Division of pakota.

The Mandan Pioneer talks back to the
Pioneer Press for its gratuitOus assumption
that division on the Missouri river is
midsummer vagary." and an absurdity
that will not receive serious consideration.
1t says: ''TheSadvOcates of division on the
river desire to tell the Pioneer Press to
mind its own business. We think that on
this side OF the Red river we can get along
without its upstart, unwelcome counsei.
Perhaps we know as we'll what is good for
us as any Minnesota apostle of sweetness
ana light. We think, on this side OF the
line, that we are old enough to take care OF
ourselves, and we advise such wOuld-De
friends as the Pioneer Press to let us
alone. We don't desire to force from
congress anything else but the Missouri
river as dividing line. The division on
the river sentiment is growing with wonder
tul rapidity. a couple of years ago the
Pioneer was the only paper in the territory
that advocated it; to-day we find our con-
temporaries in the Black Hills and in Cen
trail Dakota wheeling into line. We say to
the Pioneer Press with united voice-mind
your own business"
There is no doubt that the river line is
gaining strength and has good deal of
plausibility, as an examination of the map
will easily show. The interests east of the
river are exclusively agricultural and have
little in common with the stock ranges and
mines of the west.

LOUISIANA KFCKERS.

Senator EUsTIs is in Europe, but his
spirit still fingers in Louisiana. The state
official clique, all Of whom are partisan
friends of the senator, have organized them
selves into cabal of kickers, with the
ayowed intention of fighting the administra-
ton in everything. Mr.. CLEVELAND has
always been fortunate in the enemies he
mas made. The strength of his adminlstra-
ton will not be abated by the hostility Of
the Louisiana kickers. The gang is in close
alliance with the Louisina lottery firm, and
that of itself is sufficient to attach all de-
cent people to the side of the adninistra-
ton on any issue that the cabal may raise
against it. The recent repulse of the cattle
barons in their cowboy raid on the admins

REPUBLICAN CONSISTENCY.

The New York Tribune gives notice that
the Republican members of the next con-
gress will not vote for any compromise
measure relative to the suspension of silver
coinage. 1t says they will vote for direct
and uneQuivOcal suspension of silver coin
age, but viii not support the WARNER BILL
As the Tribune carries the Republican
party, or what is left of it, in its vest
pocket, the announcement made by the
Tribune of the party's attitude on the silver
question will be accepted as official. The
Tribune deserves credit for preserving the
consistency Of its party. There never was
an issue between the people and banking
monopoly but what the Republican party
turned up as the champion of monopoly.
So far as results go it doesn't matter which
side the remnant of the Republican party
now espouses, for in its decay it is helpless.
But the ruling passion is strong in death,
and the Tribune proposes that when the
last breath goes out of the old organization
it shall have monOpolistic aroma about it.

ALarge Deficit.

LONDON, Aug. 6.-Lord Randolph
Churchill, secretary of state for India, in
troduced the Indian budget in the house of
commons this evening. He announced
deficit of 81, G29, 900, which he said had re.
suited from an outlay of e461, 900 greater
than the estimates, while the
revenue had decreased e5S6, 900.
The difference, he declared, would
have been saved if the late government had
not abandoned the Quetta railway. He
thought it unfair and unjust to make final
statement under such depressing circum-
stances. The late government, not Lord
Salisbury or Lord Dufferin, was to blame
for this state of affairs. He condemned
the Marquis of Ripon, the late viceroy Of
India, for not looking ahead. The
extra permanent military charge, he
said would probably reach 80, 900, 600
yearly. He declared that economy was the
only way Of meeting the deficit. The Mar
Quis of Huntington protested against Lord
Randolph ChurchilPS course in attacking
Lord RhOn without giving him notice that
would enable him to prepare q defense.
LORD harrington then proceeded to justify
the Indian policy of the late government.
Lord Randolph Churchill excused himself
ON the ground that he was placed in an I'M
usual position, having to explain large
deficit.
The house Of commons formally agreed
to the Indian budget The debate OH the
criminal bill was continued The
house rejected the clause which
aimed at the imprsoning and
inning of persons guilty of publishing scan-
dalous matter like that which recently APP
peared III the Pail Mall Gazette. The
clause imposing like penalties upon men
convicted of soliciting women on the public

suggestions relative to the funeral. 1t

lacking without ''the element Of the human
voice raised in choral harmony, sounding
to the heavens some masterpiece by one of
the great composers" 1t wants a choir

hero as 1t lies I'm state In the city building

masterpiece, which is TO be in the nature
of solemn dirge, while Pickering lights

master of funeral ceremonies, but in this
age of common sense and enlightened civ
iliZatiOns its suggestions sound a trife

OUR CESAR PUT TO BASE USES

OUR CESAR PUT TO BASE USES.
Among the number of reasons which the
Chicago Tribune assigns why Gen. GRANT
should not be buried in New York the most
forcible one is that when he went to that
city to reside it made merchandise Of his
reputation and traded upon his private
character, finally running him in fortune,
smirching his name, and, as Gen. SHEER
MAN says, preparing the way for the disease
to which he has Succumbed-in short.
breaking his heart. We fail, however to
see the force OF another reason assigned by
the Tribune, to-wit.: That New York gave
a majority Of $4,000 against GRANT when
candidate for the presidency. That is
probably the best thing New York has ever
done i'll connection with GRANT. If all
the states had done so it would have been
better for the fame of the great soldier
GRANTS greatness had eliminated at APP
pOmattoX and there it should have rested.
When he entered the field of partisan
| politics ii was only to bring clouds
and shadows over q career of unsurpassed
| splendor. AS a soldier GRANT was pre-
! eminently great; as statesman he was a
novice, and as a politician most miserable
failure. Therefore New York does not de-
serve censure for its effort to keep him out
of q sphere for which he had no previous
training and no natural qualifications.
! While the GLOBE cannot admit the sound
ness OF the Tribunes argument on this par
ticular point it does concur with its denOunc-
ing the ayarielous cupidity with which
New York rulers have seized upon his
ashes TO enhance the value of unstable
real estate in the vicinity of an inchOate
pleasure park. This is the estimate In
which New York has held him and the
! base uses to which she has put him."

the matter wisely so. The children, how
