F. E. VanSchaick, appointed bill clerk in tbe sfate senate, is a nephew of F. R. VanSlyke, clerk of the courts for Lake county.

Mr. VanSchaik is a resident of Roberts county and was recx-iimended for the place he occupies by the legislative members of that county. 1 (r the pjist two months, however, 1-e, with his wife, has been sojourning in Madison occupying rooms in O. E. Stearns' residence, while Mr.

Hargrove O'Dowd, the cigar manufacturers and wholesale dealers, are busily engaged placing tueir furniture and fixtures and unloading unmanufactured stock for their factory in McKinnon block, West Fifth street. Their force of seven cigar makers will arrive this week, ready for work next Monday morning. Tneir payroll will exceed a week at home, which will be an important addition to tue commercial buisness of Madison.

Establishments of thi3 kind, where men of family are employed, are the means of building up cities, and Madison is certainly in luck to have Messrs. Hargrove O'Dowd locate factory in this city. P. F. Sherman in an interview with the Sioux Falls Press stated that "we fire now closing the contract with the Caruegie steel works at Pittsburg for enough steel rails of the 60 pound style to lay track upon thirty miles of the extension north from Rutland of the South Dakota Central railway.

I have also ordered the ties, and I found in St. Paul that ties are 30 per cent higher in price than they were twelve months ago. I am not announcing where the road will go from Rutland," said Mr. Sherman. "In St.

The fact that the insurgent or reform faction of the repot lican party has assumed control of the state for the coming two years, aud has a good working majority in each brauch of the legisla ture, makes the session of nnusaul political importance. The insurgent or dominent faction of the republican party stands pledged to give the people of the state various reform mesauros. One of the mo-ft important ot' these measures is a primary election law, this having been one of tbe principal issues upon which tho insurgent republicans wrested control of the state from tho stalwart faction, which heretofore, ever since statehood and with the exception of the time the populists and democrats had control of tne state gov ernment, has had charge of tbe political affairs of the state. The democratic members of the legislature are pledged by their state platfoim to the enactment of a primary election law and other reform measures, and doubtless will support practically all of the reform measures which are introduced by the insurgent republicans. The stalwart republicans are opposed to the enactment of a primary election law, preferring that the present "honest caucus law" be retained and thnt future elections and caucuses be held undei its provisions.

The caucus law was enacted as a substitute by the stalwart majority in the legislature two years ago when the demand for the enactment of a primary election law became so pronounced on the part of the insurgent wing of the party that it was found necessary to pass some sort of an election law to appease those who were insisting upon a change. It is safe to say that the stalwart members of the legislature, notwithstanding that they compose only a small minority, will leave no stone unturned to defeat, if possible, the enactment of a primary election law. The tight two years hence, when a succepsnr to United States Senator Kittredge is to be elected, is the chief reason why the sal warts wish no change made in the election law of the state. It is thought they will stand a better opportunity to regain control of the state under the present election law than wohld be the case should a primary election law be enacted.

In every room there is a small closet with two doors.

One opens Into the room and the other on the hall. To this outside door the valet possesses the key. The inside door Is locked by the guest after he has put his clothes Into the little closet In order to have them pressed and cleaned before tbe next morning. "I know the house Is responsible for the clothes if they are lost," said one guest who had refused to avail himself of the new convenience, "but It makes a man very uncomfortable to feel that ho has locked his clothes out and that another has a key to them. Then the fellow with only one suit would have to wait a long time before the proprietor sent out to buy him another." our for residsnee purposes tor sale, lift to Sheridi MB THE GAME.

Killing of Primary Election Petition and What Followed. The Sunday edition of tbe Minneapolis Journal contained a full page nitsory of South Dakota polities, past present, from which the following in an extract: From bis law office at Huron, Coe I. Crawford looked out upon South Dakota and saw that it was not getting a fair deal. The settlers were struggling for their rights, but they were everywhere throttled by coriorations and by the connivance of their officials with those corporations. Crawfoid went out and spoke to the people.

He did not mince matters. Conceded the best stump speaker in the state, he is equal ly tho man of frankness. He declared what he believed to be the matter with the state, with the party, with politics. It was that all were ring ruled, that tho state conventions were no longer representative of the people. He de manded a primary law that would put nominations in the hands of tho people and en that platform ho made a cam paign.

"You know what nappened," he said to me, "That state convention simply chewed us up." But the insurgents, as they began to be called, were not chewed so badly that they couldn't get together. They supported tho machine ticket and the day after election began their work over again. They carried up to the legisslature a petition fot the sub of a primary law to tbe people. The legislature, under tbe tutelage of Kittredge, picked flaws in the petition. It was not gotten up according to law.

For instance, there were sheets which at the top gave the name of a petitroner and below more names with ditto marks under the town! It was plain enough that all the men whose names were on the sheet lived in the same town and the significance of the ditto mark was well enough known. But the machine quibbled. It was not according to law. They didn't know of any such town in South Dakota as 'Ditto." The petition was referred to the attorney general, Philo Hall. He nad been elected ly the machine, but had shown signs of independence.

Tbe machine, however, could not reject tbe potition without a reference to the law officer of tbe state so it had to trust him. Mr. Hall sent in an opinion that the potition was perfectly regular and legal. The machine had to reject on its own motion. This was impossible of accomplishment iu the but the senate! Machines always have mysterious influence over senates.

The senate rejected the petition by a majority of two tc three. It is said that even this was not acomplished without a quid pro quo. There is a story told that one member did not vote for the rejection until a commission to a fed eral office had been laid on his desk. Others got promises of advancement in state if nothing more substantial. There was joy in both camps when the petition was swept into the waste basket.

Kittredge and force had prevailed and there was joy over the slaughter of "populism." But the insurgents were no less loud in their ea Lunations. Had not the machine furnished them an issue 'I Had it not played into their hands? Had it not solidified them even as parliament solidified the colonists fjr war, when it rejected their humble petition for redress of grievances? From that day South Dakota rang with the pleas of the insurgent for home rule. The farmers were aroused. The merchants and salaried men were interested when the time came arouod for another state campaign tbe machine was swept from it feet. Kittredge lost control ot his owu countv, the largest in the state An issue had been made of tbe return to the senate of Gamble.

Tne insurgents took up his cause, and when convention met, Crawford controlled it by 400 votes. Gamble was indorsed and tne insurgents named the whole state ticket. THAWIASE. Wi 6me On for Hearing Sooft Interesting Developments. New Yoctr, Jan.

am announcement made it is practically tiled in the district attorney's office just, what will be done by the pro edition in presenting its case against Harry K. Thaw for the murder of Stan ford White. From the prosecution's standpoint the trial will be a short one. About five witnesses will be examined in presenting the direct case. These witnesses wi 11 tell of the shooting and the events that happened on the Madison Square roof garden.

It should not take more than a few hours, it'is said, for the prosecution to put in its entire direct case. It will be a simple story of the killing, showing that White was shot at a table while watching tho performance, without any chance of defending himself. The idea is to have the defense explain the kill ing. There have been many stories printed giving conjectures as to what tbe defense will be, but Thaw's counsel have made no statement. Unless there is a change in the ent plans the crucial part of the trial will come in the rebuttal.

For that' preparations have been made by tho district attorney's office. Assistant District Attorney Gatvin who has bad charge of the Thaw case, has left nothing undone to iun down every story and rumor, no matter how improbable it appeared on its face. As a result there has been an accumulation of evidence which may surprise the District Attorney Jeerome will havo harge of the trial, assisted by Mr. Garvin. There have been two important velopments in Thaw case, tbe first showing that Florence Evelyn Nesbit Thaw and her 3-outhfnl appearing mother, Mrs.

Charles J. Hohnan, really estranged, and tbe second that a final effort is to be made to induce Thaw to consent to a ploa of insanity. It was also learned that Mrs. Holman entertains a strong hatred for tbe elder Mrs. Thaw, whose haughtiness is the real cause of tho estrangement between Evelyn Nesbit Thaw and her mother.

Mrs. William Thaw was stoutly opposed to the marriage of her son and the former chorus girl, but the young, man was set on it, and, as usual had bis own way where his mother concerned. Mrs. Thaw gave her consent, but with the proviso that Evelyn Nesbit should never speak to or communiciate with her own family again. Evelyn Nesbit accepted the condition.

Hating Harry Thaw, anyhow, because of his treatment of her and her daughter abroad. Mrs. Holman was infuriated at the insult offered by her own daughter. yonr whole bod jr makes rich red blood. Drives out impurities that have collected during the winter.
