DEADWooD WANTS SOMETHING
But We Can't Make Out Whether it Is
Division or . State.

Skv I w - SkWSos
Deadwood Times.
As the time approaches for the converting
of the legislature, the more important it be-
comes the people Of the Hills to take some
action towards securing such legislation as
is imperatively required and needed. We
have taken occasion heretofore to point out
a few of the important matters which have
suggested themselves upon which legisla-
ton could be a.ked with a reasonable ex-
pectation that it would be granted. But to
leave no doubt in the minds of the men,
bers of the legislature, and to afford them
no excuse for neglecting our interests, they
should be fully informed and made &C.
quainted with what it is that we desire. The
new territorial scheme which is being re.
vived and agitated by a number of our pco'
pie, should not make US Indifferent or neg
lectful of taking care of and guarding GU,
interests at Yankton, as that is of very
uncertain contamination at this SEES
sion Of congress, and if it ia ac-
legislation is equally essential. The new
territory could not DO organized and the ne
cessary legislation enacted under at least a
year, if in that time, from the passage Of the
enabling act by Congress, SO that we are as
much dependent upon the government at
Yankton for our legislation as if We had no
expectation or anticipation of a change in
our territorial government.
While We wish to see a full, dispassionate
and impartial discussion Of the territorial
and state questions, We are of the opinion
that we cannot hope for authority from Con
gress to organize = state for the reason that
the democratic house would fear its coming
in as a republican, state which in the evenly
balanced relations of the two parties, they
would not assent to, hence We are disposed
to regard the division Of the territory as
more probable and practicable, and in that
case we think a division on the 10th line of
latitude, running across the whole territory
would be the best, providing eastern and
northern Dakota are satisfied and will con-
tent to such division.
