OF a revolutionist. announces that he
owes no allegiance to the findings of the
judiciary and asks the people to stand

will have much OF a following in his new
departure or that he will encounter
much sympathy in his effort to declare
himself dictator of Dakota.

A very little crumb comforts the Bis.
marcker in these trying times. In an
endeavor to cheer the dropping spirits of
its local readers the Tribune says:
The law passed by the last legislative
assembly repeating chapter one of the
political code, which fixed the scat of
government at Yankton is in no way
affected by Judge Edgerton's decision,
and leaves the governor by analogy in
the same position as that of the first
governor OF the territory, who is author.
lied BY the organic act to designate the
seat OF government and continue it there
until the governor and legislative
assembly shall jointly fix q permanent
location. 1t is therefore plain that
Yankton is no longer the seat of govern
ment, and that the governor will desig.
nate Bismarck as the capital, where it
must remain until the governor and
legislative assembly jointly select some
other place.
Analogy is convenient resort in
this emergency. but it will not reach .
great ways in the present instance. The
organic act says the "legis.
lsture shall hold its first
session at such time and place in the ter.
ritory as the governor shall appoint and
direct; but that as soon thereafter as
may be deemed expedient the governo,
aud legislature shall locate and establish
the seat of government at such place q.
they may think proper; but such place
shall thereafter be subject to be changed
BY the governor and legislative assem-
bly," The provision that the governo
shall designate place for holding th,
frat session Of the Legislature is mad,
because until there is such session
there exists no power to settle the aues
ton outside Of that delegated to tn,
Executive. After Q governor exercise
his right in this particular. and by sucl
exercise aids in creating legal legis

Governor Ordway does not stick to
the text provided by his co-conspirators
aud agreed upon as their platform in
their efforts to retain stolen property.
In his self constructed interview in the
st. Paul Pioneer Press, he causes him
self to assert in positive terms that, un-
der the provisions of the organic act,
should vacancy occur in the board of
capital commissioners, while the legis-
lature is not in session, he would
have the power to fill such vacancy by
appointment. The organic act says
upon this subject:
Sec. lS5s-In any of the territories,
whenever vacancy happens from re.
signation or death, during the recess ol
the legislative councilin any Office which
under the organic act of any territory
is to be filed by appointment of the
governor, by and with the advice and
consent of the council, the governor
shall fill such vacancy. etc.
By the confession OF the governor the
Office OF capital commissioner is then an
Office of the sort which should be filled
by appointment by the executive and
confirmation by the council. This was
one Of the strong points advanced by the
attorneys for the plaintiff and strenuous
ly combatted by the defence. AS mat
ter OF fact the commissioners we're not &C
appointed, but we're named in the bill!
an act clearly in violation of organic law
Now comes old inconsistency and holds
that he has the power to fill vacancies ir
an illegal body under clause in the ter
ritorial constitution which does MOI
apply to the case.

its alleged duties. The Tribune says:
The capital commissioners had com.

nine hundred lots. laid out around the
capital park and published an advertise
ment designating October Doth as the
day to commence the sale of these lots
at auction and this action having been

Been Imposed on, Perhaps.

Superintendent Goree told the Legislature
while the lessees were battling for ratif-
cation of the penitentiary leases that he
did not think the prisons could be made
self-sustaning. He adheres to this opinion.
We are not burdened with curiosity, but we
would just like to know how the lessees could
manage their prisons SO as to make big
money, and the state can't make them pay!
If the same conditions exist, and no radi-
cal changes have been made that we are
aware of, it seems to be frank admission
on the part of Mr.. Goree that the state has
not possessed itself of men to run the insti-
tuition who come anywhere in reach of the
lessees in financial ability and general
management Perhaps the governor has
allowed himself to be imposed upon in
making appointments. II Beltom Journal

to avoid street acquaintances that

behind them the hardly more dread

ready to accept questionable favors

AT last The John Howard Payne OBJ
sequcs are over, and his dust is deposited
under costly monument erected at WASH
ingtoh by Mr.. Corcorun, wealthy banker
of that city. The whole business looks to
ns rather like burlesque. Payne had
handsomely decorated and oft-vlslted
grave at Tunis where he died in the SER
vice of his country. Scarcely a handful of
his remains could have been left at this day,
aud it was simply absurd to remove them.
The object seems to have been more to glori-
fly Corcoran, the rich banker, than Payne, the
poor actor and poet, who if living, would
scarcely have been admitted to the table of
the former on terms of social equality.

Very Small Business.

The last Legislature provided for submit
ting 20 vote OF the people in August, GER
tain amendments to the constitution, aud IN
order that the voters might vote understand
iugly. provided further that tho Governor
should publish said amendments and notice
of election in one newspaper in every coun-
Nv of the State. We don't know whether 1t
was provided that such publication should
be made in the paper having the largest cir
culation. where there was more than one In
any county; but such is the general rule,
and the only right one where, as in the pres
ont case, the object was TO have the matter
as widely read ~ possible. Yet in the face
of this rule the powers that be at Austin saw
fit to give this advertising in this county to
the KYLE Nutshell, instead of the FREE Press
though the latter has, to say the very least,
more than twice the regular circulation of
the former, fact of which the dispensers Of
the advertising could not have been ignorant,
or il they were, of which they could easily
have satisfied themselves. We are not con-
cerned to inquire why this was done, nor is
it q matter of much consequence to us
We have simply this to say: If the powers
that be at Austin felt under obligations to
the distinguished publisher of the Nutshell
for his remarkable public and private servi-
ces, or felt like making him gratuity, they
should have put their hands in their own
pockets for that purpose, and not made the
people foot the bill. while at tho SAME time
depriving them of the privilege for which
they were made to pay, viz: information as
to the proposed constitutional amendments.
As to this matter, however, we don't intend
that our constituents of Hays county shall
be imposed on in this shabby fashion, but
shall, befors the election, publish at least
synopsis of the amendments, free of charge,
for their benefit. We want our good peo-
pie to know what is going on, and to have
the benefit of the circulation of a live paper
in this direction.
