PIERRE, S. d.. Nov. 28.-(special.)-
About 800 sets OF papers have come in from
the November teachers examination IN the
various counties OF the state and the force
OF the state educational department Is
buslly at work marking these papers. The
department reports demands for teachers
from some Of the counties OF the state,
while others report their schools all In
operation. The greatest complaint OF short
ages come from counties where the town
ship school officials insist on holding wages
down 70 the minimum for which they can
secure teachers. In the counties where
higher wages are paid. the shortage does
not appear to be felt. The department. also
reports a better class OF papers coming In
from the counties where the higher wages
are paid than from those where the ques-
ton Of keeping salaries down TO the low
notch prevails.

CurzOn Unable to Speak.
Although this was the fourth day OF the
budget debate and the absence Of Lord
Curzon, who but for a sudden indisposition
was to have continued the unionist attack
upon the liberal measure, detracted some
what from the popular interest, there was
little falling off iu>the attendance when the
House Of Lords met this afternoon.
The benches again were crowded with
peers, members of the House of Commons
we're gathered about the throne, and peer
esses, diplomats and other distinguished
persons filled the galleries.
The extension of the time for debate will
give opportunity for more OF the lords TO
be heard and many maiden speeches will
be made. Lord Revelstoke, who has been
a member of the second chamber for twelve
year made his first speech in the House
Of Lords this week.
Lord Ashbourne, who has been a mem.
Der Of several unionist cabinets, took Lord
Curzon's place In r%eopening the debate, and
while many were disappointed at the failure
OF the former viceroy of India to speak,
the VISITORS heard an orator almost equally
notable.
Lords and History.
Lord Ashbourne contended there was no
authority on constitutional history that dis.
puted the right of the lords to act accord
ing to their discretion in accepting the
budget.
This years budget, by presenting a va
riety Of bills within its covers, sought for
the first time in the history of the budgets
to go far beyond the scope Of providing
revenue to meet the annual expenditures,
he said. He declared the government had
performed an unconstitutional act in lacking
on the budget bill a measure for the taxa
ton of undeveloped land. Against the
licensing clauses. which, after the rejection
OF the licensing bill, appeared here In a
worse form, he also held was obvious tack
ing.
He added hat evidences of the unrest
caused by the budget bill were everywhere.
Consols had dropped, he said, and untold
millions of capital had been driven abroad.
OF what use, he asked, was the House Of
Lords, II, when the time for action came,
1t could not act?"
