The Sioux City Tribune says,
."The people are tired Of this cry
for more revenue to satisfy the in
creasing demands Of extravaganza
on the part of the national govern
ment. ~ The estimate for the
years general appropriations is
1886, 900, 900. This is more than
twice the appropriation Of twelve
years ago which was $415, 900, 900. /"
In twelve years the national ap-
preparations have doubled, and
the Tribune calls this "extrava-
gance." The appropriations in
South Dakota have more than
doubled in the past four years,
and the Tribune defends this in
crease and calls it reform. .

In March, 1909, R. O. Richards

Hon. r. 8. Vessey,

Sir:
This is to advise you that I am
constrained to say to you, that
no longer can cooperate with you
politically.
The reasons sor this will no doubt
be apparent to you, as I made it
plain to you when I last saw you
at Pierre that you had something
to perform rs chief executive OF
this state besides making few
appointments and occupying the
governors chair, and that plat
form measures were suffering and
would come through crippled un-

ment which led to your nomina-
tion and election cost in way of
personal sacrifices to our friends
for the past three years, it is with
sincere regret that [ admit two
years lost, and the opportunity of
your administration wasted.
Personally you have my good
will, but as an executive | cannot
support you. Truly,
(Signed)-R. O. Richards.

The Mitchell Clarion says that
"the candidates for congress have
seen the folly of more than two en-
tering the race and it is now ap-
parently settled that Hon. Thos.
Thorson of Canton and Hon. John
F. Schrader of Rapid City are to
be the candidates." From this we
judge that the executioner's ak has
already fallen upon the neck of
Hon. G. 81. Dillon of Yankton

ed by that company between 1898
and 1907.
The official announcement of the
refund, as stated by Henry L. Slim
son and Winfred r. Dennison, the
governments special counsel in the
customs cases involving the under
weighing of sugar, is as follows:
I'm July last Messrs. Stimson and
Dennison, as special counsel for the
government, commenced an investi-
cation as to the weights on which
duties were paid on sugar landed on
the docks of the sugar refineries of
the National Sugar Refining Com
pany, of New Jersey, at the port of
New York.
That company voluntarily gave
them access to its books and thor
ough investigation was made of
those books and of the books of the
constituent companies and of the
company's purchasing agents and of
the custom-house records. AS a re-
suit it was ascertained that ther had
been a shortage in the payment Of
duties on importation of sugar made
by representatives of that company
and its predecessor between 1898,
when the refineries began business,
and the end of 1907, amounting to
$604, ,304.37. This storage was re-
ported to the officers of the COM
pany, and as soon as they had verified
the governments figures they volun-
tarily offered 10 pay this sum with
out suit into the treasury of the
United States, and to make good the
offer they deposited are full sum in
cash.
This payment has been accepted
by the Secretary of the Treasury,
with the concurrence of the Attorney
General and on the recommendation
of the solicitor of the Treasury an
the. special counsel for the govern
ment.
This settlement in no wise affects
the criminal prosecution of any in
dividuals who may be shown to have
been responsible for any criminal
frauds"
James r. Post. president of the

refused to discuss the situation in
which his company found itself, nor

drowned.
The British steamer Hathumet

to leave many persons aboard whom
it was impossible to rescue.
The stranded steamer Lima Is a
British vessel owned in Liverpool
and plying between that port and
the ports of South America. She was
last reported as sailing from Bahia
Blanca, Argentina, on January 26
and was on her way to Chilean and
Peruvian ports.
The Lima is 401 feet long, regis
ters 3,115 tons, and was built in
Glasgow in 1907.
The place where the steamer was
wrecked is probably Huamblad Pas
sage, located between the south shore
of San Pedro Island and Chloe. 1t
is a narrow passage, full of dam
gers and very difficult navigation.
Huambling Rocks, two in number and
