The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1894-10-26


helping the taxpayers. We believe in
careful business economy, but We also
believe this cry of economy on the
part OF the Populists of this state is an
empty campaign hullabaloo to deceive
and prejudice the voter. But those
who seek the truth need not be de-
ceived.
Henry w. Yates. president of the
Nebraska National Bank, Omaha. who
has been Democrat fcr thirty years,
avows his intention to vote the straight
Republican ticket and why? Because
the managers of his party have assumed
the livery of mongrel which sacri.
fees everything for office.

The Republican ticket in South Dak-
ota will be elected by big majority.
No one doubts that. The Republicans
will also elect a legislature. The Pop.
ulists, by the aid of the Democrats,
will probably elect a few members, but
another indecrat senator is not a DOS
sibility.
The Republican delegation in con-
gress voted for silver coinage, for pro-
lection, for deserving pensions and
against tariff measure which gives us
free wool and, under whose schedule,
such commodities as barley, flax and
potatoes enter our markets, from for
eign countries, which never came be-
fore, to. the detriment of farmers.

The Gazette says it would be to the
credit of South Dakota to elect a gov
ernor who could present some ideas
that we're "original at some time in the
nineteenth century" We presume the
speech of Judge Howe fills the Gaz-
ette's ideal of originality, which was an
exegesis on fat money and was little
nearer to moss -backism than anything
we have heard during the campaign.
~
Populists always make campaign
cry for economy when they are out,
but it is conceded they are the most
reckless of all parties on expenditures
whenever they get into Office. We
have Populist authority for this. Ask
Mrs. Lease about the Lewelling regime
in Kansas, and ask Jack Orr and Capt.
Martin about the Waite machine in
Colorado.

In Missouri the Republicans are cer-
tain of electing several congressman and
thescampaign cry in that old Bourbon
state.is:protection and .bi-metalljsm.

The demonstration at Sioux Falls
Monday night.in honor of Senator AL
lison was one of the most enthusiastic
ever given a speaker in this state. OF
course the senator made an excellent
speech.

Loucks does not want any bosses
around but himself.

Harden and Howe are ''up with the
times" you know, on the money ques-
tion. Intrinsic value is immaterial in
the economy Of their modern(?) system.

Railroad ownership by the govern
ment is an interesting question, but it
is so much bigger than the party which
is riding it as hobby that it cannot
make much headway until it shall be
taken up by somebody else.
~
John Brennan, of Sioux City, the
most eloquent Irishman in the North
west, will speak at Mitchell on Novem-
ber ard, in the evening. He is an ar
dent Republican and the theme Of
his party's record ard nnlicy is always
one lIal brings uu. lis besL thoughts
and most eloquent appeals.
~
A vote for the Republican state ticket
means vote for clean, business-like
administration, which will keep the
credit of the state unsullied and man
age its affairs with economy and judg-
ment.
~
A vote for Robert j, Gamble and
John A. Pickler, for congressman.
means vote for protected industries,
for free coinage of United States silver
and the best interests of the state and
nation generally. Both are able men,
who have been tried by the people of
our state. They can be counted upon
to exercise intelligence and patriotism
in congress. They will lend themselves
to no visionary scheme that will bring
discredit to the state. They will be
with the party that will no doubt be in
the majority in the next congress and
will be in position, not only to propose
measurers, but to secure their passage.
