GENERAL REMARKS day has been a
warm. pleasant day. Business generally con.
tinues to be very quiet.
The Cotton market was quickened somewhat
by the favorable advices from abroad, though
prices were not quotably higher. The sales
footed up TOO bales.
In Provisions the market was lamentably
quiet and dull. and we cannot mention any va
ration In the movement or prices of the
same.
In Sugar and Molasses there Is little or no
animation, the receipts being small and the de-
mand small. except for the best grades.
C0TTON-Under the influence OF favorable
adviees from abroad the market was stronger
although not auotably higher.
The sales comprised TOO bales.

Speaking of an attempt on the part Of a
bismarck correspondent to 90 for Col.
Lounsberry and others in the Press and
Dakotaian, in connection with the dele
gate question and the position of the Press
and Dako.aian on the same, the Dcadwood
Times says:
This is the right position for the newspapers
to take aud the closer they stick to the rule here
laid down the better it will he. not only for their
own good but the party at large, In this contest
tho important and essential point is to unite and
harnonize the republican party in the territory.
This accomplished. the election OF our nominee
will he nn easy matter. To this end the course OF
the Times kns been directed. md we rejoice that
it will be accomplished in all probability There
are n number OF gentlemen whose names have
been mentioned in connection with the delegate
chip: the tuTr prominent Candidates most fire.
q,c9tiv mentioned at the present are Judge Ben
nett, Coy: kiddcr. Col. Ioun.bcrry and Gen.
Dewey. Witt, either %: tlicsc gentlemen as our
siansiard-bc backed by the unanimous and
oarEc*. snppor. Of the republican votcrs. We
shall achieve an easy victory. L hey have thelr
friends and adhcrents. and each OF them has
superior abilities, and while we intend that the
claims of eIch shall have full and fair hearing
in our columns, yet We arc equally determined
that shall not be uaed NJ a medium to dctract
and abuse the one for the temporary qualification
OF another.
l: seemed strange, however, that the
Press and Dakotaiau should publish all
of the points made against Mr.. Lounsberry
and then rule out the thrusts at Others for
the reasons given which the Times so
heartily endorses
