A oot^ervHtive writer of acknowledged
ability takinu his inforniHtioii fromSpau
lsh army journals says that the artuy of
Spam consists of three classes—a per
manent army of *U,m mec. an active
reserve army of and a second or
sedentary reserve of over 1,000,000. All
Spaniards enter the permanent artuy or
tne first reserve at l'. and at the age of
'2~»
K'oe8 into the second reserve where they
are subject to call case of war and aft
er conscription. The tirst reserves are
used for coast guards, custom inspectors
and for police duty. There have been

years 21'MXM) Spanish soldiers. Accord
ing to Spanish onlitary statements there

there were reported «.i Spanish sold

which are the militia of Cuba, or a total

effective army or force uti paper of 120.-
Hut even Spanish military reports
are not very reliable. There is no regu
ir pay department in the Spanish
army. The soldier receives his miser
able stipend of three or four dollars per
month from his regimental officers. The
colonel of a regiment sends in a requisi
tion at the beginning of each month for
pay for so many men and he makes the
pay roll as long as possible. \Vh»-n th»

31. i- i the
Adjutant lieneral Humphey of South
Dakota, speaking regard to this state's
juota »f volunteers under the presi
dent's second call for 70,000 mt-n sajs:
"There seems to be a false impression
both as to the call and South Dakota's
,uota. The object of the call as we un
derstand it, is to fill the existing regi
ments organized under the tirst call to
tbe maiiurn limit of the regular army of
l"-5 officers and men to company. South
Dakota furnished more than twice her
true apportionment under the call for
l"i"»,U0o, and no quota is at all likely
to be assigned to this state under the
present call for 75,000. The newspaper
reports that the South Dakota quota
tinder the call will be 1,100 is absurd.
Tne just apportionment for South Da
kota under the call for 125.000 was only
men, and in a call for an additional
7 ,o00 would be only 405, making a total
(if l.o.'io men under both calls. The fact
bat South Dakota has already furnished
more than 1,400 volunteers makes it
oasy to {perceive the absurdity of the
newspaper quota assigned to us. Anj
further trouble and expense incurred in
organizing companies is therefore un
warranted till such time as official auth
ority has been given us for the organiz
ation of another regiment. of which due
notice will be given."
Immediately following the decision of
the republican state central committee
that the convention would be held in
Mitchell, Kirk Phillips, state treasurer,
and A. O. Ringsrud engaged headquar
ters at Mitoheli which is taken as a good
index that a warm content will be put up
by these two gentlemen for the norain

dealer in the city. Our good luck in making a clean sale of
18V7 stock gives us an advantage in handling the 1898 designs,
unincumbered by old styles which dealers are always anxious to
get rid of first, before they get entirely out of date. Often buy

ed favorably on the nomination of Ho

the land office at Watertowu, S. D. He
will only hold office during the absence
of Lee Stover, recently appointed re

South Dakota volunteer regiment.
Sioux Falls Press, 1: It is a fact/Hot
understood by all that Sioux Falls is a
regular recruiting station, aud that un
less other arrangements are made all
South Dakota recruits w II be ren
dezvoused here. And the chances are
that on account of the superior accom
modations the location will not be
changed. A telegram was yesterday re
ceived by Mayor Lien from Governor
Andrew E. Lee to place a watchman in
charge of the camp
on the east side, re
cently left by the First regiment, and
maintain it intact at the expense of the
stwte until further orders. This is good
proof that Camp Dewey will be the
place of moblization of the troops re

they are ready to go to the frout no
orders were received for the movement
