Delegate Giford's position relative to
division and admission has been wrongly
stated, and in explanation be prints the
following letter:
Canton, D. r., Oct, Is, 1sS5-Black
Hills Daily Pioneer: My attention has
been called recently to statements in the
st. Paul Globe and elsewhere about my
favoring the admission of Dakota as a
whole. simply wish to say that am
strongly in favor of the division of the
territory. and, indeed, one in my posi-.
ton cannot we'll be otherwise. The re-
peated expressions of our legislatures
and Of the political conventions of both
parties have been at all times in favor of
the proposition. Judge Kidder, during
his term in congress presented b
DILL for the admission of Dakota as o
whole, and the legislature promptly
and unanimously adopted and for
warded remonstrance to the bill. Both
political parties through their territorial
conventions held during the last cam
paign, as we'll as the legislature during
its last session, unanimously adopted
resolutions and memorials favoripg divi-
sion. The indications are that the pres
ent constitution will be adopted by 90
600 majority. In the face of the facts,
to say nothing about the very good rea-
sons Tor division, it would be idle and
silly for the delegate to congress from
this territory to favor admission as a
whole. add that am in favor of divi-
sion upon principle. Respectfully
yours, O.S. CLIFFORD.

Rfei Not to Hang.

London, Oct. 15.-It is understood
that the sentence of death passed on
Louis Riel, the leader Of the half.breed
rebellion in Canada, will be commuted
to lifelong servitnde.
Montreal Herald: It appears that
more than one lawyer finds objections to
the proceedings that constitute the
trial of Rlel." The Hon. Mr.. McDoug-
al took exception to the constitution of
the court, maintaining that stipendi-
ary magistrate and sIx jurymen-or as
he termed it, 'half jury"-were not
competent to try man charged with
treason, and now Mr.. Donald Macmas.
ter, having been requested to give an
opinion on the subject, takes
other grounds against the conviction.
In his opinion Mr.. McDougals OBJ
jection is not we'll founded,
but be holds that the in.
dictment does not cover the offense,
that is to say, that the prisoner was in
dicted for having levied war against the
queen within "her realm" The statue
is one passed IN the reign of Edward
Ill, and by subsequent statue of
George Ill. ls made perpetual. Mr..
Macmaster quotes Sir Matthew Bale, an
eminent Judge, to show that no place
outside the limits of England are within
"the realm" Ireland, Scotland, the Isle
OF Man and the Channel islands coming
under the disqualification, and he cites
case in which this contention was
maintained in trial for coming in Nova
Scotia. If this opinion should prove to
be correct, the result will be the release
of Riel. TY.

This much has been decided upon, that
the line will be built from Kansas City
via Topeka. to Lincoln, Neb., crossing
the Burlington & Missouri road at
Pawnee City, near the south Nebraska
boundary line. From that point north
the course has not yet been decided
upon. The line as proposed will pass
through the rich coal regions of Kansas
and through the finest agricultural
district of Nebraska. The line when
completed Will be the first actual north
and south one in the west, as it will be
connected at Fort Scott with the Kansas
City, Fort Scott and Gulf railroad,
which terminates at Memphis, Tenn.
Work on the line from Fort Scott to
Topeka has already been commenced
and it is expected that the road will be
in operation between these points this
year. The length of the line is 500 miles.
Stock to the amount of $15,000,0OO has
already been subscribed, and the project
is being backed by Pennsylvania capi-
talists.

The Ohio Election.

Washington special, Oct. 15-John R.
Mclean telegraphed kre to-day that
the Ohio legislature would have dem
ocratio majority of three, but republican
advicee, from Senator Sherman and
others, are to the effect that the legisls-
ture Is republican on Joint ballot. Land
Commissioner Sparks has made some
comments on the Ohio election that do
not sound very well, coming from man
occupying the position that he does, and
will undoubtedly come up to confront
him the next time he is candidate for
Office:
"Hoadley was rs good candidate as
the democrats could have had," eaid be,
and ! thought he would carry the state
this time; but the beer-drinking, lnfdel
German can never be relied on.''
Private letters from Ohio given Sena-
tor Sherman the entire credit of the
victory, and say it is all due to his able
management and personal strength. He
has had more active connection with
the management of the campaign this
year than for many years before. His
success shows that he has lost none of
his old-time ability. It is the opinion
here that the victory will give him the
biggest kind of presidential boom, and
will not be forgotten by the people.

department, for expressing his Joy at

article saying that the civil service re-
form policy of the president will be sus-
tained by the people, regardless of the
defeat of the administration candidate
in Ohio, and that good men will be
retained in Office. The two articles
don't read very we'll together.

delegates to the constitutional conven-

state of Dakota. They ask with great

That element of the republican party

ical wreck of every man who possesses
sufficient individuality to follow the die

made vigorous effort to defeat Gener-
al Hugh j. Campbell in Saturdays con-
vention. This was the only position
within the gift of the convention
over which there was any contest
and the opposition was engendered by
General Campbell's refusal to join the
gang and follow its dictation. For this
reason he was assailed and his defeat at
tempted through the usual disreputabie
methods employed by those who op.
posed him. The work of burying the
general was begun IN the fourteenth

the tickets for delegate to the county

came within five votes of an
election. 1t transpired afterwards, how
ever. that he was defeated by fraud, one
of the parties who was run in to vote
against him having admitted that he
threw six ballots into the hat, when he
was not entitled to even one vote, hav

Campbell was elected delegate to the

Destitute Indians.

WASHINGTON, Dee 15.-The president
to-day transmitted TO the house report
from the secretary of the interior upon The
condition of the Northern Cheyenne In
dams upon the Rosebud and Tongue rivers
in Montana. and the inadequacy OF the APP
preparation made for their support, and re-
lueSting legislative authority for the use OF
certain funds indicated for their relief. In
transmitting the report the president says
that the proposed legislation does not IN
yolve any additional appropriation. and the
necessity for the authority requested Is ur-
gent. He therefore recommends early and
favorable consideration of the subject by
congress. The report states that from i'll
formation received from the governor of
Montana and from an inspector of the de-
partment, it appears that the Indians are in
q deplorable condition, many of them al
most naked. with the sign of winter upon
them and all of them suffering from want of
food There are about 200 of the Indians on
the Tongue and Rosebud rivers without
tools. The report states that the sum of
$50. 900, appropriated in the act of March
3 last for the relief of distress among In
dians, cannot be applied to the relief Of
these Indians because they have treaty
funds, though totally inadequate for their
proper support. The secretary therefore
recommends that congress authorize the use
of S12,0 900 from the appropriation to meet
the pressing emergencies of this case.
