Milwaukee. Wis. Feb. 22-"Little
Mike" Mendelsshon, the East Waite,
street clothier, who failed about three
months ago, is in an exceedingly queer
position. 1t appears that some time be.
fore his failure Mendlessohn made q
homestead entry in Dakota. The land
he selected proved very good property,
and be made considerable improvements
upon it, DO that now it 10 quite valuable.
The homestead Law expressly provides
that person making an entry under the
act must thereafter reside upon the land
entered. and the law of Wisconsin az
strongly lays down the rule that in order
for business man to make q
valid assignment for the benefit Of
his creditors he must be q resident OF the
state. When Mendelssohn made his as.
siEnment he was supposed to be. q resi-.
dent of Dakota, but was really living in
this city, together with his family. Those
OF his creditors. who sought to invalldate
his assignment claimed that as Mendel.
ssohn had made . homestead entry in
Dakota he was legally resident of that
territory and not OF Wisconsin, and that
his assignment WAS therefore void. To
counteract this claim, Mendelssohu
affirmed on oath that he was legal resi-.
dent Of Wisconsin. The result was en-
tirely unforeseen. A person in Dakota,
bearing Of the matter. jumped Mendel-
ssohn's claim there, and proposes to bold
it, too, claiming that Mendelssohn has
abandoned it and become Q resident of
this state.

Further accounts from the national
seat Of government render still more un
Ineligible the bill introduced by Sena
tor Harrison for the admission OF the
southern half Of Dakota. A correspon
dent states in specific terms that the bill
contemplates the ratification of the Siou1
Falls constitution and then goes on to
explain that it
Provides for organizing state to be
known as Dakota from that part of the
territory OF that name south of the 18th
parallel. A constitutional convention 10
to be held on the second Tuesday in De.
cember. Delegates to be elected Nov

arc to be elected from single districts.

sumo debts incurred for erecting such

limits.

that there is objection to attach

crsts there will antagonize it. because

Vance admitted having been q know.
nothing, but defended himself against
the charge Of ever being repudiator.
The witnsas said the facts of the Dan.
VILE riot had been exaggerated, but its
outcropping had not. It had been rep
resented by the whites az negro up
rising, and the whites had been appealed
to assist tkeir fellows in danger with
their votes. This led to democratic
victory. Wise said he did not advocate

DIvisio. AnenE tho Democrats.


Washington. Feb. N-The effect of the
recent democratic committee meeting
here is unfavorable to the Morrison tariff
bill, and Chairman Barnum. Mr.. Cleve.
land Of New Jeraey and others have been
trying to impress upon the democratic
members of congress, that tariff agita-
tion will not help the election of their
presidential ticket. The summary man.
ner in which the free trade proposition
introduced in the committee By Morton,
of Nebraska, was disposed of shows that
this fear was prevalent in the committee,
and the more it 10 discussed the more
nervous timid democrats have become.
But Morrison is net be bulldozed.
He proposes to report his bill
to the house and insist upon its con.
sideration. He says that he does not
think that New Jersey and Connecticut
are the only states in the union, and
that the democratic party can get more
votes in the west by reducing the tariff
than they can possibly lose in the east.
He claims that Barnum and others Who
are opposing him are interested in keep.
ing up the tariff for personal reasons. ss
they are engaged IN the manufacture Of
iron and do not represent their party in
this particular. There 10 good deal Of
feeling against Barnum among the
western democrats. and he will not be
reelected chairman Of the democratic
national committee. It 10 claimed BY
free trade democrats that the delay in
the committee on appropriations 10 not
owing to the inability Of that oreanixs.
tion to prepare the bills, but they believe
that Randall is holding back the appro.
priation bills 80 as to antagonise and
prevent action on the tariff when Morn.
son reports the measure to the house. II
is fact that the appropriation commit.
tee has not been DO dilatory for Year, a.
in this congress. and this explanation 10
the most reasonable yet offered.
