A Communication from Laverue.

Editor UNIoN:-The work OF threshing
progresses in our part OF the kingdom.
Granger and Robinson have swept our
creek from this point to the mouth of
creek. Now we find Zach Holmes with
steamer separating the wheat from the
chaff from this point westward, both
machines have given the best of salts
faction. The wheat is running about
ten to thirteen bushels per acre, with a
few exceptions beyond this. The TWEEN
ty to twenty-five bushels per acre of our
Imagination all disappears through the
hall bushel of these threshers. / hope,
however, ii this meets the eye OF the
proprletors of the machines they will
not think I am accusing them OF carry
ing q half bushel of too great proper
lions lOh, noD. In this connection let
me give a point on the benefit of irriga-
ton. In a conversation with a gentle
man from that favored valley, Rapid
crack, in regard to his crops he said his
wheat crop was a sad failure atthe same
time looking sad. He said further he
had been hailed out. ] began to feel
sorry for him too, and inquired ii he
thought he would be able to get enough
to pay for tbreshing. Yes, he thought it
would still yield about twelve bushels
per acre but had expected forty. +
sighed and thought OF my good crop,
ten bushels per acre. Also thought OF

up for Il grocery store.
The ad OF the new firm will be found in
this Issue OF THE UNION. as they are es-
pecially anxious to secure the trade of
our farmers. To this end they will be
prepared at all times to pay the highest
market price in trade for butter, eggs,
poultry, vegetables and grain. The
goods they are prepared to offer you in
exchange for your produce will be from
a new and fresh stock and as they sell
for cash only, the prices cannot be beat.
en-. They wish particularly to announce
that they will duplicate eastern prices
and feel assured that if given a chance
they can convince, even alliance men.
that they do not need a store OF their
own to secure fair prices.

artesian wells flowing down the slope Of
these fertile plateaus. By the way, l
find on my table this evening q commu-
nication from mayor OF Rapid City con-
tanning the information that I was app
pointed commissioner to represent this
part OF South Dakota at the irrigation
congress at Salt Lake City to convene
on the 18th, 18th, and 18th of Septem-
Der, with urgent request that l attend.

ticabillty OF being represented at this
congress in our irrigation meeting ON

right in his urgent request that we be
represented, hoping that great good and
benefit may result to western South
Dakota from this congress. With the
Information received from those who
have experimental with the different
methods OF irrigation, might we not
haye been able to take more decisive
action and probably saved hundreds OF
dollars by knowing which method to
adopt? l wonder if Melbourne will not
be INVITED with his rain machine to lay
the dust for them while on some OF these
side excursions planned for the enter
tainment OF the members.
In regard to the progress in our arte-
sian well matters, allow me to say that
l find a growing interest with a general
desire to see a test well sunk this tall,
also a willingness to aid financially in
the matter. In conversation with one
OF Box Elders most thrifty farmers to-
day, he informed me that a certain citi-
zen OF Rapid City said he would be one
OF forty men to foot the bill OF a test
well. The farmer also said he would be
a second one, now where are the other
thlrty-elght? These are the men we
want to hear from. Rise up in ''meetln''
and speak. l suggest it would be a good
plan for any one or all OF the remaining
thirty-eight to send their names to the
editor OF THE UNION. Further on in the
dedication" we will call for contribu-
tions in smaller shares if necessary.

WHERE DO YOU BELONG:

Next week the three parties hold their
conventions and we know that many
thoughtful men are studying the princi-
pies espoused by the different organiza-
tions, honestly endeavoring to decide
with which they should last their lot.
We hope these inquiring ones will look
beneath the surface. The grand old
party at the helm during the throes If
rebellion and under whose admlnlstra-
ton the vast wealth OF the western
wilderness has been grasped by man,
years with their associations, all tend
to endesr the name to many. Nor does
that grand name, democratic, fail to
awaken a warm spot in many hearts.
What though it has had It's years OF
failures, it once vas the synonym for
success and disappointment but unites
the elements effected p.ore strongly. In
contrast to these associations, the new
party presents the thrilling spectacle of
a vast army Of the common people, cry
ing out against the unequal distribution
OF Gods blessings, striving to throw off
the heavy HANG Of the oppressor. Per
haps awkwa,Y IN their efforts, but hon
est In their Sndeavors, only lacking the
orgaatamraation and leadership which time
2 alone can bring.
These are but the surface views.
Study if you will the history OF the dem
ocratic party, its birth, It's growth AMI
real death, at the birth of the republi-
can. when its work was done. After its
day it could accomplish nothing. 1t
has been tenacious OF life, but fruitless
OF good works. A mere check upon it's
victorious rival; a rusty weapon, which
the people have used from time to time
to curb the ambition OF the new power.
The republican party, brought into ex-
istence to enforce a principle, was held
to its work by a rebellion, grew after it's
work on the free bounties OF God stored
in the vast prairies and rocky Businesses
OF the west. and is being coddled in it's
decrepid old age by the army OF mnllio,l.
aires, which its own unjust class legisla-
ton has grown.
Friends, you know that the move
mcnt is for the right, give it your sup
port. What though some OF it's princi-
pies do not suit you, you must acknowl.
edge that they are framed for the weak
manv, rather than the strong few, and
remember that the people are back O
them and the people are always right in
the end. The Lord reigns, but it liz al
lotted to man to work out his own des
tiny. So far he is permitted t. blindly
gropes, but the awakening comes. We
are at a new epoch in history. The
people have awakened. The scales have
fallen from tsheir eyes. They see the chains
with which their indifference has allowed
them to be bound. The clanking oil
those chains drownd the battle crys.e
the old parties and as they rush togeth-
er from their broken ranks they shout
as with one voice, 'The earth is the
Lords and the fuiness thereof; the
world, and they that dwell therein"

Some Fine Potatoes,

We have received from Anthony
Thoma, who resides on the Geo. Wells
place. an extra fine sample OF potatoes,
many of them weighing two and three
pounds each. For average largeness
MI. Thoma can beat the record 80 far.
He showed us a gunny sack full which
weighed ITO pounds and contained by
actual count 80 potatoes. His load at
the time we saw these potatoes would
be an eye-opener for many eastern
people. Besides potatoes, there was
home grown apples, crab apples. toma-
toes, waternelons and squashes.

For some time both independents and
republicans claimed Geo. G. Crosse pres
ldert OF the alliance company. Last
fall we believe the republicans gave him
up. If however the interview with him
published in the Minneapolis Tribune in
which he states that the independents
will favor a good democrat for congress,
proves true, it will prove that Mr..
Crosse is still a republican. Democrats
and republicans are fusing in some Sec
tions OF Kansas and Nebraska, but there
is no fusion possible with independents.

right treachery i'll the party organ are to be re-

This was followed in a few days by a
wild charge on Judge Moody which
caused the righteous ones within the
party to boil with wrath and forced the
Napoleon Of the great Saturday daily
to keep his %virtuous bed for safety.

Those in position to express an intelligent
opinion on the subject, say that Senator Moody
