Emery Cases Still On.

The Emery cases that have been
on trial for several days past are still
in progress and it Is probable that the
plaintiff will complete its side by the
last of the week. The extent of the
defense may prolong the case consid-
erably. The cases have been in
the court for some two years and at
the outset involved some seventy-five
cars of peaches from Texas and Ark
ansas. The Texas cases were tried
last year before Judge Vermilion and
the Arkansas cases are now in pro-
gress. Damages due to improper icing
of the cars is claimed by the plaintiff
against several railroads.

Special Session May Amend South
Dakota Primary.

suance of a call by Governor +. NJ
Byrne. fixing Feb. s as the date for
the convening of a special session of
the legislature, bears out predictions
that such a session would be called
AS the most conservative estimate
of the cost of a special session is
only from $4,000 to $4,000. the special
session was considered the best meth
cd Of strengthening out the difficulty
which has confronted Republicans Of
South Dakota for several weeks.
Had special primary election been
held in April the regular primary cleo
tion would also have had to be held on
June 6, at a cost equal to the special.
The calling Of the special session of
the legislature and the changing of
the primary election date to April or
May will make but one primary cleo
ton necessary, for delegates to the
national convention can be elected
and candidates can be nominated by
the different parties at the same time.

know to be untrue, was made to injure
England in the eyes of neutrals

we hear that insiduous and untrue re-
