silently Burying their Frozen Wives.

silently Burying their Frozen Wives.
st. Paul P;oneer-Prees: A New York
paper of recent date contains letter
from correspondent in northern Ds.
kota, who fairly murders the climate Of
that chosen spot on the footstool. The
opening statement is: ''No one will ever
know how many peot le have perished in
this region this winter from exposure
and cold. The newspapers make insig.
ulficant mention Of the circumstances at.
tending the freezing to death of fami.
", and there il on the part of every
body manifest disposition to
say as little IS possible about such occur.
rences. Nearly every man, woman and
child in Dakota is land owner, and all
therefore, have personal interest in
keeping up the grand delusion that,
while it may be colder in this latitude
than it is further south, 'yoa don't feel
it, Men bury their frozen wives, chill
dren and other relatives and strangers
with many self comforting observations
on the mysterious dispensations of Provi.
dence, and boom their town all the hard.
er the next day." This is strongly
grass would regard as facts. Yet

taken into account as necessary to give
them their proper relation and proper.
tion. The people Of northern Dakota
have, We admit, remarkable aud per.
haps an exaggerative pride in thei,
country. Its singular fertility and pros
|perity, they probably think. should give
it immunity from the charge Of having
an inhospitable winter climate. Mime.
sofa has been compelled to bend unde,
the same cruel slander. The fact lie that
during the past winter there was q
large number Of deaths from
Exposure to the cold. But the
eastern and southern states contributed
fnlly as many as Minnesota or Dakota
It should be borne in mind that in new
country rapidly filing up with p,.ol
population, anxious to secure homes anG
competency, there must necessarily b,
much more exposure to storms and colo
than in an old settled section. The com
parison between the plains and the At
lantic seaboard in point of mortalit,
from cold, so far as the past winter
concerned, is fair stand.off.

The Elk Point Courier does not like
the actions Of the republican territorial
committee. It says;

committee. It says:
We learn, although there is no call
published yet, that the territorial repub.
lican central committee have decided on
Huron as the place for holding the terri.
torial convention to elect delegates to
the national convention, and fixed April
23d as the date. This business is being
done with good deal of quletness and
secrecy, and 1t begins to smell as though
there was Q niger in the fence some.
where. The time ID fixed at period when
the farmers are right in the middle Of
their springs work, and can't possibly
have o hand in selecting the delegates.
This is no doubt in accordance with the
wishes Of the politicians.
The Vermillion Republican has other
suepicions, which it expresses as follows;
It now seems from tie inaction of the
territorial committee that the people oi
Dakota are to have little to say about
the selection OF delegates to the Chicago
convention, and that little through what
influence they may have on the thirteen
members of that committee. That thit
committee should name these delegates
may not be without precedent, bat il
will certainly be very unusual proceed
ing. It is certainly within the probabil
ities that our people have some choice al
to who shall be nominated by the repub
lican party at Chicago. That choic,
may be the choice of the committee ant
it may not be. If the people here are 9,
foolish, ignorant, or demented, that the.
have no choice, it might be an act O
charity for the committee to take thei
place and do their work for them. Bu
it seems to US they should give the pee
pie chance to show their minds on th
question before these self constitute,
guardians Of the party in Daksta assum
the prerogatives Of the people by ap
pointing their representatives to q nj
tional convention.

Rev. j. n. MoLopey,. Death


Sioux Falls Press: The post mortem
examination revesled the fact that Mr..
McLoney's death was caused by abscess
of the liver, and not by cancer. The or.
gan was found to be enlarged to an enor.
NOUS extent, and the seat Of the disease
was located in the right lobe. the sub.
stance Of which was largely destroyed.
The left lobe was in . comparatively
healthy condition, but very much en-.
lareed by reason OF having had to per.
form for long time the functions Of
the whole organ. The contents of the
abeoess amounted to ct least gallon,
and in addition to this there was In the
abdominal cavity about the came amount
Of coagulated lymph and serum. The
examination showed that there had been
no Rupture OF the liver during the illness,
- had been inferred. but that the dis.
charge. sucoeeding the accident Of tho
1lth inst, was from the aooumulation
in the general abdominal cavity.

RIVER AND HARBOR BILL.

RIVER AND HARBOB BILL.
Washington, March 19-The river and
harbor committee of the house has com.
menced the preparation of the river and
harbor appropriation bill. After they
get it in shape. they will send for the
members of the various state delegations
and hear what suggestions they may
make with reference to appropriations in
which they are interested. It is not ex.
pected that the bill can be prepared for
Introduction in the house for at least q
month yet. The states will be heard in
order, the first hearing being in
connection with the improvements of
the rivers and harbors OF Maine. Mr..
Wright, secretary OF the Mississippi
river convention, and others, will be
heard in behalf of the resolutions adopted
by that convention.
MINIsTRR SARGENT.
At the state department it is learned
that there is no truth in the report that
Secretary FrelinRhuysen had informed
Minister Sargent that If his relations
with Prince Bismarck make his position
at Berlin unpleasant, he can be trans.
ferred to st. Petersburg or some Other
point which may be more agreeable.
Such proposition by the secretary Of
state would be extremely discourteous
and an ineinuation that Mr.. Sargent il
inefficient, or that his course has beer
unsatisfactory. Any change of that klni
would have to be based upon request
from Minister Sargent, or o compliant o
his treatment at Berlin, and il is ex
tremly improbable that Mr.. Sargent vii
ever make such complaint.
