DAKOTA AFFAIRS.
How Dakota Matters are FlOurishine
at Washinston-NOJ Judge Yet.

at Washtnston-NOJ Judge Yet.
Delegate Raymond came home from
Washington to spend the holidays, and
during his stay in north Dakota he was
the subject of many interviewers. He
has no expectation OF division or admis-
sion. He reports to the Inter Ocean as
follows
AS you know a bill has been introduced
for the division of the territory, the line
of partition being the 46th parallel. As
regards the admission of the southern por-
ton, the northern half preferring to re-
introduce a bill for this purpose, and as
soon as the committee of the constitution
al convention has prepared the BILL
Our people are anxious to secure the
ratification Of the treaty with the Sioux.
L think the congressional commission will
report in such way that the treaty, with
some notifications, may be ratified.
[ shall introduce bill to double the
size Of the legislature of the territory.
We now have population of $4,000.
The present legislature contains in the low
er house, twenty four members and in
the upper, twelve. This thus enables
seven men in the upper house to block leg
islation
The bill already introduced to appoint
two moreJudges for the territory will
probably pass. One Of these will be
placed in south Dakota and one in north
The attorneys throughout the territory
are interested greatly in the matter, and
they will doubtless work hard to obtain its
passage.
Mr.. Raymond also introduced bill to
provide for the election of district judges
in the territory, the associate justice, and
the district judges under this act, to act
concurrently. The district judges shall
each receive an annual salary of 50, 500, to
be paid quarterl y out of the treasury of
the territory Tbs district judges would
have nothing to do wherein the United
States is a party.
The Fourth judicial district is still with
out a judge, and the coming Lincoln coun-
ty term of court bids fair to 60 over The
president seems to have entirely over
looked the existence of such an extent of
country as the Fourth district, containing
about 100000 people, and legal business
is at a stand still President Arthur
seems to exercise his own sweet will, and
consumes as much time as Ordway, even,
in the discharge of his official duties.

PETER COOPER AND FREE TRADE.

The Greensackers Of the country seem
inclined to go with the old Bourbon party
on free trade. In the Second district In
this State, they have struck hands with the
Democrats to send a free trader to congress
TO fill Haskell's place. Few of the so-called
Greenbackers. probably, are aware of the
position held by the greatest man their par
ty ever had within its ranks-the very faith
er Of the party. Peter Cooper saidless than
two years ago, and nearly year before his
death
''Free trade with foreign nations must,
when all things have been made UNEQUAL
by the use of paper money, prove in the
future, as it has in the past, deiusion and
snare. 1t must in the future, us it has in
the past, bring panic, pressure and ruin to
untold thousands. .
After all l have said, written and pub.
iished TO the world on the subject of a tar.

give full and complete protection to the
producing cause of all prosperity, labor
labori labor.,, This can only be accom-
plished by an amount of duties equal to the
difference between the cost of days labor
In our country as compared with other
countries. The difference when examined
win be found TO be on an average. in this
country. of from 60 to $50 per cent. more
than similar days labor in other countries.
Ii viii thus be seen that the general well

cured, except by the manufacture of all

WICHITA. MCPHERSON & DENVER RAIL
ROAD.

To the Editor of the Eagle:
All the arrangements have been perfected
even to details already the engineers have
unboyed the compass and transit, the sig
nal STATS furnished and the equipment COM
plete and thorough. Last Monday morn
ing the chief engineer started to make a
preliminary-to go carefully over the route
from West Wichita TO Burton, thence to
Mcpherson and return. Whichever route
is viewed as the most practicable, after a
careful consideration of all the thousand
and one details connected with railroad
building,-such as most direct, lightest
grade Tor cheapness of construction, right
Of way, the most productive region, caicu-
lated to upbuild thriving agricultural GEN.
tiers, as well rs the appreciation of the peo-
ple-will be selected and work at once be-
gan All else that is necessary has been
done to push this road to an early compile
ton. The rolling stock. as well as construct
ing material, are already secured. The
money necessary TO build and put in first
class running order the Wichita, McPheI-
son & Denver Railroad has been fully raised
by eastern capitalists, and more than enough
been offered.
We should all lend a most cordial support
to this new enterprise, opening up as it
will to our city and county, especial, new
and ripe territory for the commercial har-
vest. To our jealous citizens who have
spared no means, who have suffered no diff
ficulties however apparently insurmounta-
bic TO stand between them and their deter
the building Of this road, our business peo-
pie and farmers owe lasting debt of graf
itude, which we trust to see repaid by 4
united and cordial effort on each individ-
uals part to render, in his way, all the as
sistsnce possible by word and act. Indeed,
why nots The possibilities OF Wichita are
constantly unraveling. They are reaching
out in many ways, and natural ones for
commercial greatness, and with this road
another rich region is brought to her gates;
while the region itself traversed is upbuild-
ing thriving towns and splendid farm lands.
Who would deny but in the near future,
Mt. Hope, with its rich agricultural region
outlying, having tine advantages this road
would secure, would not grow into the i'm
portance Of Sedgwick City or even Newton.
Here, with the st. Louis a. Fort Scott road,
the A., T. g. S. +. road, the st. Louis Il San
Francisco and the Wichita & Western road,
this new road would offer advantages Sec
ond to none of the shove already operating
in our midst, even if 1t never built farther
than Mcpherson; giving us thus, aside from
the rich country through which it passes,
direct connection with the KIP. for Denver
and the Pacific coast, As well as a new out
let via Kansas City and the east.
