B2 Saturday, January 1 8, 1 988 the Rapid City Journal Legislators first week finish with flurry Fred Schaefer Election board lists people who have taken out petitions PINE RIDGE The Oglala Sioux Tribal Election Board has released the names of people who have taken out petitions for tribal office. According to Charlene Black Horse, secretary to the board, signatures on the petitions now are being checked for validity and tribal enrollment. And investigations are being conducted into each candidate's background to assure each qualifies as a candidate. Black Horse said the board probably will certify the signatures Jan. 21.

The election is scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 11. Black Horse also said an earlier election changes the constitution to increase from 500 to 1,000 people per representative. This is expected to reduce the number of representatives on the council, she said. "We're in the process of reapportionment.

The council on Jan. 21 is scheduled to announce the results of a census and the reapportionment will be based on that census. The census is being conducted through smaller district councils," she said. People who have taken out petitions: PrMldMt: Anthony whirlwind Hort. Newton Cummlngs (Incumbent), Thomat yellow Hawk, Hotoart Keith, Joe American Horee, John Steele, Louis Anthony Winters, Clyde Red Shirt, Tim Glago.

House Democratic Leader Lars Herseth of Houghton, a candidate for governor, criticized the part of the governor's speech that listed the state's accomplishments during Janklow's seven years in office. Janklow's address to a joint session of the Legislature was "a page out of Ronald Reagan's style by telling how good it is, but having no agenda for Improving the rural crisis," Herseth said. The Democratic legislative on Friday presented their response to the governor's State of the State address. Harding and Senate Democratic Leader Roger McKellips of Alcester agreed that lawmakers from both parties will be seeking answers to financial problems that plague farmers and small-town businesses. "I don't think there's anyone here that doesn't realize we're in trouble in rural South Dakota," McKellips said.

The problems with liability insurance, which has been cancelled or has skyrocketed in price for many government agencies and private businesses, is seen as a major issue facing the Legislature. But Miller said most lawmakers have no enthusiasm for bills dealing with liability insurance, and few have even prepared such legislation. deaths Marvin W. Shoesmith Funeral services for Marvin W.

The Cleaning Team I tSA'l ChetBrokaw PIERRE (AP) South Dakota lawmakers finished the first week of the 1986 session with a flurry Friday as they began passing minor bills and getting ready to tackle the more controversial measures. "The flow of bills has started out on a much more rapid pace than in past years, said Senate Republican Leader Homer Harding of Pierre, adding that lawmakers hope to handle simpler measures early so they have more time later to spend on big issues. "I think we're off to a roaring start," said House Republican Leader Walter Dale Miller of New Underwood. "I can't recall the first days (in previous sessions) that have been as populated with bills." The legislative session opened Tuesday, as Gov.
