We venture the assertion that of
the 3, 3,200,0 900 acres of land contained
within the Red Lake Indian reserya-
ton, which Congressman Nelson pro-
poses to endeavor to have opened up
10 tire public, there are not 100000
acres of tiliable land, and that the
remaining 3, 700, 600 acres are WORTH
less except for pine. tasnarac ana

Without ventiIring to- penetrate
into the mysteries of the present
order Of human affairs. and the great
scheme of fatality or accident, it may
be sufficiently evident to us, that
often on single event revolve the
fortunes Of men and of parties. Car
lisle's success st1ikingly exemplife5
this course of events. and it means
brilliant and glorious victory for the
democracy, and grand future for
the country. The principles involved
in the election of Mr.. Carlisle as
speaker, are the principles of a large
majority of the people of this Coun--
try, and the courage displayed in
openly advocating them will bear
golden fruit.
Journalism, as illustrated in
the dailies of the larger cities
of the west. proves success
financially, but a deplorable failure
from conventional, moral or INTEL
lectual stand point. There is hardly
a newspaper in the west, with the
exception, probably, of the old Gin.
cinnati Commercial, and, perhaps.
Frank Hatton's paper, that does more
than cater to political, ignorant or
depraved tastes. Instead of making
an effort to elevate, they publish that
which tends still farther to degrade.
We make Frank Hatton's paper an
exception. for the reason that we
have never seen it.
Ia Crosse Chronicle, (Dem.): Mr..
Sabin is undoub.e .edlv the most finish
ed and successful machine politician
that the Northwest has ever develop
ed. He is said to have gained con-
troll over the leading politicians of his
own State by bitching them to a
threshing machine syndicate and
States prison ring. The stock of his
great agricultural implement monop-
oily, it is said. has been distri buted
almost as lavishly as Credit Mobilier
stock by Oaks Ames, and so shrewdly
disseminated over the State where it
would do the most good. that Mr..
Sabin had very little trouble in STEP
ping from the presidency of the COM
pany into the United States senate.
AS dissemination of political s'soap"
Mr.. Sabin has established a record
that marked him out as most wor-
thy successor of the two great repub-
lican organizers who have preceded
him as the controlling influence in
the Republican national commilsee.
1t is a thankless position and very
likely to prove fatal politically to the
man that holds it, but Mr.. Sabin will
no doubt make a record before which
Iubbell'S and Dorsey's will dwindle
into insigniiicance, and be remem ber--
ed only as the rude first efforts OF
children.
From, the Hazelton Plain Speaker.
The boys on the back seats are re-
quested to preserve order while Dana,
Waterson and Mcclure fight the fight
that is to settle the destiny of the ma
tion. Meanwhile the band will play
1.-The Country can Stand it all.''
1t seems quite useless to speculate
about Mr., Carlisle's makeup of the
committees. The matter is not so
important that we cannot afford to
await his action with patience.
There is only one question that
need excite much discussion, and that
is whether he will make Mr. Randall
chairman of the committee on appro-
priations. If he decides to do other
wise his action will be highly impor-
tant. 1t was reported yesterday that
General Rosecrans had refused the
craftsmanship of the Military Commit
tee. but we don t believe it. The
craftsmanship of the Naval Committee
is not yet fixed. 1t will be either MI.
Morse or MI. Hewitt.

Fraud,-as witnessed in 1876.
Fanaticism.-through sectionalism
