Republicans Assemble.
Large, Enthusiastic and Har.
mOntOus was the County
Convention.
EVERYBODY FOR TRURAN

The Republican county con,
vention held last Saturday to
elect delegates to the state con-
vention to be held at Sioux Falls
June 4, was one of the most en-
thusiastic and harmonious ever
held in the county. The fact
that J. E. Truran had carried
every voting precinct in the
county solidly with the exception
of one or two, and that these
were simply uncertain quantities
turned the convention into a
love-feast or ratification jubilee
in which the only work to be
done was to ratify Mr.. Truran's
unanimous endorsement by the
republicans of the county and
send to the state convention a
delegation that would enthusiast
tically work to place his name on
the state ticket for commissioner
of school and public lands. This
was the keynote of the conven-
ton and not a single strain of
discord was heard. The large
attendance of delegates, the con-
vention being fully as great in
numbers as many OF the cOnven-
tions where a full set of county
officers have been elected, in
dictated the strong purpose Of

In this state of religious ecstacy

Twice every week they have a sol

KILLED. HIS MOTHER.
Fearful Rites Inaugurated by a
Sect of Religious Cranks.
Young Man from America Beats
Woman Who Gave Him Life TO
Death - Crazy Mystics ia Ger
many and Bosnia.

| The Berlin correspondent of the New
| York World writes that about a year
ago a young man named Kaschke has
| tened to his home in the village of
Datten, an hours journey from Berlin,
from the United States to inform his
family of the approaching end of the
, world. His father, well-to-do farm
er, had always been religious man,
with leanings toward the mystical in
religion. He was a member of the ra-
tional church until the return of his
son.
The young man while in America had
associated himself with a number of
semi-mystical bodies, the chief tenet
of which is that the end of the world
is at hand. Being persuaded of the APP
proach of the second advent, he be-
lieves il to be his duty TO assist his rela-
tiyes in preparing for the coming of
Christ.
The young man found his relatives
in perfect readiness to accept his pc
culiar views. Recently they assembled
at the Kaschke home. diyested them
selves of nearly all their chothing and
began to chant litanies and psalms.
The neighbors saw them dancing about
and careering like maniaes across the
farInyard.
They had resolved to take no food
until Christ came, and young Kaschke
said that those who felt the pangs of
hunger first were those whom God had
not elected. Besides the farmer, his
wife and son, there were two other
grown children, a maid servant and
four peasants.
Frau Kaschke sank from want of
food after four days, and her husband
and son began to exercise the evil
spirit they said possessed her. They
danced about her and struck her mad
ly with their fists until the wretched
woman fell dead on the floor, covered
with blood. The blood gave unmiXed
satisfaction to the eight maniacs in
the room with her. When they saw it

FTench Satirist Who Is Now Visiting the
United States)
The city, he says, is no longer able to
extend itself from east TO west, neith-
er to the north nor the south, so il is
obliged to mount 10 the clouds. The
step thence TO the celestial country,
at this rate of advance, will soon be
very short.
Fourteen years ago, when he passed
up and down Broadway, and met there
so many men hurrying along with
frowning brOws. he said TO himself:
Poor devils, they are returning from
visits 10 friends who live al No. 538
East One Hundred and Twenty-fifth
street or No. 392 West One Hundred
and Thirty-eighth street" But now
when he sees them he eXclaims: Poor
friends, they are asking themselves if
at four o'clock they are going TO be
millionaires or dead broke
The few words that he has devoted
to American women are too charming
not TO quote in full: "By the side Of
the preoccupied faces of the men," he
says, pass the women. gay. smiling,
smart, true Parisians by their elegance
and by their air. admirably gloved and
coifed, and wearing shoes of impecea-
bic taste; wearing jauntily the latest
fashions from our fine Paris: pretty,
weil-made, supple, with eyes Eleom-
ing with intelligence, the whole
crowned with enormous hats placed
proudly on the most beautiful heads
in the world"
He refers 10 the American million
aires who should be called bilIionaires
he declares. in order to form any con-
ception of their colossal fortunes
The tastes of these great maqnates

$4,000 a year; others pTactictng dem
ocraric simplicity. patroniznig the ON
nibus and contenting themselves with
a democratic beefsJeak at a popular
New York bouilion.
He concludes in saving that nothing
is lacking to the Americans except 8
little ivy on some old wall TO recall
that the world does not date from yes
terday. But this ivy. too. he says, one
is in the act Of fabricating. just as
cobwebs are manufactured for wine

conceived Severe was the aeronaut
who was killed at Paris recently by

says that just before this disaster he
had a dream 10 which he seemed 10 be
in an airship above a cemetery. From
the open graves arms were outstretch-
ed toward him. Among the dead he
recognized his mother. He was much
impressed by the dream and had a
presentiment that something would
happen to him. The disaster actual

upon his lips for Grover Cleveland.
He understood perfectly the coarse
texture of Mr.. Cleveland physical
and mental makeup. his obtuse selfish
ness, his ignorant obstinacy, his vulgar
self-assertion, his interchangeable du-
plicitv.
THAT Mr.. Cleveland should put
himself forward as conjecturable
party leader is proof of self-confi-
dence which would be sublime II 1t
were not sinister; because leadership
with him means Office, and nothing
but Office.
From the day be was one and TWEEN
w till now he has been an office seek
err. He never drew a disinterested
respiration in his life. We are not
permitted, therefore, to see in this
artfully timea and ostentatious reap
pearance upon the scene from which
he withdrew into the conspicuous
shade of great university anything
except the organization of presiden-
tial boom, as it is called.
"We rather think the party will
agree without any division that it has
had it's fill of Mr.. Cleveland. The
i.1ea of his nomination is little short of
ridiculous.

be a name To cOnjure with in the east,

south it is simply hateful"

STILL IN DEBT.

The governor has borrowed $I5o,OOo
at three per cent with which to pay
the school teachers OF the state. 1t
was the understanding, as the Savan-
nah Morning News says, when it was
decided to use the public property
fupd-the amount was $3.50, 000-for
the purpose of settling the outstanding
obligations OF the state there would be
no necessity for borrowing money this
year. Last year the amount borrowed
was $500. 1000. This year it is $4,000
less, owing to the $3.50, 900 public prop
erty fund being turned into the gen.
eral fund.
1t seems that Notwithstanding the
use of the large public property fund
the state is still in debt. OF course we
tax.ridden beasts of burden don't care
a fig about this paltry sum OF money,
and will submissively bear the yoke OF
increased state expenses year after
year.
In spite OF the large increase
10 tax values every year the state is
getting in hole financially, and there
seems to be no Moses to lead US to a
better condition.
