Sioux Falls came near experiencing a
disastrous confag grafton on Friday Of last
week, and nothing but we'll directed
efforts on the part of firemen and citizens
saved the entire business portion of the
city from total destruction. The Cata-
ract house was the scene of activities, the
fire breaking out in the cornice and tow
or, and for time it looked as if every
thing would 90 to ashes. A heavy wind
from the north prevailed, and amid blind
ing smoke and scorching flames the fire
men forced tn emselves into the garret and
finally extinguished the fire. Had the
fire got away from the Cataract general
conhagration would have been the result,

The supreme court of dakota territory

The supreme court of dakota territory
has affirmed the legality of the capital
commission act, and Bismark is CORES
pondingly exultant. When Judge Ed
gerton's decision was made in this case
last fall, rendering judgment of custer
against the commissioners it was gener-
ally conceded he would be sustained by
the supreme court, but an entirely differ
cnt phase of the matter now appears and
more complicated state of affairs will
doubtless be the result. Immediately
after the action OF the supreme court i'll
reversing the decision of the lower court,
an appeal was taken to the supreme court
Of the United States, and Yankton peo-
pie claim this estops the removal of the
capital to Bismarck until the ycxed ques-
ton is settled by that court. Judges
Hudson, Palmer and Church assentcd to
the reversal, Judge Edgertop dissenting.
At Bismarcl; big blowout was in order
imme liately after receiving the news,
special dispatches stating the people were
exultant at the 'victory of Alex McKen-
zie, and were patiently waiting for his
return when the largest reception ever
held in the territory would be given him
and Governor Ordway for what they had
done for booming Bismarck. 1t seems
unaccOuntabIv stran ue that Aley Mex en-
ze should be accorded so much praise tor
the decision of the supreme court, when
he was neither attorney or Judge, conse-
