If an officer is removed from his

the removal casts no discrcdit on his
character. Ii the rule is laid down.
however, that no removal is to be
made, except FOR cause. II becomes a
distinct imputaiion against man TO
remove him from office. Where the

mands that the acts which lead TO re-

TO the officer affected but to the peo-
pie. in order that they NAV Judge
whether the accusation has been es-

removal possible without reproach to
the removed officer. or the reason for
turning him out should be stated in

FROM GARDEN CITY TO FARGO

80 the Editor of the Eagle
There il something in "a name, and
the newly organized territory in the
extreme sou hwcstern portion of the
state is fortunate in being designated
by the names of three illustrious
statesmen. Seward, for Liucoln's sec
retary and chief counsellor; Stevens.
for one of the foremost champions of
liberty, and Morton, mdiana's war
governor.
Those who followed closely the pro-
ceedines OF the legislature last winter
will remember the difficulty the set
tiers in this territory had in securing
The passage of the act enabling them
to make their county organizations,
owing to the opposition OF the men,

doubtless sounded very s;atesmaniike
to those uuacquainted with new Kan
sas, but ii would be difficult TO con-
vince the people most Interested that
il was not the deliberate intention of
the aforesaid statesmen to prevent the
organization of new counties, in OF der
to retain for themselves the
representation TO which the new
territory would have been entitled
if the enabling act had been passed
previous 10 making the apporiion-
ment.
The counties above named will
have 10 difficulty in completing their
county organizations, although the
number of inhabitants required in
order 10 organize was increased from
1900 to $500. Before the enumerator
can make his rounds the actual resi-
dents in the county will far exceed
that number.

Immediately on crossing the river we
come to th9 sand hills. which at that
point are seven miles wide. These
hills extend along the south side
of the Arkansas river for
more than $50 miles. This sand belt
attains its greatest width at this point.
The area it includes. is therefore COM
psratively small, but as long as il lasts
the traveller is afforded a spectacle
which cannot fail to come up to the
most desoiatc conception his imagina-
ton ever formed of the great Ameri-
can desert. He can see nothing but
wild waste of sand drifted by the
winds into hills ranging from forty to
one hundred feet in height.
Immediately south of the sand hills. |
is a broad fertile plain, gently undu-
lating, extending to the Cin,arron
river. distance of more than forty
miles. Nearly every acre of this land
as tar as the eye can reach. is tillable
land and as rich as the valley of the
Nile.
Several towns arc marked down on
the map along the route. between
Garden City and Fargo, but the only
ones visible to the naked eve, are

Garden City, and Springfield, three

The Natlonnl Comnlain1.

Dyspepsia is national complaint. Almost
every other man or woman you meet has It,
and the result is that the number OF pseudo
remedies for it are as numerous as Pharaoh
host. They are for the most part worthless.
There is, however. searching eradicant of
this distressing and obdurate malady, one
whose genuine merits long since raised y, TO a
foremost place among the staple medicines OF
America. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters extir-
pates dyspepsia with greater certainty and
promptitude than any known remedy. and Is
a most genial invigorsnt, appetizer and aid TO
secretion. These are not empty assertions,
as thousands OF cur countrymen and women
who have experienced its effects are aware,
but are backed up by irrefragable proofs re-
peatedly laid before the public. The Bitters
also promote regular habit OF body and give
q healthful Stimulus to the urinary organs.

A leading public man of Dakota expresses

could have happened to Dakota. especially

lay 10 the admission to statehood. as. if it

sent its interests and resources in their full

is predicted that there will be migration
to the territory the coming year that will
surpass even its boom period. A leading
railroad man says in regard to it: Il look
for rush next spring and expect TO see
things boom from March until next winter.
Our road Is doing a terrible lot of adyer-
Using for Dakota in the Eastern states, and

Aid for chicago's Board of Trade.
Special TO the Globe.


CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-Charles Counselman
is revolving a scheme to pay off the bonded
Indebtedness of the board of trade. He
offers TO be one of the fifty to donate S., 600
each or one of 100 to donate 50. 500 to the
establishment of a sinking fund for that
purpose, and the So, 500. 600 thus raised 10
be increased to SIS, 600. 600 by an assessment
of 500 on each membership. This sum,
with the interest, would pay off the entire
amount in ten years, and in the following
three years would amount to sum suffi-
cicnt for the establishment of an insurance
fund guaranteeing $40. 900 TO the families
of deceased members. and, if allowed to
remain. would soon increase that benefit to
500 600. This. he claims. would practically
settle the question of the price of member
ship and establish the prosperity of the
board beyond the possibility of doubt.
Said Mr.. Counselman:
There are lots and lots OF men In this board
who owe their all 10 its prosperity, and l am
one of them. II will be a pleasure to me 10
donate $1,000 of what have made TO make

Referred To an Investigating Com
mittec--Sherman,s Chances.

COLUMBUS, o.. Jan. 4.-The house of
representatives adopted resolution this aft
ernooon referring the election returns of
the representatives from Hamilton county
to the committee on privileges and elections
of the house 10 investigate and report BY
resolution as early as possible. The com
mttee is given power to send for persons
and papers. The Democratic members
from Hamilton county now occupying seats
are privileged TO appear before the commit
tee and produce testimony 20 maintain
their right TO seats. The most Of the aft
ernOon was spent in the discussion of the
resolution. The Republican members do
not claim that an investigation or contests
is proposed in the resolution, but an exami-
nation of the face of the returns with a
view of making prima facia case against
the Democratic members who presented
certificates and were sworn in to-day.
There is division of opinion as TO whether
the examination will be deliberate or
whether report will be made in the next
week or two. The only political signif-
canoe in an early report would be to seat
the ten Republican members. il that should
be the finding of the committee. and thus
increase the vote which will be cast for
Senator Sherman for reelection. Judging
from the current expressions among the
Republican members of the legislature
there appears no reason 10 doubt that Sem
ator Sherman will succeed himself regard
