ADMISSION OF DAKOTA.

It is already visible THAI dis
graceful squabbie i, ilkelj ensue
between the republicans AID dem
ocrats over the admission Of Dako-
ta az a state. The demvcretic side
of the senate denounce the meas.
ure in the strongest possible terms
and declare that they will do oil in
their power to defeat the measure
however just Dakots's claims may
be. Dakota as state would blast
the one darling hope of the demo.
Gratis, viz: TO get all unnuestion-
able control of the senate. Ii is
our opinion, considering The situa-
tion in the senate, that Dakata will
not be admitted during the pending
session. State or no state, Dakota
will continue to bring forth an
abundant quantity of No. hard.
Democratic senators may succeed
in preventing it from donning the
robes of statehood for season but
they cannot deprive it of its ability
to produce more wheat to the
square foot than any other state or
territory in the union.
Jamestown alert. [volume] (Jamestown, Stutsman County, D.T. [N.D.]) 1878-1882, 1881-11-11

The question of division has been
raised in Washington and indica.
tions point strongly towards a sue
cessful consummation of the long
agitated scheme.
The presidents message will soon
be out, and it is rumored that Il
portion of it is devoted to the Da-
kota admission scheme, which the
president favors.
The star route cases arc com.
manding the attention Of Attorney
Cook and Prosecuting Attorney
Corkhill, who arc apparently in IA:
vor of bringing the ''routers.' to
justice that the wrath Of Uaclc
Sam may be appoasel.
Dakota has heard FROM almost
every congressman and senator,
democrat or republican, on the
question of Dakota 3 admission cx-
cept from Pettigrew. We presume
he will shape up in. time to hear
the senatorial roll. call, however.
It is about time the Northern
Pacific folks began to wake up.
The Milwaukee road has already
began to cut on rates from Chicago
to points below on the James river
and unless something is done by
the Northern. Pacific in the way of
cheap freight rates it will lose the
lower river trade entirely.
The general condition of the soil
for crops next season, is far better
than it has ever been any year here
tofore. No time since the opening
up of agricultural pursuits in Stuts.
man county has there been more
favorable fall for blowing and pre-.
pairing the soil for crops. With fa-
vorable spring Stutsman county
will take the lead in crops next sea.
son.
We publish to-day as complete a
statement as possible Of the i'm
provements of Jamestown, during
the past year. It may be possible
that we have unintcntionally slight.
ed some one, and if so, we would be
much oblighed to such parties if
they would made the fact known to
US, that We may make such correc-
tions rs is necessary to make the eff.
frot complete.
A vigorous e1Fert has just been
made by the Mitchell land ring to
oust Mr.. Letcher from the govern
ment land office at that place. 1t
will be remembered that Letcher
is an old friend and relative of
President Garfield, ana was ap.
pointed agent at Mitchell in the
early part of Mr.. Garfield's admin.
Thus far the ring have
not met with any encouragement.

show what has actually been done We give

The Result.

As the Alert predicted last evening he
fore the time for closing the polls arrived,
the straight ticket came out victorious.
The day passed off in a most agreeble
manner, nothing save a free fight or two
occurring to disturbe the equanimity of
the two opposing factions. The princi-
pal fight was on the county commissioner
ship, for which Office Mr.. johnson G.
Nickcus was the regular candidate, and
Mr.. J. J. Lcisch independent. The court
house bond deal met with little opposition
it being generally regarded by the citizens
of the county that new court house was
almost necessity. The old one is not
only inadequate to the demands of the
county, hut is located in such an obscure
portion of the village that it is not easy to
find, At the time it was erected, how=
ever, It's location was considered very
conspicuous one. Therefore no blame
should be attached to its founders on that
account. We give below as complete q

From Nsyia Scotia.

A friend in Truro has received long
letter from Mr.. VIM. Gcldert, of James,
town, and we are allowed to make the
following extracts thcrefrom:-
"At Bismark, Dakota, grizzly bears are
sometimes introduced into houses as play
things, and they become quite tame and
gentle. What fine opportunity this
would bic for the Truro man, who wants
to meet and kill "bar!" Buffalo calves
a year old also stroll around, as pets, and
the keen sportsman can be satisfied on
every side. Wild geese by hundreds can
be seen from the rapidly passing train
feeding in the wheat and corn-felds
They are but little disturbed by the noise
of the train. Wild duck everywhere fill
the lakes and ponds, and often are shot by
passengers from the train. Prairie chick
ems are everywhere, and badgers, jack
