We are now 16-1. Not for free silver

upon u 18th volume, For fifteen years
the Reporter and Farmer has been the
weekly recorder OF the events OF Webster
and DayCounty,--the medium OF inform
alton between many homes and the out
side world,-and the files OF the paper
present a most interesting history OF this
section. In glancing over them, what
memories are brought UP, what remiais-
cences brought TO light, Many Of the
early patrons and subscribers have
drifted into other fields of labor, some
have gone over the Great Divide aud a
large number who commenced with the
Reporter fifteen years ago are still with
it. This paper, in common with other
business ventures, has gone through
periods OF prosperity and periods OF de-
preston, like the present, but is still in
the ring, full OF that hope which inspires
every true Dakotan, for there is more
hope to the quarter section in South
Dakota than to the county in other
localities.
The present management of the Re-
porter has ~endeavored to furnish its
readers with a journal replete with news,
political and local, and to fulfill in every
respect the duty OF a live newspaper.
Our increased subscription list shows
that our efforts have been appreciated,
the only lift in our lutte being the lack OF
proper advertising support. That ad-
vertising pays has been demonstrated
beyond question time after time, and il
is difficult to determine the cause OF the
lukewarmness OF our merchants to an
advertising proposition. The Reporter
circulates in every part OF the county
and has subscribers ia almost every
state in the Union, and while it may be
argued that the latter class furnishes no
patronage to the local merchant, we

Why is it that both the Populists and
the Democrats failed to put a plank in
their platforms demanding that the
government own and control the silver
mines of this country, so that the profit
which would be made from free coinage
would go to our government and thus
indirectly be a benefit to the whole
people? Why should this profit 20 to a
few individuals who own the silver
mines and who are already enormously
rich? Is not this building up one Of the
most dangerous trusts that the country
has eve seen?
Think of a few men having sss.f
their control all the silver of this co.-n

turn it into dollars as fast as they o

combine to shut down work ON their
