Republican Platform

The republicans OF South Dakota, in
convention represented, affirm their full
faith In and ALLEGIANCE to the declaration
OF principles adopted by the national
republican convention at st. Louis in it's
entirety, constituting a platform Of q
great and progressive party, proud Of it's
past record and achievements, courage
Gus in it's championship of the right and
unfaltering in the maintenance Of it's po-
litical tenets.
3. 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 livee, 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 republI-
can administration Of governmental az
fairs OF this state as honest and econom-
ical, and especially commend it's steady
purpose ana effort in exposing and
bringing to speedy punishment a former
%defaulting state treasurer, and recover
ing back for the state 30 large a porpor.
ton Of the stolen funds; and we demand q
passage OF an act by our legislature bro
viding adequate punishment for defalc
tiops o, public officers.
4 The republican party having al
ways been the friend Of labor and labor
ing mon, deplores the frequent strikes
and conflicts between employers and
employed, resulting at times in the de-
struction Of life and property and great
injury to those Immediately concerned
and the public generally, and favors th'
settlement OF all questions Of dispute
arising between labor and capital by le
gally constituted arbitration by which
all parties interested shall be bound.
5. We believe the transportation cor
poratione OF this state are the people
public servants; w oppose any and al
harsh or unjust legislation concerning
them, but we do demand such Legislation
as will clothe the board OF railway com
m%issioners OF this state with full powe
and authority to correct evils, RICH
} wrongs, and in general to prevent all ur
just Determinations, and to provide
reasonable maximum tariff OF passenge
and freight ratee.

action as will require all candidates
| upon the legislative ticket to commit
themselves upon the Question 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 by unjust and illegal means to stifie
competition, and thereby, while lettering
the producer, to extort extravagant
prices from the consumer. We pledge
the party and its nominees for congress
and the senate TO use oil efforts toward
their destruction.
I. Whereas, complaints are made by
the people concerning the ~manaSement
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.
8. 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: -
Resolved, That since the assembling OF
the last republican convention Of South
Dakota the Supreme Ruler of the uni,
verse has removed from the active scenes
Of earth our honored ex governor. Ar
thur c. Mellette; and that In his death
his family has been deprived OF a devot,
ed husband and father, our state which
he so faithfully served a public benefac
or, the republican party OF cur state
champion OF masterful ability, tidelit,
and courage, and the nation one of the
noblest works Of God-an honest man.
Resolved, That in boiling the st. Loui!
convention Senator Pettigrew has ceased
to be in touch with the republican par
ty OF this state, and that he has forfeit
ed it's political respect and esteem.

Made Merry by Robin Hood.
The town Of Nottingham is 1874 miles
north of London. A part of the town is
Oh low lying ground close to the river
Trent, where floods sometimes occur,
but the rest of the town is built on a
series of red sandstone hills. 1t is sit
uated on the southeastern fringe Of the
great Derbyshire coal field, and the
historic forest of Sherwood formerly
spread almost up to the city walls.
Now this forest has. in a great measure,
been cut down, and this has reduced the
rainfall, raised the temperature and
rendered the climate of the town drier
and more bracing than it used to be.
The mean annual rainfall is now 20
inches and the temperature A degrees.
AS sandstone is soft and easily cut it is
only natural that the early jewellers in
caves came and lived in holes dug in
the hills of Nottingham, particularly
as the forest close at hand was a good
hunting ground where game could be
captured for food.
Bronze and other tools employed by
these early and prehistoric inhabitants
are occasionally found, and the first
name known to have been given to the
place was Snotingaham. This in Celtic
means 'the home among the rocks.
Afterward it became n OF the towns
