Good Common Sense.

may have been done by our state dele
CATION in congress that has not met with
universal approval, when did South
Dakota ever have a better one? Name
the delegation that ever did more for
the state than our present one. Name
the state that has stronger one and
more loyal to its interests. Our views
have sometimes differed from those of
the delegation and the governor on
some questions and we have freely ex-
pressed our views and offered our crlti-
cisms; but because we could not get
them to see as we did was that any
reason why we should fly the track and
demand their retirement from public
life? As we look back over the past
eight years and contemplate the splen-
did development of the state in the
way of opening up the reservations to
settlement, in securing concessions from
the government looking to the irrigation
of the semi lands III the western
part of the state, in securing the nations
/ al soldiers home at Hot Springs, the
government buildings for the principal
| cities in the state with prospects OF
more, and the thousand other things for
the development of the state and the
| advancement of our interests which
they have secured for us, it seems to US
it would be the height of folly to retire
any one of them and select new and I'm
tried men to ill their places. All OF
them hold prominent positions on i'm
portant committees, are acquainted
with the work, stand close to the presi
dent and high in the councils of the
bodies of which they have the honor to
4 be members. Could new men do the
work that needs to be done in congress
4 for South Dakota? 1t would take at
least five years for the brightest minds
in the state to secure the standing and
have the influence in congress now en-
/ joyed by our delegation. Too much
success in the republican party has al
most rent it asunder. With the last
election giving an overwhelming major
/ ity for the G. o. Z. it was only natural
4 that there should be an abnormal de-
i mand for sspie" All could not be sup
Ipiied AS a esult many were offended
and sought revenge on the pie distribu-
tors by becoming insurgents, simply be-
cause their Unsuitable lust for office was
4 not satisfied. How unreasonable! How
absurd! How foolish! Shall we retard
the growth and progress of the state for
/ at least five years SO far as it depends
upon the standing of our congressman
i by electing new and inexperienced men
/ to fill their places? Politics is politics
1 but it isn't always business nor good
horse sense to retire worthy men
t private life simply because you
or your friends could not getto the pie
counter when there was only one place
and about ten who wanted it. If they
were guilty of corruption or graft thai
would be another proposition, but there
is not a breath of scandal against them
4 Letpetty jealousies and personal griev
aces be laid aside and all work for the
good of the state in the coming conven-
( ton, until like the grand old state q
Iowa, we will occupy no second plac,
among the great states Of this glorious
Eunion.

Bryan was introduced first and led off
with modest and pleasing brief ad-
dress, touching very lightly on political
issues, as became man aspiring to a
judicial position, and made a pleasing
impression on the minds of his hearers.
Judge Perky followed with more ex-
tended address, proposing to show how
his party would amend our tariff laws
and how Dubois would deal with the
Mormon question, which his party is
attempting to make tile paramount of
the campaign, although it was doubtful
if half dozen of his hearers we're per-
sonally acquainted with a single Nor
mon.
He touched upon the present state
administration for irregular transac-
tions of the State Land Board, but for
got to mention that it had succeeded in
having the Government take back at
least sc, 900 acres Of lands selected by
former democratic boards and had So
cured in their stead more acres of the
most valuable agricultural and timber
lands OF the state and had done more
to enhance the value of the states land
holdings than all previous administra-
tions.
But Judge Perky proved to be pleas
iLg and affabIe speaker, who could jolly
up his small aud mixed audience with
trite expressions and pleasant anec-
dotes. But we doubt if he left a lasting
impression on the minds Of single one
of them.

MINING PROSPECTUS.
A Sample of the Manner in which
People are Humbugged

The following fForeword," manifest-
" to be followed later by an equally
untrnthful mining prospectus, was re-
ceived by our postmaster this week, with
letter of inquiry regarding the truth
fulness Of its statements. No one here
is able to conf cture where such pro-
perty can be located or ever heard of
the o. s. Smelling and Milling Co. It
is palpable such a fraud and attempt to
swindle that it is our duty to expose it.
1t is such things as this that make
legitimate mining undertakings looked
upon with such suspicion:
"rhe U. S. Smelling and Milling
Company has fully developed mine,
there having been spent III its develop
ment over $1,000 with $1,000OO0 worth
of ore on the dump ready to mill, and
with upwards Of $4O0OO,OOO worth
blocked out. Because this enterprise
is developed beyond the speculative
point, it therefore resolves itself to a
simple business proposition.
1.-The Company can begin to pay en-
ormons dividends within ninety days
from the time we start the mill in oper-
alton.
The property is situated in Carson
Mining District, Owyhee Co., Idaho,
eight miles southwest of Silver City,
the county seat. Good wagon roads
traverse the country in all directions
and are kept open the entire year, SO
that our mine is always accessible.
Nail and passenger coaches pass near
the mine daily.
'The Company has appropriated a
small block OF stock to be sold for the
purpose Of raising sufficient capital to
make repairs and improvements on the
mill, which originally cost about 100000.
"Those wishing TO avail themselves
Of this opportunity must do SO at once,
because the stock will soon be with
drawn from the market, as there is but
!, l;r,;txl ....e,,,t Ga. e,lo
"lt is expected that the stock will be
worth several times its par value in a
very short time.
"The money making possibilities of
this enterprise are unsurpassed by any
other proposition offered the investing
public.
"Do not fail to read the twenty-five
reasons why you should buy U. s.
Smelling and Milling Co.'s stock"

Distributing Election Supplies.

John S. st Clair at the present time
has tie county clerks office almost fill
ed with election supplies, and he and
his assistant, Dickens, are busy assort-
ing and tieing up the packages to be
sent to the judges of the several pre-
cincts. In this big county, with its
widely scattered population, southeast
to Three Greek, more than 100 miles
distant, south to Riddle, 100 miles, and
northwest to Homedale, 60 miles, taking
in other precincts on the way and TAX
ing receipts for deliveries, with special
trip to Big Springs, 40 miles for one de-
livery, involves considerable expense,
in one instance amounting to several
dollars for each vote which viii be cast.
Mr.. St Clair will personally make the
deliveries on one of the routes.

matter was done at the fine shop of

not as pleasant a berth as one might
desire. Hon. Frank I. Smith accepted
the position nearly two years ago, when
the district was created, aud was con-
sidered fair and impartial officer from
the time of his appointment. But a
most deplorable circumstance occurred
before he had occupied the posi lou for
year. One of the foremost men in
the state Was foully assassinated while
entering his own dooryard, the murder
creating the most III ense excitement
throughout the state and indignation all
over the country That it was as much
the work of an anarchist as was the
assassination Of the late president Nc
Kinley, none could doubt, aud the only
motive for the erpetration of the foul
deed was by everybody attributed to
the fact that, while governor OF the
state, the victim had been active III
suppfessing reign Of anarchy, terror
and murder, which broke out In Il mln-
lug district i'll this state. A man was
apprehended for committing Tile awful
deed, and is said TO have made d con-
fess on duplicating prominent officers
uf the Western Federation OF Miners
as participants or accessories before the
fact, and they we're duly indicted by
grand Jury, arrested aud neld ior trial
IN Judge Smiths district. These are
the plain facts of the case As to the
guilt or innocence of the accused the
writer has no opinion To express. But
we believe and know that a great ma
iority OF the members OF The w. F. OF
NJ think them innocent, and being fair
minded and honest men, wish to see
them fairly tried, and if proven guilty,
punished.
But because Of Judge Smiths con
nection with tue case, a howl OF abuse
mas gone up from all the anarchists i'll
tie land, and the direst threats have
been made OF bidding defiance TO the
law, and proclamation has been issued
| oy their reputed leader calling for all
army of their kind 10 march into the
state to lIberaLe them. Judge Smith is
continually receiving threatening let
ters from this class of people attempt
ing to intimidate him from doing his
plain duty, which is to see that the ac-
cused men have fair and impartial
trial We are too firm believerin the
integrity of our courts and in the sense
OF justice of the people of our splendid
state to doubt that every safeguard will
be accorded the accused to insure their
acquittal if not fairly proven guilty
We believe this Is all that is desired by
a very large majority Of the organiza-
ton to which the accused belong.
Judge Smith will probably be called
upon to preside at their trial. We call
upon all fair minded aud law and order
loving people in this district to sustain
him.
