1t is believed that there is . scheme on

III hnnd have probably counted noses and
know whom they can depend upon when
the critical moment comes. itianot like

faith with The people there which the
honest sentiment OF the whole country

the southern members would vote for the
removal of the capital 10 tins place rather
than no, remove it at all is ns transparent
as thin air IL discloses the animus OF
the movement and IS Il sinister scheme 10

wreak vengeance upon Bismarck. IL is
done not because they love jamestown

as the tlattery and the web with when

We are about as like'y to be struck nv

object oil this sop to jamestown is TO STIR
up antagonism between this place and
Bismarck with thc expectation that it
will grow so bitter that the members who
might favor jamestown would join III
anything to down Bismarck, even /" the
extent OF carrying the capital into South
Dakota But there is a greater snag upon
which this scheme is running than any
obstacle yet referred TO. Section 1855 OF
the organic act OF Dakota says:
The govt rnor and legislative assembly
shall proceed to locate and establish the
seat OF government for the territory X X
but sucn place shall thereafter be subject
to be changed by the governor and legis-
lative asst mbly.
As will be seen lEe only way u change
of the capital can br made Is by the joint
act OF the governor and Legislature.
Neither IAN do it without the AID and
concurrence Of the other. II Is, we think
safe to assume that Gov. Pierce will not
lend himself to such an act Of bad faith
and scheme of legal robbery az the re-
mova Of the capital from Bismarck now

THE. CALM BEFORE THE STORM.

In external appearance there is serenity
IN the legislature a! Bismarck hn, things
arc not always what they seem There
il no more prolific source Of optical i'ln.
sion than appearances. The probabilities
arc that the present state OF the lcgisla :
tarc is the calm which preccdes n storm.
It is believed hy mind readers and close
observers that all the essential elements
Of cyclone exist IN a latent state in that
body, and ,hat nearly every member has
enough dynamite in his composition to
explode tho first jar he receives by a
member from the other side OF the 46th
parallel, either north or south. The con-
cussion of one explosion would produce
others until there would be a gencral
crash and clash.
The imperturbabic GOODNESS with which
South Dakota appropriated all the offices
in the organization, except that of chap
!a,ns, was contemplated by the northern
members with chaerin very much like
that which the proverb,al small boy il
Saul 10 ICCl WHICH, hC iSes . pliN So
The possible reason that south Dakota
did not appropriate these holy offices was
that they had no men of God in tnat part
Of the territory, iut the probable reason
was that they cons'delate.y thought the
| northern members would stand most in
| need of divine consolation during the
course OF the session and should have tho
right of conscience in choosing their owr
spiritual advisers. La this the southern
