Statement OF the Campaign
for County Option

for County Option
One of the most significant meet

held for some time was finished here
Wednesday.

Booth of DeSmet; w. T. McCon-
nell, OF Mitchell, and Rev. a. c. Nc
Cauley, of Bridgewater, met with
Supt. Grafton and outlined the poll
COME.
County option carried almost, but
met with a defeat of 1875 votes.
This vas not regarded as d defeat,
but merely as a repulse, for a change
oil is votes in each county would
have turned the contest for the tenn
perance forces. Ii the fight had con-
tinued three days longer, we would
have Won II we could have had
another thousand dollars to have
spent in the campaign, we would
have Won. If the bill had been about
one third as long as it was, we could
have won. The carrying of two
counties with the majority vote like
that of Stanley county, and we would
have won. The League resolved to
continue the fight, prepare a county
option bill, and leave the matter tc
the fair-mindedness of the people
of South Dakota, whether they de.
sire to have their rights as American
citizens to be restored to them
whether no taxation without repre-
~sentatlon shall be a principle deal
to the hearts of all our citizens, anC
whether majority rule or the rule O
the gang shall control the policies
and the politics of South Dakota
! We believe that in the election o
Senator Wesley as Governor, there
is clearly the triumph of the goot
people of the state, that the saloon
shall not dictate who shall be it

THE COOLEST DAY.

Kansas City Journal. - January 1.
1855. forty-three years ago, is said
to have been the coolest day in the
memory of the present generation,
says a Macon letter. Almost to the
first of January 1865, the weather
had been mild, much like the month
just closing. The mercury suddenly
dropped to % and 80 below zero and
a fierce blizzard set in. The Union
troops were quartered in the church
and school building of Macon and
they were compelled to burn their
hunks and the flooring to keep warm.
Some families tore down their fenc-
ing and barns for fuel. as nothing
was being brought to town. Stock was
frozen in great numbers and suffer
ing throughout the country was in
tense. The cold period lasted five
days and when it ended the ice on the
ponds and streams was fourteen
inches thick and over In recent
church case tried here Captain Fea-
gans. quartermaster cheerfully testi
fed that he was compelled to tear up
the inside of church building for
fuel to keep the soldiers from freez
ing to death.

THE NEWSPAPER BUSINESS.

Council Bluffs Nonpareil The
minutes of the December II meeting
OF the Associated Press, a COPY of
which is supplied to each member Of
that association, are significant in the
evidence they contain in regard to the
newspaper situation of the country AS
rule at the regular meeting of the
directors. and at the annual meeting.
held in September of each year, there
are dozens of applications from newly
established daily newspapers. or from
papers about to be established, for the
Associated Press service but at the
December meeting there were appli-
cations for the service from only
three papers, one in Oregon one in
Indiana, and one in PENNSYLVANIA
the latter being a miners journal
Not only was there a lack of applica-
tons from newspapers. but in nearly
dozen instances papers that had
been receiving the report. asked per-
mission to withdraw, most of them
on the ground that they were not fl
nancially able to continue the ex-
pense involved in receiving this news
report
All this indicates that the newspa-
ishing condition in these piping times
of financial depression. The Associat-
ed Press service is far and away the
biggest and best news distributing
agency in the world, and a daily news
paper without telegraphic news SER
vice is like wagon without a horse.
Hence the number of papers that
seek to contract with this agency for
its service is a pretty good index to
the status OF the newspaper business.
There are several causes that may
be cited in explanation of this appar.
ent falling off of new newspaper
projects. In the first place, by a rul-
ing of the postoffice department
made few months ago, the number
OF samples or free copies that can
be mailed out by the publisher of
newspaper, may not exceed 10 per
cent of his paid circulation. This rul-
