SATURDAY. AUGUST 30.
TO THE PEOPLE or Dakota.

on TO vote for = Delegate to Congress-
See that your, choice 10 , wise and judi.
cous enc, and one that will conducs TO
the best interest Of Dakota
There are Two candidates brought for
ward, lone that old pioneer and friend o.
Dakota, Gen. ]. B. s. TopD, the man TO
whom you owe the treaty which opened up
the Territory for settlement, and to whom
you are indebted for the organization Of
Dakota, and the benefits you now enjoy
under that organization. His home is
with you, and his interests have ever been
identified with those Of yonr citizens.
The other candidate is Gov. WILLIAM
JAYNE, Of Illinois, who has so ably mis-.
governed you during the past year. The
man who has by fraud aud bribery sought
to gain that coveted posision-Delega.e
from Dakota Territory-and who still
hopes to accsmplish his ends With the aid
Of that rotten concern-the Surveyor Gen.
erals office-an Institution which has year.
y sent out Of the Territory thousands Of
dollars, which should have been expended
among your ci,izens,-and you all know
tha. you have as competent surveyors
among you a. any that have been import.
Cd from Michigan and Illinois.
He has sought to buy up pro.ely,es and
sotes BY appointing Democrats to county
Offices, supposing that tho honor attached
10 tie same would make them political
friends; but he has oversached the mark
his object was too transparent All pecn
MARY fAvors hs has distributed among
non residents, to the entire exclusion Of
citizens Of Dakota
Beyond bis actual expenses. he h.s not
d'soursed one cent in the Territory. Nov
We ask, what. has hs done for Dakota -
Nothing, absolutely nothing.-alikougL
certain wise Probate Judge in Yanktou
claims that without him there would be
no laws in the Territory. The Organic
Act explicitly states thai the Governor
shaH sign all enactments Of the LegisIa-
tive assembly. provided they meet his ap-
.prosai Tha. is weak argument in his
favor, a. any Governor would have to do
the same in his official capacity. In con,
nec,ion with his subject We would ask
what has become Of the Memorial oassed
BY the Legislature last winter, asking
Congress 10 change that portion Of the
Organic Act which gives the Governor an
unlimited veto power? Did tho Governor
ever sign i'll Has it ever seen the light7
We know that Congress adjourned With.
out making the desired alteration, and tho
people Of Dakota are sill at his mercy,
a, least for another session-and rumor
hints that the Governor says NE will no,
sign any bills unless the people vote for
him. We will see.
Gov. JAYNE ia an alien amongst YOU
His home is not in the Territory. His
official career since his arrival has not
been such As to enttls him to the esteem
or confidence Of the people. What claims
has be on you to demand your votes to
help send him TO Congress 7 We defy
the most ardent Of his supporters to men
uon any
JAMES friends say that Gen. Tom did
not procure for the Territory q sufficient
number Of appropriations last winter
Now We presume that the people Of Dakota
are ~ patriotic - any in the U. S., and
that nov in our country's hour Of peril"
when every dollar ia required to help put
down this accursed rebellion, that sou
are willing to Be moderate in your expec-
,atsons, and content yourselves with such
sums - are really requisite to sustain
your Territorial organization.
Then again-Gov JAYNE used all his
inausnce in Washington las. winter, 10
defeat every measure which Geal Tom
had in view for your benefit He opposed
him in every possible way and manner
Did Gov. JAYNE show by that course
that he had Vt heart The best inter.
ests Of Dakota, By refusing to cooperate
with your Delegate Most emphatically
not. What right has be then to expect
tavors at your hands.
Tho JAYsEIrEs claim that no party lines
have been drawn ia this campaign. We
win instance thf case Of Mr. IalsH, the
Peoples nominee for Territorial Treasurer
and who is BY the way a strong Repub-
hcan. After, the nomination the JAYNE
clique At VIZ Surveyor Generals Office,
told him that IL he consented to have his
name on.fhe Peoples's ticket, he would be
considered - being without the pale of
the Republican party, snd that party lines
had been drawn. Mr.. IRISH believed them,
Ind in card declined the nomination,
but afterwards. learning the falsity Of their
statements, be has requested that tho
public Be informed that the card" was
extor,ed from him, for the above reasons.
and that be now rspudiatss it, and wishes
The people to distinctly understand tha. he
sbidss BY, and sustains the nominations
Of the Peoples Convention Of tho 24,h oil
Thus Is deception p-actised. To Re. |
