STILL ANOTHER COUNTY.
The Hon. John A. Stoyell arrived in
Bismarck yesterday from a successful trip
up the Red River valley, and was invited
by number of Democrats and honest Re-
publicans to speak at the Opera House in
the evening, and refute the arguments and
show up the fallacies shot off by Judge
Bennett the night before.
The acceptance of the invitation by Mr..
Stoyell jammed the Opera House full of
the leading Democrats and better class of
Republicans, who listened with the ut
most interest and frequently cheered en-
Enthusiastically the able manner in which
one of the severest logicians in the Re.
publican ranks tore to pieces the shallow
pretentions of the candidate Of the Bis
marck Bennett club.
Mr.. Stoyell was introduced to the as
semblage by Col Thompson in few
graceful remarks which captivated the
audience in the start. The speaker of the
evening opened by saying that in appear
ing before the audience as AIN honest ad-
vocate for the election Of Baplett Tripp as
delegate to Congress he renounced none of
those principles which had formerly allied
him to the Republican party, but only de.
sired the election of
BARTLETT TRIP
as Delegate, who for thirteen long years
had been a constant resident of the Terri
tory of Dakota, and an earnest advocate of
every principle which seemed to portend
her future prosperity. He discussed the
greenb back question, and argued that it all
simmered itself down to an important is
sue between labor and capital. The most
important legislation, he argued, ofthe
past sixty years tor the protection of cor
porations had been instituted with y view
of assisting the masses, whereas, in fact,
the benefits had really accrued to specula-
tors and adventurers, who had benefited
thereby under the. insidious guise of hon.
est reformers. 81 tz
Coming down to practical application
of politics to the wants Of the people of the.
Territory, Mr. Stoyell contended that our
prosperity rested fundamentally on the adj
mission of Dakota as q State. He demon
strated clearly that it lay beyond a perad-
venture that the next Congress would be
Democratic, and proved conclusively that
in order to- induce, favorable legislation
the Delegate from the Territory must be
in sympathy with the political aspect OF
Congress. In his argument he completely
shattered the feeble efforts ofJudge Ben
nett, who streve to show that it all depen-
ded on the Departments at Washington,
and that it was necessary to elect a Rad
ical to complete the destinies Of the people
Of the Territory. 4. His. plea proved that
Congress was the father of the Territories,
and not a carpet bag holder OF high
toned clerkship who would only listen
when feed in advance, and that Congress
was more successfully approached through
Its own political stripe than through any
gentleman who S.M.,zs ar
f. CAME IN WITH A COMMISSION,
and went out without even a residence.
Mr. Stoyell gave the facts to show that
Bartlett Tripp had thoroughly identified
himself with every material interest of
the Territory; that he is one OF the ablcst
jurists living in Dakota, and that no mo-
tive, act or thought of his could be ques-
toned as to its purity.
Throughout the whole speech Mr.. Stoy-
ell was eloquent, logical and forcible. 1t
was manifest that he hated to attack a
man even pretending to represent Repub
lican principles, but it was also manifest
that he thought honestly that Bennett is
not the man to represent the Territory in
Congress, and the audience, to a man,
Democrat and Republican, agreed with
him.
Bartlett Tripp, thesnext delegate to con-
gress, from Dakota, made trip down the
Red River valley that was entirely salts
factory. In Richland he made a stirring
address that told we'll for his party: In
such strong Republican town as Grand
Forks Tripp IS holding Bennett more than
level His whole voyage was marked with
series of which not only demonstrate his
personal popularity but show that the vote
Of the valley willbe overwhelmingly DEM
ocratic.
