Dear Sir,

cription of its effect upon myself and friends.
1T were vain Of course to imagine that every
individual Of any considerable audience would
be equally well oleased, because. alas, for poor

the state of ones health when others are try

ones disposition towards each OF. them per-

vaticination of yesterdays Bulletin was fully
realized, and spent three most agreeable hours.
Several friends who have witnessed all manner
If performances in Europe and U.S.A, by the
leaders of the public stage, which fact however
docs not tend to their ungenerously decrying
what are attempted here, declared that they
have seldom more thoroughly exercised the
faculty of enjoyment.
The tableaux reflected not only the ftful
glare of the coloured fires on the lovely faces
and figures of the wax-work-like poses
plastiques and e~cstatic visions revealed by the
not too hasty curtain, but also very high
credit for good taste on the manager of them.
His mises-en-scene were exquisitely selected,
and were charmingly designed and carried out.
The long one-act play was made SO wonder

accidental circumstances, could attend. A

say that we quite agree the comedy, the

CURRENT COMMENT.
THE FARMERS TAKE THE FIELD,

THE ARMER TAKE THE FIELD.
The state central committee of the farm.
ers' alliance have issued a call for a state
convention at Lincoln: July 4th, it begins
to look as if another declaration ofinde-
pendence will be forthcomining on that
anniversary.
The time is certainly ripe for "farmers
to take the field" If they do so in q
manly way and with a bold earnest spirit
they can rely upon having the sympathy
of the masses and their assistance at the
polls. In every town the farmer has
friends and sympathizers who will vote
with him upon the issue of railroad regu-
~lation, even though they are not eligible to
membership in the farmers alliance,
The merchant wants nothing more than to
seethe farmers who buy of him prosperous
and contented. The towns themselves are
supported by the farmers trade and the
same railroad %extortion that bears hard on
the farmer cripples them. If the farmer
can free himself from railroad over charges
he will confer a benefit upon the towns and
cities of t~hesstate. For this reason the
farmers alliance ticket will be voted for
by thousands who sympatbize with the
alliance movement, though not eligible to
membership in the alliance movement.
The farmers alliance has a great oppo-
tnnity before it. The one thing of impor-
now is to send to the convention
from every county honest, earnest, intelli-
gent representatives, who can not be
bought and who are too intelligent to be
tricked.-World-H Herald.

~ ~
upon ourself-if any Credits duets that
we have had sufficient intelligence to dis
cover the drift and cause ofpresentsocial
conditions and to point out what we be-
lieve to be the means of bettering those
conditions" We believe Mr.. Knowles is
IN a measure right in hisconclusion. The
people were weary Of their burdens and
eagerly looking for relief. They cannot
fight their battles alone. They needed
champions, and have looked in vain for
them among the subsidized party press of
the country and when the Times, realiz-
ing these wants., struck out loudly
for reform it gained their support. The
people admire grit, and that the Times
has had, but Brother Knowles must not
take too much credit for pointing out
remedies for the betterment Of %oursocial
conditions. While no doubt many of
his readers are in full sympathy with
him, a great many take issue with him
on many points, as for instance, his
theories on prohibition, the tariff and
single tax. But while dissenting on these
views, they recognize in the Times q
valued agent in exposing and preventing
fraud in county affairs and will grant to
it, in the fnture as they have in the past,
a generous support.

UNITED STATES sENATOR

1t is as yet too early to determine what
political action the farmers and knights
OF Labor will take, but whether it be in
dependent action or through existing
parties, there is little doubt but they
will be even more strongly than last
season opposed to the candidacy OF &C.
Moody. 1t is a hopeful sign for the re-
publican party OF the Hills that the pro-
gressive element of that party is seeking
a representative on whom all elements
can agree, and in suggesting the Hon.
Edwin Van else OF Deadwood, as many
persons and papers are doing, we believe
a gentleman is named who comes as neal
filling the bill as any member Of thepro-
fession can.
The following from the Deadwood
Pioneer will be OF interest to our readers;
"The people ssof the Black Hills. and
especially Of Deadwood, have read with
much pleasure and qualification the fiat
tering notices in many eastern South
Dakota papers, of Mr.. Edwin Van else
and his probable candidacy for congress
this fall. MIR. V. has at no time or place
minated OF suggested that he would be
indeed q hopeful sign to see the office
are not ruled by rings and bosses select
ing him out from the multitude as On,
every way competent and worthy tc
represent us in the national halls OF leg
islation. Mr.. Van else is among thu
pioneers OF the Hills. He came, likt
many of the rest OF us, poor, to build uF
a fortune. He has lived among us, with
out blemish or reproach, has devoted
himself assiduously to his profession
until he has placed himself at the heac
OF the ablest bar in the state, and bull
up a fine and lucrative practice. He isl
man OF strong and deep rooted mora
and political convictions, believes il
principles as against spoils, the rule o
the people as against bossism ant
cliques. He is just such a man a woult
represent all classes, interests and in
dustries, faithfully and honestly, no
being owned by any one nor dominated
by any one. He is arepublican, true ant
loyal, but being a patriot and not
blind partisan, he is not Indifferent tt
some things in the principles and polio,
OF that party which call for reformation
and REIMBURSEMENT. He is fully alive tt
the depressed condition OF agricultu
raj and industrial interests, and is full.
impressed with the fact that relief mus
come and that speedily, orwe shall SUITE
the penalty OF indifference to wrong, ant
neglect Of "a plain duty to right it.
We have no assurance that Mr.. Va,
else can be prevailed upon to allow hi
name to be used, but if he should, tn
people OF the Hills, and those i'll othe
rally round him with enthusiasm, whic
would carry him through to certai
victory"

Did anyone count the republican far.
mers present at the organization OF the
Meade county alliance Saturday? They
could have been numbered on the fingers
OF one hand. Did anyone enunlerate the
democratic farmers present? They could
not be counted on the fingers of a half
dozen hands. And yet it is said the
Farmers alliance is not being run in the
interest of either OF the old parties. II
this is the truth, it is a peculiarfact that
nine out OF every ten men endorsed by it
are democrats. Queer, is it not?-Stur-
gis REGARD.
1t don't count that way in Pennington
county, Mr.. Hair. Here at least three
fourths OF our alliance men are republi-
cans. In the county organization, with
one exception, the officers arc all repub-
icans, and we think il you study the
membership in Meade county, you will
find plenty Of republicans. But when il
comes to action this fall, politicians viii
find that both republicans and demo
Gratis are alliance men,
