South Dakota as a Wealth Producer.

South Dakota as q Wealth Producer.
South Dakota has become one of the
leading wealth producers of the Union
and produces more wealth in proportion
to population than any other State.
This statement may surprise many
readers, but it is a cold fact, as shown
by the government figures and other re-
liable sources of information. The prin-
cipal reason for this is the immense di.
versity of her sources Of income or
wealth production. .-. .....
South Dakota is now third in the
production of gold of all the States;
She is also third in the production OF
wheat, first in the production of flax,
fifth in barley, oats and rye, about
eighth in wool, and tenth in live stock.
She is also high up among the top
States in the production Of dairy pro-
ducts, and is liberal producer of al
most all known minerals and coal and
even has natural gas in many localities.

OENOUNCE TYRANT TRUSTS.
Champions Of the People Raise Their
Voices In Ringing Argument
Against Corporate Rule.
Nearly Fifteen Hundred People At
tend Antitrust Dinner at St.
Louis.---Bryan and Clark
Principal Speakers.
FROM COL. BRYAN'S SPEECH.


An actor who visited Nebraska re.
Gently, upon learning from Republi-
can that confidence had been restored,
remarked that he had examined Web
ster's dictionery to learn what ''confi-
dence" meant and found confidence de.
fined as trust, and then he understood
that confdence- had been really re-
stored
More trusts have been formed during
the last two years than existed at the
beginning of the present administration
and the nominal capitalization of the
trusts now in existence approaches, if it
does not equal in amount, the worlds
total supply of gold and silver. The
influence of these trusts has become so
enormous that the people, without re-
spect to party, are asking themselves
how the evil can be remedied.
The purpose of the trusts is to control
the product of some article of merchan-
disc and the methods employed are:
First, the union of all individual factor
les under one management, or IN one
corporation, and, second, the crushing
out of new rivals.
A monopoly when once complete not
only dictates terms to those who buy
the product, but it also dictates terms
to those who sell the raw material and
to those who furnish the labor. If the
trusts are permitted to continue we
shall find an industrial aristocracy
growing in the United States which
will prove as destructive of>our ideas as
landed aristocracy would.
The principle of monopoly is incom-
patable with our institutions. Mans
necessities compel him to become pur'
chaser, and when there is but one seller
the purchaser is completely at the
mercy of the seller. Where there is
competition between producers, the
purchaser is sure to obtain what he
wants at a reasonable price. When
competition is eliminated the price is

greed of the one who possesses the mo-
nopoly.
It has been said that the power to tax
is the power to destroy. The monopoly
possesses the power to tax; it can levy
such assessments as it will upon the
purchaser, and we cannot more afford
to permit such a power to be exercised
by private individuals than we could
afford to authorize a private individual
to use the machinery Of taxation in
order to enrich himself at the expense
of his fellows. ...
Tho government would be guilty of
gross neglect if it permitted an individ-
ual to secure monopoly, even without
legislative assistance, but it is still more
culpable if, by legislative act, it fur
nishes the means by which monopoly
is secured. The corporation is the
means now employed by those who seek
to secure monopoly. Since the corpo.
ration is fictitious person, created by
law, the power that creates can regu.

the government is impotent to prevent
the organization of trusts is to say that
it has called into existence fictitious
person, and that the fictitious person
created has become greater than the
creator. E'...
One of the difficulties which has been
encountered in opposing trusts is that
the trust hides behind the federal con.
stitution when attacked by state legis.
lation, and shields itself behind its
state charter when attacked by the fed.
eral courts. No remedy will be com
plete that is not coextensive with the
federal government. If the extingush.
ment of the trusts is left to state legis-
lation the public at large will be victim
lied as long as a single state will fur
nish robbers roost where the spoils
collected in other states can be divided.
Just now the people are startled by the
principle of monopoly as it manifests
itself in the industrial trust, and well
may they be startled. The principle,
however, is the same as that which
manifests itself in the effort of the ma
tional bankers to secure monopoly OF
the issue of paper money.
|, The greenback is rival of the bank
note and it's presence is constant men
ace to the banks Of issue. Some who
recognize the evils that flow from a
soap trust seem Indifferent to the dan
gers that attend the formation of a
paper money trust
The principle of monopoly not only
lies at the foundation of the attempt to
destroy the greenbacks, but it is the
controlling principle that underlies the
crusade against silver as standard
money. Between 1850 and 1860, when
the production of gold was increasing
and the production Of silver was small,
three nations demonetized gold and
gave to silver a monopoly of mint priv
ileges. Early in the '70s the financiers
became warned at the increase in the
production of silver and conspired to
destroy silver as standard money and
give a monopoly to gold. the production
of which at that time was stationary.
The standard money trust is not only
the parent trust, but is in the hands OF
foreigners.
The Republican party is impotent to
destroy the trusts. 1t is controlled by
those who are interested in trusts. and
it's campaign fund and sinews of wal
are supplied by the trusts. The policies
for which it now stands disregards the
interests of the producers of wealth
and give to money consideration
which is denied to the Individual
Abraham Lincoln in the very beg in
ming Of his presidential career, warned
the country against the threatened at.
tempt to put capital above labor in the
structure of the government. Modern
Republicanism is fulfilling the prophecy
made by Lincoln, it is putting the dol
lar above the man.
The Democratic party is opposed to
the principle of monopoly wherever it
manifests itself 1t has declared wal
on the trusts Not little trust only,
but big trust as we'll. Not against
one kind of trust only, but against all
trusts.

lionel McCaskey, although but small guam
titles of canned beef were issued to my
command, it being practicable TO supply
fresh beef from refrigerator cars"
Among the many opinions were the fol-
lowing:
Captain ]. H. Shellabarger, Tenth in
fantry-The beef was Hauseating.
Colonel l. D. Rusey, Testh infantry
After continued use the canned beef be-
came so nauseating that the men could
not eat it.
Colonel Smith, Thirteenth infantry-It
was not a fit ration.
Major Vanhorne. Twenty-second infan-
try-The canned beef was nothing more
than the refuse of beef after soup had
been made from it.
A board of officers expressed the opinion
for the Twenty-fifth infantry. They
found the beef 80 unpalatable, insfpid
and worthless that it had not been used
The board then adjourned until Mon
day
Chicago, APRIL S.-Major General Will
lam R. Shafter, commander of the De-
partment of California, passed through
Chicago today on his way TO Washington
to appear before the war investigating
commission, to tell what he knows about
the quality of the beef furnished the
troops while he was in command at San
tiago.

turned over the books and papers to his
successor, Sidney Clute, with becoming
modesty. Sidney told the good people he
would make the very best clerk FL Reno
ever had. Dan W. Perry succeeded him
self as police judge. Dan remarked that
heretofore he had been very diligent IN
collecting and assessing tribute against
offenders of the law and he proposed to
be just as active in the discharge OF mis-
duties as he had been for the past two
years. City Treasurer Shutter said unless
his 100000 bank failed, which was not
likely. the good people OF FL Reno would
always know where their money was.
The incest and most commendable action
connected with the occasion was when
John Hudspeth, the retiring city marshal,
presented Billy Robar with the beautiful
gold star he has worn with such high
honor 70 himself and the city of FL Reno
for the past four years. John is not
much Of an orator, but his heart is in
the right place, and his action in present
ing his successor with such a valuable
badge of office has endeared him 10 the
people more than ever before.

INJUNCTION IN CANADIAN
Against the Removal OF a Certain
Wagon BRIDGE

En- Reno. O. T., April s.-(SpeciaL.) AT
the last session of the county commission
ers it was ordered that the county bridge
on the west line of the government reser-
walton be moved to point on the North
Canadian river at Darlington. The COM
missioners, after d thorough investiga-
ton, discovered that the bridge was not
properly located by a former board, and
that it only benefited a few at the expense
of hundreds of county taxpayers. Major
A. Z. Woodson, Indian agent at Darling
ton, agreed to move the bridge to OAR
lington, build approaches to it, and keep
the road leading to it in proper repair,
without cost to the county. When the
commissioners rendered the verdict, Major
Woodson proceeded without delay to send
teams and large force of men TO take
the bridge to Darlington, but was stopped
before it was all hauled away by an in
junction in the hands of the sheriff. The
injunction will probably delay matters for
a few days, but it can safely be said that
the bridge viii be in its new position and
travel will go over it inside of a month.

agreement to keep It so long in the CT
mate of Cuba aftertaking it out of the
refrigerator must involve some preserva-
tive process. He thought if thoroughly
frozen it would keep from twelve to eight
cen hours and not longer.
Captain George B. Davis. who was Cen
tral Eagan's principal assistant in the
commissary generals office during the
war was recalled TO give testimony con-
corning a shipment Of canned roast beef
TO the troops at Dunn Loring Va. He
said many cans of the canned beef had
been opened in the office and he had never
found any that contained unwhOlesOme
meat. Before concluding, Captain Davis
asked permission to make brief state
ment in response 10 Mr.. De Caindry. He
said that his charge Of the files of the
comm issary generals office was only per-
functory, and that he had a search made
for the memoranda which Mr.. De Caindry
had reported as missing, and had found
one Of them. He had never removed any
papers from the files.
The reading of the reports of officers
was then proceeded with by Major Lee.
Lieutenant Colonel Bisbee, First infan-
try, forwarded the reports of his COM
pany officers, saying that he concurred
in their expressions of opinion.
Lieutenant Campbell King said that ALL
the beef that had come under his obser-
walton was bad; Lieutenant G.. Berry said
that it had no permanent III effects, but
that it promoted slight nausea; Lieutenant
T[ilbourne. that the beef was unpalata-
blei Lieutenant McCue, that the men
were enabled to subsist upon it, but that
was all
After a brief executive session the court
took a recess until 2 o'clock.
Colonel Davis announced at the begin
ming Of the afternoon session that the
court had decided to adhere to its former
decision to summon only such of the adj
ditonal witnesses suggested by General
Miles as could give testimony upon points
not already covered by the inquiry.
The reading of the reports of army Of
ficers upon the canned roast beef as an
army ration was then resumed and con-
Guided: The reports read today included
sixty or seventy statements from army
officers, among them the following, from
General Lloyd Wheaton, dated at Fort
Lesvenworth. January 13, last:
