The Question OF Prohibition.

The Question OF Prohibition.
Sioux Falls Press: Those prohibition
lists who allowed their zeal to get the
better of their Judgment, and attempted
to organize crusade against the consti.
tuition before they really knew what the
constitution provided or did not provide,
probably BY this time repent their haste.
At Canton and Salem they, the first OF
last week, adopted resolutions agreeing
to vote and to use their influence against
the adoption of the document because it
did not sontsin q prohibitory clause.
The fact is that the constitution really
saves their cause from themselves a. the
more intelligent of their number under.
stand. To have submitted such ques.
tion at an election which is to be con.
Quoted as the constitutional election ne
cessarily will be conducted, was simply
to have invited disaster without any pos.
Aible recompense for the risk; but the
constitution provides for the submission
Of the question after the due and ordi.
nary course of election laws shall have
been fixed, with every arrangement made
for guarding the polls. Every candid
person can SEQ that in this there is less
danger to the prohibition project, and
the prohibitionists should therefore feel
under obligations to the convention for
having provided better way than had
been asked Of them. OF course, how.
ever. it is to be expected that among the
prohihitionlsts, as among the supporter.
Of any measure, there will be some shal
low. patcd cranks, and that these viii
still blather about submitting the matter
at the time the constitution is voted up
on, and will undertake to oppose the
constitution because it does not contain
q prohibitory clause.

An Oshkosh Romance

Oshkosh, Wis, September 22-John l..
Williams, only son OF the late Rev.
Eleazer Williams. distinguished as the
"last dauphin of France" died to day at
Tigerton, Wis. Eleazer Williams claimed
to be the son of Louis XVI of France
and was we'll known as "The Bourbon
among the people. There are many
curious facts and circumstances con.
neeted with the early life of Eleazel
Williams, which prove him to have been
son of Marie Antoinette and Louis
WI. 1t will be remembered French
history relates that the dauphin wss
killed by the cruel shoemaker, "Simon.'
The story is Eleazer Williams, the dan
phin, was rescued and another infant wa
substituted for the dauphiu.

Chicago Inter-Ocean Correspondence.

scter and capacity Of the constitutional
convention, which closed it's session in
this city yesterday, have been comment
ed on in the full reports given OF the
proceedings by the Inter- Ocean, Pioneer
Press. and other papers east.
Ir. 3. NJ. Daball, of Hutchinson conn.
ty, has been at pains to prepare o table
showing the nativity OF members which
is interesting as showing who are the
Dakotaians. Out Of between 100 and lac
members, the highest number present at
any time, q total of 123 Dames was sc.
cured by Mr.. Daball, whose table credits
the states and countries named with the
births OF representative Dakotaians az
follows:

made Of private steamers in the Black
Sea, and their captains ordered 70 pre-
pare for transportation OF ammunition,
troops and provisions. These vessels
have ceased executing private orders,
and the carriage Of corn is thus inter-
ruptsd. Enormous provision depots have
been established along the frontier and
two army camps have been distributed
along the Vistula.

Mr.. Daball also prepared table SHOW
ing the occupation of l27 members, as
follove.

These tables are suggestive. The
small percentage OF those whose native
tongue is other than the English Ian
guage is noticeable, as it always is in a
public body OF Dakotaians, and the mum;
Der OF farmers, newspaper men and solid
citizens generally present showed the
movement to spring from the people.
The average age of the delegates pro-
badly did not exceed 35 years. although
the average age OF the more prominent
members, upon whom the real work of
the convention mostly fell, was 40 years.

IN on ground that was never plowed,
and this year turned off three tons of
hay to the acre. l now have speci-
mems in my Office four feet high. I
have also some samples of wheat in
my office four feet high and very large
well filled heads, that IVES sown on
fresh broke land on the 18th day of
May, and l feel confident it will yield
thirty bushels to the acre. Turnips
that weigh fifteen pounds each are
common. Carrots, beets, onions and
potatoes are large and yield album
dainty. but as yet are only raised in
small patches. Prices are very high
because there are thousands of con-
sumers and only few producers.
lam sure this is the finest wheat, bar
ley and grass country | ever saw. |
never have seen such fat cattle and
sheep in my life aud room for mil
lious of head to Craze. AS to the
amount of agricultural lands that are
valuable will say that there are
thousands of acres. During the month
of August there were sixteen thous-
and acres entered at this Office, and
only dotted the plats here and there
slightly. There are millions of fine
lands but it is divided by ranges of
mountains and no large bodies lay
together. Plenty of timber and water
everywhere. This good place for
the homeless who want lands if they
have pluck enough to help open up a
new country; if not, my advice is to re-
main "with their wives people"
But there are thousands of acres of
better lands than the average of La
bette county that is here subject to
presumption and homestead. Now
don't want any man to come here by
reason of anything l have said, for he
might not see it as do. But if he
has the nerve and does come he will
be able to get good land at a small
price. Capt. Hammar and Guy have
made some fine locations. G. p
Peters has also located some fine lands,
Wesley Myers, Charles Sprague and
l.. Spurgeon all from I.abette county,
have each located 800 acres Of land
that in three years from to-day will be
worth ten dollars per acre. If any of
my readers should decide to come
here they had better come early in the
spring, say about April.
