Report Of th Meeting fthe Canton District, Held
oct. to 9.
The Cation cirelesof the United Norwe-
gian LutSsran church held its regular
meeting this place October nth, sth
and 9th, Ind it may be Of interest to the
readers ofgHE r FARMERS LEADER to learn
somethingsof the proceedings Of the meet
ing of the Body.
First vord, however, in explanation
of the Canton circle During great gen
eral conference, held at Minneapolis last
June, union was effected by the three
denominations known as the Augustana
Synod, Conference Church and the Anti
Missourians: According to this union
these threeld denominations have united in
to one body known as the United Nor
wegian lutheran churdh.
This powerful organization has con
gregations ip all parts Of the U. S. and
the congregations are for convenience ar
ranged ihto nineteen distinct districts, OF
Circles lKTids) and the Canton Circle. lis

Rs,ssal me- are these siss
cles, attended by the membership as well
as the clergy Of the ifferent Congregations
in each circle, for the purpose of religious
edification and the discussion of such
questions as may concern the mem bership
of the circle or to the church at large
AS might be expected, considerable int
crest was manifested in their two institu-
tions, here namely, Augustana College
and the Orphans Home, recently estab-
lished at Beloit, Iowa After the union OF
the church, it was found most su bserv-
lent to the interests of the united church
to discontinue the Belou Seminary and
the studentsof that institution, who had
not completed their course, will continue
the same at Augsburg Seminary in Min
neapolis. But the management OF the
church were not long in seeing that the
grounds and buildings of the former Be
lott Seminary were just what was needed
for an Orphans home and to this end all
needed arrangements have been directed.
The meeting also heartily approved of the
work done atAugustana College and the
! attendants pledged themselves to work To-.
the building up of an Institution here
that will be a credit to South Dakota as
well as to the church and it is hoped that
the youth of Lincoln county and south
eastern Dakota will avail themselves OF
this excellent opportunity to acquire an
education. Under the new arrangement,
it is proposed to make the college equal tc
any in the northwest. The LEADER
would remind Its readers that they would
advance their own interests by encourag
ing the upbuilding of the Augustana Col
lege.
The meeting of the Canton Circle was
attended by over 300 members of the Uni

WoRTH1G, Oct. 25. Special correspond-
1 ence. At the repu blican rally in the school
housegat this place last night, some fifty
men were in attendance. G. H. Sheldon
of#Day countyand our unworthy Canton
congressman made stump speeches for the
republican cause. Mr.. Sheldon occupied
most OF our attention extoiling the beau
ties OF the republican party and telling
{ what great things Tariff, Tariff & c..
y had done for this country In truth, Mr.
Sheldon s.whole speech was i'll adyocacy

men whsl had been favored with a seat in

things We're running. He explained
the silver bill more to his own satisfaction
than TO the satisfaction Of his hearers,
and declared that The independents were
a set OF ridiculous deneposues who had
no rights and did not deserve support.
Your readers may better estimate the
strength Of the republicans IN Worthing
and the weakness of Messres Sheldon and
and Gifford's speeches, from the fact that
during the three hours they occupied the
floor not a sign Of a cheer greeted any
thing they said.
F. A. Leavitt, who was present, was
called upon for a speech. Mr.. Leavitt re-
allied that this was not his meeting and
was somewhat backward about speaking

ly silver would be demonetized instead Of

attention to the cunning way in which

nicious part of the record Of the republic
an party and impressed his hearers with,
sthe fact that this is the way they have
succeeded in keeriisg the people in 1gnor.
anceof the truth for years. Mr.. Leavitt
also called attention to the manner in
which this old ring Of politicians had sue
ceeded in squeezing the life out Of the
people and are doing it today. Mr.. Leav
lit denounced this kind of work in his us
ually vigorous terms and was cheered to
the echo. Mr. Leavitt is gaining ground
every day around his own home as well as
elsewhere. The prohibitionists are unit
ed upon him as against the republican
Gamble and his friends are bound to
elect him.

RUNNING WATER, Oct. Is. Special Cor
respondence.. The independent party
movement is progressing finely in this To-
cality considering the fact that the
greatest obstacle in its way to overcome
is the preiudices of the people. But it is
gratifying to see the forces of the old par
ties forsaking the ruts of the democratic
and republican ranks and are coming over
one by one, slowly but surely, into the
new party fold; and that is right .'for We
need not fear to put the new wine into
new bottles and the best laws that were
ever made were laws repeating old laws.

Two Rustling Independents Play Smash With a
Reputation Rally
NUREY, Oct. 30 SPECIAL Cot7espo
Judge Clifford, K. G. Stabeck and,Steam
| boat King Sinonds held forth at the
Hagness school house in this Norway
township last Saturday evening with /.
sample Of the republican rallys now be-
ing peddled all over the county. Mr.
SrAbeck, opened the meeting with Il
speech in which he extolled the republic
an party and all it had ever done for the
people. He made his speech short and
sweet to give way for Judge Clifford who
he said was fresh from the halls of con-
sress and could tell more about the good
the republican party had done recently,
than he could. Judge Clifford then spoke
for two hours, and made first rate re-
publican speech. The principle thing he
said was that the republican party had
the credit for all the legislation favoring
the people that had been passed for many
years. He also said that in the true
sense of the word, Mr.. Loucks, the indie
pendent candidate for governor. was not
4 citizen Of the United States, and in the
event Of war in this country he could
claim protection under the British gov
ernment. The most remarkable thing
about Mr.. Gifford's speech was that in all
his lengthy argument he failed to say a
word that brought forth the sign Of an
applause or approval.
h After the Judge had closed his dis
course, j. NJ. Wahl and Jere Gehon, two,
.stalwert independents were loudly called
for from the audiance upon the floor and
|repuesteda reply to- Mr.: GfHord N \
Wahl, in his usually enthuastic way, said
that no one could expect a rusty hayseed
like himself and Jere Gehon to reply to Il
polished lawyer and congressman, fresh
from the halls Of legislation; but he was
surprised to hear man like Mr.. Clifford
make the argument he presented here this
evening. He admitted that all the good
legislation that had been enacted in twen-
ty-tive years had been done by the repub-
lican party, but in turn, all the bad legis-
lation had also come from that party.
Mr.. Wahl then proved that the beneficial
legislation passed by the republican par
ty was nowhere compared with the bad
they had passed. Mr. Gehon spoke but
a few moments and said that it was too
late for him to make much of speech, so
he stopped after asking Mr.. Clifford a
lew questions which he could not answer
The remarks of both Gehon
and Wahl We're greeted with tremendous
applause. The meeting was largely at
tended but nearly every one present will
vote the independent ticket and Mr.. Gift
ord's speech has helped to induce them to
do so.s

Cocaine HaIlucInations.

MN. Magnan and Saury report three
cases of hallucination due to the cocaine
habit. One patient was always scrap
ing his tongue, and thought he was ex-
tracing from it little black worms; and
the other made his skin raw in the en-
deavor to draw out cholera microbes;
and third, physician. is perpetually
looking for cocaine crystals under his
skin. Two patients suffered from cpl
leptic attacks and third from cramps.
1t is important to notice that two OF
these patients were persons who had re
sorted to cocaine in the hope of being
able to cure themselves thereby of the
morphine habit, an expectation which
had been disappointed. For more than
a year they had injected from one to
two grains of cocaine under the skin,
without, however, giving up the NOR
phine injections, which were only re-
duced in quantity. The possibility OF
substituting cocainism in the endeavor
to cure morphinomania is danger,
therefore, which must be carefully held
