Dakota i'll Congress.


WASHINGTON, January. 12.-Ths report
of the Senate Committee on the Territories
to accompany the bill for the admission OF
the State of Dakota into the Union and the
organization of the Territory of Lincoln re-
ported by Harrison yesterday covers more
than one hundred pages OF manuscript III
addition to its vOiumnOus printed append
ages 1t says that the main proposition OF
the bill is that the proceedings taken by the
people of that part of the present Territory
of Dakota lying south of the forty-sixth
parallel of north latitude, which resulted in
the adoption of constitution by popular
vote November 3, 1885, should be accepted
and ratified by Congress and the State OF
Dakota be admitted to the Union on an
equal footing with other States. The jour
nal of proceedings of the convention are al
luded to as giving evidence of high degree
of intelligence, OF public spirit and in
dustry. The submission of the constitution
iii accordance with the ordinances to vote
Of the electors resulted in the adoption OF
the constitution by majority OF 1S5 to 90,
making it clear in the opinion OF the SEN
ate committee that an overwhelming major
ity of the people of South Dakota approved
of the constitution and desired admission
into the Union. The report considers one
of the most important questions presented
for decision to be whether the steps taken by
the people of South Dakota for the purpose
of securing admission into the Union are
cOnfOrnlable to the constitution OF tbeUnited
States, and to the precedents in such cases.
and expressive of the will of the people,
and cites a dozen or more recent cases,
quoting extensively from the debates in
Congress, and in the light of the presidents
and authorities cited concludes that no just
criticism can be made of the proceedings
taken by the people of South Dakota nor
any of the methods by which they have
brought their requests before the Senate.

Lost ia tas WOOD.

The Duluth Tribune of Thursday
morning contained the following dis
tressing account of the suffering and
death of Miss Ella Hall, daughter of
A. ]. Hall, late proprietor of the
European Hotel, in this city,
and a niece of the present proprietor
of that house. The TINES extends its
sympathy to the afflicted family:
We learned yesterday of very sad
case of death by starvation and expos
ure, which occurred in the woods north
of Tower some little time ago. 1t is
said that man named Hall, formerly
of Superior and more recently Of Tow
er, left that place to return to his
homestead, in town So, range 9, tax
ing with him his daughter Ella aged
about Ii years. Hall is by no means
an experienced woodsman, and it APP
pears that on the way to his home in
the woods he determined to explore
for new route, and leaving his dau-
ghter to take care of his pack, he
started out to blaze out a new trail,
intending to return to her before night
fall. He got lost, which is net sur
prising to those who are acquainted
with the nature Of the country that
he was in, but finally was found by
some Indians, who guided him back
to the spot where he had left his
daughter. Upon his reaching there,
he found his pack but no traces Of the
girl, and altho' he and the Indians
Immediately instituted Il search thro'
the woods, which they kept up for
eight days, no trace Of the missing one
could be -3und. We heard, however,
that the report had reached Tower
that the body Of the poor child had
been found resting against the foot Of
tree and She must have suffered a
lingering death from hunger and ex-
haustion. Only those who have
been hopeless lost in the bush, far
from all traces Of human life or civil
ization, can imagine how fearfully the
poor girl must have suffered before
she suecumbcd and laid down 10 die.
Later reports say that the body
of Miss Hall has not been found up to
Thursday morning.
