justice but still maintain that it was
entirely expedient, because it was Just
and right and honest.
We are attracted by another express
sien contained within the Mitchell
Republican article which reads as
follows:
Once all sectional difficulties are for
COTTON, ali. personal ambitions buried,
then Dakota can press her claims on
congress with irresistible force.
No sectional differences of magnitude
have presented themselves in the con-
duct of this case. besond the disposition
of Pierre to oppose tfa statehood plan
because its success woul2. confer emolu-
ments upon Huron. Aside from this
feeling no defined local prelaaices have
entered into the contest. ,.Personal
ambition, however, has had altogether
too much 10 do with the result anis.it is
this which shaped the defeat of the
radicals in the convention. In the,
homely phiaseology of the politician,
"there was man to be downed," and
this was accomplished to the temporary
satisfaction of the patriots who
30 skillfally played upon the
weak fears of their associates. 1t is
perhaps fortunate for Dakota that he
bas not fallen SO far as to prevent him
from eventually appearing at the top of
the ladder, There need be no feeling that
he is permanently disabled. Twice he
has been thrown in the arena and twice
his defeat has been accompanied by the
unstinted praises and the earnest
plaudits of those whose mettle has been
put to the severest test III the accom-.
plishment of their object. These praises
and plaudits have come spontan-
eonsly out of that innate human
sentiment against which no man can
stay the tide of Just tribute in behalf OF
recognized ability and honesty of pur-
pose. In such defeat there is every
promise of future success.
The result at Sioux Falls places the
responsibility upon that element which
differed with the other element as to the
methods to be employed in attaining
the desired condition of statehood. They
now have clear field and interrupted
sailing. They have announced their
ability to manufacture state IN their
own way. We watch for developments
with keen interest.

The Mitchell Republican does not cor

The Mitchell Republican does not con-
slider the action OF the Sioux Falls meet
ing OF the constitutional convention as
an Indication that the gentlemen who
favored the repeal of section thirty-two
were in the wrong. IL considers shat
"the majority sentiment of the conven-
tion believed the time had not arrived
for extreme measures" This is in con-
sonance with the expressions OF other
conservative newspapers since major
ity of the convention has decided that
it is dignified and respectable for
Dakota to aatten itself upon its back
and hold up its arms and
legs to be bound by the
Springers OF congress and their sympa.
timers on Dakota soil. The alacrity
with which these newspapers new spring
to the front in implied support of the
propositions advanced by the whilom
'revolutionlsts" led by General Camp
bell indicates that the doctrines adyo-
Gated by that element do not contain 30
many dangerous qualities as the stump
ers and the press induced the people to
believe. They now impute to the
CaEpbellites honesty of pur.
pose, patriotism, unselfsh courage
and q position unassaiIabie and
irrefutable. This is rather
bewildering, coming SO quickly upon
the refusal of the winning faction to
permit the voters OF south Dakota to ex-
press their individual opinions upon SO
important natter. 1t may be also
hattering to the vanity of the so.called
"revolutionists," hattering, at least SC
far as they have any vanity and SO ia,
as an empty honor can be hattering
The Republican in. its comments touches
upon vital point. 1t says:
One thing is absolutely certain: Nc
radical movement will succeed unless
the whole territory is united upon it.
This is conclusion long ago reached
by the Campbellites, who appear tc
possess keener perceptions than this
opposing faction. They have long
striven to inculcate the doctrines o.
right among the masses and they asked
in the late convention only the privileg,
of testing the temper of the masses, tt
ascertain whether or not the territor,
was united in behalf of radical move
ment. But in that convention eevel
men decided that seventy FIVE thousan,
men should be refused the opportunit,
to answer the question: Are you il
favor of radicai action? The advocates o
radical action bow to the will of th
majority and accept tn
edIct then ani ther
promulgated. They do it with no bette
and no worse grace because, after thai
defeat, it is acknowledged by thei
opponents that their cause was jus

Cure For Pies.

Piles are frequently preceded by sense
of weight in the hack, loins and lower part
of the abdomen, causing the patient to
suppose he has some affection of the kid
negs or neighboring organs. At times,
81 nptoms of Indigestion are preeent, az
hatuiency, uneasiness Of the stomach, etc.
A moisture, like preparation, producing
disagree cable itching, after getting warm is
common attendant. Blind, bleeding
and itching Piles yield at once to the ap-
plication OF Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected,
absorbing the tumors, allaying the intense
itching, and etfecting a permanent cure.

General Butler has discovered that th
arduous labors of the president upon his
numerous pension vetoes involved an
entirely unnecessary waste of time and
tissue. There is in existence law which
gives ample power to stop payment of
pensions authorized by special act of
congress and subsequently found to be
fraudulent. This law reads:
The commissioner of pensions shall,
upon satisfactory evidence that fraud
was perpetrated in obtaining such
special acts, suspend payment thereupon
until the propriety of repeating the
same can be recommended by congress.
1t was passed in 1878, under republi-
can iule, and covers all the cases over
which so much presidential perspiratiou
has been shed.

caustic rejoinder to some observations
in that journal of last week rejecting
upon the reverend gentleman's alleged
lack of reverence in asking the question
from his pulpit: "Was Christ Chris
tan Z" He says: The real purport of
my sermon was simply the by no means
unfamiliar thought brought to some
people whether the actual Christianity
of this nineteenth century, alike in its
institutional and dogmatical forms, so
very far from representing the thought
and spirit of the real Jesus of history as
to warrant the question: Was Jesus a
Christian 1 think revere the real
Jesus quite as much as some folks who
are shocked to hear of him spoken of
not as he looks through the means of
their fancy, but as he actually walked
our earth"
