Revised Land Once Decision.
Sioux Falls Press. }

Commissioner Sparks bas decided, in
the case of Chester Cranmer of McHenry
county, says the Devils Lake Inter Ocean,
that 1t IS not necessary to have raised q
crop prior to making final proof. In this
case the commissioner reverses the gen.
eral land Office. Cranmer appeared be-
fore the local land officers, according to
law, and the evidence OF his witnesses
was to the effect that the Claimant had q
good log house on his land and ten acres
Of breaking. The proof was rejected un-
der the ruling of the general land office
that cropping was necessary. The case
was appealed to Commissioner Sparks,
and he has decided that crop Is not nee.
essary. This decision will permit many
new claimants who have resided upon
their land the required period of six
months and made the usual improve
ments, to prove up this fall and winter.
Settlers who filed upon lands during the
last spring and early summer and broke
the sod for next years crsp can now make
final proof; whereas under the crop rul-
ing, they must wait until next fall. The
new ruling will be godsend to many
settlers, whe can make proof, borrow q
little money and have something with
which to purchase team and seed for
next sp1ing.

J. Q. WARNooK,
The execution of Lonis Riel the leader

IHE execution of Louis Riel, the leader
OF the insurrectlon in the North Western
Territory last summer, for high treason
against the Dominion government, oc
Cured last Monday morning. However
sincere he may have been in the justice
OF his course, he was not the mar for a
successful leader. He was zealot, rash
beyond reason, and injured the cause he
championed by the injudicious measures
he employed to secure the end desired.
For mere handful of men to undertake
to wrest by force of arms real or imagin-
ary rights from such government as the
dominion of Canada, backed by the seat
of national power IN England, was simply
preposterous and fored oomed to disastrous
failure. AS to the man Riel, personally,
he had come to be sort of a crank, and
abused the leniency of the government
that spared his life after the insurrecti on
he aroused in Manitoba in 1863. Having
twice committed overt acts of treason
against the government and caused the
sacrifice of many lives, a candid world
will hardly consider it harsh on the part
OF the government In visiting upon him
the extreme penalty of the law.

WE have received marked COPY of
the Washington Post, calling attention
to an interview with Hon. Abe Boynton,
South Dakota democratic politician,
whs had arrived in that city to inform
the administration that Hon. M. H. Day
and ''sQuatter sovereign" Zlebach only
represented themselves in advocating d.
vision of the territory and admission OF
the southern half, and in Doing so were
mlsrepresenting the democratic party of
the territory. Now that the moguls of
the party are at loggerheads in the ma
tional capital we may expect to see a
struggle that will out rank the famous
cats of Kilkenny. The democratic party
of this territory is difficult to represent on
the question, because some are in favor
and others opposed to division and side
show statehood. The representatives of
the party last year in convention assem-
bled, pledged the party IN support OF d.
vision of the territory, and Its assumed
representatives, which met at Mitchell
short time ago, declared in opposition to
the present scheme for division and state
hood. 1t is possible that if an effort had
been made alone for division of the ter
ritory it would have succeed I'd. as both
parties were pledged to support it, but
the South Dakota Ephralm was joined to
his idols of statehood, and division and
ataiehood both will fail, j.,
