The Bismarck Tribune becomes more

as time goes on. This is one of its recent
frothy exudations:

tion. There is no evidence of any oppo.
sitiop to Judge Palmer in southern Da.
ksta, and there is evidence that some OF
the most consistent anti. Ordwayites in
this end of the territory endorsed his ap.
plication and favored his appointment.
The question of Judge Palmer's
endorsement by Governor Ord.
way did not enter into the case, because
he vas considered to be far above the
petty bargain and sale line of operations
adopted by the governor. 1t has tran.
spired, however, since the appointment
was made, that Ordway's endorsement
for this position was of the elastic sort
stretchy enough to cover the successful
man, whether he hailed from Maine or
Texas, or any of the intermediate states
1t is fortunate for Judge Palmer that
Dakota's governor did not centralise his
affection upon him, otherwise his con
firmation in the senate would at leas,

Sioux City Journal: The Kennedy
prohibition bill, which is almost identi.
cal IN substance and terms with the
Donnan bill. yesterday passed the Iowa
house by vote of 50 to Al. All the
republicans and one democrat-J. V.
johnson, OF Montgomery county-voted
in the affirmative, Representative Curtis,
OF Plymoth, being confined to his bed by
sickness. This means prohibition, as
there is not the slightest doubt of the
instant concurrence of the senate. In
view of the frail majority of the repub-
llcans in the house, the prompt passage
OF prohibltory law is marvel It will
probably be surprise to prohibitionists
themselves, as it certainly will
be a disappointment. to their
enemies. For one thing it silences
forever all cavil and inreuendo as
to the good faith OF the republican party,
when it pledged itself last June to give
force and effect to the prohibitory amend.
ment, though 1t had failed through error
to become part of the state constitution.
The action of the legislature, further.
more, will teach prohibitionists that con.
stitutional prohibition is entirely euper-
huous. lnasmuch, as they now have pro,
hlbltlon precisely as soon and precisely
to as full an extent, as they would have
had it, had the amendment not failed
As the truitage of long, and
Ia many respects, remarkable
temperance agitation, Iowa now enters
upon the experiment of prohibition. But
prohibition on the statute book is not the
thing prohibition itself. 1t remains to
be seen how far legal prohibition will
secure actual prohibition. This imposes
new, and indeed, real and serious
responsibility upon those who are p1i.
marily responsible for the law, and al
whose instance the republican party has
enacted the law. They have now in
their hands power to the fullness of thei,
asking; it remains to be seen whether
they can make that power effective
Upon prohibitionists themselves the
logic of events low devolves the success
or failure of prohibition.

Board, composed of the Governor, Sec
retary of State, Auditor of State, At
torney General and State School Com
