The Stnte Gnrrr,,,,ent.

One Of the special needs of state govern
ment IN Dakota is set forth by the De Smet
Leader in this. In our present condition,
every dollar used for the support of schools
must be raised by direct-taxation In these
days of poverty, when every nerve must be
strained and the most rigid economy prac-
ticed to secure a foothold, the burden of tax
alton falls with terrible weight upon the
struggling settler. Our people are heroic,
and it would be hard to find in the whole
broad territory a man who shrinks from
shouldering the load, or admits for moment
the possibility of getting along with fewer
schools. But however good tbs will may be,
the ?ower is lacking. We have not the abil.
ity TO sustain schools sufficient in number or
quality as long az we have no public school
fund to draw upon. In every Dakota town.
ship there are 1880 acres Of school. lands,
some Of which has already become very val
liable; but not foot OF it will ever be avail
able unless we become state As long at
we remain a territory we must be handi
capped by the burden of heavy taxes, and the
rising generation must suffer the conse,
quences of insufficient schooling in most O.
the country districts.

Embarrassment of Walker, Judd and
VeaZie.

1t has been well known in business circles
for some time that the firm of Walker, Judd
d Veazie, located at Marine Mills, Washing
ton county, but with offices at St. Paul, were
financially embarrassed. In order not to
precipitate a business disaster, as the
firm was endeavoring to tide
over until they could dispose of
some of their property, the papers agreed not
to mention the matter unless public assign
ment took place. The GLOBE kept its agree
ment, but the Pioneer Press grossly violated
it yesterday morning by publishing a state
ment that the difference is they will
assign. They have not done so yet, but NAV
do so to-day. They claim $500, 900 assets to
Sl3l, 900 of debts. When they do assign, If at
all, the GLOBE will announce the fact. II

knocked him out in the first round. and after

emulation is very plainly indicated, yet it is
free from bitterness or envy, and when diff

bic or anger. As an evidence Of the friendly
competition existing among the states is the
following:
KING CORN VS.. KING WHEAT.
Nebraska and Minnesota are side by side
in the government building, good naturedly
showing to the world their respective and
leading products. Nebraska has adopted the
motto Corn is King" and is making 4
magnificent showing Of her products in that
line. Minnesota is equally magnificent in
her wheat show and its products, for which
she is so famous. Seeing Nebrasks's gor-
geously wrought motto in corn, Minnesota's
poet indites the couplet:
'Corn is klner' That savings old
IL is the wheat that brings the goldri
Nebraska responds:
"Come In kinf.'' That sayings old
