We have concluded tliat it is" danger

we will have to write to you instead of
having a conversation. If seems that
ftie Herafd and Republican can not find
argument enough without using foul
means, if all reports are true w hich we
'j not d'ubt in the least, anil it may be
that the "ring" will liave to hunt for
greener pasture if the honest voter of
Sioux county will view the matter with
out regard to politics. Wliat we want to
know is tlie truth and we are willing to
fead both sides of the Question.

"Largely a Private Affair."
The coal trust tliat's "putting up prices"
Is "largely a private atrair!"
But the public who buy when the prices
are high,
Are giving the matter some care.
Yet the fact that tlie trusts are absorb
ing The people's light, water and air;
Must still be all right, since some people
of might
Says 'tis "largelv a private affair!"
Tlie poor man who buys by the scuttle
Ana the rich man who buys by the ton
Will have to keep warm when the win
ter winds storm
And the work of the coal trust is done.
But will they agree with the doctrine,
When tlie snow flakes are thick in the
air,
That the trust that lias "put nj" tho pri
ces Is "largely a private affair?"- Ex.
