So early in the campaign we begin to
hear the old talk OF fusion. The str:ans-
est part OF it is that the charge always
comes from the republican camp. Do
they wish it or fear it? In spite OF all
charges in this line the Independent
party have minded their own business,
and never talked fusion but kept to tie
middle OF the road. Under this program
a steady growth has been made from
the day OF its organization. No other
course was possible IN the formative age
OF the party, but that age has passeG
and if the party now see fit in ~certafm
counties or ever in the state, to accept
overtures from the Democratic party,
they could safely do SO and would but
be following the course adopted by the
republican and democratic parties in
other states. We do not believe ANY
such course is needed in the state. The
independents will surely sweep it with
out any combinations. Should the
counties pull with either OF the old par
les the exchange must be the fnancihl
positions for the legislative ones. The
peoples party are not after the spoi!s
but they are bound to have a hand i'll
legislative matters.
President Loucks is however opposed
to all offers. An article on the subject
from his pen will appear in tomorrows
issue,

Northwestern Railroad Msneuvres.

The recent visit OF President Marvin
Hughitt to Neville, Iowa, has caused
people in that vicinity to conclude that
the Northwestern road will shortly
build from there to Sioux City. The
Sioux City journal IN speaking OF the
matter says:
The new line would give q direct con-
nection with Ida, Sac and Calhoun coun-
ties, not to mention Woodbury.. These
counties constitute one OF the richest
sections OF Iowa, and a section that be-
longs to Sioux City's trade territory,
but which for want OF railroad facilities
Sioux City has never been able to enter
to an advantage. It Is also expected
that the building OF the Movie line
will be followed by the construction OF
the Centerville, S. D. extension, which
would place Sioux City on the direct
line OF the Northwestern between Chi
cage and South Dakota points.

Not Judge Gardner and Wilson.

A Minneapolis travelling man said to a
reporter: II was on the train which
carried a lot OF delegates to a conven-
ton in South Dakota. and saw Il very
pretty exhibition Of how some things
are done down there. At one station
on the line we were held fifty minutes.
No reason appeared. and the cars got
very full OF choice Dakota profanity.
Pretty soon an engine came tearing
down the line behind us, drew up at the
real platform and disgorged two fellows
who tumbled aboard OF our train. One
of them was a South Dakota judge and
the other was his sheriff, neither over
25 years old. I should think. | alter
ward learned that the court had gotten
out about forty miles back, ordered a
cooked meal, eaten it, wired to hold our
train, and then taken one OF the COM
pany's engines and come along while we
waited. This judicial bundle Of nerves
was warmly congratulated by all on the
tram.

HURRAH FOR RAPID CITY.

The Northern Pacific to be Built to Rapid City
IN the Near Future.
A St. Paul special to the Chicago Tribune,
dated March 22nd, says: "a railroad is to
be built from Cakes, N. d., on the Northern
Pacific, via Aberdeen and Pierre, to Rapid
City, in the Black Hills, South Dakota. A
syndicate composed of fifty St. Paul men has
undertaken the construction Of the road under
an arrangement with the Northern Pacific to
lease and operate it when completed. The
people of Rapid City have undertaken to sur.
vey, grade and bridge that division Of the
road between Rapid City and East Pierre,
which is known as the Rapid City, Missouri
River and St. Paul railroad. Arrangements
have been made for grading and bridging that
division of the road east Of the Missouri
River which is known as the Duluth, Pierre
and Black Hills road. The entire length Of
the line to be constructed is 343 miles, and,
when completed to Aberdeen, will bring
Rapid City via the Milwaukee railroad within
5S5 miles Of St. Paul as against a distance OF
SAL miles from Omaha to Rapid City,

1t rather non plused the other city
aspirants, to daily newspapernotoriety,
to have their patrons interrogate them
all this forenoon about newsfromC Cham
,berlain and not be able to give it.
The UNION received the only telegram
that reached Rapid City from Chamber
lain, up till noon today. The obliging
lady manager Of the Western Union
Office has the permission OF the manage
ment Of this paper to verify this state
ment, should anyone require to SO do.
in order to lefute the falsehoods, which
the editor of the Rapid City Republican
tried to circulate this afternoon. 1t is
indeed a small piece OF business, to en-
quire at the telegraph office If anyone
had received Il telegram in relation to
the convention, as though the lady
would violate the first principle Of the
office and tell him. But complete dis
comfiture did it all. Look at this So
called republican journal! Yes look at
it and feel ashamed We supporters! A
little bit Of 81 one-horse farmers paper,
run by farmers, all the time ahead Of
these so.called experienced newspaper
men. Ahem, it looks pretty bad.
The following telegram was received
about 1915 O'Clock this forenoon:
After a heavy fight delegates were IN
structed for Harrison by an overwhelm
ing majority. A majority OF Penning.
ton and Fail River delegates supported
HARRISON. The balance OF the Black
Hills delegates stood by Moody, as
against Harrison.
Through the courtesy OF the Dead
wood Pioneer, the UNION is enabled tt
publish the names OF the delegates tt
Minneapolis, which are as follows: l.
D. French, Chairman, E. p. Erickson
n. L. Phillips, A. p. johnson. j. NJ
Greene, A. B. Afford, NJ. E. Liglltner
James HALEY, Gideon c. Moody.
Moody, it will be seen, does not head
the South Dakota delegation. This
means another and very decisive victory
for the anti-ring, anti-boss element Of
the republican party. 1t means defeat
for Pettigrcw and Moody and victory
for Mellette, who Is supposed to be
hacknd by Harrison. 1t is Gideon G,
Noody's death knell.

The New York chamber OF commerce
has forwarded a memorial to congress
opposing the free coinage OF silver. Thus
it will be seen that the shylocks OF Wall
street never miss an opportunity to
enlist their cohorts into advocating leg
islatlon favorable to plutocracy. While
the people implicitly trust their repre-
sentatives in congress and rely upon
each to do his duty without specific III
,structions, the money kings are untirine
and ceaseless in their efforts to secure
the enactment OF laws which will still
further increase their exactions from
the people.

How Moody Was Suuhhed.


Washington special i'll Minneapolis Tri-
bum: The facts in regard to ex-senator
Mooiy's visit to the White House have
leaked ont. The distinguished South Dakotan
called upon President Harrison and was re-
Cciycd with formal politcncss. He was not
embraced nor wept over. The subject Of
dinner was not mentioned, though veal was
plenty i'll the larder. The president received
Mr.. Moody i'll his private office and gave re-
spectful attention to the statement Of his
crranl. The substance of il was that he
(Moody) would be at the head Of the South
Dakota delegation, which would probably not
be instructed. He wanted a restoration Of
the cordial relations with the administratio
which formerly existed, and he desired the
presidents Endorsements Of his selection as
leader Of the delegation. He wanted to sc
before the people Of South Dakota as a rep.
lie was willing to commit himself, and so far as
possible, the entire delegation to the support
Of the president. President Harrison made a
characteristic reply to this nattering offer
He told the cX-senat or that he could not with
p.opriety indicate a choice Of delegates OIL
leaders. He would rather leave that entirely
with the people ofSouth Dakota. He wanted
them to be wholly untrammeled in theil
views and actions. The president could not
have stated more plainly that he would no.
make Moody his spokesman in South Dakota
His reply was couched in the politest terms
but the snub was unmistakable. President
Harrison is known to regard Moody as the
main cause Of the Generalization Of the re
publican party in South Dakota in 1890, ant
sentative of the administration.

The Deadwood papers the
sale OF a seven-eighths interest in the
Spokane mine for $4,000.
Through the UNION it was announced
that Messrs. Stenger and Humphrey

ing an amicable settlement OF the litlga-
ton over this mine, but been given a
bond on the property and further than
this nothing in the way Of a sale has
been effected.
Mr.. Humphrey was seen on the street
today and after being informed OF the
purport Of the Deadwood announce

OF the sale, he ought to be that one and
that he desired to contradict the state
ment, copfessing, however, that there

Fighting Like Dogs and Cats.

Tomorrow will see the bitterest f~actional
battle ever fought in the northwest. Trains
srGlving this evening have been crowded
with delegates and others who vii attend the
convention. The feeling between the Petit
grew and Mellctte factions is growing more
illJ.,se and 4 fierce battle will be waged for
sDuremacy in the state, says a Chamberlain
No al l. Omaha Bee March 20. AS a result
g. u.c bitter feeling the attendance will be
larger than at any previous convention in the
state. The chief issue is whether the delega-
lion to Minneapolis shall be instructed for
Harrison or go uninstructed, the latter being
TIC desire Of the Pettigrew men, while Gov
culor Mcllcttc and his friends are supporting
the president.

The Kelley Apostle.

The Methodist church was crowded to the
doors last evening i'll response to the an
nouncement that Senator O'Rourke would
lecture on the subject of "~Intemperance and
the Kelley cure" 1t was certainly a repre-
sentative audience for all classes and grades
of society, the religious dcvotee, the temper
ance enthusiast, the society lady, the solid
business man, the gilded youth, the "hoboe"
and the liquor dealer, were present to hear
the "silver tongucd orator Of Wisconsin, by
whice name the speaker was well known
years ago, speak on a subject which he is
we'll fitted to discuss with a master hand.
To those present who have only known Sen
ator O'Rourke for the past two or three years
and known him only as an employee of the
different railroads building into the Hills and
as a man who periodically went on sprees
aad caused considerable excitement and amuse-
meat by his actions when intoxicated, the
lecture last night was a great surprise. But
t. The few who have known the man in for
mar years Or known his history it was but a
return in part to his old time power. Those
who heard last night his vigorous and impas-
stoned plea for temperance, those who, what
ever their private opinions may be, could not
fail to be deeply impressed with his brilliant
words, paintings, and describing the evils of
drink, can well concede the business of the
many, very many, f%attering notices which
Senator O'Rourke received in years gone by
from a large number Of eastern papers. 1t
was the same natural and fascinating orator.
~torical powers which he still possesses which
made him at twenty-one a member Of the leg
%islature of Wisconsin, just as it was the same
curse which he is now using those powers
against which prevented his going on and
upward in a brilliant political career. AS a
man, a lawyer, a politician, a imam in the
gutter and now a temperance advocate, the
speaker himself is very interesting as a study
and fsr that reason as well as because the
UNION man became so interested in the lee
ture that he forgot to take notes, most Of his
short notice is about the man himself
The lecture was vigorous, logical, and best
of all, original. There was no cant, no
whining and very little fanaticism about it.
II was the best delivered lecture which a
Rapid City audience has had the pleasure Of
listening to for a long time and should Sena-
tor O'Rourke decide to deliver another lee
tu'e in Rapid City he will be greeted with a
large audience, Whilepraising the efforts Of
all the churches, the speaker in closing paid
an especially glowing tribute to the Kelley
cure and the practical temperance work it is
doing.
