Whereas, 1t is the avowed policy
of the Democratic party to reduce the

our most important industry; there
fore,
BE IT RESOLVED, That we are un
alterably opposed to any reduction o
the import duties upon the product o
silver lead and copper mines; ant
that any change of existing laws tina
shall check or hinder the prosecution
and growth of this industry would b
unwise and unjust; and, therefore
we d.nounce the action of the Demo

Endorsement of the Mills bill.

Hattering in the following:
The people OF Dakota have made no
appeal to the world for aid, and in spite
OF their Adyersities they go on building
schools and churches and building up
their communities as though they we're
blessed with unbroken prosperity. Their
foy.itude and courage must command

Why, bless your soul, MIR. Free Press,
there is nothing remarkable -nvS. the
building of communities, churches end

such prosperity as would make the

For Bullaipg the Extension OF the
Manitoba Railroad.
Sioux Falls Press: With the approach
OF spring appear the manufactured tele-
grams relative to railroad extensions.
Sioux Falls being the center OF all rail-
road building in Dakota, towns aspiring
for connection with some of the lines
send out periodically kilograms to the
effect that lit is reliably reported con-
tracts have bsen let for grading this or
thatroad TO this and that own aud work
will commence early in the spring
Only the other day Yankton had such a
telegram the pnrport OF which said con-
tracts had been let for grading the DI-
luth from Sioux Falls to Yankton. All
this news is bosh. Those familiar with
railroad building know that contracts
for grading cannot be let until o survey
ID made and grade established. Graders
must savs profles TO figure from and
as none have yet been made contraots Of
course cannot be let.
Jones Bros, the heaviest graders OF
the Duluth are quartered in this CITY
and only two or three days ego one O
them was in the chief engineers Office

figuring up work that had already been
eompistsaa. Nj. JJones ssyys nothing WAL
intimated to him about grading beyond
tthia city for the Duluth. As these gem
tlemen have been with the Manitoba foi
seyeral years 1t is quite likely the com.
pany would let themtknow when figures
are wanted on grading work.
It Is altogether probable railroad
building will commence early in tn
spring, but il won't until surveys are
made, and contracts will not be let unit
then. All stories TO the contrary ar
mere twaddle and ell they amount to
the little boom they give q town. Th
Press is SO situated that it IAN get relia
Bile railroad news as soon as il is lead
for the public, and it 10 pretty safe TO SO,
that until statements appear in The Pres
on future work, not much credence ca
be put in them. There 10 no use OF town
gett;ng excited. There is yet plenty {
time and no one knows where ightnin
