The Bismarck delegation to Washing.
ton has finally developed its plan aud
that plan is just what the Press and Da-
kotaian said it would be when word came
that the delegation was moving on the
seat of government. The following tele.
graphic correspondence gives away the
scheme. 1t bears date at Washington,
the 22d inst:
1t is understood that the delegation
| recently arrived hers nom Dakota have
in view the passage of bill to legalize
the removal of the capital of Dakota to
Bismarck. A member of the delegation
said to-day that such q hue and cry had
been raised against the removal by the
people of southern Dakota that he
thought the matter should be promptly
settled by congress. This would render
unnecessary any further action by the
territorial court. The decision already
rendered declared the action of the com.
mission was invalid, aud any future de-
cision of the higher court could be set
aside by congress, which has plenary
power of the territorial courts. The
matter was discussed among the men,
bers of the delegation to-day, and while
no bill has been prepared for the purpose
indicated, it is understood that one will
be, and that it will be plae ed in the hands
of some member for introduction in the
house. 1t is SAID that Delegate Raw.
mond does not wish to introduce the bill,
as he is unwilling to be identified in con.
gress on either side of the controversy,
If the bill is introduced. the whole matter
now the subject of litigation in the courts
of Dakota will come up before and be IN.
vestigated by the committee on terri.
tories, to which the bill will be referred.
The whole scheme is about to be thor.
oughly ventilated, aud will assume ma.
} tional interest.
Fearing to trust their case to the
future action of the courts, or to the peo.
!, pie. these conspirators now propose to
carry the ill-begotten scheme into the
halls of national legislation, where they
may hope to lobby it through by the
3 free use of money. The bill they seek to
pass will never become law upon its
J merits, because it possesses no merit. il
