THE YEAR AT HOME

Easily the foremost event within our
own boundaries, the one bearing upon
the present and affecting the future,
whose effects are not limited to our
own shores but touch other nations.
was the titanic struggle Of the none
tary standards. For the first time in
our national life the voters were ar
rayed in two hostile camps under the
gold and silver standards, to contest
at the polls the supremacy of the one or
the other. The silver standard waved
over those who honestly regarded that
metal suitable material for money.
ignorant of or ignoring the economic
forces that had relegated it to a subor-
dinate position, as well as the larger
number suffering under the distress Of
the financial wreck Of the panic, and, in
their desperation, clutching at anything
that promised either relief or a change.
Opposed were those who recognized
more or less clearly the reign Of law
in money as we'll as in the material
world, and refused to aid in the retro
grade movement to restore outgrown
conditions Europe, with it's vast in
Vestments here watched the struggle
with the anxiety that springs from self
interest, and the certainty of the reac-
ton that would affect it's own NONE
tary conditions.

ence and commerce concern themselves.
The notable achievement Of science this
year is DR.. Roentgen's discovery that
there are rays of light invisible to the
eye, capable of penetrating Opaque sub
stances and, with the aid of the camera,
photographing objects concealed in
them. Scientists were quick to per-
ceive the scope of this discovery and it's
earliest applications were to surgery
Salvioni and Edison pursued the sub
ject further until they discovered the
media by which the human eye could
perceive the Examinations of the mys-
FERROUS rays and arrived at the point
where the ability "to look through
man became a reality instead Of a fig
ure of speech. Prof. Jacques, in anoth-
er field, found that long-sought object

ties but yet meager in certainties, is
BaZin's wheeled boat, which, if the
working of the model is sustained by
that of the larger craft soon to be
launched, will revolutionize our steam
boats as Ericsson's monitor revolution
lied naval architecture. Among the
notable events of the year is the re-
turn of Nansen from his search for the
North pole, and his nearer approach to
that mysterious point than any of his
predecessors. Not least in his sue
cess was the demonstration that a YES
sci can be constructed that can with
stand the crushing embraces of the ice
foes. In medicine the hopes raised by
the investigation in 1895 have not been
fully realized, although the efficacy Of
anti-toXine in diphtheria has been fully
established. DR.. Cyrus Edson's asep-
tolin for the cure of consumption has
not won the confidence of physicians,

thanks to the officers for their faithful
work, and adjourned until next year.

4 NOTABLE YEAR.

We have been making history at q
rapid rate, and 1896 turns over to the
future historian of oar day large as
sortment of raw material. Events rise
and pass so rapidly, and the average
memory is so incapable of retaining the
impressions that daily crowd upon it,
that it is we'll to pause for day in
this transit Of the years to take ac-
count of the principal events of the
year and make note of those whose i'm
pact will be felt in the destiny of this
and other nations. The field of review
covers the globe for so interrelated
have become the interests of the peo-
pies of the earth that no event seri-
ously affecting those of the remOtest
regions. but sends its ripples through
every region where man has risen out
of a condition of barbarism. If a
drouth blights the wheat on the upper
plains of India it's effects are immedi-
ately felt on the farthest prairies of
the DakOtas, and the price OF leather
here rises to reflect the ravages of the
rinderpest in South Africa. The day
has passed when nations any more
than man in any of them can live
for themselves and to them
selves. Industry and her landmarks,
commerce., manufactures and agricul-
ture, have broken down the old barriers
erected when enmity was the habitual
attitude Of nations, and so changed
their relations that we now see the
navies and armies of nations strength
ened and maintained, not to inaugu-
rate and prosecute war, but to preserve
peace. We have the war lord" of

before which the baffled demons of
war, thwarted, repuIsed, vent their i'm
potent rage. We have him address,
ing his guest, the car of Russia: ''He,
the war lord of mighty host, will yet
only employ his troops in the protec-
ton Of peace" And yet, with it all, we
have, with that pertinacity with which
abuses and error once established
cling to life, resisting and impeding
progress, the persistent effort of some
nations, ours among them, to retain in
commerce the antiquated status when
men and nations lived only for them
selves, while, with strange contradic-
ton Of purpose, they make strenuous
effort to extend their commercial reIa-
tions with other peoples. But the re-
viewer must leave for other occasions

Association.

Congratula,tory kilograms were re-
ceived yesterday from Topeka, Kan,
and Milwaukee, to say nothing of the
one from the educational convention
which was in session at VermilHon,
s. D., and which caused not a little
amusement among the teachers when
it was read. 1t was as follows:
Three hundred and fifty teachers of
South Dakota, assembled at Vermillion,
send fraternal greetings and wish you
Godspeed in the great cause that alone
can reform society and lead to better
things socially and politically. Will
you not join us in a resolution for
