harsh or unjust legislation concerning the

Resolutions Of respect were adopted to
the memory OF eX-Gov. A. {. Mellette.
The following resolution affecting the
re cent action of 5 natOr Pettigrew is a,
follows:
Whereas, r. F. Pettigrew was elected
q delegate 10 the Republican National
Convention at st. Louis on a pledge given
in open convention to abide by the de-
ciSion of the highest tribunal of the Re-
publican party, and
d. Whereas, In his representative capacity,
as said delegate, Mr.. Pettigrew Withdrew
from the national convention and allied
himself with the enemies of the party,
thereby disappearing the sentiment
The Dakota chief. (Gann Valley, Buffalo County, S.D.) 18??-1913, 1896-07-16

and betrayiny the interests OF the party
in the state and nation; therefore be it
Resolved, That the Republicans OF
South Dakota, in convention assembled,
hereby denounce such mis- ep resentatlo
and betrayal, and pledge the party, ii in
control Of the Leg stature, to the election
of a true and loyal representative OF the
party to the Unite States Senate, from
the commonwealth Of South Dakota"
The report Of The committee on reSO!u-
lions was taken up by sections and passed
without opposition ultil the resolution
referring 70 Pettigrew was reached, when
a dispute arose as TO its phraSeOlogy, and
il was referred back to tie committee.
When tho financial section of tie st,
Louis convention was read, Judge Palmer
of Minnehaha County moved to substitute
for the words, 'in its eternity" these
words, excepting its declaration upon
finance, and upOn this question we hold
to the use Of both silver and golt, as the
standard money of !hc country, and The
coinage of both gold and silver without
discrimination against either metals, and
at such "A ratio as will maintain the parity
between The metals" lie md along and
powerful argument in defense OF his
proposition.
At N dn!ght the convention was still
discussing the financial plank, with no
respect OF adjournment.
The Dakota chief. (Gann Valley, Buffalo County, S.D.) 18??-1913, 1896-07-16

All resolutions and talk aimed at Sem
ator Pe!tlgrew illuminated in the adop-
i,on of the following:
Resolved, That by boiling the st. LOUIS
convention Senator Pettl.rrW has ceased
to be in touch with the Republican party
OF this state and has io!telted It's political
respect and esteem.
HumOrs of a bolt from MinneEaha
County were confirmed when j. Buck
from Sioux Falls arose and positively
stated that a majority Of the Minnehaha
members had left the hall and in all prob
ability the party as well.
Fifteen delegates from Minnehaha, the
speaker said, remained and could be
counted on for their loyalty and fidelity.
In the absence of the others the chair an
nounced that the delegates present were
empowered TO cast the full vote of their
county.
Mr.. Blacks speech ad led fuel to the
excitement, and for a time pandemOnium
held full sway. Senator Thurston'S re-
mark in the st. Louis convention that
Il ere still remained a sufficient number
o! delegates TO transact the business of
'he convention was repeated AMI stirred
nearly every body to a white heat of en-
'husiaSm.
