WHAT have the Democrats done for

WHAT have the Democrats done fol
the country, since their party was ele,
waited to power On its positive promise
to correct specific abuses and enact
legislation needed to maintain the
prosperity OF the country, asks the
New York Herald.
As to the tariff Its answer is suggest
i've. We were promised that the McKin
ley bill should be repealed by the first
day of March. Manufacturing and
business have been held in suspense,
and hundreds of thousands of work
men stand idle and hungry pending a
settlement of this vital issue; but the
first of March has come and gone, and
the people today have no more idea
of what the tariff is to be than thew
had when Congress assembled three
months ago. Merchants who approved
of the Chicago platform and assisted
to put the Democrats in power, as they
view their stores of unsold goods and
note the outflow of gold, are asking
What the Democrats have done for the
country? Manufacturers who supposed
the were voting for prompt supply of
free raw materials, as they now survey
their idle mills, are asking it, and,
above all, the vast army OF toilers
whose ballots were cast for the Demo
cratic party under the impression that
it would speedily remove burdens from
the shoulders of labor, are now, with
special bitterness, asking it.
What have the Democrats done Tor
country The answer is not far to
seek, and the majority il Congress
must be deaf indeed if they fail to hear
the ominous murmurs that are rising
around them.

The original Free Trade man, u
Frank Hurd, of Toledo, Ohio says
that Governor Mckinley is logically
the candidate to be named for the
Presidency by the Republican party
in 1896. He does not attempt to say
who is the logical candidate of the
Democratic party for the same place
and his omission is perfectly under
standable. The logical candidate OF
a party who supports the Wilson
absurdity would be queer exemplar
OF logic indeed while the logical
candidate of genuine Free Trade, il
he exists either out Of temerity Or
modesty refuses or neglects to show
his face. Ii is really unfair of Hurd
anyhow to sound that word logic in
Democratic ears just now.

Sensational, But Sensible.

A marked departure from established
custom, however sensible and advantage
GUS 1t may be, will always meet with
more or less public criticism for time,
hence il is by no means surprising that
the sensible style of apparel worn by
the lady tourists who arrived here on
Tuesday from Hot Springs on horseback,
dressed in their divided skirts, and
comfortably seated bestride their spirit
ed animals should produce a sensation,
and encounter more or less criticism in
place where such an awful sight was
never before witnessed. This modern
reform, as it ay be fittingly termed, is
rapidly growing in public favor in the
east, and in time will 70 doubt be sane.
toned by universal adoption. The
ladies' OF the party, all Of whom are of
undoubted moral character, nnquestion-

X. Blodgett. Julia G, and Lulu s. Cald-

visited the celebrated Wind Cave, where
they remained over night, reaching this
place on Tuesday evening, more than
delighted with the pleasures incident to
their mountain ride from Wind Cave to
this city. They found the best Of ac-
modations at the Kleemann House,
where they put up for the night, de-
parting early on Wednesday morning
for Sylvan lake and Harvey Peak, ac-

Webster and Mrs II. H. Tamlynn of
this city, the two first named being
cousins of the Misses Blodgett of the
equestrian party. Mrs. Blodgett and
daughter Amy, who came in on the
train to join the party at this place, also
accompanied them en- their trip to the

to this city on Thursday evening, after
having visited all of the various points

as being more than pleased with what

SUNDAY at the l,ake

In addition to the considerable num-
ber of people from abroad who are sum-
mering at Sylvan lake, there were few
of our citizens who spent last Sunday at

who furnished the CHRONICLE with q
brief account of the doings of the day,
was q visitor with his family. There
being, as yet, no church established
there. and being desirous of manifesting
proper degree Of reverence and re-
spsct for the Sabbath, it was decided to
hold a union Sabbath school, which was
accordingly done, with an attendance

Populistic Perfidy.

A Topeka, Kansas, special to the
Omaha World-Herald, would indicate
that all of the perfidious official conduc,
in this country, concerning which there
is such loud complaint on the part OF
the populists, is not confined, as they
would have us believe, to the old parties:
Topeka, kas.. Aug. 6.-At a populist
meeting held in the district court room
to- night speeches were made denounc-
ing Governor Lewelling and the populist
state administration. The following
resolutions were adopted
Whereas. 1t is well known that the
police departments of the cities of the
first class, under the direct control oil
Governor Lewelling. are organized to
protect and encourage saloons, Joints
and dives and houses OF prostitution
and it is also believed by the residents
of said cities that such encouragement
Is given in order that those in authority
may levy tribute upon those in charge
OF such dives and brothels for their own
personal gain, in absolute disregard oil
the laws of the state and public decency
and morility, and as an evidence of sucl,
general belief We cite the letter Of AS.
sociate Justice Allen to Lieutenant Gov.
ernor Daniels; therefore be it
Resolved, by the populists ofShawnee

We demand that the populist state cen

The local pot political Is slowly sim

tions Of reaching the boiling point In
the indefinite and ambiguous after

nevertheless apparent that there is a
vast amount Of quiet work being done
by anxious asprants for official posi-

at this time to determine the relative

For many years the gardeners Of the
Black Hills have been seriously dam
aged by what is known ~ the cabbage
flea, small black insect that preys upon
cabbage, lettuce and other plants to
their utter destruction. Many remedies
have been rssorted to with little If any
effect, and the result has been. that but
few vegetables Of this character could
be grown In this locality. Mr.. H. b,
Swain has determined remedy which
he claims to be infallible. which We
gladly submit TO the public for trial next

THE TIDE TURNING.

The tide of migration is rapidly turn
ing. Large numbers Of undesirable
foreigners are taking advantage of the
reduced steerage rates and are now re-
turning to the place of their nativity in
the south and east of Europe. This
exodus may not be wholly attributed to
the low rate of transportation, as it is
apparent to the most casual observer
that the industrial conditions existing
in this country is the chief factor in
producing this gratifying result 1t is a
matter for congratulation that among
the mutitudinous adverse consequences
resulting from the late national defeat
of the republican party, that there is at
least one pleasing feature in connection
with its innumerable unfortunate results.
1t is indeed gratifying at this time, when
republican Legislation is out of the
question, that the democratic party, not
outstanding the incalculable injury they
have brought upon the country, have at
least been inadvertently instrumental
in placing check upon the great rush
Of foreigners into this country who in
many instances have not a proper re.
gard for our laws, and are practically
| untitled for the duties Of American cit
, izenship. 1t is to be most devoutly
desired that the exodus of this class of
foreigners out of the country, and the
ratio Of decrease in the number Of the
arrivals of this class upon our shores,
may be maintained until the republican
party shall have been again restored TO
power, when proper restrictions may be
placed upon immigration, u consumma-
ton which may not be confidently ex-
pected at the hands of any ether exist
ing party.
1t is the hope and belief OF the writer
that there will be engrafted into the
next national platform Of the republican
party, an emigration plank so broad and
definite in its purpose, as to leave no
doubt in the mind of the voter as to the
policy of the party upon this vital ques-
ton, upon which, in our humble opin-
ion, hinges TO q very great extent, the
future welfare of the laboring classes in
this country. The labor question in this
country has become one of vital import
ance and deep significance. and may
fairly be conceded to be the problem of
the period. Its solution is being ardent
ly sought, and is to-day leading and
pressing theme OF economic thought,
which may only be satisfactorily reach.
ed by stringent legislation that will keep
ont Of this country the foreign anarchic
and pauper element, to whose presence
is due the labor troubles which have
become so serious in character as to
excite feeling approaching alarm in
numerous localities throughout the
country.
1t will be period for general rejoic-
ing when the slums of Europe shall be
excluded from this glorious republic,
and the prestige OF American citizenship
shall be elevated thereby to a standard
it occupied in the hylcyon days of the
IN 'sty, but unforgotten past. All reli-
able signs point to republican success in
the next national contest, in which
event there need be no shadow Of fear
entertained of the happy solution of the
much mooted labor question by the
potential method above indicated.
