The first Rapid City issue OF the Sioux
Live Stock Journal has appeared from
the Republican Office. This journal was
established at Fort Pierre some two
years ago and it is now proposed to
issue from both Fort Pierre and Rapid
City. As the name implies the Journal
Is devoted to stock interests, subscrip-
ton 50. Mr.. Hallett has associated
with him F. P. Williams, OF the Repub-
lican, who will have charge OF this end
of the business. If the Journal proves a
olive Stock Journal it may fill the
long felt want it comes to supply, but if
it proves to be simply a farmer-catcher
for the Republican, as the addition OF
Mr.. Williams would imply, it will make
Roadway slowly.

How well posted these journals are on
the principles Of the Alliance and how
fearful OF combines, how Jealous OF the
interest OF the laborer.
If any man on earth is entitled to
hold what he has, it is the farmer who
has wrested it from the soil. That mer-
chant who would make d business OF
selling, day after day, goods below cost,
would be adjudged insane; and yet the
farmer too often does this thing year
~after.year. Itwould be but the first princi-
pie OF business for him to know the cost
Of production and meyer sell below it.
There is no question but that the farm
err who holds his wheat the coming fall
will receive at least 81 per bushel. The
advise to hold is good, but we fear there
are few who a profit by it. The farm
er is heavily in debt. The merchantand
the banker want their pay. but he IAN
not both pay and hold. In talking with
a merchant recently we stated that the
farmer would sell at sixty cents thecom-
ing fall while within four months the
price would in all probability advance
to S1.OO and that the loss Of forty cents
would leave that per cent OF obligations,
as no farmer holds his money, but either
meets obligations or purchases necessa'
ries. The merchant says: "Why don't
he hold?" Because he must meet his
bills. "Why not borrow and hold?'
Because money is too high. Does
it stand to reason that a banker
who owns a mill, will loan money al
rates that will allow the producer te
make money by borrowing to hold
Right here is where the sub-treasury
plan comes in, enabling the farmer tx
hold without borrowing or distressin;
his creditor and virtually putting al
yearly advance of twenty to forty pc
cent into the hands of our local mel
chants, instead Of into the hands O
millers and spectators at the none.
centcrs. The strongest advocates OF tn
much ridiculed sub-treasury bill SHOULD
be the country merchants.
AS to the charge that by holding grail
the farmer is advancing the price G
flour and hence injuring the laborin
man, u study OF past prices will no
bear 1T out. In the first place the differ
ence between early and late prices {
each season goes largely into the hand
OF elevator men and spectators. TIL
miller, particularly the small concerns
do not get the full benefit. And wher
they do for some unexplained cause
while the advance in flour keeps pac
with the advance in wheat, it falls be
hind when there is a downward move
ment in that cereal.
The small advance in flour, if any
which the holding OF grain might cause
for a few months in the fall, would be
more than offset by the prosperous con
dition OF the agricultural class and
through them OF all legitimate business
interests. The object OF the sudden in
terest OF the politician in the laboring
classes is very plain; they would sever
the bonds connecting the farmer and
the laboring men OF the country which
they realize an" daily becoming stronger;
bat they are on the wrong track. The
true laborer would see every mar re-
:civc q just reward for his labor.

A nameless correspondent made q
scurrilous attack on Judge Nowlin, in q
recent issue OF the Sioux City Journal
He is charged with having in every way
disappointed his democratic and repub.
lican supporters. With disregard OF
law and neglect OF duties. has proved
himself decidedly sensational in charg-
ing against usury and the violation OF
law by the city official, has refused to
resign without he can name his success
sor, etc., etc. AS full and specific as the
unknown (?) writer makes his charges,
still they are not worth the space nee
essary to notice them. 1t is rare indeed
for one occupying the position that
Judge Nowlin does to possess the full
confidence OF the people and members OF
the bar alike, and the only result OF the
