on the race for the various state OF.
fees, but the indications are that Lee
Cruce has been nominated by the dem
ocrats BY a small majority. and Joe
AIcNeal seems to have the lead for the
republican nomination.
The unusually heavy vote and the
somewhat cumbersome ballot has
made impossible to get at the figures
even In this town and county. The
election board has been unable to cam
vass the results except for governor,
congressman, the grandfather clause
and the county tickets. Although
there are two precincts missing from
the official returns, unofficial returns
have been received to insure the nom
ination Of the above named county tic
ket.
There were indeed some surprises
IN the county race notably that of Lee
r. Mitchell and D. B. Stntsman for
district clerk in which the latter was
defeated by Mitchell to whom many
democrats had refused to concede even
a chance for the nomination. BY a
clean campaign. however, young Nit
chell defeated one Of the cleanest men
and best democrats in the county. An
other feature was the close race be-
tween ". I. Trott and 2. N William
son, the present incumbent, for regis.
ter Of deeds. Williamson won BY q
small majority.
The only two democratic candidates
who had a.walkaway, were Carey CaId.

or two Othcrt. In any event, the elt-
uation IS an unheard OF one in South
Dakota legislatures, though ordinarily
farmers and business men are rage
ly in control of both bodies, but I'M
previous sessions it has not been dix
fcult to fill the judiciary committee
from the legal fraternity.
Whiting of W]oonsocket is serving
his second term. and has been u5e1ul
in affairs for many years. He was
a member of the constitutional con
~vention of 1883. He is especially
useful in county affairs and riminal
law procedure.
Erickson of Miner. is an enthusiast
in the matter of state conducted In
surance. and in the last session had
a well-thought-out bill which he got
along to serious consideration in COM
mittee of the whole. He will, 1t ls I'M
derstood. again age his project upon
the coming session.
Robert F. Kerr of Brookings Is n
of South Dakota's most useful men.
He came to the territory in the early
sos, as professor of history and po-
litiCal in the state college
and continued as an Indispensable
adjunct of that institution until he re-
signed to become private secretary TO
Governor Elrod, who's college men
tor he had been back in Indiana.
Since leaving the governors office ne
has been editor of the Minnesota and
Dakota Farmer, recently sold to the
Myrick syndicate. Kerr Is an en-
%cyclopedia of information and pos
sesses initiative and conservative WIS
dom. With Bigelow of Lawrence, he
will be looked to for assistance In all
matters pertaining to public
ton.
Browne of Brown. had legislative
experience in Kansas before coming
to South Dakota. He is elected for his
fifth term here, in two of which he
served as speaker, without exciting
a word of criticism from any source.
He is of conservative tendencies, a
polished speaker, who exercises his
capacity in that line only frequently
enough to be always Interesting. He
possesses a vein of dry humor. which
is manifested in many of his ad-
>~u nd Elote aS&l once rs a
sent a bill to deserved defeat by the
use of a bit of aptly put ridicule.
Ziebach of Buffalo is coming for
his second term. The name of Zie-
bach is a familiar one in Dakota az
fairs, the IatneT OIL Tie lepieseLIa'A'e
having come into the territory in June
1861, when he established the first
newspaper at Yankton, which still
continues in the Press and Dakotan.
He served in several legislatures, and
during the war of the outbreak, when
the federal officials fed from the terri
tory. Ziebach was chosen captain OF
the volunteer militia that fortified
iYankton, and, as he exercised su-
preme power there, was dubbed gov
ernor, a title he wears with honor to
this day.

Safe and Sane Referending

Mitchell-A movement has recently
been started in this section of the
state to raise the percentage of vot-
ers who are required to sign a petit
ton requesting the referring of a state
law back to the people. Since the re-
tent election there has been strong
feeling aroused that it should be more
difficult to secure the ~refe-ending of
laws which have been passed by the
legislature. Under the present law
5 per cent of the voters only is nee
essary to have a law turned lack. 1t
is the intention to present a measure
to the legislature at the coming ses-
sion requiring that all petitions for
regferring laws must Re backed up
with the signatures of 25 per cent OF
the voters OF the state. This figure
may be too high. and the legislature
may cut it down to some extent, but a
strong effort will be made by the leg
islators from this section to rave the
3 per sent raised to a much higher
figure.
