Citizen and one of the delegates from Dakota to
the last Chicago convention, has returned and
claims a liberal share of the credit for the nomi
nation Of Cleveland. He says the Dakota dele
CATION was solid for him from the start and never

cfc coast he is expected to stop at several towns
along the line and the citizens propose to inter
view and try to pursuade him that when wheat
is down to seventy cents, they cannot afford to
pay fifteen and eighteen cents bushel to have it

Col. Lounsberry, who makes this statement,
may have special information, but Col. Domains

of the Dakota ozone in the atmosphere: ''Col.

given him, and especially by the alleged likeness
and narrative given in of tho New York po-
lice sheets, Of the highly colored incident of his
separating street fighters at Washington The
incident upon which it was based was not large
enough for the structure, and the bishop claimed
no credit for his part in it. On his recent visit
west the bishop went as far as Medora, Marquis
de More's town, where the marquis is building
church for his employees. He also visited Ex-
President Hayes farm and viewed his 800 acres
of wheat that promises twenty bushels to the
acre. The bishop is greatly impressed with
north Dakota the more he sees Of it.
