AT the meeting of millers of Mis-
souri, Kansas and Illinois in St.
Louis yesterday, Mr.. William Pol
lock, of this city, talked to a Re-
public reporter as follows: eve
met here to discuss measures of the
utmost importance to the interests
of the winter wheat millers. There
is a large South American trade
which by right belongs to the I'm
tied States, but which Europe sup
plies with -four. Now, we want to
corral that trade. The people il
general are all wrong when they
suspect US OF forminga a trust The
millers are the last men TO engineer
a scheme of that sort. The spring
wheat millers of the North have
consulted together and with US
what we want now is concerted &C
| ton for the South American trade
We may call upon Congress II
help us.

Hero ia the kind Of doctrine that

Here is the kind Of doctrine that
the West wants, an excerpt from o
long resolution introduced in congress
by Senator Voorhees,;
sit declared all existing tariff taxes
on foreign merchandise should be so
revised, repealed or ainmended as
provided: First, for the collection
of a sufficient amount of e to
pay the expenses of the government,
economically administered; principal
and interest of public debt as they
fall due aad a liberal pension approp-
ration but not adollar more. Second
for the taxation of all articles of lux
ury at the highest practicable rate,
and for the reduction Of taxes on all
necessaries of civilized life, to the
lowest possible rate, consistent with
the tariff for nothing but revenue.
Third for the curtailment and over
throw, as far as possible, of all mon
opclies in trade by the enlargement
Of the free list to the full extent that
the same can be done without impair
ing and eudangering the necessary
revenues OF the government, having
in view at all times and under all cir

with the people of foreign countries
and the establishment of equal and
exact justice amongst IL own citizens
with exclusive privileges to none"

Some OF the North Dakota papers
which have all along opposed prohibit
tion are How calling loudly for the most
radical legislation to enforce it. Their
zeal is open to suspicion. Prohibition
in Iowa has reached its present emhar-
raising condition because of too much
and too drastic legislation. The true
friends of the measure IN both South and
Nerth Dakota should insist on such laws
as con be enfereed-laws which are
aimed at the open saloon as a political

Mitchell Republican,
Say, what's the matter with you,
anyway, Mr.. Republican; what do
you want? wasn't You one of those
fellows that advocated constitutional
prohibition for South Dakota? Say,
do you know what that prohibition
clause of the constitution was, or
don't you? Don't you know that
there isn't a word in it about the
"open saloon"-or any other saloon9
Then Whist are driving at2 Don't
you know that the constitution of the
state Of South Dakota as adopted on
the first day Of last October expressly
prohibits the manufacture and sale of
intoxicating liquors g a beverage.
That's all there is Of it. Its very
plain. Its good straight English.
Because some newspapers want the
constitution enforced "their zeal is
open to suspicion" eh? We repeat,
what do you wantY Oh, you want
thu saloons shut up, but the case of
beer business, the baskets of cham
