This amendliSent, it is belielel, will
tend largely to prevent fraud.
So far as Dakota is concerned the pill.
if it becomes a law, will have little eff
feet, because, compared with the whole.
there is very little government land
lett. But had such a law gone into eff
feet a few years ago it's results would
have been of great benefit to our terri
tory. The presumption law was q bid
for speculative fraud which has filled
our courts with profitless litigation.
1t afforded the outside public an oppor-
tunity to secure farms at. low prices,
not to occupy and till and develop, but
to hold in an ~uadeveloped state for fa-
ture profit. SO long as this land is to
lie idle it might better be in the possess
sion of the government than in thepos-
session of individuals who will not use
it. The timber culture act is all right
in its intents, but these irtents are not
carried out for various reasons not nee
essary to mention, because they are
well known.-Press 81 D%akotaian.

Giving the Women a Chance.

NtAeSAASSs
The famous University of Oxford
has now followed the example of Cam
bridge, London and othergreat English
universities in permitting women to
secure all the advantages of the highest
education. They are not yet allowed
the same prizes as the male students
but this will doubtless come in time.
In this vital matter of the higher Gull
ture OF women, the English universities
are far ahead of Harvard, Yale, or Co.
lumbia in this country, which is a hui
initiating confession for an American
to make. The Methodist Conference
that met in New York recently decided
by a vast majority not to license wQm-
en- to preach or eXhort. They may
minister to the sick and suffering, but
they must not occupy the pulpit. 1t
will be remembered that the govern
ment OF the Methodist denomination is
confined to the ministers, the laity hay
ing nothing to say in regard to church
affairs. A conference Of ministers
ought to be unselfish, just and public
spirited; but practically the Methodist
Conference is a trades union of pastors.
In action they are just as unfair and
selfish as are doctors, or bricklayers.
They will not permit the competition
Of women, if they IA help it.

When to Cut Wheat.

49, A.-.t' N
Soon the Whea4 harvest will be- ready
fer the reaper. The loss,o If much grain
by Smelling will be the penalty Tor al
lowing the grain to stand until it is
dead ripe. Asto the quality Of the ker-
mel, the Germantown Telegraph re-
marks: cit Should be remembered that
wheat is composed Of gluten, starch
and bran. Gluten is the nourishing
quality Of the grain, which makes the
flour stick together in the hands of the
baker, and gives weight to the grain:
and there is the greatest quantity Of
gluten in the grain just when the straw
is yellow two or three joints from the
ground, the head turns downward, and
when you can mash the grains between
the thumb and finger without produc-
ing any milk. 1t may, therefore, be set
down as an indisputable truth that ev-
cry day the wheat stands after this
stage Of ripeness the glutea decreases
in quantity and the bran increases in
thickness, and thus diminishes in val
ue. In fact, from a number Of careful
ly noted experiments or tests made by
intelligent farmers, as to the results
between early and late harvesting of
the wheat crop, decided advantages in
favor of the former have been clearly

Caricatures of 1860.

A merchant of this city has been ex-
hibiting in his store windows some well
preserved cartoons Of 1860. The great
Ell number, perhaps, are attempts, more
Or less successful, at %ridiculing the
principles and leaders of therepublican
party, and several were produced after
the nomination of the rail-splitter. The
people who stopped in passing to look
at the pictures could not but see that
these relics tell against the democratic
party. Much that was good wit once
can hardly be appreciated now, the
events of the tW%enty-four years have
been sc different from what the artists
could have foreseen.
If the clever men who We're carica-
turing Abraham Lincoln could have
looked ahead five years, their fingers
would have been paralyZed, the pencils
would have fallen from their clutch.
One cut portrayed the republican lead
ers and agitators entering a mad-house,
and at that day the enthusiastic party
raised up to break the chains of bond
men and unite the fragments of the
state, did seem to many who lacked
that insight which faith and courage
confer, and which is often better than
political sagacity, a host of heretics and
lunatics. The party has apparently
reached a less heroic stage; but impor-
tant history is sometimes made in a
very Cu,et fashion.-Syracuse Stand

The Real


Despite the dismal prophets the out
look for the futureis hopeful. Wehave
an immense and fertile country, and
our people are eIterprising and labori-
GUS. Since the beginning of history,
no nation has been so happily cireeum-
stanced'a as ours. There is 20 danger of
foreign war, and we have re roya! fam
lilies or armies and nayies On which to
waste our substance. Our machinery
for production and for utilizing the H.
tent wealth Of the country was never
in so efficient condition. It is natural,
therefore, for Americans to be bulls,
that is. to lock on the hopeful side of
the business sitlation.-Demortst's
