A private individual buys 81 600 of
government bonds and receives $50 per
year interest upon them. A banker buys
81, 900 of government bonds and collects
the interest upon them. He deposits
them to secure national bank circula-
tion and is given 5000 in bank notes. He
therefore receives $50 per year interest
upon an investment of only 500. That
is the difference which the law makes
between the individual and the banker
three per cent for the one and thirty
per cent for the other.-Sioux Falls

Some time ago Attorney Ackerson of
Niagara Falls wrote letter to Secre-
tary of War Alger calling his attention
to the shameful way in which two regi-
ments of Gen. Sheafe's brigade were
abused on needless forced march on a
boiling hot June day merely to win q
champagne bet made by the officer in
charge of them. The troops were
marched fifteen miles in four hours and
a half, through sitting heat and dust,
with but two stops of SIX minutes each.
More than half the men were Frustrated
before they reached the camp, and at
least one man died on the way. The
attorney who has taken the matter up
rightly charges that the officer who
committed this outrage to win two
dozen bottles of champagne is not fit to
be cattle driver and is guilty Of moth
ing less than murder"
Thus, we repeat, has the wisdom and
carefulness of Governor Lee been again
fully justified by time. And again his
CA0AAACS 0AO RuV w OOAAuSAOA ~ pay
to have an honest, business governor,
but it does not pay to have senator
like Kyle; nor is it worth while to pay
attention to the criticism of corrupt
newspapers like the Argus-Leader and
Aberdeen News. They have been the
leaders in the unscrupulous and menda-
cious attacks on Governor Lee They
represent the machine in South Dakota
because there is money in it. They are
the defenders Of Kyle and the railroad
ring and have never left any lie untold
that they thought would damage Gov
ernor Lee or Senator Pettigrew.
In the Sheafe case. as in all other
cases, time has told the truth. For the
sake of South Dakota, however, we
would have preferred that it had never
been told. Governor Lee would have
been elected without the Sheafe expos
ure, and the ranting of Kyle and Hea]y
and the Argus-Leader and Aberdeen
News would have been 80 much rant. =.

WHY DOES A1aER covER1ruPp

WHY DOES AL0ER COVER IT UPP
Some time ago Attorney Ackerson of
Niagara Falls wrote letter to Secretary
of War Alger calling his attention to the
shameful way in which two regiments
of General Sheafes brigade were abused
on q needless forced march on q boiling
hot June day merely to win champagne
bet made by the officer in charge of them.
The troops were marched fifteen miles
in four hours and half, through sitting
heat and dust, with but two stops of six
minutes each. More than half the men
were prostrated before they reached the
camp, and at least one man died on the
way. The attorney who has taken the
matter up rightly charges that the officer
who committed this outrage to win two
dozen bottles of champagne is not fit to
be cattle driver and is guilty of moth
ing less than murder.
Thus far Secretary Alger has deigned
to make no reply to the letter, though,
it is said, he has asked General Sheafe
to investigate the matter. General
Sheafe was not in charge of the brigade
the day Of the forced march June 25-
but it is evident that the officer who was
in command was there by the Generals
courtesy. General Sheafe is not the
man to make the required investigation.
If the champagne revelers who made
the infamous bet and were guilty of this
outrage are ever to be punished as they
deserve. it will never be done by the
whitewashing scheme which the War
Secretary has instituted. Chicago Trib-
une.
The Tribune might have gone little
farther into the subject by stating that
this man killing march could not have
been made with the sanction of General
Sheafe, and it is fair to presume that
Sheafe was in the champagne deal.
Mark, or General Sheafe, was always
noted for his love of 4 disgraceful orgie.

reform; which brought the evolution of
English constitutional liberty; which
planted the English colonies in America;
which established this great republic;
which inspired the German reformation;
which achieved the abolition Of slavery;
and which having we'll nigh accomplish
ed the political emancipation Of the un-
der classes throughout the world, is des-
tined under the banner of the united
silver forces, to achieve their social
emancipation in this country.
SILVER REPUBLICANS.
Shoulder to shoulder with the Popu-
lists and Democrats stand the Silver Re-
publicans--the very flower of the old
party-who under the leadership Of
Senator Teller and our own matchless
Pettigrew, have remained steadfast and
true to their party's teachings and ira
ditions Of the past.
UNION OF SILVER FORCES DEMANDED
BY PRINCIPLE AND POLICY.
But, though animated by one common
impulse, and having for their common
object the social enfranchisement of the
industrial classes, these parties are today
wasting their strength in the mainten-
ance of three Independent political or
ganizations. Recognizing that their
united strength is indispensable to sue
cess in national and state elections, they
nevertheless content themselves with
temporary arrangements of cooperation
or fusion, made from year to year by q
division of the Offices as to give not only
to the public but to many Of their own
followers the impression of bartering
away their principles for the spoils of
office. Why will you persist in such q
course of folly and danger? Why allow
yourselves to be divided by groundless
prejudices, when, as Ihave tried to show
you, every consideration of principle. as
well as policy, demands final and in
separable union, with one platform, and
under one name! Democrats, Populists
and Silver Republicans, we all stand On
common ground, in that we are all ami
mated by the same impulse. and inspired
by the same purpose, viz: the social
emancipation of the whole human race.

Hot Springs Correspondence.

HoT SPRINGS, s. D., Aug. IA, '98.
EDITOR LEADER: Canton has been
fairly we'll represented at this famous
resort during the week. L. H. Larson
and wife and son Of Canton, accompan-
led by DR.. Prestegar Of Sioux City, ar
rived Monday on the excursion train
which brought q large number from va
rious points. Tom Miller, Fremont,
Neb., banker, and son of Maj6r Miller
of Canton, accompanied by hs wife and
little daughter, were among the excur-
sionlsts and visitors at the Home. Col.
Emerson and son of Sioux Falls, were
also members of the party Then there
were many from Sioux City, Omaha, s
Denver, Chicago and New York. Forty
eight Of the excursionists visited the
Soldiers Home on Friday and e1ont as
many on Saturday. The Home is q
great attraction to all visitors, who are
shown over the building from top to
bottom.
L. H. Larsen and wife and boy and
DR.. Prestegar have been enjoying the
charm Of the plunge bath and have taken
in the Wind Cave and still desire more
of the glorious scenery.
Mrs. F. w. Pettigrew Of Sioux Falls,
accompanied by her two charming
daughters, are enjoying plunge baths
and mountain climbing, and have scaled
Battle Mountain and gazed eastward,
almost seeing Sioux Falls from this
mountain peak. Mrs. Pettigrew is q
charlningly pleasant lady, and enjoys
the big plunge and mountain climbing
as much as her daughters.
Hot Springs has been enjoying good
share of pleasure and health seekers this
season and thousands more would be
here if they only knew where to 60 to
get the most healthful zone in the world
and the purest waters, hot or cold or
mixed. The big plunge, bath alone is
worth the time and expenee of coming.
While Omaha and sioa1 City were
sweating in the torrid embrace of dead
ly heat and dust, q big pine wood fire
was glowing IN the ten foot fire place of
the Evans when the excursionists ar
rived, and the blaze Of the pitch pine
was welcomed by all.
Another big excursion party is booked
for the Springs on August 28, and it is
expected that large number of South
Dakotans will be in the party.
Col. J. H. Gable, the indomitable, per-
severing and jolly travelling agent of
the Northwestern railroad. is in charge
of these excursions and it is needless to
say that every man, woman and child
appreciates his care and fatherly kind
ness.
Every man who comes to Hot Springs
with rheumatism in his system, goes
home cured and happy man. This
fact alone is making this resort one of
the most famous in the nation. This
item is published for the benefit of those
suffering from the tortures of rheuma-
tisn. ..- s..-.

sGEcH OF ". 0. TEMPLE.
Extracts From His Speech Before
the Democratic State
Convention.

The evils which have suggested and
their remedies are the problems which
- tst henceforth ideand differentiate
y political parties Of this country.
Turning it's back upon its glorious
achievements and traditions of the past,
when under the leadership Of Lincoln,
it was the mighty champion of the en-
shaved and the oppressed, the Republi-
can party has deliberately espoused the
cause Of the corporations and power
holding classes under the leadership Of
Mark Hanna, whose genius for organic
alton and unscrupulous use Of money in
political affairs, make him the most dan
gerous man that has arisen in the his.
tory of American politics. The only
things which it offers the people in it's
platform are the gold standard, project
i've tariff, and the remnants of the old
program of political equality. It has
nothing in common with, and no SYM
pathy for the toiling masses those
plain people whom Abraham Lincoln
loved. On the contrary, it stands for
distrust of the people. It is to our gen
Grafton what federalism was to our faith
ers; and it's American deity is Alexan-
der Hamilton, who sought to make the
United States q kingdom with the
Washingtons for the royal family.
THE NEW DEMOCRACY.
Upon the other side Of the great social
questions are arrayed the silver forces.
comprising the Democrats, Popnlists
and Silver Republicans. At the Chica-
20 convention in 1896, the Democratic
party, breaking away from the malign
leadership of Grover Cleveland, made
Its final choice, and boldly avowed itself
In it's platform as the champion of the
toiling millions. While the Democratic
party in the past has stood for much
that is great and good, it is also believed
by many people to have stood for much
that is bad in American politics. Wheth-
or the assertion is just or not, I shall
not stop to discuss for the fact remains
that the old Democratic party has been
widely associated in the public mind
with slavery and secession. But the old
Democratic party is dead, and with it
should perish forever those unpleasant
associations. At the Chicago conven.
ton, the party had new birth, and a
new baptism. It became new party,
charged with new mission, and conse-
Grated to new and loftier than the old
party had ever dreamed of in its purest
aspirations
THE POPULIST PARTY.
To the bigoted and prejudiced the
Populist party stands only for radical
fanaticisms and long haired calamity
howlers. But whoever looks beneath
the surface, into the causes of things,
must perceive that the great underlying
force of Popullsm springs from the
truest inspiration of the human race.
The Populist party is the result of that
constant aspiration for higher things,
for truer lives, for better opportunities,
which in widely different form has kept
beating against existing conditions, and
bv virtue of whose persistent force the
human race has been lifted up from saw
aeery to civilization. 1t is the same
force which has inspired every battle
for freedom, and every effort ut popular

Springs!

The Sullivan Hot Springs are
pleasantly situated only two
miles and a half above the town
of Clayton, near the South bank
of Salmon river. Their waters
are of nice temperament for
bathing, and possess strong
medicinal qualities, sulphur pre-
dominating. This is fast becom-
ing a place of resort for invalids
and pleasure seekers. Mr.. Sui
Ivan has made a great many inn
provements for the comfort of
his guests, but the leading at
traction must ever be its healing
waters.
A carriage for the conveyance
OF guests will be constantly in
attendance, and all persons wish
ing to go and return can do SO
during the day, round trip only
90 cents. Two fine plunge baths
are now complete and other
conveniences will be added.
