IDakota.

Southern Dakota proposes to get into
the Union this winter. She has organized
a State Legislature, adopted a State con-
stitution and elected United States Sena-
tors. These Senators will soon appear in
Washington and demand admission to the
Senate.
southern Dakota, it is claimed, has a
population that is sufficient to justify ber
admission as a State. II this claim is
we'll founded there is no good reason WHY
she should not be admitted. 1t ought to
be clearly shown, however, that her popu-
lation Is as great as it is represented to be
before Congress takes any steps for her
admission. There has been disposition
to let Southern Dakota wait awhile for
two reasons. First, because OF the doubt
about the number OF her inhabitants, and
second. because of the existence of GER
lain bonds which good faith required
should be provided for before any part OF
the territory became a State.
If these reasons no longer exist there
may not be much opposition to the ad-
mission of the new State this winter. II
is probable that Nevada had the required
number of inhabitants when she was ad-
mitted, but it is very doubtful II
she has now. Nevada is largely a
mining State, and when her mines declined
her population decreased. Southern Da-
kota, however, is an agricultural coun.
try and her population is certain to in.
crease steadily.
OF course the admission of Southern
Dakota will increase the Republican ma
jorlty in the Senate, but that ought not to
be accepted as reason for refusing hei
what she has right to, and doubtless will
not be.
Southern Dakota is very much larger
than the State Of New York and is des
tined to be one of the greatest Of thc
! Northwestern States.

Militia Bills.

The annual cony aution Of the National
Guard Association met in Washington
last week and occupied itself chiefly with
discussing the question as to the kind Of
legislation that ought TO be asked Of Con-
gress for the militia. A stronger effort
than ever before is to be made this winter
TO get an appropriation for militia pur-
poses, and il is probable that it will be
successful. The two bills that were before
the last Congress. which dealt with
militia matters, were known as the Slocum
and Sewell bills. The Slocum bill, Of
which Gen. Slocum is the author, provides
for an annual Appropriation of 100000,
but couples with il conditions which
make it rather unpopular in some Of the
States. The aim OF these conditions is,
however, good. II the bill should become
law, and its provisions should be car
ried out the militia would become a well
drilled and very efficient organization
within a few years.
The SewelI bill. which was passed by
the Senate last winter. also appropriates
100000 for the militia, and while it care
fully regulates the method of distributing
VIC ulOhCsS duu plONtuee iudL OluuduCes
ordnance stores and tents purchased
with government money shall belong TO
the government, it does not require an
nual inspections by State and Federal in
spectors. rife ranges, and State camps, as
the Slocum bill does.
Because the Sewell bill permits the
militia Of the different States TO DO with
the appropriation pretty much as they
please it is likely that it will meet with
more favor than the SlOcum bill. There
is another thing in its favor. 1t is thai
having once passed the Senate there will
| be little or no difficulty in passing it
again. By getting it before the House
early in the session the chances of its be-
coming a law this winter would be
! greatly increased.
There is very general desire all over
the country that the government shall
grant aid TO the militia, but military or.
CARNATIONS don't want too much Federal

want assistance, but they are not willing
to make too many sacrifices to obtain it.

He found himself once more
The aspirant for many prize

His schoolmates all around him pressed,

But still he felt his youthful zest
For toll or sport was gone.
The lessons that were easy once
Were now more hardly done;
He felt himself the very Ounce
That he had called his son!
The biunders that he made Of old
He now avoids at will;
