ron TnH MINISTER'S.

To ALL MINISTER'S OF The STATE:
Dear Brethern:-Then national Chris
tian Citizenship League from Its Of
flee In Chicago, has published re-.
quest that all ministers preach upon
Christian Citizenship on the Sabbath
proceeding July Fourth.
The same request made last year
resulted In the delivery Of many hum
dreds Of patriotic sermons, and q wide
spread revival OF civic righteousness.
The state Christian Citizenship
league Of South Dakota begs to call
the attentions Of all ministers ii the
state to this request. And urge agen-
eral response.
The conflict now being waged for
the overthrow OF our prOhibitOry law
calls for earnest and brave words from
every pulpit, and no better occasion
for their utterance could be found than
the anniversary OF the birth Of q free
and law abiding nation.

One of the severest ''scorchings"
man ever got was given by Senator
Pettigrew In the United States senate
to Grover Cleveland when the latter
vetoed the river and harbor bill. The
gist Of his speech Is that printed be-
low:
''Mr. President, the present occupant
of the white house Is not content with
the violation Of the constitution by the
exercise Of the veto power alone, but
with an utter disregard OF his sacred
oath Of office, 40 we'll as the cOnstftu-
tion, he oyerrides the laws, influences
congressman with patronage, enriches
his fav0rites at the public expense-in
fact permits no restraint but his Inn
perial will. think he might fairly be
charged With high crimes and misde-
meanors. He has exercised the veto
power In direct violation OF The consti-
tuition. He has appointed men to of1ice
without the advice and consent OF the
senate. He has defied the senate and
constitution alike by appointing men to
official positions after the senate had
twice refused its consent, and still re-
tains them in ofilce.
During his first term he openly used
his appointing power to intimidate
members Of congress for the purpose Of
securing their votes upon measures
pending in the two houses.
On his own motion he has undertaken
to overthrow the Hawaiian govern
ment, doing acts In direct violation to
the constitution. He has borrowed
money in direct violation Of law for

THE WAY THEY DO IT.

How the coMbine In the Pstent Basiness
Play "Pussy'' WITH coantry Editors.
Since the Sioux Falls Newspaper
Union came into OK istence there has
been . revolution in the patent inard"
prices. The Sioux City Newspaper
union. which used to demand-and
whatever it demanded the publisher
was compelled to pay-from sixteen to
twenty cents for ready prints, six
quartO. now does them for any price 1t
can get-that is, II 1t is intimated that
the country newspaper making the
kick Is going to change and have his
ready prints published at Sioux Falls.
A Forum man made q few rounds this
week and was surprised at the different
prices the Sioux City house makes. At
Fairview the telescope prints six
quarto, six pages patent and two home.
The Sioux City house in order to keep
that paper from going TO Sioux Falls
prints his edition Of ten quires for 81
per week..
The InwOOd Herald has the same
kind of patent and the same number
of quires. The Sioux City house
charges them 81 81. The Hudson Tri-
bune gets the same kind of q patent
and the same number Of quires as the
others, and they pay ~. 10. Now there
are three papers printing the same
kind OF patent and the same number
Of quires, yet one pays less than half
the other. The Hudson Tribune has
commenced proceedings to recover 326
Overcharge, and il looks a. II the
Sioux City house would have to stand
the loss.
Before the Sioux Falls house went
into existence there were few papers in
the northwest that were getting pat
ents for less than from Ia to l6 cents,
six quarto. Now they get them all the
way from 4 to u cents per quire. We
have seen it worked time and time
again. A publisher writes to Sioux
City countermanding his order, saying
that he Is going to Sioux Falls. The
Sioux City Newspaper union immedi-
ately writes the party that they can
have the patents for or cents or
nothing. They even pay the express
on the package when they cannot get .
man to stick.
The country publishers are having .
snap-not only In price, but when they
demand of the Sioux City house that
they want the patent without ads, the
same as the Sioux Falls house furnish
ca, they get them. The fact Is the
Sioux Falls house is proving big snap
for the country publisher-so long as
the present management Is retained at

THE PopULrsT CONVENTION.

The Weber county convention of the
Peoples party was called to order yes
terday afternoon in the district court
room by G. w. Clark of the Third
Ogden precinct, Chairman linn being
absent All the Ogden wards and
about half the county precincts were
represented. S. S. Smith was named
as temporary chairman and lIrs. H. C.
Smith secretary.
Committees on credentials, perma-
nent organization and order of bust
ness and resolutions were appointed,
and pending their report James Nc
Farland addressed the forty or fifty
delegates and the seven spectators
present. Hezbegan with the beginning
of the history of the Aryan race and
was down to the period of Cromwell
when the committees returned and
his speech was somewhat abbreviated.
The permanent officers were: S. S.
Smith, chairman, and Mrs. Kate Hill
lard, secretary.
The resolutions committee reported a
set of resolutions reaffirming allegiance
to the Omaha platform in it's entirety,
demanding the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to l,
without regard to other nations. The
issue of currency by the national banks
and the issuance of bonds were con-
demned. The actions of the Populist
members in congress on all occasions
were endorsed. A reduction of the
salaries of county officers was de-
manded and the practice of paying
salaries to deputies for work which
should be done by officers, was disap-
proved of.
The latter clause evoked consider
able discussion. W. G. Sumner of the
Fourth ward opposed it in vigorous
speech. in which he declared that the
salaries of county officials were al
ready low enough and that the fee sys-
tenn was the evil to strike out.
The resolutions finally passed as re-
ported
Considerable delay was occasioned
by arguments over the best method of
selecting delegates, various plans be-
ing presented and discussed. Mr.. Bar
rett of Wilson said the plan of having
precinct delegations nominate two
members would force him to nominate
himself twice. Are there not more
people in Wilson," asked Mr.. Gaut.
Eyes" said Mr.. Barrett, but they
would not go to Salt Lake. 1 could
not get any of them to come here with
me-"
Finally thirty-seven members were
named and from this number twenty
six we're chosen to go to the state con-

comes down to a substantial offer they

avoid a match. l must say that [ adj

coming out openly and admitting that

down to actual business he is never
