STRENUOUS Fight
DEMOCRATS OUT TO WIN POSI-.
TIONS OF GOVERNOR AND
u. $. SENATOR.

Pierre. Oct. 2S.-That the demo-
Gratis intend to make the last possible
effort to capture the senatorship and
governor I'm the time they yet have
between now and the Sd of Novem-
Der, appears from their activity in
covering the state with speakers, is
the view of a prominent republican
OF h state who was in this city to-
day. He says they are pushing their
speaking campaign, with not only
state speakers, but with national
speakers all over the state from now
until election day, but that the prin-
cipal trouble appears to get the peo-
pie enthused to the same pitch as
that of the speakers, or in fact to get
them enthused far enough to come to
the meetings.
Estimates of the total vote cast in
the state for the coming election have
a rather wide range, from that of the
normal vote of about 10000 down
to less than 10000 and the real num-
Der OF votes which come are likely
to have an effect upon the outcome
on the Sd. All parties express a hope
of getting out the vote, which In 9TH
er words appears to mean that they
are not certain hat the voters will
come out, and as all are equally APP
prehensive, the probabilities are that
the lack will touch all about the
same, and the only difference be-
tween a heavy and a light vote will
be in the totals, with the ratio of loss
about equally divided among the diff
ferent parties.
The whole of the fight politically
in the state centers on the positions
of United States senator and govern
or, the rest of the ticket being con-
coded as republican unless there
should be a general political revolu-
ton between this and election day,
and while all the efforts are being
turned upon these two positions, the
chances from all which can be gath
cred here both from the party head
quarters and from outside sources,
indicate that the chances are all for
a complete republican victory, re-
CARELESS of claims of gains on the
part of the democrats or the indie
pendent candidates.
But with all the claims on the part
of either or all of the party organiza-
tions, none of them are taking any
thing for granted, and the candidates
and party leaders will be active from
this time on, with their main efforts
centered in getting the people to
come out on election day.
The vote will probably be heavy In
the counties in which there are coun.
ty seat contests. or county division
projects up, and in a few Others
where the issue is that of bonding
for some one purpose or another, but
outside of those the vote shows indi-
cations of being light.

KIRBY MUST A
For Hunting Without License i'm
Hamlin County.

Sioux Falls, Oct. 28.-Attorney
Joe Kirby of this city will have to
pay a fine which was imposed on him
by a jury in Hamlin county.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Kirby questioned the constitutional
ity of the state game law and went
into the fields to hunt without COM
plying with the law in regard to TAX
ing out a license. Mr.. Kirby was ar
rested and after some delay was tried
and convicted in the circuit court of
Hamlin county.
An appeal from the finding of the
court vas taken to the state supreme
court, and now-that body has handed
down a decision written by Judge j.
III. Gates, formerly of this city, which
to a certain extent modifes the find
ing of the lower court, but refused
the plaintiff a new trial.

BIG RISKS HELD HERE.
New York Insuranc. Companies Hit
Hard by salem Fire.

Nearly all the big Are insurance COM
panies in this city did business in Salem.
Mass. and their chief adJusters were
busy yesterday trying to get line on
their losses. Only few were able to
obtain definite estimates because OF the
irregularity OF the burned area. II will
take day or two. It was said. TO pre-
pare maps showing the burned territory.
Agents OF the companies have been
rushed from all sections OF New England
TO the stricken city. Some OF the COM
panles have sent special agents from the
home Offices here. Only few OF these
agents were heard from yesterday. and
their estimates were admittedly merely
preliminary.
The Home Insurance Company OF sc
Cedar street is one OF those heavily in
volved. Chief Adjuster Danent said that
up to $3.50 o'clock he had received no es
innate OF the companys losses. The Con-
tinental Insurance Company of so Maiden
lane. which owns half interest In the
Fidelity Underwriters Company. received
no estimate. II was said that $1,000
would cover the losses OF the German
American Insurance Company, ana spe-
cial agent OF the Queens Insurance Com
pany OF 81 william street telephoned late
| in the afternoon that 100000 would
cover its losses.
The general impression prevailed among
the insurance men that s6.000,000 was an
ample estimate for the property loss In
| Salem.
The estimate that the total loss would
run as high as s20.0o0,000 was said TO be
entirely too high. Careful estimates
placed the property loss at not more than
81 900. 600. with the loss to the insur-
ance companies OF not more than $4,000
| 600 or 5000, 900.
