vCotton manufacturing iii Mexi-

sets the wages of 10000 opera

because Of poor business. In
Mexico these conditions are made

which serves as barrier against

IT WILL BE FUSION.

IT WILL BE FUSION.
THE UNION agrees with the
Sioux Falls Press when that paper
states that some South Dakota re-
publicans imagine that they will
be aided in the next campaign by
a gold democratic side show A
gold democrat is republican who
proposes to fight the democratic
party under cover. He is usually
a man who has held office under
Cleveland and therefore became
Clevelandized. The principles he
advocates are republican in every
respect except the tariff. He is
lust as much in favor of the trusts
as are the republicans, but he
wants the trusts located outside of
Pennsylvania. He believes in the
domination of Wall street, the re.
tirement of the g1eenbacks and
the substitution of interest bearing
bonds, government by injunction
and the protection of property re-
CARELESS of human life.
These are facts we'll known. In
every state where gold democrats
have attempted to secure the en-
dorsement of voters they have
made a dismal failure. Voters
have understood their motives and
have known the leaders to be un-
der pay of the republican execu-
tive committee. With them it has
been matter of Doodle. With
some of their followers it has been
matter of voting the republican
ticket under the name Of "national
democrat. Their sympathies are
entirely with republican principles,
but they preferred to retain the
name under which Cleveland was
operating.
In South. Dakota the democratic
party stands on the Chicago plat
form. They are men of principle
and will vote their principles.
They know that, divided, the infu-
ence of the silver strength in South
Dakota would be lost, and that
every vote not cast in harmony
with the populists and silver re-
publicans will be just that much
strength added to the enemy.
Neither faction is strong enough
without the others. Even the
combined strength Of any two Of
| the silver factions would be futile
lin the face Of the republicans.
With firm fusion Of ALL of the
silver forces the republicans can
Ibe and will be defeated. This
