There was an Indian scare Thursday

settlements and the settlers fed pre-

o THE STATE.

Live'y Local Interest3in the Work
Laid Cat for the Huron Gathering.
Statehood talk has been rifa -pon the
streets and in the business places to-
day, the coming meeting at Huron and
the intimations put forth relative to o
radical course of action by the constitn-
tlonal convention and the legislature
arousing general interest. Yankton
has always occupied a radical position
upon this subject and from tho begin
ming has advanced and advocated the
proposition that the people of south
Dakota Joan create their own state if
they will. Hence the general outside
tendency towards the adoption Of the
Campbell plal at Huron next week
awakens lively tx pect.tions and loyal
endorsement OF the popular statehood
plan.
General Beadle, who returned from
Huron last night, reports intense feeling
or the subject in central Dakota and q
general awakening to the necessities Of
the hour. There was in Huron q strong
belief that the restraining clause in the
schedule would be ~abrogated by the
constitutional convention and the legis-
lature asked to proceed with the state
hood organization. The public fully
realize the Importance of this sal.
which overtu.ns the form Of govern
ment provided by congress and ereels q
system of popular government by the
people and for the people. There is q
deep seated belief, General Beadle says,
that Dakota has passed the limit of its
daty in asking the national government
to grant the. right of citizenship and that
it is now compelled to do for itself that
which the laws and the constitution pro-
vide that it may do after e~zhausting the
privilege of petition. So there is an in
tense interest in what may be done at
Huron next week.
One of the most disting uished res.
dents OF our city and OF the territory
and n of Dakota's coolest headed
statehood men, advances the suggestion
that the members-elect to the territorial
Legislature from south Dakota should
second the expected action OF the state
legislature by remaining away from Bis
marck this winter and thus ignoring
entirely the right of the territorial body
to . legisIate for south Dakota. Tht
gentleman who makes this suggestion
has held the highest position to whlcl
a any Dakotaian has attained end is th'
;, representative of long years of activ'
political experience. He is a man VIII
never advances an opinion until he ha
: it thoroughly digested.
9 Yankton county's legislative member

CONFRONTING A Duly.

-
The constitutional and Legislative
Gatherings Called to Meet ut Huron.
TO TIE Press and Dakotdtan.
DeSmet, OAK. Dec. 9th, 1Ss6-Friends
of statehood 500 meet at Huron. What
shall we there do? We do not go there
to commit suicide. The disposition to
accept some new Observation-Disclosures
without admlssion-the Hill biIl-a new
convention and a different constitution
as soon as a few men talk about it, only
tends to weaken us. We have no assnr-
ance that any bill can pass the house at
Washington which south Dakota can
accept. We are as likely to get the
Harrison bill as any thing. That has
passed the senate. 1t is thus decided
by an august body that We are right in
our position in adopting a constitution
for south Dakota. Let us stand by that
consultation end not vacilliate. 1t is
folly to change front in the face OF tho
enemy. We shall receive nothing from
| Washington until fear drives the house
of representatives to DO Justice. Con.
science makes towards of. Legislators
when they are in the wrong and the
effect OF the wrong begins to appear
before the public. The action Of the
United States government in keeping
Dakota out of the union is revolutionary.
Patriotlsm-love of the union as
we'll as love of Dakota-demanas
that we move forward upon the
line towards statehood which both north
and south Dakota nave agreed that south
Dakota may pursue. We have a state
legislature. 1t is in no manner inn
peded by section thlrty-two of tie
schedule of the constitution. The COZ
stitution is not a grant Of power to the
legislature. The constitution limits the
Legislature. II prohibits special legis-
%lation, but section thirty-two If intended
or ever supposed to hedge in the legis-
lature is a failure in that respect. Notice
its language. The constitutional cor
v~eation should d. mand action and
adjourn SINE die at Huron and the re-
sponsibllty of maintaining the right of
self government must be taken up by
state legislature,
What can be done in view of the limi-
~tations imposed by section thirty-two
upon the executive and the judiciary can
be considered at Huron. There is much
work which the legislature can lawfully
do. We must do only what is lawful.
If the state government meets at Huron
only to pass some resolutions, congress
will look on with complacent sol sfaction
and our day of relief will be indefinitely
postponed at Washington.
