Bismarck Tribune: While the terrific.
rial committee we're at work on the new
apportionment, Q dispute arose as to the
influx Of settlers into Pembina county.
Jud LaMoure was sanguine that the
county had more than doubled in popu-
lation since the last election, and there
fore asked for twelve delegates. One of
the committee doubted the statement,
whereupon Mr.. LaMoure wagered $40
that Pembina would cast 1900 republi-
can votes this fall. The bet was covered
by Mr.. Flagg, and the stakes held by
Mr.. Wildt.

Dakota Republican: The Grand Forks
Plaindealer, leading newspaper of
northern Dakota says: "Pembina will
answer for the name Of the new territory.
It Is better than north Dakota anyway"
We are glad to see our northern neigh
bors taking this sensible view Of the case.
With the name Pembina the northern
portion of the territory acquires an in.
dividuality that it would not obtain as
north Dakota. Pembina is the name by
which large portion of north Dakota
was known at the organization of Dakota
territory, and it is equally applicable to
the proposed enlarged boundaries.

Washington Critic: Senator Vest OBJ
jects to the admission of the territory of
Dakota as state, because one of its
counties, Yankton, has attempted to re-
pudiate debt. The senator from Mis-
souri, might state how many counties in
that state have attempted to repudiate;
how many have been compelled BY the
United States courts to settles with their
creditors, and in how many the United
States have been compelled to appoint
United States marshais to collect the
taxes needed to pay Judgments. the
county officials refusing to obey the
mandates of the courts. The senate
would then understand the reasons fol-
his opposition to the admission Of Da-
kOta.
