The Hon. Geoge 81. Hand, secretary of
the territory, who will retire from office as
his successor. Mr.. j. II. Teller, qualities,
has been resident OF this territory for
seventeen years, and is universally re-
garded as q Dak6taian in the best of
standing. Mr.. Hand came to Yankton
in 1865, and during the same year was
appointed United States district attor-
ney. This position he held for period
Of three years, afterward resuming the
practice of his profession. Four years
were spent in law Office, in company
with Colonel, now Judge, Moody, when
Mr.. Hand again entered the service 70
the government, accepting the office to
register OF the United States land Office at
Yankton, where he remained for two
years. Resigning the registership, Mr..
Hand became secretary OF the territory
eight years ago, and at the expiration Of
his first term was reappointed by the
president. ln the discharge of his Off
cial duties as secretary of the territory,
Mr.. Hand has displayed abilities of a
high order, and won for himself numer-
Gus influential friepds in all sections of
Dakota. Standing though he was upon
the threshold OF third term. his fitness
for the position and familiarity with its
duties, would in all likelihood have Sc
cured his retention in Office under other
circumstances. Mr.. Hand, how.
ever, was not an applicant
for reappointment again. and takes his
coming retirement with smiling COM
pOsure making way for tho addition fo
the. population and society of the terri
tory of so eminent gentleman as the
brother of the secretary of the interior
During the last canvas for the reppbli-
can nomination for delegate to congress
MIR. Hand was prominent candidate,
and developed positive strength which
will doubtless keep him i'll politics as a
leader. 1t is understood that MIR. Hand
on leaving the secretary's office, will
turn once more to his law books and
that L. will continue to reside in Yank-
ton, where his family and himself ar.
held in universal esteem.

II know where the capital of Dakota is to be
Of a good many things and who just came from
Yankton last evening. 1T will be placed about
forty miles north of Pierre. at the mouth of the
Cheyenne er."-Siour City Journal.
1t appears to be the policy of the syn.
dicate to put out little pointers like the
above to distract public attention and
create diversity of opinion regarding
its intentions. Already three or four
places have been limited at in this sort of
way. Our own belief is that the capi.
tal commission will select place for its
operations somewhere north of the
Northern Pacific railroad-a place much
more inaccessible than the present capi-
tai location. The scheme is entirely in
the coatrol of northern men and they are
men without care for public convenience
when it conflicts with the consummation
of their own ends. The majority in the
south has sold itself to the minority in
the north, and that minority, aided and
abetted by the governor, now has the
control of this matter.

There is printed in this issue com
munication upon the subject of official
corruption, which points out tersely, yet

self like leech upon the body polite.
Unless it is thwarted in its first efforts
it will increase in power and will become
an element of dire disaster to the COM
ing state. The syndicate already has in
its makeup q powerful corporation-the
Northern Pacific railroad company-and
it will seek to draw others into the com.
blnation. Once in the full possession OF
it's contemplated power, with band OF
territorial officials to do its bidding, it
will be in position to control the des-
tinies of this territory-to dictate its
politics aud to handle its money. AL
ready, in its inciplency, we have
seen it control legislature by means
most foul; and in securing such control
the supposed bulwa-k Of our eafety-the
granger element-was the first to yield
to its Establishments. The men who
live upon farms and till the soil for q
livelihood are the natural enemies of
corruption and of monopolies and il
they understand themselves they will
always cast their votes in opposition
thereto. Yet it is singular fact that
the first great step towards
power in Dakota of q
corrupt monopoly received strong sup
port from the representatives Of the ag-
ricultural classes. We make this poiat
for the purpose of showing how danger
GUS such combination is to the inter.
ests of the public and the future veal OF
Dakota. The granger representatives. in
the late legislature may be honest men
All that is known is that most of then,
yielded and yielded suddenly and unac

cate. We can all comprehend how mucl
more powerful this ring will be by th'
time the next legislature assemblies, if it
carries its first effort through to success
It will be possessed of unlimited means
derived from the sale of lands whicl
should belong to the commonwealth, ant

We find in Chicago Tribune editorial
strong endorsement of the proposition
for holding constitutional convention.
In an article giving advice to the people
Of Dakota III the present emergency, the
Tribune says:
What they want to do now is to go ahead and
organize state government, elect their mem
Der Of congress and two senators, as they can
settle among themselves, and then ask congress
to let them in. That's probably the shortest
way, and will involve the least trouble. 1t is
reason why Dakota should not do the same
thing. There are no political objections, and
certainly 80 far as the interests the people are
it. Dakota is bound to be the empire
