WASHINGTON. July 16.-The appoint
ment of d. W. Hutchinson to the Bismarck
land office was one of the surprise parties
to which the Washington correspondent is
sometimes treated. There was nothing on
file to show that any such man was an ap-
piicant. Therefore was his appointment
complete surprise. 1t is all clear now, and
If our foresight was as good as orr hind
sight, what great men we would be. One
William Scott, of Pennsylvania, went to the
White house and asked. personally, that
this man be appointed to the Bismarck land
office. Presto, and it was DONE Can
Great Scott ask anything of this admins
tration and be refused? Nay. On the con-
trary he is one of those men who really and
unconsciously belong to the small class
of favored individuals who make
administration. 1t is understood bv
all of the members of the Pennsylvania con.
greSsional delegation, that when they want
an important appointment made, they must
ask the advice and solicit the assistance OF
Col. Scott. In the matter of the appoint
ment OF Hutchinson, nobody'S advice was
asked. Mr. Hutchinson happened to be a
personal friend of Col. Scott, and sought
the office through him. Result; happiness.
Those who know him say that he is thor
ough gentleman, competent business man,
and one OF the whOle-souled fellows who
will make himself at home and win friends
in Dakota. Let him be so received. 1t
isn't always pleasant to have the few offices
filed by men from the states; but if Dakota
gets such men as Hutchinson and Hughes
East, she may congratulate herself upon
such additions to the next census. After
ALL all of us Dakotians are carpet-baggers.

THE WHEAT CROP
In the Red River Valley--The Man
itObass Enterprise.

CoLFAX, OAK, July 16.-The appear
ances at the present time in regard to the
wheat crop indicate that it is far below the
average. have visited different places in
the Red river valley in Richland and Cass
counties and find that the above esti-
mate is in harmony with the facts as given
by others. The dry weather few weeks
ago, followed finally by rain, has caused
less shooting OF the wheat plant and too
rapid heading of the same. The stand is
thin, and the heads in sight are short. We
need rain now, for the weather is hot and
the absorption and evaporation of the last
rain has been very rapid. However, the
outcome may be better than the present in
dications warrant. The bears can ride the
market if they think best and hold the
prices down to So cents bushel, where it
is now. Nevertheless, there must
be change for the better soon,
for this years crop will be short.
There is good deal of railroad building
in this country, especially in the southern
part, in the vicinity of Paramount, Bright
wood and Swan Lake region. The ST.
Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railroad
company are running a branch from their
main line near Campbell west and seem to
be determined to parallel the Minneapolis &
Pacific Railway company, who own the
Dakota Midland grade with all the rights
of the same. 1t makes that section very
lively, for hundreds of men and teams are
employed, and the money in circulation is
correSpOndingly manifest. Along the
Breckenridge extension and Devils Lake
country the Manitoba management are
making many Improvements, putting in
sidetraeks for the passage of teams and
getting good ready for the running of cars
on this newly-constituted trunk artery. A
new sidetrack 3, 400 feet long has been put
in at this point, and few other places are
receiving increased sidetrack advantages,
which is demanded by the anticipated IN
crease of business.

land seekers over the country.
In the spring of 1879 he returned to Water
town to find that the Chicago & North
western Railroad company had plated a
village and rebuilt the burned out bridges
from Gary west as far as WATERFOWL, and
the country was overrun by land seekers.
In the meantime the James River valley
was much talked of, and he again decided
to go West, so in company with S. w.
Bowman, now of Ashton, Oak, he ex-
plored the now famous Jim, and was
engaged during part of the summer in
carrying land seekers to that beautiful
valley. In the spring of 1880 he removed
his family to Watertown, leased the hotel
formerly called the Merchants, but now
known as the Kampeska house, where he
remained about two years. During that
time he made a selection of beautiful
quarter section of land in the
Sioux valley, near where Castlewood
now stands. He built a residence
thereon and decided to engage in farming.
He is now engaged in building a hotel at
Watertown. The building in size, 50x1OO.
will be three stories above the basement.
Messrs. Dewrey & Manseth are building

average crop, and in some localities in the
western part of the county it is hardly
worth cutting. The Farmers alliance
convention, held at Larimae on the 18th
inst, didn't turn out to be of any use to
the politicians and office-seekers, as they
were not allowed to have anything to do
with the meeting. Every county officer
was present, and in some cases even the
deputies, but all were treated alike and al
lowed to listen but not dictate. A central
committee was appointed and given the
power to name one delegate from each
township, whose duty it will be to call the
caucuseS in their respective districts. There
will be no party lines drawn and the alliance
favors good anti-monopoly candidates for
office. The resignation of County Treas
urer Thoraldson was accepted by the COM
mlssloners. but as yet no one has been ap-
pointed to fill the vacancy. There
are quite number of names men
toned for the position, among which
are Peter P. Hamre of Maxwell; Andrew
Jansen, son-in-law of State Treasurer
KittleSon of Minnesota, prominent
merchant of Northwood; Newton Parker
Of Ojerter, an old settler and a tiller of the
soil, also City Justice Lewis Knutson Of
Northwood. -. Dr.. Collins has returned

Dakota Bills Dead.
Special to the Globe.


WASHINGTON, July 16.-All of the Da-
kota bills are as dead as door nails. Moth
ing can resuscitate them during this ses-
sion. They are gone, past recovery.
Judge Clifford has done some little work for
the Dawes bill during the past week, but
he has not accomplished much. The mem
bers are now getting wild to get back to
the dear people, and have them mend their
fences, and hence they will not listen to
Dakota matters. When Judge Brookings
of Sioux Falls was here recently, he ad-
vlsed Clifford to get up in the house every
day and demand consideration of Dakota
matters. He said, 1T don't make any diff
terence whether you succeed or not, you
Will compel them to understand that they
are Ignoring more people than half of them
have III their states. much less in their dis
trlcts." But Clifford would not take the
advice. He believes it to be better policy
to go at things quietly during this session
and then demand action next winter. Be
sides, he says that as a new member it
might not accomplish the good desired.
There is great deal in that. New men
do not always get hearing IN the house.
In fact, they have to keep quiet, or be sat
down upon nearly all of the time.

Let full justice be done to the ''girl of the

Hank Holbrook has gone to the peniten-

is peculiar in that he was really the rustic

wilds of Chemung county, was hired.
He was readily instructed in his simple

ness of manner was no counterfeit and he
at once gained the confidence of his casual
acquaintance from the country. But the
increased number of robberies in the Bis

against Holbrook, he was sent to prison
with others of the gang, for the INSIDE
