The Crime of Ignorance.

Paper money is not sound because it
does not bear interest; paper bonds are
sound because they bear interest. An
abundance of money is not honest, be-
cause then the wealth producer receives
a larger per cent of his earnings, but a
scarcity of money is honest, because
then the man who lives from the inter-
est OF a fixed income can absorb more Of
the products Of labor. Soundness and
honesty, then, are relative terms and
apply only to the welfare of the man
who lives upon usury.
Mr.. Chairman, I sometimes think
that among men there is but one crime,
and that is ignorance. Ignorance of
physical and natural law entails suffer-
ing, disease and physical death; igno-
rance of moral law brings disobedience
and moral blight; ignorance of financial
and economic law permits social YAM
pires to fasten themselves upon the So
cial body, permits a system Of finance
which has for it's main pillar Of support
bonds, through which the social YAM
pires draw from the blood and toll and
sweat Of blind, ignorant labor their sus-
tenance and by which labor, robbed of
its own, is ruthlessly-aye, remorseless-
ly-thrust into slavery.-Congressman
Castle.

TO REFORM PUBLISHERS.

The attention of all reform pub
fishers is called to the excellent
patent now used on the inside
pages Of THE UNION. This ser
vice, which now includes a sum
mary of South Dakots news, is fur
nished by the Nebraska Reform
Press Business association, 10th
and Farnam sts., Omaha, and is
the best service obtainable at any
price for reform papers. 1t is
furnished by men whose hearts
are IN the reform movement, in
stead of being dished up by paid
agents in the old trust houses.
Look the service through. Place
your ready print order with friends
of the reform movement. 1t is
your duty to do so, and you will
obtain a better service than can
be had of the old trust establish
ments at any price. Our patent
is a fair sample of what is being
furnished. Write for prices.

Let the FOREIGNER Paw.

If the foreigner pays the tax, as we
are assured by the Mckinley school of
economists, an increase of a few thou
sand millions of debt will be of no seri-
u consequence to our people. By the
way, why is it that the attention Of
congress is wholly directed to the plan
of raising revenue by taxing our own
American products? Why not increase
the tariff on importations and let the
blarsted foreigners pay it? Then we can
fight Spain and all the world indefinite
ly and not levy a tax on bank checks
Or anything the people use in business,
eat OF wear. Certainly, by all means,
recast the Dingley bill, raise the per
cent Of tax OF foreign products up to an
unhcard Of maximum, and float tri-
umphantly on a mighty wave Of nation
al prosperity .-Bellaire (O.) Herald.

Told on Kentucky Legislators.

A member Of the late Legislature from

Tut: "This is no rabbit. It's nothing

last republican governor? He
was the acknowledged member of
the state house ring and if he did
not share in misdoings of the ring
he at least made no effort to cor
rect the abuses perpetrated there.
When State Treasurer Taylor
stole the state blind the republican
governor and his ring of pet state
officials arranged the famous Tay-
lor compromise whereby this kid
gloved thief ofupublic money was
guaranteed a short sentence if he
would kindly come home and give
himself up. Taylor came home
and the ring kept its word-he
served IA months for stealing $780,
900 of public funds.
There are the records and they
will not down! Do the people of
South Dakota want to return to
the erler of things which prevailed
at that time? Do South Dakota MS
want to turn the state government
owe to the party and ring of men
who have once wrecked its credit
and left its treasury, empty? THE
UNION believes not and it further
believes that when the returns
come in next November they will
show a healthy majority as an en-
dorsement of the capable admin
istration Of Andrew E. Lee.

GOVERNOR LEE.

Much to the disappointment of
republicans in this state; the con-
ventlons of the populist, demo-
cratic and silver republican
parties at Aberdeen welded the re-
form forces of South Dakota to-
gether SO effectually and har-
moniously as to insure the success
Of the ticket and the complete
rout Of republicanism next No
vember. These diciples of "na-
tlonal honor had done their ut
o to prevent fusion, and failing
IN this they sought to stir up the
mlddle-o t-the-road populists and
get them to s'bolt" the state con.
ventlon. In this they failed also
and the present political situation
furnishes little that will cheer up
the heart or brighten the counter
ance of the South Dakota followers
Of 5 S Hanna.
The denomination of Honest
Andy Lee is especially common
dable and will call out the combin-
ed vote of the reform forces to the
support Of the entire state ticket.
lie is stronger today then he was
when he made the race in 1906,
for he has to his credit two years
of as clean and capable an admin
stratlon as has ever come from the
hands OF any governor in the coun-
try. Look at his record for a
moment and compare it with that
OF the last republican governor
South Dakota had. Andy Lee
sought out to the public plunder-
ers, be they great or small, and
never ceased work until he had rid
the state of their services and sent
them home where they could not
fatten themselves at the peoples
expense. Politics cut no figure
with him. He believed that a
thief was a thief and the political
color Of the culprit did not alter
the matter. This he demonstrated
in the cases Of Kipp and Dowdell.
That, coupled with a competent
and economical administration all
along the line, is the record Q:

THE STATE PLATFORM
AS Adopted by the Peoples
Party of South Dakota in
State Convention.

The Peoples Party of South Dakota
triumphantly re-atfirms it's allegiance
to the fundamental principles %enunciat-
ed in the Omaha and St. Louis plat
forms.
We distinctly re-affirm our position
in favor of the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at the ratio of l6 to /, and
our unalterable opposition to the issue
of interest-bearing bonds in times of
peace Or war.
We are opposed to banks of issue and
in favor of the issue Of all money d.
rect by the government.
We demand the passage of the free
homes bill, and condemn the opposi-
ton to that measure by tie national
republican managers and their failure
to redeem their pledge made in the St.
ouis convention.
We approve of the war now being
waged in behalf of the oppressed peo-
pie OF Cuba and the Philippines, and
demand it's energetic prosecution and
that 1T be terminated as quickly as
possible after the purposes for which
it was inaugurated shall have been ac-
complished.
W. denounce the infamous policy of
government by any action fostered by
the federal courts, and we demand the
election of such courts by a direct vote
of the people for stated terms.
We regard the tenure system in our
federal judiciary as subsersive of liber-
ty and we demand the election of Unit
ed States supreme cour for stated
terms by direct vote of the people.
We recommend that at the State
convention OF the peoples party to be
held in 1900, a candidate for United
States senator be nominated to be vot-
ed on by the legislature elected by the
party.
STATE ISSUES.
No people can be free who are de-
| MED the right to vote yes and no on
every law to which they are subject,
! and we therefore favor the initiative
and referendum as the only
by which majority rule can be secured.
We are firmly committed to the pub
lie ownership of national monopolies
a ID we favor an amendment to the
constitution permitting the state to
engage in public works.
We favor the repeal Of the so-called
fellow servant statute and the enact
ment of legislation making employers
liable for injuries received by their
employees while insthe discharge of i'm
mediate duty, when injuries received
are directly traceable to the negli-
gence of employers or fellow servants.
We believe in fostering the institu-
tions of the state and insist that coun-
ty and state supplies b. purchased
from home producers.
We are opposed to the employment
OF convict labor in competition with
free labor except to such an extent as
may be necessary to preserve the
health of the convicts and maintain
the institutions IN which they are in
generated.
We demand an equitable tax upon
he franchises of railroad and other
corporations, and we denounce the ma.
jority of the state board of equaliza.
tion for It's refusal to assess railroad
property on the same basis as that Of
the citizens of the state.
