forcement OF Constitutional Privileges.
Letter in the Gary Interstate
1t seems to be the tactics of the Petit
grew faction to send contesting dele
cations from every county that has In
structed against Pettigrew in order to
control the temporary organization of
the convention, and secure committee
on credentials that will reject all but
Pettigrew delegates. 1t is plain to any
disinterested person who has watched
the struggle SO far, that Pettigrew in.
tends to secure the nomination by in
timidatlon and frand, and against the
earnest protest of the majority of the
republican votes OF the territory,
as expressed at all The prima-
ries where the people have been afforded
an opportunity to express their choice.
Pettigrew may secure the nomination by
the low, cunning tricks known only to
the bloody sixth ward of New York;
tricks that would cause the blush of
shame to mantle the cheeck of the vilest
Pot-house hummer when Tweed, McCan-
nard or Cardoza held supreme control in
the city of New York.
The people have certain rights guar.
anteed by the constitution of the United
states, among which is the fundamen-
tai principle that all questions affecting
the rights of the people shall be
decided at the ballot by majority of
the legal voters Of the nation, state or
precinct to be effected thereby, and
Thomas Jefferson says that from that
tribunal there is no appeal but to the
sword"
1t seems to be the end and aim of the
Pettigrew-postmasters to defraud the
people out of their right to vote for the
man of their choice, aud by cheating and
fraud nominate an unworthy man and
then crack the party lash to whip
them into the traces. 1t is time
that the people rise in their might and
give these dirty politicians to under
stand that the people rule. Let there
be peoples call, and let the people call
the Hon. Geo. H. Hand fol standard
bearer and he will lead them forward to
victory. Let such call be made and 1t
will spread over this vast territory like a
prairie fire before Dakota zephyr. Let
the call be made and it will find re-
sponse that will make the McCoy-Cam.

Salem (McCook county, telegram,
25th: The engineers OF the Chicago &
Northwestern railway company, who are
surveying the proposed line from Huron
to Calliope, crossed the track of the Chi
cago, st. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha
railway company at this place to-day.
Engineer Raymond was as mum as an
oyster, and not word of information
could be gotten out of him. In reply to
the question, are you surveying for a
north and SOUTH railway, he said, don't
know. 1t is thought that dirt will be
flying along the survey inside of thirty
days. With the prospect of another
line of railway into Salem, real estate in
and around the city has gone away up
in price. 1t is rumored here to-day that
the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul and
Northwestern companies have compro.
missed, and that the Northwestern has
agreed to lun their survey through the
town of Parker, on the main line of the
Milwaukee southeast of Salem. The
survey passes three miles west of How
ard, which is located twenty-five miles
northwest of Salem, and the present
terminus OF the Southern Minnesota.

The orderly behavior and general bear

everything would be over IN few days,
