NOW WE VILE BUY THEM.
After the fight and when IL was under
stood tlatgt the independents had q ma
the legislature, II was boldly
and boastingly asserted ON the streets
that Senator Moodyvould buy his NJ
election, that II ~ cloae 6nly q lev
votes would Is needed and they could
be bought cheap. II i not strange when
the people in our midst are bought IN
groups, that the legislature should be
considered purchaseable. In fact it has
been to often the case and there is little
doubt but much Of this kind Of work
vas done last year. The delegation
that went to Pierre from this city to
defeat Moody met with proof Of this
thing. A representative, who apparent
" feared that he was getting left in the
deal, was looking for the buyers and
boldly offered himself to the wrong
crowd. We have also the uncontra-
dicted assertion that the bankers asso-
dlation, for q very small figure pur-
chased the defeat, in the senate, Of cor
tain measures demanded BY the farmer.
While there y no denying the deplorable
fact that money controls: the legislation
All fa1euu1tiop.itb a1falstyt0 suppose

controlled than the rich. Its tho Nin-
ciple Of the man rather than the size Of
his pocket book that bears on this ques-
ion. II it is true, as is often asserted,
that farmers are more easily fooled and
controlled than other classes, the reason
is evident. The farmers generally
elected to the legislature through the old
parties are chosen by our local politi-
clans and not by the farmers them
selves, they are not genuine farmers,
but spectators or petty politicians, men
whom party leaders know can be
bought, If they are not already bought
before elected. It is this class Of farm.

iticians who throw sops in the shape 81
questionable legislation to the laborme
classes in hopes to thus hold their votes.
and then when it proves q curse tits
called granger legislation. OF an entire.
ly different class are tho legislators
whom tbs farmers and laborers them
selves choose to serve them. They art
men who know what the people need
and whom the Doodle politicians will
find cannot be bought. At the same
date OF the Huron convention, the bank
ers' association was in session in an.
other city. A message Of greeting was
introduced and endorsed by the alliance
convention amid loud applause and
sent by wire to the bankers association.
It read, "We send greeting to tho Bank
ers' association and would notify them
that this convention will see to 1T that
higher priced farmers r sent to the
next legislature" They will not be
bought.

Advertising.

Advertising.
Few merchants are good advertisers,
and yet a successful study Of the art JIG.
necessary to success in business in this
age Of close competition. How often
the printer in soliciting advertising ID
met with the old story, "Times are dull,
we are barely paying legitimate ex-
penses and cannot afford to add to
them" Such merchants generally ex-
perience hard times. The live dealer
adyertises most extensively when times
are dnllest. To advertise nothing,
draws nothing. The wise advertiser
has special lines for all seasons. He is
not penny wise and pouni foolish. He
is not afraid to advertise special prices
and he backs his advertisement; thus
the people learn to place confidence in
what lie says and watch for his an
nouncements,

OF not less than Is degrees.
On the 9Th the weather was fair in the

CONTEST OVER ELECTORAL BOARD
The democrats of Norfolk Divided II
Opinion as to Who Shall BE Elected.

The Democratic members of the Senate
and House Committees on Privileges and
Elections yesterday evening gave hearing
to representatives of the Democratic party
from Norfolk with reference to who shall
be appointed On the Electoral Board Tor
that city.
1t seems that the Democratic Executive
Committee of Norfolk endorsed the pres
ent board for reappointment. The Demo,
Gratis afterwards held mass-meetlng and
declared that the Executive Committee
had no power TO say who should be ap-
pointed TO this position. This meet
ing recommended three persons for
the board, one of whom is at present a
member. The Executive Committee now
claim that their recommendation should be
adhered TO. and the delegates who were ap-
pointed by the mass-meeting are trying To
impress upon the legislative committees
that those who were recommended by that
meeting should be appointed.
The whole matter was argued by repre-
sentatives from both sides for three hours.
No action was taken.
Mr.. Jones, chairman of the Senate COM
mtiee, will early next week introduce o
resolution in that body to elect the boards
for every city and county. In the mean
| time tho senator and dalekAte3 nom NOE.
