Attorney General McCamman has pre-
pared an opinion on the reservation order
of President Arthur, in which he holds
that the order was issued legally and that
he was vested with the necessary power
to restore the land to the public domain.
Great Indignation is telt throughout the
territory at the action of Commissioner
Price, Secretary Lamar and Senator
Dawes, but it is confidently expected that
they will not be successful in getting the
order rescinded. The Mitchell Republi-
can of Tuesday morning has the following
special:
The letter of Commissioner Price to
Secretary Lamar and the strong opposi-
ton of Senator Dawes and the Indian
Rights Association have created quite a
furry of excitement among the friends of
the measure, but those who are conyer-
SAINT with the facts are satisfied that Ar
thurs order will not be rescinded. The
plats have been delayed a few days by the
effort of these sentimantalists. The opin-
ions here of those in the Interior depart
ment is that the plats will 60 forward the
latter part of the week Prominent law.
yers are of the opinion that the order hav-
ing been issued and the settlers having
taken possession of the lands in good faith
could not be legally elected from the lands.

If house divided against itself cannot
stand we may look for total knock down
extinction of the Dakota democracy. In
full blast there is now going on a wordy
war between members of the territorial
democratic committee as to who will step
into the shoes Of Governor Pierce, and
from present appearances the battle will
wax hotter from now on. A special to the
Yankton Press from Washington states
that "Inman's committee that endorsed
Marratta for governor, numbered seven,
all told, including Marratta. Three have
since endorsed Ziebach, who has personal
letters from two-thirds of the same com
mittee. Marratta's endorsement means
simply 1nman, VanEps, Ordway and COM
pany. Nothing more, and he will come
as near being governor Of Dakota as Ord
way does of being an honest man. 1t is
an Ofdway move" If removal is to be
made The ADVOCATE would be pleased
to see Zeibach receive the appointment.

The Yankton Press has an interview
with late arrivals from Bismarck, wherein
the legislature appears entirely at disad-
vantage. Hon. j. R. Gamble says the
session throughout was one of hard fight
ing. Corruption faunted itself in the
faces of the honest and the dishonest, and
as comparison, it is said that the last
legislative session in Yankton, with all its
bold jobbery and bribery, was Sunday
school picnic alongside of the late sixty
days in Bismarck. Governor Pierce's We
to of the capital bill was not unexpected
and is generally looked upon as one of
the folloies of a man not bad at heart, but
not susceptible to the influences Of his
surroundings.

Governor Pierce did one or two COM
mendable acts during the last session Of the
legislature, for which lie re :eives due cred
it. Among other things his veto of the
Fargo agricultural college bill aud the
Plankinton reform school measure were
acts emitting him to a certain amount of
credit, while his disapproval Of the woman
suffrage bill met with a favorable response
from a majority of the people of the terri
tory. In the closing chapter OF his veto
message the governor says:
Ifwonen are to be eniranchised, let it
be done, not as a thirty days wonder,
but as merited reform resulting from
mature reflection, approved by the public
conscience and sanctioned by the enlight-
ened judgment of the people.

Speaking of matters as they stand to-
day there is one curious feature about the
press of Dakota. The newspapers that
are OVERRIDING themselves in an attempt
at supporting the action Of Governor
Pierce on the capitol removal issue are
the very identical crowd that bore the
taint of Ordwayism, who in combination
with the solid press of North Dakota are
once more rejoicing over the defeat of
South Dakota. The same crowd that
went down with tie administration Of
Ordway, not having peeped since the So
lidifcation of South Dakota forces, seem
once more to have gained lease Of life
through the disorganizing policy Of the
new governor, and are howling once more
with renewed vigor over the victory of
Bismarck over South Dakota. Another

The Dells Mining company received the
news of the recent unfavorabe decision
Of Judge Edgerton, in regard to the school
lands near Dell Rapids, on which the
company's claims are located, as an out
come of the case not at all unexpect-
ed, and are not the least disconnected in
their plans. George A. Silsby, the sec
retary, says that he will appeal the case,
and feel confident that they will get de-
cision in the supreme court of the United
States, if not before. In the meantime
the company are making preparations to
go on with the operations the same as if
no decision had been given.

noticeable phase of their hilarity is that
they rejoice not so much over the victory
of the north as they do over the defeat of
the south. In exact comparison with
their action for the past four years this
same crowd are now laughing in their
sleeve, and in some cases openly boasting
of their power, gaining substance at the
same time from the very people they pro-
fess to have downed. North Dakota and
portion Of South Dakota's vacillating
characters have much to be thankful for
through the action of the governor.

1t often costs one quite struggle to
do his simple duty; and when one does
his simple duty in spite of his tempta-
tions to do differently he deserves credit
for his doing. One has no need to live
long in this world before finding out
this truth. A bright little boy about
two and a half years old recently
showed that he apprehended it. He
was on the eve of doing something that
was very tempting to him. mo, my
son; YOU mustn't do that said his
father. The little. fellow looked as if
The would like to do it in spite OF his
fathers prohibition; but he triumphed
over his inclination, and answered res
lolutely: '.All right, papa, won't do
.it.'' There was no issue there, and the
rather turned to something else. The
boy waited minute and then said, in a
aone of surprised inquiry: Papa, why
Hon't you tell me: That's good boy'P"
urhe father accepted the suggestion,
and commended his son accordingly. A
1sust recognition of child's well-doing
is a parents duty, even though the
Lhilds well-doing ought not to hinge
On such recognition. And as with lit
ale folks so with larger ones. just COM
anendation is every ones due. Even
