lie says iii any event that if ne is
subject to removal by order such or
der must come from the head of the
department to which it is properly
subordinate. Referring to the deci-
sion Of Judge Edgerton, declaring the
capital commission act unconstitution-
al, Teller says: GAS sworn officer OF
the government recognize peculiar
obligation to regard not only the let
ter but the opinion of the law, and as
this decision is the law until reversed
bya court of competent jurisdiction,
!, cannot consent to be party to any
act which will appear to disregard ii. !"
He therefore declines to obey the or
der, and wishes to be understood as
having no interest in this con-
troyersy. The books of the auditors
office were taken to Yankton by order
Of the governor. Judge Edgerton be-
ing absent no injunction proceedings
could be instituted.
What Governor Ordway can gain
by thus attempting to override the
decision of court is, to say the
least, difficult to determine, unless he
imagines that by one stupendous ex-
ercise of cheek he can oyerawe the en-
tire judiciary of the country. This
can hardly be accomplished by one
poor mortal, especially by such an
unpopular mortal as Ordway, and i'll
the meantime he lays himself open to
punishment for contempt of court.
Ordway has carried things with a
high hand quite long enough, too long
for the honor and welfare of Dakota,
and if Judge Edgerton's decision had
no other effect it should be thrice well
coined because thwarting pet scheme
of tins executive cormorant. But there
is every reason to believe that Judge
Edgerton will be sustained by The
higher court and the locating of the
capital forever removed from the per-
sons who have bartered it for person
al gain.

The agitation caused by the Himsy

has resulted in a visit to Washington
by the manufacturer, who is anxious
to make peace with the post office de-
partment on the subiectl 1t is said
that an attempt will be made to show
that different paper than was con-

ders the printing difficult. The post
Office department. has received letters
from postfhasterS III all sections Of the
country stating that the notes are a
failure, and that nobody seems to de-
sire them, except curiosity hunters.
The impression prevails that unless
better work is guaranteed the present
contract will be annulled, and propos-

Two packages of mutilated money
were received at the Redemption BIZ
reau of the treasury department on
Sept. 10. One package contained
what was said To be $3.50. 1t came
from Montana. Two brothers were
engaged in miniiig out there. One Of
them Saved money unknown to the
other, and deposited it In an old stove
for safe keeping Later s,s NJ his his brother
brought the stove into their cabin and
started afire in it. This was not dis
covered by the owner Of the money
until it was almost too late. The sec
ond package contained pieces of sey1
eral 800 bills. They were accidentally
dropped into some hay. A calf was
eating it. The calf was killed and
the money extracted. Both packages
will be made good, as enough remains
of the money to denote it's denomina-

TIE Franco-C Chinese war has fizzled
out, not because the French ministry

THOSE who propose opposing the
constitution because prohibitory
clause was not embodied therein OF
made supplementary thereto are max
ing sad mistake and doing far more
to make prohibition unpopular than
the most rabld of its opposers. The
people of Dakota are determined to
adopt the constitution and thus make
decided step towards securing state
hood. Any organization which oppo-
ses their will must therefore meet
with popular disfayor. Besides, what
more could be desired than that pe'
titlon signed by 5000 persons is suf-
fieient to compel the legislature to
submit the question to vote? Surely
that number can be easily obtained.
If not, then why should less than
thatnunlber wish I'd control the vast
majority. To a person Of moderate
views it would appear that the conyen-
tidn acted very fairly Id tile matter
and gave prohibition even better
chance than had it been made supple
mentary TO the constitution.

Too Hasty.

Yes, some people are too hasty. Now
a wealthy Chicago family charged SER
want girl with stealing diamond pin a
year or two ago and the Court sentenced
the culprit to three years in the Peniten-
tiary. But recently, in moving large
plate-glass mirror, that diamond pin was
found by a workman and handed to the
mistress of the house, who sat down
and wrung her hands and cried, and
asked: "What have I done2 ?"
Steps are being taken to release the

lines on her face and bitterness has en-
tered her soul. Yes, indeed, some peo-

HER PICTURE.

] see her now-the fairest thing
That ever Knocked mans picturing,
I picture her as one who drew
Aside lifes curtain and looked through
The mists of all life's mystery
AS from a wood to open sea.
The soft, wide eyes of wonderment
That trusting looked you through and
through
The sweet, arched mouth, bow new bent,
That sent loves arrow swift and true.
That sweet arched mouth The Orient
Hath not such pearls in all her stores
Not all her storied spice-set shores
Have fragrance such as it hath spent,
l picture her as one who knew
How rare is truth to be untrue
As one who knew the awful sign
Of death, of life, of the divine
Sweet pity, of all loves, all hates,
Beneath the iron-footed fates.
I picture her as seeking peace,
And olive leaves and vine-set land
While strife stood by on either hand,
And wrung her tears like rosaries
picture her in passing rhyme
As of, yet not part Of, these
A woman born above her time;
A woman waiting in her place,
With patient pity ON her face.
Her face, her earnest, baby face;
Her young face, so uncommon wise
The tender love-light in her eyes
Two stars of Heaven out Of place.
Two stars that sang as stars OF old
Their silent eloquence of song,
From skies of glory and Of gold.
Where God in purple passed along
That patient, baby face Of hers
That won a thousand worshipers
That silent, pleading face; among
Ten thousand faces just the one
I still shall love when all is done,
And life lies by, harp unstrung.
That face, like shining sheaves among
That face half hid, mid sheaves of gold
That face that never can grow old;
And yet has never been quite young.

ROMANCE OF LOS ANGELES

"Of all Don Antonio's graphic n9Ira-
tives of the olden times, none is more in
teresting than those which describe his
adventures during the days Of this con-
test. On one of the first approaches
made by the Americans to Los Angeles,
he went out with his little haphazard
company of men and boys to meet
them. He had but one cannon, a small
one. tied by ropes on a cart axle. He
had but one small ksg of powder which
was good for anything; all the rest was
bad would merely go off 'pouf, pouf,
the sonora said, and the ball would pop
down near the mouth of the cannon.
With this bad powder he fred his first
shots. The Americans laughed; this is
child's play, they said, and pushed on
closer. Then came good shot, with the
good powder, tearing into their ranks
and knocking them right and left; an
other. and another. Then the Ameri-
cans began to think, these are no pout
balls; and when a few more were killed,
they ran away and left their flag behind
them. And if they had only known it,
the Californians had only one more
charge left of the good powder, and the
next minute it would have been the Cali
fornians that would have had to run
away themselves, merrily laughed the
sonora as she told the tale.
'This captured flag, with important
papers, were intrusted TO Don Antonio
to carry to the Mexican head
quarters at Sonora. He set off with an
escort of soldiers, his horse decked with
silver trappings, his sword, pistols-all
of the finest; a proud beginning of
Journey destined to end in a different
fashion. 1t was in winter time; cold
rains were falling; by night he was
drenched to the skin, and stopped at
friendly Indians tent to change his
clothes. Hardly had he got them off
when the sound of horses hoofs was
heard. The Indian flung himself down,
put his ear to the ground and exclaimed,

clad only in his drawers and stockings,

which he climbed, and sat safe hidden
in the darkness among its branches lis

into the tent the precious papers and the
