OUR GOVERNOR

Washington telegram: Colonel G.. A..
Pierce, Of the Chicago Daily News, has
been appointed Governor OF DaLo.a.
There have been great many applica nts
for this office, most Of them being sup
ported by one faction or another within
the Territory. There were also
several candidates from the outside, but
more or less opposition to all of them.
The President finally concluded to take
the matter in his own hands, and he sent
for Delegate raymond and ask him If The
appointment Of Colonel Pierce would be
acceptable. Raymond said it would be
entirely SO, and the President at once in
structed that the nomination be made out.
The announcement will be a surprise to
Colonel Pierce, for he has not been can
didate for any office, and wes not aware
that his name YVES under consideration for
any. 1t is the Presidents own personal
selection, and an expression of his con-
adencs in Colonel Pierce. No faction in
Tue leIEltOIy Cdu Cld III CIeult IOf MS Sc
lection, but he will be entirely independ-
eft OF them all. 1t is not known whether
Colonel Pierce will accept, but the ap-
pointmsnt was a hattering one. ..
Colonel Pierce entered the wer as a
lieutenant in The Ninth Indiana Iafantry.
and was soon after made Quartermaste.
Of that regiment. He was then promote d
tObea Captain, and made Brigadier Quar-
tsrnaster, For his services he was again
promoted to be Lieutenant Colonel and
Qargmaster General of Gordon Gran
gsTseorps. In 1863 he was made Colonel
ini Quartermaster General OF the Depart
nint Of the Gulf. He was made finan cial
clerk of the United States Senate in 1867,
and served until 1872, when he took po-
stion o n the staff of the Chicago Inter
Ocean, being editor of that paper from
1876 to 1880, when he became chief edito-
rial writer on the Chicago News. Colonel
Pierce is the author of several novels and
Of the Dickens Dictionary" which had
