another session of the body, two
years ago. The Hungarian members,
on the occasion of their rulers birth
day, were anxious to send c~ongratula-
tons. The operator IN the ship could
not operate the wireless successfully
Miss Newell succeeded in getting the
message off and so ingratiated herself
tina she received IN invitation TO be-
come the guest of Hungary.
There she was feted for three weeks

casions. Now she says travelling AND

souri, river TO drink from an air hoie
and their weight caused a large cake
of ice 10 detach itself throwing many
Of the animals into the river. the rest

Heated rapidly down stream. A num-
Der of Indians who were on the bank
rushed to the rescue of the poor brutes
and by dexterous use of their larlats
Succeeded in rescuing all but nine.
The cattle that went into the river
would swim to the edge of the ice and
remain there with their noses pointed
straight upward until they were pulled
out by the Indians or sucked under the
ice by the force Of the current. Those
on the ice foe kept milling about from
edge to edge while now and then one
would be pushed off. The Indians ran
along the edge Of the stream with their
lariats roping the cattle on the foe as
ii drifted down the river n pulling
them into the water and to shore with
great rapidity.

BIG CHUNK OF COMMISSIONS
is IN COURT CONTROVERSY

Sioux Falls, s. D., Feb. 19.-Whether
the county treasurers of the various
counties Of South Dakota are entitled
to 4 or / per cent. commission for the
collection of city and school taxes, is
a question pending before Judge Jones
of the state circuit court here.
1t has been the practice for years in
practically all of the counties of the
state for the county treasurers to re-
tain 4 per cent. commission for COL
iecting the city and school taxes. The
4 per cent. commission Is exacted I'M
der a general law enacted in 1877.
The contention of the attorneys rep-
resenting the Salem board Of educa-
ton Is hat under section 1865 of the
political code, county treasurers are al
lowed to hold back only / per cent. OF
the city and school taxes collected by
them.

HOGS FLOATED BY
ON A STRAW STACK

Burbank, S. D., Feb. 20.-Water from
The overlooking Missouri river is with
IN fifty rods of the Milwaukee and ST.
Paul railroad station here. Between
here and Vermillion miles Of track is
inundated and much of 1t washed away.
At one point In plain sight from here
a big strawstack, which loated from
somebody's farm, is planted squarely
on the railroad track.
c. w. Devoe, a farmer six miles
southwest from here, was one Of the
many farmers driven from their homes.
He lost considerable property, forty-ive
hogs in one bunch drowning. The swine,
when the water approached, managed
20 climb on top Of a large pile of
straw. Later the flood washed the
strawstack away, the hogs floating
along until the water-soaked straw
could bear the weight no longer, and
.hen they drowned. Three feet Of wa
Ter is in Devoe's house.
Much live stock was lost, principally
hogs. Wood n hay fioated away in
great quantities. 1t is not anticipated
further damage will be done. This
town is on rather high ground and will
scarcely be damaged. The flood is
worse than the n eight years ago.

BETTER THAN THE SHEEP

Belle Fourche, S. D., Feb. 19.-Latest
reports indicate hat the cattle losses
"a this country will not be as heavy as
was feared, although the loss of sheep
will be great. Snow to a depth of sew
eral inches covered the ranges and In
such a packed condition that 1t was i'm
possible for the sheep or cattle to get
to the grass beneath.
The cattle, however, although thin,
IRE strong and If the weather continues
mild and with no severe storms beforet
the breaking of spring, they will come
out all right. Some of the sheep COM
panies have lost very heavily, in some
cases half OF the fiocks already hay-,
Ing perished. Conditions about Rapid
