EDITOR CoUMER.-Some fellow
without the fear Of God, the law OF
man, sent me q printed paper, enti-
tied 1.-THE fruits Of prohibition" II
was q bastard publication, no name
signed to it, and put in tho mail at
. railway station 80 that no person
could tell whore it came from. The
FIRST proposition was, taxes have in.
creased in Sioux City 113 per cent
since prohibition went into effect.
We were satisfied this was untrue and
went to the Treasurer's Office in
Sioux City for information. The
treasurer had gone home but We
found Sheriff Magee. We asked
the gentleman il the statement was
true. He replied emphatically that
it was not true. The sheriff further
stated that soon after the prohibi.
ton Law took effect it became neces.
sary to move several scores OF aban.
doned women oversto CoviDgton OF
elsewhere and some twenty gamb-
ling establishments, for says he
this class Of people follow in the
wake Of the saloon. The saloon
brings in . nice class Of people, you
see, fine companions for our boys
and girls. These people died hard
and nothing but the strong arm OF
the law could cope with them, but
they were removed. This was ex-
pensive but now, Mr.. Magee says, he
can begin to see the good results OF
the prohibition law. Several depu-
ties have been discharged, Not q
murder has been committed in
Sioux City since the saloon has been
removed, while shooting scrapes are
frequent in Coyington. Mr.. Magee
is q partner in the grocery business
in Sioux City and he says he can
see the good effects Of the law in
his trade. Men who used to be
slow pay or no pay At all are now
prompt payers. The next two
propositions on this lying sheet
we're that taxes had increased in
Council Bluffs and Burlington. The
fact 10 these places have SCORES Of
saloons and have made no preten.
sion toward obeying the prohibito-
ry law, to their shame be t said, 30
that the three firSt propositions are
absolutely false, and no doubt the
entire paper 10 equally false. But
these are the tactics Of the endorsers
Of the open saloon. Away with this
enemy of American civilization!
Fathers, Mothers, Sons and Daugh-
ters, awake to the importance Of
this great issue. x.

IN. A. KIRK, the republican
nominee for county judge is Justly
entitled to the support Of everyre-
publican in the county. His OPP
ponent on the peoples ticket,
Judge Mangan, was nominated BY
the republicans Of the county
three years ago, t~riumphaltly
elected, and served his full tiEn
of three years and we must ny
with credit to himself. Mr.. Kirk
was nominated last year BY the
republicans and elected for two
years, but owing to the fact that
our territory is soon to become a
state, he found it necessary to seek
another nomination and 20 Through
another canvass for an election in
order to make out his two years
service. He has occupied the po-
sition less than nine months, but
during that time has proven him
self to be a most capable and eff
cient officer, and it is no more
than justice that he should be
elected now to complete the two
years service.

two great parties il such that there

alliance must expect to obtain legis-
latlve relief within the republican
party.
At the alliance convention held at
Huron last June, It was wisely de-
cided that our work should be done
within tho respective parties, and
the results Of last weeks republican
state convention must be in every
way satisfactory to healliance man.
The number Of alliance men who
were present as members Of the con-
showed that the preliminary work
had been we'll done, and the fact
was Quickly recognized that the
farmers had possession ofthe "band
wagon" The regular politician can
easily accept the trend Of events and
hence the most harmonious conven-
ton ever held in Dakota. Seven
OF tho nominations were made BY
reclamation, while the sharp contest
made for the other positions was due
TO the fact that the several candi-
dates we're presented by the farmers
~ their friends and q lair FREQ con.
test WAS allowed.
The alliance had engaged the G.
A. r. hall and Immediately conn
mcnoed holding caucusses, which q
each session were we'll attended. "A
committee WAS selected TO confer
with the leading republicans, and it
ID fair to state that the justness Of
tina demands ofthe farmers was full
II recognised and their demand
readily and heartily endorsed. BY
this means the temporary ofganixa-
ton was placed in their hands dis
regarding tho claims Of any candle
dats, and ia the interests OF : fair
contest. This concession placed the
committees Id tho hands Of our
friends, and to il ID largely due the
admirable. platform adopted. :
This unanimity resulted IN so
strong ! combination Of the farmers
that their demand for Picker and
Clifford = congressman was agreed
70. Other candidates endeavorsd to
form combinations, but soon recog-
ni1ed there was no chance for them
and withdrew their name. Our
congressman were nominated BY &C

The "0o-oallsd" Peoples Ticket.
BeresfOfd News.

The ticket made up at Richland
last Monday is aqueer combination,
10 say the least. The soreheads at
the head Of the movement are well
known al over the county. Some
Of Thorn have for years been sucking
at the public fount, and would glad
~ have continued, but the people
made them step down and out to
make room for Others a. deserving
o. they. They howl about the RING.
They feel sure there il aring some-
where, but no one ever heard any
complaint about the ring when they
were 4 part Of the mystic circle. A
few years ago one Of the parties
asked an Office Of the republican
party because he chad q boy that he
wanted 10 educated" What about
the 1900 other boys in the county?
Well, l don't remember that he was
anxious about them, oh, no.
Last year when the Democratic
county convention was held at Elk
Point he logged the delegates all
day-said the Republican party was
rotten to the core. If the democrats
would give him place on their tick
ct he would quit the rotten machine.
Tho democrats did not need any Of
such timber, and in less than a
month he was out making speeches
for the "rotten Republicans"
Such is the kind Of men who rise
up in their might to save the people
but they will sweep the county"
mop the earth," and lead the demo-
cratic party to victory. When we
look ut the ticket We wonder what
there is in the ticket to gladden. the
hearts Of the democrats Of this
county.
II there had been held q regular
Democratic convention and one or
more Of them had been given a
place on the ticket there would be
some respectability about il. But
what on earth can the Democratic
party expect to gain by the scheme
even If it should win. These sore.
heads expect TO lead the democrats
% they wish. Will they succeed?
We shall see what we shall see. s.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17.-There appears to be
peg at see for May wheat. Several times
within week the price has dropped TO SIC
with hurrah among the bears and scalpers,
but each time the stop has been at that figure
and slow rally followed. Twice to-day be-
fore l o'clock May wheat touched s2c, each
time reacting. The news was not against
the market to-day near rs much as the bcar-
ish crowd. Liverpool cables were firm for
spot and futures. The receipts here were but
$50 cars, and only 81 cars graded No. 2.
Receipts in the Northwest were light with
go cars at Minneapolis. and 80 cars at Du-
luth. New York cleared -, 900 bu of wheat,
and about $40, 900 bu of corn, The cars for
this market for Wednesday were estimated
at $50. New Dunn had bullish cables
early. New York, however was bearish,
selling wheat here and reporting foreign
bids for No red wheat SC under market.
The contract wheat in store here now Is
2,10G,0y0 bushels, and this makes the shorts
feel secure, Arrayed on the selling side
from the start were Baldwin & Farnum, Nc
Farlaud, Cottrell, Cudahy, Jones, kennett
and the sealpers. Linn bought wheat early.
Hutchinson bought moderately. December
sold AZ 719765sc 10 77ls@ 1890. January
sold at 77s4c off to 77l2c. May opened at
SS2Ssc, sold at SGSSc, oil TO S2l4c, up 10 S2i2
DS2c to S2L6S2Ssc to S214 to S2c the third
time at o'clock. Wheat touched its lowest
point for May just before the close. selling
at Sl7sc. There was no export business re-
ported at New York to-day. Receipts for
two days were 80 cars winter wheat, los
ears spring, 395 ears of corn and pa cars OF
oats by rail, and 5000 bushels
spring wheat by canal Withdrawals from
store were 2,69l bu winter wheat, 1869 Blu
bu spring and 1877 bu corn. In spite Of the
wet weather corn was weak. December gave
a little exhibition of strength at the outset
but it did not last. Ii opened at 3234c, sold
to 33c, and before noon was off to 3212c. The
volume of business transacted was not large
Oats were quiet and shade lower. Proyis-
ions were slow again to-day. There we're no
liberal offerings, but prices yielded slightly
from opening figures during the morning.
then Hutchinson became buyer of May ribs
at 81 30. putting the price to s.. 92l2, and he
also became buyer of January pork. Pork
sold early at 1925, but went off to So. 22l2,
and on this buying recovered to 1920
927ls. May sold at 50 62I2@9.65. Lard
sold slightly lower at So. s7l2@5. 80 for JAN
uary, and S5.2llz@G.n5 for May. There was
little feature 10 the market.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber OfCOlnInerce.

May wheat made an early gain of Hc from
Yesterdays closing, ON moderate receipts and
q good demand for cash wheat that holds the
latter so near to May as to make it unprofit-
able to buy cash wheat and put it in store
for later delivery. This movement from the
country was not large in any section. and the
arrivals after taking out the shipments,
were below the DAVIS milling requirements,
the receipts being 225 cars and so shipped.
Cables were steady and very dull, but quoted
cargoes Cd higher. Quotations from sur
rounding markets were dull, and noted an
easy feeling The total arrivals in the
Northwest amounted to 325 cars at Mime
apolis and Duluth.

There was an early demand for good lots Of
milling wheat, and the choicest of them was
picked up at the outside prices. The demand
was Increased by q little early boom in fu-
lures, but later buying of cash wheat was
after a decline in the general market, and.
with quotations coming lower from all other
places, buyers or samples took advantage OF
the situation and beat down the market.
The result was that lots not strictly choice
that had been left to later had to go at lower
prices, making considerable range in values
Of the same grades. Poor lots did not go very
readily. as the competition for them was not
active. Local millers took most of the good
lots.
