Yankton county, through its republi-
oan convention and through its demo-
cratic convention, has declared itself in
favor of the division of Dakota on or
near the 46th parallel. By resolutions
strongly drawn 1t has instructed its
representatives in the two territorial
conventions to urge the passage in those
conventions of resolutions favorable to
such division of the territory. This
action reflects the sentiments of nearly
every resident of the county, without re-
ference to pol itical preferences, and in
voicing this sentiment the two conven-
tions have fairly represented their con-
stituents.

We re-atfirm the demand for the di.

economical and efficient government of
SO large and diverse territory; and we
denonnce as an unprecedented outrage
ppon free people the continued exclu-
sion of Dakota from the sisterhood of
states by the dominant party in the ma.

partisan advantage.
We deprecate the unpGtriotic and in

vor the admission of Dakota undivided

We instruct our delegates to the terri

Billy Deans Damage Claim.

The long contention over a claim of
land damage at Newark was last week
brought to a final conclusion. In 1881,
the charter of the Delaware Western
Railroad was purchased by the Balti-
more & Ohio Company, and the name
changed to the Baltimore q Philadel-
phia Railroad. The B. & o. Com. then
we mt to the Legislature and succeeded
in having the charter amended, so that
the new road would run north of New
ark. A commission was appointed in
December, 1881, to assess damages for
lands belonging to William Dean, which
had been taken by the RAILROAD COM
pany. This commission proceeded to
condemn lands of William Dean on the
north boundary line of the town, as well
as on the north side of the boundary line.
Mr.. Dean retained IgnatiOus G. Grubb,
ESQ, and he objected to the cOndem-
nation of the land south of the boun-
Diary line, but the commission proceed
ed, and awarded Mr.. Dean $4,000 for
81 acres of land, which he declined to
accept. The matter was then taken
before Judge WOOten, at Dover, and
after hearing argument, he decided
that the commission was illegal, and
he then appointed Nathaniel Williams,
Serick f ShallcrOss, Charles G. Ash,
ZadOc A. Poole, and John Pugh in
their place. The commission met in
the Law Library at the Court House.
ON Friday, to examine witnesses in re-
Iation to the value of the ground taken
The railroad company was represented
by Levi G. Bird, ESQ, and Mr.. Dean
by Ignatius 9. Grubb and George Y
Massey, Esqs. The decision of the
commission, which is final, was al
award TO Mr.. Dean of $4,000, which is
a gain of 500 over the former award

fishing an obnoxious insurance scheme
and compelling every employe to be-
come a member. The laws of the in
surance department of New JERSEY
went into effect Monday and materially
aid the company in the project, which
is believed by the employees to be a
cleverly arranged plan to effect a re-
duction of salaries. The company has
IN its service 10000 men. None of the
employees are exempt except those
whose wages do not exceed 500 per
month. The company, it is claimed,
seeks to attain another advantage in
requiring all the members to enter into

company from suits for damages for
injuries sustained by employees"
