Obituary.

Departed this life, January Sth, 1855,
Leslie b. Felix, eldest son of +. NJ. and
Mary A. Felix, in the 18th year of his
age.
In chronicling the above sad an
nouncement, | cannot fOrbear to add
that tribute to the memory of the dear,
dead youth, which his many noble
qualities of heart and mind commanded
Leslie Felix in all the generous inn
pulses and manly qualities, which Ken
tuckians admire, was indeed an exem-
plar to the youth of his community.
Brave, yet tender; manly, but modest :;
aspiring, but nursing in secret
the rising hopes of his bouy
ant nature; he wrought on and hope;,
ever; the one all-absorbing thought of
his existence for the time seeming to be
how he could best make home comfort
able and happy, and how best tighten
the burdens of his invalid father and
loving and adOred mother. OF all
Leslie's many virtues, and they were
numerous and conspicuous, the bright
est and now the most precious in the
recollection of his stricken parents and
dOting sister, was his filial affe elton
subordinate only TO the tender love he
entertained for his sister Lizzie.
In Leslie's death is verified i'm a
striking manner the truth of the Oft
repeated assertion that Death loves a
shining mark" The death of this
noble boy has thrown his neighborhood
into tears, and fraught with heavy
sorrow the hearts of lately happy
family, to all of whom we tender our
sincere and HEARTFELT sympathy, for
we know how irreparable is their loss.
Hoping that his soul is enjoying that
repose which his virtues deserved, we
can only add: Peace 10 his ashes.

The Speartish Register in referring TO
the constitutional convention election
very properly says ''It is vitaly inn
portant that full vote should he east.
AS upon it will largely depend not only
the representation we will be entitled to

which TO compute our population and
give the lie in an emphatic manner to
such statesmen (?) as Mr.. Vest, who
held that We have not Sufficient popula-
ton to entitle us to admission AS a state.
and that we do not want division. The
delegates to this convention should be
selected without regard to party or
politics. They need not be politicians
bred. but should be men Of good judg-
ment, clear minds and firm convictions.
The convention ought to have no politi-
cal tricksters or ambitious, selfish, would
be statesmen in its ranks. Let US see 10

Through the kindness Of Mr.. Van
Devort we are allowed to gather the fol-
lowing items of interest from private
letter received by him and written by
W. III. Fox, of the grocery firm of May
& Fox, Chadron under date of the 2Sth
ult:
FRIEND VAN DEvoRT About one
week after you returned everything
seemed lively enough but from that time
10 the present business relapsed into a
state Of complete nothingness. The
railroad to build toward Chadron before
loading goods, they are delivering
freight 90 miles west Of Valentine. Ex-
pect to be in Gordon in Is days. The
town site Of Gordon has been laid out
but lots will not be sold until the cars
roll i'll and then to the highest bidder,
50 rumor has it. The town site locators
have been in Bordeaux, nine miles,
some time and have been expected here
daily. AS yet no one knows what land
the railroad company can get, or rather,
will get here. Many think they will
buy the old lady's tree claim, others that
they will buy Morgan's, and still others
that they will GO across the river. Moth
ing definite. Valentine, Of Crook City,
has been here and will start in with
Youngloye, l think they will carry a
general stock. Il. G. Lake has been
here and left for Chicago. He will put
III bank as soon as possible. In con-
versation with him he told me some
bits Of information he had gained from
the president of the n. w. X. K. 1t is
their intention TO make this their trunk
line and they are laying an extra heavy
rail and making first-cass road bed
with the idea Of running fast trains and
through connections to the Pacific
They expect to make division at this
point and throw into ii all the energy
that makes up railroad town. The H.
& NJ. will build here on the way to the
Black Hills and it seems as if Chadron
might become quite railroad center
Lake is careful enough not TO undertake
a failure and from his conversations east
/ think he is well satisfied with this
point. He SAYS he Intends to ft up
nicely and make a substantial bank, he
will run it himself. Bulldogs are going
mp daily not vithstanding too manyspells
of wet weather and already you will
need a pocket compass to find your way
home at night.

Dakota Affairs in Washington.

Journal: G. l.. Wood returned to
Rapid City by Northwestern coach on
Monday morning after an absence of
some weeks, a portion Of which time he
spent at the national capital. He in
forms us that the weather was pretty
warm there during his stay, and that
nearly everybody whose business does
not require his presence in the city has
left to remain away during the summer
months.
Speaking Of the Dakota governorship
Mr.. Wood expresses very decided
opinion that there will be no change for
some time probably not until fall. He
says that it is stated in Washington that
q brother to Governor Pierce, resident
in Buffalo, is an old time friend and sup
porter of Cleveland, and that some peo-
pie believe the president may be in
duced to keep the present governor in
his place. When questioned as to whom
he considered the strongest Dakota can
didate for the place in case Governor
Pierce should be removed, Mr.. Wood
said he believed that Barney Caulfield
will have the best chance in the race.
He has very wide acquaintance with
congressman, has strong endorsements
from many men who served in congress
with him and from many democratic
members of the present congress, while
he is on terms of the closest intimacy
with a number Of the leading demo
cratic senators. Were Governor Pierce
removed Mr.. Wood is quite confident
that Mr.. Caulfield would be named in
his place In case no vacancy be made
in the governorship. he believes Mr..
Caulfeld can bring enough influence to
bear upon the administration to secure
any other position in its gift he might
desire in the territory. Mr.. Wood is of
the opinion that there will be few re-
movals made from federal Offices in the
territories for considerable time. As
for the condition Of the land Office case,
he says the removal order is merely
suspended, and the matter will proba-
bly, come up for hearing after a while.
There is no doubt Mr.. Caulfield has
been able to do great deal for Dead
wood in this matter.

DEATHS


DIED, at her home in this county, on the

daughter of Mrs. j. Montgomery Bean, aged
6 years and months.
Death has again entered this happy little

rude, resistless hand of death robs us ofour
richest earthly treasures

noon spent in company with little Elsie;
her sweet voice, with that of her little bro.
TIERS, seems 70 ring in my ears tonight
"To know her was but to love her, il true
indeed. She has gone TO join that happy
band on high; she cannot come back TO ils,
but We can go to her.
Little Elsie fell asleep after only a week
and two days suffering. She seemed at
times delirious. The day before she died
self, when suddenly she raised her voice just
as loud and clear as she was ever known to
do before, and sing these words
ayes, my names written there,
On the page white and fair,
In the Book of Thy Kingdom,
Yes, my names written there"
She then appeared to sleep for awhile.
Again she appeared delrious, when she was
heard to sing, but not as distinctly as before,
these words;
"We shall come rejoicing,
Bringing in the sheavcs.'
She was laid away April 9th, 1885, to
await the resurrection morning. The hymns
indicated above were sung at her funeral,
