dred years and the cables will be practically inn
perishabe. You imagine the perfect service

D. The Detroit Telephone Company has enthusiastic
public and popular support. Think OF a metallic
circuit telephone in your house for % dollars year
or in your office for 40 dollars year! No wonder
the telephone subscribers increasing at the rate

why there will not be 10000 Detroit Telephone sub

There is no use in the Republican
party trying to carry South Dakota this
fall on a state platform declaring une-
quivocally for a single gold standard,
and the sooner they get the fact through
their heads the better for the party
Castalia Republican.
Well, supposing that you carry South
Dakota on silver standard what are
you going to do about it when you get
it? Does our contemporary wish to infer
that if the South DAKOTA Republicans
repndiate the st. Louis financial plank
that it sounds the death knell OF the
gold standard? Has it got an idea in its
head that it can elect Mckinley and not
his Platform? The National platform
is supposed to be the voters guidance
and mol that of a single state and an in
significant state at that. The Republi-
can admits that its party is dead wrong
on the most vital issue of the day, yet it
assumes that if its party in the state
will just say they are not in accord with
the st. Louis platform the people will
give them the offices and assert in per-
petuating that which itself condemns.

The modern photograph is a work Of
art; and the preparation for having ones
photograph taken Is also highly ar
tistic proceeding, requiring, according
to up to-date ideas, deal of forethought
and the aid of the highest aesthetic
training. Whether woman be btautl-
full or not. she is not to be blamed for de-
string to appear at her best in her
counterfeit present.; and now that even
the Jack Of beauty may be compensated
by graceful posing and becoming dress,
the PLAIN woman may have a pleasing
and even pretty photo If she will but
heed the dicta of those versed in art. An
article in Demorest's Magazine for July,

somo of the secrets Of the up-to-date ar

The sa,.,e ola stor.

Sioux City Journals A poor, over
worked aud half starved woman, with
her three hungry children, arrived in
town Yesterday on the afternoon train
from the south. One of her children, a
little boy about ten wears old. had his
face and head wrapped in bloody band
age, and blood was dribbllng from his
open mouth and bleeding lips. He ap-
peared to be suffering from severe in
jury, aud he was ordered taken to the
police station in the ambulance. DR..
Henry being called, said he found that
the boy had fractured lower jaw. which
some physician had made a mere pre-
tense of setting, and he ordered him TAX
en to the hospital.
When the poor mother. whose name is
Mrs. Nelson Battles, with her little child
in her arms, was told Of this she at once
began to cry. The story she told to a
reporter was pitifu1 one. Not quite
two years ago her husband owned 100
acre farm in Brule county near Puk-
wana, S. D. The farm was without in
cumbrance, and they were perhaps as
prosperous as the average South Dakota
farmer. But the grasping southern
land agent came and destroyed their
real happiness by telling them vision
arv story Of the wonderfully fertile lands
in Arkansas. He described in glowing
terms the way the crops would grow if
il only the hand of the farmer touched
the soil. Water was abundant, lie said
and all they had to do was to plant the
seed. So they sold their South Dakota
farm for $3.50 and paid every cent of this
to the southern land agent for 16Oacres
of Arkansas dirt. But when they ar
rived there. the vision vanished in the
red clay and stony fields of an Arkansas
desert. No water was to be found and
this the woman said through her tears,
"the soil wasn't fit for raising heans."
So this spring the family started in
their wagon for their old home in South
Dakota. They were without a cents of
money and the long Journey was full of
hardship and suffering, with starvation
staring them in the face each day. All
went without accident until about three
miles Of Mondamin, Ia, when the little
boy was kicked in the jaw by horse.
Several teeth were Knocked out and the
lower jaw broken. The family proceeded
to the town, where the sympathy of the
people was aroused for the family and a
subscription list was started. Sufficient
money was raised to buy ticket for the
wife and her children to lakwana, and
to procure medical attendance for the
injured boy. Then they came to Sioux
CITY while the husband is now on his
way with the wagon. Now Mrs. Battles
will have to go on, leaving her boy be-
hind in the hospital and her husband
slowly making his way in The wagon.

The Republican free silver sheets OF
this state that have for a year or more
tried to make their readers believe that
drouths. hot winds, poor crops, black-lrg
foot-rot and scab were all due to the
Wall street shylocks, are now claiming
that the money question isn't Of any
account anyway. Evidently Senator
Quay, the great Pennsylvania, isn't a
subscriber. He SAYS the issue of the
campaign will be the currency exclus-

looks that way. And it will be that way
to dead certainty if the Chicago con-

They do not believe the lowering OF the

duced the prices Of al! agricultural pro.
