There were no trains moving except

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE report of
the senate committee on territories TO ac-
company the bill for the admission OF
the state of Dakota into the union and
the organization of the territory of Lin
coin, reported by Senator Harrison to-
day, covers more than 100 pages of man
uscript, in addition to It's voluminous
printed appendices. 1t says thesmain
proposition of the bill is that the pro-
ceedings taken by the people of that
part of the present territory of Dakota
lying south of the 10th parallel of north
latitude, which resulted in the adoption
of a constitution by a popular vote on
the 81 day of November, 1885, shall be
accepted and ratified by con-
gress, and the state of Dakota
be admitted into the union on gu equal
footing with Che rest OF the states. The

this act of the Legislature was a neces-
sary preliminary to the holding of a con.
stitutional% convention, and if it were ad.
mitted that it had no legal force what
ever. The proceedings which followed
are to be treated as purely popular.
Still it gave the people the machinery
necessary for the expression of popular
feeling in an orderly and effective way.
The conventions which framed the con-
situations of Iowa, Michigan,
Florida, Oregon and per-
haps other states. the report
says, were held under the acts of terri.
torial Legislatures. The journal of the
proceedings of the convention is alluded

Interesting War Relic.

A gentleman of San Francisco has in his
possession one of the guidons which was used
BY Company B, First Maine Cavalry, at the
battle of Fredericksburg, Va, December ID,
1862. When General George S. Stoneham,
the present Governor, made his raid near
Richmond, all the guidons of the regiment
were ordered destroyed to prevent the posi-
bility of their falling into the hands of the
enemy. One of the color-bearers, with de-
serving patriotism, severed the pole of his
guidon from the tattered flag and placed the
stars and stripes within the leg of his boot for
preservation. This guidon is probably the
only one of the regiment now in existence.
IL was borne by Sergeant Orten McCobb of
Lincolnvile, at the charge of Rappahannock
bridge, April IA, 1868. This relic of the
Rebellion was presented by Brevet Lieuten-
ant Colonel u. F. Tucker, formerly Captain
of Company B. First Maine Cavalry, to En-
Patten, the first Quartermaster of the regi-
ment. who now resides in San Francisco. Mr..
Patten subsequently donated the guidon to
Martin L. Crowell of San Francisco, Its pres
ent owner While in possession OF the tro-
phy, Mr.. Patten was frequently importuned
by the Secretary of the Historical Society of
the State of Maine for its contribution to the
Society. Enough remains of the bullet-rid-
died flag to show that it was made OF the
finest silk by ladies' hands.
