HoN. J. P. kIDpER, Judge of the
4th Judicial District, was in town
Monday between trains, OH his way
to Swan Lake, Turner county, to
hold a tcrnl of court. The Judge
has been continuously holding courts
since last February. and is perhaps
the hardest worked man in Dakota
The district is entirely too large and
the business is increasing. " lille
the Judge is not l.,osing much If his
usual rotunditv, it is too much to
require him t" do the work OF at
least two men and we hope that
something will be done to relieve
him Of part of his work on the bench.
The only way however that such
a thing can be done, is 10y congress
passing the division or admission
bill, or both.

The "Cnterr;fed" Terrified.

There was democratic conven-
ti"n at the court house in this city
on last Saturday. 1t was for the
purpose uf electing delegates to the
democratic territorial convention at
Mitchell this week. One familiar
with the overwhelming majority of
republicans over democrats in the
territory, would naturally conclude
that there would be about as much
excitement ut one Of these demo-
cratic conventions as there would be
at funeral. But alas! there is an
element that generally enters into a
democratic convention that is not
altogether peaceful and lamb-like.
Such an element was present at the
convention on last Saturday. At
the appointed hour for converting a
city delegate, fully equipped with
all the elements of democracy,
marched into the court house and
proceeded t' take a hasty review of
his unwashed brothers present.
His off optic happened to light upon
the sneaking and dirty looking coun-
tenance of Z. wash. kellogg, former
ly OF this county but now of Iowa.
1t Immediately occurred to the c. d.
that z. wash. had no business mon
keving around a democratic conven-
ton in Dakota, and he proceeded to
tell him SO in such language, which
if we should attempt to repeat here,
would use up all the 2 and 3 EN-
dashes in our office. Finding that
wind would not move the ilIustrious
&. wash, the excited C. d., with
wild and terrible war-whoop, rushed
upon the covering sneak, and the
scene that ensued beggars descrip.
ton. The recent Canton conven-
ton was no where compared to it.
After tie city marshal had gathered
in the ohstreperous delegate an in
ventory of damage to inaninate
things in the room showed up two
hanging lamps mashed into smith
Greens and several chairs entirely
demolished. The irate C. d. was
locked up in the cooler until even
ing when he was brought before
Justice Smythe and fined for disor-
derly conduct. The convention f.
naily got down t" business and
peaceably and quietly elected dele
gates to the Mitchell convention and
Instructed them for Hon. +. w.
Miller, of Douglas county, al
though the Introductory scenes rath-
er knocked the wind out of the fun
ny effect of Sleafe's interview in the
C5yote-there was a conspicuous
absence of hilarity over that little
episode.

We had the pleasure of meeting
Mr.. Cook, of Grand Banc, Mich, all
old friend of Johny Reid, the ether
day. Mr.. Cook was out in search
of his father, who hal left home
some two or three weeks ago very
suddenly, and without any appar-
ent reason, and had not returned or
given any intilnation Of his wherea-
bouts. The old gentleman has been
in poor health the past summer, MIR.
Cook says. and he thinks he has be-
come deranged, which he assigns as
a reason for leaving home. He got
track Of him at St. Joe. Mo, and
learned that he had left there for
Sioux City, which brought him up
this way. He failed to find his
father at Sioux City, but thinks he
is up in this country somewheres.
