The Philadelphia Record is decidedly
of the opinion that if the south half of
Dakota can sustain its claim to sufficient
population it should be made state. A
suspicion that We are deficient in popu.
lation seems an absurdity out here, but
we have to take into account the fact
that the far east is not we'll posted re-
garding Dakota. While we are certain
Of 25O,00O people the east is by no means
certain that We have 10000. There is no
way to prove our claim, excepting
through the coming constitutional con-
vention election. A full vote will furnish
something tangible upon which to base
an estimate. Unfortunately this election
is to be hold in the midst of the small
grain harvest, when it is exceedingly
difficult to induce farmers to leave their
work to 90 to the polls. To overcome, 80
far as is possible, this difficulty it is
earnestly urged that the country voting
precincts be made small and that convey.
ances be provided to carry the farmers
to and from the polls. Everything de.
pends upon q full vote. The Huron
convention made mistake when it fixed
the date of the election, because it did
not take into account the fact that this
years harvest will be ten days or two
weeks later than usual. But tho effect
of this error can be neutralized by
earnest, vigorous work.

Reports published in the st. Paul

crop in the Red river valley is in a pre-
carious condition. The situation is so m.
med up at follows:
The interest in the crop and weather
outlook wakes daily. With reference to
the Red river valley, the interest takes
the form of anxiety, not by any means
aliayed by the reports of rain in that
region within the last few days. Advicee
as to the extent and abundance of these
rains are conflicting. The personal
equation enters so largely into the indi.
vidual judgments of which the general
opinion is made up that its conclusions
are not to be accepted with absolute con.
tidence. The sanguine opinion enter
tanned at the railroad offices Yesterday
and the day before, do not agree with
the reports OF persons with large sources
OF information, interviewed by tho
Pioneer Press. The gist of large mum.
Der of statements of this sort is that the
drought has been severe and the rains
were local and insufficient.

The plan of the Bismarck capital
building has been adopted and it is an.
nounced that the structure will cost
100000. This means that it will cost
not less than 81, 900, 900 and that biennial
appropriations to complete the work will
hereafter be in order. It is not improba-
BILE that the next legislature will be call
ed upon for quarter Of million or 30,
even should the quo searranto case yet be
hanging in the courts. In this invest
ment the southern half of Dakota has
not particle of interest, yet, should the
statehood movement fail, it will be called
upon to bear its share of expenditures
for the purpose of carrying out the cor
rupt designs of a legislative syndicate.

Out of the work of the last legislature
jamestown is striving to extract grain
or two of comfort, but has thus far not
succeeded. It recognizes the fact that
$4,000 bonds were authorized, to pur-
chase quarter section of land and put
up an insane asylum at or near James
town, but holds that under the law the
building must 60 80 far from the city as
to be practically useless. The Alert
gives expression to the following as its
opinion of the scheme:

men had been to put the asylum out of
sight from jamestown, and to invest the
appropriation in real estate as an endow-
ment fund for the insane, more effective
plan could hardly have been devised, for
it would probably require half the ap.
preparation to purchase the stipulated
amount of land at the extreme limit of
distance from the court house. The
proper policy of the commissioners
would seem to be to buy section OF land
with the appropriation upon some of the
bluffs adjoining the city, and hire q
Montana cowboy to herd the lunatice
upon it until sane legislature shall be
elected and provide for the erection of q
suitable building.
The Alert further states that the
five commissioners appointed
to manage the affairs

Attention has been directed in pre-.
vious issue to the passage Of a bill by
the last legislature which exempts from
taxation the landed possession of rail-
road corporations within the territory of
Dakota. This measure was put through
by the deceitful practices of combina.
ton, and Its leaders were tie leaders in
the capital commission monstrosity.
Some of those who voted for the measure
were the dupes of the combination.
Others were in the secret and went de.
hberately aboat the work of robbing the
people of their just income. This
lesson should convince all Da-
kota of the necessity of secur.
ing larger legislatures, which can
be accomplished only through condi-
tion of statehood. Because we had a
small legislature the revenues have been
deprived of enough to maintain state
government and the most afflnent class
of people in our midst are relieved from
their share of the public burden. Under
present conditions seven men "a majority
in the upper house) can dictate tho
course OF an entire legislature, if the
governor is with them. Eight men can
doit without the governor. The results
OF the past prove conclusively that this
is dangerous state of affairs, as it is not
difficult to find seven bad men and one
bad governor. The way to relief is
plain. Adopt the state constitution with
. will and q unanimity which will con.
vince the corrupt that the foot of the
people is upon their necks.

trustees and for the construction and
maintenance of the asylum. There is
not word of authority in the laws Of

the movement doubtless intended to
pass an act covering this ground and it
was supposed that they had done so.

Daughters History."hy Barrett Sylvester.
This story is a very interesting one and is
written in one of the most pleasing veins
Of the noted author. From the opening
to theclosing the attention is concentrated
on the welfare of the heroine, Miss Nellie
Remington. who, from a desire 10 procure
to her parents their lost property, marries
a wealthy mill owners son after an ac-
q~uaintance of a few weeks; and he, to graf
ify his wife's every wish commits embez
element and is cast into prison.
The pure and constant love of Bessie
Boyd, the farmers daughter. for her aft
anced, the village doctor, is strongly por
trayed and the sequel shows that she was
fully justified in this absorbing love. The
character of DR.. Bishop is .inely drawn
showing that a physician has a heart in
his work instead Of it all being for thu Clio
~ of his profession.
1t is unnecessary to call attention to
= more of the prominent characters in this
column, as the story must he read to be
appreciated.
