CLIFFORD FEELS GOOD.

Nothing for Dakota.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Of all the
happy faces of the elect and re-elect in
congress, Judge Clifford presents the most
smiling front. True, Mr.. Day ran him
close TO defeat, circumstances being con-
sidered. but Clifford says. Il got there all
the same. and he is pleased. But Mr.
Clifford, in the midst of his complacency,
finds time to say something uncOmpliment-
airy of the Democratic majority in the
house. He remarks, This congress will
do nothing for DakOta's people in the mat
ter of division or of statehood. The house
is afraid to do right. 1t is afraid TO do its
honest duty. DaGOta's votes might decide
the pres uential election, as Colorado did in
1876. We will come in as state in 1888
or 1885, but not before. There never was
more extensively partisan congress than
this one, which accompanies an administra-
ton which is prejudiced avowedly against
perniciOus activity. The house will do
nothing for us unless it is forced to-" The
judge does not allow his intellect to sparkle
on the subject of how to force a majority
to act as the minority shall dictate. 1t is a
great problem.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. There will be
no cessation of activity On the part of those
who are influential in securing the estab-
liShment of two new judicial districts for
Dakota during the present session of con-
gress. Mr.. Randall, the man who holds
the purse strings, has been spoken to upon
the subject. and has expressed all intelli-
gent appreciation of the situation. He did
not say that he would favor the new de
parture. but be did give the visitors to un-
derstand that he would not oppose it. 1t
is not unlikely that further explanations of
the circumstances and needs of the people
will win his advocacy of the cause, which
is certainly commendable. The judicial
districts are not only of enormous proper
tons in Dakota, but it is well known that
their business is rapidly accHmulating. and
that justice is being deferred and punish
mentS delayed by the present condition of
affairs in the several districts.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10-The letter of
Hon. f. NJ. Ziebach. withdrawing from the
gubernatOrial race, was model of elegant
sarcasm. Mr.. Ziebach said his say in a
simply startling to the officials who read it..
He express ed his opinions as freely as
though he were not holding a lucrative
Office under the man to whom his letter was
addressed; and he spoke of the opinion Of
every Democrat in Dakota when he re-
minded the president that there are Offices
to be given out by the governor within the
next few months which aggregate sum of
upwards of $500, 900 in salaries alone; be-
sides the imminent possibilities of wrong
doing on the part of the officehOlders, for
whose integrity the Democratic party is
responsible before the people. In the
same strain, and in the same line Of
thought. is the letter of Hon. John r. Will
son, who addressed letter to the president
upon the subject in words of fire. Dir. Will
son did not tell the president that he was
once the
CHOICE OF THE DEMOCRATS
for their delegate, and that he ran when
Mr.. Cleveland did for president; but a
friend explained to the president who he is
and what ne represents, and his letter
reached the spot. Mr.. Cleveland has seen
some very interesting letters from the En-
pire recently, and not the least influential
was one from Republican at Fargo. He
said, Il am Republican, but l am citi-
zen. l am interested in this territory both
as a business man and as Republican.

Democratic, | want to see a Democratic

want Republican administration of the
territory, tell Pierce SO, and tell HIM to put
only Republicans on guard. In short. be
one thing or the other.'' 1t is said that this
letter went into the interior department
basket, and was not seen by the president
until Secretary Lamar showed it to him
and asked him what to do with it. The
president is reported to have read it care
fully twice or more and then to have said:
