Kimball, S. D., Oct. 9, 1900.
E. j. Tracy, Sioux Falls, Secretary
of Mid-road Populist Party Com.
Dear Sir: / received your COM
munication of the 9Th inst, notify
ing me of the action Of your party
Tor committee1 at Yankton on the
4th inst, in placing me in nomina-
ton for lieutenant governor on your
state ticket. And / take this early
opportunity of respectfully declin-
ing, and hereby notify you that un-
der no circumstances will l accept
the honor; not that l am not a popu-
list and anxious to promote popu-
lisism, but that I am more than one
in name, which I would dishonor,
were I to accept. For you are fully
aware that at the regular national
populist convention assembled at
Sioux Falls on the 10th of May last.
w. J. Bryan Of Nebraska was unan-
imously nominated as our nation
al standard bearer and that parti-
cipated in every degree from caucus
to said convention in promoting his
candidacy, and that all OF my popu-
listic force is being spent in the
promotion not only of the national,
but state and county tickets, even
sinking personal honors to the end
that the principles of populism,
Matched by the Farmers Alliance OF
South Dakota, may prevail against
plutocracy, greed and trusts.
Therefore having followed the his
tory OF populism in u state from
the farmers alliance to the present,
and noting the methods of the "fath.
err" of populism, H. L. Lcucks, ]
am convinced that the present is but
a scheme Of his, together with ether
soreheads, tofurther the election Q
VIM. Mckinley as against that O
w. j. Bryan, which is beneath thu
honor and dignity Of any true popu.
list.
/ am, sir, your most obedient,
&c. J. Maynard.

did nothing of the kind. He intend
ed to doSno campaigning at all in
the Hills and did not consent to do
any until persistently urged to do
SO by one or two friends of his boy
hood days, who are fusionists and as
good Woodmen as the order contains.
First Mr.. Green was charged with
making rank populist speeches
while on a lecture tour for the
Wooamen. This lie was nailed.
Then he was charged with violating
the rules Of the order. This lie was
as promptly nailed. Now comes the
plaintive wall that he was .sgiving
it out" that he would be back and
make political speeches. It is like
the last whine of a whipped puppy.
So far as The UNION is concerned
the controversy is at an end. 1t
has nailed these lies as fast as they
appeared and it knows full well
where they orginated-and it was
not in the Office of the p. t. organ,
either. Mr.. Green is a gentleman
and his reply to his traducers in
this city was as q gentleman TO q
gang Of hoodlums. The spirit which
has prompted criticism in his case

speaker and he warned up TO- the oc-
casion in good shape, outlining the
many things that we, as a race, have
to be proud. Of He said Il in part:
While he would acknowledge that we
have not been given all the considera-
ton that we might have been given
and while we have not had all that
we might have had, aall that we have
we have got through our own energy,
and the Republican party. (Applause.)
He said the Republican party are
standing for the same principles to-
day that they did in 1896.
We had one issue then and we have
one now. Mr.. Morris is full-fledged
Republican and one that is always
ready to speak in their behalf.
The opening address was made by
Mr.. George Matchen, who in father
like way gave the boys the inside
trade on the workings of the cam
paign committee and just what and
how he wanted to see things done. His
talk was short and to the point, as
surfing the boys that as chairman of
the Republican State Committee he
would be found Johnny on the Spot
whenever called upon for anything in
his power to give.

was good enough for him.

pose of forming a marching club and
Mr.. James Butler was made captain
organizer for the club. All wishing

same known to Mr.. James Bittles, St.
