Republicans Rustling.

A late Aberdeen special to the Min
nespolis Journal says: Col. Dick Woods.
president of the state Republican league,
announces the organization since the
adjournment of the republican state
convention Of nearly 50 clubs, with q
membership of over 100. The total
membership of to-day is not far from
10000. Before election day he predicts
an organization Of nearly 200 leagues
with grand aggregate membership Of
$4,000. The Codinston County Republi,
can Club, with headquarters at Water
town, has nearly 900 members, and
comprises more than 80 per cent Of the
voting population of the county. II is
the banner organization of the kind in
the state. One of the best features Of
tile work is the glee and marching clubs,
which are doing an immense amount Of
good in creating interest add turning
Interest into enthusiasm Regarding
the prospect for the state and legislative
tickets Col. Wood says: II have never
seen the tinne when everything pointed
90 clearly and strongly to an old time
republican victory. The state ticket
will be elected by an increased majority
over that returned two years ago, and
the legislature will be republican and
elect republican senator"

Referring to the failure of the ex-
pected fusion of the dems and pops in
Lawrence county, the Deadwood Times
in its issue appearing on the day follow
ing their conventions, says: Interest
ing times were had yesterday, the two
children were born, and pardon us)their
names are pants" Democratic and
popuist conventions were held and
placed in nomination tickets which will
never see daylight, especially the pop
ticket, while democrats claim they have
fighting show for treasurer and sheriff.
The Times in its issue Of yesterday pre-.
dicted no fusion, which belief was based
upon unreasonable propositions of each
party to tie other A committee from
the democratic convention on the sub
ject Of fusion waited upon the pops at
Central about p. m., and the latter
declaring themselves able to defeat the
republican ticket without the as istance
Of dems, would have no conference with
them-the result being, full tickets
nominated by both parties. Now watch
for the outcome. 1t has often been said,
and is borne out by truth. that even
though republicans make mistakes, their
opponents invariably make greater
ones, and in this case the rule is closely
followed"

Populistic Rula in Colorado

A reliable gentleman Of high char
acter now residing in Denver, who for
many years resided in Iowa, recently
wrote a letter to an old friend in Huron,
touching upon the results Of popuIistic
rule in Colorado, which appears in a
late issue of the IIuronite, from which
we extract the following;
Noticing the resolutions adopted by
your populists that we were dominated
by plutocracy with headquarters in Eu-
rope, | am led to say, yes, with shame
we confess, and we are suffering the
worst financial depression ever known
to the nation because of it. 1t is to be
observed that this domination is only
financial. Bad as that is, to try to es-
cape its fury, you need nc. fly to evils
you know not Of Take warning from
us OF Colorado. who jumped out of the
frying pan into the fire, when we turned
our state over to the populists. Two
years in the school of experience under
their management has taught US that
domination from Europe, bad as it is, is
much more to be preferred than domin-
alton from his satanic majesty by the
hands of the populists. These two years
of suffering at their hands have been
filed with devilish peryerstv and mis-
management. The sum total of all the
evils of our government for the seven
teen previous years is but a small bud
get as compared with those of our two
years Of populist rule. Under their
hands disorder, turbulance, contentious,
fights and riots, reached every corner
and place in our state government, and
in every case this state of disorder has
been of the monkey and parrot style
among their own flock. OF course you
know what kind Of a time they had.
Our executive has been unceasing in his
efforts to teach disregard for law and
order. The pages Of the past
two years are full of just such fool
business in fact no foolish thing possi-
BILE for an administration to do has been
left undone. While we know that there
are some scum and dregs in every
human organization, and, Of course in
our political parties, yet We never found
party that was emphatically all scum
until we struck the populist crowd. The
experience Of our state, and of Kansas
also, is that there can be no expectation
Of an ordinary clean government at
their hands. Either Of the old parties.
with all their defects, are an infinitely
safer way out Of our difficulties than a
pontoon made up Of the slums OF both
parties with few visionary and disap.
pointed office seekers. These things we
have now learned in the bitter school Of
experience, and ut our next election this
whole crowd of populsts are going to be
showed under so deep that they will not
even dream Of resurrection"

Made HIM Look Sheepish.

Huron Huronite: A little inciden.
occurred yesterday that ought to amuse
the friends of South Dakota's Junior
senator. A party was driving a flock
ofsheep down Wisconsin street. Among
the crowd that stood watching them
from the sidewalk was a tall blonde
gentleman having several of the pbysic-
al characteristics Of the populist senator.
Suddenly the flock came to halt, and
turning their faces toward the con
spicuous figure began to bleat in a
chorus that excited the risibilities OF
the crowd. The stranger, whose visage
flushed with a deeper hue than the
normal, was, nevertheless, evidently up
in modern history. Addressing the
flock, he exclaimed "For heavens
sake, don't look at me tnat way. ain.

The resolutions passed at the late

The republican party was directly re-

erraiic and far-fetched resolutions, drag

populistic fusion, can only serve to
amuse and disgust the intelligent reader

Demo pop fusion seems 10 have been
failure in every county in the Hills
The reason for failure have been varied
In one, or more instances the pops were
anxious to combine, while the dems
were unwilling to unite. In other
instances the pops were unwilling tc
entertain any proposition whatever
looking to the formation Of combine,
while the democrats were willing TO join
issues. In one or two counties both
parties were anxious to fuse, but failure
to agree upon the terms defeated the
object. IL is now very probable that

| When q newspaper, for the purpose
Of defaming an opposing political party
comes out in cold type with proclama-
tion misrepresenting the financial status
Of the county in which IL is located, to
its detriment, such paper cannot other
wise be considered than detrimental to
the best interests OF the masses. and
wholly unworthy of public support, and
hereafter, as in the past, the CHRONICLE
will at all times be found ready to resist
whatever unjust charges may be brought
against this community from any source,
local or otherwise. Were it deemed
necessary TO give the required space. we
could easily show by facts and figures
that Custer county has better financial
standing than any other Black Hills
county. but as we have already shown
the fallacy of the allegations Of the
Leader, we deem it unnecessary, and
we therefore submit the matter 10 the
thoughtful considerationofan Of an intelligent
public, who we feel confident are too
wise to be hoodwinked by the silly rot
disbed up for party purposes to the
detTimcn. OF the material interests Of
the people upon whom he is dependent
for support.
The Leader is unfortunate in having
selected Custer county as the OBJ
ject Of its ruthless censure. and the
CHRONICLE would therefore suggest the
advisabilty Of its turning its attention
to Kansas, Colorado, North Carolina,
North Dakota, or any other state that
has been afflicted by populist rule, if it
is inclined to expose the maladministra-

Little Falls weekly transcript., 1894-10-12

Mr.. Webb, Of the Travellers Acct
dent Insurance company, was speak
ing of the different losses paid by the
company. He says that during the
hard times some people seem to
make a business of accident insur-
ance. That is they carry insurance
and get injured just often enough to
make it support them. He related
an instance OF Il man in the southern
part of the state who drew on the
Travellers for a large claim. They
thought there was something the
matter and employed q detective to
look it up, whereupon they found
that the fellow would injure himself
slightly by accident and then poison
the wound thus keeping himself laid
up for several weeks. He carried a
policy OF $4,000 in the Travellers and
a like policy in another accident
company. He. therefore drew S2o
per week from each company and
had a nice income. They found ont
he had been at the business for
wears, but let him go, failing, how
ever to pay him the amount OF his
last policy.

A short time since Il gentleman OF
this city had a law suit with some
Grow Wing county parties In which
he came off victorious. 1t seemed to
make them pretty sore, and the
other day they hired Il man and sent
him down to utilize the Little Falls
man in fixing up u sickeninG spec
tacle, He found him, announced his
business, and said. he preferred to he
alone with the l.. +. man. The place
selected for the scrap was red barn
back of John Rassier's shop. They
went in the barn, shut the door. and
q few minutes later the man from
Grow Wing county came out yelling,
'.enuugh." The blood was running
from his nose in a stream, and his
face looked as if a horse had kicked
him, while the l.. F. man didn't have
a scratch. They walked down the
alley together and the fellow who
got what he deserved hitched upand
went home.

The ten mile race between Will A.
Smith, OF Minneapolis, and ten Lit
tie Falls men, took place at the
opera house Friday night and re-
suited in a victory for the boys, much
to the surprise of all. Smith was to
run ten miles while the ten men ran
a mile .euch. The opera house Is a
good sized one, it being twenty laps
to the mile and the time made was
as follows: 49,

E. Gravel, 500; Peter Vasaly, $50; F.
Neuman, $40; O. Grassland, 5:4o'
The combined time OF the ten was
1926.
Before the meC's running race
there was a two mile race between
six boys, for a silver napkin rlnS'
1t was won by Del. Batters in l2:l5.
Alex Van Praag, and son gave a
.1eel-and-toe walking exebition.
After the race Mr.. Smith said 1t
was the best team he had ever run
against and that he was much sur
prised at the result. He was beaten
fair and was as good natured after
the race as before.
Mr.. Smith will run a similar race
at Royalton this evening.
