soMETH1Ne NEEDED.

If there is one thing more than an
other that is needed by Hot Springs it
is a bureau of information, or adver-
Using, or whatever nam it may 60 by.
But it needs, badly, some advertising
matter for general distribution, and it
should be kept where everybody a
get it when they want it. Not a day
passes, scarcely, that. the STAR does not
receive Il call-either personally or by
letter-for some kind of advertising
matter about Hot Springs, the country,
and the Black Hills. People desire to
know of the healing properties of the
waters here, of the opportunities for
engaging in stock raising or farming.
or of the of the Hills in gen
eral. The little booklet gotten out by
Prof. Killing covers the main points very
nicely. But they are not being dis
tributed as they should. Every mcr-
chant, every business man, should
have a supply of them and insert one
in every letter he sends out, and have
them on hand SO that people may
know that they can get one free when
asked for. 1t is probable that some
things of interest may be omitted from
that little book, but we do not know
what they are. 1t is small, condensed,
and chock full of interesting informa-
ton. If our Business Mems Associa-
ton could be infused with life again it
could do nothing better than see that
some kind of information we're kept on
hand for free distribution to seekers
after information regarding Hot
Springs. There are thousands who
thirst for knowledge about this city.
Eastern people will sieze upon any
thing in the advertising line that Hot
Springs may send out. The more we
advertise the more people will we get
here.

THE COMMERCIAL CONGRESS.

Geo. H. Morgan, assistant secretary
of the Trans Mississippi Commercial
congress, announces that the next ses-
sion will convene at st. Louis on Nov.
26, and continue four days. The OBJ
ject of this congress is to discuss all
questions affecting the interests of the
people embraced in the territory which
the congress includes, viz: The states
and territories lying west of the Missis-
sippi river. This congress is supposed
to express the sentiments of the
people of the territory thus en-
braced upon various questions of
public interest, by resolutions to con-
gress, and those questions most likely
to be discussed are: The remonetiza-
ton of silver; irrigation of arid and
other lands; the disposition of the In
dian and public lands; the Nicaragua
canal; Il national bankrupt law; the
improvement of western rivers and
harbors; anti-option legislation; min
ing laws: admission of territories to
statehood. This will be a very i'm
portant gathering it seems to us, as
these are questions that are of great
Importance to the west. and certainly
resolutions adopted by Il representa-
tive body of the west would be needed
by congress. Governors may appoint
ten delegates; each board of county
commissioners delegate; the mayor
of cities each one delegate; each bust
ness organization three delegates. So
that it is possible that this congress
will be very largely attended.
Mayor Evans has appointed Cham
bers Kellar to represent Hot Springs.
The selection is a good one, and we
are sure MI. Kellar will let the gather
ing know that there is a Hot Springs
in South Dakota.

THE WAY POPS ARE A

Under the caption of "Still They
Come" the Union, a pop paper pub
lished at Rapid City, has the following:
j. G. Bower of Custer county was in
the city last Saturday and Sunday and
freely announced the fact that he had
got enough of republicanism as now
conducted, and IA ready to work with
the populists. The fool breaks of the
last republican convention was the last
straw. He states that he has long
been satisfied that some radical changes
we're necessary, but he had hoped to
see them brought about through the
republican party, but has lost all hope.
MIR. Bower is one of Custer county's
most intelligent farmers and has been
81 leader in the republican party, being a
candidate of the party two years ago
for the legislature. and this change of
front means the loss of many voters to
the republicans. The populist party
has reason to feel elated.
Here is another case added to the
elongated list of disgruntled republi-
cans. who have left the party and join
ed the pops on account of the fool
break" of some convention. as they are
pleased to call it. when the convention
in its wisdom refuses them Il n~mina-
ton. The Union did not deem it en-
pcdicnt to mention that in this case
the convert was seeking IL nomination
for representative in the state lcgisla-
ture. for which office he was defeated
at the polls two years ago III a county
which gave Governor Sheldon5O5 votes
to his 361. With this significant fact
staring the convention in the face. his
defeat for the nomination he so deeply
coveted will be decmed quite iustitiable,
especially when the important fact of
there being a U. S. senator to elect is
taken into consideration. and will at
once dispel the impression he desires
to make as to the fool break referred
to.-Custer Chronicle.

HARD FOR KYLE TO EXPLAIN.

When the amendment offered by
Senator PETER to place sugar on the
free list came up. Senator Kyle voted
nay. We think it will be hard for Sen
ator Kyle to explain wherein taxed
sugar will help his constituents.-Da-
kota Ruralist (pop).
Senator Kyle is also having a time of
it in attempting to explain to the large
number of sheep raisers i'm this state
why he voted to put wool upon the free
list. and thus aided i'm lowering the
price of wool. and it continues. to drop
in value. III there is any consistency
i'll a U. S. senator voting to tax the
sugar we use thereby raising it's
price. when nobody i'll this state is ben
Gifted by it-and voting to admit wool
free of duty thereby lowering its
price. when there are thousands to feel
the effects of it: if there be consistency
in Il man who will so act. we fail to
comprehend the situation. Senator
Kyle voted and acted with democracy
in nearly everything. The pops are
responsible for it. .Another pop sena
tor will doubtless do the same-aid
Grover Cleveland and democracy all
they can. a vote for the populist leg
islative ticket is Il vote for another
pop us senator. Ii you want Il pop:
if you like the way the pops of Colo
RADIO. with Waite at the head. of Kan
sas with it's Lcwelling. of Oregon with
its Pennoyer. then of course you will
vote for the pop candidates. But be-
fore you do study their records.

JUST AS EXPECTED.

A good many Iowa people are WON
dering what has become of Major An
derson. 1t is quite likely that the sly
majah is pluming his wings for a big
fight on an off year. He is too wise to
to try it ON apresidential year.-Omaha
Bee, Sept. s, 1892.
The Bee hit it exactly. They're onto
the Maiah down that way. They know
very we'll how he has constantly been
bobbing up for office somewhere, in
some one of the various parties. or
when all of them fail to recognize him
he might be looked for as an indepen-
dent candidate. That seems to he his
Iowa record. and he hasn't improved it
any since coming to South Dakota.
Hot Springs weekly star. (Hot Springs, S.D.) 1892-1917, 1894-10-19

The responsibility that rests upon
every voter must certainly have been
impressed upon him during the past
eighteen months. more than everbefore.
The principles that a party espouses
should be seriously considered by every
voter. And they should not fail to be
impressed with the fact that the only
manner by which ii decisive expression
can be gained of the sentiment of Il
community is by IL decisive party vote,
IL straight vote for the whole ticket.
The only way that we can hope for
such victory is by thorough organiza-
ton. Any one who believes that there
are principles at issue. and who is Il
partiZan in the interest of good gov
eminent. should by all means encour
age organization. Mugwumps. that
class of citizens who adhere to no par
ticular party principles, are not IN
pccted to favor organization. But men
with positive conviction are.

The opposition is on the run. They
seem to have given up that the rcpub-
licans will elect everything. with the
possible exception of sheriff. And
they are likely to be fooled on that. for
Bob Milligan is a strong man with the
people, because he is Il quiet man who
can count on every one who knows him
ms Il friend. Bob is straight. sober and
industrious. He is gaining votes every
day; lots of them; he is a winner. The
Legislative republican ticket ought to
have an overwhelming majority; for
this state can't afford to elect another
pop senator; and Fall River county
can't afford to permit it's legislative
vote go for a pop; and it will not.

WHERE THE MAJOR STANDS.

Major Anderson of the Black Hills
delivered an address at the court
house on Friday evening last from a
populist standpoint. 1t was II in
tention to comment upon the speech.
but when his political antecedants
showed him to have been a chronic
office seeker in Iowa both as a republi-
can and Il democrat. we concluded to
waste very little space on his type of
sorehead. The majors remark that
unless the populists proved better than
the republicans he would quit them.
evidently indicated that he is occupy
ing very doubtful ground. So much
for Mai. AnderSOn,-Redfeld Journal
Observer.
The Mitchell Republican in closing
its comments upon the majors speech
there says:
HE inveighed against republican
bosses and avowed his independence,
saying if the populist party were not
better than the one from which he
came, he would leave it,"
So that it is just as We expected. the
major still stands on mighty slippery
ground, and as we have before intima-
ted, there is Il possibility that he may
not stick to the pops throughout the
campaign. The major evidently doesn't
know where he is at. He has jumped
i'll and out of parties so unceremoni-
ously and frequently that there's no
telling what he may do next. But then
that's the way with some folks. It's
anything for Office.
