EXCELLENT REASONS.

The Division of Dakot Considered
from n social and Moral standpoint.
Carthage GDakl Prairie Home.
From a private letter from General
Hugh j. Campbell to a gentleman of
this village, we are permitted to publish
the following sentences touching his |
position upon the great underlying ques-
ton soon TO claim the attention OF the ,
| people of Dakota and the United States:
sit does not need u prophet TO see
that the great social questions are fast
looming up on the horizon, and soon
| will be the master questions that will
divide political parties.

wave, as it were, which Is enveloping all
christendom in its storms.
"The reason of Americas being-the
purpose for which all our previous his
tory has been written-was to furnish a
fair field, upon which the people might
work out these problems u~ntrammelled
by the privileges of caste, the power of
governments from above, or the tyranny
of vast vested rights.

the people Alright IN high public station,
whose breadth OF vision is not wide
enough, and whose courage is not strong
enough to take in this great movements,
and plant himself firmly and patiently
in line with its advance.
For this reason, above all, do al
lovers of Dakota desire thar in the very
foundations of her government shall be-
imbedded the great basic principles O
+ these social reforms.
"And for this reason, as our popula

north Dakota, in their surroundings
their controlling interests, and thei
freedom from the overshadowing powe.
of great corporations, do our people IN
lstinctively feel that the path of safety
lies IN q separation from the influence
and the methods which control nortl

Mr.. EDWARD ATKINSON, the able pollti.
cal economist who has made q special
study of the labor and manufactures Of
the country, argues against any COM
pulsory eight hour syetem, on the
ground that eight hours work o day
will not suffice TO properly feed, clothe
aud house the people OF the country;
but he qualities this by the admission
that production Ia increasing for more
rapidly than wealth or population. The
mechanics and factory hands got % per
cent, more wages than In 1866, while
the prices Of 200 oithe principal articles
Of general consumption average 80 per
cent less. The Increased production
will gradually shorten the hours Of
labor. While the demands and necessi-
Ties OF the population are constantly In
creasing, the power Of supplying them
IL increasing still faeter, and the hours
Of labor can consequently be greatly
reduced. MIR. Atkinson thinks II too
carly yet 10 adopt tho eight hour system,
which would not be able just now 10
supply oil the clothing, food and other
necessities we require, but will do 90
within q very fow years. The workmen
themselves, he thinks, cannot be made
10 unite for such change. II may be
applied TO certain occupation, but not
