IICaRs HAVE A HARD TINE.
Difficult Matter for them to Get Lii
quOr in Char ieston.
News and Courier, 27th.) J

(News and Courier, Nth.) .
Finding that it has become dan
gerous to haul whiskey and beer
through the streets of the city in pri-
vate conveyances, because of the re-
cent activity Of the police in confis-
eating hundreds Of dollars worth of
contraband liquor, and that the store
house system was equally defective
because of the vigilance of the State
constabularly the blind tigers, ac-
cording to the police, have resorted
to the Southern Express Company to
carry liquor to private residences,
from where it Is distributed to vari-
GUS blind tigers by Illicit dealers,
that is, If it escapes detection by the
raiding squads. Liquor shipped into
the State cannot be refused by the
Southern Express Company, and at
the same time may not be seized as
contraband by the police while in
transit. The moment, however, it
leaves the hands of the driver of the
express wagon it becomes lawful prey
for the police, provided the latter
have evidence to the effect that the
consignment is intended for the ille-
gal liquor interests.
Police Sergt. Quinn and his squad
were accordingly busy yesterday in
following the wagons Of the Express
Company to all parts of the city, and
several large consigrments were bag
ged in this way The hauls of the
police, including those made from
private conveyances and after the
stuff had left the Southern Express
CNmpany's wagons, amounted to 60
quarts and Asa one-half pints of
whiskey, mostly of the Peach and
Honey" brand. 1t is claimed by the
police that several consignments
were disowned by parties at whose
residences they were about to be
delivered under the eyes of the raid
ing squad. The liquor was then car
ried back to the offices of the South
ern Express Company and is being
carefully watched by the police.
1t was reported yesterday that a
citizen had served the chief of police
and the members of the raiding
squad with claim and delivery papers
in connection with two cases of IL
quor, which, he claims. had been
seized by the police, although the
liquor had been intended for person.
al use. The haul Is said to have con-
sisted Of several hundred half-pints of
whiskey, valued at between $40 and
$40. Chief Of Police Boyle was ask
ed yesterday evening concerning the
report, but the police head stated
that no papers had been served on
him or any member Of the police de-
partment.
The State raiding squad yesterday
morning made the second big haul of
the week by seizing fifty gallons of
liquor at the extreme west end of
Grove street, in the northern part of
the city, from the cellar of a private
residence. The stuff had evidently
been beached by vessel from the
Ashley river and left at the house for
the blind tiger agents to distribute
about the city. The whiskey consist
ed of two ten-gallon kegs of rye, one
keg of old gin and two casks of the
best corn "licker."

Should Use Referendum

The people of the state should
use the referendum on the bill
passed by the last Legislature
dividing the state into congresslon-
al districts. Whether or not, q
seriou, attempt will be made to
invoke the referendum. we do not
know. but it certalnl y should be,
and if some one would take the
initiative there would be nc
trouble TO secure the invocation.
All effort was made to attach the
emergency c lausc to the bill III
order TO defeat the referendum,
but il l. our information that the
blii did not secure the, number OF
votes required for the attaching OF
the emergency q ause. nor could il
have defeated The rtltnuum If it
had: for the court, would no doubt
have to hold thai the constitution
al provision giving the referendum
to the people, cannot be defeated
by attaching an emergency clause
to q bill which under the terms OF
the constitution. carries no emerg-
encN.
The congressional district bill
was u purcl Y factional measure.
II WAS first undertaken to put Mr.,
Martin and Mr.. Burke in the same
district SO That at least one of these
troublesome stalwarts could be 20,
rid of. 1t has been shown that the
people want them, and so the re.
formers tried to make it lmpossi
bile for the people to have them
The bill which passed was boosted
by Frank NJ. Byrne of Faulk coun
ty. il. G.. Shober of Hyde county
and by state Senator Ewart OF
Hughes. Each one of these wants
to go to congress, and no one OF
them is willing to make his appeA
to the people Of the whole state
Hence the adoption of measure
dividing thc whole state into con.
nresSional districts right on the
eve of the re-apportionment after
the census OF 1910.
The congressional districts ART
like man: they are tcarfully anC
wonderfully made" Under the
bin as passed. Roberts county
which is.thc extreme northeastern
county in the state is in the Same
district with Fall River, which is
the extreme southwestern county
of the state. There are no two
counties IN the state which are
further apart, and still they are
put III the same congressional dis
trict. simply for partisan advan
tage.
After the census is taken ir
1910. South Dakota will have
three congressman. Then it vii
be necessary to divide the state in
to districts. There is absolutely
no need Of doing it before, excep
that doubtful need which come.
from tuctional emergency.
We hope to see this law sub
jectcu TO the scrutiny of the refer
endum. The referendum should
also be invoked on other bills
So long as we have the referendum
we should show our appreciation
OF it by making ilberal use of thu
provision. Then if it is a goot
thing. as our populist friends in
sist it is. we will find it out, if i
is a bad thing we will also max,
that discovery. Certainly in thi
case, the referendum should be in
yoked to give US two years tim,
in which to think the thing over
After we have duly thought i
over. the state will have to b.
divided into congressional district
anyway, for the new census will
give us three congressman. :

the most efficient officials the state
has ever had.

has ever had
The new law does away entirely
with receivers for failing banks.
Instead they are handled entirely
by this department. which has the
power to appoint any number Of
deputies needed to do the work.
1t is provided that these deputies
shall be allowed only Is per day
to include expenses rs we'll as com.
pensntion, and this is not enough
inducement to cause them to allow
n receivership to hang on The
change will mean quicker dis
charge of receiverships and at a
lower cost.
Heretofore some of the active
bank officials of the state have cx-
perienced some difficulty in distin
gushing their money from that
of the bank. A change in the
code makes it unlawful for any
active official to borrow from it.
This does not prohibit the director,
who may be engaged in numerous
other business, from being treated
as any other customer.
Up to this time the. banks could
carry their reserve any place they
might wish. Under this freedom,
it SO happened that chains of banks
were developed. the reserves were
passed around and the same money
did reserve duty at various points.
The department was powerless tc
stop the practice until now. when
it must approve the selection OF
reserve agencies.
Hereafter banks may not re-
serve as deposits more than II
times the amount of their banks tc
bring up their capita and it will
also assure a reasonable margin
for the protection of depositors.
The new law marks the end OF
the -, 900 banks in South Dakota,
it being recognized the day when
they should be permitted in sparce-
" settled portions of the state has
passed. We, OF course, could not
reach the $1,000 banks already in
business. But it was provided
that when their deposits become
more than 10 times their capital
and surplus they must increase
their capital to $4,000.
1t is provided also in the amend
ments made to the law that at
least three directors of each bank
must live in the county, where it is
located. This is expected to make
it easier to get together the direc-
tors of small banks.

Lennon Loses In County Seat
Contest

The work Of recanvass Of the
votes on the county seat question
for Perkins county was begun last
Monday at Belle Fourche on IN
order from Judge Rice. The work
was under the supervision 0; Clerk
Of Court Sellers, who was assisted
by La Fleiche 4 Simons, for the
Bisouites, and Logan Berry and
Frank Brown appearing for the
Lemmonites. It was hoped by the
latter to develop enough errors in
the official count to change the re-
suit and give Lennon the county
seat.
After the opening of all the
boxes and counting and talIying
the votes of each precinct and com
pairing the same with the official
count, no material changes were
found although a few irregulari-
ties were noted, but the result was
unchanged, and the question of
taking further action in the con-
test will undoubtedly be dropped.
BY agreement between the at
torneys the hearing on the manda-
mus proceedings to compel the
county officers elect of Perkins
county to open Offices at Bison was
continued until April 5th, when it
will be heard by Judge Rice.
