samples oftheir crops. Everywhere
in South Dakota crops are simply
magnificent. They are now beyond
all danger except that Of bail storms
or excessive rains. As neither Of
these calamities are likely to happen,
at least to any great extent, we may
write it down that Dakota this year
is to get the finest crops ever known
in its history, and the finest to be
found this season anywhere in the
United States.
There are already many agricul-
tural societies in the Territory and
and more Will be organized this fall.
Fairs will therefore be numerous.
Samples Of oil kinds of produce will
then be in demand. The only way
to get the best will be to select as
the harvest progresses. The Mil.
waukee Railroad Company is all
ready asking that these samples be
selected to be sent to the Eastern
State fairs and expositions. They
will want large quantities for this
purpose, and we presume the North
western and the other com panies
will follow the example Of the Mil
waukee people. The glorious har-
vest gathered this year by the hap
py granger of Dakota should be
published to the ends of the earth.
Aside from the various county fairs
at home and the State fairs abroad,
there is the New Orleans Worlds
Fair, elsewhere noticed. Samples
OF grain, vegetables, grasses, ETC.,
will be needed, and every farmer
owes it to the territory to contribute
to these objects. Select good sam
pies; put the grain in sheaves; pull
up by the roots the yield from
a single grain; label them, noting
carefully, the name and residence Of
the grower; the quantity offs the
grain; the number of grains from q
single seed; the length Of the straw;
the total and average yield. Note
also, ifyou please, the.price obtain-
ed and the profit gained. Fer the
present, lay these aside until they
are asked for; and you will then be
able to send them on their import
ant mission without any cost to
yourself. To the people Of the
East where this years crops are not
all that could be desired, these
silent witnesses will bear most con-
yincing testimony to.the fertility Of
Dakota's soil, and the propitious.
ness of her climate. Dakota has
cheap homes for millions Of people.
Let all help to make known these
magnificent opportunities.

Serious Charges Against His Moral Char

Serious Charges Against His Moral Char
acter.
Chicago special, 16: The Inter
Ocean tomorrow will say:
"a private letter from Buffalo
pastor to DR.. West, editor of the Ad-
vance, Of this city, warns him as an
editor, in common interests of relig-
con and of Christian morals, to alb
stain from any indorsment Of the
so-callcd "Grover" Cleveland's moral
social character for reasons which, if
true, should be made the subject Of
judicial investigation as promptly as
possible. The Inter Ocean is not
disposed to indorsea a campaign of
smut and SANDER, and does not in
tend to publish such charges against
Gov. Cleveland, unless they are
founded upon proper Investigations.
If the charges made by the Buffalo
minister are true, they can doubtless
be substantiated and will be. In
that case the best thing the man who
nominated Cleveland can do is to
insist on his declining the nomina-
ton. While we thus refuse to give
currency to the worst scandals
which are reported against the dem
ocratic candidate, it seems evident
that he is not the remarkably pure
man that has been claimed he was.
Where there is SO much smoke there
must be some fire, and we feel
securely confident from reports now
current that time is speedily APP
approaching, when Geo. w. Curtis,
the Harpers, Jones, Freeman, Clarke
and the rest will each feel like hir-
ing an able-bodied man to flagellate
them withan old-fashion blacksnake
rawhidc for ever having indorsed IN
any way Mr.. S. g. Cleveland"
The following il the letter referred
to, written by Rev. DR.. West, editor
OF the Advance. a Baptist paper
published at Chicago, the writer be-
ing pastor Of the Hudson street
Baptist church Of Buffalo, Cleve-
lands home:
BurrALo, N. Y, July 16. Dear
Advance: 1t may be to late to do
any good ard it may not be needed,
but | feel moved TO warn you
against saying too much to the credit
Of Grover Cleveland. He is a
libertine. No Christian should
condone his crimes SO far as to COM
mend his candidacy. About seven
years ago he seduced the head Of the
cloak department Of Flint 4 Kent .

the woman after the boy was born
