Aprivate letter from the north outlines
the probable policy of Dakota's piratical
governor in connection with the state
hood movement. HIS plan is said to be
the organization Of a constitutional con-
vention for the whole of Dakota. which
will formulate constitution and sub.
init it to congress. Think Of this, Da.
kotaians! A constitution prepared under
the dictation Of Ordway! 1t would be
savory instrument. 1t il not doubted
but that lie can pick up
enough subservient followers to consti.
tute gathering in his interest. His
appointees alone (who are most of them
his willing tools) would make conven-
tion of considerable proportions. The
alleged scheme is purely a political
dodge to divide and distract public senti.
ment, as Orduay does not want Dakota
admitted. either as one state or two
states, because such admission would
relegate him to private life and nip IN
the bud many promising enterprises.
His real motive is to. induce
congress to believe that the people of
Dakota are broken up into factions and
are not of one mind upon this important
issue. 81
We know from past expressions on
their part that the people of the north,
outside the headquarters of the ring,
would have no sympathy with such q
movement. They are as earnestly in
favor of division as are the people
of the south. But they are liable
to have their wishes thwarted
and their desires misrepresented by the
cunning of those who are now endeavor.
ing to place the rope about their necks
and drag them into the corrupt combi.
nation which had its inception in the in
cubation of the capital scheme. The
newspapers of Grand Forks, of Fargo
with the exception of the paid organ OF
the syndicate) and Of jamestown have
been giving honest expression to the
voice of the people and it is their pro.
vince to unite against the ringsters IN
behalf of the rights of north Dakota
Unfortunately for the north this corrupt
combination has its local habitation il
their midst and for this reason eterna
vigilance is one OF the necessities o
the hour. The banner of division shoul,
be nailed to the mast and defiance t,
this gang of manipulators inscribed upo,
its folds. The voice of the people is all
powerful. Let it sound the doom o
Ordwsyism in this fair land.

For some time past, number Of the
Dakota papers have frequently referred
to the late law passed by the territorial
legislature relative to the exemption Of
railroads from taxation. The papers
have claimed that the law was unjust to
the people, and practically the roads
were exempted altogether from taxation.
Col. Clough, counsel for the Northern
Pacific, stated yesterday that this was
altogether an erroneous impression, aud
that publicity was given the matter only
to poison the public's mind against the
railroads. The law in question, Mr..
ClonRh further stated. was, with few ex-
ceptions, transcript Of the Minnesota
law. which has given much sstisfaction

THE RAILROAD OPERATORS.

Some of them Obey the Order to Strike and
Others do Not.
Chicago. Aug. cit is very difficult to
get any exact or definite information, and
very easy to'get any amount of rumor
relative to the long threatened strike of
railroad telegraph operators. Careful
inquiry at the general offices in this city
fails to bring to light single case in
which an operator left his key today in
any railroad Office in this city or vicinity,
and though it was very definitely under
stood Sunday night that the operators
on the Wabash and tho Chicago and
Alton would be called out at noon to-day,
the fact that not man hereabouts left
his instrument gives color to the general
belief that the strike was not actually
ordered for that time, or if ordered Il
was countermanded. It is now surmised
the order for to-day was not to strike to.
day, but to continue to do railroad busi.
ness as usual, merely refusing business
for the Western Union, with the under.
standing that if the companies insisted
on sending commercial business, or dis
charged any operators for refus-
ing. It is thought the strike will
actually begin tomorrow noon.
This seems to tally with the dispatch
from st. Louis. 1t is now said the bill
Of grievances presented to the Chicago
and Alton has met with recognition BY
that road to the extent of notice to the
committee that men who have grievances
should apply Individually to their divi.
sion superintendent, and the brother
hood profess to have information to the
effect that the division superintendents
have been instructed to lend kindly
ear to such complaints.
Railway officials are reticent as to
whether or not they had received bill
of grievances, but are unanimous in saw.
ing that they ale prepared for the worst
their operators can do, and say they have
positive assurances that very few OF their
men will obey the brotherhood in case a
strike is ordered. Brotherhood men pro-
fess to believe that the Northwestern
road is inclined to yield to the demands,
and that there is feeling among the
strikers to not hurry matters in that
quarter. The strikers here admit that
there was hitch somewhere in carrying
out the intention of the executive com.
mittee relative to the railroad operators

secret orders Of the brotherhood are con.

railroad law Of Dakota exempts from
taxation the lands and townsites Of rail-
road companies. His reference to the
Minnesota law will not improve his side
OF the case. It il we'll known fact that
this law is all on the side OF the railroads
and against the rights Of the people. So

The people Of Hyde county. despair
ing OF any help from the governor to
organize their county, have called con-
vention to nominate officers whom they
propose to elect and call on the Sioux
Falls constitutional convention to ratify
the proceeding. Why don't other coun-
ties follow suit Fletcher Blade.
Under pressure from Washington,
Hyde county has just been organized
This opens up new recourse. Coun.
ties entitled to organization can secure
what is due them by sending petitions
to the secretary of the interior. He is
the individual who can bring Ordway to
time and he does not ask for a share in
the townsite of county seat.

A Milwaukee telegram denies the pub.
lished statement that southern Dakota
is to be made separate Catholic diocese
with Rev. Father Willard, of Yankton,
as bishop. The telegram says further:
The matter Of creating new diocese
in the section named may possibly be
brought up for discussion at the council
OF American archbishops at Rome in
November next, but there is no possibil-
ity that, even if it is decided upon, the
erection of the diocese will occur fol
three years to come.
If Father Wizards candidacy wins
him the position the delay can be endured
with patience. He is the true type of az
able. efficient, christian gentleman, ani
this sentiment will be endorsed by all
who know him without regard to sect o.
creed.
