WIND AGAINST STEAM.
Fun on the Frozen Hudson-An Ice-Yacht
Against tho Express.
IT, Vinton Blake in st. Nicholasl


EE. Vinton Blake in st. Nicholasl
"There is roar and rush behind
them. What nexts
Tho down train! The boys look over
their shoulders as the big black mon
ster shoots past. The whistle blows
sharply; there are handkerchiefs way
ing from the windows. The ice-yacht
is just now holding nearly across the
river.
"'A race! a race, boysn cries the
skipper, as he gives quick turn Of his
hand, and with sheer and a spring
they are off after the train.
"Now the race-the race, boys!
Steam against wind! How they fly!
Everything is blurred and melted to-
gether and indistinct. The ice is all a
blush white haze, with that diamond
sparkle from the runners blazing up.
''The windows of the train are filled
with heads; they seem to shout at the
party on the ice-yacht, who hear only
the rush and roar of the wind and the
runners. The wind increases; the boat
rears higher; the windward runner cuts
fiercely through tho air, and the
crushed ice tlies in shower Almost
up with the train, now, and creep
ing on!
'Will the wind hold? But never fear;
this is no flaw, but a steady gale. 1t
seems as if the black train were slowing
up; yet not is the yacht which is
uying faster, literally on the wings OF
the wind. And nova crack in the Ice
ahead.
'The skipper rises himself and scans
the ice with eagle eye. An old hand at
ice-yachting is he.
"We can do it, think, he says.
Now, brave 'Rondina!' And the
train sees the crack, too: the cars seem
alive all their long length with heads
and gestures and warning shouts. Do
they think everybody is asleep there on
that light, flying, teathery wanderer'
The upper edge OF the crack is higher
by full six inches than the lower; and
between swirls the black, treacherous
water. They are upon it.
"Whiz!-Splash!-as the edge-ice says
and the runner catches the cold tide.
There is a wild, tremulous swing and
and the crack is far astern. How the
train cheers. And look, now, the black,
snorting engine falls behind! Wind
against steam! Give them three cheers,
boys, and swing your caps, and hold
fast while you are about it, The track
is clear ahead; the locomotive whistles
and snorts and shouts in wild salute at
the yachts victory. Faster-faster-till
there is only the ring of the runners,
the roar and rush of the wind, the
tremble and leap and swing and sway OF
the wayward craft"

great many in bewiIdering state Of per-
plexity whether to impugn his motives or

great many in bewildering state OF per-
plexity whether to impugn his motives or
accept his reasonings as logic. His rea-
sons for vetoing the bill are entirely artiti-
cial, some points being thin as guaze. lie
claims that the territory has a contract
with the citizens of Bismarck and the
Northern Pacific railway company, and SO
long as we remain a territorial sovereign
we have no right to revoke that contract.
The Yankton Press calls his attention to
the following section Of the organ,ic act:
"And at the first session of the leglsla-
tive assembly, or as soon thereafter as it
may be deemed expedient, the governor
and legislative assembly shall proceed to
locate and establish the seat of govern
ment for the territory at such place as
they may think proper; but such place
shall thereafter be SUBJECT to be chdmged
by tie gorernor and legislatire assembly"
How Governor Pierce can overlook this
section is more than the common mortal
can understand. Not only does his views
seem purely artificial and manufactured
for the occasion, but his actions are decided
ly Inconsistent with the promises he made
to the people of Dakota at his first appear
ance in Yan&ton but a few months since.
At the time he said
"In few months the legislature will
assemble and the people will have an op-
Dortunity to make their wishes known in
this matter.
| must act solely on what find before me
upon the law as it stands, until altered by
the legislature or the courts. y y
| still wish it understood
that | have no plans to push or theories
to adrance against any competent author
ity which may direct me to modify or re-
verse my action. am the subject OF the
law. Let the lau and the people rho
make the lac cypress clearly achat they re-
quire me to do and shalt cheevuly obey.
He requests the 'people who make the
law to express clearly what they require,
and l shall chcerfully obey" By this
veto he not only squarly backs down from
his promises of faireness, but assumes a
position in fiat contradiction of the law
outlined in the organic act. OF one thing
the people of Dakota may rest assured
Governor Pierce is not consistent. Or an
other feature they may rest tolerably as
sured. He is unfair. Hc also bucks the
organic act. Is Governor Pierce the jewel
some people would have us believe.

Grover Cleveland's cabinet will stand
great deal of comment, not really because
of the eminent fitness or dominant unfit
ness of its several members, but because
Of the diversified phases surrounding the
lives of one or two who are now councilng
with the president of the United States
as to ways and means for the success or
failure of the administration. For in
stance in 1885 the United States has
secretary of the interior who less than
quarter of a century ago was leading an
armed and organized army against the
very nation he now represents, having
been called as it were to an important po-t
sition in the nations council six weeks af-
ter he had disgraced the United States
senate by calling jeff Davis, the arch-trai.
tor, patriot. This man Lamar is just as
heartily in sympathy with the rebel ele
ment to day as he was twenty-five years
ago, and he misses no opportunity to pro-
claim his views as regards the patriot
ism" of jeff Davis and his followers.
The Lamar pill is hard one to swallow.
In regard to some few members of the
cabinet there is cause for real qualification
over President Cleveland's selections.
The appointment of Villas as postmaster
general and Bayard as secretary of state
could not have been bettered, these gentle
man having distinguished themselves as be-
ing better than their party. As secretary OF
the treasury the clustering Dan Manning
will have chance to redeem himself from
the odium attaching through his hyper
bolical rawlings few days after the last
election. Mt which time he said "all the
powers in hell couldn't prevent the inaug-
Grafton of Cleveland As it was yet un'
settled at that time whether the state OF
|. New York had gone for Blaine or Cleve-
land, the vaporing Of this man Manning
were little previous, but as secretary OF
the treasury he may do better. A stormy
time is predicted for President Cleveland
and Ills party, and every move and action
of the democratic party will be just as ex-
actingl, criticized as though we were on
the eye OF another presidential election.

With the fourth of March came the end
of Delegate Raymond's term as delegate
to congress from Dakota territory, and
the introduction of another representative
in the person of Hon. 0. S. Clifford Of
this city. Mr.. Clifford, who has spent
part OF the winter at Washington, return
ed last Saturday afternoon, after putting
in several weeks gratutious service on
the floors of the lower house and in the
various departments. His interest in the
welfare of Dakota's needs has already
caused the gentleman to spend a winter
at Washington before his term actually
began, and there need be no fears but
that Dakota will be represented not only
ably and persistently, but that he vii.

opening.

The Governors veto of the capitol re-
moval bill will not meet with great deal
of approval down this way, and we feel
that Mr. Pierce has finally reached the
time where all is not roses and honey in
the administration of Dakota affairs. The
removal bill passed both houses by good
round mWorities. and, although charges
were made on both sides that bribery was
being practiced, it is generally be-
lieved that its passage was secured
through entirely honorable means. The
rather peremptory policy adopted by the
governor in his veto is one that certainly
will bear great deal of scrutiny and COM
ment, and South Dakotaians can feel but
decidedly dissatisfied at the action of a
governor, who less than six months ago,
was so profuse in his declarations promis-
ing to abide by and act with the majority.
The bill provided for removal to Pierre on
or before May l, and was supported by
all South Dakotaians excepting Wagner
and Bowdle. Councilman Huetson and
Representative Helvig voted for the bill,
as did Mark Ward of Brule county
