ment of c. F. Rosstsuscher& Co. ID in con-
dition to fill all orders for bottled beer. 1t
has been necessary for the proprietors ofthis
establishment TO make many radical changes
in order to fit themselves for successful COM
petition with eastern breweries in this epe-
cialty. They have put themselves in shape
for the work, however, and are now supply
plying a large trade with bottled lager
which lie fully equal to the celebrated Mil
waukee product. There is a large
demand for bottled beer, particularly
for family and garrison uses and quite an
extensive trade hasgrown out o this demand.
eastern lager has supplied the
wants of the people and thus a large proper
ton Of the money paid for it has gone to
eastern producers. Messls. Rossteuscher &
Co., have just put themselves in shape to
fill these orders, and as the quality of their
goods is fully equal to that of foreign manu-
~facture, their home industry is entitled to
patronage. They will work up a large bust
ness, without doubt, and We desire only to
give a word of recommendation and encour-
agement to a local business.

cate, and accompanied by q bond in the sum
Of ten thousand dollars $4,000, executed
in legal form BY two or more responsible
parsons, certified az fully responsible by a

RIVER TRANSPORTATION.

RIVER TR TRANSPORTATION.
The Matter Yet Undecided-Iast " the
Bidders.
Sioux City Journal, 10Th.
The question as to who will be victor in
securing the contract for doing the army
transportation the coming season on
the Missouri, Yellowstone and Big
Horn rivers, has not yet received
anything like n solution. The bids, thirteen
in number, were, as We have stated, opened
at St. Paul last Thursday by Gen. c. H.
Tompkins, chief quartcrmastcr of the de-
partment Of Dakota, and from every gentle
maj We have seen who was there We secure
stuff. A friend in St. Paul sent us a tele-
gram late Thursday evening, the purport of
which we published yesterday morning, an
nouncing that Colonel G. X. Peck had put
in the lowest bid for Missouri transportation,
and that Commodore kountz was lowest on
the Yellowstone. We hear now that it is
Commodore Coulson who has the lowest fig.
ure on the Missouri. 1t will take at least .
month to decide the matter. The necessity
for this amount of time is in the following
circumstances The bids are made
for carrying pound freight, men
horses, wagons, etc, for fifty miles,
a hundred miles OF numbers of hundreds of
miles-so much for certain months, and so
much for the remainder of the season, the
difference in months being made 10 com
pensate for the difference in the stages OF
water at various seasons. 1t is necessary
then for the authorities to compute, what
will be made, the months in which they
will be made, and other matters in regard
to the business. all of which Is necessary in
order to tell whe proposes to do the sea.
sons transportation business for the gov
eminent at the lowest figures. Commodore
Coulson put in a peculiar bid. in the way of
. sort of schedule. setting forth definitely
the figures for every kind Of shipment for
every length of distance for every month
10 the seasen-something unlike any other
bid, and if it be entertained there is little
doubt that it is considerably the lowest.

IMPORTANT PARTNERSHIP LAW.

From q trial before Judge Beadle, and
his decision therein. we note one feature of
the civil code which has probably not re-
ceived the attention which its terms de.
mand. 1t is upon the use by firms of fcti-
tious or other partnership names, which do
not show the names of persons interested
- partners in such business. The trial in
question was one where an individual was
sued, and he answered that it was a partner
ship firm tina: made the contract, and not
himself individually, whereupon he prayed
that the action abate for %nonjoinder OF
proper parties defendant There were sew
eral other legal points and issues. Upon
this, however, the court decided against the
defendant, under the statute in question,
citing it Is sufficient without considering
other reasons urged pro and con. The law
in question is on pages 429-430, revenue
codes, sections 1443 to 1448 inclusive.
These require that "every partnership
transscting business in this territory under
. fictitious name, or . designation not show.
lex t0o 00u1Co " tAV pVA6OuS AAtClCoVCA a.
partners in such business, must file with the
clerk Of the district court of the county or
subdivision in which its principal place Of
business 10 situated q certificate stating the
names in full of all the members of such
partnership and their places of residence,
and publish the same once . week for four
consecutive weeks in q newspaper printed
in such county, &C."
The other sections provide the method of
making, and the acknowledgment and filing
of the certificate, the registry Of persons and
firms, and for proof by certified copies. The
last clause of section LAS provides that
"Persons doing business as partners contrary
to the provisions of this article, shall not
maintain any action upon or on account of
any contracts made or transactions had in
their partnership name, in any court of this
territory, until they have first filed the Ger
tificate and made the publication required"
In the case referred to the allegation of
partnership was held to be Affirmative mat
ter of defense and the burden of proof upon
the defendant to show . compliance with the
law the same IS if in q complaint by them
~ plaintiffs. We presume there are few of
the many such partnershipsin Dakota which
have complied with this Law. 1t applies to
old and new firms alike. The interests Of
such firms will doubtless lead to an early
opening Of this registry.

There is an irrepressible conflict going
on between the miners Of Nevada and Pla-
GER counties, California and the Changers
along Bear river in Yuba county. The
question is one of damage, and q suit at
law is now pending. '~'Slickens" is the
term applied to the sediment washed from
the mines and deposited On the land of
the agricultural people below. A large
number Of experts have been summoned to
tell what they know about ''slickens'-
nothing can be done these days without ex-
pert testimony. The Grass Valley Union
of the goth instant, has this in reference to
the great case:
The celebrated "slickens" case, the suit
Of the Bear river farmers against certain
hydraulic mining companies of Nevada and
Placer counties, comes up for a final hear
ing before District Judge Keyser, of Yuba
city, Suffer county, on the 25th instant.
A number of gentlemen who are interested
as attorneys, principals and witnesses on
the side of mining companies were in town

A bastard quota, less than a quorum of
a legislature, met in New Orleans, and
when proceeding to act as a Legislature
and certain Republican members sought to
withdraw from the hall, the Speaker OF
these impostors ordered q Federal officer
to prevent their leaving Enterprise.
That is not true in any sense. and tho
E.terprise editor knows it as well as lie
that the Democratic speaker himself was
taken from his desk by armed Federal
soldiers and elected from the building. He
knows also that q military understrsppc was
stationed at the door with power to say
who should and who should not enter, de-
Gliding in fact contrary to every SEM
blance of law, who were members and who
not. Every legislative body in this coun-
try is clothed with power to judge OF the
election and qualification of its own men,
bers. This rule has never been departed
from, save under carpet-bag domination
at the South. II there we're cases OF con-
test in the Louisiana Legislature, 1t be-
longcd to the members whose seats we're
not contested to decide them without inter-
ference from the military or any other power
on earth. The fact that the military was
there at all, is prima tacie that it was there
wrongfully, and the fact that the Enter
prise editor ~justifies it being there in any
shape, is also proof positive that he, as rep
resentative Republican, does not object to
placing the military above the civil author
ity when a mean partisan advantage is to
be gained thereby. This is all we asserted
from the start. The Enterprise editor con-
victs himself.
