OIT looks just DOW as though tho much
talked of idea of the fusion of the demo-
Gratis with the Independents would be
renowned by the former party. The
democratic party, if their own state
ments are credible, is a party founded
upon certain principles, for which it is
incumbent upon all democrats to con-
test, if they expect to command any re-
spect from thinking, reasoning public.
The independent party, also, claims to
possess certain principles in it's founda-
ton, although it requires a more astute
mind than is possessed by the average
voter to discover just what it's principles
are. If the democrats fuse with the
Independents, they voluntarily, willingly
and openly lay aside all %pretensions to
principle for the sake of gaining a few
votes. In other words" they sacrifice
everything which entities them to re-
spect for a chimerical possibility of
supremacy. And it is safe to say that
the democratic party, in case of fusion,
will lose more of it's own members, who
will withdraw IN disgust, than will be
gained from the ranks of the independ-
ents.

New YoRK's health officer, Jenkins,
should come down from his perch, and
look at his asinine self in a concave mir
ror, that all of his glaring and foolish
personality might be reflected. Because
of a fancied usurpation of his rights
and privileges as health officer, Jenkins
says, in effect, that he will quarantine
vessels aslong or as short a time as he
pleases. If MI. Jenkins will admit the
e%xigencies of the occasion and work to
prevent the gaining of a foothold in this
country by cholera, he will obtain more
praise than he will if he persists in
making ~a.speciic statement Of his rights
and informing the world as to his DOW
ers. The people do not care what are or
what are not your rights, Mr.. Jenkins.
They want you to take of your coat, lay
it on the ground along with your dignity,
and get to work. 81

sidelights to the independents, who had
the pleasure of nominating q ticket, and
the democrats the pleasure (?) Of en-
dorsing it.
The Independent party is one COM
posed of disgruntled members of both
the prominent parties of the day; rene
gades from the parties Of principle, who
claim that everything is wrong, that the
doctrines of republicans and democrats
are faulty, that their party organizations
are corrupt, and that the independent
party is the sole existing hope of the
people. Their platform is one continu-
GUS, doleful wall, they know not what
they want, but want it just the same,
and they have, in their reckless denun-
citation of the existing mode of national
government, exposed themselves to al
most universal ridicule and contempt.
This, then, is the party with which
the North Dakota democrats have fused.
The democrats, in indorsing the indie
pendent candidates, must indorse the
platform upon which those same candi-
dates stand. When Shortridge accepted
from the Independents the gubernatorial
nomination, he, in his acceptance, in
dorsed the independent platform. When
he is now Endorsed by the democrats, he
either indorses their platform, or they
(the democrats) renounce democracy and
become independents. In the former
case, Shortridge stands with one foot on
each platform, and thus straddles the
gulf of principle. In the other case, the
democrats, the party which makes such
pronounced p~retensions to principle and
honor, voluntarily each of
these, admit themselves to be in the
wrong, and admit the supremacy over
them of the indecrats.
If anything is pleasing to the average
man and voter it is devotion to principle.
The democrats of this state have proven
themselves perfectly willing to sacrifice
principle and party fealty. Does the
North Dakota democrat wish to be a
member of a party which possesses some
distinctive principles, or does he wish to
be a wait, to be tossed about at will by
a party whose principles require
a microscopic examination for dis
covery? Thus the matter stands.

Republican Platform of North Dakota.
We, the republicans of North Dakota in con-
vention assembled, reaf6rm our belief in the
principles as laid down in the republican ma
tional platform adopted at Minneapolis, and hail
with delight the practical results of protection
and reciprocity as inaugurated and put In prac-
tice by the party of progress.
We heartily approve of tho administration and
favor the reelection of Benjamin Harrison as
president Of the United States, and especially do
We recommend the president to the people as
one who has largely retrieved the disaster
brough: upon US by the action of Grover Cleve-
lands land commissioner, W. A. J. Sparkle.
whose administration was so oppressive to our
ioneer settlers.
We also bespeak for Mr.. Harrison the oousid-
Grafton and support of the old soldiers, who were
message and by his repeated vetoing Of pension
bills.
The course of our congressman, Hon. M.
N. johnson, has been worthy of the highest es-
TEEN, in which he has ever been held by the peo-
pie Of North Dakota, and we cordially endorse
his official actions in the present congress.
We point with pride to the record made by the
present state administration which has been
characterized by ability and economy; and by the
reelection of Andrew n. Burke for governor,
and the SUCCESS of our state ticket, we will have
an assurance of q continuation of everything
that tends to good government, the Observance of
the constitution and the enforcement of all laws
of our state.
We consider it of vital Importance that a pro-
per exhibit of the products and resources of
North Dakota should be made at the Columbian
worlds exposition and earnestly recommend
that our state make the necessary appropriation
to assure the same.

A NOTE.

Recent experiences of prominent stock
owners of western North Dakota has
convinced them that it will be impos.
slble for them to make the cattle drive
another year from Rapid City, S. D. The
old way of making the drive was to ship
in cars from the ranges in Texas to
Wyoming. There they we're unloaded,
and driven overland to the maturing
ranges in this state. But this drive was
a long one, and was attended with many
disadvantages. Cattle were weakened
during the trip, and unable to with
stand the hardships. Many of them
died along the trail, and the losses from
these causes convinced stockmen that
some other means of transporting them
must be discovered, if the business wal
to be conducted with profit to them
selves, After much discussion among
themselves, it was found that a through
shipment could be made, over the FIRE.
mont, Elkhorn and Missouri Valley rail-
road to Rapid City, s. D., and a drive of
200 miles from that point would bring
them to their destination. Accordingly,
at the beginning of the present year
this route was selected, and the ship
ments made. But here arose the trouble,
and q trouble which promises to put an
end to the using of this very convenient
route by the stockmen, as we'll as to put
them to the trouble and loss of using
the old route.
In the vicinity of Rapid City is a
thickly settled farming district. Farms
are carefully cultivated and fenced, and
the farmers are proud in their possess
sion. They resent instantly, the IN
trusion of any outsiders upon them, and
manifest a perfect willingness to defend
their possessions and rights from any
such intrusion, and to punish the in
truders. And it is learned that last
spring, the country in that vicinity
narrowly escaped a war between farmers
and stockmen, of which few persons are
oognizant.
A herd Of from three to five thousand
cattle, when turned loose in a farming
community can do more damage in one
day than q board OF competent and
efficient appraisers can calculate in q
week. Fences are torn down, grain
trampled into the earth, grass eaten off
close to the ground, and much other
damage DONE, The farmers consider,
and justly too, that this is an outrage.
The stockmen, on the other hand, con-
slider themselves at liberty to drive their
cattle wherever shall be best for their
interests. Each side is stubborn, and
neither will give way one inch to the
other, and the result is a strife between
the two classes, which often ends in an
exchange Of shots, and the death Of per-
sons On each side.
When such a contingency as this
arises in q community, it is necessary for
each person in that community to side
with one faction or the other, and as q
result, the whole community becomes
engaged in the conflict.
From reliable sources it is learned
that such q state Of affairs was narrowly
ayerted, but q month or SO ago. And,
further, il another attempt is made to
drive through that section, the calamity
which was 80 narrowly averted, will come
TO pass. A few words Of warning to each
