wonder that you who knew him there, and
had learned to depend upon his skill, seem
all adiift, now that he has left us. How
kind of hCalt lie was, ard every ready TO

cool of the day, at the setting of the sun, he
be silently deposited in the tomb, where dust
and ashes commingle with earth"

No Palmer Ticket.

The following resolution was passed
at conference of the sound money
democrats at Huron on Thursday Of last
week:
Resolved, That we proudly proclaim
allegiance to the principles adopted and
promulgated at the Inianapois conven-
ton that to further the cause of honest
money, the maintenance of the national
honor and integrity and to promote to
the extent of our ability the future well
fare and prosperity of this nation, We
deem 1t best not TO place an electoral
ticket before the electors of the state in
support of the presidential nominees of
the national democratic party; that we
earnestly recommend the organization
ofa sound money democratic club in
each county in the state.
The reason for not putting a Palmer
ticket in the field is indicated in the
following Watertown dispatch of the
4th inst: "Hon. John b. Henten, re-
ceiver of the United States land Office,
in commenting on meeting Of the
National Democrats" at Huron this
week, said the reason ticket was not
put in the field Was that the majority OF
the sound money democrats desired to
vote for Mckinley, and although they
had petitions nominating electors and
other officers ready to file, they did not
file them. The conference determined
to proceed at once to organize sound
money clubs among the democratic
voters of the state with the understand.
ing that its members may feel free to
vote directly for Mckinley or to refrain
from voting at all on national issues"

The Buffalo Gap Republican favors
the passage of a law by our state legs-
lature, making the interest on county
warrants payable annually in cash, the
funds required for such purpose to be
obtained by special levy. Upon first
thought, this would seem to be very
proper thing to do, as it would give a
par value to all warrants issued under
its provisions, giving to them the status
of bond. The advantages resulting
from this rise in the marked value of
warrants are manifold and important,
and being we'll understood, require no
mention here. Whether or not it
might be deemed advisable to attempt
to pass q law of this character could
only be determined by more thorough
study of the subject than we have given
it, in any event we agree with the Re,
publican in the statement that the
matter is of sufficient Importance "a
