ezFWe will inform e:Hoke'' in a few words that
Congress gave US a grant of land. After the bill
passed, it was discovered that very important
word had been altered, throwing the land into
| the hands of company obnoxious to Congress
and obnoxious to the Territory of Minnesota
| Honest men felt disguised with the whole matter
and therefore voted for the repeal of the bill
which took from Minnesota that which Congress
had given her. The fraud was committed by per-
sons interested in the railroad scheme, and who
were governed more by their own selfshncss thar
the interest Of the territory the ghts of the pco
pie. Our delegate, instead Of acting promptly oil
acting at all, has remained mum, and is therefore
responsible to 'Hoke' and others for all their trou-
bles. We pity s. Hoke,'; but we trust he will gel
his eyes open so as to vote understandngly at the
Fall election for those men and only those mel
who will pay little more regard to the interests
of their constituents than to their own persona
assrandizement. We would not advise 'Hoke' tt
90 to 'sBrasca - Minnesota is beautiful coun
try, and we wish him here to show corrupt specu
lators that they cannot trample upon honest mer
with impunity, neither can corruption exist il
high places without a thorough over hauling. W.
entertain no doubt but the next election will gt
on 'rale rodes," and that action will be taken by
the legislature to secure the interests Of the terri
tory from the greedy paw of unprincpled mc,.
As a matter Of course, speculatGrs who hav
been defeated lin their golacn plans, look 'glum.
This IS to bcexnac.ed. Whatever further light VIZ
can throw On the matter, VIC will furnish cheer
fully.--ED.
