weeks ago disposed OF his paper and
| straddllng deaf male, set out for the
Black Hills to prospect and improve
his financial condition if possible. Al
vas before mentioned, strong tie oi
friendship exists betwssn the Dakota
governor and the territorial wit and for
some time they have been working up a
scheme for establishing humorous
paper to be published weekly, at som,
town not yet decided upon in the region
OF Devils Lake, Dak. The paper vii
be given o name that will identify il
with the territory and in its character
aud makeup it will be after the ords,
OF Texas Siftings and the Arkansaw W
Traveller. Judging by the success oi
the two papers mentioned above this
| new enterprise will undoubtedly be q
go, as Fred Carruth has proven by his
work on the Bell that he is one of the
brightest humorists of the day, while
Gov. Pierce. in the books he has pub.
| iished and by his newspaper work in
the years past, has given evidence that
he wields forcible pen and has q keen
| conception of the higher order of wit,
He 1s aso ahrewd business manager,
and it is on his ability in this respect
that the success of the paper will chiefly
depend. There is not syndicate OF
capitalists behind the project. It is a
scheme of these two men and the profits
or losses are to be shared equally by
them. Ii the undertaking proves a
success, arrangements will be made for
publishing an illustrated edition
OF the paper both in New York and
London, England. It is rather risky
venture, but it has as wide field before
it, and wider, than did the Texas Sift-
ings or The Arkansaw Traveller.

The WashingtcE correspondent of the
Omaha Bee sends this in relation to
statehood matters pending before con-
gress:
The arrival of members of congress in
anticipation of the coming opening of
the session, causes more general atten-
tlon to be directed to the scheme for
admitting Washington territory to the
union, aud thus add two delegates to the
membership of the senate, which 10 now
very closely divided politically. On the
other. hand, republicans, while not op-
posed to the ad mission of Washington,
the republican majority of the senate
have already passed a bill, and are hope
full that Dakota Will also be admitted,
and IN this they are supported by Rep
resentative Hill, democratic chairman
of the house committee on territories,
who asserts that after visit Just made
to Dakota, he is satisfied there are
6o0,000 people living in the territory,
and great injustice is done them in
Keeping the territory out OF the union.
He says further he intends to do all he
can do to admit Dakota and If this is
done there is little doubt that Washing.
ton will also bs admitted. AS the matter
stands, both bills have been passed by
the senate and are before the house for
consideration, and it would require very
little time to put them through and in
sure the introduction OF both territories
to the Bisterhood of states.

1t is now given out as an understand
ing that Governor Pierce has definitel,
arranged with the president to retire
from his official position on the 1st oi
January. On this subject the Omaha
Bee correspondent says:
A good deal of nervousness is being
shown by the Dakota democrats over
the approaching appointment of gov.
ernor for their territory. Governor
Pierce has resigned, and Will become an
editor again as soon as his successor is
appointed. The democrats OF the terri
tory have been informed that the man
has been determined upon, and they
cannot learn his name. They believe,
however, that he is not resident of the
territory, hence their nervousness
There is provision in the party plat
form adopted at Chicago in 1884 pro-
vIding that territorial offices shall be
filled by residents of the territory where
in the offices are located. Tt is under
stood that Governor Pierce favors the
appointment OF territory man, but he
has no voice in the matter. The ap-
pointment is anticipated daily and is
expected to be roy al surprise to Da-
kota democrats.

the territorial Legislatures. We
are encouraged to believe tina,
these preparations mean something and
that the statehood comedy OF the pas
few years is to resolve itself into 8
reality. The information from Huron
recites:
An exchange of views and thorough
discussion of the situation of affairs and
events that now 30 directly indicate
that Dakota may expect no favors look
| ing toward division and admission al
the hands OF the approaching congress
may develop plans and prompt action
! heretofore thought unadvlsable. The
machinery for state government has
been ready for months and the people
have been quietly awaiting the action
OF the general government to permit
them to set 1t trunning-that permission
has not been granted; now they demand
that 1T be set going and are perfectl,
willing to assume the responsibility, lei
it be what it may.
Ii this be correct outline of the in
tentions of the coming meeting, the
people of south Dakota may look TO,
something interesting before the arrival
of the annual holiday season. The sever.
al announcements of the forthcoming
gathering could not EXHIBIT a more
radical degree of determination had
they been penned by General Campbell
himself as an expression of the views
his followers have rigidly adhered to.
They do not, however, come from that
element of the statehood movement, bu.
from what is known as the conservative
side OF the convention, which operates
under the leadership OF Judge Edgerton
and MIR. Halnes. General Campbell did
not attend the Sioux Fails meeting,
which called the Huron meeting and
asked that the Legislature be convened OF
the same time. Some of his radical allies
were there, notably Judge Owen, but a
majority of the meeting was OF the con
servative stripe end they are Responsible

If the promoters of the Huron gather

this can be constitute o7a'ly and legally
done we do no need u a,pue at this

settled in favor of the proposition that

His Thanksgiving Proclamation and
Hts Future Intentions.

THE PROCLAMATION.
Chicago Inter Ocean: From the bor-
can northwest comes the voice of Gov
ernor Pierce with a ierky, Victor Hugo
kind of opus in a proclamation that has
sort of maggage movement to il. He
announces boldly at the start that "the
hand of justice has moi been stald,' and
that the unregenerate horse thief has
the daylights ierked out OF him by the
simple but effective agency ofn clothes
line and telegraph pole, with as much
yerye and gladsomeness as of yore; that 1t
is still embarrassing, not to say un-
healthy,t to be found with halter in ones
possession. 1t Is gathered in general
way that the great Dakota industries are
thriving, and that tenderfeet and tour
tlsts play no better games of draw than
they did of old, and ada much to the
profit OF the hardy homesteader and pio-
neer. The laws have been observed, /. :.
says he. 1t is cheering to know that
the legal writings OF that profound
jurist Hoyle have not been trampled on
mo social disturbance has affected u.s.
It is again a cause of Thanksgiving to re-
ceive personal assurance from Cover.
nor Pierce that the social, and particn-
larly the church social, no longer breaks
up in bloodshed and manslaughter, as
was formerly the case. Church social
disturbances were once the joy and
maiustay of the coroner. The governor
also festoons his thanksgiving effort
with selections from the poets and other
outcasts, IN manner which shows de en-
culture and great familiarity with the
Dictionary of Poetical Qaotations'
that he carries concealed on his person.
When he exclaims, for instance, with
malice towards none. chicken pie for al 9
he not only irnpresses the Dakota pub
lie with his exhaustive knowledge of the
classics, but be also touches one OF the
most responsive chords Of the human
liver.
