THE DAKOTA APPOINTMENTS.
Arthur's Late Appointments Severely
Criticised in Washington.
Pierce for Governor and Perry for Judge
Of Dakota.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. |

WASHINGTON, July 5.-There is a growing
disposition to criticise some of Mr.. Arthur's
recent appointments. His appointment of
nonresident and stranger as governor of
Dakota is severely commented on. 1t was in
glazing violation of one of the strongest
planks in the Republican platform, and that
makes it obnoxious to many Republicans,
who recognize the fact that their party is to
have hard time pulling through this year,
and do not think it can afford to take any
risks Of open hamming-proclaimin prin-
ciples only to trample upon them
in practice. This feeling is intensified
the appointee, has been known as the most
fulsome fatter of Arthur, personally, while
his paper, the Chicago News, is the most con-
spicuous bolter of Blaine's nomination, and
both before and since the nomination has
been filed with the bitterest attacks on the
tattooed man from Maine and his Black Jack
associate. Arthur's appointment of Pierce
under these circumstances is regarded not
only in bad taste, but in defiance of party in
terest.
Dakota men here are severe in their criti-
clsmS OF DeIeSaJe .RaymOnuS course III Ine
matter, as it not only put him in the position
of opposing the selection of citizen OF his
of his own territory, but, added to his open
lobbying for Arthur, places him in antago-
nism to the next administration, whether
Blaine or Democrat be elected.
But the worst nomination made for Dakota
is that of young Perry, for associate justice
of the territorial supreme court 1t is uni
versally denounced as an outrageous act of
personal favoritism on the part of Arthur.
Whether it was done to pay debt to some
convention wotker, or to accommodate a mem
Der of his cabinet, it was an inexcusable
thing for the president to do. Young Perry
is boy, hardly twenty-five years old, with
no knowledge of law or education Of any
kind to fit him for so important post. He
has simply been personal clerk to Secretary
Folger, is insignificant in appearance, has
no professional or social standing, and is
destitute of any qualification
whatever for the supreme judge
ship of a great territory. There
is not an apologist in Washington for this
outrage on right and decency by "Chet, f" the
fellow who, according to Bob Ingersoll, will
go down to fame as ''the only president of
the United States who ever went out of Office
with hundred an eighty pairs of breeches."

We publish in this issue a call for an
election to vote on the proposition of

town of Leaf River, such election to
be held at the usual voting place in
said town, on Monday, August llth.
But little need be said on this subject.
for we do not see /; shadow Of an ex-
cuse that a voter in that township can
make for not being III favor of bond
ing the township in such Il small sum
($l100,) when he will receive such
great benefit. There is vast amount
of good farming land north of the
swamps i'll Leaf River township, that
will never be settled to amount to any.
thing until a road is built through the
town so that the settlers can have a
chance of getting to market without
going from 20 to 30 miles. If this roadl
is built through there, stations viii
necessarily have to be built along the
ine,and little towns will spring up in
to existence, the township will be
thickly settled, and the lands will be
80 increased in value, and such an
amount of new taxable property will
be brought into the town that the rate
OF taxation will be greatly decreased
instead of being increased. We can
not see why Leaf River township will
not go solid for the bonus and we be-.
lieve it will.

The Froposition Gained.

At the election held in Wadena
Monday, for tho township of Wadena,
to vote on the proposition of the Wa.
dena & Park Rapids r. r., the bonus
was voted by Il rousing majority, the
vote standing 200 for and 43 against.
This shows the ambition of our peo-
pie to make something of our town
and country. What little opposition
there was, came mostly from he coun-
try, but we will give credit to those of
them who did vote for the bonds. land
there were quite a good many who did, J
thereby sh owing themselves to be men
OF ambition and determination, and
they will reap a rich reward in the
future, as the farming community in
this immediate vicinity will, we be-
lleve, receive greater benefit by the
building of these proposed roads, than
will the town of Wadena. But we
will all be greatly benefited, as it will
cause rush Of immigration to this
part of the country, and our town will
be built up, our country improved, ,our
enhanced in value. and our
rate of taxation lessened. The road
under the contract, is to be completed
ny the 1st of December, 1885. Some
may he done on this end of
the road this fall, but probably not a
great deal. Next winter the ties will
all be gotten out and strung along the
survey, and early in the spring the
grading will be commenced and the
work on the road pushed until com.
pleted.
