The Eucampnent at Fargo.

In all essential respects the military
eucampment at Fargo last week wss =
success, much of the credit tor which is
due to the enterprising people of that
city IN the arrangements made and &C.
commodations provided for it, A more
beautiful camping ground Than Camp
Grant could not be found in the territory,
and the train accommodations to and
from the camp and city were all that one
could wish. The Argus and Republican
furnished complete and elaborate reports
morning and evening and in every res.
pect fulfilled the promise Of the mayor
that the papers of Fargo would publish

No great amount of progress has been

Use. The work actually performed IS
the completion of pile-dr,vlng on the
three bridges over the jim River between
this city and Grand Rapids, one of the
pile drivers being now at wsrk on the
ravlne just south of the Rapids. Numer-
Gus cars of lumber and piles have been
received and also couple OF cars of trucks
for moving rails. One of the small eat
ing houses built here has been located on
fiat car in readiness to 60 with the track
layers. This car also bears spikes aud
tish.plates. Wednesday twenty five
track layers arrived. and more are ex-
pected daily. As We 60 to press eleven
cars Of iron. SIX cars Of ties and q car load
of grading horses and wagons, have ar.
rived by extra freight.
Chas. Gibson is grading for long

A prominent member of the engineer
corps said few days since that unit
within q week he had not known wha
railroad company he was at work for; bu
now he did-that it was not the Northern

would see southern connection to th'

had been fondly clinging through the
weary months of nearly year. Col
Magill, the father of the defendant wai
also in court, and was noticeably shocked
by the sentence. The convicted son and
husband seemed least affected, and in
the most self possessed manner addressed
the court with reference to sending for
his attorneys, asking If there was any
motion which might be made in his be.
half. The judge Informed him that SEN
tence had been passed, and nothing re-
mained but for the sheriff to execute the
order of the court, but the court would
send baliff after his attorney, and MIR.

The political mlnd-reader of the St.
Paul Globe has turned his psychological
optics upon Col. Loilnsberry, of Bis.
marck, and discovered that IN resignine
the pcstmastership of the capital city he
was laying the foundation for something
batter. That with the eye of faith the
Colonel saw the "mene, meme, tekel
upharsin'' written upon the walls of the
presidential manson on his recent visit
to Washington, and "stepped down and
out" before the order should be given to
''go." 1t is lnsinuated that the Colonel
is not unlike Caesar in that he was ambi-
tious, and that his ambition takes hold OF
. probable United States senatorship
when the territory shall be admitted as q
whole. The Alert Is not authorized to
speak for Col. Lounsberry on the subject
and is not expert enough in mind-read-
ing to know what his desires and ambl-
ton may be- If the Globe IS correct in
its conjectures IN the matter, the Alert
would say the Colonel Is laying ropes al
rather long range, but it would be no
calamity to Dakota if 1t should turn out
to be 80 and succeed. That the territory
will be admitted as whole we believe,
and that the state will be entitled to two
United States senators when that event
takes place we know, but there are too
manV CONTINGENCIES. too MANY nOlitical
pitfalls, too many politicians on the war
path with upllfted tomahawks to admit
Of any certainty as to what particular
person or persons will hold the key to the
situation when the great and notable day
comes. Col. Lounsberry has been in pol
itics long enough to know this and to
know 1t hard, and We do no, believe he
had any such object in view. A combl-
nation of circumstances makes 1t neces
sary to shy his castor into the ring again
as political editor of the republican
school, and he is too conscientious to
held An office through the grace of an ad-
ministration which he cannot support in
his paper. That, we th,Ek, Is about all
there is in it and that is plenty. If the
territory is admitted as single state, nc
North Dakota man need apply until the
population of the two opposing sections
cease 10 war with each other, and the
population of the two sections becomes
more equally divided.

A good many farmers throughout the
northwest. particularly along the line of
the Northern Pacific, are building gran
aries of their own-in many cases money
being borrowed to construct them. The
farmers who are erecting these granaries
intend to store their wheat awhile, and
not consign the same to elevator comps-
MES, which is the next thing to selling 1t.
All farmers should have spacious grsna-
ries on their farms IN which to store their
grain. They should study the markets
and sell when there is the best prospect
for receiving the highest price. 1t Is
pretty hard for some,-even very wise
and intelligent ones at that-to determine
Just when is the proper time to market
grain. But there are certainly good in
dicatlons that wheat has not reached the
highest point, and if the supply on hand
the amount required for export, home
consumption and for seed, are any indi.
cations, they now point TO rise in thu
price of wheat, which Is certain to come
and all farmers who can will do well t
hold on to all the wheat they have. Their,
will be nothing lost by SO doing, Will,
the chances are that money will be made

J. O. wARNooK, Ed,to,

The W. 9. L. U. compllmented Gen.
Dennis on his order prohibiting the use
Of intoxicating liquors in Camp Grant at
the encampment last week. If the blank
els that covered the demijohns of fire
water and cases of bottled beer that were
brought into camp by the hacks were
given the power of speech they "could a
tale unfold" which would show that pro-
hioltory military orders like proh,bitory
legislation doesn't prohibit. However,
the order looked we'll on paper, and as it
did no one any harm it was commenda-
bic. Let it he commended.

The recently congregated hosts and
assembled wisdom Of an alleged demo
cratic party of Dakota territory at Aber.
deen made quite q splutter but did not
succeed in holding the inquest on the old
mossbacks who constitute the authorita-
tive democratic central committee as was
the covert design of the meeting. The
OLD war horses arc too lively corpses to
be ''set on' by the ephemeral satellites
OF the party who conceived and brought
forth this assemblage. The origiuators
OF this movement never discovered that
they wcr democrats until after the elec-
ton OF MIR. Cleveland and the "spoils''
OF democratic administration had be-.
come tempting morsel. The veterans
OF the party who have stood the brunt of
battle and defeat for quarter OF a cen
tury are made of sterner stuff than to
quietly surrender their places to mush-
room democrats who spring up with sue.
cess and wither with defeat. The worst
difficulty the democratic party of the ter.
ritory has had to contend with since the
election last fall has been the gall of new
converts who have come out of the ranks
of the republican party and assumed to
usurp the leadership of the democratic
party. A resolution vas introduced ten
dering the thanks of the meeting to the
terri orial and national democratic cen.
tral committees for their valuable service
In behalf OF the party. For what pur-
pose the resolution was introduced is not
known, but its effect was about the same
as striking can of dynamite with a
sledge hammer. The newly tledged DEM
ocrstic politicians vehemently denounced
Hon. NJ. Fl. Day, which disclosed the
scalp they were after In the very incuba-
tion of the convention scheme. The res
olution was LAID on the table with q
"dull thud" and the convention put it.
self on record as entertaining no thanks
Tor the service OF the territorial demo-
cratic central committee. That was
what they went there for and they did 1t.
They have thrown down the gauntlet to
the old war horses of the party and there
is blood on the face Of the moon.
