In the st. Paul Pioneer Press there
have recently appeared letters from Da.
kota upon the political situation which
have q decided leaning towards the
Ordway side of the question and towards
the cause of the capital gang. AS these
letters were written during the period
of recent missionary-trip made by the
editor of the Yankton Outlook, there is
q something more than suspicion that
he went away from home, to place in
print opinions which might clash with
his business interests if advanced under
q Yankton date. The suspicion receives
confirmation in letter under Sioux
Falls date, wherein the writer says: '.The
postmaster editors, noticeably here at
Yankton," &c. 1t was slip Of of the

writing about matters "here at Yankton"

full of early day "reminiscences of Sioux
Falls as an egg is of meat. He was
camped on the present site of the Cat
aract house in the summer of 1862, with
military company of forty men, de.
tachment of the first Dakota cavalry, and
as stated in personal paragraph yester.
day, morning, was afterwards, in com.
pany with Q. K. Howard, post trander at
this point, therefore the pioneer business
man OF the metropolis to which he is to-.
day paying a pleasure visit.
During an entertaining conversation
with him yesterday he rehearsed many
items OF interesting local history of the
early days of our city. He was here at
the time Judge Amidon and his son
we're murdered by the Indians in
corn field north of the city. The
firing was plainly heard by him as he
was sitting at the lower fall in the river
fishing. but thinking it some of his men
hunting ducks In the slough, gave no
attention to it. But about 10 O'Clock
that night Mrs. Amidon came to his tent
and reported the absence Of her husband
and son. expressing fear that they had
fallen victims to the treachery Of the
Sioux. At that time those here knew
nothing OF the Minnesota massacre.

II there is any truth in the reports
atloat regarding the management of the
Dakota university, that Institution
should be made the subject of legisla-
tive investigation during the coming
winter. The university is an institution
in which all Dakotaians feel commend
able pride, and if it be true that the
methods employed In its conduct are such
as to eventually develop adverse critl.
cism, those methods should be unani.
mously sat down upon. 1t is we'll known
that Ordway imported president for
the university from New Hampshire,
displacing worthy and capable Dako-
taian for no other reason than that he
wanted the place for the New Hampshire
man. With New Hampshire man as
president, New Hampshire man as
superintendent of construction and q
New Hampshire man as president of the
board Of regents, there is room for the
suspicion that an enquiry would not be
ont of place. 1t is said that the
president OF the university is paid
a salary of $4,000 per year
when the statute specifically
provides that such salary shall not ex-
ceed Sl,50o per year. It is also stated
that one of the regents, during the past
year, has been paid q thousand or twelve
hundred dollars for his services. The
university act provides that the regents
shall receive no compensation except for
actual expenses incurred in the perform
ance Of their official duties. We give
these reports as we hear them, and they
come from a source which entities them
to some consideration. If there is any
thing wrong in the management of this
young educational institution, the wrong
should be stamped out and the university
purged of the talnt of Ordwayism which
hangs about it.
