have confidence, aud we hut voice
public scutiment in saying, that all

city.

South Dakota Democratic
Chicago, Noy. 13.—A specal from
Picrrie, S. D., says:
‘■In ninny ol tho counties the elec
tions foil members ol the legislature
have been so close that the official can
vass has been necessary to determine
who was elected. Corrected returns
have been received from about all the
counties in doubt, and it is beyond
question that the legislature is lost in
both branches by the republicans.
The house will probably give four
majority for the democratic-independ
ent fusiomst9, whilo the senate will
have not less than three, giving them
seven majority on joint ballot to elect
a U. S. senator”

Raum and Lyman Must Go.
Washington, Nov. i 2—It is under
stood that Pension Commissioner
Raum and Civil Service Commissioner
Lyman will both soon be relieved
from duty and their successors ap
pointed. The administration would
like to avoid the necessity ol unload
ing these millstones, hut it cannot be
helped. Both have been condemned
by the public, and there is such a gen
eral demand for their scalps that they
will have to be 'aken.
And then the democrats of the sand
congress should probe the pension
department. They will find it rotten
to the core.
Put ’Em in the Gallery.
From the Macon Telegraph.
The Democratic side of the next
House will be awfully crowded, and we
venture to suggest that the Republi
cans make room by retiring to the gal
lery. That is just as convenient a
place as any from which to observe
the proceedings of Congress.
It is no longer the ‘‘field against
Gordon:” it is Pat Calhoun. Now
comes the tug of war. While, Gordon’s
friends have been fighting the field,
now they have only to meet-Mr,
Calhoun,

the caucus which endorsed Calhoun,
so says tho News. It is said that ten
proxies were also voted in the meeting,
making seventy four.
President Mitchell of the Senate
will preside over the joint session, on

McCunc’s candidate got the blue
ribbon. But w:ll he wear it next
Tuesday ? Aye, there’s the rub.
Every one will feel relieved when
the strain ot tho senatorial question is
over.
“Georgians” articles won him t
endorsement of the caucus.
It is now Gordon or Calhoun. Next
Tuesday will tell the tale.
General Gordon’s friends will stand
by him to tho last.
Dr. Koch’s new remedy might save

We don't- believe in tlpe “Hur

business. There's decu
more evidence of sincerity, in a
continued utterance of solid and
substantial facts, than there is
in the spasmodic outbursts of in
explicable liberality which has
been shoivn by some business
houses. This, however, is an
issue which must be decided^ by
the intelligence and discerning
judgment of the people who
have dollars to spend, and who
naturally expect to receive a fair
equivalent for their cash. We
