DIVIDING DAKOTA.

The bill recently brought forward in the
house of representatives at Washington,
providing for the division of the territory
of Dakota upon an east and west lne'
seems to meet with a considerable degree Of
favor among the Democrats of congress.
While it does not look probable from the
action-or, rather, non-actiOn OF congress
on Dakota matters that state will be
created out of either the whole or part OF
the territory at this session, the movement
for division and creation of two territories
is significant. If this bill should pass and
become Il law, an enabling act should be
submitted to the people of the south
portion certainly. and possibly to
the northern also. allowing them
to pass upon the question of admission in
the regular way. If it were found, upon a
full and fair vote, that a majority of the
people of either North or South Dakota had
expressed a desire for statehood, the terri
tory so desiring should be admitted with
little delay.
The political status of the people of the
territory has nothing to do with the case.
While the GLOBE will be glad to see the
voters of Dakota adopt as their political
faith the sound doctrines of the Democratic
party, which doctrines it believes to form
the true theory of a Republican govern
ment; and it believes they would by so
doing best subserve their own interests and
those of their fellow men; nevertheless,
should they fail TO do SO the GLOBE would
not consent to the postponement of their
admission as a state one hour on that
account

DAKOTA GLOBE.

For long time the GLOBE has been the
favorite paper in Dakota. This favorltism
grew out of the fact that the GLOBE has
nduStriously and conscientiously gathered
the news or all parts of this great territory
and presented it to the world in fair and i'm
partial manner without political or other bias
Recognizing the honest efforts of the GLOBE
to serve the people of Dakota, the people of
that prosperous empire have with rare lib
erality extended their patronage to the
GLOBE In return. All concerned have been
mutually benefited by this interchange Of
interests.
In further recognition of the splendid
patronage bestowed upon the GLOBE by
the thriving people of Dakota and of their
good will toward us. we commence, to-day,
the issue of an edition of this paper dedi-
Gated to that territory. 1t is a twelve-page
paper, sparkling, bright, interesting and
full of the news of a busy world. This
edition will be continued every Saturday in
the future, and the energetic and intelli-
gent people of Dakota are cordially invited
to consider it their own paper and to con-
tribute to its columns matters proper to APP
pear in it and of interest to them.

WATERTowN, OAK, April 1.-The mt nicipal
election occurs in this city on Tuesday, April
6. There are a mayor and four aldermen TO
be elected. There are several candidates for
mayor, among whom William Mcintyre and
L. S. Denning are the most prominent, but an
old politician was heard to remark that a
dark horse with good pedigree and a clean
record could beat the field. Tho territorial
meeting of the &. A. r., held i'm this city last

of the rebellion he was one OF tie most ar
dent supporters of the Union cause and en-
listed in Company d Ninth Indiana volun-
teers, of which he was made second lieuten-
ant. He participated i'll all the battles of
Western Virginia, and earned promotion by
HIS EFFICIENT SERVICES.
He left the service with the rank of
colonel and chief quartermaster of the
Thirteenth army corps. After the war,
somewhat reluctantly, he allowed his name
to be used as candidate for the legislature,
and was member of the legislature OF
1865, where he was noted more for work in
committee than display upon the floor.
Four years later he was one of the financial
secretaries of the United States senate, and
resigned this position to accept editorial
charge of the Chicago Inter Ocean. He
had displayed rare aptitudes for journal
ism as a Washington correspondent.
Differences with the management of the
Inter Ocean led to his leaving that and ac-
cepting the position of editOr-in-chief of the
Chicago News. 1t is believed that his
labOrS were large factor in the remarka-
bic success of that sheet. He gained
national reputation in the newspaper
field, and when President Arthur was look
ing about for a man that could bring har-
mOny and good feeling out of the turbulent
political situation in Dakota, he named
Gilbert A. Pierce as its governor. His
course in that station the past year and a
half has more than indicated the highest
anticipations that could have been enter
tanned. His tlrst words were like oil on
THE. ANGRY WATERS,
and he has had the rare faculty of securing
the confidence and good will of the most
conflicting elements. He has no doubt
made mistakes. but few question his con-
sistent endeavor to do equal and exact JUS
tice to all as God gives him to see the right.
He is a man of attractive manners, and has
a good head, as his likeness indicates. The
governor has charming family, the eldest
daughter and son carrying leading parts in
the Bankers Daughter, drama being rem
dered with great success ut the leading
towns in the North. Two younger chill
dren are attending college at YanktOn.
The good feeling and admiration between
the governor and Dakota is mutual, and it
is believed to be his intention to make it
his permanent residence. He has made
some investments, and his son is establish
ing a stock ranch in the Bismarck region.
