Purity to- the Fronr-Vice to the
Rear.
Press and daily Dakotaian. (Yankton, Dakota Territory [S.D.]) 1880-1889, 1884-01-08

Newspaper writer's are beginning to
make suggestions regarding Governor
Ordway's successor, in the faith that the
president cannot continue him ir Office
much longer. A correspondent of the
Chicago Inter-Ocean, writing from
Mitchell, makes these propositions:
Now that the righteous war upon Gov
ernor Ordway has assumed respectable
proportions, the question naturally
comes up as to who, in the event of Ord
way's removal, would be likely to suc-
ceed him. In this connection the name
of the Hon. j. H. Teller, secretary of the
territory, has been suggested as that of
a man who would be acceptable to the
people of Dakota.
II that is the kind of governor the
president was to give Dakota. Secretary
Teller would suit first rate. or President
Arthur might have recourse to some older
Dakotaian, like Ex-Governor Edmunds,
the purity of whose administration is
remembered with gratitude by the peo.
pie.
The Redfeld Sun expresses itself as
follows:
IL there Is to be q change in the gov
ernor Of Dakota, why would not Hon.
Geo. b. Hand, of Yankton, be avuiIable
man? He is an old citizen, end is per
haps better acquainted with the affairs
Of the territory than any other person.
As secretary of the territory aud an old
citizen, bis record in unimpeachable, and
his ability is known and recognized. We
see no necessity Of importing persons
outside Of the state of Dakota to hold Its
| Offices. We have plenty of good material
ut home. Why not use some of it's oc.
casionally?
As these are all Yankton men it would
hardly be becoming in Yankton news.
paper to advance the suggestions con.
tanned within the foregoing paragraphs
but we can, with perfect propriety
second the motion. 1t is fact that Da
kota contains as much gubernatoria
material as many of the states and it car
be found in almost every city and villag,
in this broad land. The president car
satisfy the people of this territory b,
choosing from among them.

The weight Of evidence far develop.
ed incllnes us to the opinion that the
charge Of bribery against Gov. Ordway
is q malicious fiction.-Minneapolis Jour.
nal
The evidence thus far consists. of q
charge and denial. The prisoner at
the bar is asked if he is gnilty or
not guilty. He answers, in
most instances, mot guilty"
From this expression upon the part of
the prisoner the Minneapolis Journal (if
consistent in all things) would reach the
conclusion that the charge against him
was malicious fiction" The editor OF
that paper will never be caught on 9

A QUEENS OPINIoN.-What

A QUEENS OPINION. What a
peculiar feeling is experienced by
Americans the first time they gaze
upon royalty. Here, in this free
country, where every citizen is a
king and every mother a queen, a
peep at royalty or titled princes and
potentates does not come very often.
Morbid curiosity often leads our cit
liens to act in manner unbecom-
ing their high estate. PERUNA is
fast making its way throughout the
land and is becoming known. Ev-
erywhere that it is used by the sick
and afflicted, it makes wonderful
cures, and is given all the praise for
its good work.
j. M. Green writes from Johns.
town, w. Va, that he has been
sorely afflicted for several years, but
he was urged to try PERUNA, which
he did, and he now feels that he is
about over his trouble, and consid.
ers it the greatest medicine in the
world. He says he has to go or send
distance of fifteen miles to obtain
PERUNA, but it will repay him for
this. Ask for it at the nearest drug
store.

Better than Fighting.

A vetran of the war, who was
not particularly remarkable for his
bravery in the ranks, but who
nevertheless is in receipt of q

his experience as a soldier.
"Were you ever taken prisoner,
sir" he was asked.
"Iguess I was" he replied, en-
phatically. II was prisoner of
war for eight months, and slept
on the ground in open air all the
the time. Some days I would get
something to eat and some days I
wouldn't. I nearly starved to
death"

THE HIGHLAND EDUCATION -
There is great deal that is wrong
in our modern method of education.
1t teaches a man to be a gentleman,
but yet does not give him the power
Of making living. It stuffs him
with facts and meaningless words,
phrases and theories, put does not
enable him to think for himself and
become a man in the highest and
best sense. His education is too gen.
eral and not practical enough. All
classes should be taught that Peru
na-the great remedy compounded by
DR.. Hartman-is the very thing he
needs for the restoration of health
and the toning up of the body. Be-
ing composed of pure vegetable sub
stances and containing no poisonous
minerals, it is just the thing for all
classes of people, land all should learn
at once that it is to their interest to
inquire into the merits of this med
icine. Ask your druggist for Pc
runa.

Of Interest to Teamsters.
Chicago Times

A farmer who had used wagon
with broad ties on the wheels long
enough to ascertain their relative
value as compared with narrow
ties, writes: ga four inch tire
will carry two tons over soft
ground with greater ease to the
team than a two and one half.inch
tire will carry one ton. The wheels
are not sustained so much by
stones and rough tracks on the
road, and the road is not cut up,
but on the contrary is packed
down and kept smooth. Thepre-
valiant idea that the draught is in
creased by widening the tire is
altogether baseless; on the con
trary, a wide tire reduces the
draught. The extra cost of the
tire is repaid many times over
every year in the extra work that
can be done by a team"

too little which presently it hath,
supposeth itself to stand in need
of all which it hath not.-Sir
Walter Raleigh.
