The Georgia Democrats declared for free
silver, and the Atlanta Journal said, edi-
torially: 'The result of Saturdays pri-
mares has not changed our views on the
subject of free silver coinage at 16 to 1.
We are sure that at no distant day the
Georgia Democracy will regret that it ever
committed itself to this policy and will
renounce it by vote even more decisive
than that of day before yesterday. 1t may
be that the State convention will not 90 to
the extreme which some of the silverite
politicians favor. We hope it will not.
There will be many men of cool judgment
in that body and we trust that their coun-
sci may be needed" The convention did
go for free silver. Ed.

Miss Helen Bangs, one of Rapid City's
most popular young ladies, came in
Tuesday for a weeks visit with Miss
Kate Mcmahon, an intimate friend now
engaged as teacher in the Custer public
schools. A very pleasant party was
given in honor of Miss Bangs at the
residence Of Mr. and Mrs. Garlock on
Wednesday evening which was replete
with the most enjoyable features. Po-
pular games were introduced which
furnished pleasing amusement for the
participants, and the lunch served upon
the occasion was choice, dainty and ir
rsstible. The prize in the progressive
high five contest fell to a young lady,
who disclaimed all knowledge of the
game, and was, as she earnestly averred,
the result Of sheer luck and chance, and
she therefore positively declined to
accept it under the circumstances. 1t is
barely possible that the Young lady:s
refusal of the prize vas due to the fear
of notoriety. In any event she persist
emily refused it's acceptance.
