SAVANNAH, Oct. 22.-kditOr MOrRinG
NeagS: l was arrested on the streets Of
Savannah yesterday noon by a city de-
tective for selling goods without license,
marched up to the Mayors office and
compelled to take out one weeks license,
when the CITY authorities must have
known that the drummers' license was to
be abolished that night. Now | have no.
thing to say against city requiring IL
cense, but. under the circumstances, |
think they should have called off their
detective on the day when the Council
was to meet to decide this very law. They
made me pay 80 license when l was to get
no benefit from it. To say it looks ''small'
hardly expresses it.

Dakota's delegate in congress, passed east

good move to call convention of North
Dakota, to be held at Fargo or jamestown
early in January to consider the question
of the division of Dakota. He proposes
that representation should be apportioned
to the several counties on the basis of pop
ulation-giving one delegate to each organ
lied county and one delegate additional for
each 500 Of population. This would form
convention Of about $50 delegates. If
such convention should adopt resolutions
strongly for division of the territory and
admission of South Dakota, he thinks it
would not only be of service to him. but
would tend to promote good feeling be-
tween the sections.
