warning from the White House is
being distributed broadcast by
the gold bugs. This precious
screed, paints in the most lurid
colors the results of free and un-
limited coinage Of silver. Is not
this characteristic Of what we have
said in q former paragraph?

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT is
WHAT WE WANT.

What we want in the municipal
management of Rapid City is good
praetlcla business management.
With this object in view, we want
q business man thoroughly con-
yersant with business principles
at the helm. All these qualif-
cations William LaBee possesses.
You cannot do better, voters Of
Rapid City, than return him as
major. You want q live, energetic
man, who will by his management
IF city affairs, lift up this city from
the slough Of depression, s.agna-
tionsand Dependency into which
the commonwealth has fallen.
But it is needless to say more,

A STRONG MANI

Will LaBee first saw the light Of
day on November 3, 1856. in
Delavan Ill, where his father held
q position as merchant. Leaving
his native state in the year 1881,
he, came to Denver, Col. where for
one year he worked for Halleck &
Howard, Wholesale and retail lum-
ber dealers. In 1882, he came to
the eastern part of this state. where
he held the position Of bookkeeper
and head salesman for the Hatten
Lumber Co. Migrating from
there, he came to the Black Hills
in 1886. In this city he has re-
sided ever since, having held the
position Of salesman for Hulst &
Price for eight years. Subse-
quently engaging in business for
himself, he has whilst here, been
considered so deserving Of the con-
fdence of the community that he
has been twice elected to import
ant public positions. From 1892,
to 1894, he held the office Of city
treasurer, SO that he may be
considered eminsntly suited for
the high Office to which no is, at
present, aspiring as being thor
oughly conversant with the fnan-
cial affairs of this municipality.
At present he holds the position
of president of the board of edu-
cation, to which he was elected in
1891 on the democratic ticket.
He is q strong man! That's what
even the parties who oppose us
say.

CONSISTENT AND TRUE.

What a glorious thing it is to
have consistency That is the qu.l-
ity beyond all others which man
admires in his fellow-man. A
man Of his word! What a volume
there is in the expression. You
always know where to find him,
whot to expect from him. No
or changing, which. ever
way the wind blows, but always
the same. True to his friends,
liberal to all mec, such are the
points Of Will LaBee's
a creed which can be
up in the world-embrac-
ing policy Of Give and let live"
The Black Hills union. [volume] (Rapid City, Pennington County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1889-1904, 1896-04-17
A STERLING ARTICLE!

William H. LaBse is the peoples
choice for mayor. A good wine
needs no bush! A good thing
needs no putting, Push it along.
Yes, LaBee is a sterling article.
He has been tried in the balance
of the peoples estimation and has
never been found wanting. In all
his dealings, he has been found
true, honest, and honorable, and
every man in Rapid City knows
that Will LaBee is u man OF. his
word, and that once he has given
his pledge, whatever the conse-
quences, he will adhere to it.

PRACTICAL COMPARED WITH
EDUCATIONAL POLITICs.

PRACTICAL COMPARED WITH
EDUCATIONAL POLITICs.
There are two classes Of princi-
pies in every political creed,
which some people are to confuse.
Between them, however, q broad
line Of demarcation can be drawn.
One class embraces those rights
which can be acquired in the
present generation and which,
therefore, come within the domain
Of Practical Politics; the other those
which the people can have no
POSSIBLE means Of acquiring, under
the present conditions, for at least
many years to como and which,
therefore, may be grouped under
the genus of Principles Of Educa-
ton. Retain the latter we must IN
our platform, in order to educate
the world up to our principles,
with the conviction that some time
or other, even though we may not
live to . it, these very principles
nov regarded only as the theories
and fads Of cranks, will become
the laws of the Universal Globe.

WHY

The most serious difficulty we seem
to encounter in endeavoring to arrive
at correct solution of this money
question is the fact that, like some
other questions, it has two sides. Will
some of our monometallic friends
explain why, if England SO years ago
could fix the price of gold throughout
the world by act of parliament, the
United States cannot fix the price of
silver today by act of congress? 1t
will be remembered that in 1S4i Eng
land enacted law which obliged the
Bank of England to purchase all the
gold offered for sale, and fixed the price
to be paid at So lis Sd, little less
than $50 per ounce. That act of the
British legislature established the price
of gold throughout the world and has
maintained it for half a century. Now,
If the United Should enact a law oblig-
ing the treasury to purchase all the sill
yer offered at $129 per ounce, would
that not establish the price of silver
throughout the world? The question
naturally occurs, what would the
United States treasury purchase the
silver WITH Well what did the Bank
of England purchase the gold with?
With the legal money of England; the
money current in that country-gold,
silver and bank notes. The United
States treasury would purchase the sill
yer with an exactly similar product;
that is, the legal money of the country;
the money with which all obligations are
liquidatable and in which prices are
expressed and by which exchange is &C
complished. We are told that in case
the United States should attempt such
a thing, the gold would all leave this
country, to which we ask, why? Eng
land fixed the price of gold throughout
the world when one ounce of it was
worth less than sixteen ounces of silver
why can not the United States fix the
price of silver throughout the world
when sixteen ounces of it is worth less
than one ounce of gold. Why?

A LITTLE DIVERSION.

TIE TRIBUNE publishes the sub
stance of the correspondence between
Governor Mcconnell and Capt. Wells
In order that the public may judge Of
the merits of both sides. In our judg-
ment the governor is to certain ex-
tent blameable. In the first place, the
matter should not have been given
publicity until Captain Wells had had
an opportunity to make explanations;
secondly, Governor Mcconnell ought
10 have acknowledged in his first com
munication the authorization given
Wells to pay one of the dividends to
Senator Shoup. On the other hand, it
would seem that Captain Wells ought
to have turned over to the state au-
thorities the receivers certificate, in
his possession, upon the expiration of
his term of office. Why he held that
certificate does not appear. Again, he
appears to have received three divi-
dends since the one he was authorized
to pay Senator Shoup, and in his COM
munication to the Paye:te Independ-
ent does not explain what disposition
was made of either or any of them. 1t
is true he may have considered himself
authorized to pay them also to Senator
Shoup, but it seems that he has not
done 80 as a deficiency warrant has
been issued to Senator Shoup. Posi-
bly, Captain Wells may be holding the
last dividends received subject to Sena-
tor ShOup's order. If that be true, he
certainly ought to have notified the
state board of the receipt of the money
aud the disposition he felt authorized
to make of it. 1t was clearly the COVER
nOr's duty to ascertain the status of the
business and demand of Captain Wells
an accounting but it should be done
through the ordinary official chan
nels and not through the public press.
Summed up, as we take it, this whole
business amounts to little indiscre-
tiOn on the part of Governor McCOn-
nell and a slight irregularity on the
part of Captain Wells. The captains
talk about "suing beggar and catch
ing louise" "horde of sycophants" and
substituting newspapers" is all clap
trap. We wonder if newspapers will
ever get tired of stultifying themselves
by opening their columns to these
sanctiied politicians who deem them
selves morally obligated to slur the
press every time they mention it.
There may be subsidized newspapers
but they rarely receive in lump sum
$4,000 for work which they promised to
perform for nothing. In the history of
Worlds Fair Commissioners windfalls |
of that kind are not wholly unknown.
But this incident has contributed |
something to the general stock f pub,
lie diversion and affords temporary |
subject for faCtional politicians to
harp on. Otherwise it is without inter
est and will presently sink into innoc-
nous desuetude, as our friend the duck
shooter would remark.

SOME TEAT BITING.

Recently the Pocatello Tribune con
tanned about column of virulont crit
icism of Judge Huston in which the
following language occurred:
THAT persistent old office seeker, Jos.
w. Huston, associate justice of the Su-
preme Court of Idaho, who came here
with the pioneers and who has been
either occupying or fighting for place
az the public crib ever since, is good
bit OF an old fraud in more ways than
one. Recently he had an aW-
full spaSm of virtue and wrote a letter
TO Welser man who gave it out for
publication, in which he said:
"I am sick and tired of being the
mere tool of a lot of heartless, soulless,
Goddess political fiends. Both the
Democratic and Republican parties
have abandoned and repudiated every
principle of their organizations, and
still expect to make their deluded ard
gospelled members follow the phantom
of name. / decline to follow
"Come off the perch, ice Huston.
I on are too we'll known in in Idaho to
fool the people that way. They know
that You are no better than other men
and it really don't look we'll for you to
bite the teat that you are sucking, in
that cruel and altogether shameless
And still the Pocatello Tribune is a
staunch supporter of Senator Dubois,
who leads the movement in this state
to bolt the Republican party on sub
stantially the same grounds taken by
Judge Huston. 1t seems to make a
difference who happens to be biting
the teat.

NO SILVER. NO PROTECTION.

1t cannot be denied that some of the
disciples of the silver senators are
gradually receding from the extreme
position taken few weeks ago. The
Salt Lake Tribune is modifying its
views, while the more pronounced
friends of Senator Dubois, in this state
are modulating the mo free silver no
protection" cry into another, more har.
monious and more consistent key. It
Is amusing to note the masterful re-
treat of these recently very aggressive
mo free silver, no protection" cham
piOns. They have managed to get
back into the Republican fold under a
dazzling display of arms and a blare of
trumpets quite diverting, and now
they proclaim the doctrine of free sill.
yer and protection with such tremen-
dous vigOr that one is almost startled
into the belief that it is something
new under the sun. 1t is astonishing
what an air of originality these returned
prodigals are able to impart to that old
household theme-silYer and protec,
tlon. Indeed, it does not seem possible
under the influence of this new out
break, that silver and protection has
been the constant and reliable shibbo-
leth Of westarn Republicans for fifteen
long years; that it has been talked over
IN thS family circle, discussed on every
street corner, blazoned on hundreds of
platforms and shouted from thousands
of rostrums. Yet such is the melan.
choly fact, NO western Republican
ever thought of changing the party war
cry until some silver senators sought
to test the temper of the people by in

needless to say, their curiosity was
soon satisfied and they are clambering
back onto solid ground with commend.

For three long, miserable years the

most anything in the nature of a
