THERE seems to be sort of Siamese
ligament binding lrreverence an1s democ.
racy together. Whether it is freak Of
nature or an inexorable law Of affinity We
will not pretend TO say, but we are in
cllned to the latter opinion. The subject
is suggested by rca Ting an article in the
Democrat at Valley City on the church
fight in progress at that place which the
irreverent editor, Vallandigham, desig-
mates as the "holy war" One of the
ministers is under bonds to keep the
peace on complaint of the other minister
that he feared death or great bodily injury
at the hands Of the first, and the other is
under bonds to the grand jury to answer
the charge of interfering with public
worship, but that does not justify the
irreverent manner in which the editor of
the Democrat refers to the case. II the
Alert had been guilty of such an irrever
ent expression the :'Ironsldes" and "Mon.

THE threat made by sou,hern member
of the legislature TO revive the capital re-
moval scheme Is perhaps nothing more
tnan tie prawilng OF an agltalor who
imagines that he is earning the money
he rccrlves from the government by vir-
tue OF his position in keeping alive
senscless and sectional strife over set
tied question. The people of the terri
tory have had quite enough of this boys
play and damphoolshness on the subject
of removing the carital, which at best is
nothing more than town lot speculation
with perhaps s'divy' in it. The people
of the territory are not only satisfied with
the capital at Bismarck, where a good
building is provided without expense 70
them, but we believe large majority are
opposed to removal at their expense, as
it will be the next line it is moved. The
removal Of the capital rleans tax upon
the people of from 100000 to 5000, 900,
and town OF speculation to some syndi-
| cate of schemcrs, and that is all there is
| in it, Tbs Dakota legl stature has some
little reputation left for honesty and re-
| gard for the interests of the people, but
| if they engage IN another wrangle over
the removal of the capital they will be
hopelessly bankrupt in these virtues IN
the estimation of sll fair minded men.

SOME of the members OF the legislature
might save fragment of reputation in
introducing bills by stating and having
it go on record that such and such bills
are introduced "by request" They
would better give the bill away than ex-
pose themselves to criticism. For in-
stance, when bill is Introduced to change
county lines, state that it is presented by
request of whatever townsite company
originated il; or, when instigatcd by a
railroad company, give the name of the
railroad, and the name of the railroad at
torney that drew the bill might be casu.
ally mentioned. 1t IS not necessary to
state what sin cidentals" accompanied it.
These can be inferred by the constituent
of average perceptibilitles, and it ls not
necessary to take up the time Of the leg
,slative body IN which the bill may be in
troduced ny furnishing an invoice of these
details or their present and prospective
value. These are mere matters of private
concern, but the bill itself is subject Of
public interest. and it would often faclll-
tate proper understanding of its object
and purport to know where and by whom
it originated.

THE SOUTH Dakota SIDE SHOW.

Among the worst uses to which news
paper can be applied is that of mislead
Ing the people on subjects of public in.
terest, and especially misleading those
whose interests are affected by the decIp-
ton. Local squibs and amusing non
sense are usually harmless and well
enough in their place, but tue editorial
depar .ment of any aud every paper, how
ever small and Insignificant the sheet
may be, Is rightfully expected TO be re
liable when supporting to give facts upon
any question The opinions of the editor
are only opinions, and as such are worth
Just what his reputation for judgment
makes them. There is an excuse for
mistake IN judgment but none for mis-
stating facts, unless he IS led INTO 1t by
incorrect or false information.
A three-line paragraph in the editorial
| column of the Valley City Times makes
the following misstatement of fact: "The
bill making the South pay for its con-
stitutional convention has passed the

that the territorial auditor, upon certifi
cate of the presiding officer Of the con
ventiou, shall issue warrants upon th'

'CORRINNE, Feb. Il, 1855.
EDIroK AIERT:-The young folks of
Corinnc and Durham in order to profit
by the delightful winter weather which
we are enjoying here instituted series
of weekly entertainments to be held at
the different residences in this vicinity
during the rest of the winter. The third
of the series was held on Friday evening
the 18th inst at the residence of Mr. 4.
F. Horn, the obliging postmaster of Dur
ham. About thirty persons were present
who enjoyed the hospitality of Mr. Horn
and his accomplished wife. The fore
part of the evening was spent in singing,
games, and friendly social conversation.
O'Clock after which the devotecs Of Terp-
sichore repaired to an adjoining room
where they tripped the light fantastic,
until the "wee sma' hours of morning."
MIR. H. being a jealous Sunday school
worker was not much in favor of dane
ing at frs! but when the enchanting
strains of the viollns pervaded the atmos-
phere of the spacious apartment he for
got the precepts inculcated by his Sunday
school teacher G. A Tucker and pro
ceeded to take an active part in the Terp-
sichorean festivities. Such entertain
ments as these should be encouraged since
they relieve prairie life Of that dull mo-
notony and social quietness which the alb.
sence of such gatherings frequently en-
genders. ZENo.
