BRIGHT PROSPECTS
The Crop Outlook in Dakota is an
Excellent One.
Plenty of Moisture-Politics a Boom.
ing Crop Also-A South Dakota
Budget of News.

SIOUX FALLS, Juno 21.--The fore
casts made in previous letters touching
the general crop outlook in South Da-
kot aare more than fulfilled up to the
present time. Aside from small sec
ton west of Mitchell where drouth is
reported, the whole OF the state seems
to be thoroughly moist, and the pros
pect is consequently as bright as can be
desired. 1t is safe to say there never
was season more adapted to the gem
cral needs of this agricultural region
than the present. The universal COM
ment is that crops never looked better
than they do now
The slanderers Of this state, who at
tempted to build regulations by misrepre-
sentation, would now find this won
derfully poor field to ply their voca-
tion in. On all sides are the growing evil
dences OF prosperity few months
hence, and unless some terrible ca
lamity befalls the crops South Dakota
will see an era of good times equal to
any section of the union. People in

that the years which follow will be bar
rem of even fair results and thus do o
good country harm which 1t does not
deserve. The farmers of this state can
smile at the tictionS of Nora Makrs and
her ilk, and while they knew all the
time the country was all right they had
run against little bad luck, as people
do every where, and had to submit to
n n n ipSfica bo ty,,y, Il 1io%< Q
things at the time not justifying them
in making full denial. But times have
changed since last winter Oyeranxious
officials, busy politicians and greedy
self-styled aid societies are no longer
visiting eastern cities and needlessly
telling tale of woe, but on the CON
trary the fields are green with promise
and the supposed hard times of few
months ago are scarcely memories.
POLITICS BLOOMING, TOO.
With the promising crop outlook
comes also promising crop of politics
"a genuine jumbie of ambitions. and
political summersaults heretofore un-
known in the west. The Farmers ALI:
ance resolved to put n ticket in the
field, and small resolution crept into
their proceedings which says that no
republican or democrat with the least
leaning toward the old parties could re-
ceive nomination at tho hands of the
grangers. The farmers felt SO good
over the enunciation Of this doctrine
that they decided to adjourn until July
Ii before meeting to put full state
ticket in the field. They may have ex.
pected help from the democratic con
vention which met at Aberdeen June
IL, but the democrats did not bite at
the bait The republicans will put a
full ticket in the field in August. Now
come the equal suffragists and want a
ticket of their own. An effort is BEING
made to call convention ''Just to please
the women" We expect to hear from
the prohibitionists, greenbackers and
others later on.

THE FEMALE suFrRAG1sTs.

The equal suffragists are making a
vigorous campaign. Susan b. Anthony,
Helen Cougar, Mrs. Howell Mrs. IIar-
den, and a score Of others are nightly
pleading with the men to give them the
ballot, promising to revolutionize every
thing that makes the bread providers
wish themselves anything but the heads
OF families. Their meetings are not usu-
ally very we'll attended by the men.
Women go out Of curiosity rather than
sympathy, as a large per cent of the
women OF this state care very little for
the ballot. The majority against equal
suffrage in South Dakota1Sill be an
overwhelming defeat Of he. But
as the campaign furnish Foyment
for few who have |ste for the
quiet of home, with the tender ties and
surroundings that elevate and purify
womanhood, the men must bear the or
deal for few months, and then quietly
put 1t to- sleep for years

THE ORIGINAL PACKAGE.

The Original package" is blooming
In South Dakota. In many towns the
condition OF things is simply terrible.
Affairs are much worse than under the
old license laws. Aside from the bene-
fit of the revenue and the legal control
of saloons, matters were III far better
shape than now. The most irrespon-
sible parties are now engaged in the
business, as no capital is required to
open joint beyond the room rent.
Never has South Dakota seen SO much
drunkenness as is witnessed today.
Tho enforcement league has laid down,
and the evil has full SWAY.

Everybody wants to know some

there is not a person in the county who
does not know the old white horse he
is accustomed to drive and is not fam
THAR with the kind, fatherly face of tho
"governor" as his fellow residents uni
formly call him. Thoroughly demo-

can approach him and he is as well re-
ceived us the weathiest manufacturer
of the town. Ills home is in the
fashionable residence part of the city,
is like himself. PLAIN and substantial.
His kindness extends everywhere.
Low in stature, he is sparely built,
although thereis a noticeable compact
ndss that betokens muscular strength.
His face is strongly marked, a heavy
under jaw denoting strength and firm
ness, a kindly, yet strong mouth. and
clear grey eyes, deepset beneath heavy
iron grey eyebrows. The characteristic
side whiskers are tinged with gray.
The thin locks upon the head show the
same mark of advanced years. AS in
everything else his attire is modest, he

suit of some dark material, surnount-
ed by silk hat of doubtful age. Few
men are better posted upon current top

tinually and rapidly growing, His
reading is done at night, and for the
most part in bed. His tastes at home
are simple as in business and in public
life. His wife, likehimself, is thorough
ly democratic in her manners.
