Pettigrew for Ordway.

Governor Howard was one of Gods
noblemen. His hair was white with the
snow OF years, but his head was clear,
and his heart as warm as ever beat in q
manly breast. When there was no pub
lie funds to meet the necessities of q
pressing territorial charity he poured
out several thousand dollars from his
own purse. George 81. Hand was his
hearty friend. r. Frank Pettigrew was
his bitter enemy. And because Hand
was the friend of Howard, Pettigrew was
the enemy of Hand. Two years ago last
April Governor Howard went to the tri-
umphant rest to which his spotless life
entitled him, and the territory, with
spontaneous and almost unanimous voice,
petitioned the president to make Geo. a.
Hand his successor as governor. Every
organized county sent in its petition, in

Those Peculiar Tactics.


A clear illustration of the tactics of
the Pettigrew faction in the territory
was observed at the county convention
held in this place last Saturday. 1t was
only a repetition OF what has been going
on all over the territory and what may
be expected from now until the conven-
tion at Grand Forks. The plan is to OBJ
tain control of every county convention
by resorting to any and all despicable
Misunderstanding in which, the last re.
sort is to bolt and break up the regular
conventione, if possible, and to then get
up contestlng delegation. The policy
being pursued by Pettlgrew and his
strikers is disgusting every respectable
and intelligent voter, and is opening the
eyes of q great many as to the desperate
plans being resorted to by Pettigrew to
defeat the nomination of Hon. Geo. II.
Hand who is the honest choice Of two.
thirds of the people of the territory.
Heretofore we have refrained from crit.
cising Mr.. Pettigrew and have confined
ourselves simply to advocating Mr..
Hands claims, but after careful obser-
walton of Mr.. Pettigrew's contemplate
tactics we can no longer desist from de-
nouncing in unmeasured terms the mob
style and illegitimate manner in which
he is conducting his campaign.

What 1t was Composed of During Its
Worst" Days.
Flandrau Enterprise.
The more respectable of the Pettigrew
papers have only one charge to make
against Mr.. Hand, and that is that he
belongs to the Yankton ring. The SIM
pie fact is that the so-called Yankton
ring is nothing more nor less than the
appointed officers of Dakota. Those of
them who reside in Yankton do so, tor
the most part, because that is the capi-
tai of Dakota. They change from time
to time as their terms of office expire,
and new men are appointed to their
places. As might be expected they vary
in character from good to bad. Under
their management of the financial affairs
of the territory, it is in financial condi
ton that Mr.. Pettigrew himself is
Obliged to boast of-not warrant out.
standing against the territory, and a
goodly balance in the treasury. At the
time the "ring" was, according to Mr.
Pettlgrew, at its worst, its head and
front was the lamented Gov. Howard, 8
man who had made for himself in con
gress y national reputation and was uni.
yersally recognized as one of the
purest and most honorable men in the
United States. Unfortunately for Dako
ia, Governor Howard died. and it is mo-
improbable that the prosecutions of Mr.
Pettigrew contributed to hasten his de
mise which has resulted disastrously 70

only deprived us of governor of th,
highest character, but it made room TO
