Bismarck weekly tribune., 1886-07-23


The Minneapolis Tribune publishes
the statement that 2O5 miles of new rail-
road track was laid last week. This prac-
tically completes the record of the first
half of the year, and brings the total up
to 1850 miles, against Lilo in 1885, 1,416
in 1884, 1891 in 1883, 4,75s in 1882, 2,41s
in 1881, and 1928 in 1880. The new con-
struction is not up to the estimates
formed previous to the labor troubles,
which undoubtedly checked many new
enterprises, including railroad building.
It is noteworthy fact, however, that
work is now being actively pushed in
many directions, and there is every rea-
son to believe that the remaining months
Of the year will result in large addition
to the mileage of our railway system.

The following bit of repartee in Judge
Francis court at Valley City is reported
by the Fargo Argus: "Judge Francis is
noted for his punctillous regard for the
decorum and dignity of his court. The
following incident, said to have occurred
at Valley City on Thursday last, illus
trates how grave counsellors at law will
sometimes unbend and have their little
Joke: A large dog Of the bull species
walked upon the platform and sat beside
the judge, looking at the audience, where
upon Counsellor Stone remarked that
the statutes of Dakota did not provide
for more than one judge. Instantly Judge
Francis retorted that the addition was
out of consideration for the distinguished
array of counsel. Then Counsellor
Greene, who was opposed to Mr.. Stone
on this occasion, remarked that the extra
judge was necessary to prevent counsel
from bulldozing the COURT

J.H. WILLIAMSON, we'll known by all
old timers in Bismarck as superintendent
of the Bismarck and Miles City express
line away back when the Northern Pa
cifc ended at the Missouri river, was a
passenger on yesterdays west bound
train, Gu route to Custer, where he goes
to wind up the business of the Custer
and Maginnis stage line. Mr.: William
son has just come from the southwest,
where he has large cattle interests. He
says severe drouth is raging through
out Kansas, and unless rain comes very
soon the corn crop will be ruined. The
drouth extends all over the southwest.
Thus Dakota has nothing to complain
of-more than her neighbor states and
territories. v

COLONEL PECK, of Central Dakota, and
Colonel Sheafe, of South Dakota, are
both prominently mentioned for congress
the latter a democrat and the former a
republican. Both are said to be good
fellows is General Dennis, of Yank-
ton,-all military fellows-yet they allow
the newspapers down there to slander the
militia and especially Governor Pierce
by publishing the statement that it cost
$50 day for horse for himself to ride
at the Fargo encampment, and his staff
officers in proportion, when they know
better and ought to say so-in papers
like the Yankton Herald and Press and
Dakotaian which originate the ISLANDERS.

ACCORDING to the John Smith Wash
ington correspondent Of the Globe,
"there is a niger in the wood pile, =
which accounts for the delay in the con-
frmation Of Captain Maratta, al
though Captain Maratta has been in
Washing ton several weeks and is unable
to find any opposition. Edmunds has
nothing against him, the Camerons are
all right, there is no one saying a word,
and yet it is held stthere in some cowardly
design to defeat him." says the inspired
correspondent. There seems to be a
great deal Of bluster over nothing in this
matter. 1t is doubtful if Captain Ma
rata has one-half the opposition the
other Dakota appointments have had.
Captain Maratta allows his friends to be
slandered without a word of protest He
doesn't have as thorough an appreciation
of the ''golden rule" as it is we'll for
friends to have who intend to dwell to-
gether right along.

The jamestown Capital (democratic)
summarizes about all the present con-
gress has done as follows: us-.r,.+..
An amendment to the oleomargarine bill
reducing the tax on bogus butter from five
to two cents a pound has been adopted by
the United States senate through the ef-
forts of Senator Ingalls,, of Kansas. This
amendment is supposed to be in the inter-
est of rubber boot and hoe manufacturers.
Rubber boots are used to protect the feet
OF the men who stand in the vats, and hoes
for mixing, like mortar. the melted ingredi-
ents Of oleomargarine such as talloW and
soap grease. Butter made in this way is
put into the city markets and served from
silver butter dishes at the tables of aristo-
cratic families when members of congress,
ministers of the gospel and other high
toned gentlemen dine with them. This is
the bill that has occupied large portion
of the time of the present session of con-
gress and was considered so much more
important than the South Dakota state
hood bill that the latter received but little
attention. When the bogus butter question
is settled to the satisfaction of it's manufac-
turers, Hugh Campbell may present his
statehood scheme with some hope of a
hearing for his cause.

remain in the Black Hills and practice

bers Of the bench. His decisions IN all

invariably been sustained. AS his term

The public spirit of the citizens of
Madison is commendable. The territor-
ial normal school at this point burned
last spring, but with determination
equal to the emergency the citizens i'm
mediately subscribed enough money
$4,000 TO rebuild the structure, depend
ing entirely upon the next legislature to
reimburse them. The corner stone of the
new structure was laid Tuesday and the
building will be rushed to completion
this fall. This Madison normal school
is one of the best institutions of learning
in the territory and the enterprise of the
citizens of that city in rebuilding it is
worthy of reward at the hands of the
legislature this winter.

veyors and the right of way men of the

The jamestown Capital thinks Judge
Francis is not bidding for the farmer
vote. In opening court at Valley City
he warned those who were in the habit
of going without their coats not to do so
in the court room, as that habit, perhaps,
as much as any other, was the cause
of the ridicule cast at western courts.
"If this we're permitted" said the court,
''some good honest farmer would be in
here dressed in a red flannel shirt, with
his suspenders trailing down.

The Mandan Pioneer contains the fol-
lowing piece Of railroad intelligence:
.s.Mr. John Fogarty has received a letter
from friend who is in the employ Of
Winston Bros, the railroad contractors.
The letter says that these contractors
have taken a contract from the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad to grade
a road to Bismarck from Glendale, and
have begun work. The Omaha road, he
says, will soon be in Bismarck. This is
good news for the Missouri slope. It
means business for Mandan. The rail
roads that come to Bismarck will pro-
mote the growth Of Mandan, as the roads
that run into Council Bluffs have pro-
NOTED the growth of Omaha

A PETITION was presented to the coun-
Gil last evening for the opening Of Front
street between Second and Third, thus
affording the residents and property own
ers on the low lands an opportunity OF
getting up town by direct street. The
argument is advanced that had this street
been in condition for travel few nights
since, the engine might have arrived in
time to prevent the total destruction OF
the Selle residence. This is also believed
to be the most feasible route to the
river at least until the city is able to
expend a large sum for grading some
other street. @.

The Jamestown Capital, were it not
democratic, would not presume on SO
much influence for territorial delegate
as to attribute the defeat of the Dawes
bill for the opening of the great Sioux
reservation to the "sheer neglect" OF
Judge Clifford. The Dawes bill, like
many other just measures, has been de-
feated by the stupidity of democratic
congress. The most careful microscopic
observations fail to disclose anything of
general Importance or benefit to the
country done by this congress.
