An Open Letter.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.

A.. Milo BENNETT, ESQ,
Dear Sir: l congratulate our country
that there is one man who understands
the true inwardness of the iniquity Of this
sound money swindle. The question is
now how much stuff (whether gold, silver,
paper, copper OF. nickel) is passing around
among our people under the false pretense
of being money, when. in fact it is moth
ing of the kind. Cleveland, Carlisle,
Sherman aud that ilk are loud in their
claim that there is now more silver money
IN circulation than ever before in our
history, when the fact is there is not a
single dollar Of silver money either in cir.
culation now and being coined. That
only is money which the country coming
it can use in the payment Of it's debts.
And under rulings and practice of the
Cleveland, Carlisle and John Sherman
syndicate this government cannot pay
one dollar or one dime Of its thousands of
millions Of dollars Of bonded Indebtedness
or interest thereon in any silver dollars
GudL hEC COluCu duO
What kind of money is that which a
country may coin to pass among its peo-
pie under false pretenses as money, and
yet really such trash that the same gov
ernment cannot paw single dollar Of its
vast bonded indebtedness with it? The
whole truth in a nutshell is: all except
gold that now passes as money is not
money at all. and if we now had So, 600,
O00, coo in silver in the vaults Of the
United States treasury, the vast govern
ment indebtness to bondholders would
continue to draw interest from the gov.
erament. and would be powerless to pay
one dime Of it with that vast amount OF
exactly the same kind Of silver money as
is aow in circulation.
All the silver men ask is that this gov
ernMent neither coin for themselves nor
for any Of its people anything Of gold
aud silver except money-not quarter OF
half or three.quarter money. but full
money; such only MS it will receive for
its dues and such only MS 1t will, when il
pleases. pay out to the coin bondholders
as to the pensioner and laborer.
What kind Of money is that for gov
ernment to coin that it can only take in
but cannot, pay out? And if money is
honest and sound for a government TO
pay out for labor, why not lust as honest
to pay out for interest on principal on
bonds: EDWIN A. BURLINGAdE.

cANroN SOUTH DAKOTA FRIDAY MAY 2e 1896.

the republicans Of Colorado held their
state convention, and with unbounded
enthusiasm adopted the following resolu-
tions:
We therefore declare that the free coin.
age of silver and gold at ratio of 16 to l
is for the time now being of paramount
and controlling Importance, and the most
pressing question connected with our
political duty and action. The doctrine
Of bimetallism has never been denied by
any national republican convention, but
often asserted and they who now deny 1t
are false to the party, and not we who
still MAINTAIN it. International bimetal-
lism can be achieved only through
national bimetallis.n adopted by the
United States. To the maintenance Of
this principle as we'll as to the restoration
OF silver as a money metal to the full
standard Of the constitution, we, as
republicans, pledge our most arduous and
persistent efforts. That the
delegates selected by this convention are
hereby instructed to act In harmony with
the views Of Hon. Henry NJ. Teller as to
the course TO be pursued by the Colorado
delegation to the national convention and
that Senator Teller is hereby selected as a
delegate and appointed to lead the delega-
ton at the St. Louis convention.
How is that for a state that has weak
ened" on the silver question?
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1896-05-29
8 Colorado and Silver.

AS has been frequently stated IN these
columns, the gold people have been busily
engaged for some months past in prov
ing" by repeated assertion. that the
''silver craze" IS dead. Among the other
conclusive evidences presented has been
the declaration that Colorado has come
to her senses. and has weakened ia her
demand for free coinage"
The attention Of those great authorities
is respectfully invited to the recent action
of the Colorado republican convention.
Senator Teller not long since declared
in the Senate that il the republican party
in national convention pronounced for
the gold standard he would not support
it. Senator Wolcolt had just previously
written q letter in which he stated in
effect, that he was II republican flrst and
silver maa next, and that he would
support the republican ticket regardless
of its action upon the silver question.
Instantly the goldnes began to exult,
assuming that it. at least, showed y
strong division OF sentiment among Cole
RADIO republicans. A little later Senator
Teller wrote the following letter to =
prominent republican friend:
HON. IRVING HOwBERT,
Colorado Spriags.
wish to say to the state convention,
through you, that do not desire to go TO
the national convention, and cannot 20
unless the state convention is in accord
ance with my ideas ia declaring that in
the coming campaign the silver question
is the paramount issue. The state con-
vention should act with the full know
ledge that | do not intend 10 support a
candidate on gold standard platform or
on platform of doubtful construction.
Ii this course puts me out of sympathy
with the republican sentiment of the
state, as portion of the republican press
allege it will, Will accept the result with
all its logical consequences in preference
to an abandonmeut of principles and
qualification of record made, as con-
ceive, under the instructions of every
repu blican state convention held in Colo
RADIO during the last twelve years.

Nothing But Laughter.

The last and by long odds the best and greatest effort of Mr. Augustus Thomas, author of Alabama, ""The Burglar" &c., is scheduled for an early presentation in this city 1t is a comedy tearing the significant title, A Nights Frolic. and will have the advantage of special scenery, novel effects and an exceptionally capable cast.
 A Nights Frolic is a comedy in all that the term implies, and to quote Chicago critic, "is as full of laughs as a shad is of bones" The laughs however, are not the empty, mean ingIess guffaws, juggled out by mere clownishness and the inaninities of horse play. but the spontaneous, in telligent expressions of merriment borne of the genuine wit, bright re- partee, absurd complications and ludicrous situations with which the play abounds. There is not dull moment during the performance. The production is novel, artistic md unique, and there isno attraction on the road today, 1t is said, thatexeels lit in elaboration of detail and com pleteness of production.

 ore4eo. Oct. 9.-The detectives and aoents of the Chicago and Northwest ern railway have arrested the members and stopped the operations of the most slillful. as well as successful, gang of freiebtcar pilferers with whom the rail road detectives of Chicago have had to deal for many years. It is known thus far that five railroads, the Northwest orn Burlington and Quincy, Great Western. Wisconsin Central and Rock Island. have suffered through the opef- ations of the gang, and it is believed not less than s10,000 worth of property bas been stolen within the last six months. ". T. Johnson, c. W. Parks, | W. Miller, charged with conspiracy and robbery, and G. Hamburger, charged with receiving stolen property, have been arrested in connection with the case.
 The thieves planned their work so that one member of the gang was shipped by freight in huge box marked household goods Augurholes in the box provided for air for the occupant, and food, water and candles were also supplied him before the start.
 When the train in which the car was taken out had proceeded 90 or D miles from the city the thief in the box, who was also supplied with tools, released himself. broke open boxes containing merchandise, repaeked it in the box he had vacated, nailed up the rifed cases, and saving hole i'll the floor of the car escaped in the darkness when the train was at standstill in some small country place His companions would telegraph ahead to the consignee of the box of stolen property to reship it to Chicago, where they would receive it and get possession of its contents.
