Alexandria Journal: Ifthere must
be parity between gold and silver
why not lessen the amount of gold in
a dollar instead of increasing the
amount of silver. This would increase
the number of dollars and be in accord
with past legislation of our country.
Stoser Falls Press: Make sixteen
dollars out of one gold dollar and then
you will have more dollars. See.
Why it's just as plain as a pike staff
and would work like a charm until you
tried to get rid OF them. Nobody
would take them for dollars, but that
wouldn't make any dIfference-you
would have more dollars just the same
-in your mind.
Why not legislate that each square
inch is an acre and each acre Is l6O
acres. There would be more acres, but
would there be any more land. That
each cat and dog is a horse. There
would be more horses, but would there
be any more team power, That each
pound shall be a ton. Then we could
buy 10000 tons of coal for the present
price of one ton, but would we haye any
more fuel? Yes, if our legislature en-
acts that 4 pounds shall be bushel it
will be and the bushels will be increas-
ed by Is times, but there will be no
more wheat and Is of the new bushels
will sell for no more than l of the old.
If Congress divides each of the present
dollars into Is new ones there will he
more dollars, but it will take Is of the
new ones to purchase as much as old
one had done and there will be no more
money than before and the Congress
that acted upon the suggestion of the
Alexandria Journal would be the
laughing stock of the world.

LAST week the heavy weight (av-
oirdupois) editor of the Journal after
having " been requested to do so by a
number of our citizens" took occasion
to give the WATCHMAN a roast about
an article that appeared in this paper
the week previous, and among other
things says zone of the authors of the
article is a y 4 X
county pauper and neither reflect the
honest sentiments of the people" >"
That's the strain Gee Whiz usually
writes in. We may be county pau
per" IN the eyes of Gee Whiz, but we
will size up the WATcHMAN's business
with that of the Journal from now
back to the time he took possession of
the concern and if we can't show up a
better cash business will not object to
the "pauper' racket again. And then
if that don't satisfy the "old man. we'll
60 further and compare judgment rec
ords with him and publish the findings.
We claim to have earned every cent
we have drawn from the county just
the same as any other officer, Gee
Whiz, j. P, included, and that we
have visible means Of support that has
no connection with county business.
If the Journals continuous "pest-
breeding" calamity wall is the "honest
sentiment of the people, we have no
desire to reflect it," See?

The Onida Journal SAYS:


The high price (of pork is the result

The insinuation is that the supply
of money has nothing to do with the
price. If that Is so-and 1t may be-
then the supply of money cuts no fig
ure with the price of wheat and the
present low price is merely the result
of two successive large crops. The
Journal, however, will continue its
falsehoods-and call it reform-about
the supply OF money and the price of
wheat, but it's got the "hog cholera"

Some of our exchanges have been
considerably wrought up of late about
a sensational article published in the
Sioux Falls Argus-L Leader from it's
Pierre correspondent stating that bill
had been framed and would be intro
duced at the proper time removing the
capital from Pierre to Huron. On ex-
animation of the State constitution it
appears that the capital is permanently
located, and that the question could
not be voted on before 1896, if at all.
Under our constitution our present leg
islature has no authority to remove the
capital or to call an election to vote for
or against a relocation of the same.
Read article 20 of the constitution.

romoyal of the Brookings Agricultural
College to Miller and resubmission,
while the members of the Legislature
keep on in the even tenor of their way
and do not confirm such sensational re.
ports by the introduction of bills on
any of the subjects but resubmisslon,
and that issue was recently killed IN

reports have died and are forgotten the
