North Dakota Protests.

Residents of North Dakota assembled
in convention in Fargo for the purpose
OF protesting against the doings of the
convention now in session at Sioux
Falls. 4. goodly representation was
present. and the proceedings were char
acterized by great earnestness. The
following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The convention now in session at
Sioux Falls, Oak, and representing only that
portion lying south of the 46th parallel, has as
sumed to act for the people of the territory in
the preamble Of its constitution as published in
associated press dispatches, and
Whereas, The convention at Sioux Falls has
ignored the rights Of the residents If north
Dakota, who represent more than half the en-
tire aggregate wealth Of the entire territory;
therefore
Resolved, That We earnestly protest against
this attempt on the part Of the people Of south
Dakota, as represented in the Sioux Falls con-
vention, TO appropriate the name Dakota, our
common heritage. The productions of that
portion of Dakota lying north of the 46 paral-
lei have made the name Dakota famous and
given q commercial value and prestige of
which we should not aud cannot be deprived
Resolved, That we further protest against
The admission Of south Dakota under a consti-
tuition making no provision for the assumption
OF an equitable proportion OF the present terri
torial debt by the people of south Dakota, and
We further strongly protest against tie admis-
sion OF The territory as q whole, under the con-
stiu adopted or to be adopted at Sioux
Falls or elsewhere in which the people Of the
entire territory must be admitted as a whole
we demand voice in the preparation of or
ganized law, and will oppose any movement
leading toward statehood which deprives us OF
the privilege OF asserting or dissenting to the
constitutional provisions.

CYNICs have said many hard things
about the marriage state and what those
who find themselves united in matri-
mony can say or do to make each other
miserable. But it was left to an Ohio
woman, the wife of candidate, to JUS
tify the most of these cynics. She is
cutting out and FASTING in a scrap-book
all the notices of her husband that have
appeared since his nomination. She is
thus armed with weapons of offense in
domestic controversy that are positive
ly appalling.

Roach's Reasoning.

John Roach, the ship builder, testi-
fled before the Senate subcommittee
on education and labor few days ago.
He believed in protection to labor i'm
order to develop the resources of this
country, and claimed that without pro-
lection no industry except farming and
mining could be carried on. Foreign
capitalists want control of the Ameri-
can markets The interest of the work
ingmen ia this country are neglected
by those who ought to guard them
Great Britain had subsidized her ship
builders and placed them in n position
where there could be no opposition,

The man who sees snakes has just
been heard from in Sbawaugunk, N. Y.
Richard Decker, farmer of that place,
the other day killed a black snake nearly
six feet in length, But the wonderful
feature about the reptile was the pres
ence OF two well-formed legs with feet
attached at point about fifteen inches
from the tail. The legs were elastic,
homeless, and of pink color. The feet
were small, dark in color, and hoof-like
in shape. Each foot had sixty-three
small, white, horny claws. The reptile
has been sent TO the National Museum
at Washington.

The columns OF paper are the publish
err stock in trade, and the parties who ask
to use them for their special benefit must
expect to pay for the same. Every public
spirited citizen of place should have a
pride in seeing his town and surroundings
improve; every new house, every new road,
every new manufacturing establishment
erected, every new business opened enhanc-
es the value of property in our midass.
Every rejecting mind knows this to be
true, and IL should not be forgotten that
the local newspaper adds much to the gen.
eral wealth and prosperity of the place, 81
well as increases the reputation of the
town abroad. 1t benefits eli who have bus
mess in the place; enhances the value of
property besides being desirable public
convenience, even If not conducted i'm the
interests of either political power. 1t in
creascs trade, it cautions against imposi-
tior, j. saves you from loss, IL warns you
from danger, it points out different advan-
tages, and increases your profits The local
press is the power that moves the people !;
therefore support it by advertising in il
literally, subscribing for it and paying it.

NOTES OF THE DAY.

IT is very gratifying to note that many

of the people of that section are very
commendable.

 In lSi9, while enroute to the gold fields of California with several thou sand sheep. We were attacked oy Apaches at Casas Grandes, where We were sur prised by several thousand Apaches under Chief Mangus Colorado, while crossing the stream. The battle ragged al day. The men made a heroic de- fense, but as the small company of white men were on either side of the stream when the attack was made, they were alF cut down by their merciless foe, except Mr Moore, who when he dis covered that all his comrades were slsiD, hid himself in the stream for several hours, during which time he could hear ALlC nttF aAlt fA4C1 uA lAn GAANLllEH HtE h4llk his life. During the night he made his escape, and for two months he wan dered amid the canyons and deserts of Arizona and the unknown southwest. His sufferngs during those two months were almost incredible. His food con- sisted principally Of mescal, snd, sur rounded by wild animals, an unknown country, and, worse than all, the bloody Apaches, his escape seemed almost mir aculous. His only weapon, saved from the battle, was a saber, which was after wards broken while defending himself from a bear, which attacked hlm in 6 tree top.
