TO LAWRENCE COUNTY REPUBLICANS.
The territorial republican convention
which met at Watertown last month, af-
tier thorough canvass Of all evidence
land inquiry into the status Of affairs in
|ttis county, seated the delegation head-
|eGBY Hon. g. G. Moody. This gives
that delegation the recognition Of the re-
publican party OF Dakota. They are
considered by that party as the repre-
sentatives Of republication in Lawrence
county. This, beyond all cavil, legahzes
everything they have done in the past.
It legalzes the call issued by j. w.
Freeman and J. L. Denman for county
convention to be held September % at
Spearfish,. TO nominate county ofieess
and elect Delegates to the district conven-

holding so-called republican conven-
ton on September is, notwithstanding
the fact that they are not recognized as

notion they have placed themselves out
side the pale and canyot honestly be
countenanced by true republicans They
intend to rule or ruin- Bhey intend to-
enforce recognition or turn the grand cid
republican county of Lawrence over to
the democratic party.
It behooyes every. loyal republican TO
be on his guard, watching closely for
any advance OF the foe. Republicans
must not be caught mapping by them.

subject "lhe Beauty and GLORY OF
Serving Others. lic said that the
greatest men who bad ever lived had
served. and that notwithstanding Our
boosted supremacy overnature, man was
restrained ON all sides by moral and
physical laws. The desire for fame,
SAID he, is a noble aspiration and one
which hope Will inspire the young men
of the South. However much We
mourn over the degeneration OF the
times. he believed TINT there were some
as true and genuine patriots in the
halls of legislation as ever lived during
the classic republics, and that Grover
Cleveland was the truest patriot that
had occupied tho presidential cholr for
many year. The lecture was very elo-
queut and was "a strong eXnortaiion to

is noble.

A very fine piece of forgery, apparently
done in Hartford, Conn, was developed
here to-day. 1t was certified check for
81 500. drawn on Messrs. josiah Morris

NJ Miner. It was endorsed by Miner
to Gallup 4 Metzger, and by them
presumably deposited with the City

The losers. probably being in Hartford,
were the endorsers. The cleyerness Of
the forgery consists in the way 1t Is GER
titled, which is done with rubber

backed with a metal perforating stamp
