The phamphlet on Dakota, prepared
by Governor Pierce, is one of the most
valuable works on the territory that has
been sent out to the public. It is replete
with most valuable information in re-
gard to every section Of this great north
western empire. It gives figures and
statistics in regard to every county, and
is a document that can be sent out into
the east with good. In preparing this
little book Governor Pierce has done a
good work. In preparing it he had the
assistance of his private secretary, 0. W.
Holt and many of the most prominent
citizens of the territory, the services of all
of whom he most gracefully acknowl.

Letting Wars Out by Contract.

No fight of Mr.. Barnu1n's genius ever ex-
reeded the audacious scheme of an English pill
manufacturer, who sends 10, 900 copies of g.
handful to Gen. Wolseley, and offers $3.50 to-
the first soldier who nails one to the door of
Gen. Gordon's palace in Khartou1n. The en-
te,prising piller declares that he is moved by
patriotism in making the offer. The idea is a,
good one and might be expanded. Who was
the London halter who years ago offered to
capture Ell Mahdi and fetch him to London
On the payment of a certain sum G. O. D.,

ng. =
Money does everything nowadays. and
there is no obvious reason why the wars Of q
nation should not be let out by contract.
Stanley found Livingstone and overrun Cen
trail Africa, not as warrior but as news
paper reporter. Why should not half
dozen Zig dailies combine to capture Ell
Mahdi? Why should not the proprietor OF
all illustrious soap contract to keep the Nj
nili:ts III order, to quiet Ireland, to settle the
treaties in Madagascar? Why should not
some patent medicine man contract to run
Mexico for term of years, to collect her
revenues pay her debts, and hang her revo-
utionists! The war of England with Egypt
could have been far better managed by q
private firm, proceeding to specified end on
business principles In fact. few busne-s
men manage so stupidity anything committed
to their care as great nations generally do
their treaties and their armies.

The editorial correspondence which
Major Edwards sends daily to the Fargo
Argus from Bismarck, will form a pretty
complete and racy history of the present
legislature. The major works with a
thoroughness that is commendable. The
worst blow that was ever given to Fargo
and Cass county was his defeat two years
ago, and majority of the people over
there have about come to that conclu.
sion. It is what Napoleon would cal
stworse than crime; it was blunder.'

The trade dollar ought to go-it ought
to be forced to go. Its coinage was a
piece of folly. It kept constantly and
painfully before the people the difference
between the market and legal tender
value of silver. The trade dollars have
gone out Of the hands of the people at a
discount and are in the hands of spec
ulators mostly, who want the govern
ment to tako them off their hands at a
profit. They never pretended to be any
thing but bullion, and they should be SO
treated to the end.

is strong probability that he would be
lynched,

In discussing the proposed insurance
Legislation, the Chicago Inter Ocean says:
s.The news Of what constitutes q good
measure to swell the lobby seems to
travel fast. Last winter bill was in
troduced in the Iowa legislature prohi-
biting all insurance companies doing
business in that state from transferring
suits-at-law from the local tothe Federal
courts. The measure was easily de-
! feated, but perhaps not before the sly
members of the legislature and their
brethren at other state capitals saw that
it was distasteful to the self respect of
insurance managers generally. The re-
suit is that this winter the same idea,
duly embodied in formal bills, has al
ready bobbed up serenely in at least five
western legislatures, with several state
capitals yet to hear from. The unthinking
citizen and reader will naturally suppose
that during the past year the insurance
companies must have been devoting all
their spare time in getting themselves
sued at law and then trf nsferring the
cases promptly from the state to the
federal courts. But according to the
best information attainable this is not
so. In the five legislatures in question
in whish this measure has recently ap-
peared, those of Illinois, Minnesota, Colo
RADIO, Nebraska and Dakota, there are no
such reasons for it's introduction. The
fire companies have had few if any suits
brought against them in those states,
and the life companies none at
all. But the crafty legislator either
guesses they are going to be sued again
some time and that they then deeply
plan to hoist the cases from the no.
toriously impartial and incorruptible
purview of state juries to the dangerous
dockets of the federal courts, or else he
is anxious for the personal society of
their agents at his state capital to con-
vince him otherwise. But the level
headed insurance committees and the
main body of their associates in the va
rious Legislatures, can probably be
counted upon to tenderly choloform and
send to painless death all such pro-
posed absurd enactments.'

Keep the Cellar Warm.
New England Farmer.1

A cheap and very effective way, to raise
the temperature in q cellar that is danger.
ously near the freezing point is to set one or
more common kerosene lamps, on the cellar
bottom d ring the daytime, when not
wanted for lighting the rooms above. We
have all noticed how much warmer living
room is in the evening, when the lamps are
burning than in the daytime with the same
amount of fire in the stoves or furnace. All
the heat from burning lamp is retained III
the apartment. Twenty-Five cents worth Of
kerosene oil will throw out surprising
amount Of heat, and in many cases it would
be the cheapest means for keeping cellar
from freezing during the passage Of an extra
cold wave.

Down in Central Dakota the people
are hot even to color that is red. The
Big Stone City Herald expresses it as
follows: "We have never regarded Cen
tral Dakota as unit in territorial topog-
raphy until within the past six months,
and only then as an adjunct of South
Dakota. But developments of late have
proved that it is very important, and
should be a very Independent factor OF
territorial politics. The fact that it
Yields the balance of power in the legis-
lature gives it an identity and weight
worthy of consideration. Heretofore,
this portion has been treated as desert
between two fertile regions; the unknown
between North and South Dakota. Since
the organization Of the territory, no ap-
propriations for public purposes, no
public institutions have been granted
this section of the couHtry between
Brookings and Lake counties on the
south and the Pacific railroad on the
north width of just two hundred miles,
and across the territory to the Missouri
and beyond. Nor within this vast region
cas- citizen been appointed by COVER
nor to any position Of trust or emolu-
ment under the territory. We had hoped
without having to state our grievances,
that this state of things had come to an
end; but no sooner is public institution
asked for central Dakota than Mr.. Petit
grew objects and expects to get the South
Dakota members to assist him in oppos-
ing it. They think a compliment OF in
stitutions in cantral Dakota will be an
argument against division, and when
divided will have the power not to give
us anything at all. We hope the men,
bers of the Seventh district will assert
their rights, division or not division, and
throw off this tyrannical censorship OF
the south. They should stand united IN
favor of Mr.. Kennedy's bill or whatever
any of them want that is right, and prove
to the world that central Dakota is not
a vassalage but sovereign people, and
that it's name be written with a big 'C'
lust as much as ''South'' or "North'
Dakota is written with big letter. If
sectionalism at all, why not through
Out?'
Bismarck weekly tribune., 1885-02-20

YESTERDAY the senate had under dis
cussion the labor bill, which originated
in and passed the house. 1t prohibits
the importation under contract of foreign
labor. The bill is just measure and
one in the interest of independent Amer
can labor. It should become law and
the law should be strictly and rigidly
enforced. The importation of the of
securing of other lands under contract
TO 90 to work in the coal mines
and in other fields of labor, has already
wrought great harm and is an evil which
should be at once prohibited by the
strongest and most effective kind OF a
law. What prospect this bill has of be-
coming law at this session of congress,
it is impossible to say but 1t
ought to take precedence over any
other measure before that body. This
cheap foreign contract labor has been
brought into this country and wherever
Il has been set to work, it has proved a
blight and curse. It has driven out
honest American labor from different
fields of industry. It has ruined large
community in the Hooking valley, Ohio
and brought on conflict there between
capital and labor that has threatened
more than once to end in 'bloodshed. It
is useless for capital, in it's wild and soul
less greed to attempt to crowd the labor
ing men of America down to the level OF
European pauper labor. Capital has for
years had the benefit of a high protec-
tive tariff-now let our own American
Drawn, sinew and brain receive like con-
sideration at the hands of the law-making
power. Let justice be done to both capi-
tai and labor, and neither given an un-
fair advantage over the other.

Dakota Press on Woman's Suffrage.
Press and Dakotan: The woman snf-
frrge measure now before the Dakota leg
islature finds supporters in that body and
may become law. A few years ago
similar bill was before the. Dakota legis-
lature and for the joke of the thing the
wags of the house passed it through that
body, in the belief that it would surely
be killed in the council. It was finally
defeated in that body by one majority,
and after some lively missionary work by
the funny men of the house.
Bad Lands Cow Boy: 1t looks now as
though women would be granted the
right of suffrage in Dakota. There is but
little opposition to the bill and it seems
as though the majority of the legislature
are in favor of it. On account of the
crankiness of the leaders of the woman's
rights movement the subject has always
been matter of mirth rather than
serious one. Practical experience has
shown, however, that women are as we'll
qualified to vote as men and we hope to
see the measure pass.
JAMESTOWN ALERT: Those who op-
pose this movement are throwing them
selves in front of the wheels of progress
in the onward march of civilization.
England, though monarchy, which we
teach our children to look down upon
from our tower of liberty and advanced
government, gave women the right to
vote at municipal elections years ago,
and statistics snow that they exercised
that privilege in equal proportion with
men. Fifteen years ago Wyoming terri
tory invested it's women with the right
of ballot and agree that the experiment
has been successful, and that the riot
and rufianism, which so often make the
polling places in both states and terri
tories farce and burlesque on civil gov
ernment, are unknown there.
The jamestown Capital enthusiastic
cally supports the bill, and the Fargo
Argus, whose editor is one of the most
fa--seeing men in the territory, and is
quick to .'catch on" sees DO good reason
! why the bill should not be passed.
Bismarck weekly tribune., 1885-02-20

COUNCILMAN AUSTIN, of Ransom county,
has done some good work in the council,
which his constituents will appreciate.
There have been several bills before the
legislature on grain grading and trans l'
portation. Among these were the Oliver
bill, which passed the house, and was
sent to the council, and the bills OF
Messrs. Smediey, and Jones, introduced
in the council. The substitute bill winch
was reported favorably on by the com
mittee of the whole yesterday and is q bill
to create railway commission, contains
all the good features of the bills above
named and especially those of the Oliver
bill. Mr.. Austin has given the most
strict attention to this measure, and 1t is
largely due to his efforts that the bill is
now in it's present shape. It can be said
Of him that he has been faithful to his
trust. The bill in it's present shape will
probably pass both houses and become a
law. While Messrs. Smedley and Jones
are deserving of credit for the part they
have taken in preparing this bill the TR1-
nuNE makes mention of Mr.. Austin from
the fact that Mr. Oliver, the champion OF
this kind of legislation in the house, Is a
member from Mr.. Austin's district and
the bill which he introduced in the house
suited the people of the Red River valley.
tt is therefore something to the credit OF
Mr. Austin that the main features OF the
Oliver bill haue been retained in the SUBJ
stitute bill; which is better than any OF
the original bills introduced.
