attitude which North Dakota. and rS-
prclally Bismarck, has presented tow

been until quite recently in favor ot
admission Of Dakota into the union
without division. When The lt.gisla-
ture convened however, and it was
found that South Dakota controlled
about two-thirdS Of the votes Of both
the council and the house, and That the
minority We're in favor Of moving TIN,
capital to Pierre or some other central
point in South Dakota, as long as they
could not secure division, Bismarck

changed their sentiments and during
