Sioux Falls Journal (Pop).
1t looks somewhat as though
every silver republican Of this city
considered that he is entitled to some
office for the vote and work he did
in the past campaign; in which a
populist governor and Legislature
was elected. There are not n or
two candidates but at least twenty
consider their endeayors should be
recognized by Gov. Lee or the leg
isIature and then, too, they want
nothing bus the very best offices.
There is one thing sure, the silver
republicans of Sioux Falls are a
modest lot especially those interested
in the publication OF the Daily Press
because they expect to be able to
dictate the policy of the populist
party and nominations.

sends the following to his paper
from Pierre: ssOne Loucks man Is

state, living in u three dollar ROOM
smoking expensive cigars and ENJOY
ing the best there is who two weeks
ago went to u friend of Senator

Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1897-01-14
Well How is h I?

Elsewhere in this issue the Argus
Leader prints a despatch which
ought to cause the populists of the
state to prick up their ears and grid
up their loips. We have often
heard Of patriots who fancy an APP
attachment, but we
never saw a more comical illustration
Of it than is revealed by the codifi-
cation scandal which was revealed
by the populists within two hours
from the time Governor Lees mes
sage was read. That message adj
vocates the appointment of a com
mission to codify the laws of the
state. 1t has developed that this
scheme was concocted by patriots
Cherry and Palmer who want to lay
themselves on the altar Of the state
a nd who also want the state to pay
them well for it. Mr.. Cherry is to
head the commission, and is to con-
troll the expenditure of the $4,000
which will be appropriated as a
starter to print the work. Judge
Palmer and Mr.. Cherry are both
directors of the Sioux Falls Press
publishing company. The plan is
to give the job to the Sioux Falls
Press publishing company, so that it
can get it's share of the plumber
taken from the taxpayers. The whole
cost of the little scheme will be to
start with only about 100000. The
populists certainly ought to be sat
isfed, if the passage of such a bill
will please and accommodate un-
selfish and self abandoned patriots
like Judge Palmer and Mr. Cherry.
They spent much time in the recent
campaign and should have their re-
ward. To be sure some Of the pops
may think they ask a little too much
but such patriots are not found
every day and they come high.
The passage of a plumber bill like
this would not be quite in line with
the economy promised u it would
be a good thing for Mr.. Cherry and
the Sioux Falls Press, which declared
in its first editorial announcement
that it was going to give the people
of the state their first experience
with a genuine simon pure absolute
ly unselfsh and upright newspaper.

The Sheldon Libel.
A Pierre Paper Takes on the Sioux
Falls Press Attack on Ex-Governor Sheldon.

Pierre Capital /: 1t is not I'VE
stating the facts to say that every
man, woman, and child in this
city, except the author of the libel,
condemns and deplores the report
wired to the Sioux Falls Press by
It's reputed editor to the effect that
ex Governor Sheldon had been
caught in a gambling house and
escaped arrest only by courtesy of
the officers. La the first place, no
gambling house has been raided
since the commencement Of the
session, and IN the second place,
the governor eve CANDLES aud
has eve been inside of a gambling
honse or room in Pierre. There
are people in this city who do not
like him, but all who are acquaint-
ed with his conduct know he is a
man of pure habits and that his
private life is above reproach. The
telegram IN question Is false In
every particular, malicious, wicked
and a disgrace to the journalistic
profession. The people of Pierre,
with whom the governor has asso.
Iciated for the past four years, feel
a%ggrieved that the libel was issued
under a date line from this city.
Should the governor feel disposed
to notice the matter at all, he conli
make 1t decidedly Interesting for
the iibellers. The offenea against
decency Is more gross aud direct
than the offense for which Editor
Kidd of the Aberdeen Star wal
committed to Jail year or NOR,
ago.

The malignity Of the Sioux Falls
Press towards Ex-Gov. Sheldon
again asserts itself by the publica-
ton of what purports to be a des-
patch from Pierre stating that Gov.
Sheldon only escaped arrest, during
a raid upon a gambling den, by the
courtesy of officers. 1t retracts later,
OF course, but does so in the style
Of the average populist paper by
aggravating the original offense. 1t

printing Gov. Lees message before
it was delivered certainly did vio-

Poor Judge Palmer! Those
naughty newspaper correspondents
at Pierre have been exposing his
schemes, fitting over his carefully
laid plans and making a mark of
him generally, so he sets up a great
wall and claims the protection Of the

ton of censure against Tomlinson
and Cav a lier. But the Judge should
be merciful-what would become of
these poor men if censured by such

Its Different Now.

Senator Pettigrew is reported to
have induced owners of British gold
to invest forty millions of it in his
Midland Pacific railroad scheme.
British gold is very good when you
can swap railroad securities for it
and the senator don't seem to think
gold so bad in his own pocket as it
would be In Wall street. When the
yellow metal reaches Wall street,
the senator regards it as in very bad
company and likely to do great
damage. Invested in Midland Paci-
fc bonds, the stuff loses all its OBJ
jectional features, to Senator Petit
grew at least.

there would be some sense in the
combination.
