briefly OF myself. 1t matter:

already generously bestowed up
on me all there is in the honor OF
representing this great and de.
serving pOpulace in the Congress:
OF the United States. But yor
are coSerned as to the kind o.
representation you have and by
the impartial judgment OF voter:
as to whether or not | have made
good shall willingly stand OIL
fall in the election. The record
OF my public service is open to
every man in the district and
want to know what it is before
he casts his vote next November
And. whatever this estimate,
cannot promise more in the fu-
ture than the advantage of expe-
rience and | will not pledge you
more than, II again given your
trust, | will do my best to dis
charge my duty as my judgment
leads me to see it. And if it be
the peoples will that | again re-
present them in Congress. ! hope
that | may vote their sentiments
Alright when | continue in favor
OF less money for unnecessary Of
fee holders expenses and more
for pensions for the old soldiers
who saved this Union; lower
tariff taxes on the necessaries OF
life; an income tax; election OF
Senators by direct vote OF the
people: reciprocity with Canada
and our best customers and more
opportunity for those who work
and less for those who scheme.
Il want to also assure you, in
this connection, that if there is
any harsh reference to politica
competitors IN this campaign any
mud pies, tin pans or pitchforks
thrown or any insinuations that
the people are to be bowed down
in shame ii the majority votes
this way or that some other than
myself will do so, for | am re-
solved, as | was two years ago,
to win this race out in the open,
on the square, and in a gentle
manly way or not at all.
When you gave me the great
confidence of nomination two
years ago said to you that
could accept only on the condi-
ton that, if elected ! should be
free to work and vote for legis-
aation that | believed to be right
regardless OF dictates of party
politics. ! declared that | would
not be bound by party caucus
to vote for Legislation that | be-
heved to be wrong, and | here
emplratically re-affirm that posi-
ton and declare to you that
never have done so. and that
never will"

Robert q. lngersoll; The flag for

they died, is the symbolsof all we are
Of all we hope to be. 1t is an en-
blen Of equal rights; it means free
hands, free lips, self government and
the sovereignty Of the individual; it
means that this continent has been
dedicated to freedom, it means uni

that the school house ia the fortyess

that responsibility goes hand in hand
with liberty; it means that it is the
duty OF every citizen to bear his share

authority must not be poisoned; it
means the perpetual right Of peaceful
revolution it means that every citizen
OF the republic, native or naturalized.
must be protected at home in every
state, abroad in every land, on every
sea; it means that all distinctions
based on birth or blood have perish

lWil Chamberlain in Vermillion Republican,
Wesley.
Mr.. Vessey is a shrewd man. He
looks the Presby yterian, his features
are a little too sharp for an Episco-
palian. He is loyal temperance man.
He believes in woman's right to the
ballot. Free lances of certain type,
call him crank, He is not. It is
true that his administrator has been
a little expensive. Sometimes he ap-
pears tritle irritable. He Is the
logical result of a Puritanic English
ancestry.

Elrod, with his sober string tie and
somewhat gaunt aspect reminds one
|of class leader in the Methodist

man. Bat he points to a clean con
duet of executive affairs. A man
must not necessarily resemble Web
ster or Clay to be a solon. His friends
call him Sam and there are but few
Sans in the penitentiary. When Elrod

The fact that outside seed houses
send to South Dakota for pure seed
corn is gratifying to residents of this
state. South Dakotans long ago
realized the value of good seed corn.
After experimenting with seed from
the South they learned to use north
ern grown seed. Then they learned
to test their seed before planting it.
Now the older agricultural states
send to South Dakota for pure seed.
Who says that valor is dead? Who
maintains that the days of chivalry
are no more; that knights no longer
live who pin their lady's kerchiefs on
their breasts and go forth to face
dragons or the ciatiff foe? If such
there be, let them consider Slater Of
Virginia, Christian name and post
office unknown. He offers to marry
Carrie Nation. All other yalorous
deeds sink into insigniticance beside
this deed. Even the great faunal
naturalist now tearing Nalrobian
lions limb from limb and eating them
raw appears like an arrant coward
compared with Slater of. Virginia.
