HURON, S. D., April 22.-Much inter-
est is being taken in the meeting OF the
state Democratic central committee. to
be held in this city tomorrow. The
fact that the Democrats. were either vic
torious or made large gains in nearly
all of the larger towns of the state at
the late municipal elections has done
much to encourage the leaders and put
new life into those who have been
slow to take up the fight in the coming
fall elections. Chairman Hundly is in
receipt of letters from all parts of the
state indicating that South Dakota
Democrats are more united than ever
before, and are preparing to enter the
campaign with more than their usual
vigor. 1t is thought that the state con-
vention will be called early in Septem-
Der. and possibly the last of August.
Several towns have asked for the con-
vention, but the choice will be either

Has Gordon Gone Abroad +!

Friends of Rev. G. E. Gordon are
becoming uneasy because they can
find no trace of Mr.. Gordon's where
abouts. Some think he has gone to
Europe. Those who knew him in
timately are aware that he was trou-
bled by domestic as well as business
complications, and they are inclined
to feel dubious about his prolonged
absence.
The man who was Mr.. Gordon's
closest friend is Ferdinand Peck, of
Chicago, who is at the head of the
Auditorium enterprise. Within the
last few days Supt. Whitehead, of the
Wisconsin Humane society, desired
to see Mr.. Gordon, but could not learn
where he was, and therefore sought
information from Mr.. Peck regarding
his friends whereabouts. Mr.. Peck
could tell him nothing except that
Mr. Gordon recently called at his Chi
cago Office to say that Secretary Rusk
had summoned him to Washington,
and that he was going there. He also
announced his intention of going to
New York. However, it has been
learned by wiring to Capt. Scheffel
and other friends of Mr.. Gordon in
New York that he is not there, nor is
he at Washington. Some of his &C
quaintances are inclined to think that
he has gone abroad, although he had
expressed no intention of doing so.
He has not been to his farm at Kosh-
konong forIa long time. Supt. White
head went there and found that even
Mr.. Drake, Mr.. Gordon's secretary,
did not know where he was.
1t is said by Mr.. Gordon's friends
that he had acquired the title to that
part of the property upon which the
homestead and buildings stand-the
most valuable part of the whole-for
the Pecks, of Chicago, and simply held
it in trust for them Some of the
creditors will test in the courts the
right of Mr.. Gordon to hold property
in trust for Mr.. Peck, and at the same
time give the world to understand
that he owned it himself.
Among the creditors of Mr.. Gordon
who haven not secured writs of attach
ment against his property is the
Plankinton house. Manager Chase,
it is said, has bill for about $500
against Mr. Gordon. The bill includes
board for himself and wife, and Incl
misunderstanding Wisconsin.
Rev. Mr.. Gordon has been heard
from at Washington, where he is

THE FARMER's HOME MARKET HIS BEST
MARKET.
The farmer requires a market in
which to sell his surplus products.
He builds the house in which lives and
buys the clothes he wears, as we'll as
his furniture and the implements he
uses on his farm, out of his surplus.
PROSPEROUS MANUFACTURES MAKE
PROSPEROUS FARMERS.
Labor produces wealth and wealth
gives power. The manufacturing in
dustries of the country to-day employ
not less than 100000 people, to
whom $1,000, 100000 in wages are
yearly paid, and they yearly produce
about $1,000 100000 worth Of
manufactured and other commodi-
ties. These people, all those depend
ent upon them, are fed by the farmer
and mainly constitute his home mar
ket. The wages they earn in the mill
and workshop, as we have seen, en-
able them to Guy the surplus pro-
ducts of the farmer. Now these COM
modities must be manufactured
either here or in Europe. Some of
our people seem to desire that they
should be made in England, and all
their efforts are in that direction,
their aim being to take the work from
our own people and give it to the
working people of England.

More Protection for Farmers.

When we are paying over $57, OO0,-
900 year on the articles of food and
live animals which weimport into our
country, it is time to increase and
not diminish our tariff The farmer
requires more protection and not less.
Why is it necessary to import into
this country more than So, 100000
worth of vegetables, including cabbage
from Holland, BIT, 156 bushels of po-
tatoes from Scotland, 1, Al ,466
bushels of potatoes and 6O8, 283
bushels of beans and peas from Cana
aa, Nova Scotia, ETC.? Why is it
necessary to import over 81 100000
worth of hay, and nearly 100000
worth Of breadstuffs, and over 49,
100000 dozen eggs, some of which
come from Denmark, Norway and
Sweden? With thefarming industry,
as with the manufacturing industry,
our people have to contend with the
cheap labor of other countries, and
each of these greatindustries requires
TO be protected from this cheap labor.
It has come to this: We must either
lower our wages to the standard Of
European labor, which we cannot
and never will consent to do, or else
we must protect it. There is no in
termediate course or hallway measure
that will meet the difficulty. 1t is the
wages we pay our people that marks
the difference between the condition
of our laboring people and those Of
Europe; that gives to the one many
of the luxuries of life, while the other
does not even have all the necessaries;
