That the republican party OF South
Dakota is party that will not submit
to bossism, no matter how high in au-
thority the would be boss may have
been placed, was clearly and unmls-
,akably proclaimed last Wednesday
afternoon by the state convention as
sembled at Huron. An attempt had
been made by some Of the leading poll
,icians to swing the state to Davis or
Allison, or anywhere from Mckinley,
but The great mass of people were arous-
ed and determined that their voice
should be heard and the men whom
they should elect to ST. Louis should be
their servants and not their masters.
The convention was the largest and most
enthusiastic ever held in the state, and
the fact that 1t was unanimously for
Mckinley and almost as unanimously
for sound money made it harmonious
one. The action of the convention was
severe rebuke to the position assumed
by Senator Pe,,igrew on the money
question, and shows that he has been
misrepresenting the republican senti
ment Of the state in his free silver votes
and talk. Ills position on this question
he was publicly compelled to renounce,
and pledge himself to stand ON the re-
publican national platform before the
convention would allow him the privi-
lege OF going to st. Louis. Even when
he had done this and was tied hand and
foot there was strong sentiment in the
convention To turn him down, and he
was the only one OF the delegates who
was elected by acclama,ion TO whom
there was an opposing vote of mo

PUBLIC SYMPATHY WITH klPUlNG.
Feared That the Balestier Complication
Mny Drive Him From tho CountrY

Brattleboro VT. May 1.-THE story of
the arrest of Beatty S. Balestier for as
Sault and threatening to kill his brother
in-law, G. Rudyard Kipling, was widely
discussed here yesterday and reporters are
active In their efforts to get at the details
of tho affair.
The many friends of Kipling feel that
he was justified in his course. II Is known
that for several weeks the relations be-
tween the two men have not been of the
most cordial description, the trouble aris-
ing from a misunderstanding on the part
of BaleStier, who IL said often to carry his
whims and extremes, In his business re-
lations with the young author.
Mr.. Kipling lives within a stones throw
of Balestier their farms forming portion
of the j. n. Balestier estate Mr.. Kipling
purchased his house plot from young Bal
esther, and complications grew out OF this
purchase. Ralestier objected to Kipling's
system of sewerage and demanded that it
be removed Threatening letters were
sent 10 kipling, and other tantalizing
means were employed to annoy him, final
ly eliminating in assaults and threats to
kill.
Balestier is addicted to intemperance
and Is not always responsible for his ac-
tons, and it was probably under the in
huence OF liquor that the offence was
committed Kipling, on the other hand
20 i"Vt' sen .ieflaniy ielloW, VINO would
be almost the last person in the world to
provoke an assault.
Public sympathy Is largely with him
IN this matter and there is general inter-
est In the trial, which Is set down for Tues
day before Justice Newton here, though
there is doubt about it's taking place, for
1t is thought that neither party will care
10 have the details of this unfortunate
affair heard in court.
1t Is possible that the counsel for bor n
parties, Hasltns and Stoddard for Kiplinp
and Waterman, Martin and Hit for Bal
estier, will advise settlement out of
court. 1t is feared that this unfortunate
case may be the means of driving Mr..
kipins out of the country, in order that
ne may avoid Misunderstanding in the
future

hearted, likes a good time, and generally
gets II, much to his sisters (Mrs. Kipling)
dispeastire.
Recently Balestier got into financial diff
fculties. and Kipling, with brothcrly kind
ness, offered to straighten out his affairs
If he would look to the better things Of

Don't Know Anything.

Last Thursday delegation Of tenn
perance men headed by Rev. II. d.
Fisher called on Governor Morrill, and
Attorney General Dawes and asked
that some changes be made In the PO-
lice Boards at LesVenWorth and Atch
ison and that some effort be made to
enforce the law In those cities. 1t Is q
notorious fact that drinking places In
large numbers run wide open continu-
ously In both cities. No paper in either
city even pretends that any effort Is
made to interfere with the unlawful
traffic. The LesVenWorth Times carries

would pay to advertise q business that
they were not engaged In. Plenty of
evidence that the towns In question
are running wide open iS obtslnsble,

of liquors are being publicly sold.
This committee which called on
them received little satisfaction. Both |
officers assured the committee that
they knew of no violations Of the law
in those cities; that the reports they
received did not indicate that the law
was being violated and that the Police
BosrdsEin.t those cities were doing their

The facts seem to be that Morrill, and
Leland have promised the whisky

those cities and that on account of

promise. It Is lamentable that he
should be so faithful In his promises

INGERSOLL AT THE STATE UNIVERSITY.
The members of the senior law class
at the Kansas State University have
decided to invite Robert G. IngeTsoll
to address the class at the next COM
mencement, and the press is now spec
ulating on the question of whether the
faculty of the institution will interfere
with the plans of the class and forbid
the lecture by Ingersoll, as did the
faculty of the Missouri State UniVer-
slty q few weeks ago.
If the faculty is contemplating any
such interference, it is not only pre-
Stunning a good deal, but 1t is putting
itself In q position that will appear
ridiculous In the future, if it bars In
gersoll from the auditorium on account
of his religious or nOn-religious views.
1t is true that Col. IngerSoll Is great
way behind the times politically. In
truth. he might be called a political
hesthen, were it not for the fact that
he knows better than he talks and acts
politically. AS it is, he Is to the polit-
ical world what the old blue-stocking is
to the religious world. His profession
and his social surroundings have kept
him in the ranks Of a political Or
gsnizstion whose mistakes would sup
ply the Colonel with q new lecture
each day for century. Yet he over
looks all these mistakes and confines
his lectures to the mistakes Of Moses,
and similar subjects.
Still in spite Of all his political short
comings, Col. Ingersoll is great ora
tor and q great lawyer, and 1t is quite
fitting that he should be called upon to
address q class in law. The students
doubtless want him to talk about law,
and not about religion or politics. We
hope the faculty will not put itself on
q level with Missouri by forbidding
the lecture the law students have
undertaken to arrange for, unless they
can find q better reason for doing so
than that which prompted the Missouri
professors.
