The Way They Do It.
Dakota Register

We are sorry Bro. Wheelock accepted
the secretaryship of the commission. We,
however, do not think it will do what it
was designed to do.
OrdwAy secured the appointment of
young Chandler 80 as to hold the influence
of the secretary of the navy in the cabinet,
and Ralph Wheelock was appointed sec
retary of the commission, first, to catch
and secure j. H. Teller, the secretary of
the territory, his brother-in- law; and,
second, through this. to secure the en-
dorsmcnt of the secretary of the interior
in the cabinet.
1t won't work. 1t will be pleasant for
the people of Dakota to know that it was
Senator Edmunds and Senator Teller that
defeated Ordway's nomination for SER
geant-at-arms of the senate, and the way
it was done was this: The gray headed
senator from Vermont, knowing we'll his
neighbor from New Hampshire, quietly
informed his senatorial brethren that if
they nominated Ordway they would not
vote for him, but would vote first for the
democratic nominee, and Senator Teller,
standing up by his side. said here is anoth-
err, too will vote for the democratic
nominee before | will vote tor such man
as Ordway
We have a hard fight, and we may not
make it, but we are going to make lively
trial.

Dakota's crop outlook is somewhat
gloomily represented from reports from
the northern portion. Some papers do
not seem to recognize the fact of there
being any Dakota excepting what is trib.
utary to the Northern Pacific and St.
Paul. That frozen region may now be
hindered from the early putting in of crops
and thus intimidate the land sharks and
machine men by prospect of a small crop
or diminished craze, but no such fears
prevail here. Seeding is nearly over and
the ground never was in better condition
than now. With the Press to blow
about the northern portion which pays trib-
ute to its metropolis, and the Journal to
air our local troubles, southern Dakota is
sandwiched to obscurity by these outside
publications, and receives anything bnt
favorable comments it is entitled to. The
present is everywhere late season, and
rich lands and thriving industrious people
can not control the weather, but notwith-
standing the croakings and dismal forbod-
ings of those northern people have now
good reason to undergo, it is the sound
judgment of reliable persons that this years
acreage crop in Dakota will be more than
double and with the ordinary yield, a.
100000 bushels of grain will be the out
come against the 10000, 900 bushels last
year.

President Arthur returned to Woshin,

President Arthur returned to Washing
ton from his southern trip Sunday eve
ming. He was met at the depot by only a
few friends, desiring no reception or dis
play. He seemed very much annoyed at
the kilograms that preceded him regarding
his alleged sickness. Divers reports were
afloat of his dangerous illness, etc, all of
which he alleges are without foundation
1t is reported that the president has been
and is unusually sensitive about his health,
at times seeming apprehensive that there
was some fatality connected with his Ella
vation to the White House, but evidently
there is no cause for fear of declining
health, although he has been slightly in
disposed and made lis trip south for OBJ
tanning rest and change from the excite
ment of the capital and office hunters.
He now declares that he feels better than
he ever did in his life, and returns to his
duties invigoratcd and cheerful.

The most sensible suggestion made rel
atiye to the admission of Dakota comes
from kasson of Iowa, who advises the
calling of a convention for the framing of
a constitution, which when done, present
to congress and demand admission under
it. If fpolitics is to deny our admission
or in other words, the fear that the terri
tory being republican would give that
party an increase in the national represen-
tation, this would certainly force the
opponents to show their hands. If, as
has been represented by persons high in
official position here, we are not fit to at
tempt to govern ourselves, lie. the pro-
duction Of constitution and the debates
that will OF course be made, be shown as
test OF the ability and brains that Dako-
ia men possess There is no reasonable
excuse to be made for our non admission.
We have the territory, the wealth, the
population and all the elements of making
a grand, powerful and influential state.
Yes! two or four of them. With these
essentials, no party in congress can long
deny us our rights, or withstand our de-
demand if made through the medium
above referred to- 1t is the surest and
quickest way out of our local troubles
with appointees from abroad, who care
not for the welfare of the territory or its
people, only to feather their own nests
and those of their kith and kin. 1t is
worth the trial, and the sooner started the
sooner over with 1t is an ordeal that
must be gone through, and it is inevitable
as long as salaried positions tor baggers
are open for grabs, so long will opposition
to admission be urged and organized and
and we hope to see the press agitate this
matter until it eliminates in effecting the
desired object.

The Sioux valley has thus far been pc
culiarily favored as to absence of any of
those terrible hurricanes or cyclones that
have visited other localities and leaving
death and destruction of property in their
path. The storm of Sunday became a cy-
clone at the town of Beauresford and
Wessen, Mississippi. In the two places
36 persons were killed and 80 wounded.
l27 houses were entirely destroyed; and
a remarkable coincidence one year ago the
same day and hour Monticello, six miles
from Wesson, was destroyed the same way.
At Chattanooga, Tenn, buildings were
wrecked. At Sanburg Ia., the catholic
church and three houses were destroyed,
also at Dunlap, To-, fayms. houses met the
same fate. Eastman Geo, sansStddam-
ages and lives were lost. In Colorado trains
were blocked with snow, and up to Tues.
day morning the storm was undated. :.

George Scheller, accused Of setting fire
to the Newhall House, was acquitted by
the jury on Tuesday last. Five ballots
were taken, and only one of the jurors
for conviction all that time, and he finally
gave in because Judge Mallory instructed
that if there was any doubt in his mind,
he must give the prisoner the benefit of
the doubt. The court room re-echoed

Washington. "You have seen pink
gauze," says a correspondent at the

tops of crates full of peaches, and the
mellowing effect it has. So the ladies

bewilderingly lovely with the beautiful
color which they seem to impart."

An Apparition.
to 81, Louis Globe Democra

Ikt'IF<-rt Nf~T-f~
The neighborhood of Hopewsll Church.
near Mexico, NO., is much excited over
the appearance in the locality Of
strange creature, which is thought by
the oredulous to be ghost. and which
il q puzzle at least to tho most skeptical.
The apparition is simply that of lean
monster man, between eight and ten feet
in height, wearing long cloak, and 60
inc about with his head bowed in an abb
stracted way, but occasionally giaring at
those il meets with small, glittering eyes,
said to resemble those Of cat or some
wild beast. The negroes believe the ap-
partition is ghost, hewhite peopledo not
know what to say. There appears little
doubt, whatever the creature may be,
that II has actually been seen number
OF times. The school at Hopewell
Church is about abandoned because OF
fear Of the monster, and even sturdy
farmers 80 about armed, in apprehen-
sion Of it. John Creary, well-known
old resident. declares that yesterday
afternoon as he was returning from Mex
seo to his home he had good view of
the queer being, who was about fifty
yards ahead Of him, walking in leis-
ureiy way along the middle Of the big
road, In mud almost knee deep, his head
still lowered and his long, black cloak
flowing IN the breeze. All At once, and
in the twinkling of an eye, he disap-
Peared in the thick woods as mysterious
y az no came upon the scene. MIR.

object.
Mr.. Cyrus Haggert and wife. who
were returning from church Thanksgiv-
ing eve. were surprised by the monsters
peering with its cat-like eyes into their
buggy and leaning against it, almost
crushing the vehicle. The lady has not
yet. it Is said, recovered from the shock.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. both claim on this
occasion white cloak was worn.
A large number of others have seen
the strange creature, and tonight q
large party is securing the neighborhood
of Hopewell Church, hoping to capture
It. The newspapers Of the city are rep
resented in the searching party, which
includes one or two st. Louisans. and
report from the expedition is awaited
with much interest. The creature Is
thought to be located in the kills in the
rear Of one Philip Browns residence.
The Mexican party is under the leader
ship Of Bob White and Merkel. No
services will be held in the Hopewell
Church tomorrow.
