They are going down to south Dakota

able, respectable and wealthy they may
be. these gentlemen, 40 far as the Repub-
lican knows them, do not reflect the
sentiment of the people of north Dako-
ia, large majority Of whom are opposed
to the admission Of Dakota as whole
and in favor of division. No doubt the
leading men of Bismarck are in favor of
keeping the territory intact and bringing
it into the union as whole. They are
so from self-interest, but this sentiment
prevails in no other section of north Da-
kota. The Republican il opposed to any
interference by the north with the south
in this matter. Let the people Of south

The Fargo Republican is becoming
more outspoken as time rolls on. Its
last expression carries it far ahead of any
of the old-time nti.commisson news
papers. 1t says:
AS in the past the Argus doomed Moorhead
to the detriment of Fargo, SO now it booms
Bismarck to the disparagemecto of the city and
the people from whom it draws its support. Its
columns teen with both original and selected
articles, giving glowing accounts of the great
boom at Bismarck, which really has no exist
aginution of those who sacrificed honor, prin-
ciple and decency in the dirty mud puddle of
the capital location fraud. Fargo was betrayed
and sold out, her interests basely sacrificed,
bat more than that, the whole territory of Da-
kota has been disgraced, her good name dis
honored, ana her fame tarnished, and the gang
who have accomplished this glory in the dirty
work they have done. and the Argus is their
organ and is doing all in its power to deceive
people coming from the east. to turn them away
from Fargo and send them to Bismarck to
be taken in and done for by the sharks who
are lying around to devour them. This may
please those who sold their honor and souls for
a liberal equivalent in Missouri bottom sand,
but it don't please the real friends of Fargo.

Bismarck proposition for the admis-
sion of Dakota as whole meets with no
response Of sympathy in northern Da-
kota. jamestown, Fargo, Valley City
and Grand Forks all oppose it-all ask
for division on the 4Gth parallel. The
south is united in behalf Of such divi.
sion, so Bismarck stands alone as the
champion of Dakota whole. Until
recently Bismarck was division advo-
cate. 1t now opposes division solely for
its own sake and with no regard for the
good of Dakota.

Grand Forks News
The following letter has been received
from prominent resident of north Ds-
kota. 1t has the true ring and is fully
in accord with the position Of the News.
We take advantage of slight acquaint-
ance with the writer, and, omitting his
name, disregard the personal" mark on
the envelope, knowing that the senti-
ments enunciated in his letter will be
heartily seconded by the honest people
of every ring-ridden community:
l have Just received the copy of your
paper of June 4. in which you ''go for"
the capitalization job. Hit it as you
may aud as you please. do
not think you can hit it amiss
unless you miss it hit. Whatever
diversity of opinion may exist or have
existed us to the rightfulness or pro-
priety of the removal of the capital, there
can be none rs to the manner OF it. The
whole thing reeks with the SAVIOR Of
scandalous jobbery. If every member
of the strolling gang of hukstering loca-
tora had been heretofore as stainless as
q seraph, he could not escape suspicion
at least, after snch performance. 1t
has from the first been disgrace to Da.
kotn and her people, and it is impossible
not to think of the possibilities of corrup.
tion in its consummation. am, aud
always have been, warm friend

had honorably and properly
come to north Dakota, do not
know any place that would more viii
lingly have seen secure it. But nortt
Dakota has no right to the capital, an6
her honest citizens did not expect it OF
wish it. South Dakota has from two
thirds to three.foulths of the entire pop
nlation of the territory, and on all prin
ciples of political Justice was and is en-
titled to the capital. That section vii
first be ready tor separate organization
and statehood, and it sheuld have it
own capital, located to SUIT its peopl,
without any interference or jobbery O
outsiders. Then, we could have LOCATED
a capital for our section to suit our
selves without any free.lunchinI
and vine swilling assistance from sucl
fellows as Ordway and Hughes. Ever
decent man in Dakota, north and south
