Church and the Farmers.

Aberdeen News: The motive of the
love which Governor Church and his
democracy has for the farmers of
Dakota is beginning to show. Itself. 1t
is not to elect Harden, neither is it to
aid the farmers in securing legislature
which will right the wrongs, but it is
to secure the election of legislature
with which Governor Church will be
solid. The word has gone out from the
farmers, from the business men, from
the professional men, frora the lawyers
and from the doctors, from every class,
except the democratic politicians, that
Governor Church's power must be re-
duced, and q fight i'll this direction
was inaugurited. Governor Church
understood its full meaning, and to
checkmate the move the plan was for
malated to fuse-if possible--with
farmers. Harden'5 nomination was
the beginning of the movement, and
the plan is now becoming plainly
visible. 1t is u neat trap, but it is
doubtful ifit will spring just as the
governor hopes 1T will.

pearance of heart failure, at about $50,
there had been no premonitions of an un-
favorable change in his condition The
weather had been warmer than usual,
and the general was at times little
restless, but seemed generally bright and
cheerful. His voice was strong,
he took full supply of
nourishment, slept occasionally, as
usual, and the doctors and his family
were in hopeful spirits AT Z o'clock
Mrs. Sheridan and the doctors went to
the hotel for supper, and soon after their
return the usual preparations for the
might were made. AT about $3.50 Col
Sheridan said.."good night'' to his brother
and went to the hotel, there having
been through the day no signs of any un-
favorable change in his condition.
At $3.50 symptoms of heart failure
suddenly appeared, and Drs. O'Reilly
and Matthews, who We're with him at

jerauld County Messenger: There
are, however, good ANA sufficient reas-
ons for not voting for Mr.. Harden. Iu
the first place, he Goes not affiliate with
the right party and in case the rcpub-
licans nominate equally as good man
there is no reason why any republican
should vote for him. 1t is not the man
alone we vote for but the policy of the
party he represents. The party is
stronger than the man and usually con-
trolls him in all important matters af-
fecting the party's interest. Then, Mr.
Harden has not that Well balanced
mind that law makers ought to have.
lie is an EXTREMIST Of the most ultra
type. He sees nothing but the one
idea, anst he throws so strong light up
on that as to dazzle and bew i!.ier him
self. He would hr liable 10 20 to such
an extreme u; 10 make his legislative
