MONEY AND EXCHANGES.

The money market during the week, naturally
to the season Of the year. gravitated toward ease
and an abundant supply for all legitimate and
speculative purposes. Added to the usual Treas
ury disbursements for interest, the domestic eX-
changes were turn more favorable to this city,
New-iolk funds at st. Louis rising to 30 cents
premium and Chicago to % cents premium. AT
the South the exchanges are not yet favorable
to New-l ork, but the rates do not permit the
movement OF money away from TINS city, except
through the mex pcnsive machinery OF the treas
ury, by which method $500, 600 was sent TO New
Orleans last week: gold deposited IN the New
York Sub-Ireasury and silver paid out by the New
Orleans Sub-lrcasury. AS there is SlOl 10000
more legal money in the country outside OF thc
Treasury vaults than there was year ago, ana
as the New orll banks now hold So 700, 0OO Tess

In view OF the speedy admission OF
south Dakots, which is now looked for.
ward to with the greatest assurance,
much discussion is INDUCED in over the
name uud which the now state is to
sail. The Sioux Falls constitution pro-
vides that the territory snail be divided
on the seventh standard parallel, and
the south half admitted under the name
OF South Dakota. With great many
tho name is OF secondary Importance
the main obi 'ct being to secure admis-
zion at the earliest possible moment.
There are some who prefer different
name from the one provided for by the
Sioux Falls constitution and among
those who have been able to give very
logical reasons for the faith which il
in them" may be Cited the Yanktor
Press--lfitcheN Republican,.
The Press and Dakotaian does not de-
sire to pursue this matter beyo yond Ies-
son. Ii is possessed OF sincere con
viction that the proposed two Dakotat
have not given sufficient consideration
to the subject OF state names. In thei
anxiety to achieve the blessings OF sell
government they are liable to pass 81
unimportant some OF the important de
tails OF statehood not the least o
these are the geographical designation
OF the two states.

Here is what the St. Paul Globe, on

Here is what the st. Paul Globe, on
the stool of repentance, says:
A year ago, the democrats might iisve
brought In Dakota as one state, with but
two senators. Ii energetic efforts in
that direction had failed the country
would have charged the failure TO the
republicans, and escape from vulnerable
attitude would have been effected, Now
there will no doubt be two states, with
four senators, and no advantage scored
anywhere. IL is safe on the average to
run the party VIE Is IN the grooves of
state smanship, even II they do not seem
to be the most direct channels of sue
cess. The four states now eIamoring for
admission must be accepted, and it will
be graceful act for the democratic
doorkeeper to do the genuhectinR and
escort the applicant in while he Is still
in charge.
The Globe is as much to blame as any
other democratic il rhuence for absolute
denial of governmental rights here in
Dakota. Like its party, it looked only
to the present. AS the acknowledged
organ OF pestiferous brood of carpet
bag officials, it swallowed everything
they bit off and seemed delighted with
the taste, 1t was the sim OF these off,
cials to perpetuate territorial existence
and the Globe gave them all the aid
and comfort at its command.

negro is essential to the south Beliey-
ing this, he 81 ond strive 20 elevate
rather than to degrade him. The negro
is deharred from the important offices in
the south because he csn't give the

"W hat dc you think OF his proposition
to disfranchise the negro?" y
g think ii would restore all the evils
Of slavery with none OF it's benefits. The
old master cared for his slaves from self
interest, and the young master had au
affection for the slaves who nursed him
and grew up with him. All this pro.
aeotion to the slave would be gone, and
with the withdrawal OF the legal righ,
to protect his interest with the ballot
the condition of the negro would be
simply horrible and the effect on the
proeperity of the country would be
equally as disastrous. The negroes o.
any spirit would leave the cotton gtates
and only the most servile would remain
Intelligent white labor, which is essen
tial to the development OF any country

Presid ant Olevelands message does
not excite much interest, probably for
the reason that it is the closing effort
OF an administration recently notified in
emphatic terms that its services are TO
be dispensed with. The free trade
specially cuts quite figure in this
message, indicating that the presidel
knows what killed him and dies game
There is perhaps more pluck than good
sense in this. but stubborn habit is Mr..
Oleveland's leading characteristic. He
insists that he is right and majority of
the American people are wrong. The
message reference to the Lord Sackville
afrsir excites merriment. It looks out
of place In cold bloodei state paper,
as 1t is very generally acknowledged
that the removal of Lord Ssckville was
o campaign dodge TO save votes to
Cleveland. The things the message does
not contain are those which interest us
OF Dakota most intensely. 1t was pre-.
dioted by local partisans that the
president would make some recon
mendatiens relative to Dakota
which would be forerunner
TO congressional action during the win

ed. The president gives no sign of re-
pentance. Again, 10 this, the president
evinces q disposition to die game. The
determination may be oommendable in
him as an individual, but he will hardly
be extolled by his associates for drag
ging his party with him into the narrow
tomb of oblivion. Free trade and denial
of justice to territories have jointly ac-
complished the defeat of the democratic
