A dispatch from Hot Springs , S. D. , to W. A. Kimbell from John Stetter states that 4 'Ireland layeddown in fourth round. " Hamp Ireland , the champion of the 25th Infantry , had a bout with Tom Kinsley at Hot Springs Mon day night which was to have been a ten round contest. Ireland seems to have met his Waterloo as the decision went to Kinsley in the 4th round when Ireland xwas counted out while down , Col.

C. Brown , of Keya Paha county. Mr. Bresco is a well known stockman and no one says any harm of him. We do not think he would vote against lower f rieght rates even if he had to vote with the democrats and populists and most likely he would use his influence to make the railroads of the state pay their just proportion of taxes unless he was inveigled into the contrary course by a scheme , but woulfl he vote fpr AY.
