tive in several particulars, failing to
comply with the requirements Of the

A POPULAR ClrcuS.

Wherever the New Great Syndicate
shows and Paris hlppodrome has ex-
hibited this year, 1T has drawn crowded
tents. thus proving that the new organl-
cation has secured the public's fullest
approval. The new organization is COM
posed OF the very best and most widely
experienced showmen of both Europe
and America, and is under the capable
direction OF Mr.. j. N. Rentfrow, a mana
ger OF extensive experience and premln-
ent ability. AS per press notices OF all
cities where it has exhibited, the show is
one OF the best that travels and has
firmly established It's reputation to pre-
sent one OF the very best and cleanest
entertainments. The circus is given
simultaneously in three rings and on
two celebrated stages. The hippolrome
track is a quarter OF a mile around,
which encircles the rings and is used for
the races and Olymplan sports.
The menagerid department is very fine
embracing a large and costly variety OF
wild beasts. One of It's most interesting
features is a flock Of huge African
ostrlches, which the management pur-
chased and imported after a costly out
lay. The Great Syndicate show IS the
only circus exhibiting such a feature.
This show exhibits at Rapid City Mon

and In consequence Of this narrow edu-
cation we find but few persons who have
acquainted themselves with the dis
graceful final OF this farce. And now

higher civilization which providence has
IN store for us IN the near future, and
which Fuller and his INSCRIPTIONS clau
are only Fastening by their futile at
tempts to retard progress IN this line.
We have said much more now than we
had thought OF doing at the outset, but
we do not feel like closing without eu-
~logizlng the teachers and the pupils of
the public schools Of your citv, who, by
their efforts, contributed SO much and
so pleasantly to the exercises Of the day,
we are pleased to see the youth educated
to acknowledge that we, as a nation,
are and ever will be indebted to the GAL
liant men who sacrificed property, happy
homes, and ali that a dear to them,
and !eopardlzed their lives that we
might enjoy the blessings vouchsafed us
by our forefathers, but again We feel I'M
PEELED to criticize, this time the drilleven
if it is but a broom brigade, it always
CRATES upon our nerves to see or zeal Of
this drilling OF the youths of our land in
the arts Of war. Before going anyfurther
we want to beg an apology OF the young
surfing her that this is not intended for a
personal criticism, as we have only COM
mendation to offer to any teacher who
studies to excel in the art, but on &C.
count OF the tendency to want to intro
duce this drill and the attempt IN some
OF our states to compel, by act OF legls-
lature, military drill with all male pu-
pills eleven years OF age and over in our
puDilC SCuOOlS, we Cllllk ~ Is ulSu UlIne
all good citizens would demonstrate by
voice and pen throughout the length and
breadth Of our land. We certainly have
had evidence enough during the past
two or three years that the effect of
this enforced military drill Is to protect
capital in it's encoachments upon the
rights of our citizens who create wealth
by their labor. Let us ever raise a
warning voice on this subject. The fact
that the psalmist declared BLESSED be
the Lord, any strength, which teachlth
my hands to war and my fingers to
fight" is no argument, that we should
teach our children the art OF shedding
their brothers blood. War was a part
of the Jewish economy, but certainly
not OF this Christian era. Isaiah pro-
phesying OF Christ and his kindom de-
clares, ''apd they shall beat their swords
into ploughshares and their spears into
pruning hooks, nation shall not lift mp
sword against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more" Christ the great
teacher says, "For all they that take
the sword shall perish with the sword"

EDITOR OF THE UNION.

EDITOR OF THE UNION.
We were permitted the pleasure Of
being present at the exercises held in
Library hall on May 80, Decoration
day, and must confess that with but
one or two exceptions we were pleas
antly entertained. The address bv Rev.
Clevenger, the speaker of the hour, was
able, truthful, and patriotic, equal to
any we nave listened to in this line dur
ing u sojourn Of twelve years in the
Black Hills country.
We hope, however, the reverend GEN
tleman will not feel that we are indulg-
ing in a personal criticism when we
design to differ with him in one remark
made by him. one too, that was Justify
cheered by the audience generally, viz,
the remark referring to the constitution
OF the United States as OF "Divine ORR
gin" or as nearly inspired as an instru-
ment could be emanating from human
minds. Of course we do not for a nom
ent think that the speaker would con-
tend the aforesaid document WAS other
than an imperfect human document, for
various reasons. The first and chief one
being It's failure to acknowledge the
sovereignty Of that being Except INFER
e%ntially) whom alone could Undue 1T
with inspiration. With the additional
evidence that it has proven necessary to
add fifteen amendments to the docu-
ment since first executed, with an urgent
demand Tor another important one, we
do net deny but that the declaration Of
principles enumerated in tho cOnstitu-
ton OF the United States if practiced.
would enable us as a nation to MAKE
rapid strides toward that state OF civil
liZatiOn which we must attain before we
can expect to witness the full emancipa-
ton Of the human race. We cannot
but think, however, that an education
that carries with 1T the conviction that
our constitution. or any other human
document must be accepted as infallible,
does not insure to the possessor those
high and pure elements OF character
necessary to constitute true patriotism.
We are not alone in tile opinion that
the constant Haunting OF the Federal con-
stitution as the palladium OF our liber-
ties, proves too often a barrier to pro-
gress, and is the great ally OF the pri-
vileged class of our nation today in
their determined effort to enslave the
producing class. We find them con
stantly taking refuge behind the consti-
tuition, or if not behind it, behind the
Interpretation given by corrupt courts,
which to the mass Of our citizens is con-
elusive evidence that it's principles have
been violated. For proof of this we
have only to cite you such notable cases
at the bred Scott dc cision in 1857. The
actions of public officials during the fire.
quent struggles OF the laborers to throw
off the oppressors yoke in the Home
stead, Pullman and other great strikes,
terminating in the shameful lmprison-

violation Of the constitution, charges
which they could not nor dared not at
tempt to sustain in the courts, yet on
