busily engaged for four weeks at least. The

count of the intense feeling upon the merits

ceed Gov. Pierce in very short time. If
the honors did not fall to Mr..
Ziebach NJ. H. Day would be the
lucky man. Both these gentlemen
are in Yankton. Mr.. Ziebach frankly
stated that he did not think Gov Pierce
would be disturbed till after the adjourn
ment of the next Dakota legislature. Mr..
Ziebach said new governor would have a
great deal to do if appointed now, and
that very little could be accom-
plished in the way OF changes
till after the meeting of the legis-
lature. He says that while there
may be grounds for anticipating
the appointment of MIR. Plerce's sue
cesser, he is in ignorance of any movement
in this direction. Mr.. Day says it is quite
likely new governor may soon be ap
pointed. but ne has received no intelligence
that this will be done.

comes Dakota with her list of ripe, pluck

and most remunerative of all. There is not
a register or receivership which pays less
than SIS. 600 per year. In other states and
territories the offices pay but little more
than the regular salary of $500 per annum.
Dakota is rich officially as she is cereally.
AS vet there are eight offices worth having
which the president has allowed to remain
untitled thus long. The Office of register at
Deadwood will have to be filled next month.

izing the secretary of war to accept certian

and the Pacific railroad funding bill.
The consideration of the first depends on
the return of Mr.. Evsrts, who is not expect

upon the health of Gen, Logan, who has
been confined to the house for some davs by
rheumatism.
AS several senators have left town, and
more are likely TO go away Monday and
Tuesday, it is not thought probable tina: the
remaining special orders will be pressed for
ACTION, though one or both may be taken up
for debate
The same conditions are likely to prevent
the consideration of the inter state commerce

Mr.. Forney, on behalf Of that committee,

The Henry George men are well pleased
with the number of responses that have come

been formed, and the work of organization
is being pushed vigorously. 1t is the inten
ton of the executive committee to call ma

party The question of what name the new
party shall be given is agitating the minds of
the leaders just now. The Land and Labor
party" seems to be the most popular now, the
majority of the branches having assumed it.
1t will remain for the conference, however,
to decide finally the name of the new party.
Among the State organizers already appoint

the national committee is not either through
Its chairman or otherwise"
What about Senator Miller's remark that
the national committee didn't want to carry
the State of New York in 1884? asked the
reporter. THAT could certainly have given
you some right TO oppose him
~ have never seen the least reason to sup
pose that Senator Miller said ANYTHING of the
kind If he did, he was mistaken, that's all.
In any case | am not opposing him, neither
am opposing either of his competitors. |
am simply taking no part in the contest

OPPOSING WHITNEY,S VIEWS
For Admitting Certain Number of App
prentices to the Naval Academy.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.
Several prominent naval officers stationed
in this city are openly opposed to the plan of
Secretary Whitney, for the admission of
certain number of meritorial naval appren-
tices to the naval academy. One of the most
outspoken of the lumber said today that
similar experiment already had been tried
twice and each time resulted in the breaking
up of the apprentice system. He said that
the majority of officers who had been con-
nected with the training service, as well as
those now in the service who came in through
the apprentice system, were strongly opposed
to a repetition of what they characterized as
unfortunate experiments OF 1916 and 1864.
The same officer added Certainly the practi-
cal knowledge of men who have been init
mately connected with the apprentice syste m
for years ought to be regarded as more val
uable than the sentimental views of those who
have no intimate knowledge of the subject.
