Judge Kfdder's Interview With a Wash.
fngton Newspaper.
Washington Post, Sept. srd.
Judge j. P. Kidder, delegate in congress
from Dakota, arrived in the city yesterday,
and last evening the Post paid him a visit.
He reports Dakota prosperous and entirely
free from any fear of Indian depredations.
II am going," he said. next winter to make
a strong effort to get Dakota admitted as a
state. The territory is ready for it now.
We have q population of 100000, and by
the time she can be admitted it will reach
10000"
us your population increasing so rapidly
as that, judge" asked the Post.
YES" he replied. lit will take q year at
least to get the territory formally admitted,
least 10000. Why, $4,000 emigrants have
settled in Dakota this ,year. The demo-
cratic house objects to admitting the terri
tory on the ground that 1t will be q repub.
lican state, and give two more republican
senators. But I say there is no certainty
about its being a republican state. The en-
igrants are mostly locating In the Black
Hills, and nearly oil of them are democrats.
That will make the state pretty close"
"You got a big majority for congress two
years ago, didn't your"
"Yes, l was elected by nearly 1000 major
ity; but the Black Hills didn't vote then /;
they were not organized. This year they
will vote. and that will make q great diff
ference. Two years ago the total vote was
only 5000. and this year 1t will reach 49,
500 or 1900"
"Then you don't feel sure of your re.
election!"
"Ob, I'm not q candidate this year. I've
served two terms and now propose to retire
and give some of the boye a show. think,
though, the vote is going to be very close,
and 10 my opinion can't be counted On to
make q republican state. I'm going tn do
my best to get her admitted next winter"
"What has become Of the proposition TO
make a new territory Of part of Dsko-
taY"
II think that has been abandoned. as l
haven't heard any mention of 1t for some
time. That cannot be accomplished any
how. Dakota and Washington, too, must
be admitted to the union before . great
while"

ritory, are warned that it Is their duty to
cast their votes against character, honesty,
integrity and ability, because but q short
time has elapsed between the coming and
the candidacy. II is a well.known fact that
had Judge Bennett permitted his judicial
position to be made a commodity In the
market of corruption, objection number two
could not be placed against him. He would
have owned houses and lands In Dakota
territory had he turned for a moment aside
from the line of strict integrity and by the
weight Of decision given In favor of mon.
ey power bartered his honor for that which
possesses 80 great an attraction in eyes of
bis democratic opposers. The honest man
will not be influenced by an argument of no
greater merit than this. He will in his
heart give preferencet to one in whom he can
place implicit trust, and the promptings of
his heart will give direction to his vote.
Judge Bennett has been a resident of
Dakota between three and four years, dur
ing which time he has made his home in
Vermlllion and Yankton. He came here
when Dakota's population aggregated less
than one-half its present numbers and has
aided in the wonderful development of the
later years OF our existence as a territory,
At no other time than in the heat of a great
campaign would it occur to cven his most
active enemies that he was not wholly one
of us-a resident who could base his claim
upon the years he had been with us.
The voters of Dakota should further be r
in mind that the very condition in which
Judge Bennett is placed will rebound to
their interests when he becomes tho dele.

be given to the people. The most success

with business cares of q personal nature
must necessarily devote a portion of the
time for which they are paid to serve the
people in attending to their own matters.
The people become the sufferers by the
neglect which comes out of the necessities
of the case. Judge Bennett will be able to
fix his residence in Washington during his
term of Office, Shouldn't he deemed advisable,
and there labor increasingly fol the people.
All things considered, we believe the fair
minded voters of Dakota will conclude that
1t is best to send an honest poor man TO
congress. He will be so much like them.

them and harmony of action will result. He
can remain all the time at the scene of his
labors uninterrupted by personal matters
and will have no private aims to reach 1.-THE
expense of those whom he serves.

PENNSYLVANIA POLITICS

What effect the greenback.labor move.
ment, especially the recent revolution in
Maine, will have on the Pennsylvania
canvass, is, of course, the first question
that presents itself. Will the new Ma
tional party hold the balance of power
here? And, if so, which of the old par
ties will be most weakened by its pres
tige? Finally, is "there likely to be a
coalition, as in Maine, of the Democratic
and National forces with like result /?
Primarily, it looks as though the effect
of the Maine defeat had already been to
demoralize the Republican masses in
Pennsylvania. This is the opinion of
disinterested men among them the vet.
eran politician and successful editor, AL
exander McClure-who have long been
accustomed to study political tendencies
in the Keystone State. The Republicans,
bound by their State platform to hard
money doctrine, are virtual out of SYM
pathy with the greenback element, al
though in some localities they have fall
sihed their professions in order to effect
a compromise with it. On the other
had, the Democrats, who had been out
of power in the State for twenty years
until they carried it last fall are hopeful
and full of fight. They care little in the
main tor hard money or far soft money,
but they do care for success. Had they
benin a hopeless minority, as they were
in Maine, the effect of the Maine cleo
ton would have been to transfer them
almost bodily over to the National party
Strong SSas they are, greedy for power,
andwith none of the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
which prolanged possession of power
breeds in party, they have entered the
campaign determined to win. AS far as
possible they will Gstrive independently,
but theyrrare confident, too, that they
will be aided by friendly understanding
with the Nationals i'm many important
localities.
