It is getting to be dark day in State politics when. State papers are brought and tied SO that it is impos- sible to have the views and senti ments of the people in regards to the public acts of state officials. Col. Jacob Frolich and few others are trying hard to break the backbone of the Little Rock ring that has so long and successfully (to themselves manipulated affairs at the state capi- tai. Because he will not bow down nor submit to their views and &C., tions, which has been proven are detrimental to tho State, they hatch up schemes and lay snarcs to throw him; while one of his competitors, who is the principal leader in this monied organization, is allowed to obtain his office, and use nancy upon his "pets," and otherwise SOW ''seeds of kindness" out of which should be the states receIpts, but gre confiscated by the ring Searcy Enterprise.

 Farmers through planting. Wheat and oats look well. =. Cut worms doing a great deal of damage.
 So much has been said about the B. of F. that 1 am almost afraid to say anything for or against them. But 1 think that if the B. of F. stuck together they will do great deal oi good or harm one. 1 claim to be q Rof F., and I DO think we poor farmers ought to have our rights. and have laws enacted that will be to our interest. We are the founda- ton of all commerce, and when we stop all trade and business stops. don't lay any blame to our county officers, for 1 think we have as good county officers As any county in the State. Now, if the B. of F. get the majority in the State, if they cant make few amendments to the con stitution we had better have no laws. We claim to be brothers of freedom but we are not free, and will not be as long as such laws exist. We do sot claim to have the worst men Tn tue United States, but we have few men running the State, and we need no Vaudcrbilts nor Goulds, but we need honest, laboring men. The whole republic is governed to q great extent by monopolies, and ruled by few men. We have honest men in our state that would do all they could to remedy matters but l am afraid they have been overruled and sat still because there were some smarter men in the legislature than they. Now, B. of F. do all the good you can and as little harm as possi ble, but don't claim that all people gre dishonest but the B. of F. Give Me al justice if it is due him. But hardly think any is due him. ...l see several communications from different lodges in the DEMOCRAT, aud all seem to be prosperous. Would like to hear from others.

A correspondent of the Ozark Sun,

A correspondent of the Ozark Sun, referring to the Brothers of Freedom, offers the democratic farmers sound advice in the following;
 What good can come of opposing the democratic party2 There are but two parties. In the one, all dem aorats; in the other, all republicans. Why leave the democratic partyf How will you get better oflicerss You must get them from one of the two parties. Ifyou are true demo- crat, and do your duty to yourself and your party, you can select just as good officers in your democratic convention as you can in your lodges. Can republican utilization assist you in selecting officers? Will they make better selection jointly with youy
 For my part l love to see the farmers unite upon all the great ques- tions affecting his agricultural inter est. These movements, thus used, are wise, praiseworthy and good. This earnestly believe to have been the object Of many democrats. They have not and will not disavow their democratic faith and principles.
 Who are these men who are now so disinterested, yet who insist that brothers ticket won't hurt the democracy? recall once more the dark and shadowy days of recon structlon, and now l look out upon the troubled waters of '6S '69 and ITO.

The Huron Times says: ''Division without
admission is a battle cry which appears to
satisfy a great many Dakota people now.
The tendency all over the territory is 10 con-
centrate efforts on the separation project,
and say nothing about admission until the
other is effected. Il is not seen why there
should be objection at Washington to the d.
vision of so large q territory If the people all
want il. With this accom- lished it would
be easy for the south 10 bring al its ener-
gies TO bear upon the admission OF a state
of that section. Ii is believed that its efforts
and the growing sentiment in the country
in favor OF granting conceded rights, would
in = year or two secure state hOnOrs- By
that time the north, with over 200, 900 popu-
lation, would be ready 10 come in and ii is
not believed that anyssbstacles can long ex-
clude it when the legislature meets, if there
is not encouragement from Washington that
division will be secured at this session
provision will be made for organiziuga state
in the south, and it will keep up such kick
ing at the door that it will be hard to keep
it shut.
The Columbia Dispateh SAYS: Wilson did
not carry single county in the territory,
and in Logan. Stark and Mercer counties he
did.not get single vote. This shows well
for Dakota from Republican standpoint, but
it puts black eye on division and admis-
sion by Democratic congress.
This department insisted before the cleo
ton that ii was bad policy to cast one sided
vote, aud that there would surely be Dem
ocratic congress TO face. II required no gift
Of prophecy to see that, whichever party Sc
cured the president. The claim that nothing
was meant by the vote, and that II won't be
repeated, requires the exercise Of too much
faith Tor practical politics. or course the
stupid majority will not be given again, but
the only satisfactory evidence would be q d.
vision OF the senators and congressman as
sured and fixed before admission.
The Mitchell Capital observes: Division
OF the territory is the one thing on which
ninety-nine per cent of the inhabitants of
Dakota have their hearts set upon. And the
general disposition seems TO be to keep ham
mering away at it until II is accomplished.

This is certainly peculiar transaction. Il

SlnbOrn is the only county that has made u o

says: The canvassing board OF Sanboru

members handed down to pOsierity as the
checklist set Of men the territory has ever
yet known. The board met, eauvassed the
returns on the legislative and county seat

and adjourned. The county records were
duly transferred TO WOOnsOcket, and the
board re-asSembled at that place for the pur-
pose OF completing the canvass. II was tnen
discovered that in order TO count in a certain
pet officer the vote Of WOOnsocket precinct
must be thrown out II was done accord
