being made in California with the seed
Of the Cochin China grapevine. Seed
has been,d stributed among eight hum
dred persons in various parts Of the
state, and no pains will be spared, to &C.,
climatize this wonderful vine on. the
Pacific coast. In its native state it
has been found in attitudes varying
FROM one hundred to three thousand
feet above the sea level, producing
everywhere an enormous crop OF fruit.
With proper care authorities in grape
culture believe that the Cochin China
variety can be grown in all the wine
regions in California and on the Pacific
coast. A vine similar to this. but more
vigorous and productive. was lately dis
covered on the coast of Guinea by Senior
Arpore, chief Of 4 scientific mission sent
to that country by the Portuguese govern.
me:nt The plant was found to he about
four feet high With q crop GRAPES vary
ing from ninety pounds. to one hundred
pounds on each vine. The fruit was de-.
licious. and the wine made from it by
Apore and companions was found ve:y
good coon after, rich in aroma, in color
and alcohol. A report is being prepared
on the subject for the Portuguese gov
eminent. The Soudan and the Guinea
annual tuberous vines are of the same
genus as the Cochin China; but the first
is a dwar, and The second little better,
as compared with tie lart:named: In
Cochin it grows in some 'orasts as high
as one hundred feet, climbing UP and
around lofty trees, or stretching itself
on the coil, and in some places the
vine becomes wonderful mass of large
clusters OF luscious grapes from top to
bottom.

NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED.
Father Tomaxin's Efforts in Behalf of til,

Father Tomaxin's Efforts in Behalf of the
Red Lake chippewas.
Washington, Jan. 26-The presence
of Father Tomazin and the two chiefs of
the Red Lake Chippewas seems to be
without special purpose SO far as any
thing to be accomplished is concerned.
They were all at the capitol to-day and
formed part Of the lobby in the CORR
ders. They were quite busy button-hol-
ing members, and seem to have fallen
into the ways Of the lobby very readily.
Their work is, however, wholly frujtless
and unnecessary. Major Strait said to-
day that he advised Father Tomazln be-
fore he left Minnesota that there was
nothing to be accomplished by his COM
ing to Washington, as the Washbnrn
consolidation bill would not i be
pressed for passage this con-
,gress.s The fact is, Mr.. Wash
burn himself has decided not to push
the bill in the shape 1t came from the
committee, and Mr.. Deering, who has it
in charge, has not yet, and probably
never will, report it to the house. The
original bill contemplated placing the
Indians on the White Earth reservation
and throwing open to settlement certain
i6nuS a0Qed TO tnlS reservation by the
executive order of March 10, 1879, but
the bill, on the Recommendation by the
commissioners of Indian affairs, was so
charged by the committee as to include
these land. about 100000 acres, from the
Red Lake reservation in the proposed
consolidation. It was also. amended
o. TO place certains RESTRICTIONS
upon the sale of I the lands
which would be thrown open to the pub.
lie il the consolidation scheme became a
law. But the bill in this shape does not
seem to receive active support, and will
never pass through the first stages ,oi
legislation. In the face of this fact it il

Washington Telegram, 9th. ia
The marquis Of Lorne left the gallery
of the house upon the conclusion of Nc
Kinley's speech, and was conducted by
the speaker to a room in the rear of the
hall of ofrepresentatives, where an inform-
a repe1tfon was held. The mem bers of
ha.cOmmittee on foreign relations first
presented their members generally.
The visitor cOmpimented Mckinley
upon his speech, and in the few minutes
they stood talking made some allusion
to the effect of the tariff system upon
Canada. From the house the partywas
conducted by the sergeant.at-arms to
the senate. Sergeant t-at-arms Bright
met them and conducted the marquls to
the floor, where an informal presentation
of senators took place, Plumb was
speaking on the tariff, and while the in
PRODUCTIONS were going on, and after half
an hours conversation, Lorne and party
left the capital. w .s -,
After leaving the capital to-day the
marquis OF LOrne, accompanied by his
suite and the British minister, called
upon tha secretsry of state, who has been
for some days past confined to his house
by GseTafe cold. The interview was
quite an extended one, during which the
secretary presented his family to the
marquis. The marquis subsequently at
tended the reception of Mrs. McElroy,
the presidents sister.
At 1880 the marquis and party left the
legation and were driven to the white
house to meet the president at dinner.
Elaborate preparations had been made.
The parlors were tsstefully decorated
with flowers and tropical plants, while
the state dining-room received more than
usual care in its adornment. In the cen
tre Of the table was large Indian canoe
of purple and white carnations resting
ona large mirror, which was trimmed
with California lilies, roses and smi.
lax. .eAteither end of the canoe were
miniature, Canadian sleds, formed~l-o
crimson flowers, while at the ends of the
table were floral designs representing
Lacrosse clubs and snow shoes. Tie
guests began to arrive at 7:45, and were
received ct the east room by the presi
dent and Mrs. McElroy. At O'Clock
the marine band struck up "Hail to the
Chief" and the president, with Mrs
Frelinghuysen, led the way to the din
ingroom. The marquis OF Lorne, will
Mrs. McElroy, followed, and were seated
at the table Wis Wis to the presiden
and Frelnghuysen. Among the othe
guests were David Davis, Chief Justic,
| Waite, Admiral Porter, Ged. Sherman
Speaker Keifer and Senator Cameron
and their wives and ladies. The Dime
was an elaborate one of fourteen courses
and the guests sat late. To-morro,
evening the marquis will be entertaine,

RAILROAD TAXATION.
An Argument Against any Change in the
Law Relative Thereto. e
Chamberlain Register

An Argument Against any Change in the
Law Relative Thereto.
Chamberlain Register.
There is quite prevalent opinion
among our people that railroads do not
pay taxes. This is not correct. Chapter
AZ, of the laws of 1879, provides that all
railroads operated in this territory shall
pay two per cent. upon their gross earn
ings' for the first five years of their exis-
tence, and three per cent. thereafter.
Under this law, Gov. Ordway reports
in his message, the railroads of the terri
tory paid, in 1881, on the business of
1880, $22,5S3,89; that, in 1882 they paid,
upon the business Of 1881, $35,6l4.39, oy
an increase of fifty per cent. Tie mile
age is rapidly increasing, and probably
the taxes of the railroads alone, within .
few years, will amount to one-half of the
expense of our state or territorial gov.
ernment. -ol'.3.I
The entire receipts for 1881, from all
sources, by taxation on 1880 for territori-
al purposes, was $55,915.86. So the
railroads paid nearly one-halfas much as
all the balance of the territory, with an
her banks, farms. towns, and cities; and
for 1882 the receipts for tax OF 1881, from
all sources aside from railroad taxes, was
Sl02, ,524.48, while the railroads paid $685..
61439, or little over one-third as much
as the balance of the territory. All the
railroad tax paid, however, does not 70
to the territorial fund. It is believed
that, it, there is not too much. anffiendly
legislation that at least, 500, miles iof
railroad will be added to the railroad
mileage of this territory within tile next
two years; but, with unfriendlyi legisla-
ton, railroad building is liable to cease.
But the, argument used is that
the counties through which the, railroR
runs should have share Of this tax.
Correct; the law provides that two.t thirds
of the entire ta1 received shall be appor-
toned among the different counties
through which the railroad runs, in pro-
portion to the number Of miles that is
situated in that particular county. In
obedience to this Law, Brule county, last
year, received $25800. Besides, someIof
these railroads will soon have to begin
to pay their three per cent, under the
five year clause. l4'h.A .As'A
We believe therecommendation Of the
governor q Wise one. and that the pre-.
sent law should remain upon the statute
books.
The rolling stock. road bed, iron, DC.
on new railroad, costs just as much and
more in dollars and cents when now az
in new road, but everybody knows that
a new railroad, built into Q new county
is not paying institution at first; b6l
as the country gets old, and the railroad
old, that the gross earnings increase, an6
it would be unfair to tax the new EaSl
road on its actual worth of material

/ would be greater at first, when the basi
was better.

Delegate Pettigrew has compiled o
table Of statistics somewhat similar to
those produced in the New Years edi-
ton Of the Press and Dakotaian, showing
the wonderful growth of Dakota, which
lie intends to make use of when the bill
for the division of the territory is taken
up. 1t appears from this statement that
the whole number of original homesteads
taken in Dakota from January, 1868, the
time of'the organization of the territory,
to June 80, 1880, inclusive, was 29,s12.
The population at the date last men.
toned was $4,000, indicating proper.
tion of AZ persons to each homestead
entry. From July l, 1880, to December
81, 1882, the whole number of original
homestead entries in Dakota was 1886,
indicating, at the rate of one homestead
to. AZ persons, an increase Of population
Of l6l ,O4s. of whom lo4. 900 are in southern
Dakota; and 57,048 in northern Dakota
At the time of the census there were
100000 in southern Dakota and $4,000 in
northern Dakota, SO on January 1st, 1888
there were 2o5.OOO people in - proposed
state Of Dakota and 90,04s in the pro
posed territory of north Dakota. The
population of the whole territory was
therefore 294O4s. AS further evidence
of the immense growth of the territory
it is shown that the receipts of the post
Office department from Dakota alone fol
the quarter ending September 80, 1880
were 232l, and for the quarter ending
September 80, 1882, they were $66,356
over twice as large as they were for th.
June quarter of 1880. There are now a
least five states in the union which yielt
smaller revenue 90 far as postoface re
ceipts are concerned than Dakota. Thes,
are Delaware. Florida, Nevada, Oregon
and West Virginia.
