Bismarck Land District.

This district is as large as the State of
New York and the above map shows its
location and extent. The distance east
and west is 255, miles and north and
south about the same. From the Mis-.
souri, to the Montana line the railway
measurement is 175 miles. The surveyed
land extends along the North Pacific rail-
road as far west as Eagles Nest or Range
80. The numbers Of the ranges are given
on the northern boundary line of Burleigh
and other counties, beginning with No.
81 and ending with No. 1O6. The town.
ships are marked on the eastern line of
the district. A township runs from the

and the reader can trace the township to

Common Sense.

The Memphis papers vigorously
opposed the 1908 settlement. The
Appeal accepts the situation in q
common sense view of it, as fol-
lows:
A law making cupons receivable
for taxes cannot be repealed or mod
flied by subsequent legislature nor
by new constitution of the state
duly adopted by the people of the
state, for the reason that the FEEDER
al constitution provides that "nO
state shall pass a law imparing the
obligations of a contract" An
agreement to receive the coupons of
the state in payment of state taxes
i "a contract that cannot be impaired
by either a legislative act or a con-
stitutional change in the organic
law of the state. Further agitation
of the subject would, therefore, be
little short of criminal. All that
could be done TO arrest the progress
of the bill during its passage was
done by the press and by the peo-
pie, and now that it is an irrepeala-
BILE law there is nothing left but to
submit to it like law-abiding citi-
zens. We hope the democracy of
the state will agree with US that the
debt question is no longer one for
political discussion-that it is set
tied, finally and forever.

CompIimentto Ben. Hill.

A monster floral ship, represen.
ting the Ship of State sailing in q
sea of flowers, covered the desk OF
Senator Hill, of Georgia on the
morning of March 30th. 1t was
sent from the ladies of Alexandria,
with the following note:
''These Verginia flowers, from
ladies of Alexandria, are presented
to Senator Hill, of Georgia, as a
public testimonial on their part of
their admiration of the brilliant
manner in which he recently ex-
posed the corrupt bargain made by
a Senator from Virginia on the one
part and the Republican party on
the other. This ship, Senator, has
not cleared from the White House,
nor is its voyage in quest of Federal
spOils. 1t is simply bound to a
Georgia Senator, because he has
anchored himself in the hearts of
true Virginians everywhere by the
timely and eloquent speech he has
made in defense of the honor and
preservation of the traditions and
in maintenance of the former illus
trious history of Virginia, when he
sheathed the sword of one of her
own Senators which had been
treacherously pointed to pierce her
fair fame"
The whole of the ship and the
sea was made of fresh and natural
flowers, and was a beautiful piece
of work. 1t was over four feet

makes a striking feature of the
campus. The fair outlines stand
forth and the interior arrangement
shows it to be perhaps the COM
pletest building in the United
States devoted to ministerial edu-
cation. Rev. James r, Plummer,

lege, will be House-gOvernor. He
and his accomplished family have
elegant accommodations in the
main building, and will not only
keep the Stewards Hall, but be at
the head of a well-regulated Chris
tian family of the largest dimen-
sions. About $50 theOlOgues can
be accommodated, besides Univer-
sity Fellows and Tutors. DR.. Plum

ton in June, but is now giving at

The Demoera,. WIN SICK.

REDFIELD: "Our party" said a
Democratic Senator to your cores
pondent, "has become notorious
for the ease with which IL backs
down. This is one of the times
when we shall attempt TO redeem
our reputation. We have a good
opportunity. We are spurred up
by the recollection of successive de-
feats. We intend to stick as long
as the provisions in Washington
last Z" 1t Is clear from the tone OF
conversation among Democratic
Senators that they intend an all
summers session rather than yield
the point. They allege that the
policy OF the party on such Occa-
sions had been that Of a crawfish,
moving backwards as the enemy
advanced.

circumstances Alter Cases.
Columbia journal.

1t is said that members of the
legislature made pledges during the
canvass which they are now unwil-
ling to violate. The change in cir
cumstances often make necessary a
change in opinion. Our members,
it is said, made pledges to vote
against the cupon feature, but as the
men who elected them and to whom
these pledges were made now re-
lease them from these pledges and
request them TO vote for the 1908
bill, they cannot hesitate TO do 80.
There is scarcely a man who voted
for Cooper, Wilkes and Perkins that
does not desire them to vote for the
1908 bill rather than have no set
tlement. The men to whom these
pledges were made, and whose votes
elected them, have a right to release
them from these pledges, and as
they have doneso, there Is no breach
of faith in obeying the instructions
and carrying out the will OF the
people who elected them.

what Malone Might Have Reen.


Washington Post.
Let us view the matter in anoth-
er phase. Suppose Malone had
come to the Senate as an Indepen-
dent, really determined to "read-
lust" the differences existing be-
tween the two great parties repre-
sented there. He would have been
a power. His vote would have de-
cided great political questions /;
made and unmade men, measures
and things. Parties might well
have bowed before him and veter-
an statesmen been taught to respect
him, His would have been the pO-
sition of a medeFn Warwick, a
man without party more power
full than the proudest of party lead
ers.
What a grand opportunity!
What did Malone do? He sold
himself, his vote, and his position
of power and responsibility for a
few petty Senate offices and some
Federal patronage.
