Sorth,restern Notes.

tory has been a resident when appointed,
but there is = change expected
Mr.. Lsndeuist was elected Mayor Of Cas-
selton last week, over w. H. Ellis, Of the
Cotrisr. The latter had q fattering vote, but
was deemed too fresh settler.
Catching muskrats for their skins is quite
business in some sections. In Clark county
A. A. White has taken in 800, aud expects
to make it 1900 during the winter.
The bail storm that destroyed his wheat
proved good thing for john B. Stone near
Onsho in Barnes county. He had the grain
insured, and the adiuster came along when
1t was sevsnty-six cents bushel.
John II. Rish, railroad man at James
town, who was taken to Illinois on requisi-
ton, charged with forgery, has been found
entirely innocent, aud the charge is believed
to haYe been wanton and malicious.
II the lady in one of the states who is re-
ported to have had triplets twice within a
year will cOme to Dakota choice lots in al
most any of the ambitious towns will be ten
dered her as an inducement to locate.
Wyatt 81 Scott, New York parties, came
out in October aud secured 500 acres near
oiats, in the North, which they are fixing up
for model stock farm. Il is believed that
stock will pay handsomely in any part Of
Dakota.
The suggestion Of a Minneapolis sheet,
that Dakota should boycott Missouri mer-
chants on account OF i'll ivised statements of
its senators, is not g.nerally regarded as
worthy of great political community. The
Fargo Argus ridicules it as boys play.
DR.. Robertson, physician Of large practice
and considerable eminence in Michigan, has
come 10 Mitchell 10 locate, on account of the
superior healthfuluess Of the climate. It is a
little singular that doctor should want a
healthy climate, but his own health was at
stake.
The Minnewaukon paper has very elaborate
reports of the condition and actions of the
Racket woman, Who attempted suicide but
is likely to recover. She is evidently de-
meuted and imagined that Der husband or
stepson were plotting against her life.
The Devils Lake bsteI--Oceat reaches the
conclusion that the Manitoba railroad will
not 90 beyond the satanic city for at least
two years. This will, it is claimed, give the
place ample time to come up to the high
rolling ground where it cannot be injured by
not being terminus.
The Sioux Falls LeIder wants the Republi-
can senate to refuse 10 confirm the
appointment of Democrats to Office until the
Democrats allow Dakota to be divided or ad-
mitted. 1t is not believed that the zeal of
Republican senators from the moss growing
little states in the east, will take them to that
length.
The railroad managers, or some Of them
have replied to the petition of farmers for
reduced tariff on wheat that they can afford
TO give lower prices, but do not deem 1t ad-
Fisable this season as more than three
fourths of the grain has passed out of the
hands or the producers and reduction now
would benefit the elevator and middle men
almost exclusively, aud think the share of
these classes has been ample for a hard sea
son.
1t is coming TO be believed that the county
seat wars are chiefly paper and wind and that
the danger of real shooting to hit people and
make work for physicians, ana widows and
orphans, has in no recent instance been
llarmingly great. The threats have been
mainly inspire by bad whisky, and would
only materialize on continuous supply of
the vicious inspiration. The governor may
have been warranted in calling out the mi
litia In the Redfeld case, but that he has
doubt about it is shown by his refusal to do
so in Roberts when the trouble seemed quite
as threatening 10 the peace. There have been
scores of contests of this sort in Dakota, but
it is not remembered that much blood has
ever been shed. But just now they are doing
much damage 10 the territory abroad.
