Col. Leunsbsrry interviewed.

| While Col. Lounsberry, Of the Bismarck
Tribune, was in Minneapolis on his tvay
home from Washington, he was inter.
viewed by q Tribune reporter, and his
replies to some Of the more important
questions were as follows:
NEW LAND DISTRICTS.
K-What OF the bills for the new land
district in Dakotap I
1.-The friends Of the measures are
hopeful they Will Pass, although the com-
missioner OF the general land Office refuses
70 recommend the passage OF these bills
he admits that there is business enough
to justify the Creation Of the, new dis
tricts, but says it will add to tile work Of
his office, and as the force at his disposal
IS absolutely inadequate to do the present
work he cannot consistently recommend
Dill that will increase that work The
bill for the new Office at jamestown, how
ever, will be recommended by the COM
mites. AS to the others am not tin-
formed
THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.
R.-What of the raid on the North
Pacific
L.-Blackmail and revenge rather than
a high regard for the interests of the
government seem to be at the bottom OF
it. Intense hatred of Schurz also appears
to be an element in the contest. Col.
Finley is on deck in connection with it,
but if there is barrel in the ease it is an
empty one that will look badly before it
will be filled with North Pacific dollars.
There is no uneasiness on the part Of tho
Northern Pacific people.
THE CAPITAL.
RIFF the territory is divided where
will the capital be located
1.-The capital will he located by the
Governor in the first instance, subject to
the action Of the Legislature The loca-
ton Of the capital will depend upon who
is Governor, and the chances are about
even between Fargo, jamestown and Bis
marck. Fargo is most central now as to
Jamestown will be central
when its prospective roads are completed,
but two wears hence, when the country
along the Missouri river and west and
north of Bismarck is settled, none will
question the propricty of its location af
that point Bismarck Is within forty
miles of the geographical center Of the
territory at the North Pacific crossing Of
the Missouri river and is certain to be>
como city similar to Kansas City.
THE GOvERNORsHIP.
R.-Who is likely to be the Governor Of
North Dakotai
L.-No idea can be given. Mr. Kirk
woods friends have urged him to be
ike to accept after having been senator
md cabinet officer. But it will be urged
hat his experience will be of such great
yaluc to the new territory that, like Gov.
Howard, he may conclude to make per-
onal sacrifice, and accept position he
lOes not want
R-Then you do not expect the ap-
,ointment to be made from Dakota
L.-No, sir Mr.. Arthur will follow
he custom of his predecessors, and ap-
ooint officers for the leading positions in
he territory to please himself or the lead
ng republican senators.

The Eniiini;c Church.

The committee Of the Catbolid church
who has the building of tho new church
IN charge are moving III the matter.
Father Calvin has prepared a sketch OF a
h,ulding to be erected, but the plans have
not vet been drawn The society needs
church and as if must he built sooner or
later. they are showing good Judgment in
making the preliminary arrangements for
it. 1t has been suggested that the block
owned hy the society bo mortgagcd and
in tha, way raise funds TO aid IN erecting
the building. The bishop will probably
visit Jamestown soon and then matters
can most likely be arranged so as to re-
suit in the society having an edificc com
mensuratc with their numbers and credit
to our town,

tion Of Edward Ivcrson, Mildred Roscoe,

the other had acted, and the public told
the commissioners what they thought
Of the way the commissioners had done
business. SO at present there is genera
understanding throughout the county.
