Democracy Against Republican.


I There are some Democrats who
always have the blues. They are
always imagining this and that will
bring defeat They want this for
an issue and that for an issue.
With them it is issue, issue, issue,
and-defeat, defeat, defeat.
The only issue necessary is. De-
mocracy against Republioanism.
And the way to win is to watch and
attack the strong points in the
enemy as we'll as the weak. Watch.
when they leave their bases and get
our feet in.
Now let the Democrats play fair,
stay on their bases, strike no fouls,
and when they run, run a home
stretch and the game will always
be in our favor. But, grow careless
and indifferent. get off your bases.
and defeat follows. &
In the national contest the Dem
ocrats are now out Some players
are dlsheartened ana are Crying Tor
now issues, new issues, 60. That
is poor way to play ball. Stand
to your corners, watch every move
of the game, and be ready to gain
point on the "Ins" at every oppor-
tunity. Don't stand around and
grumbIe at those who are doing
good work on your own side. Do
your part too, and all work togeth-
or for success in 1900 and we will
have it.
Lay aside your immuginary
grievances and all work together,
and Democracy will win in 1900
No man is greater than his party,
and no matter who the nominee
may be, he will be a Democrat, and
that is all the "issue" needed
Democracy against Republicanism.

The Fl uutinutru Hprul1 Suvs.

Tn" Huntington Herald says:
4 prominent gentleman Of this
city Is IN receipt of letter from II
largo manufactures which states
that the company with which he is
identified has an offer to dispose of
it's buildings and grounds and de-
sires location elsewhere. Tho
concern is largo one and it. would
be worth making n great effort to
locate it here Tho nature OF the
plant is such that this city would
have many natural inducements for
it to stop within our gates.
Some idea of the importance of
the plant may be drawn from the
following extract from the letter.
=" 1t will take so acres for factory
and residences; 10 acres on wagon
and railroad for factory purposes,
10 acres to be divided into lots of
about five to the acre. Sell the
first choice of 100 lots at SlOO each,
second choice of 100 lots at S75
each, third choice of 100 lots Mt $50
each, and fourth choice of 80 lots
at $25 each. One third cash the
day the company is incorporated,
one third cash three months from
Incorporation, one third six months
from incorporation.
Now what is the matter with
Point Peasants Board of Trade,
that it can't conceive some plan by
which it might induce this great
concern to locate in our town. We
certainly have superior advantages
over Huntington or any other town
in the Ohio Valley.

Itencct1ons ot. n Bnchelor.

When a woman sees a man turn
around to look at her twice she will
never admit that he isn't good
looking.
Every girl has an idea that when
a man first tells her he loves her he
will do it by not saying anything
but just looking at her that way.
The more woman makes her
husband eat lot of fussy things
with French names, the more he
longs for a piece of real old-fash-
ioned pie with strips of dough
crossways on top.
People are lot like dogs. The
expensive ones, with ribbons
around their necks, snap at the
children, and the low-down, good
for-nothing ours go around wag-
ging their tails at everybody.

Gard of Thanks.

We desire to extend our heart felt
thanks to the members Of Black Hills
Camp, No. 1870, Modern Woodmen of
America, Of which camp our departed
one was a devoted member, for their
untiring and loving care and attention
to our dearly beloved son., during his
sickness, death and burial. Words can
not express our gratitude, and those
kind acts will be cherished in our mem
ory as long as life shall last; may the
blessings Of God rest with the Modern
Woodmen of America and their grand
and noble work.
And to the friends and neighbors, who
so kindly assisted, we extend our thanks,
and when death shall darken your
homes, may kind and loving friends
minister to you as they have to us, and
cherish and console you in the dark
hour of sorrow and bereavement.

Custer weekly chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, S.D.) 1890-1931, 1899-03-11
Died.

On the 3rd of March, 1890, at the
residence of his parents in Custer City,
s. d., Henry A. Cubberly, aged Is years,
four months and Is days.
Henry was the only child of Mr.. w.
G. Cubberly and Clemantine Cubberly,
his wife, and came to Custer county in
1888. He remained with his parents
and moved with them to Custer City in
1897, since which time he has acted in
the capacity Of assistant postmaster.
He was at the time of his death a mem
Der in good standing of the society OF
Modern Woodmen, the members of
which, in accordance with the usages Of
that order, were unceasing in their at.
~tentions to their sick brother from the
beginning of his fatal attack, up to the
hour that the great reaper claimed his
own.
The funeral services were held In the
Methodist church on Sunday, Rev. But
terrified officiating. The funeral service
Of the order to which he belonged was
performed at the grave, where a large
%concourse of friends had gathered to pay
their last respects to their departed
friend and brother.
His malady' was pneumonia, his ill
ness was of short duration, and his early
demise Is lamented by this community
in which he was held in high esteem.
The sympathy of the community is ex-
tended to the bereaved parents, who
are bowed down to the earth in sorrow,
and must mourn as non other can,
while they miss the touch of a vanished
hand, and the sound of a voice that is
still.
1t is such scenes as these that
bid us pause and reflect. Life at best is
a fearful thing, often commencing with
a tragedy and always ending with one.
Everything points to the fact that we
are but transient guests while here on
earth, and this world is not u home.
We meet here as ships meet upon the
sea. We hail each other, then say
good by, and sail away on U destined
course, never to meet again until We all
cast anchor in that grand and sunlit
harhor, where we furl our sails, mingle
together in joy, and part no more for
ever.
