The Republicans of wheeling whoop-
ed 'er up in glorious style last night
The ratification meeting at the Grand
Opera House was an occasion TO be re-
membered. The house was filled to its
capacity with crowd of intelligent
voters. among whom were noticed many
OF the Democrats who have already
come out, without concealment, for the
nominees Of the st. Louis convention,
who are conceded to represent the Amer
lean idea OF protection and honest
money as wholely and completely a the
Democracy is going to represent free
trade and free coinage Of silver Gt q dis
astrous ratio.
The enthusiasm that marked themeet-
ing was feature. The mention OF thu
magic name OF Mckinley" by the sev-
eral speakers was Invariably greeted
with the heartlest Of enthusiasm by the
crowd. Sentiments for honest money
and tariff that viii protect the work
ingnen Of free America from disastruuS
competition with the underpald pauper
labor OF the continent across the sea,
received equally as much applause.
Mr.. Bentley Jones, president OF the
Ohio County Republican Club, made
some forcIble and appropriate REMARKS
in introducing Senator Whitaker as
chairman Of the meeting. HIS remarHs El.l
4ycre devoid OF illGhIB OF orRtory, but mis-
pointed utterances were well received.
Senator Whitaker was the recipient OF q
fIattering reception and presented the
issues briefly but completely, sounding
the keynote Of the campaign.
CONGRESSMAN Danford, OF the st
'CIairEvIlle district, over the river, has
had twenty years experience on the
stump, but he nevermadea betterSpe
than that OF last night which dealt
mainly with the historical portion OF the
money question. He showed up the in-
consistency OF the Democratic position
ON money matters IN an able manner.
CongreasmRn Dayton, OF the Second
West Virginia district, was the next
speaker. He went over the several -
sues Of the campaign and paid his re-
spects 70 the party Of bankruptcy and
unsound money In vigorous Language.
Mr., Hart's presentation OF the money
question was listened to with interest
. throughout and evidently created deep
impression. The A. B, g. OF the gituA-
tlon was drawn In clear cut Sentences
that cleared the horizon that had cloud
I'd and befogged many a mind. 1t was
received with hearty applause.
OF course Mr.. Atlkinson'B short speech
was received with favor. This te his
year, so to speak. Congressman Dow
ener was not lost In tho Bhutiie, either,
his brief talk being puncuated with al-
most continuous applause. Protea9ot
Jones had the audience with hlrn' rom
beginning to end.

Field Day Sports.

Approaching the close of the school
year field day of sports is being inaug-
Grated by the high school, and on Fri
day afternoon the contests between the
A grammar and high school were fin
ished up. The base ball game between
the two departments resulted in vic
tory for the A grammar boys, the game
being played on the university grounds
Thursday afternoon. The score was
close, 26 to 25, but the figures were too
large for we'll played game. The ten
mis- match was played Friday afternoon,
Louis Becl1with and Clifford Gheen
representing the high school and John
Bately and Charley Ford endeavored
to hold up the honors of the A gram
mar. but the high school boys proved
too much for their opponents and de-
feated them in two straight sets, the
score being SO and ga. In the 100
yard foot race the high school was
again victorious, Fred Kratz winning
against Roy Perry. AS an incentive in
the sports the W. J. Healey Hardware
Co. offered base ball and pair of
tennis balls to the winners in these
contests. 1t was very nice of the COM
pany to offer the prizes for it induced
the boys to exert greater efforts in their
play. Athletics in connection with
school work is very good thing, so
long as it remains secondary to the
other, and the relaxation from studies
and the routine school work could not
be better employed than cultivating
the physical forces of the body

The Informal Reception.

Bishop O'Gorman and party was
driven at once to the hor.el and the re-
ception was held in the spacious dining
room. The bishop and party stood at
the east end Of the room in the midst
of pleasant surroundings while the
throng of guests approached from the
west end. Mr.. Welch stood at the
right OF the bishop and performed the
ceremony of introduction. The bishop
shook the hand OF fully 500 people and
as the hands met in friendly clasp a
feeling of friendliness seemed to pass
from one to the other. During the re-
ception the mandolin club, stationed at
the west end of the room behind large
screen, rendered a program of music
which relieved much of the formality
of the occasion. The decorations Of
the room were beautiful and the design
was effectively carried out by Mrs. R.
D. WEIGH, Miss Josie Keating and Cor.
less Newbury. Each of the windows
were draped with lace curtains, trim

down the long room an attractive grotto
of green foliage surrounding mirror
had been arranged The effect of the
decorations was enhancing and lent
brilliancy to the scene that was pleas
ing At the close Of the reception Mr..
and Mrs. j. f. Conant entertained the
visiting priests and several of the re-
ception committee at q luncheon in one
of the parlors. The menu was excellent
and was an enjoyable feature of the
evening. Among the visiting priests
were Father Kelly, Elk Point; Father
Traynor, Emmett; Father Kennedy.
Vermillion; Father McNally, Elkton;
Fathers O'Hara and Nolan, Sioux Falls:
Father Flynn, Madison: Father Bouska,
Tabor; Father Nily, Tyndall; Father
Claude, Woonsocket: Father Ahern,

ter: Father Hoffman,, White Lake;
Father Reiland, Aberdeen.
The whole affair was carried through
to a successful end and the bishop was
highly gratihed at the reception he re-
ceived at the hands of Mitchell people
while our people were equally pleased
to do honor to such grand man as
Bishop O'Gorman. The bishop return
ed to Sioux Falls this morning and car
ried with him, as he expressed to THE
REPUBLICAN,, some lasting impressions
of Mitchell hospitality.

Next Meeting of the intercollegiate Oh
atorical Contest Held in Mitchell.

Next Meeting of the intercollegiate Or
atorical Contest Held in Mitchell.
Rumor had it Friday morning that E..
A. Whitaker, representing Dakota
University, won in the oratorical con-
test at Yankton last night, but the
south train brought different inform
alton. Mr.. Whitaker was third on
the list, but he made strong fight for
first place, his markings, however, on
thought and composition made it i'm
possible for him to win. Miss Hyde of
Vermiliion won first place and it is the
first time that the state university has
been so honored. Yankton took second
place. In the athlectic contests our
university boys we're defeated with the
exception of Motley, who won the mile
bicycle race Thursday afternoon.
The next contest will be held at
Mitchell next year, the date being set
three weeks earlier on account of the
Interstate contest, which will be held
before the school year is out.
H. H. Motley returned from Yank-
ton Saturday having attended the in
ter-collegiate athletic tournament. He
won the mile and two mile bicycle races
quite handily, and was presented with
two gold medals.
