It is proposed now in democratic quarters to
counterbalance the admission of republican
Dakota into the union by making n state of
democratic Washington Territory. 1t is a
hardship upon the people of Dakota. who have
two or three times the requisite population for
state TO keep them out until a political offset
can be secured. but there is reason why
Washington Territory should not be admitted
now. Though 1t has not filed up with such
marvellous rapidity as Dakota, still II has had n
steady and lately an accelerated growth that
has brought its population up to about i "a, 900.
Like Dakota too it has an intelligent, industr-
Gus and energetic population, exceptionally
well qualified to undertake the duties of state
hood. In both territories TIE first step taken
has been TO establish first-class school system
and nothing strikes the visitor with more sur
prise than to find everywhere there school
buildings that for taste in design and fitness
Tor practical use would put to shame the school

DAYOFF-

Last Monday we accompanied G. a.
Spaulding 10 Planview, where he was
to speak in the evening, going via Mar
vim and Big Bend. Westopped a short
time at Marvin where we fonnd e.
Miller basily- engaged putting up q
large two story furniture store, a strue-
ture that viii add greatly to the town.
Bro. Ford, of the Monitor we found
had just moved into more comm0dious
quarters the Old post Office building.
where me win have room according to
bis strength. c. II. Edgecomb the
veteran druggist of this place informed
us that he shall curtal or cease his
drug business and put in a stock OF
hardware We called on N. B. Colby
and Strong. Cronk & Co., but found
them Too busy to chat much with the
poor scribe.
The little town OF Big Bend was CON
siderably agitated over the MarEndale
scandal in that place. Mrs. III having
lett a day or so ago, no one knows
where. Mr. Martind4Ie has lust erect
ed a large frame house, the largest in
the place, and in case he Is obliged to
leave, he Will have left monument to
ms industry as well as his other char
acterisucs. Big Bend is certainly well
located as the soil at that point would
support nothing else, but the surround
ing country is unsurpassed in fertility
by any section of the county. From this
place we went south To PlaihviaW
against one Of the strongest zephyrs we
have experienced Tor some time. The
meeting in school district 50 was fairly
attended and George worked just as
hard as though there had been acres of
people. We have no doubt but chat he
would have made converts, but j. z.
Hicks, our next Clerk of the District
Court and chairman of the meeting
rose at the close of GIr. SpauIding's
speech and stated that there was not
Democrat or &. b. in the house. We
stopped over night with mr., Hicks and
found him q courteous and oDligiug
gentleman and as an official is bound
to meet with favor.
On our return we passed Uncle Ed
Aibaugh's claim and was impressed
with the appearance of several acres Of
young timber. rs fine as ever grew on
a Missouri bottom, Notwithstanding the
fact that this is on the highest point
in this section of the country.
This growth of trees are Magnolia
and Russian Mulberry, both Of which
seem TO stand dry weather better than
the lime honored cottonwood.
Altogether it was a pleasant trip and
with the exception of a stumble into a
prairie dog hole, which nearly deiaol-
ished the buggy shafts, We reached
Phillips5urg In safety.

On last Saturday evening III. III.
Boyd, OF the Logan Freeman, and L.
i. Fuller. q land broker OF kirWn,
both knights of Labor in high standing
hArrangued the people of FhIIpsburg
on the ''real % issues OF the day
Air. Boyd took the floor and said ms
piece quite nicely considering thaG
his hearers were mostly Republican
and the subjects with which he dealt,
VIZ: % CrGuks' and -iHUW Mcbride
uIdn' pass good railroad laws 80 We
have no criticisms TO offer on the first
as we believe Boyd had needed the adj
vice In that familiar QuoLaLiUn from
Pope That says, know first Uhy5elI
etc " bat when he came TO compare
himself TO Washington We thought
that either he didn't know himself as
we'll as he might or he had forgotten
the cardinal virtues for which George
was so famous. The latter part of his
talk was to upbraid AlcBride Tor not
reforming the state legislature, while
all iuVesliga shows th4J Mcbride
was squarely against the railroad every
time and did all that one man could be
expected to do We suppose BOYD
thinks that he would constitute 8 ma
5Ority at Topeka and have things all his
own way
Mr.. Fuller next took the floor and in
nice little speech OF an hour and
forty minutes presented his catechi- m
with considerable ability bat with a re ~
'0reaks' that 50 painfully displayed
his ignorance on the true philosophy OF
the questions he so glibIy handled that
Lamb Or Boyd would do well to revise
this code and bring il mp To da1e. His
delivery was highly eiOcutionary and
when he WaXed elOqueus and extended
his lilly white hands and WaEy Uapered
fingers in his stirring appeals Tor -'us
