Hon. Walter Muir, president of
the state farmers alliance. in express
sing his views on the platform of
the late Cincinnati convention says:
"We are heart and soul with the
platform of the Cincinnati confer
ance, as far as it goes; but as re-
formers how can we go before the
people and ignore the greatest mo.
nopoly, the liquor traffic. We can
not, we must not leave the prohibi-
ton of the saloon out of our plat.
form. Let us hope that the mistake
made at Cincinnati will be corrected
at our national meeting in 1S92.'
Mr.. Muir's remarks have the true
ring and, if we may put it in tha,
light, is a nut for some of our home
alliance men to crack. Fall into
line.

Dog Catcher. Wanted.

When H. p. Hammer went to his
sheep corrall yesterday morning he
found thirty sheep killed and several
others lacerated, the work of dogs. 1t
is not known whose dogs it was that
did thc business but it is thought that
it was done by two or three strange
dogs that have been hanging around
town. The loss is u heavy one for Mr.
Hammer. Owners of dogs should
see to it that their dogs are fastened up
at night. During the past week We
have been awakened out of sound
sleep by herd of dogs barking and
chasing cattle, and it is anything but
pleasant. A dog catcher is badly need
ed in this mans town. Mr.. Hammer

The Fargo Commonwealth, in la
menting over our ignorance of the
popularity of the democratic party,
lets out a. howl like the last notes of
a dying coyote, and wants to know
if the Courier is not aware that the
democratic party polled more votes
than all the other parties and isms
combined. Well. what of it? Why
don't you go to work and enlighten
the people about the way you poll
such a big vote in the south? Why
don't you tell how the colored re-
publican voters are driven from the
polling places by shotguns? Why
don't'you tell all this? Don't pull
back on the "breechin" when you
make such a sweeping. assertion.
Give us free ballot in the south
and your party and islns will be bur
led so deep it will take ages to resur.

The third party movement does
not seem to be very popular in Kan
sas, the stronghold of the Farmers
Alliance. A special from Topeka,
Kan, says that the returns received
by the alliance executive committee
from the alliances, which were
asked to pass judgement on the work
done by the Cincinnati convention,
are far from encouraging to the Peo-
pies party politicians. 1t is known
that IS sub alliances have repudia-
ted tho third party movement. Fif-
teen OF these have reported to the
state alliance and 10 to the repub-
lican state central committee. The
Cloud county alliance has adopted
the following resolutions: "Whcre-
as, the south was not represented in
the Cincinnati convention, and.
whereas, we believe the third party
will disrupt the republican party to
the benefit OF the democratic party,
therefore, be it resolved, that we
abandon the third party to return to
our past affiliation."
These resolutions, it is said, have
double significance, because Cloud
county is the home of Senator
Wheeler, the only alliance member
of the senate.

The nomination Of Major McKin-
ley, author of the much dreaded
(by democrats) tariff bill, as govern
or of Ohio, is gritty piece of work
done by the republicans of that state.
During the last campaign the Nc
Klnley bill was badly misrepresented
by its opponents and in consequence
the republicans lost heavily, but only
temporarily. Things have changed
since last fall and this famous bill
is being understood more intelligent
ly than it was at that time, and as the
people see into the way they were
led astray last fall they are coming
back to their old affiliations and as a
consequence Major Mckinley was
last week nominated governor of
Ohio by acclamation. Everywhere
this staunch republican went he was
greeted with the widest applause
and rendered ovations all along the
line. Popular feeling is turning to-
ward the Mckinley bill as popular
tariff measure for the people and the
people see and will uphold it by
their votes in November in the state
of Ohio at least. New York repub-
licans have endorsed the nomination
Of this man Mckinley and so it is
commencing to go all over the coun-
try. You never hear of prices going
up IS per cent. since last fall. En-
dorsement of this tariff law will be
swept from the Atlantic to the Paci-
fic by the votes of the people in
1892. This question will be the
fight and the republican party will
be 'in it."

The pepper grass weed is said to
be making serious inroads on wheat
fields that have been summer fallow-
ed and only plowed once, While
this weed has been in the country
Tor number of years, it has not
been sufficiently spread to attract
attention until this season. In
some fields it grows so profusely as
to choke out the wheat, practically
running the crop. 1t is said that a
second plowing the same season af-
ter summerfallowing will eradicate
the pest.-Casselton Republican.

Nature seems to have struck new

many summers before. 1t is hoped
that she knows what she is about, and

pcarance makes the heart feel lighter

Our part is to accept the present con-

that its leader, Mr.. Enger, has been i'll
so much of late, and it is sincerely
hoped that he will soon be able to take

The matter of having music. stand

of frequently which would be compli-

Not This Trip Saith Coop.
c1.StOwn.

Quite large crowd assembled on the
Cooperstown grounds last Saturday, to
witness the postponed game between
Dazey and Cooperstown. The weather
was in perfect condition, but not so the
Cs. A. Sinclair, hardwood and Nc.
Daniels all having ''pets," but they got
there all tho same, with one foot as it
were.
Clendenning opened the ball with a
good single, later on capturing tally,
Moe singed the atmosphere times,
Csllin's ambled around the bases with
agrans IL; his own, Osborn concluded
to rest before he reached first, Olson
trumped with single, but Thompson
failed to follow suit. This gave Dazey
. tallies to bank on.
FOR COoPERsTOwN
Percy opened with a fly that was
gathered into the fold. McDaniels hit
safely, F. Sinclair tested Noes speed by
stopping the ball, Mills and Miller fail
ed to find the sphere, but not until
-talfieswere cut on C's. shingle, tying
the score. In the End inning, both
sides swallowed goose egg, with bet.
ters scarcely knowing where to place
their money. In the 3rd inning Dazey
only pulled in one tally to C's. 3, this
was the time when Jimmy fell onto the
ball and banged it for easy bases. This
was ty far the best hit of the game and
gave G. a lead that Dazey never over
came. though they came awful near it.
Two more goose eggs were tenderly
laid away in the 4th inning. In the 9th
G. tapped Moe for runs, which, ended
their run getting. In the 7th inning
Jimmy Sinclair made his maiden ap-
pearance in the box, and like all new
pitchers was very nervous and wild,
but he gives promise of being a very
effective twirler if he is worked enough
to get him in shape. Dazcy gathered 3
runs in this inning which made things
interesting, but failed to land them
where their souls longed to be,
TIRE NINTH INNING
opened with G.. 9 ahead. Anderson
scored. the next two were easily retired
and then came the tug of W;r-and
pretty near squabble. When man
bangs away twice at a ball, then lets a
good one go by him, !, catcher is apt to
kick if it is called ball. That is what
Andrew did, his kick was back-action-
ed-double jointed and copper-riveted,
whereupon Umpire Olson threw up the
sponge. Right here comes in bit of
history. No man with a regard for the
truth can say that Clark made more
than one rank decision at Dazey, yet
reports have come from time to time
of the dire threatenings that Dazey was
breathing against him, also claims that
he gave Cooperstown the game on 6
rank decisions. The last thing the boys
heard'as they left Dazey was, "You
fellows are chumps If you think We
can't bring an umpire that will do
you" With this as a prelude, Umpire
Olson can not wonder that he was
watched with considerable suspicion.

but no more runs were nude. Twelve
times the c. boys made vain endeavors
to find the ball. Eleven times the Da-
zey boys followed suit. The hit of
Jimmy and the base stealing of An
drew Sinclair we're about the only
special features of the game. At its
conclusion Cocperstewn gave Dazey a
cheer and invitation to supper. Dazey
accepted the invitation to supper, but
failed to return the cheer.
