next census is taken, composed Of the
very best stock this country has TO
furnish. The bulk of the Dako.ans
are American citizens who have
changed their residences from one part
Of the country to another. They have
the right to representation In Congress,
and no party which denies them this
right need expect to get foothold on
the soil of Dakota. rhe people of Da-
kota should demand admission, not az
humble petitioners seeking great boon
but az American citizens who have the
right to representation in tho body that

population enough to entitls them to
two members Of Congress. All of the
Other new States were admitted when
they had barely sufficient for one mem

cannot be resisted by any Congress

The following article, from the La

commend it 20 Delegats Breuts:
We sucges. that our worthy Delegste

His prssen. bill provides for g new Con

doubtless be 3 very tedious process, and
may indefinitely delay our admission.
for what assurance have we that the
people would unqusii6ediy approve q
new Constitution. Al! coneede the i'm
portance of securing admission az a.
early date ss possible. With a Con-
stitution already adopted ve are at
once ready for admission as q State in
the Union aud participation in national
affairs. Oar present Constitution is an
able document and IL rs acceptable 10
the people today az when adopted four
years ago. Then why hesitate abou.
our admission under it. It's provisions
are wise and conservative, and the peo-
pie have certainly nothing TO fear from
| il. IL we attempt to improve uson 1t
by calling a new Convention the change

| that the people would refuse to ratify 1t.
If those who object to the provisions of
the present Constitution believe that
the people will ratify and approve any
sort of document in order To be admit
tod they labor under an egregious er-
ror. They must not discount the intel
ligelce OF the people by thinking tina. a
new Constitution will not be closely
scrutinized and voted down if unsatis-
factory. In such unhappy event 1t may
take years TO rally from the setback
and attempt another organization.
Hence We say TO Mr.. Brents that there
can be no valid objection to the present

grave responsibility upon himself tn
