THE Populists have no abler exponent
than General Wesver. He holds the
Republican party responsible for the
hard times. He says that party 10 'like
the thief who swore his crime on an in.
nocent third party, then claimed the re.
ward offered for the apprehension OF the
criminal. The Republican party" he
says, ''is directly responsible for every
existing law against which people COM
plain, and for every law on the statute
books when the hard times came" Cut
this oa., our Populist friend; paste 1t in
your hat, old Hobo, and fling it at the
Republican orator who talks to you
about Cleveland, or the Democrats,

A LIST of about 125 alleged false regis-
trations has been furnished by the board
of supervisoro and published elsewhere
in today's HERALD. With total regis
trstion of about 10000 we consider this
number of irregular entries as very small,
and the figurea will not reach tae al
legged amount of 125. for many of the
names upon the list have a right to be
there, but are misspslled. or the wrong
address given, which is the fault of the
hobo deputies who are hired by Re-

they care about is the per capita income,

them will be corrected when the list is

Transit company and was refused.
! The official to whom he applied told
him that no man who had ever served
on labor committees would be given
employment.
Charles Mailer, fireman and en-
gineer, and member of the American
Railway union came next. He was
dismissed June % from the Pennsyl'
wanna lines and knew that he was
blacklisted because general super
intendent had told a friend of the
witness that ne could not get work.
Mr.. Mailer said the working men
would have no confidence in perm

elected or appointed for each case.
"These officials get too far away from
the people, said he.
Vice President Howard of the
American Railway union was recalled.
Mr.. Howard desired to call the COM
MISSIONS attentian to two facts: The
United States government was now
blacklisting or boycotlipg 5000 ex-
employees of the Union Pacific
railroad because of their connection
with the American Railway union and
that the railroads of the country were
threatening to boycott the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas road unless it with.
drew its present low rate to Washing
ton. "We think that if the govern
ment can keep it's hands off the rail.
ways and let them settle their differ
ences by boycotting or any way they
please it should keep its hands off the
employees as we'll" A burst of ap.
plause from the audience greeted this
sentiment. The audience today was
larger than at sny previous session.
The court room was almost filled, all
seats being filled and many persons
standing, 1t is probable that the
question of the extent of the jurisdic-
ton of the commission will come up
before the end of the investigation.
In the afternoon the principal wit
ness was w. H. Carwardine, pastor
of the Methodist church at Pullman.
His evidence consisted chiefly OF
history of the strike, which he de-
clared would never have occurred had
Pullman reduced rents when he re"
duced wages. The witness became
indignant when asked # he was an
anarchist. He denied it with en-
phasis. There will be no afternoon
session of the commission tomorrow
and the first witness Monday will be
Eugene V, Debs.

DALLAS, Tex, Aug. 17.-As soon as
CuIberson was nominated yesterday
the delegates TO the state convention,
or at least number OF them, turned
their backs on the convention hall,
and taking passage on outgoing
trains are today at home with their
families. With the conclusion of the
gubernatorial race and the adoption
of the platform, much of the interest
of the occasion was gone, and as the
delegates were eight to room and
81 so per day each in the pockets of
the hotel men, they naturally turned
their ears to that old and sweet hymn,
"There's no place like home" There
were q number of empty seats at last
nights meeting, and when the con-
vention was called to order this mOrn-
ing at 10 O'Clock by Chairman Handy
there was still larger humber of
vacancies in the chairs, indicative of
the flight of the now thoroughly tired
delegates. Almost all West Texas
delegates have gone to their fireaides
and that part Of the ball is vacant.
They left proxies, however, and one
man is now the proud possessor of the
proxy of about 40 counties which he
votes promiscuOusly and changes
whenever the feeling overcomes him.
The morning session opened up by
Norman g. Ktttrell of Huntsville ask.
log for q contribution from the co1'
vention to build a monument in Dali
las in memory of the Confederate
soldiers. The hat was passed around
and about 500 secured.

tions being closed the ballot was slowly
called off amidst much confusion. AS
soon as list was finished, and before
the votes could be cast up the cOun"
ties began changing their votes. The
first county to change was little
one vote county in North Texas, but
in changing from Virgins to Finley
the chairman of the delegation made
q grandstand play and it had it's ef-
feet. With the first change the con-
vention almost to man sprang upon
the chairs and benches and began
hallooing for the various candidates.
The Finley men had the bit between
their teeth, however, and were lead
ing the hurrah game. Counties
changed rapidly from Virgins and
Henderson to Finley, each change
being accompanied by a terrific yell.
The changes were hurled through the
air 80 rapidly that the secreta'
ry lost all count of the vote. During
the pandemonium Mr.. Gregory rueh-

there.

The press Of the Black Hills is quite
unanimous in demanding IL fair deal
from the state i'll distributing the state
conventions among the cities. If Hot
Springs fails in getting the convention
this year we believe that a systematic
effort should be put forth toward Sc
curing the convention of each political
party in two years. True it's early, and
seemingly untimely. to speak of it, but
by securing Il general understanding
this year from the committeeman and
prominent men of the state that their
party will favor coming to the Hills. we
believe there would be no trouble in
securing each convention. If each
will come the fear of political capital
being made out of ''going so far away
from u majority of the voters will be
groundless. Each should certainly be
willing to come. Letthe Hills commit
teemen from each party work upon
this plan from the time they r chosen
as committeeman and we believe the
Black Hills will get the three state con-
ventions.

Legal matters must be rather dull
over at Sioux Falls. They have gotten
up a mock trial, charging a preacher
with stealing chickens. They antici-
pate a great deal of sport over it, and
will surely have it. But there is
something funny about this after all.
At a mass meeting of the citizens the
other evening we are told that a reso-
luton was introduced to the effect that
it was the sense of the citizens that the
state and city laws should be enforced
and that legal proceedings should be
instituted at once. The resolution was
promptly voted down. Now, not having
legal problems sufficient to keep their
time fully coupled, they resort to a
mock trial. But then that's their
business-or pleasure; we simply men,
ton it that others may also smile.

TELEPHONES.
ventiOnS.

Complete telephones. including call
bells, transmitter and receiver, are now
being manufactured and sold for $3.50
each. Business houses and residences
a now be connected at II mere nomi-
nal cost. People of Deadwood ought
to take steps to erect a new telephone
system of their own. An exchange
could be established and every resi-
dence and every business house con
nected with it at u cost not to exceed
81 per month for each instrument for
the first year. and 81 per month there
after. If the different towns would 20
operate. the people of the Black Hills
would have u much more perfect tele-
phone system than the present one, and
at a small fraction of the present cost
The rates charged by the present mo-
nopoly r so high that it is only the
rich who are able to have telephones in
houses or offices.-Deadwood Indepen-
dent.
We are strictly in accord with the
ideas above expressed. For that reason
w believe the new company that asks
for a franchise from the city for put
ting in a telephone system should be
granted it. But we do believe the rates
should be specified in the ordinance.
Yet we are inclined to believe that the
rates for a few years. after the first,
might be sl.5O a month, which would
be reasonable. But the council GER
tainly ought to make use of its rights,
and in accordance with all custom, es-
'tablish q rate of charges.
