originator and Inventor was Major Walter
Wingdeld, OF Her Msiesty's body guard, who
in 1874 wrote a little book, complied set al
rules, and coined the outlandish name "Sphai-
ristike." The first game ever played was IA

vision. The other and controlling
principle has been the assertion OF the
people to select their state boundaries
This has been done in several cases by
defeating the plans proposed by con.
gress and proposing their own; but in
ell cases 1t has been the wish Of the
people, either expressed to congress OF
independently, that has controlled the
decision. So, in asking division, in form.

boundaries Dakota is acting in harmony
with long line of precedents Of both
kinds.

life. He has for years been identified
prominently with the transportation
business on the Missouri, and the active,
energetic life of Bismarck. His ap-
pointment to the marshalship is at
