The republicans of South Dakota, in

faith in and ALLEGIANCE to the declaration
OF principles adopted by the national
republican convention at st. Louis in its
entirety, constituting a platform Of a
great and progressive party, proud OF its
past record and achievements, courage
GUS in its championship Of the right and
unfaltering in the maintenance OF it's po-
litical tenets.
2. We recognize in William McKin-
ley, our candidate for president, and
Carrot A. Hobart, the nominee for vice
president, two typical Americans, tried
in the public service and found able and
true, pure in their lives, untarnished in
their honor and close to the people in
their experiences and sympathies, aud
We pledge to them our most hearty and
| willing effort and support, with the full
vote Of South Dakota in the electoral
college. With such a platform and in
| vinclble leader we enter the contest with
the inspiration Of a sure prophecy OF
victory at the polls in November next.
3. We commend the present republl-
can administration OF governmental at
fairs Of this state as honest and econom-
ical, and especially commend it's steady
purpose and effort in exposing and
bringing to speedy punishment a former
defaulting state treasurer, and recover
ing back for the state 30 large a porpor.

passage Of an act by our legislature bro

ing men, deplores lthe frequent strikes
and conflicts between employers and
employed, resulting at times in the de.
etruction Of life and property and great
injury to those Immediately concerned
and the public generally, and favors the
settlement Of all questions of dispute
arising between labor and capital by le

upon the legislative ticket to commit
themselves upon ~theIquestion OF legisla-
ton to carry out the meaning and pur-
pose Of this resolution.
6. We view with apprehension the
growth Of corporate power in this coun-
try, and especially are we opposed to
trusts and combines which during re-
cent years have steadily multiplied, seek
ing 10y unjust and illegal means to stitie
competition, and thereby, while lettering
the producer, to extort extravagant
prices from the consumer. We pledge
the party and it's nominees for congress
and the senate to use all efforts toward
their destruction.
I. Whereas, complaints are made by
the people concerning the m~anaSement
of the grain elevators within the state;
Therefore. we demand that the coming
legislature make a thorough investiga-
ton into the details of such manage
ment within this state, and by proper
legislation provide adequate remedies for
the evil that may be found to exist.
s. We invite every voter who is a low
er of good government and who desires
the return of prosperous and good times
to join with us in the election OF the re-
publican ticket in county, state and ma
ton.
In addition to the platform as above
quoted, the convention adopted also the
following re solutions:

the Road Variety.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 22.-The Times
prints the following: The prospects
for fusion between the Democrats and
the Populists in Missouri are very slim.
At the recent meeting of the Demo-
cratic central committee, Chairman
Cook was instructed TO see what the
Populists desire. 1t would seem from
his investigation that the particular wing
of the party which is now in con
troll of the state organization does not
want to fuse, to compromise or do any
thing which will help the cause Of free
silver. Instead of patterning after the
Populists Of Kansas, they seem to be-
ongtothe Texas wing of the party. No
reasonable proposition has as yet come
from the PCpulist state central COM
mittee, aud there seems to be no reason
to believe that it ever intended for a
moment to consent to anything within
reason.

Democratic and P0IullSt headquarters
serious alarm is felt owe the tltUatlOn

dictate that the Democrats and POpullstS
are trying to effect Il fusion which VIII
leave out the Silver Republicans. The
managers at both headquarters consider
that this attempted combination at the
expense Of the Silver Republicans is a
violation of the spirit of the free silver
campaign, which seeks to combine all
the silver forces, and they fear its effect
on the Silver Republicans of other
Western states. They believe the diff
ferent forces should combine on equita.

such as was made in Minnesota and
Washington. Moreover, they consider
that it would be

because their refusal to recognize the
Silver Republicans involves the defeat
of Senator Dubois. The latter is looked
upon by both the Democrat and Popu-
list managers as II of the great CEN
trail figures in the bolt of free silver Re-
publicans from the Republican party on
the issue. To his instrumentality, also,
is most largely attributed the defeat of
the tariff bill i'll the senate, except with
a free silver rider, and to turn him
down they believe would send a chill
through the leaders of the Silver Re.
publicans of the West. For this reason
it is probable that both Chairman Jones
and Chairman Butler will make every
attempt t o arrange some sort of an adj
justment i'll Idaho that will give due
recognition to the Silver Republicans.

Founded somewhere about the twelfth
century as o fortified camp by the
Grand Duke of Kief, Ioury Vladimi-
rovitch Dolgourky, and raised to the
dignity of cathedral city and regal
residence in the middle of the four.

has been largely the history OF Russia
itself. 1t was in these days known as
Kreml. Moscow is "a city of contrasts

Senator Hill pres .nted the report OF the
Committee on Resolutions. In Jew words
| he explained that the committee had
thought it expedient not to treat OF state
issues, ana had confined the declaration to q
few National questions paramount at this
time. Then. interrupted frequently by ap-
nlause and followed with closest interest, he
| read the platform.
In brief, the financial plank is as follows:
"We are in favor Of gold aud silver as the
ave believe that bimetallisn, to which the
Nation Is solennly pledged, can only be safely
secured and permanently maintained through
the concu. rent action OF the leading Nations
Of the world.
"Until international cooperation for bi-
! metallism can be secured We favor
the rigid maintenance of the existing gold
standard"
The platform also declares for tariff for
revenue only endorses the administration
of President Cleveland and instructs the del
egates to vote as unit In the National Con-
vention.
When Senator Hill finished reading he
moved the adoption Of the resolutions,
There was Just moments anxiety lest some
of the silver men might raise q discord-
ant voice to mar the unanimtty. James
Carroll, of Oswego, had threatened to do 1t.
The motion was put. There came In answer
a great shout Of "aye." "Those opposed"
was called, but no one said ''no."
When former Governor Flower arose to
offer resolution, urging the Democrats OF
the South to vote for platform on which
all Eastern Democrats could stand, the reso-
luton was unanimously adopted.
CONGRESSMAN Sulzer presented resolution
OF sympathy for the Cuban revolutionists,
which was adopted after an amendment
offered by Mr.. Green, Of Brooklyn, calling
for National interference, had been voted
down.
The Committee on Delegates, through its
Chairman, James j. Martin, reported the Sc
lection of deleCates-at-large and alternates
as follows: Delegates-at-large-David B.
Hill, OF Albany County; Roswell P. Flower,
of jefferson County; Edward Murphy, Jr.,
' OF Rensselaer, County; Frederick r. Coudert,
OF New York County.
ates-at-large-Robert Earl, OF Herk1-
mer County; Smith NJ. Weed, OF Clinton
County; Jacob A. Cantor, Of New York
County; William Purcell. OF Erie County.
As Senator Murphy will not be able to go
| to Chicago on account Of III health, Senator
Cantor. his alternate, will take his place.
| The convention, on motion OF Colonel John
! R. Fellows, expressed regret for Senator
Murphy's long illness and extended con-
! gratulations on his convalescence.
As there was no more business before the
convention it adjourned without having had
voting roll call and having heard but one
| speech.

CHRIST AND BROWNING.

Nothing more accurately gauges men,
tests their real quality, stamps the degree OF
fineness in their nature. than their ability
to appreciate the character of Jesus Christ.
It IL simple and unfailing criterion whose
application. whenever possible. saves all
further trouble. 1t is decisive. That Christ
is more highly and widely appreciated In
this aye than in any which have preceded
It. is one OF the chief signs that we are on
the up grade and not on the down. The
greatest poet of the century, Robert Brown
ing, could never have commended
himself. as he has, to its deepest
thought, or become the mighty power
in the current Of Its intellectual life, If he
had not been able to understand this test.
His biographer, Mrs. Sutherland Orr. says
in her "Life and Letters OF Robert Brown
ING" 20. 1922: HE has repeatedly written
or declared In the words Of Charles Lamb,
IF Christ entered the room, should fall on
nv knees and again. in those OF Napoleon,
i am an understander Of men. and He was
no man. He has even added: If he had
been, He would have been an imposter.
The many lovers Of the poet are glad to re-
member this and note tokens of it in mui-
titude of places.

LIFE AND DEATH.

Jesus, on His part, never used Life and
Death in a physical sense with emphasis,
unless when He spoke of laying down HIS
own life, and no one knows what was hid
den in that mystery. I have power to lay
it down, and have power to take 1t again. !"
He reserved the words for their highest use,
and ignored the popular reading. "Our
friend Lazarus" He said, with careful
choice of terms, ''sleepeth but 90, that l
may wake him out of sleep Lazarus, the
brother of Mary. and the friend OF Jesus,
could not be dead. It was a moral i'm
possibility. The Jews who saw Jesus at
Lszarus' tomb and played the informer to
the Pharisees we're dead. 1t was a moral
necessity. When the misunderstanding
was hopeless, Jesus had to condescend.
Lazarus, il I must speak in your tongue,
Is dead" Physical death Jesus. refused to
recognize: it was an incident in the history
Of life. Death was calamity OF the soul,
and living soul was invulnerable. Il am
the Resurrection and the Life: he that be-
lieveth in Me, though he were dead, yet
shall he live and whosoever liveth, and be-
ieveth in Me, shall never. die" 1t was q
brave struggle for reality, and liberated the
lrst disciples from the bondage OF the
physical but the atmosphere is too rare
for His modern disciples, who, for the most
part, speak exactly as if they were pagans in
the Street of the Tombs at Athens instead OF
Christians who had sat at Jesus feet.-Rev:

of the Master"
