The Plankinton Standard enqulres
what does Secretary Teller mean in the
second paragraph Of his reply to Gov.
ernor Ordway?" The Standard then
draws its own conclusions:
While the secretary does not openly
admit that bribe was offered him by
Ordway and his hirelings, to those who
can read between the lines the impllca.
tion is there nevertheless. We are glad
from the bottom OF our soul that this
satrap OF governor, whose official ca.
pacity is an oppression upon nine. tenths
of the people of Dakota, has found a
man at last that he cannot bulldoze OF
bribe into aiding or abetting his afro.
cious vIllainy. The utter contempt that
Secretary Teller feels toward this
schemer is shown in the sarcasm and
cutting irony that he uses throughout
the entire answer. All honor to Secre.
tary Teller who dare stand boldly to the
front and hurl back into the teeth of his
prostitution his refusal to become a
partner in his base and Infamous
schemes.

There is an answer to the special
pleading of the attorney general III the
following paragraph from the Huron
Times:
Alex. Hughes thinks that the selection
of new site for Dakota's capital by the
commission was valid proceeding be-
cause the site for the national capital was
chosen by commission. But the latter
was appointed under different circum-
stances from those which surrounded the
sreatiop of the former. Mr.. Hughes ev-
identity forgets that congress was not
hampered by any such restrictive provi-
sion as that which applies to the legisla.
ture of Dakota in dealing with the capi.
tai removal subject. The constitution OF
the United States was more liberal in
that respect than is the territorial organ.

CONSTITUTION COMMENTS.

Tie Document Adopted Mt Sioux Falls

Estelline Bell: In another place we
give a number of points culled from the
constitution that is to be submitted to
the people Of the future state of Dakota
at the coming election. The selections,
though few, will, we hope, give a fair
idea of the general tone of it on the more
common ana important questions con.
cerning the welfare of the people. It is
o surprisingly able document consider
ing the short time given to its prepara.
tion. No details have been overlooked
and We have seen but few changes sug
gested. 1t needs but small comment
from us except to say that our advice to
everyone would be to cast the ballot

ceded by all ,who have read it to be an

ble to considerable portion of the
voters was rejected. The matter of the
election of state officers was left with
the state executive committee, who wisely
postponed the election until after the

submit the prohibition clause but to ap.
pease the temperance element, made it

An Interesting Incident Of Travel in
Montana.

A letter to the Philadelphia Press thus
describes the recent stage robbery near
Helena, Montana: The stage was moy-
ing along at walk, about noon, when
three masked rulfians emerged from
their hiding place, and, leveling their
shotguns at the driver and passengers,
shouted Hands up" The order was
promptly obeyed, without a murmur,
and, in obedience to the next command,
every man stepped from the stage with
his hands in the air, and formed in line
on the roadside. Then one of the
posse" stepped forward and helped
himself to the contents OF each pocket,
while the other two kept their guns
leveled so as to enflade the line. There
were two ladies aboard one on the box
and one insde-who cried bitterly. but
the gallant assurances of the Claude
Duvals that nobody would be killed I'M
less they resisted, allayed their fears;
for they knew too well that the terror
stricken nine with their hands in the
air hadn't strength enough left to pull a
trigger. The valuablcs being secured,
the stage was allowed to pass on, and a
merchant with two-horse team, who
followed, was next held up, but was
victimized only to the extent of some
whisky and cigars. Though this is
quite serious business, yet it has its
ludicrous side, which is worth telling.
One passenger in leaving the stage put
his pocket-book, containing S270, in
the folds of the curtain and did not
search for it again until the stage had
progressed eight miles, so great was
his decentralization, and then to his hor-
ror it was gone; later, however, it was
found on the floor of the coach. A
Chicago gentleman who wore kid gloves,
was detected fumbling with his finger,
and upon being made to take off his
glove displayed what was apparently a
plain gold ring, which he desired to re-
tain, lit being the gift of a dear friend. "
The willy highwayman, however, turned
over the finger and found to.his delight
supurb brilliant. THAT is sinner, +"
he exclaimed; ga perfect daisy and he
transferred it from the finger to his own
boot. Among the wreck the next day
was found government envelope adj
dressed to some official in the territory,
upon which was Endorsed in pencil,
Opened by mistake by posse of three
highwaymen. Last night | listened
to the story of the robbery told by one
of the victims to crowd of friends
An "old-timer," sitting by, inquired
how big the shotgun looked. ''Well,"
replied the victim, II could have driven
a siX-mule team down the barrel"
