There is every indication that the
democrats in congress have decided not
to consent to the admission of the state
of Dakota under the Sioux Falls consti-
tuition. They have adopted this conclu.
sion, not because it represents Justice,
but for purely partisan reasons. In
taking this position they are placing
their party upon dangerous ground
The time has surely arrived when Da.
kota will refuse TO tamely submit to a
repetition of the unjust acts of the past
and i the democratic party follows up
the wrong it has instituted that party
will hear from Dakota as surely as
the sun goes down upon the
closing of the present session
OF congress. Their purpose, as outlined
III the so-called enabling act of the DEM
ocratlc party, is to fling US stone iii
place OF the bread tor which we ask.
The measure christened an enabling
act for Dakota, introduced IN the house
by representative Fredericks,is in form
ana effect an insult TO our people. 1t
is said that it was conceived within the
SO called intellect of Abe Boynton, but 1t
was not. While it may represent the
moral and political degradation of that
person 1T is too cunningly wrought for n
sample from his mental depository.

ton at Bismarck on the 7th OF
December next, which convention is au.
thoFized to proceed to frame such .

There Is no provision that the con-
stltutlon framed as aforesaid shall
be submitted to the people for
ratification or rejection. The
people are to have no voics in tie crea
tion of their fundamental law, except
such as may make itself heard in con-
vention packed for it's own designs by

vention is to create q

comes state. No provision is made
for the usual grants of land, for the pro
tection OF Dakota's school property, nor
for anything else which comm ends
itself to the decent respect of honest
men.
This is what is offered by the
democracy of the nation IN response tc
the appeal Of 100000 people for the
privileges of self government. Should
it become law there will be no more
any politics among US. Party lines
will be oDliterated and we will all en-
roll ourselves as Dakotaians and stand
together against SO fragrant betrayal
of our interests.

John A. Owen, of Kingsbury county,
one of the conservative members of the
constitutional convention, is growing
along with the times. In letter to
the Press and Dakotaian he proposes
that when the convention re. assemblies
next May 1t submit to vote of the
people an amendment to the constitu-
ton repeating the clause which prohibits
the exercise of the rights and privileges
OF statehood. Mr.. Owen is now ready to
accept the radical solu ton of the prob
lem and there are many other converts
to the same doctrine who were not quite
prepared when the constitution was
adopted.

The abnormal development of Boyn-
tons cheek is astonishing even to his CO.
laborers in the field of opposition to Da-
kota's rights. He has just written let
ter to Senator Harrison, chairman of the
committee on territoriee, "protesting
against the action of the last legislature
of Dakota territory in appropriatlng the
territorial revenues assessed upon all
the counties IN the territory for the ex-
pense of convention composed of dele
gates from only portion of the coun-
ties. Also against the action of the con-
ventioD Leld ct Sioux Falls, IN the
southeast part OF the territory, and the
SO called assumption of power of the
state Legislature recently convened at
Huron" 1t is hardly right and un-
doubtedly q violation of good faith for
the loyal democrats of south Dakota to
permit the acts OF this man Boyn ton to
pass unchallenged by the reputable
members of his party at home. With
no protests and no explanation they go
before the country as the sentiment of
all the democrats of Dakota, when as a
matter OF fact Boynton repre-
sents only little coterie whose
fingers were burned in the fires
of capital speculation at Bismarck
and who now seek to make themselves
financially whole at the expense of all
of Dakota. During the long years of re.
publican rule the democratic sentiment
OF Dakota was strongly for division ano
admission and the republicans of Dakota
shared in this sentiment and laboreG
faithfully to carry it out. There hai
been no real change in democratic senti
ment here at home, though the rank ant
tils of the party suffers itself to be mis-
represented at Washington by brain
less adyenturer with no other recon
mendation 10 favor than the fungu
growth he carries beneath his eari
Reputable democrats should either taxi
action against this fellow or lie dow!
and perish with shame.

STILL IMPROVING.

The chances Of the success of Mr..
Fitzgerald to one of the District Judge
ships are still improving. Since our last
article on the subject we have received
intelligence giving him about 70 more
votes than we had passed to his credit.
This has raised his stock very materially.
There are still some remote places to
hear from, but we think his election may
now be regarded as a settled fact. Every
place remaining to be heard from would
have to 60 practically solid against him
to accomplish his defeat, while several
of the precincts thus situated are known
to throw heavy Democratic maiorities.
We therefore regard him as out OF the
woods and once more new our con-
gratulations. The SENTINEL glorifes in
the prospect, and when entirely certain,
will feel like j%ollifying, in the success OF
so correct q man and able a iurist as its
neighbor and fellow.townsman, A. L..
Fitzgerald. And once again let us shake!
