rSnecial TELEGRAM to the Globe

QUINCY, H., July Ebay City defeated
Quincy to-day by score of to 2. Foley and
Daniels were the battery for the home club, and
Porter and Bignell for the visitors. Bay City
made but two and Quincy five, two of
which let in three runs for the visitors. Neither
club earned run. Keenan,, the umpire who was
protested by Grand Rapids at Peoria, umpired
the game to the disgust of the audience and Bay
City as well. The work of both pitchers was
remarkably fine, but only five strikes were called
during the entire game.

CAPT. oMERRIIMAN FOR CONGRESS-.
The Democratic convention for the Fourth
Cong ressional District which was held in this
city yesterday, was marked by degree OF
harmony and earnestness which augurs good
results in November. Instead of the strife
and Pickering which marked the Republican
convention, there was but one voice and that
in favor of Capt. o. C. Merriman of Mime
apolis. The selection of Capt. Merriman is
one which commends itself to every citizen
regardless of political preferences. Not one
word can be uttered against either his
public or private record and
in him the Democrats present a candidate
without bemish. He is a gentleman of
ability and broad guage, who will serve
every portion of his district with the utmost
fairness and impartiality. He is a candi-
date for whom all fair minded Republicans
can vote and thus most practically rebuke
the outrageous proceedings which placed Mr..
Gilfllan in an Illegal manner upon their
ticket. The Republican element not repre-
sented by Mr.. Gilfllan. can be very sure
that their only hope OF political existence in
the future lies in the election of Capt.
Merriman.

Statehood and Division.

Pierre Signal: Statehood and divis-
ion in Dakota are most significant
terms. They mean what? That Da-
kota is a vast territory. four hundred
miles long, three hundred and fifty
miles wide and contains over 96,OOO,OW
acres of land: that she has a popula-
ton approXimating thous-
and which is nearly equally divided by
the 10th parallel Of latitude; it means
that the interests Of the people Of the
territory would be enhanced by the
division of the territory, and that each
half would then have a population suf-
ficient to entitle them to the rights of
statehood. Divide Dakota on the 18th
parallel OF latitude and either north OF
south Dakota will have a population
larger than many of our states had at
the time they were admitted.
The great trouble with territorial
government is, that it is to primitive.
1t fulfilled the requirements of thirty
years ago and might yet be practicable
for some years to come in Alaska or
the Indian territory, but Dakota ought
not be harrassed with such antiquities.
Our people are progressive and, we be-
]ieve, civilized. They were born and
raised in the east under a benign and
liberal municipality, where they were
accustomed to have some voice in say
ing who should WELD the sceptre Of
state. But how different the change
when they get here. How belittleing
to think that we must sit with folded
hands and bow in s%uppliance to who
ever the authorities at Washington see
fit to send to our capital chambers.
How strange it seems to be living in a
country where every thing is free but
the right Of sufferage. Territorial gov
eminent! Bah! With such relics in Da-
kota where people are attracting the
world with marvellous progress and de-
velopement! We might better go to the
garnet and bring forth the Anticipated
loom, covered with the dust Of half a
century, or revert to the candle dip for
our luminary than to endure much
longer the pristine influence of our ter
ritorial system, Four hundred thous-
and active people of Dakota are clam
oring for division and admission and
the right of suffrage which belongs 10
an American people.
The treasury has suspended the issue
Of one and two-dollar notes pendingan
appropriation to enable the printing OF
more.

Great Britain Lends u a Ship.

Washington, Feb. Exchanges have
recently been made in the character of
the Greedy relief expedition, from the
fact that the British Government has
rendered to the United States the use
of the steamer Alert, and the offer has
been accepted. The Alert will proba-
bly, be brought to this country by Lieut..
Commander G. 7. Goodrich, United
States Navy. She is a steam vessel,
and was specially fitted out for Arctic
explorations. She was the advance
ship of the Mares expedition of 1875.
She is much larger than eitherthe The
It's or the Bear, the vessels purchased
for the Greedy expedition, and will car
ry about as many men as the two COM
bined. On account Of her size she will
be used as a supply ship, and will fol-

The enlistment Of men will commence
in a short time in Boston, New York,

The School Township Corporations
of Dakota Territory offer their seven
per cent. semi-anual, eight-fifteen-year,
coupon bonds, in the denominations Oh
five hundred and one hundred dollars
the proceeds to beused for building and
furnishing school house. They can
create no other form of debt. The or
ganization of the townships and the
guards of the law upon the bonds rem
der the security superior 10 district
bonds in every respect.
Each school towlship is a municipal
corporation for school purposes only.
They vary in area from thirty-siX to
eighty square miles, and their organi-
zation is rlgiGly guarded. The cleo
tions are all under the general election
law. with regular polls and secret bal
lots; the returns are made to The Coun-
ty Clerk, and the qualifications of the
township officer are fled in his office.
Nc officers can act until he is ilnoWn'
OF record to be duly qualified. There
are no corporate or other subdivisions
Of these school townships, but the
members of the board Of each are chos-
en- at one poll by the voters; the bonds
are voted upon in the same way. Due
notice OF the bond election is required,
and the returns of the election are made
to the County Clerk aud evidence furn-
ished Herewith that the election was
held according to the notice and the
law. The bond being signed by the
proper officers OF the township, the
County Clerk certlfies the regularity Of
its issue in all points. by his signature,
under the co%unsy'seal, and registers it,
and the law than says: "The validity
or obligation of any such school bond
so registered and certified shall not be
questioned in any court o%rtripunal. out
every s,4ch bond shall be and remain
binding"
They are a lien upon all the taxable
property of the township: provision is
made requiring the County CLERK to
levy a tax sufficient to pay coupons and
bonds if neglected by the township;
redemption is clearly provided for: the
amount of bonds is reasonably limited;
courts are authorized to levy the taxes
it default occurs; careful provision is
made for beginning actions and max
ing service, and the law requires cou-
pons and bonds to be paid on presenta-
ton without auditing and also strictly
requires the treasurer always to reserve
and apply sufficient funds from all
other payments to pay the interest and
principal of these bonds. The bonds
may be made payable at any financial
agency in the United States.
We unhesitatingly commend these
securities for safe investments. Upon
application of any savings bank, trust
