REPUBLICAN PLATFORM,
Adopted by the south Dakota Re
publican state Convention a
YanlxeOn. August 13. 1894.

l. The republican party of the state
of South Dakota, ir convention assem-
bled declares anew it's allegiance to those
great principles for which republican,
ism has stood ever since its formal or
ganization, and which have been from
time to time declared in lis platforms.
2. In the interest of the country al
large, and particularly in the interest OF
the people of tins great agricultural
northwest, It affirms its conviction that
this nation owes to its own citizens and
their industries all reasonable protection
against competition with foreign labor;
and ii believes that this can be best and
most certainly afforded by the friends OF
protection, rather than by those who
declare, as did the last democratic ma
tional convention, that protection is un-
constitutional and fraudulent, and which
declaration has smit,en this whole coun-
try with blight that has wl,hered its
manufacturing industries, shriyeled It's
commerce, and dried up the fountains uf
its finances.
3. The policy of q democratic con-
gress, which levies upon this country the
tribute of millions In behalf OF the sugar
trust, and robs this country's wool
growers OF millions In behalf Of Austral-
ian flock owners, has been titiy character
lied by democratic president as perfidy
and dish0noI, and we declare our pref
erence for that reciprocity policy of the
republican party, which got something
for the country at large in exchange for
whatever advantage was accorded foreign
nations and their commercial interests.
4. Republicanism had its birth as a
movement to emancipate America from
the course of slave labor, and its pro
found concern ever since has been and
is now the promotion Of whatever would
guarantee to labor its due share in the
product to which it has contributed, as
we'll as TO guarantee to capital such in
ducemcnts as would inspire its investors
with confidence. We del lore the occur
renee of any conflicts between labor and
capital. We denounce the agitation Of
demagogues designed 10 foment and in
tensify these conflicts, and most earnest
ly disapprOve the use Of private armed
forces in any attempt to settle them
We believe that an appeal TO the law
and its officers Is amply sufficient to pro-
tect property and preserve the peace,
and a reference 10 legally created or
.amicably chosen boards OF arbitration
the best method OF adjusting all disagree
inents out OF winch these conflicts have
arisen.
5. Feeling that American citizen
ship should ,e protected against the I'm
pOrtation OF ..nuper and criminal classes

OF our immigration laws rs TO more
fully effect such protection.

What Are You Doing?

Reader, what are you doing to stay
the tide of intemperance that is sweep
ing over the land and wrecking in its
onward course the fondest hopes of many
a heart, burying beneath its relentless
waves the poor and the rich, the igno-
rant and the learned, men of genius and
of influence, and leaving its wake strewn
with degradation and misery, heart
broken widows and wailing orphans?
Are you sitting with folded hands look
ing idly ON and in effect saying, What
is that to me?' All, it is much to you
1t may seem as nothing today, but ON
the morrow that tide, rising higher and
higher, may cross the threshold of your
home, and the dearest idol of your
heart, swept beyond your controlling
influence, be wrecked body and soul.
Why, then, sit ye there idle? Up and
be doing. There is great work for you
to do Will you not commence at once?
Oh, that some voice coming from a
heart warmed and filed with true char
ity, with pity for the tempted and fall
en-, could waken you from this lethargy,
could rouse you to true sense of your
responsibility and make you realize that
an all wise Judge will call you to ac-
count and ask what you did to save your
tempted, fallen fellows from the terrible
curse of intemperance. Exchange

nor has there been for many years.
Third-Before prohibition rumshops
were everywhere in the state. wholesale
and retail, no hamlet so small and re-
tired but the rumseller found it and es-
tablished a grogshop there. Now in
more than three-fourths of the state,
having three-fourths of our population,
the grogshop is unknown. An entire
generation has grown up there, never
having seen saloon or the effects of one.
Fourth-The quantity of liquor now
sold in the state is not one-twentieth so
great as it was before prohibition. In
Portland, the largest city, the quantity
sold is not one-hundredth part so much
as it was, the city being twice larger
than it was at the time the law was
made.
Fifth-Our people used to spend in
strong drink the entire valuation of the
state in every period of 90 years, as the
nation is now doing in every period of 81
years. But now 81 900, 900 will far more
than pay for all the liquor smuggled into
the state and sold in violation of law.
! Sixth-Our state saves annually, di-
rectly or indirectly, more than $50, ,O00,-
600, which but for prohibition would be
spent, lost and wasted in drink.
Seventh-Maine is now one of the most
prosperous states in the Union, but be-
fore the adoption of prohibition it was
! undoubtedly the poorest.
Eighth-The whole face of the state
. has been changed for the better. Before
the law there were conspicuous indica-
tions everywhere of dilapidation, un-
thrift and decay in shabby churches,
shabby schoolhouses, shabby dwellings,
neglected and shabby barns. Now there
is nothing of all that, but everywhere
are seen conclusive proofs of industry,
activity, enterprise and thrift-no dilap-
idated or neglected buildings anywhere,
either public or private, but everywhere
unmistakable proofs of an industrious
and thrifty people.
Ninth-In 1884, after an experience of
the benefits of prohibition for 33 years,
that policy was put into our constitution
| by popular vote, the majority being
1905, the affirmative vote being three
times larger than the negative. There
can be no more convincing proof than
this that prohibition in Maine has not
been "a failure" as the distillers and
brewers declare it to be, but, ON the con-
trary, a great success. NEAL Dow.

The time is ripe for a new campaign
in opposition to the evil that is cursing
more homes and destroying more souls
than any other one evil in our country.
The cradle of the temperance reform
was in the church of Christ, and all of
its most effective triumphs have been
wrought through moral power, whether
that power was exerted in diminish
ing the drinking custom or in dealing
blows for the suppression of the dram
shops. An appeal is now made to the
churches to open a fresh warfare against
the bottle wherever found-in the So
cial circle, ON the household board or
on the counter of the saloons.

A Clergyman Rebuked.

The dean of Manchester, writing to
The British Temperance Advocate in an
swer to clergyman who had declared
that all alcoholic drinks were the good
creatures of God," says:
'Seventy-fv per cent of our criminals,
paupers and insane, homes stripped bare,
lives wrecked, souls imperiled, because
of drink. Now, sir, these evils which
you enumerate and deplore are rife
among us entirely because of human
agency in the changing of the nature and
properties of the good gifts of God
changing them from food to poison!
There is no drunkenness, with its attend
ed crime, lunacy, wretchedness, disease
and premature death, without the agency
of alcoholic drink, and there is no alco-
holic drink without human agency.
'It is pleaded that fermentation is a
natural process. Yes, but the fruit of
our vines and orchards, if preserved
whole and in good condition, will keep
good in the most part for long time,
the grape from season to season and
longer. Grain will SO keep for many
generations. Fermentation is the first
process of decay. If left alone in the
first stage-the vinous, or l may say the
alcoholic-it soon passes into the acetous
stage, and thence into the putrefactive.
But for the production of alcoholic
drink, which induces the evils which you
deplore, the article is arrested in the first
or vinous stage. Now, sir, I put it to
your own conscience, is it not strange
perversity of reasoning to defend the use
of this destructive, artificially produced
article, alcoholic drink, on the ground
that it is good creature of God?"

A laboring man need not become a
drunkard to impoverish himself and
family. To drink two or three glasses a
day is sufficient to produce want or a
lack of many comforts of life. Then, in
addition to the loss of the money SO
spent, the continued though moderate
use of the liquor so poisons and under
mines the drinkers constitution that
very often before he has arrived at the
meridian of life he is wornout old
man, a dependent, and his family a bur-
