ONE of the unwise features of the Far
60 convention, or rather one of the fool
ish "breaks" of some of the members Of
that convention, was the introduction Of
a preamble reciting q desire to put the
Black Hills out of the bounds of Dakota,
and declaring large proportion of the
people of that section to be "non resi-
dents' who delve In the mines like serfs. ="
If the presence of the fool killer could
always be secured at conventions, and he
would perform his mission we'll, 1t would
save the discreet members great deal of
vexatious explanation if not modification.
What under heaven ever possessed any
one to offer such an insult to the people
OF the gold regions of the territory is past
finding out. The Alert will assume to
speak for the people of North Dakota in
unequivocally and emphatically repudiat-
ing and denounclng such sentiment.
The sentiment was smothered IN the con
ventlon, 1t is true, but it was published in
the proceedings and has done its evil
work almost as fatally rs if it had been
sanctioned by the convention, and all that
can be done to remedy 1t is for the press
of North Dakota to repudiate and lie.
nounce it for the people who were mis-
represented by it,

SENATOR Harrison has investigated the
matter of Hugh J. Campbell's connec-
ton with the Louisiana counting out
business and assures Campbell that he
did not exaggerate the facts in his re-
jolnder to Senator Vest few days ago,
and the Press and Dakotaian burdens its
columns with the information as if it
were matter of interest to any one ex-
cept Campbell himself. Campbell is the
deadest political duck that ever lived in
Dakota and very few care continental
what becomes of him. Dakota has too
many live questions to deal with to waste
time and words over this political corpse.
Ills own section and the only section of
the territory that cared anything for him
denied him the empty honor of an cleo
ton to the Office Of United States senator
for the phantom and revolutionary state
he had labored so strenuously to erect
and that act of ingratitude froZe him out
of Dakota politics. Campbell is q man
of considerable ability and a super-abun-
dance of gall, but he bit off more than he
could masticate and he Is LAID on the
shelf. He has no friends in North Dako-
tn to mourn for him and very few in the
southern part.

Is a Woman Person. or an Angel!

The Mandan Pioneer has the following
on the subject: ''The question whether
woman is person has just come up in
Minnesota, this time in connection with
cemeteries. by the statutes "any num-
Der of persons not less than seven' may
form cemetery association. Alta meet
ing lately held in Kasson, Mimi, to form
such an association, woman's 8 name was
proposed as one of the trustees A doubt
was raised whether women were legally
persons, and it was decided to exclude
women until the next annual meeting, by
which time legal advice could be obtain
ed. Mrs. II. M. White, one of the ex-
cluded, wrote to the attorney general at
st. Paul asking his legal opinion as to
whether she was person. The attorney
general promptly replied that she was
and that the opposition could have no
ground to stand upon, "unless those
who hold that women are not persons
should contend that they were angels,
and hence would never require bur1al.''

As Might Have Been Expecte d.

The Yankton Press s. Dakotaian
''catches on'' to that foolish break made
in the Fargo convention as follows:
The true purpose of the Fargo conven-
ton seems to be revealed in resolution
presented by the chairman of the COM
mlttee to which was referred the question
OF division aud admission. This resolu-.
ton, after long and tiresome list of
"whereases," recites that the convention
is in favcr of division on the Missouri,
cor in such manner as to throw the Black
Hills out Of the boundaries of Dakota"
One section OF the preamble declares that
large proportion of the Hills is com
posed of mon residents who delve in the
mines like serfs'' 1t is these "serfs' from
whom the royal blooded wheat growers
of the north desire to separate themselves
and for this reason they appeal to con-
gress to give to Dakota the unnatural
division called for in their resolution.
The object of the convention is to COM
plicate matters at Washington, with the
hope that thereby the efforts of the south
to separate itself from the north will
prove failure, and that our statehood
project will 60 to pieces IN the contention
to be prcclp!tated by these schemers.
The northern Dakota convention has
been from its inception practically in the
control of the element popularly known
as "the gang" TEey caught up Dele
gate Gitford's suggestion of convention
which would represent the true sentiment
of the north, and have turned 1t into
| convention which represents anything but
| that statement. y The residents
of the south will not look with much
complaceucy upon the conclusions of this
alleged misrepresentive convention of
the north, and more especially will the
so-called "serfs' and 'non-residents' OF
the Black Hills cry out against them.
| The effect will pe to render lEpregnable
the solidity OF the south.

THE wheat market has been quite sick
for a week past and the wheat option
dealers have been going about on crutch-
es for the same length of time. Gram
option gambling is the only species of
that demoralzing fascination that is
worse than poker gambling. 1t Is not
only worse because of the larger amounts
of money staked on the deal but because
it draws into its Unsuitable clutches church
members and Others who ought to be and
are looked upon as exemplary leaders of
society and models for the young men
who are entering upon the business stage
of action. So lar as anything legitimate,
real and tangible is concerned man
might just as well buy up an option of q
number of the front seats in the kingdom
of heaven with the expectation Of selling
them again at an advance as to buy an
option OF wheat which he never expects
to receive and which Is not intended to
be delivered by the seller. Why not call
the thing by its right name and say gam
bling in wheat instead OF dealing in
wheat optionsf People are often lured
into evil by Disgusting its character in an
euphoniaus name, and this is a case oi
that kind. Children are taught in the
family and in the Sunday school to avoid
gambling. Older people are warned
against it by the press and the pulpit

obtain something for nothing. 1t is a
premedltated attempt to gain at the loss
Of another.

THERE will probably be some non res
ident speculators who will refuse to pay
the taxes assessed upon the railroad lands
they hold by purchase on account of the
supreme court decision IN the Traill coun-
ty tax case. This may provoke or influ
ence others to refuse to pay, and some
means, if any effective means can be de-
vised, should be adopted by the citizens
to compel all to pay their taxes. Wheth-
er these lands purchased from the rail-
road company are technically taxable or
not is question upon which attorneys
differ because the lienof the government
upon them for the cost If survey is not
discharged by the transfer of the lands
from the corporation 20 the individual.
This lien IS security for the payment Of
the cost of survey, not an indemnity
against taxation, and p ay be discharged
by the payment of the survey fee by any
person or corporation without prcjudic-
ing the rights of the owner. Let it be
determined on the psrt of the county
commissioners, backed mp by the people,
that the survey fee will be paid by the
county and the government lien be DIS
charged on all such lands where the own
er refuses to pay the tax assessed against
them, which will render the lands liable
to sale for taxes without legal quibbie or
question, and very few il any will refuse
to pay. In case any such survey fee
should be paid by the county it could be
collected from the railroad company, for
while it would discharge the government
lien 1t would not release the railroad COM
pany from Its obligation to pay the fee.
The railroad company has given seeming
ly authoritative assuranccs that these sur
yey fees will he paid long before the next
delinquent tax sale, and if the company
does not the county should prepare to do
so and by this means force every land
owner to bear his just proportion of the
burdens of taxation. In view of these
easy and effective means of enforcing the
collection of taxes on railroad lands IN
the hands of individual purchasers it
would be supreme folly tor any one to re-
fuse TO pay the taxes assessed against his
lands or even to defer payment until the
penalties tor delinquency have accumu-
lated.

The StOrm.SWept South.

The north pole must be out of place.
While we have been enjoying phenome-
nally mild winter up here IN the North
west, the cold wave which swept over the
Southern states last week was the sever
est that has visited that section for the
last half century, and IN some places
was unparalleled. At Raleigh, n. c.,
the thermometer fell to l50 below zero,
which is the lowest record since 1885. In
Virginia 1t registered as low as 20 and
25o degrees below in many localities, and
ice formed on the streams to the thick
ness of from six to ten inches. At Chat
tanooga, Tenn, the thermometer stood at
- below, the lowest record heretofore
being L. below Kentucky shows up
with a report of 17o below, while in
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and other
Southern states the thermometer went
down beyond the memory of the Oldest
inhabitant. The severity of the cold
spell was felt more in Texas than else
where. The storm was without parallel
in that state, and resulted in an enormous
loss of cattle. All water pools and
streams throughout the heavy cattle
growing district were frozen up. Snow
fell to the depth of two and three inches
as far south as the twenty-seventh paral.
lei, below Laredo, on the Rio Grande.
People who were born and raised in Gal
weston and had never seen snow flake
were treated to the sight of real storm.
1t fell to the depth Of three inches, and
created the widest excitement in the
gulf city. The entire population flocked
out into the streets, and for the first time
Galveston enjoyed one day of snow car
nival. Snowballing was the popular
amusement, men, women and children
all joining IN the sport. Judging from
local accounts Galveston was very proud
of its snow storm, and so enthused are
the people over it that in all probability
they will soon be talking up an ice palace.
