26.-Theodore F: singiser, the Idaho
delegate. who was appointed receiver
ut the Mitchell, Oak, land Office, was
confirmed to-day at "a snap secret ses-
sion, almost before the score of Mitch
II citizens in Che city found out that
the nomination had heen made. Sing
iser's appointment is one of these7curi
osities of politics that grow out of So
eial relations Singiser lived. in 1873.
in Yankton. and edited, with Bud 'Tay-
lor, the Herald of that place: Later, he
went Bismarck, and there, under Judge
Kidder, he got into the treasury depart
nent in Washington. In 1878 he went
nto Pennsylvania and voted for Tilden.
md was removed from his clerkship in
consequence. Judge Kidder interfcred
md succeeded in procuring his rein
statement. He was appointed receiver
1t Oxford, Idaho, liz 1873. In 1880 he
was appointed treasurer of the terrific
ry, and the governor of the territory
being stricken down with sickness, hi
acted as governor during the winter OF
i88l-S2. He beat Aihsle, the delegate
i'll congress, two years ago, on an anti
Mormon issue. lie Is celebrated hs a
nigh liver, spending money literally.
md as q connoisseur of wine. women
md good dinners won the presidents
favor. The most interesting incident
connected with the mar is the fact that
We is regarded by the Democrats as a.
good Democrat. This fact quickened
his confirmation. There were two can
lldates for the %receivership here from
Mitchell. Singiser was nominated be-
fore they could get their papers ilel.-

Just two hundred and fifty dollars to

Of Washington Springs.
The printing press has made Presi-
dents, killed poets, furnished bustles
for beauty and polished genius with
the sand paper Of its criticism. 1t has
made the world get up to roll call every
morning and to the pulpit it has given
lungs of iron and a voice OF steam. Ii
.as set the price on a pushel of wheat
md made the country postot1ice the
.limmering goal Of rural scribe. 1t has
curtailed the power of kings, embel-
lished the pantry shelves and busted
rings; it has exposed fraud. brought to
punishment, and furnished the whole
female race with dress patterns; but it
can't get a woman's name right in a
marriage notice to save FIX.
1t is generally thought that the bill
to remove the o. S. Court to Mitchell
will become a law. The justice of this
measure. or rather the necessity for it
is so apparent that scarcely any oppose
tion is manifested in any direction save
at Yankton. U. S. Court is held at only
three points in the territory, Fargo,
Dead wood and Yankton. The terrific
ry within the Yankton Districts large
and Yankton about the most inaccessi-
lle point in it. Mitchell is beyond dis
pute the most centrally located and
most accessible point IN the district.
The hardship of going to Yankton to
court is a complaint SO widespread tina,
the legislature would fail in one Of it's
prime duties. There is little danger of
this however. Thelegislature will give
Mitchell the court all the more readily
because Mitchell has no territorial in
stitution of any hind and has no appro-
priations to ask for.--Mitchell Republic
