Dakotas chances for admission are
little better during the present congress
than formerly. We predict compro-
mise with the popular demand bya di-
vision, simply, without admission. The
Democrats can hardly avoid noticing our
claims to this extent at least. Then again
il will satisfy that notorious hunger
bg placing at their disposal the offices OF
two instead of one territory. And again
they can scarcely ignore this statistics OF
population and area of the sections on
either side OF the 18th parallel. An ex-
animation shows there are only eight
states in the union with greater area
than South Dakota, viz: Texas California,
Minnesota, Oregon, Kansas, Nevada,
Nebraska and Colorado, and only nine
state at the time of admission contained
more population, which were Massachusetts,
Maryland, Virginia, New York, North
Carolina, Maine, Wisconsin. West Viz

JUDGE SMITH

The man OF supreme, rich unadult, ra-
ted gall is Judge Seward Smith. This
carpet bagger aud politician, who held an
Office OF city attorney in Des Moines bs
combining in peculiar way the temper
ance and whisky vote in his favor, was
appointed Judge Of the fifth judicial dis
trict of Dakota. A change of adninistra-
tion produced change in his Office a little
over yeer after he had possession The
people, however, endeavored to treat him
fairly and showed what they thought be
was worth by elocting him judge of the
5ih district at recent election. In'er.
views held with him since his deposition
as Judge, published in the st. Paul papers
showed he was uncertain whether he
would MAKE his home in Des Moines or
Dakota. Suddenly he concludes the peo-
pie Of Dakota would like to ha, o him for a
u. :. Senator. He comes to Huron, an
nounces himself candidate for senator
in opposition 10 such men u Moody.
Edgerton and Campbell, men who are the
veteran movers in the Dakota Statehood
movement and who have lived in Dakota
from its infancy; who in point of intelli-
gence, ability and all the qualifications
that go TO make United States Senator,
are as superior 10 this decsepit species OF
presumption from Des Moines as Darwin
,s 10 his ape. This would-Le senator is.

offensive TO heaven. His excuse for de-
posing I. NJ. Wilkins as clerk of Hand
county, was As mean, low and contempti-
BILE as anything be could do Presnming

But for his own inordinate ambition he
paints Wilkins lurid in circular which
he sends broadcast over the Territory He

Tsmplenan writes 1t is the laughing stock
of both houses and that be fails - find a

Judge Smiths friends consider he is
slightly demented. IL tins Is true, il

about man who wanted to sell me dog

"The police had y whole hours work to

Strawbridge 81 ClOtIier's Quar-
terly.

Among the current magazines none will
held the atenton of the ladies longer than
Stra'cbridge g Clothier's Quarterly, the Sum-
mer number of which is Just issued Both
in illustration and contents the present
issue well sustains the justly earned reputa-
tion of this ladies' magazine. j. T. Trow-
bridge, the wcll-known American author,
leads off with a short story, called, "The
Ladies' 'Yts"-which is a response that
many young ladies are ready to make under
similar circumstances. The varioue sub
iects Of interest to ladies come in for due
share Of attention. Outside of Summer
fashions that are treated in the usual
gossipy style at great length and with
many illustrations, the most summery
things we noticed in turning over the pages,
were directions for making ice. cream and
water-ices The homemade article, made
under the very explicit dircctiouS here
| given, may taste just as good as the pro-
iessional aticle, but will the young ladies
think SO ?-never 1t makes one thirsty
even to read of the many delicious drinks
for Summer that are only waiting to be
compounded according TO the formula
| given. Necdlewomen will find matlels of
interest in framework, plated work, cord
work, and wild rose border; also in the
continuation Of the dictionary of stitches
The useful articles on the pclerue cape,
homemade underwear, and hygenic dress,
are relieved by decorative articles OH fan
painting, wOrk-stand and baskets. s,fa.
cushions, cuflee-cUsies, hand-screens, etc.
! Ine house " ile can learn how to preserve
fruit as well as how to wash silk and satin.
and to remove the many strains that fabrics
are subject to. Johns Wife continues to
record her ney-making experiences; th's
time it is raising squads; and if it is all
true-whch we suppose it to be-thcre is
money waiting for every suburban subscr!-
Der. There is colored frontispiece of art
needlewnrK designs, from the Royal School
of Art Nccdlcwork, the directions for which
are given in the magazine; as well as direc
tions for the five garments, the diagrams
for which are given on large Supplement-
The summer music is very appropriately n
song with II coquettish turn called, 'ITnIess
Chat &c my Mind" 1t is easy and catchy
and is of class that is not yet oyerdone.
The foregoing constitutes the literary part
of the magazine, to which is added eighty
illustrated pages of patterns, styles, and
prices of household and personal dry goods,
This inventory will give the unfortunate
who lives too far off to visit Philadelphia as
often as desired, change to make intelli.
gent purchases from the pages of the book.
