CORRESPONDENCE.

SuLLY COUNTY WATcHMAN:-The
meeting came together as per appoint
ment and after the reading of the
minutes of the previous meeting Elder
Not Satisfied With Such Simplicity,
spoke as follows: "Mr. Chairman, |
have been very much impressed by
the speech of Bro. Foam at our last
meeting. The reference made therein
to the polly -wog and the full-grown
toad find to be a happy parallel to
scripture teaching. Therein we find
the young converts compared to babes
that cannot bear strong meats.
No intelligent parents will feed
young babies on hard-tack, pork and
beans, and they never try to amuse
their young minds with Pilgrims
Progress and the history Of the races.
Instead they feed them on sop and
amuse them with rattle-box and tin
horns. Why, Mr.. President, we even
teach our lisping ones that Santa Claus
comes down the chimney at the dead
hour OF the night and scripture teaches
that there is a time and place for all
things! 1t Is not ours to undeceive
the innocent ones as the Onida polly
wog-er-er Editor, | meant to say, Is try
ing to do. We here that Are strong
in the faith may smile at the vagaries
and yisonar,es but, Mr.. President,
there is nothing like them for the young
and innocent Independent converts.
They are just the things to fatten an
Independent BABY on. Irepeat again,
we need not undeceive them. Soon
enough, too soon, We fear, they will see
them rs so many soap bubbles that
shine and sparkle for a moment and
disappear, and with the poet they will
eXclaim:
"Ye glittering toys of earth, adicu."
Mr.. President, just as the pollywogs
appendage disappears without the aid
of surgeons knife as it passes from
polly-wogis to toadism. just so
surely our Independent babies. grown
into strong politicians, will without
ours or the Journals aid, understand
these deceptions; but il we are wise
our hearts desire will be accomplished
ere then. Let the next relay take care
of themselves. Let the dead bury the
dead Hearty applause greeted the
Elder as he sat down. Ere the last
echo ofapplause had died away Flaunt

The Sheriff Matters.

THE Sully county two-Sheriffs question

him TO turn over the Sheriff desk, book:
and papers to the Chairman of the Board
which as matter of course he refused to
do; 1st. because the Board had no auth

he holds certificate of election and the
Courts have not yet decided that he is moi

of withdrawal therefrom which does moi
release them because he has and still is
faithfully discharking the duties OF his
office and his bondsmen are therefore
holden and perfectly good, and will re.
main so until the end of his term.
The whole scheme seems to have been
previously arranged. with view Of oust.
ing Faust by revolutionary menthod and
otherwise. regardless Of all law anddeci-
sions in this case, and placing Smith in
charge. This action. however, does not
settle the question as to who is the legally
elected Sheriff. for the reason that Mr.
Smith has so far failed or even attempted
to establish his right to the office in ac-
cordance with the decision handed down
in the case by the Supreme Court
According to that decision Mr.. Smith
is not authorized to act as Sheriff legally
until he has gained possession of the office

now has no more authority to perform the

opinions he can get from lawyers in his
favor are either paid for OF the attorney

We do not make these statements from
personal prejudice. street rumors and dis

up political convention. When we
are in doubt or disagree somewhat we
may present more than one name for
the convention to choose from. We
have already selected six candidates

THE schedule of the articles embrac.
ed in West Indies was made public
this week and it is regarded with
mingled praise and wonder. Praise
because of the beuefts certain to secure
the reform to our farmers and manu-
facturers, and wonder that England
should have been persuaded to give us
so much of the trade that she has
practically monopolized for many
years. One of the Commissioners, of
this part of the colonies, who negotiat
ed the treaty, said that England
never did ANYTHING more unwillingly
than authorizing the negotiation o
this treaty, but it was recognized tha
the American market was absolutel J
necessary to the colonies, and that i
would be closed to them unless salts
factory concessions were made.

Alliance Men Ask Questions.

Huron Special to Sioux City Journal. Jan. 8.
Ever since the annual meeting of
the State Farmers alliance in this city
last month, there has been heard NUT
tering of dissatisfaction with some of
the acts of that body. One cause of
displeasure is this A resolution was
adopted whereby 5 cents out of every
dollar paid into the treasury as mem
hership fees and dues is to be appro-
priated for the liquidation of debt of
something like 81 500 against the
Ruralist Publishing company. This
assessment or appropriation, IS in ad
dition to the so cents heretofore paid
the Ruralist. from the same fund, as
subscription to that paper. Each
member OF the alliance is required to
subscribe and pay for the Ruralist
whether he desires it or not. The ad-
diti0nal ID cents was levied in order
TO cancel the obligation Of that concern.
Not long after the alliance adjourned
the Ruralist people began casting
about to see what material was needed
TO improve their publishing facilities.
Among other items folding, pasting
and trimming machine was deemed an
absolutely indispensable piece of
furniture. Secretary Cooley therefore
hied himself away eastward and pur-
chased The machine, the cost of which,
together with other material, amount
ed, it is said, to something like 81 400.
The question that alliance men are now
asking Is: "NVill another tax be levied
10 wipe out that old Indebtedness ~
If so, the whole dollar paid in had as
well he thrown into the Golfers of the
publishing company and another dollar
Clipped IN to pay the running expen,
ses of the alliance organization.
Some inquiry is also being made rs
to what use was made of the funds re-
ceived by certain alliance men from the
various capital committees. 1t is said
that 32O acres Of land near Watertown
was sold some time since, but the
average alliance member doesn't know
what hecamc of the proceeds. The
alliance building in this city recently
passed into the hands OF 4 certain bank
or, and some of the members are at a
loss to know "why things are thus
