A PROCLAMATION
By tho Acting Governor of Dakota
Territory.

By tho Acting Governor of Dakota
Territory.
The planting and cultivation of trees
in prairie country is subject of so great
importance as not to be easily estimated.
1t concerns not only the comfort, but the
material interests of the people, and ap-
peals as well to the desire for pscuniary
gain as to love of the beautiful and orna-
mental. 1t is a subject in which all are
alike interested and upon which all may
act.
The success ofarborculture in this Ter
ritory has already been demonstrated,
and there isno doubt that both individual
and general interests would be greatly
benefited by the setting apart and culti-
walton of, part Of every farm in the Ter
ritroy rs permanent plantation for the
raising oftimber. With tlissupplement-
ed by proper planting for ornament along
the streets and around the residences
and school houses and public grounds in
both town and country, the outlay will
be returned ten fold in the increase of
values and the added beauties of farms
and homes. While laying the foundation
of what is destined to lie u great and
populous commonwealth we should not
reject the help which nature offers to
make it at the same time both beautiful
and rich.
As is well known, in some states a day
is annually set apart to be devoted by
the whole people to the planting of trees,
and in view of the advantage thus gained
securing a united effort to this
end, with the hope of establishing GUS
tom proved valuable in other comlnun-
tiles, do earnestly recommend that the
people of this Territory observe Wednes-
day, the 23rd day Of April next, as Arbor-
day, and that it be devoted to the plant
ing Of trees.
In testimony whereof have hereunto
set my hand and affixed the great
[sEAL] seal of said Territory, at Yankton,
this 3lst day of March 1884.

Secretary and Acting Governor of
Dakota Territory.

WORK or CONGRESS.

The work is steadily going on in
Congress. One Of the most i'm
portant steps taken, was the re-
peal Of the laws prescribing the
ironclad oath. Below can be scen
an account of the action taken in
the matter:
Mr.. Cox, Of New York, moved
to suspend the rules and pass the
bill repeating all laws prescribing
the irOnclad oath.
Mr.. Boutelle, Of Maine opposed the
bill. He was unable to recognize any
exigency whic' called for the intro
ductiOn Of this measure. If the repeal
Of tn, test oath would have the ten.
dency Of Fastening the era Of good
feeling he would heartily favor it, but
he believed that the Interpretation
would be harmful to the country
When ever concession of this kind was
interpreted in the South as a retrOgres-
sion from the standpoint of loyalty,
and rs a sanction or condonation of
attempt to destroy the Government,
he must entcr his protest against it.
Mr.. Cox explained thlt the bill only
affected jurors and men who take the
ironc]ad oath. The men who had been
in secession did not take this oath.
Therefore it did not affect Southern
men. The ironclad oath was but /,
rotten reminder Of the clumsy butrcs.

ANOTHER WAY TO GET RID OF
'THE SURPLUS-o

The members of Congress from
our State should at once introduce
a bill appropriating one or two
million dollars for the construction
Of the Carolina, Cumberland Cap
and Chicago Railroad. This great
enterprise is about as important as
the Mississippi River, and 1T is GER
tainly more important to the coun-
try than the half dozen or more
small rivers in Florida which Sen
ator Call, of that State, wants the
Government to clean out and make
navigable. Indeed, it seems to us
that the building Of railroads with
the surplus money in the National
Treasury would do more for the
general prosperity Of the country
than the reduction or abolition Of
the tariff about which so much
loud clamor has been heard. -
Edgcfield Chronicle.
This short article evidently
shows that the editor Of the Edge
field Chronicle has the good Of
our new railroad at heart. We
may not expect to receive an ap-
preparation from Congress, for the
building OF our road, but we may
oXpcct to receive aid from our own
quarters, and perhaps from others.
Any class of people who are able
to grasp any important subject,
should take this enterprise in hand
and give it all the attention which
it so much deserves. We havn't
heard Of mass meeting being
called yet for our township. Now
is good time for holding one.
