The Knights of Labor organization
in ordering strikes and boycotts in diff

greater injury to themselves than they
are TO the capitalists. They may con-
slider it Il great triumph TO strike on a
large manufacturing company and COM
pei an advance Of a few cents i'll wa
ges when large contracts are in pro-
gress of being fulfilled yet the sober
sentiment of all fair minded people
would condemn them as enemies to
their own interest AMI the public vel
fire in general. The intererts of labor
and capital are %coequal. Men who de-
pend upon their daily labor FOR a liz ng
will suffermos, in case of strikes. llaT'
Ian & IIollingsworth, ship builders at
Wilmington, have refused to take a
contract to build two ferry boat because
of the unsettled state Of labor. Also
the jones & Co. morocco manufacture

take any fixed contracts because they
can receive no assurance from their

DAKOTA's CASE.
What the Press Of the Country Says of 1t.

Philadelphia Call: No one but the most
violent Partisan doubts the justice of Da-
kota's claim to statehood, aud therefore
such an abuse OF authority is to be doub-
ly deplored.
Pittsburg Dispatch: We believe that
democratic insislency in this matter and
refusal TO grant the just claims of the
people of Dakota will he found to be a
pretty costly experience for that party.
New York Herald: The people of l,a-
kota want their territory made into q
state, and there seems to be no good rca-
son for refusing them. They haye fram-
ed and adopted - constitution. as they
had right to do, and now offer it for the
adoption of congress-
Sioux City Journal: So far as Tie truth
and justice of the case is concerned, Da-
kota has nothing whateyer to fear, and IN
fact asks nothing but that it's claims be
measured by truth and justice But What
Dakota L lily has to fear is thing called
the Democratic caucus IN the National
House of Representatives.
Washington National Republican,: Del
egate Clifford of Dakota, cites thirteen
States which, when in their Territorial
condition, were guilty of the same CON
structive treason" that Dakota is charged
with, Some of these States, or Terrific
lies, were even more thoroughly stepped
in constructive treason" than Dakota is
or proposes to be.
Washington Republicans: In making
such preparation as they have made to
come into the Union the people of Dako-
ia have not violated any law, fundamen-
tai Or statutory Denial of admission to
Dakota would be simply an outrage on a
great intelligent and progressive commu-
nifty. No party can afford to oppose
Dakota's admission, but the democracy
has done many things that it could NOT
afford.

WASHINGTON NOTES,
Commissioner sparks Opens Up III Il

NeW Direction.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Comnission-
er Sparks OF the General Land Office,
has written letter to law firm in
Kansas in which he discusses the con
tents OF a circular purporting to have
been issued by the parties addressed
The Commissioner says of the circular
that: lit contains false and mislead-
ing statements in reference to the
rights Of soldiers OF the late war to
public land;" and allows the alleged
authors of the circular thirty days in
which to make all explanation, failing
in which they will be debarred from
practice before the Department.
Among the statelnentsin the circu-
lar to which the Commissioner takes ex-
ception are: "The government owes
each soldier and sailor farm OF 100
acres" This says Che Commissioner, is
Il statement that the soldiers and
sailors OF the late war as such are
entitled to 16O acres, which is not
true. "The widows and orphans of
deceased soldiers and sailors can make
entries and secure 16O acres Of cf.oice6
lands without residence" The Com
missioner considers this assertion mis-
leading.
THE NEW YEARS PROGRAMME.
The official programme for the Presi-
dents reception on New Years day
does not differ from that of former
years. The President will be assisted
by Miss Cleveland and the ladies of the
Cabinet. Miss Cleveland's new weekly
ception Saturday afternoon reception
from three till five O'Clock will begin
Saturday January 9th = and continue
through the season.
MRS. GRANTS PENSION.
The President has approved the bills
granting pension to Mrs. Grant, and
removing the political disabilities of
General Lawton of Georgia.
REMOVING THE MOURNING,
The thirty days mourning tor the
late Vice-P President Hendricks haYee ex-
pired and the departments and other
public buildings were divested of their
mourning drapings. The hook and
ladder force was required to remove
the black cloth from the tall pillars Of
the White House portico.

HOW MICHIGAN GOT IN.
A Brief History Of the Circumstance.
Surrounding the Admission Of
Michigan.

Detroit Free Press: The adoption of
state constitution, the formation Of a
state government and the election of
United States senator's by the Territory
OF Dakota before its statehood has been
acknowledged has created considerable
discussion; not more, however, than
dld similar demand by the Territory
of Michigan for admission to the
Union. The contest in congress wac
unusually obstinate, one debate running
for twenty-five consecutive hours. This
was partly due to the application of
Arkansas for admission at the same
time, both sides insisting that the adj
mission of slave state should be ball
anced by the admission of a free state.
or the reverse. The convention to erect
all the territory east of Lake Michigan
into state met in Detroit, April. 1895.
A rational constitution compared with
the later one of 1850 was adopted, and
by the people ratified in October. In
November Stevens T. Mason was elect
ed governor and Edward Mundy lieu
tenant governor; courts were organized
and the legislature at its meeting chose
Lucius Lyon and John Noryell United
States Senators. President Jackson.
who was not much in favor of the adj
mission of the state, removed Mason
from the secretaryship of the territory
and appointed Mr.. Horner, of Virginia.
to that position, with orders not to rec.
ognize the alleged state officers. But
the people refused to recognize him.
and at meeting in Detroit requested
him to leave, which he did afterward.
1t Michigan was state, it was state
out of The Union; had no legal status.
and could have none until congress ad
mitted it. Arkansas was finally admit
ed Internationally; Michigan on con-
dltlon that her people would ratify the
Ohio boundary-about which there
had been some talk of war-and accept
in place of the territory thus given up
the upper peninsula with its mines of
copper and iron, then undiscovered. It
was on the eve of a presidential cleo
tion, and neither party wanted to offend
the comparatively powerful states of
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois by acknowl-
edging Michigan's strong claims to a
more southerly boundary than she
finally got. A state convention at Ann
Arbor in September, 1886, rejected this
condition, bnt another convention.
called there in October by few promi-
nent citizens of Wayne county, ratified
the action Of congress 1t was called
the frost-bitten " convention, because
its members were composed entirely of
those in favor OF accepting the condi-
tions laid down by congress. There was
some opposition in congress to accept
ing this as the act of the people of
Michigan, but on January 2G, 1887, con-.
gress admitted the state by recognizing
The convention as . elected 10y the peo-

You ask what are the chances OF
success. My answer is our success is
certain just in proportion to the pre-
ponderance of justice and right to in.
justice and wrong in the men and tri.
bunal who will determine our cause
have great confidence in the man
who now presides over the the coun-
ellis OF the nation. 1 believe that when
President Cleveland examines the claims
OF Dakota he will decide the case as
statesman who is the ruler ola great
nation and not the deputy of a faction
who seek to subvert the indisputable
landmarks ofour history. Ibelieve that
Mr.. Cleveland will determine our cause
as an impartial Judge in accordance
with the law and the facts, and by so
doing endear himself still more to the
impartial citizens Of the whole Repub-
lie. But if l am mistaken in this and
the President is determined to evade
the question and refer the whole
matter to Congress, l still shall hope
for the best. There are many noble men
in each House, from the North and the
South alike, Republicans and Demo-
Gratis. believe when they fully under
stand cur cause. and are satisfied that
we are not revolutionists, that we shall
have the support Of even South Caroli-
ma. 1 confidently expect when they
know the truth that even Gen. Butler
and Gov. Hampton will support our
cause. They do not understand it.
L confidently believe that many good
men from the South, when correctly in
formed Of the facts, will be supporters
OF the admission of Dakota. shall ex-
pect substantial aid from Missouri. for
no state can or ought to be interested
in the development of the Missouri
Valley more than that great state, and
no city is so deeply interested in our
growth as st. Louis The time will
come in the near future when repre-
sentatives from Missouri will be our
most active allies.
l am asked that if Congress refuses
then what? An appeal to the court of
last resort, the people. There are enough
close districts in the United States
where a few just men next fail will de-
termine who shall represent them in
Congress, men who will not be parties
to great wrong to great people.
Some aggressive Dakotan asks me
II all these fail, what then? [ shall not
attempt to draw the veil between t his
and that almost impossible condition
of things-when the ruler Of a great
people and the Congress of the United
States, and the people of the United
States have each and all perpetrated
great wrong.
Such a condition of things and such
result is well nigh inconceivable.
No, fellow citizens, it can not be. I
have that confidence which assures me
that:
Right will come upparm ost,
and justice shall be done.'
