Pierre Daily Capital, 10: The first for
NAL gun in the appropriation cam
paign has been fired. A lengthy COM
munication dated from Pierre has ap-
peared simultaneously in all the papers
announces that an organization called
the South Dakota Business Mems and
Bankers's Association to work for the re-
peal Of the prohibitioy clause. 1t states
that the prime movers are in Pierre,
Sioux Falls, Yankton and Huron. We
cant speak of the other towns but no
n in Pierre seems to know anything
about the South Dakota Business Men s
and Bankers Association. The Journal
has interviewed gentlemen in these
branches of business who would be apt
to know and they all profess entire
ignorance. The probability is that the
above dispatch emanated from the liter
airy bureau of the brewers trust which
bureau is probably located in the
neighborhood of Sioux Falls. We might
venture to name the genius who pre-
sides over it.

When the Indiana Sentinel openly
acknowledges that the free silver
coinage at the ratio of 16 to 1 is de-
signed TO cheat creditors and scale
all debts down to 30 cents on the dol
lar, it may be in order to commend
its honesty. but it is wOfully wanting
in common sense. Honesty only in
the expression of its sentiments. Dis
honesty in the sense of repudiating 30
per cent of its obligations.
