The Democrats and Dakota.

When any Democrat gets mp in
congress and objects to the admis-
sion of Southern Dakota as state
on the ground that there isn't pop
ulation enough, he is guilty of hy-
pocrisy or the grossest ignorance.
Southern Dakota has larger
population than the majority Of the
present states had when they were
admitted. For more than thirty
years not a single state admitted
has had, at the time OF admission,
enough inhabitants to eutitle it to a
member OF congress.
A ride through Southern Dakota,
over the various railroads Of which
no other territory ever dreamed at
the time of applying for admis-
sion-railroads which do more bust
ness than the roads in many South
ern srates-shows succession of
beautiful farms cultivated by class
of men more distinctively Ameri.
can than can be found in any other
part of the Union. Southern Da
kota has been settled by natiye-born
Americans in large part, and the
great majority of them are men
who served in the Union armies.
In no other part of the country is
there such intense Americanism.
such admiration for the republic
and such intelligent appreciation Of
the duties OF citizenship. The
thriving towns OF Southern Dakota
Huron, Aberdeen, Redfeld, Ash
ton, Mitchell, etc, are not like
the frontier towns Of the west, but
any one of them would I've at home
IN amy Northern state. The farm
ers surrounding them are intelligent
and public spirited to an unusual

ness in the territory. 1t is a fact
that a settler will leave his house
unlocked, though it contains valu
ables and is upon a well-traveled
thoroughtare The honesty Of the
people is remarkable.
There are nearly a quarter of a
million OF these splendid people,
whose men fought for the preserva
ton of the Union; they ask to enter
as a state; they are we'll supplied
with railroads, telegraph lines.
newspapers, and other forces Of
civilization, which most Of the
states had not when they were ad-
mitted The territory has devel.
oped as none ever has before. A
year ago the land from Aberdeen
and from Huron westward was still
unsuryeyed. To day there is not a
foot in all this area that is not
taken by actual settlers.
These people are kept ont of the
Union because they are RepubIi.
cans; because their admission will
give the Republicans two new sen,
ators. This is the only reason.
Every body knows it, If any
Democrat denies it, it is only to
give an appearance of decency TO a
refusal which is purely partisan
This is hypocrisy, and it is demon
aliziug beyond anything else. ALL
the corr0ptious that have grown
up in this country in public life,

them will, may make their otfense
