ANOTHER WILD wEANGLE BETWEEN THE TWO
FACTIONS on THE SENATE.
When the democratic members OF the Ohio
senate filed into the chamber at Columbus at
clock yesterday afternoon the wransling of
Saturday was at once renewed. The hall was
crowded with spectators. The republicans de-
sired TO obtain the order of the day and get tho
contested cases before the senate while the
democratic side was engaged In an effort TO get
before that body n resolution which had been
agreed upon In caucus, proposing the appont-
ment OF committee to consider the constiiu-
tional and legal relations existing between tho
senate and Its presiding officer. The proceed
ings at this time were "A cross-fire OF motions
resolutions and protests. A republican meril-
Der attempted TO report rules for the trial
of the contested cases. A democrat moved Il,
adjourn. The chair held all dilatory motions
to be out OF order. and refused to hear any thing
not bearing on the contested election cases.
The democrats then, amid great excitement
demanded that the clerk call the roll on the
question OF adjournment. The president tried
10 drown the voice OF the clerk with ais laNel
but the roll was called, 20 members voting for
adjournment The democratic members
started out while the clerk handed Tie roll call
10 the president to be ANNOUNCED. That official
tore ii in several pieces and threw 10 un the
foor while the crowd surged I'm front of the
ratings, and the greatest confusion prevailed
The clerks all left their places and "a soon as
partial order could he restored the president
proceeded To read the rules, which had been
offered by Mr. Pavcy. With one of the senators
at the clerk s desk, the republican minority
voted on the rules aud they were declared
TO "Wednesday at y. m, and the republicans
To this morning.

''THE Democratic party of this territory
has the golden opportunity for success in
the campaign for Delegate TO Congress" }"
IF the would-be leaders of that pa rty, all
over the territory. did not have such a
severe attack of enlargement of the era
mum. That party might be placed in q
position to make respectable showing,
we're there not so many petty cliques in
almost every county In the territory.
Small men set themselves up to control
and direct matters of the most vital i'm
portance to every resident of Dakota, for
which they arc no more fitted than wild
broncho to preach. Much important legis-
lation in which this territory is interested
might have been secured even from q
democratic house, If the majority of that
body had been properly advised as to
the exact status of Dakota affairs. For
the sake of the territory it would be q
blessing if these would be "bosses' could

THE following from the New York
Times at this season is strikingly correct.
New England investors see the great
value of Dakota realty and are more anx-
lous than ever to get money out on IN
terest, on these fertile quarters, halves
and wholes.
New York Times: Mr.. q. Wattley, a
New England merchant, who retired
from business with big fortune, was in
New York few days ago with COM
pany of his townsmen from New Bed
ford. The party had just got back from
the far Northwest, where they mad been
prospecting for chance to leave SO 900,
600 or 90 on investment. Dakota cap
tured their hearts, and the narratives they
told New York friends of what they saw
and what they expected in Dakota did
not lack enthusiasm. Farmers out there
are prosperous; they have had good crops,
and are paying off the mortgages on their
lands. In every direction there Is cause
for more than ordinary hopefulness, and
the New Bedford cash found investmen,
which promises handsome returns, and
another New England syndicate is soou
going to follow in Mr.. Wattley's tracks.

The first annual fair of the Dakota
Agriculturists' and Stock Growers Asso-
clatlon will be held at Mitchell this year.
The secretary writes they are permanently
established in the city of Mitchell and
propose to give each year one of the best
exhibitions held IN the territory. Liberal
premiums and especial offer of $3.50 for
the best county exhibit, directly interests
all the counties and deserves hearty sup
port. Three hundred and fifty dollars
premium for the best herd of cattle, con-
sistlng of one male and four females, open
to the world, Is also noted among the in
ducements by secretary J.. K. Smith.

ANOTHER promised improvement, and
necessity Of the times, has been knocked
IN the head, temporarily at least, by the
the injunction issued yesterday, delaying
the construction of the arteslan we'll.
Elsewhere in the Alert will be found q
brief sketch of alleged reasons why Daniel
E. Hughes, alderman, desires the we'll
project postponed and defeated. 1t Is q
singular document indeed, coming from
one who was vociferously bowling for
waterworks last year, when their cost
would have been frightful, compared with
what promised to be cheap and honest
construction Of an improvement needed
in jamestown beyond any Gonbt. There
are several reasons, no doubt, why Aid.
Hughes utillzes his position In the coun-
cll to obstruct this work, and one of them
seems to be an eager craving after noto-
rlety-newspaper notoriety necessarily in.
cluded. 1t may be laudable ambition
for an alderman in . small town, to &C.
quire . reputation as extensive as the
city limits, but the means of procuring
this attention can not always be con (.
trolled, nor confined, and in the end
have been known to return to plague the
inventor. Other reasons for this obstruc-
ton, are said to lie, not openly as in the
legal document, but slightly under the
surface, and are Of q purely personal and
slngularly selfish combination withal. 1t
seems unfortunate for the city that this
turn Of affairs should have appeared at
this time. II the legal reasons are the
only ones, they were IS evident before
the passage of the ordinance as after
wards, for this matter of waterworks has
been subject of turbulent discussion for
over two years, and every aspect Of It,
legal aud illegal, has been viewed repeat
edly. But Whatever the reasons, or who
ever the parties in the back ground may
be. this 10 not the way to build up town
and to invite people to live IN 1t. In

THERE is in progress in the town of
Erie, Kansas, most remarkable murder
tlial. The defendant is lad sixteen
years old, who is charged with killing his
father, mother, brother and sister. The
prosecution hss been unable to find any
adequate motive for the crime or any
provocation, and the defense appears to
have settled down to the theory that the
boys mind was unsettled by reading
dime novels of the blood-and thunder

THE $500 Fourth ofJuly"appropriation"
of the city council was made by . reso-

In 1856, and Aldermen Hughes and Hicks
voted for the same. At = special meet
ing June 9, the resolution was reconsid-
cred, and voted down, and no money
ever expended as the Capital would lead
one to believe. This matter OF quibbling 6

JUDGE BECKER, of tn territorial demo-
cratic central committee, has asked pccu-
MARY assistance from the party, by con-
fdential circular letter. The democratic
organ of the party here scornfully repu-
dates this method of Judge Becker's,
says he has made himself ridiculous there
by, and assumes to inform the democratic
central committee that it "has lived the
full measure of its usefulness and will
doubtless be honorably discharged when
the convention meets at Aberdeen, Sept.
%. If the object of these contributions
is to build monument to the 'masterly
inactivity of the committee it should
have been so stated and liberal sum
could have been obtained by return mail. -
How will the member of the committee
from this place, after many years of devo-
ton and self-sacrifice to the good of the
party, stand this fling at the honorable
committee of which he is member ?
This same organ publishes from day to
day, as sign of Its own respectability in,
and adherence to, the democratic party,
the names of Its central committee, in
large type, but frequently proceeds to
heap abuse and ridlcule on these names
many of them the most prominent dem
ocrats in the territory. In this respect
the Capital clearly shows that Its chestnut
motto an the first page
pledged but to Justice, Liberty and Law,
No Favors sway us nor Fear shall awe"-
furnishes rule for itself to 60 by, in
which it sets itself up to be greater than
the party, and thereby ridicules the acts OF
the most respectable democrats in Dako
Ia as often as it sees fit. The chances are
that if the organ can stand 1t the party
can.
