Postmaster General Howe died Sun
day afternoon, very Unexpectedly, at
Kenosha, Wisconsin, where he was visit
ing nephew. Pnuemonia, induced by
a severe cold. was his ailment. The fol-
lowing is sketch of his public career:
- Timothy o. Howe was borne in .Livermore,
emic education he studied law and was admit
ted to the bar. He was member of the lcgis-
lature OF the state of Maine in 1915 in the latter
part of which year he removed to Wisconsin
where he was elected judge of the circnit and
supreme courts. He was elected 10 the United
States senate rs union republican to succeed
Charles Durkce, and took his scat in 1851; was
reelected to the senate in 1867 and in 1873. Dur
Jug these cighiccn ycnrs hc held important
committee positions, being ono of the most
body. His term of otiiro expired March 5, 1879.
The famous triangular contest, in which the
election of his successor was involved, and in
which Judge Howe, 4. w. keyes and Matt Car
penter were the participants, a contest which
finally resulted in the election of Carpenter,
will be recalled. Judge Howe then retired to
Green Bay, where he had made his home since
his removal, to this state. He was not permitted,
however, to remain long in r. tircmcnt, and WAS
rendered by President Garfield the appoint
ment as member of the board of commissioners
sent by the United States Ia represent this gov
crencnt 70 the international monetary congress
at Paris, his associates being Ex-senator Thur.
man sof Ohio, and VIM. NJ. Evarts of New
York. He remained abroad about six months.
Soon after his return he began to be .pron,i-
President Arthpr's cabinet. In December,
1881, he WAS rendered the postmaster-general-
ship, which he accepted, 20 the duties of which
he has since devoted his attention.

AS an item of information. it may be
worth while to state that a capitalist re-
siding at Waverly, Iowa, received letter
few days ago inviting him to meet
members Of the capital commission and
the syndicate at Minneapolis last Mon
day and enter into plan to make some
money out of townsite speculation.
The said townsite was the capital of Da.
kota as it is to be located by the commits.
sion. The letter stated that the location
was to be made at point where the
Northwestern and the Milwaukee rail
roads come together-that the railroad
companies were to pay the $4,000
bonus to the territoly-that the syndicate
was 70 own the balance of the townsitt
and any adjacent lands they might Sc.
fit to purchase. The Waverly capitals
did not attend the meeting because b.
was prevented by sickness. 1t is proba
bly, only aremarkable coincidence tina
Governor Ordway has acquiantnnces al
Waverly, as the gentlmen who received
the letter is not one of those acquaint
ances.

We publish in this issue an article
taken from the "Ordway Record" 1t is
q correct account of transactions which
occurred during the legislative session OF
two years ago, when Ordway was schem-
ing to gain possession of majority for
the purpose of dong just what he ac-
complished with the more plastic mate
rial of which the last legislature was
composed. The details of the recital are
worth publishing at this time, as they
are known to only the few who were in
the fight. Through the sagacious man
agement OF the Yankton delegation,
headed by John Gamble, the Ordway
harvest was postponed two years.

The Grand Forks l;ews gives the fol-
lowing extract from letter written by
an eastern capitalist to friend in Grand
Forks which, the News says, will show
the reputation the late legislative major
ity. backed by Gov. Ordway, made for
Dakota:
What are you doing up in Dakota? The ter
ritory stood badly before among eastern capi-
talists, owing to the repudiation Of the Yank.
ton county bonds. and now with the reckless
manner in which your legislature appropriated
money for universities, asylums and peniten
tiaries. it would seem as though they cared yer,
little about the taxation of the realty of DakG
ia and stood in need of asylums and really de
going to do with her university? / hope they
will have the good sense to locate it away from
town. as it is a great damage to adjacent pro.
perty, by reason of the recklessness of the stu.
dents, who arc no respecters of private rights.

Gated property in the immediate vicinity ha.

scheme is not meeting with favor. Why did
not the people have a chance to vote upon the
location! 1t seems to me that would have beer
more equitable and just.

1t may be remembered that not many months
ago the Alert said in reference to the failure
