+. "GET OFF THE TRAcK."-Less than a year
ago company of men not used in the manual
of arms were paradng the streets and in some
way go onto the horse car track. The walking
was good there and they went along nicely un-
til.they met horse car, then there was trouble.
Neither of the officers knew what command to
give to prevent a collision with the car, and if
the officers had known it is doubtful if the
men would have been able to execute the
order properly. Seeing the danger young but
promising Lieutenant (for the time) cried out
"Get of the Track" which command was
readily understood, and the men ''stood not
upon the order of their going buG went at

Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, D.T. [N.D.]) 1875-1878, 1878-10-02

The editor of the Elk Poiut Courier ap-
peals to those who lay in southern prisons
and to those who fought and bled for their
country's cause, not to forget the past, but
to stand by their colors and to vote for
Bennett in the present campaign. The
plea to vote for Bennett for party reasons
or because be is able and honest, is very
we'll, but those of us who did lay in rebel
prisons; those of MS who did bleed for our
country's cause, really desire to forget.
For one we do not wish to recall the suffer
ing endured during a year spent in rebel
prisons, nor do we wish 10 recall the suff-
ering of night of storm spent among the
dead and wounded on southern battle
field. We have no occasion to go into
politics to be reminded of the pains result
ing from shattered limbs, nor do we be-
lieve those who have seen and felt the hor-
rors of war wish to have them brought up
again and again in every political cam
paign We have no words of denuncia-
ton only for those Democrats who re-
mained at home and rejoiccd when our
flag trailed in the: dust Among our asso-
ciates in the army were men brave and
true, who, before the war, voted and who
now vote the Democratic ticket. They
are entitled to their share of credit and it
is a shame that the politics of to-day can
not be fought on the issues Of the day. If
there are no issues but the bloody shirt OF
the past, better frankly own it and conduct
the campaign on personal grounds.

VA1edictory.

i
It Is with sigh of relief that we drop
the pen editorial, and retire wholly from
the editorial and business management Of
the TRIBUNE, which has been purchased
by Stanley Huntley, for some years con-
nected with the Chicago press, and after
wards with the Washington Post
1t is we'll known that we have desired TO
retire from the management of the TRI-
BUNE for two years past-since our pro.
tracted illness in 1S76-but the opportun-
ity has not occurred until now. We leave
it because we need rest, our business in
terests need attention, and tits to our finan-
cial interests to do SO. = q
The TRIBUNE falls into good hands.
Mr.. Huntley will give his patrons bright
er and livelier paper than we have ever
been able to give, and will be faithful in
battling forthe local interests of Bismarck,
as all will concede We have been. I.
Bismarck will, no doubt, form the main
plank in his platform, as he believes with
us thatswhateyer contributes to the inter
csts of Bismarck and helps its business
men, contributes to his success.
8: The TR1BUEF was at first published as
an Independent paper. Aftcrward it was
called Republican because many could
not understand why it was not neutral;
but its tone has never changed, and when
our successors rake over the past they will
undoubtedly find among the embers not
few live Goals that, they will endeavor to
use in warming Republican candidates;
but the record will be found consistent
one. From this time forward the TRI-
BUNE, under new management, will be
Democratic. And it is proper it should
be, for large majority of its warmest
friends and patrons are and have been
Democratic. roc ta ET&
With these few parting words we bid
our readers goodbye, confident that they
will be better pleased with the TRIBUNE,
under its new management, than under
the old. C. A. LouNsBERRY

Local POlitic9.

There is disposition, INDUCED by
many, to join in a coalition movement for
the election of county and city officers this
fall. The proposition seems to involve the
reelection of most of our city and county
officers, both parties having nearly an
equal representation.
The proposition involves support of W.
B. Watson for county treasurer: John H.
Richards for register; B. F. Slaughter for
coroner; Robert BIacnider for commits
sioner; Geo. Peoples for mayor; and the
city council about as it now stands
Gto. Peoples proposes to resign as coun-
ty commissioner, and J. G. Molloy has
been named in his stead.
p R. Smith declines to be candidate
for reelection as Judge Of Probate, and
the name of E. N. Corey has been suggest
ed instead
Mr.. Slaughter declines to be candidate
for superintendent of schools, and VIM.
Thompson, an old teacher and one of our
ablest men in the county, is suggested in
stead Mr.. Geo. 81. Fairchild, one of the
trucst and best of men, and one who is in
every respect qualified, is also named for
the position.
John Bowen is urged for assessor, and
D. W. Maratta, Ansley Gray, D. o. Pres
ton and John Garland are named for leg
islative positions. Clark is mentioned for
reelection as city clerk, and W. II. Thurs
ton for city treasurer in place of Dan Els
enberg, who is understood to decline
to be a candidate for reelection Stoyell
will be generally supported for district at
torney, and the contest, in case Of the
adoption of such q ticket, will be wholly
between Tripp and Bennett
Alex Mckenzie, of course, will be re-
elected sheriff. He is one of the very best
officers in that capacity in the Territory,
and it would be impossible to beat him on
any ticket on which he might run. In
deed the entire ticket suggested is good
one and can not we'll be improved.

The Inter State, published in Duel coun-
ty, says: "Wc are u new conner, and are
not yet very we'll posted as regards the
politics of the Territory consequently we
have not said much nor taken so acti We a
part as we shall in future campaigns.
There is one thing, however, now being
disguised by the press Of the Territory,
which is indeed gratifying to US, and that
is, that both parties seem to be q unit in
favoring the project for the admission !, OF !
Union. The project for the division Of
the Territory seems to be abandoned, and
in this we must say its projectors and ad-
vocates are exhibiting good sense. If we
wish to ensure the greatest good to the
greatest number, we should concentrate all
endeavor in securing the end desired by
the maior part of our people the admis-
sion OF the prosperous, growing Territory
of Dakota into the sistcrhood Of the States
Of the Union.

stage Robbery.

The iron.clad treasure coach which LEFT
this city yesterday morning by the Chey-
ennc route was robbed at Canyon Springs,
about o'clock yesterday afternoon, and
man by the name of II. y. Campbell, tel
egraph operator en- route to Custer, Was
killed by the brigands. The stock tender
at the station, which is only about thirty
five miles from Deadwood, arrived hero
this forenoon and related the followingpar-
ticulars of the affair:
Shortly before the arrival of the coach .
man on horseback rode up and asked for .
drink of water. Upon dismounting, he at
once ordered the stock tender to throw up
his hands which he WAS not long in doing,
room of the stables. BY this time the band,
five in number, all got in aud proceededto
make arrangements fJI the capture of the
coach They removed the dirt from be-
tween the logs near the door Of the stable,
where the stage always stops, and upon its
arrival opened fire from their positiOns
on the inside. Campbell was struck in tho
head, man named Smith was wounded,
but the extent OF his wound is not known.
Gale Hill, one of the messengers, was hit
in the side, and in one of his arhs, break
ing it. Scott Davis got away from the
coach and taking position behind tree
opened fire on the robbers. Soon after
this the bandits rounded up all the men
about the place and tied them to trees,
saying that at 10 o'clock man would be
along to release them. Immcdiatsly upoE
securing their victims they removed the
safe from the coach and opened it. This.
the stock tender says, required several
hours of work. Upon the completion OF
this job the robbers took to the woods, hut

bring before the people in vivid charac.
tiers the horrors Of the war.
The TR1BuNE has urged, and still urges,
/ Republicans to stand by their colors. The
Republican party is bound to live. The
Liberal wane passed away and the best ell
ements engaged in that movement, having
accomplished their purpose-forced the
Republican party into an effort To reform
itself-returned to their allegiance The
Granger excitement f1ourlshed for time,
but died leaving the Republican party
stronger in the States where it took deep
est root just now labor reform and green
backs are demanded by the masses in some
of the States, but the grand old Republi-
can party will survive these excitements
and will enter on new career of useful
ness.
The Republican party is the true reform
party; the party Of progress; the party of
freedom. 1t ls the party that believes in
internal improvements; believes in using
public moneys to promote the public good
believes in improving our rivers; in ex-
tending our railroads lin building, at pub.
lie expence if necessary, competing lines,
1t believes in the homestead and tree cul-
ture laws, which it gave to the country;
in honest money; in extending our public
surveys; in giving the people employment
and in aiding them when in distress.
Kick away Mr.. Press and Dakotian, but
the day will come when the TRIBUNE's
liberal Republicanism will shine in com
parison with the dull lustre to be seen on
the arms of the after the war heroes
2 Our spirit is broad enough to take in the
whole Territory. The Press and Dakotian
has never been able to see any good out
side the corporate limits of the city of
Yankton, and it rarely ever has good
word for any one or any interest outside
of Yankton. And it's desperate efforts to
paddle alone the Republican canoe is
amusing or disgusting, according to the
mood of the locker on.
