Mr.. Brown had completed his diagram
of the proposed changes there was one
large division on the northern border
which bore no name. He was asked the
reason for SO important an omission and
his reply was that he could not decide
upon name for that particular division.
His modesty was SO apparent that some
one standing by suggested "Brown" and
by general consent Brown 1t became,
though it was close call. The author
of the bill was asked why he had made
this particular county and some others
so large. His reply was that it made no
diference-that part of the territory
would never be populated. This was the
common belief in those days and it was
through such belief that so many over
grown counties were created,

Secretary Endlcott, the head of the
war department, denies all reports Of
differences between himself and General
Sheridan and expresses surprise that
such rumors should have gained curren-
cy. He says his relations with General
Sheridan are of the most cordial nature
and that the peace between them Is of
the most substantial sort. There is
however, an unsettled question of au-
thorlty as old as our armies. The presi.
dent is the commander in chief OF
the military forces. The secretary
of war occupies the same
relation to him that an adiutant general
does to general-he voices the orders
from the higher source and gives them
authority. In the natural sequence
this duty should devolve upon the rank.
ing general. who is next to the president
in the military department. 1t is an
instance where civilian stands between
the head of the military organization
and his immediate subordinate, and that
civilian is clothed with the power of q
cabinet order. The ranking general OF
the army should be the secretary of war,
to avoid complications.

not to require correction. Perhaps il

sayings are printed by the republican
papers of south Dakota. They are the
boldest of transparent falsehoods, with.

in charge of newspapers, as exhibited in
giving either credence or support to
such petty but malicious fabr1catlons.

Governor Zlebach arrived at Scotland
last night from his Washington visit,
having returned by way of Fargo, where
he met and consulted with some of the
leading democrats OF the north. The
supposed object of the conference was
to unite the. democracy OF Dakota upon
one platform and avert the threatened
danger of split between the two Sec
tions. Governor Ziebach will probably
remain at home during the remainder of
the gubernatorial contest. He feels
sanguine of success, but cannot tell
when the ins will go out and the outs
will go in. It seems more than proba.
BILE that if change is made and Da-
kota man is chosen Mr.. Ziebach will re-
ceive the appointment of governor. His
visit to Washington and his modest, un-
demonstrative ways have strengthened
his case with the president. This is his
first experience in Office seeking for
himself, q vocation to which he is not
we'll adapted.

words of bitter denunciatlon for those
