cans had made mistake in Dakota in
not sending their universally recogniz-
ed leader to the senate instead of a
couple of men who were known to be
secondary in the matter of statehood
and division. The democrats have no
natural leader. They are organizing,
and they seem to be cyrssallzing on the
idea of "anti-bosslsm." There is an
independent element in the party
which is dominating it. The day of
dissension has passed. The party
which was not born. but was truly en-
bryotjc two years ago, is now solidly
growing youth, rapidly approaching
manhood. 1t has ability, and there
need be no trouble in completing an
organization at the Aberdeen conven-
tion. The choice of the party for the
congressional nomination will be the
recognized leader, whether he be cleo
ted or not, But The probabilities are
that on the issue presented by the
republicans the democratic candidate
will win. 1t is unfortunate that so
many OF the ablest men IN the parry
have been shelved bv their propensity
for office holding Under the presi-
dents order, none of them can attend a
convention or be candidates for elective
office. This state of affairs removes
from the possibility of candidature Zie.

this is that there is no probability that
Clay county will get the member to the
upper house of the Legislature, and the
doctor does not want to go to the lower
house. 1t was for while thought that
this county would get the council mem,
Der for the reason that Union and Lin

Watertown Courier News: The time
for work has come, only nne month will
nave elapsed before the republican ter
ritorlal convention meets at Yankton.
1t will probably be the only occasion
when the representative republicans of
Dakota can meet for consultation before
the congressional election in the states
1t will be the proper occasion for the
friends of division and admission, north
and SOUTH to take definite action in the
matter of bringing the cause of Dakota
directly before the people of this nation
as an issue no longer to be avoided or
deferred, The course to pursue is a
proper matter for discussion at this
time. The plan we propose Is not a
novel one, neither is 1t original with the
Courier News, but 1t is what in our
Judgment seems the common sense
tnlng to do at this juncture. We believe
the story of the outrageous treatment
Dakota has received at the
hands of the democratic party is
the strongest argument that can
at this time be used against the
dominant party. We believe that no
one can tell of the wrongs and hardships
our people suffer at the hands of demo-
cracy so foicibly and effectually as re-
publican Dakotaians. We believe that
there are hundreds of loyal patriotic
men IN this territory who will gladly
sacrifice their personal interests to go
out into the states to wage battle for
the rights of Dakota and to assist in
the overthrow OF tyranlcal democracy

purpose of sending large number of
our best speakers out into those con-
gressional districts where their assist
ance will be most needed. Then let us
begin operations at once. Let the
republican press join III request to
Judge Clifford that he lay this PROPOSE
ton before the congressional republican
committee and secure the cooperation
and assistance of that commmittee in
furtherance of the plan, Let
us all discuss and suggest ways
and means for best proceeding in the
matter, to the end that when the re-
publicans meet at Yankton, they may
have well formulated plan of action
mapped out, and 80 be prepared to take
decisive and intelligent action at once.
Let us up and at it from this time. AT
home we are handicapped, disfrancbised,
powerless to do aught to right our
| wrongs or remove the yoke of our
oppression. Outside we can make our
| selves heard and felt, and be powerful
ally to our republican brethren of the
east in the mighty conflict which shall
next November drive the now dominant
party, covered with shame and confusion

ing Indebtedness, and given the people
of the various counties and cities the

One of the most curiously original col
elton of books in any library Is snd Is
lie botanical collection at Warsenstciu
Germany. At first sight the volume,
appear like rough blocks Of wood but
on closer examination it is found that
each is a complete history of the partic,
ular tree which it represents \, the
back of the book the bark has been re-
moved from a space large enough to ad
nit the scientific and the common name
of the trees as tile. One side is form
ed from the split wood Ofthe tree, show
ing its grain and natural fracture; the
other shows the wood when worked
smooth and vanished One end shows
the grain as left by the saw and the
oteer the finely polished wool. On
opening the book one finds the fruit,
seeds, leaves and other products of the
tree. the moss which usually grows upon
its trunk, ana the insects which feed
upon the various parts of the tree. To
all this is added a well-priNtel descrip-
ton of the habits. usual location and
manner of growth of the tree.
