Iowa newspapers have decided
opinions against the appointment of
commissions to perform legislative work.
Regarding one of the acts of the Iowa
legislature, the Omaha Bee says:
If tho Iowa legislature had been wise
enough to Keep out of the crazy prac.
tice of appointing commissions or boards
to do its work, tho state would have
been spared the disgraceful quarrels
which DR.. Kulp's removal from the asy.
lum board has caused. 1t was clearly
the business of the legislature to locate
the insane asylum itself. 1t was clearly
not its business to shift that work onto
the shoulders of others. The members,
who were too timid or too lazy to per.
form the duty, have themselves to thank
that Others have not done that duty we'll

Arthur appears to be gaining ground
IN the presidential race and his enthu.
s'astic supporters go 80 far as to claim
that he will be nominated on the first
ballot. There is doubtless much truth
IN the claim that many delegates who
have been checked off for Blaine are not
very anxious to cast their votes in that
direction. There is little of the old time
enthusiasm among the followers of
Blaine. The business mems movement
in New York in behalf of Arthur will
strengthen him before the country and
altogether it looks as though he is in the
lead.

During the present week Governor
Ordway will complete the four years Of
official existence to which his commission
entitled him. flor no other reason
than that quiet may be restored to a
territory which has been distracted by
his peculiar methods, the people will
hope that he may be relegated to private
lite without any delay. There has been
four years of experience which Dakota
has no desire to again encounter-four
years in which the people have been
compelled to stand on the defensive
against various forms of corruption and
defend their property against an official
ring which seeks absolute control of all
public matters. We can we'll dispense
with the services of governor who keeps
the territory in constant turmoil
through the accumulative avarice which
is the chief characteristic of his makeup.
Dakota needs governor who will once
more restore public confdencs-a Cover.
nor who is far enough above suspicion
to be implicitly trusted-a governor who
will stand between the people and the
corrupt rings which assail and plumber
them. The president owes it to Dakota
to do this much in its behalf.
