The Chicago Herald and St. Paul
Globe are exposing new robberies
every day perpetrated by the Min
neapolis wheat ring. Chas. A.
Pillsbury, the wheat king, made a
bluff of $4,000 that these papers
could not prove their statements.
They have not only done so, but
can bring forward from North Da.
koto alone, 10000 farmers who will
substantiate every charge that has
been made. The action of the ring
is being defended by every republi-
can newspaper of the Northwest,
and those of the Twin cities are es-
pecially bitter in denouncing the
information that led to the discov.
cry of the nefarious system of
wholesale robbery. Interesting de-
velopments may be expected when
republican state committees enter a
denial Of completely with the rob-
bers.

Platform Adopted BY Demo.
cratic State Convention.

L.. The representatives of the demo-
cratic party of North Dakota in con-
ventlon assembled heartily endorse the
platform adopted by the democratic
national convention at Chicago.
2. by common consent the tariff is
the supreme issue of the impending
campaign. The question to be settled
ny the American people is whether a
revenue tariff which was adopted as an
extreme war measure and with the
solemn pledge of it's authors that it
should be repealed as soon as that war
was over, and which has been increased
nearly one-fourth by the Mckinley
Dlll, shall be made perpetual for the
benefit OF a favored class; whether that
system shall continue which after
thirty years OF trial, presents the spec
tacle OF colossal fortunes on one side
and colossal Indebtedness on the
other, trusts and millionaires upon one
SIDE and an aggregate farm mortgage
lndebtendess OF 81, 500, ,OO0 600 upon the
other; q system which has massed in
the hands of 25,00O persons one-half of
the entire wealth OF the nation, in
other words, more than 50 per cent of
national wealth in the hands of less
than One-half of l per cent of the en-
tire population. To the repeal of such
measures we pledge the united support
OF the democratic party of North Da-
kota.
2. Upon this issue Of the tariff the
independent party and the democratic
party are one in interest, one in prin-
ciple and should be one in work.
4. The issue of this campaign comes
nome with especial force to the people
OF North Dakota. They bear all the
burdens of the republican tariff and
share in none of its profits. 1t is pow
erless to enhance the price of wheat
they have to sell and increases the
price OF all they have to buy. 1t sends
them to the free trade markets of the
world with their grain, and at the same
time places in the hands of their COM
petitors in Asia, Australia and South
America, agricultural implements at
30 per cent less than they are furnished
to them by the American manufacture
ers, whom it protects.
>. We rejoice that the democratic
party in this great campaign have for
their leader a man who writes it's prin-
ciples in ''the living characters and
ennobles them by heroic action''-
Grover Cleveland.
G.. We believe that resubmission is
! by far preferable to the present prohib-
itory law, as it is and has been en-
forced by the republican party

The Cavalier County Agricultural

The Cavalier County Agricultural
society is not a defunct organiza-
ton. The officers and directors are
the same energetic body Of repre-
sentative men who made success
possible last year, despite the fact
that they were laboring under great
disadvantages. I9ais year every
indication points to successful fair.
The season is far in advance of last
year and crops are much better.
The farmers feel jubilant over the
result of a years hard toll and have
leisure to enter into the work of
making the display larger and bet
ter than the last. The citizens of
Langdon, while never backward in
assisting any laudable enterprise,
are enthusiastic over the project,
and will put forth al: unusual and
united effort to make the second
annual fair a success in every detail.

Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1892-09-29

The political sky wears a roseate
hue for democracy in New York
state. Senator Hill, that great po-
litical leader, has gone into the
fight for Cleveland, and in doing so
has given relief to great many
democrats. There really was never
any reason for the least doubt as to
the course the Senator would pursue.
All the talk in the republican jour
nails about his sulking has been so
much rubbish, and a case where the
wish was father to the thought-as
late events prove-the republicans
having given up all hope of carry
ing the state. 1t is pretty safe to
say that the thirty-six elector |
votes Of New York will be cast for
Grover Cleveland.

Platform Adopted BY Democrat
County Convention.

Platform Adopted BY Democratic
County Convention.
The Democratic party of. Cavalier
county in convention assembled, re-af-
firms its faith in and allegiance to the
great party of Jefferson and Jackson
and endorses most heartily the Demo-
cratic platform of principles adopted
by the National Democratic party at
Chicago; and pledges its united ener-
gles to the maintenance and support
OF National Democracy, believing that
the Interests OF the masses will be best
subserved by the election of Grover
Cleveland.
We maintain that the Democratic
party, from it's inception, has advocated
popular suffrages and that it has al
ways made the cause of the common
people its cause; We urge that the peo-
pie never for a moment lose sight of
those vital interests underlying our
free institutions, and we therefore de-
nounce the policy of the Republican
party which would commit this country
to the federal control of elections, by
means of the infamous Force Bill.
We as fractional part Of National
Democracy insist that Cavalier county
aud the State of North Dakota in her
agricultural interests can never possi-
bly, hope to be benifitted one cent by
the present system of tariff taxation,
and on the contrary maintaining that
we sell our products at the world s
prices i'll free trade market, and are
forced to buy our supplies at fictitious
prices in a protected market, created
in class interests, denounce the So
called Mckinley bill as derogatory to
agricultural interests everywhere in
America, and as not calculated to fur
ther the interests of the common peo-
pie, who create products and buy the
supplies of life.
We denounce the pretensions of Re
publican politicians in their claims
that protection aids labor, and point to
the deplorable condition of things at
Homestead and throughout Pennsyl-
vania and New York, where 100, ,OOC
workingmen are in state of riot, fight
ing against reductions in wages and
for the preservation of their unions, as
evidence that labor itself has no faith
in these pretensions.
Resolved: That we denounce the
Republican party of this state for the
manner in which they have lent them.
selves on all occasions to further the
interests of Railroad and Elevator cor
porations;
Resolved: That we pledge our rep.
resentatives to the legislature to secure
for farmers suitable and ample ship
ping facilities at all stations, and upon
all railroads, wherever practicable, and
aid in releasing us from the ban o1
Republican corporation rule.
