MIANToNoMoH IN TROUBLE.


Philadelphia, April 9.-The big double
turret monitor Miantonomoh is still lying
at the League Island yard and the fact
developed today that she may remain
there for some time to come. The delay
is due to several breaks in her machinery.
No sooner has one break been repaired
when another defect has been found.
The latest one discovered Is a break in a
cylinder of the engine that controls the
forward turret. The break renders the
turret useless. One master mechanic has
been summarily discharged because he
could not explain the canse Of the break.
Experts from Cramps shipyard, it is
said, are now making thorough exami-

The administration is vigorously
pushing the war in Cuba, Porto
Rico and the Philippine islands,
but it finds nothing for Bryan or
Fitzhugh Lee to do. They are
"waiting for orders" down at Tam
pa, Florida. To be plain, they
have been shelved by the admins
tration. If given an opportunity,
both of them would make brilliant
records and in that event might
|jeopardize McKinley's prospects
of a second term. Such a situa-
ton would cause S S Hanna to tap
a still bigger barrel than he did in
1896.

No More, Stock Passes.

At a meeting of the Executive
Committee Of the Western South
Dakota Stockgrowers Association
held in Rapid City on July 18th, 1.-The
following resolution was passed.
Whereas. Complaints have been
made by the railroad companies,
that the privilege Of free transpor-
tation for persons entrusted with
the care of livestock in-transit and
on the return trip. is being abused
and that merchants, bankers, doc
tors, and others not in any way in
terested in this shipment, either as
owners or employees, + being fur
nished transportation to and from
the market points on stockmen's
contracts. This is particularly true
through the agency Of professional
shippers employed by large con-
signors of stock to take charge Of
train load shipments where trans
%portation is allowed for three (3)
shippers. In many cases the pro-
fessional shippers take charge of
the shipment and sell the two ad-
ditional passes 10 persons desiring
to make the trip and willing to pay
something for the privilege; and
Whereas, This abuse having
grown to such proportions that u
continuation Ct the same must soon
work a hardship upon all consignors
Of live stock; therefore be it:
Resolved, That this Committee use
every effort, to have the practice
discontinued and respectfully re-
quest all members Of the Western
So. Oak. Stock Growers'.Association
and stockmen generally, to allow no
M except boni-fide shippers to &C
company their, consignments. Be
if further:
Resolved, That these resolutions be
published for four weeks in the Belle
Fourche Bee and NORTHWESTERN
STOCKMAN.

The question of equal suffrage
will be voted on in South Dakota
this year. The UNION believes
the proposition a good one to sup
port. If woman bears her burden
of taxation and obeys the laws of
the state, she is certainly entitled
to vote and have a voice in the
making of the laws which govern
her.

small figure at the coming republl-
can state convention at MITCHELL
klttridge and his cappers will be
on hand to shape the platform and
dictate the nominations as of yore,
and then all the cheap postmaster
editors in South Dakota will get
into the harness, tell the good peo-
pie of the state what a clean ticket
has been nominated (by Kittridge)
and then try to elect it. Friend
Glass and the Watertown Journal
will be among these. Not a one
of the Ter who are today making
an effort to overthrow Kittridgeism
will dare stand by his convictions
after the corporation whip cracks
at Mitchell-not one. In the
meanwhile there are newspapers
that will have the nerve to prate
about the republican party being
the friend of the poor man, but
DON'T LOSE SIGHT OF THE FACTS in
the case. They will not down!
The republican party Of South Da-
kota is owned body, soul and
breaches by the corporations and
it is bossed and manipulated by
their cappers and paid agents.
That is why this isn't a republican
year in this state.

RAILWAY

The UNION has many times
charged that the republican party
of South Dakota is dominated and
controlled by railway and other
corporation influences, and in the
campaign now on we would sound
the warning--that the people Of
this young state will make a costly
blunder if they turn the state gov
eminent over to a political party
owned by moneyed corporations, a
party whose corruption funds
come from corporation Golfers.
When corporation bosses dictate
the action of the party in power
then it is that the rights of the tax
paying citizen are tlampled under
foot and the sovereign will of the
people dehed and disregarded.
A party thus controlled must not
be handed the reins of government
in South Dakota. 1t is a menace
to the interests and privileges Of
the people.
1t is denied that the republican
party in this state is dominated by
railway influences. Let us see.
When in power what move was
yer made by the republican board
of railway commissioners to gain
relief from extortionate charges?
During the years the republican
party controlled the legislature Of
South Dakota, what measure was
ever enacted to relieve the people
and the struggling business inter
ests of this state from the robbery
on passenger fares and freight
rates? When a silver Legislature
passed such a measure and the
railway corporations shook the fist
Of defiance in the face Of the law,
who did they hire to defend them
and for a time defeat the will o!
the people Of South Dakota? A.
b. Kittredge, a man who for years
offciated as chairman Of the repub-
llcan state central committee, the
individual who today rules the re
publican party in this state, die
tates its nominations, shapes Its
platform declarations, distributes

master editors skulk into the re-
publican kennel, afraid to say "a
word without the so. k.' of this
man Kittridge.
But this is not all. Some Of
! the republicans Of the state realize
that Dakotans will not submit to
corporation rule and are trying to
save their party by throwing, off
tne yoke of Kittridge and his o
poration clique, and several coun-
ty conventions have adopted reso-
l%utions vigorously condemning
their bosses. If the republican
party of South Dakota is not dom
mated by the railroad corporations
and IT'S action shaped by their paid
cappers, why these resolutions?
Why did republican legislatures
vote down railway rate bills? And
why do such staunch republican
papers as the Watertown Jour
nal kick over the traces if their
party is not dominated by the rail
ways? A recent issue of that pub
LEGATION said:
The republican party of South
Dakota has been for several years
badly handicapped by the undis-
puted fact that the leaders and
managers of the party are all hired
agents and lobbyists Of some great
elevator, railroad or other monop-
oily, and that they have been work
ing for cash instead of principle.
That's pretty strong, coming as
1t does from a newspaper, the re-
~publicanism Of which has never
been questioned. But that paper
says more. We take the follow
ing extract from it:
The populist party is made up
almost entirely Of republicans who
have refused to wear the Kittridge
collar-intelligent men who will
not be forced to vote a ticket got
ten up in the interests Of the mo-
nopolies and directly against the
people at large. Look at National
Committeeman Kittridge, the head
of the republican ring in this state!
He is now and has been in the en-
ploy Of one or more Of the great
railway systems operating. in this
state, receiving a salary of $4,000
per annum, and as much more for
allowances" in seeing that no
laws are passed detrimental to the
railroad interests. Kittridge, af-
ter instructing strikers to tell the
people that he was working
against the elevator and railroad
companies, appeared as chief coun-
Sr - |
sci for the Milwaukee company in
the recent injunction rate case de-
cided by Judge Garland against
the railroads.
Not dominated by the corpora
tons, the republican party in
South Dakota? Let US see. Here
is some more republican testimony
as given by Hon. w. S. Glass,
who was given his sspie' in the
shape OF a consulate to Keihl,
Germany. Mr.. Glass has recent
ly returned 70 his home in this
state and in speaking of the cap
pers who run the republican party
in this state he says:
"The Kittridge-Johnson policy
in this state has been one Of imbe-
cility, injustice and dishonor. The

Unsatisfactory SITUATION.
Immediately to the Large Town
I of Malolos.

London, Aug. 29.-The Manila cor.
respondent of the Times says:
1.-The situation, although undoubt-
eddy unsatisfactory, remains I'M
changed pending a final settlement.
Aguinaldo proposes to remove his
headquarters Immediately to the large
town of Malolos, province of Bulacan,
situated on the railway line 90 miles
north of Manila. There he will shortly
assemble congress chosen from the
leading Filipinos, who favor the in
surgent cause. He further intends to
send a representative to Paris to argue
his claims for the establishment of an
insurgent republic.
Mololos is an excellent strategic
point, covering a rice and tobacco dis
trict besides the route to Biacnabato,
where the Spaniards were formerly
obliged to make a treaty by which
they purchased a cessation of HOSTILE
ties.
''The movement was probably neces-
sary partly because Agninaldo was fast
losing his influence in the province of
Cavite, where the insurgents evidently
expected to be permitted to occupy
Manila conformity with the Americans.
Considerable dissatisfaction is ap-
parent among the insurgent troops,
and after frank expression of opin-
ion is frequently heard that Aguinaldo
