THE Republicans accuse Mr.. English,
Democratic candidate for Vice President,
with collecting what is due him by fore
closing mortgages, mostly, however, on
land speculators, who bought to speculate
on, and were unable to meet their pay

Republican business men in the country
who would not foreclose to get their
money back, One thing, however, they
never have accused Mr.. English of, and
that is, of being susceptible to bribeI

TIE wall that comes from Maine

A VILLAGE Organization.

The time is rapidly approaching when
it will be necessary for jamestown to
take out village charter. At the present
time it is utterly impossible to properly
control it, or protect the legal rights Of
civil citizens. We have no respectable
side walks. and probably never will have
until our village is possessed of 9 coun-
Gil who will have the power to force their
construction, if necessary. Cattle, hogs
and horses are permitted to shake their
odoriferous narratives in the faces of our
citizens. and plaster our sidewalks and
streets with filthy offerings. This evil
ought to be removed without a village or
ganizarion, but is not, and never will be.
A village organization would increase the
tax of village property owners, to be sure;
but the increase Of tax would be but
little more than the increase in the valu-
alton Of the property. Enough would
lie realized out of fines and licenses OBJ
tanned from travelling shows and humbngs
to make up the difference.

TIVE.
Just one year ago to-day we issued the
Alert for the first time in Jamestown Il
we have improved it. or been instlumen-
tai in furthering the interests Of your mag
n,fcent county and enterprlsing village
give US credit for it and we are happy.
1t has been our aim to labor. for the gen.
eral advancement of public interests.
and not to the advantage Of any one in.
dividual or clique. If we have failed to
do so we have committed one Of the sad
dest failures of our lives.
Experience teaches us that paper sit.
uatcd as The Alert is, should be fearlcss>
ly independent and feel entirely free.
regardless of individuals, to discuss all
matters of public importance and local
interest. We can not do justice to the
county at large by favoring individual
preferences, any more than your represen-
tative in congress can deal fairly by the
whole territory by giving particular at
tention to certain localities to the neglect
Of Others.
Personally, we are purely republican
not because we think all democrats are
rebels, as some would have i, but because
we believe republicanism to be founded
upon principles Of loyalty and justice. But
in SO much as Stutsman county is about as
near democratic as it is republican, and
in view of the fact thai The Alert recei
YES liberal support from both parties
we deem it wise to be, politically, indie
pendent-not nutral.
We have said some harsh things during
our stay among you, but We could not
help 1t. The only way to kill public
evil, effectually, is to let it be generally
known that one exists, aud public
op inion will revolt against it, and remove
it. So.4.e say we are too personal. Per.
haps this is true in some instances, but as
a rule it is not a good plan to brand the
whole community with the hellisbness OF
a single individual. If people do bad
thing they can only expect bad results.
If you do not want to see scandalous arti
clcs in The Alert, all We have to say is, do
DOT furnish the material. To publish the
newsis our legitimate business, and we con.
slider it honorable to publish ali We can
&c: without stopping to think whether it
will please the manufacturers Of it or not
There is not another newspaper in the
broad territory of Dakota that is support
ed as literally as this same Alert There
IS not another set of business men in all
the states and territories combined that
stand by their home paper, with the zca
the business men Of jamestown have
stood bv US. Instead of ignoring ouI
paper because it was small, or encouraging
palties to start a larger one, they have
gone do wn into their pockets and helped
us build larger Why have they done
so? Simply because they believed thai
we had done the best we could with thai
which we had, and because we did all We
| were able to do, to further their interests
and the interests of the place. We heart
lily thank every man, woman and child To-
the many kindness they have shown us
and can assure them that in the future a.
in the past the eight of our ambition
shall be to give them good paper.

Special Correspondence to the Alert.
The postmaster here finds that the
democratic congressional committee is
abusing the Thanking privilege, and has
very properly notified the officers that the
laws in regard to postage on mail matter
must be respected. Probably the COM
mittee did not need more than hint, and
will reform the practice at once. a
The political sensation of the day is
General Hancock's letter concerning the
''rebel claims" 1t has been reported that
the General would, and that he would not
follow the example Of Mr.. Tilden in this
matter. The letter he has now written
is as emphatic rcpudiation of rebel
claims as the most dent republican could
ask for. He also takes occasion to state
that claims growing out of the war,
whether of Southern Union or Northern
Union men, should undergo careful scru
tiny before pay ment, as the lapse of time
has perhaps given the United States a
right to consider them barred.
Meetings were held IN this city last
week in the interest Of a worlds conven-
tion to be held in 1888, to consider the
question of the settlement of national dis
putes by arbitration and thus prevent
was in future. Those interested in the
meetings found great satisfaction in the
way they were attended and announcing
that they will be resumed next week.
They will be held semi>monthly during
the winter, and an effort will be made to
secure congressional legislation on the
subject during the next session of Con-
gress.
