The Valley City Times gives US warn.
ing to once more bend the knee to the
autocrats of the north. 1t says:
The southern Dakota politicians have
heretofore tested the metal of the
boomers from north Dakota, and know
that there is here an element of unani.
nifty that is difficult to swerve. We feel
certain that whatever may be the result
OF the Huron convention the northern
delegates will not be hoodwinked by apy
sophistry or taffy on the part of the
southern statesmen. The tower of
strength erected at Grand Forks remains
intact. and before that power is overcome,
We hope to see north Dakota more solid,
if possible, than now. She knows her
strength, her rl4hts, and "knowing, dare
maintain"
Notwithstanding oil these prerogatives
the north will be kindly yet firmly in.
vited to stay out of the Huron conven,
tion. 1t will be an unwise act for its
representatives to throw match into the
Huron magazine.

1t is reported that after careful inves.

they have come to the conclusion that
the legislature and governor have per.

cation of county seats, which is delega.

the council.-Faryo Argus.

The Spring CT 1864 Eepssts Itself.

speets TO the spring Of 1861. In 1861 it
cleared up tie last Of January and the
month OF February AID two weeks of Marci:
were in all respects like the month of March
1853, thus far. Six weeks of beautiful
weather at that time smiled upon the earth,
without rain. Farmers finished seeding,
the roads presented hard and dusty sur
face, vegetation advanced rapidly, and abaat
the middle of March it commenced raining;
and for 1--WE weeks it came down steadily,
with scarcely any interval. The mud be-
came knee deep again, but the rains were
warm and grain and all kinds Of vegetation
grew without interruption and the crops
were never exceled for quantity and yield
If the grain crop of 1861 repeats itself in
