then, to protect ourselves by demand
ing reasonable representation, and al
though we can never hope to secure
the same representation in proportion
to our resources that the east now has,
is it not our duty to demand that Da-
kota, with all her vast wealth and pop
ulation, have the same number of sem
ators as the two little states of Dele
ware and Rhode Island? It is our
duty to protect ourselves in this mat
ter and not be voluntarily Handicapped

IT viii be remembered that one of
the first acts of the administration
after assuming control at Washington
was to sell at auction the horses and
carriages which had been maintained
there at the public expense by "cor-
rupt and extrayagant" republican Of
ficials. Evidently Mr.. Cox, minister
to Turkey, did not concur in this view
OF the matter, for we find that he has
presented the government a bill for
five magnificent horses recently pur-
chased by him in Constantlnople.
Controller Durham has suspended the
item.

The Abe Boynton bill for the di.
vision of Dakota on the Missouri river,
introduced by Mr.. Frederick, of Iowa.
is quite a singular document. 1t docs
not provide that foot of public land
shall be given to the state for state
purposes, neither does it ask for a per
centage of the money paid the govern
ment for lands after the territory is
organized as a state. The custom
has always been to deal literally with
new states in these particulars, but
Mr.. Boynton evidently thinks the peo-
pie of Dakota have no need Of such
concessions. What is sIill more singu-
lar, the bill provides merely for the
holding of a convention to draft con-
stitution and says nothing about the
people having the privilege Of rejecting
it if it should be obnoxious; in fact it
debars the people from having any
voice in the matter further than to
elect delegates. Neither does it give
any assurance that congress will adj
NIT the state after it has adopted a
constitution. Altogether, the bill is d
singular production and reflects the
capabilities Of the source from whence
it sprung.

THAT usually accurate paper, the
New York Sun, permits its Judgment
to be SO biased by its wishes as to say
that a large portion of the population
OF Dakota prefer the territorial form
OF government to statehood. This
statement is either a willful falsifica-
ton OF indisputable facts or an exhi-
bition of gross ignorance. The Sun
knows, or at least should know, THAT
not one thinking man in all this broad
dominion entertains any such belief
and that those who express it do so
purely from PARTISAN motives. We
are surprised that the Sun should make
such an exhibition of its ignorance OF
its selfshness.

A Tenderfoot,s SAD Fate.

Ont ON Dalotavs barren plain
A Michigander stood;
He looked around, but all IN VAN,
To sind one sfick Of wood
He looked, and then he heayrd sigh
At his bleak and lonely claim:
And took one Swig Of alkzli
And then he talked profane.
He thought of money he had spens
To reach that cursed land,
Then into his abode he west
To clear hrs eyes from sand.
just then he heard a fearful roar,
The sand flew thick and fast
HcJumped to reach his criiar door,
But that jump was his last.
For cyclone caught him in his grasp
And wfriried him round and round:
And his soul went up with saints TO bask,.
But his body was never found
y. x. $. in Portland mich J Review.
But when hfssoul had rcschesAt the gates
Where Peter stood on guard,
The writing in the book cf fates
His further progress barred.
For there il was in black and white.
AS plain as plain could be,
"No Michigandery enter here
They he to much, you see.
Old Peter said that no man 5 souF
Could rest in heaven in peace
When he was such shiftless fool
During his days of grace
As to live for a time IN Michigan.
Where the ague had full sway.
And withered his bones and sinews So,
That zephyr blew him away

WHAT better argument can be pro-
duced in favor of dividing Dakota
than that which presents itself in the
question pending before congress to
demonetize silver or to stop the further
coinage of it? The question is simply
between the capitalists of the east and
the producers of the west whether the
former by making money dearer and
scarcer can add to the value of their
millions by legislation, or whether the
dollar of the masses is to continue to
represent a hundred cents worth of
labor. With very few exceptions, east
ern congressman favor suspension and
western members oppose it, and the
late of the bill will ultimately depend
upon the strength of the two sections.
Nor is this the only sectional issue.
The east is arrayed against the west iii
the matter of the tariff, than which no
grosser outrage was ever perpetrated
upon a long-suffering people. The
agriculturalists of the west have been
paying tribute to eastern capitalists sor
the past twenty years protecting in
FAINT industries as they call it, and,
apparen ", Judging by their own
claims, these industries are still wear
ing swaddling clothes, with no indica-
lions of ever donning maturer raj
ment. Every farmer who purchases
a self. binder pays bonus of hund-
red dollars to the monopolists. He is
forced to do so because the duty upon
such articles is one hundred per cent
and the manufacturers are able to
combine and set their own price be-
cause foreign competition is virtually
excluded. III these binders could not
be manufactured as cheaply In the
United States as elsewhere, then we
should be willing to pay little more
for them in order to encourage home
industries, but when it comes to doub-
ing up on the price it must be that
they are imposing upon us for cur
liability. FL TiIe same binders which
cost us here 1925 are shipped to Au-
stralia and sold there for $3.50, the
manufacturers paying the freight all
that enormous distance. The ma
chimes are manufactured of the same
material in the same shops, but the
difference is that the Australians are
not patriotic enough to pay the extra
800 merely to build up institutions
that become menaces to their welfare.
No tariff can do as much for the AM
erican wheat producers, and we do not
know of single instance where farm
ers are benefited IN any manner by|
the tariff. Should farmers agitate the
granting of bonus upon every BUSH
el Of wheat raised, the howl the manu.
facturers would set up would resound
from Dan to Beersheba and resemble
the noise made by the women of Ju-
deawhen they refused to be comforted,
Yet one is certainly as much entitled
to it as the other. The difference is
that il is the other fellows corns
which are trodden upon. The fact
that our grain markets are controlled
by Liverpool, or in other words, by the
price in countries to which we export
the cereal, is indisputable evidence that
home consumption has very little in
fluence. The two leading political
parties, as parties, entertain the came
views upon this matter, both have re-
fused to grant us relief, and this, too,
has become question of the east
against the west. Is it not our duty,
