What Live Newspapers Do.
Cedar Rapids (Ia.l Gazette.

Ceuar naples ua.) daZette.
Among other notable instances in
Iowa where the CITY press has dore a
vast amount of good in the develop
ment OF cities, We will mention Sioux
City and Des Moines. To be sure,
they have some papers that amount
to little or nothing, but the press in
general has done a good deal for
those cities. The Register, as mean
as it looks to us to be sometimes, has
been of special value to Des Moines
for many years. And the Sioux City
Journal has showed that place for
ward in a remarkable manner. There
are no doubt men in either of those
cities who say that the papers do
them no good, that they will not ad.
%vertise because they are we'll enough
known. What egotism they display,
ard how soon they find themselves
shelyed. Occasionally some small
bore, penurious, stingy, greedy fellow
will tell you that what he does in the
way of advertising is simply a dona.
ton to "help the paper" Out upon
all such, and have nothing to do with
them. Better to starve than poison
the palm with a dollar from such a
source. But there are men who IAN
not get direct results from adveytis-
ing who nevertheless do advertise
literally. Why? Because they know
something; they recognize the fact
that if the city is built up they will
be rewarded literally for all money
thus expended. They understand
fully that it takes money to make a
strong city press, and they have a
personal pride in seeing such. They
will not throw their money away on
every fleeing shadow that happens
along, but they will help papers that
help themselves, whose proprietors
first put in their own money literally,
and then show a disposition to build
up a paper, and display some ability
in that direction. Such men are the
very life of cities. They are public
spirited, ~tar-seeing. energetic, liberal
and prosperous. One such man is
worth more to a city than one thous-
and Of the %penurious, greedy, grasp
ing, catchpenuy kind.

Beynton,s Little Bill.

A printed copy of what Abraham
Boynton, the would-be democratic
statesman of Dakota, is pleased to
call "my bill" for the admission of
Dakota is before us. 1t attracts
attention chiefly because of the
undemocratic principal which it con-
tains. 1t is worse than no bill. And
congress that could be induced to
pass such an inconsistent and un-
statesmanlike measure would deserve
complete humiliation from further
political action. AS a means of de-
ferring the time when Dakotains shall
be allowed to exercise their rights
and privileges as freeman the passage
of Boynton's bill could hardly be
improved upon. As a medium
through which monopolies and cor
porations could impose grevious bur-
dens upon our people this same bill
is q complete success. 1t simply
provides for the election of delegates
to a convention to be held at Bis
marck next December, at which a
constitution shall be framed to be
submitted to the consideration Of con-
gross. No provision whatever is
made for submitting the constitution
to the people of Dakota for ratifca-
ton or rejection. The delegates
have the sole power of deciding what
shall and what shall not constitute
the supreme law of the proposed
state, subject to the approval of con
gress. Giant monoplies and corpora
tons have full sway. They can
march into the convention with their
filthy lucre and dictate the law by
which our people shallsbeagoverned.
Section 9 of the bill contains its
full text with reference to a constitu-
ton. This is what it SAYS:
Sec. 2. 'rhat..the members of the
convention thus elected shall meet at
Bismarck, the capital of said territory
on the first Tuesday in December,
1885, at 10 o'clock m, and shall or
ganize by the election of a president.
secretary, and other necessary officers
and proceed to frame such a form of
government or constitution as the
convention may see fit to provide
for the cosideration OF congress.
The other sections Of the bill sim:
ply stipulate that each county shall
be entitled to one delegate at large
and u additional.delegate for every
four thousand population according
to census of 1885, and appropriates
$4,000, or so much thereof as may
be required, out of the United States
treasury to the expenses of the
convention. If Abe Boynton has not
common sense-which his "hill" in.
dicates-his friends ought to have
ingenuity enough to get him away
from Washington in some manner so
that the regulations Of the Dakota
democracy will not he impaired. 1t
will be in order for some Of his warm
supporters to arise and explain
whether Boynton is a fool or a
knave.-ReGfeM Journal.

HOW sEECIIIGAs GOT IN.
A Brief History Of the Circulnstan-
ccs Surrounding the AGmis-
sion Of Michigan.
Detroit Free Press.

The adoption Of a state constitu-
ton, the formation of a state govern
ment and the election of United
States senators by the Territory of
Dakota before its statehood has been
acknowledged has created considera-
bic discussion; not more, however.
than did a similar demand by the
Territory Of Michigan for admission
to the Union, The contest in con-
gress was unusually obstinate, one
debate running fer twenty-four con-
secutiye hours. This was partly due
to the application of Arkansas tor
admission at the same time, both
sides insisting that the admission of a
slave state should be balanced by the
admission of a free state, or the re-
verse. The convention to erect all
the territory east of Lake Michigan
met in Detroit April, 1885. A ra-
tional constitution compared with the
later. one of 1850 was adopted, and
by the people ratified in October, In
November, Stevens Il. Mason was
elected governor and Edward Mummy
lieutenant governor; courts were or
gained and the legislature at its
meeting choose Lucius Lyon and
John Norvell United States senators.
President jackson, who was not
much in favor of the admission Of
the state, removed Mason from the
secretsryship of the territory and ap-
pointed Mr.. Horner, of Virginia, to
that position, with orders not to
recognize the alleged state officers.
But the people refused to recognize
him and at a meeting in Detroit re-
quested him to %leuve, WEIGH he did
afterward. II Michigan was a state, it
was a state out of the Union; and no
legal status, and could have none un-
til congress admitted 1t. Arkansas
was finally admitted unconditionally;
Michigan OF condition that her pee.
Pile would ratify the Ohio boundary
about which there has been some talk
Of war-and accept in place of the
territory thus given up the upper
peninsula with it's mines of copper
and iron, then undiscovered. 1t was
on the eve Of a presidential election,
and neither party wanted to offend
the comparatively powerful states of
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois by
acknowledging Michigan's strong
claims to a more southernly boundary
than she finally got. A state conven-
ton at Ann Arbor in September, 1880
rejected this condition, but another
convention, called there in October
by q few prominent citizens of
Wayne county, ratified the action of
congress. 1t WAS called the "frost
bitten" convention, because its mem.
bers were composed entirely of those
in favor of accepting the conditions
laid down by congress. There was
some opposition in congress to accept
ing this as the act of the people of
Michigan, but on Jan. 90, 1887, con.
gress admitted the state by recogniz-
ing the convention as selected by tie
people for the sole purpose of giving
their assent" When thus admitted
the existence of the state was recog.
nized as beginning November, 1895,
or more than two years previous.

A SiurdercI's Daring Deeds.


The public mind has not lost sight OF
the tact that Jack Wilcox was recently
killed Dy his nephew, Frank Wilcox, at
Eazlehurst, in this county. At the time
OF the killing, Frank acted with the ut
most composure. After the shooting he
went to tie lot, got his horse, shou ldered
his gun and rode of. Since that time
nothing definite mas been known about
him. Some thought he was still IN the
neighbornood or Hazlehurst. others
thought that be had left the country and
a great many people thought that he
would give himself up to the officers and
stand his trial. o.
Last Tuesday Col. E. P. Pad yeti was at
HaZlehurst on business and, ny special
invitation, took dinner with Mrs. Frank
Wilcox. A few minutes before the train
arrived on which Mr.. Padgett wished to
leave he was banded a note which proved
to be from Frank Wilcox, asking Mr..
Padgett to meet him at once IN the back
yard as he wished to settle little natter
with him in friendly way. Mr.. Padgeit,
in good faith, met him as requested.
They met each other perfectly friendly,
nOtwith standing previous hard feelings
between them. Alter spending few
words in frieodlv conversation, MIR.
Wilcox asked Mr.. Padgett If be
had made certain remarks about him.
Mr.. Padgett answered in the Affirmative.
This set Wilcox In rage. He started
for mis- gun, which was but short dis
lance from him, but Padgett covered him
with his pistol and thus they stood for
moment in silence facing each other,
death staring them in the face. Only a
ew steps away in the thick cotton sal
two OF WilcOx's brothers. One had
duube-baIrel shOtgun and the other held
two rifles. Padgett soon took in the sltu-
alton and told Wilcox be could go if he
would not get gun. So Wilcox went one
way aud Padgett the other.
