The following is said letter:
Hon. Thomas Montgomery, City,
Dear Sir: Will you kindly have crosswaIks
placed at the following streets: East side
Raymuud avenue to street car track south side
Langford across Gibbs, south side Pratt across
Gibbs. Repair walk north side Gordon across
Scudder. Crosswalk south side Knapp to
street car track on Langford. Also repair
washout at corner Gibbs and Langford.
Have Raymond avenue and Langford put
in proper condition for travel to and from
races. Our people also ask to have grass cut
on Boulevard, on Raymond. Langford ave-
nue. to Great Northern Railway bridge
Kindly call engineers attention to the fact
that members of the street force, in moving
dirt that has washed down on the sidewalks
throw same on the glass boulevard instead of
into the street to be cleared away, thus
leaving unsightly piles on the grass plats
They have done this repeatedly. Kindly look
after these matters FOR us and oblige.
Very respectfully yours. ". PRATT,
OF Executive Committee.

CHEAPER AND BETTER.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press has sprung
pleasant surprise on its large family of
readers by making great reduction in the
price of it's Daily and Sunday editions
when years subscription is prepaid.
The new rates are as follnws, payment to
be made strictly in advance: Daily and
Sunday, one year, $3.50; Daily without
Sunday. one year, 81; Sunday only, one
year, $l.50. Rates for lessperiod remain
the same as before. This is reduction of
from Is to 25 per cent. and it means a
boom in circulation for the Pioneer Press.
A year s subscription now will carry you
through the Conventions, the Campaign,
the Election and Inauguration. The
Pioneer Press has SO materially improved
in the past few months that it is more
than ever therepresentative Northwestern
paper. Many new features have been
adopted. Among others its Scandinavian
news, to which column is devoted weekly
its sporting and horse department, and
much new matter of merit.

The Sully County watchman. (Clifton, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1894, 1892-06-18

In politics the minds of the people
should be directed more to measures
than to men, and men should be mea-
sured more by their relation to mea-
sures than by mere personal qualities.
When man-worship governs, principles
decline and the liberties of the people
become endangered. The Republican
party was born wholly of ideas and
principles, and IN its early days it called
from the ranks only those who had
given evidence of their loyalty to prin-
ciple. Itwas thus that the Republican
party became mighty force IN the
world, carrying mankind upward and
onward toward a higher and better civil
izat,on. The year 1892 mark, an era
from which will date complete vindica-
ton and justification of the principles
Of protection as exemplified in the
Mckinley bill, and thus again as in the
past will this party by fidelity to prln-
ciple and by wisdom in its application
prove itself worthy Of the support and
confidence of all good citizens.
The Sully County watchman. (Clifton, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1894, 1892-06-18

The WATCHMAN is first local pa.
per devoted to local interests and local
news, and these claims have first right
to its space. Second, the Republican
party and it's principles are given
place, but while the WATcHMAN is
specially devoted to these local and
political interests, we have other con-
victlons and beliefs. We believe in
the church and are a frequent listener
to its teachings and contribute some
what to it's support and gladly publish
its notices and other matter, but we do
not devote our space as an organ of
that interest. We also believe in tenn
perance and so vote, and gladly pub
lish notices and other matter connected
Herewith and sometimes discuss it's
principles and sometimes contribute In
more substantial manner to it's sup
port, but the WATcHMAN is not special
ly an organ of that interest. Our
space will not permit. When it does
we will cheerfully publish short original
articles on that and other subjects of
general interest but we do not tske
kindly to weekly doses Of reprints and
ready made plate matter and use them
as little as possible. We are in SYM
pathy with the order of the W. c. T. U.
More, we have not the language to full
ly express our admiration of the order
and the noble work for which it was
formed to accomplish and do not
blame the mass of it's membership be-
cause some one or two Of it's members
would drag the order down to mere
opposition to the WATCHMAN and the
Republican party. We can safely
leave the matter of control to the order
itself and continue to wish 1t hearty
God speed.
