THE CABINET.

AS announced il the extra issued bv us
last night, it appears that the question as
to formation of the cabinet has already
been decided. Senator Blaine is named
for Secretary oi State. There is no doubt
that with such positive character as Mr..
Blaine at the head of foreign affairs the
United States will yield no small influence
in the diplomacy of the world. New
England will no doubt be heard from on
the fishery question, and if Mr.. Blaine
should insist on more equitable dlspo-
sition of the subJect he may gain the con-
f1dence and support of Massachusetts, a
State that has heen in opposition to him
ever since he launched his thunde, bolts
against her the sessi m following his first
defeat in the convention at Cincinnati
The Maine Senator will no doubt do honor
to the position.
Morton, of New York, is noted for two
things. al able 6nancier and personal
friend OF Conkling. He has been at the
head of an influential banking institution
in New York for number of years.
Lincoln, named for Secretary of war, is
son OF the amentcd president; young
man of fine legal attainments. snd will
undoubtedly make good secretary.
Winiom is an "Ohio" man. He follow
cd the profession of the law in that state
until The year 1855. Served continuously
as member Of congress from Minnesota in
the 36th, 37th, 39th 3Sth anI 4Oih con-
gress. In 1870 was appointed to ill tie
unexpired term of Senator Norton, de-
ceased, since which time he served con-
tiuuously in the United States Senate un-
til the democrats came into power. He
was chairman of the Committee on Ap-
preparation, which position he illed with
great credit to himself and his state. He
will be remembered by the west though,
for the "Report on transportation Routes
to the Seaboard,' a report which pointed
out the path to secure cheap transporta-
tion-the opening and improvement of
our water ways, etc, and through his ef.
forts large sums have been expend, d in
improving the Missouri, Yellowstone,
Mississippi and other rivers, and the west
will be sure Of one staunch friend in the
cabinet, il WiLdom receives the nomina-
ton.
Hunt, of Louisiana, named for Postmas-
ter General, is not 50 we'll known; but we
have no doubt he will make good Post
master, and, if he is good republican we
can afford to let TIE south have voice in
the government.
Wayne McVegh is noted character,
opposes the Cameron party in Pennsyl-
vauia. His influence is not exerted in
behalf Of the stalwarts, and we are sure if
the parties named above compose the fu-
ture cabinet the repub leans will be like
Iy to prosecute a more vigorous policy
than has been conducted under the meth
DDS of President Hayes.
Samuel j. Kirkwood was born in Mary
land, lived in Washington. and moving to
Ohio in 1885 took all active part in poll
tics. filing the position of prosecuting at
torney, and assisting in forming the state
constitution Of that state in 1851. In
1855 he removed to Iowa; was: Minister
to Denmark under President Lincoln;
he has has been governor Of the state aud
is United States senator.

ED. ALERT.-Will some one rise and
explain? Tne Weekly alert is received
here every Saturday, but only one copy
marked R. z. G. who is not ut home Just
now, while the rest of the ungcdly have
to wait four days longer before they get
it. We canaot stand this much longer.
The depravity of some people here in Ell
bridge passes belief, and unless we have
our weekly on Saturday night so as to fit
us tor the coming Sabbath, fear there is
little hope torus. Now it cannot be de-
MED that The Alert IS great moral
teacher, and in this county we must have

l. W. Barnum, who is furnishing the
Brooklyn Argus with series of articles
concerning the great Northa est, has the
following to say on the "Capitol City"
question:
"The future capital Of Northern Dakots
is jamestown, which is only shurt tide
from Ssnborn. The natural beauty Of
jamestown imprcsses one IN an instant.

One OF our real estate agents this
morning received a letter from a
party in California, aud another from
aparty in Kansas, stating next month
they would be here with their fami.
lies. 1t would seem that we are the
centre Of attraction just now and
that settlers are coming from the
west as well as the far east. Kansas
has seen her best days, and with the
aid Of the two great Chicago corpo-
rations the prospects are that bit a
few years will pass by before we
will have large and thrifty popula-
ton, and the prairie around us will
be dotted with farm houses and wav-
ing fields Of grain on every hand,
and at the depot in jamestown we
will hear the conductor shout, "All
aboard for San Francisco, Alaska,
Yokoholna and Pekin," while another
train will carry the traveller south to
Galveston, New Orleans and the
City of Mexico, and eastern trains
will carry passengers on their way
to New York, London and Paris.

JAMESTOWN STITsMAN COUNTY, D. I, 4, 1881.

There are thousands Of acres Of
unsurveyed lands along the proposed
jamestown and Mouse River branch.

In our columns 4 few days since
we made mention Of the fact that a
bill had passed making it possible
for S,utsman county to bond itself
for the purpose of erecting new
court house and for the urpose of
establishing a normal school in
Jamestown. Some, we observe, are
inclined to believe that Stu>man
county has already been bonded, or
was about to be for the purpose men
toned. Now it ought to be plain to
all. and we apprehes,d that it is to
the greater portion of the voters of
Stutsman county that the ac, refer
red to is nothing more than an en-
abling act. The question of whether
Stutsman county shall or shall not
bond itself, is left with the people.
Legislation only grants the people of
S!utsman county a perrmio to bond
itself in case it should desire to do
SO. 1t must be clear to every one
that the time is not far distant when
it will be almost absolutely necessa y
for US to have larger and more
co,nElodious court house. The pres
ent buildiag is nice enough So far as
it goes, but it comes very far from
being capable of accommodating the
business IF the county at the present
time. Both the register of deeds
and county treasurer's offices are al
together too small, and the incum-
bents are compelled to labor uader
great disadvantages.

Another wear has passed and W. are here

cnccs of II moral and physical nature, which
90 10 make up true manhood and woman

stands peerless in her motherhood, IN that
her children were born free, notwlihStand-

Gen. JACEsoy, our Consul at Halifax, in
an official statement respecting the alleged
frauds in the Dominion fishery statistics,
says that according TO the official figures
the value Of the Canada fisheries in 1879 was
exactly double the value in 1870. There are
great discrepancies in the totals figured up
by the Minister of Marine and the Fishery
Commissioners, sometimes amounting 10
over 81 ,0OO,0 900 in 4 single year. The Do
minion statistics show that the United States
must have taken nearly every mackerel
eau yht by the Canadian boatmcn. From
1870 to 1879 the value Of the export trade is
placed at S5,45l ,G6l and during the same
period the value Of the mackerel sent TO this
country is alleged to have been Si,01O,G99.
while the same figures show that the value
of the mackercl fishing was less than one
seventh Of the fish products of the Dominion
for this period. In the different Canadian
reports the aggregate value of the Canada
iish-catch is undoubtedly greatly over-csti-
mated \ comparison OF the reports from
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick made by
Dominion authorities and those made by
local officials reveal similar inaccuracies.
