MINNE,OL4,. GLORY.

II is with no small degree of pride that the
people Of Min ucsota learn Of the success of
their state in competing with other states, as
well Us nations, in the great internaiioDal
exposition at New Orleans. The GLOBE this
morning publishes a full list of prizes
awarded this state up to this time, from
which it will be seen that Minnesota leads all
the states Of the Union, both in the mum Der and
the grade Of its prizes. The wonderful thrift
and invincibie enterprise Of our people, as
well as the productiveness of our soil, could
not be hcralded to the world in better light
than has been done by the display made by
the state at the Exposition. 1t will now be
understood that the severity OF our winter
climate is no bar to the progress Of the state.
All hail Minnesota and her glorious record
as q producing state.

Mr.. Stone said in reply to question
whether the railroad company was aski ny
this session of the legislature for an additional
grant Of swamp lands, that while per-
haps If the company had such a grant it
might be able to extend its line to the Cana
dian border ON the northeast, he did not
think it would make any effort for such an
extension, or that it could get it if it did; nor
did he think such road could be built with
out it. The Duluth 81 Iron Range Railroad
company would, however, ask this much Of the
state at this session. viz. That it be put in
the same position as all other land grant rail-
road companies in the state are as regards
the selection of their lands. And he thought
IL would be granted as a simple matter Of
justice to company that has in good faith
expended in the state during the past

INsURtYCE LEGISLATION

The present session Of the legislature has
the distinction Of having two bills under dis
cussion forbdding insurance orgauizations
from transferring suits at Law from the state
to federal courts. One, in the House. pre-
seuted by Mr.. FOSTER, includes telegraph
and railroad companies in its prohibitory de-
mands. Tue other, presented IN the Senate

insurance corporations. Now, without at

As BETWEEN A. Z. BoTKIN and z. A.
KBEIDLER in their contest for the marshal
ship of Montana there is no line OF dislinc-
ton to be drawn on the question of fitness.
The charge Of habitual drunkenness pre-
ferred by the emissarics of CrOsbie naturally
excites popular sympathy for BoTKIS, who is
a paralytic aud high minded gentleman
whom the allegation does gross injustice
His friends know full well that the charge
made upon the exparte investigation
OF an agent OF the administration
cannot be sustained. The grLvAmau
OF his Offending was his anti
ARTHUR and anti-CROsBIE crusade antelLt-
ing the last Republican national convention,
resulting in the compromise by which Col.
SAUSDERs went 10 Cliclgo as the BLAINE
delegate and LEE MANTLE As the champion
OF the ARTHUR faction.
While it is TO BE- deplored that so honorable
a ceutlema n Us Mr.. BoTRIN should be sac
rihccd In his reputation to factious hate,
some cool may yet come out OF the claslfing
Of conflicting party interest In the territory.
Montana will conc into the Union In the
next two years as u Democratic state, and
Mr. BJTSiS will be gratided 10 see a sound
Democrat in the marshal's Office after the

YESTERDAY was emphetically ladies' day in
the territorial Legislature at Bismarck and the
floor aud galleries we're radiant with fair lou
byists. the occasion was the female suif-
rage bill in the assembly. Members We'd
with each other in ordtorcal flights pro and
con on the mOmentous issue. But the chiv-
alric champions triumphed aud the bill
passed 80 to Is, very decisive vote. A
canvass of the council leads TO the cOnclu-
sion that the bill Will pass that body and be-
come law, for perish the thought that the
gallant Governor PIERCE would apply
the mild correction of veto to the
measure. WOman's acknowledgements meets
with more favor In the territories than in the
states, and it is not so singular IN the ter
ritOries, where so many of the men are bur-
dened with domestic duties, their apprecia-
ton of the fair help mate is stimulated into
activity and they would recognize her in the
walks Of political as well as social life. And
it must be admitted that us Wyoming aud
Washington territories, where the ladies have
been vested with certain masculine privi-
leges. they have exercised the privilege with
sound discretion and to the beiterment Of
political and social conditions.
