The attention of the readers of The
STAR is called to a communication in
this issue from q. II. Iloagland regard
ing the Russian t~liistlcs of Shcpp's
canyon. There is the greatest danger
of the spread of these thistles unless
the county authorities. or someone ut
once proceeds to cNterminato them. AS
Il matter of course they will spread if
something is not done. We are inform
ed that these pests burn readily. so
that two or three men in a day might
destroy many acres of them.

One of our good farmer friends thinks
the STAR should go for these sheep
men who are driving enormous herds
of sheep into the county thereby des-
troying the range for cattle. The small
cattlcmen who have been here for years
growing up with the country andtrying
to get Il start therefore see the danger
that threatens their business if these
large herds of sheep are permitted to
rove about the county. So far as this
paper is concerned it has always advo-
Gated the protection of home industries.
that is the republican idea of things;
these herds of sheep to which objection
is urged are owned 10y no~n-rcsidents.
who pay no taxes. and who are there
fore not subject to home protection.
We want to see all the capital brought
into this county i'm the shape of stock
that the range will sustain. but we be-
lievc it an injustice 10 the hardy stock
me who have been here for years to
have their stock crowded off the range.
When Il field for industry of amy char
acter is once filed with that which is
beneficial to the community we believe
ii Il suicidal policy to invite more ell
ieipriscs that are likely to crowd and
weaken those first in the field. One
strong. prosperous industry is more
beneficial to Il community than aaoxen
puny. sictly. half-starved enterprises.
This is as true OF the stock raising i'll
dEstry us ii is of the newspaper bust
ness. the mercantile business. or any
other business. There is no legal
method of settling these matters as we
all might think they should be. but
there is always a moral phase of such
affairs that seems binding upon man:
the debt of justice from man to man.
III the range of this county will only
feed the cattle that are already here
then it is not right for the citizens to
encourage sheep men to this county,
and the resolutions adopted by the
cattle men are right. They were fair
in every particular. III this expression
of the STARS views viii! he beneficial to
the county and it's citizens we shall be
pleased that our friend brought up the
subject.

DEMOCRATIC EXPENDITURES.

When the democratic central COM
mittee seeks to make comparisons of
republican and democratic officials
they make their party decidedly odious.
They might have been of excellent
service to the people of the county
while they were making comparisons
of the expenditures OF the republican
and democratic shcriffs. had they
looked into t!ierecords of expenditures
made by the various boards of county
commissioners during the years 1880.
1891. 1882, 1893 and Il part of 1894. I'm
1880 we had a republican board of
county commissioners. and under them
the sum of sl2,Ss9.O3 was issued i'm
warrants. For the following three
years the board was composed of Il
majority of democrats and see how the
expenditures jumped way up: In 1891
they issued S23.5S7.16 in warrants; in
1892 they went still higher and issued
see9,S75.9A in warrants; then in 1898 they
seemingly felt ashamed of what they
had done and lowered their record Il
little, allowing S23.92S.5O in warrants.
During the month of january and
February of 1891 we still had a demo-
cratic board, and for those two months
alone they evidently lost no time for
the sun of s77,4:3O.39 vas drawn in
warrants, and since that time we have
had a majority of republicans on the
board and only s122.SsG.63 have been
issued, Il considerable portion of which
was for bills contracted by the demo-
cratic majority that preceded them.
The present board is aggressivdy par
ticular about the allowance of bills.
and nothing can receive their sanction
that is not in strict accordance with
law, and for something that was abso-
lutely necessary. They mny we'll be
termed d "rciurm' board. Therefore
i'll the expense OF the county govern
ment is to he siftcd for partizan p,lr-
poses the republicans gladly grab the
gauntlet. Look at the a~ma2ing.the un-
ie"sHiiisD.e ana jump
from the republican expenditures of
1850. of @l2.s89.o3. to those of 1851,
when the democrats run the amount
up TO the frightful sum of i.233.5s7.16-
almost double. Gaze upon such Il
record of the representatives of the
party of ''pcriidy and dishonor,'' and
then upon the republican record and
see which sou prefer.

P0PULIsTs AND CAPITAL.

When the party of eastern capitalists
were in this city several days ago they
were unanimous in expressing the
opinion that if South Dakota should
elect a populist ticket it would be a
black eye that the state would not re-
cover from for years. They referred
to the states of Colorado, Kansas and
others that have been under populist
misrule, showing how everything posi-
bic had been done to drive away capital
and to keep it away; that the populists
were opposed to capital anyway and
always did whatever they could to
repudiate and to destroy wealth.
With such al idea prevailing among
the populists these distinguished
gentlemen who were here looking after
opportunities for investment openly
announced that if the populists carried
this state they would have nothing to
do with investments in this state, such
as they had under contemplation,
They propose TO wait until after election
to see what the result will be. Many of
them had had business experience with
Colorado investments and they were
satisfied i'll their minds that popu!ism
had seriously crippled every material
interest of the state.
These new western states are depend
ent upon outside capital for Develop
ment and improvement of their re-
sources; we are therefore constantly
offering inducements to and inviting
capital to come to our midst: we want
it. we need it and must have it before
we can accomplish anything in an IL
ward and upward progress. The only
way we can possibly expect the wonder-
full undeveloped west to grow in great
ness: to develop it's and get
out of its natural state the wealth that
lies hidden within it in various WAYS. is
by the expenditure of money. This
money must come from abroad. We
want the money invested here; they
are willing to invest it here under
favorable conditions. What shall we
do. therefore. elect Il party to power
that denounces capita! and does all
that is possible, by word and deed. to
hamper it and drive it away: or a party
that believes i'll encouraging capital in
American investments and American
securcties and at the same time pro-
tecting the people againsts the ravages
OF Shylocks? We believe this is a true
account of the situation. as between
the populists and republicans regard
ing their expressed sentiments and
their conduct toward capital. The re-
publican party realizes that capital is
as necessar.. TO the progress OF this
country as is labor: that capital makes
labor and labor makes capital: each is
essential 20 The other: one represents
the other. and both are as necessary to
the welfare of every community in this
day and age as is food and air to the
s%ustenancc of human life. The en-
pioyment of labor and the consequent
advancement of the community is
liindered TO just that extent to which
the investment OF capital is retarded.
So that according to the manifest dis
position of those who have capital to
invest it will not be good business
policy to support the populist or demo-
cratic nominees, whose parties have
exhibited their ignorance of conduct
