of Minnesota has issued ringing address
to the voters of that state. which is as ap-
plicable to the people OF South Dakota
as to those of Minnesota, and should be
read by every man in the state who will
cast ballot next month. 1t is as fol-
lows:
10 the voters of Minnesota
Never before since the close of the war
tor the Union were you called upon to
play apart as important as you will on the
9th day of November. Now, as then
the republic is assailed by enemies
within more dangerous than those With
out, because their insldious attack is
masked under the preLense Of PATRIOTISM
Now, as then, the country has been
brought to the verge OF ruin by the per
sistent Jolly and wrong-dolDg ol the
Democratic party. Now, as then, II Is
toward the republican party tAat the
eyes Of all true citizens are lurEed as
relief from an intoierable present, tucIr
hope for blgh,er future.

VI hat do these two enemies ot ours

party has conle 10 represent, above al!
things, the organization that would break
down our Industries and surrender the
industrial independence of the country
to the very hands from which it
wresled political independence at the
point of the sword century ago. That
is the great and sufficient Indictment
against it. 1t rests 10 longer upon mere
accusation. Its truth has been demon

this party the opportunity 10 carry It's

consequences? From one end OF the land
to the other prosperity has been lald low;
closed factories, idle worklngmen, sutter-
