IHE newspaper correspondents, nota.
bly, the New York Tribune and Chicago
Tribune, and some members of congress
including Chairman Platt of the senate
committee on territories, are severely
criticising the Springer omnibus bill and
the democratic caucus conclusion. They
say it is a trick and means mischief.
They see obstacles, obstruction and gen
uine opposition in the patriotic outburst
of king caucus. Platt says the business
must go on singly and not in ssplatoons
of fire." The greasers of New Mexico
can't walk into the union shoulder to
shoulder with stalwarts of the two Da-
kotas. Springer would make admission
into the union, in Platt's opinion, farce.
Twenty-three members of congress
joined in telegram to the jamestown
statehood meeting congratulating the
people of North Dakota upon the pros
pect of their speedy statehood after the
4th of March. That does not mean the
omnibus bill. Among the signers of this
dispatch are Reed, Mckinley, Burrows
and Payson.

ings. The daily TRIBUNE, which Won
such an enviable reputation for it's re.
ports during the last legislature will
during the coming session, eclipse if pos
slble, any previous effort. It will con-
tain the proceedings of both houses each
day, and in addition furnish the gossip
of the lobby and "third house," All
bills introduced will be explained, and a
complete record of the doings of the
various members, both in committees
and legislative debate will be taken and
published. In short, the daily TRIBUNE
will be made indispensable to those
who desire to keep thoroughly posted
during the legislature. It will be sent to
any address during the legislature for
$l.5O. Those who subscribe now will
get the paper from date without extra
charge. This is a reduction of 50 cents
over two years ago, and those who sub
scribe now will pay no more than those
who subscribe after the legislature be-
gins. Much valuable territorial matter,
historical, statistical, ETC., will be pub.
ished prior to the convening of the leg.

plainly SO that there may be no mistake
about the address.

JUDGE MOODY made a speech at Dea

JUDGE MOODY made speech at Dead
wood during the campaign in which be
roasted Mr.. Cleaveland. Spoke of him
as all expert chinch player. The Rapid
City Republican published his speech
and sent copy to Cleveland, marked.
Moody had been influential in keeping
the United States land office at Dead
wood when it was decided to move it to
Rapid City two years ago. Cleveland
knew that fact and he naturally expected
courteous treatment from his Deadwood
influence. When he got thu Republican
containing Moody's roaster he decided
to move that land office if it cost him
leg. Therefore Moody and the Republi-
can are largely to blame for the removal
that is now taking place. Moody fur
nished the dynamite. His influence
with President Harrison may move it
back.

BISMARCK seldom gets left ON good
news items. The opium smuggling case
that terminated yesterday, is one of a
class that may become very familiar to
Dakotans, and very important to the
United States custom service. The ex-
tended frontier line in the northwest,
including the Dakota border, makes
smuggling easy. It is practically i'm
possible to watch all that line as it
should be. The smugglers can ship to
any station on the Canadian Pacific and
move overland with their goods to any
favorite station on the Manitoba. A null
tiplication of such cases as the Currin-
opium case will prove powerful argu-
ment for commercial union.

LEGISLATIVE RECESS.

| The scheme of takinga recess for sixt,
or ninety days, soon after the convenlne
of the legislature next month, is likely tt
provoke considerable discussion. The
power of the legislature to take such {
recess is just now being considered. By
United States statute the sessions of the
legislative assemblies of the several terri
tories are limited to sixty days duration
Section 1916 provides that "each legisla.
tive assembly shall fix by law the day OF
commencement of its regular SESSIONS
! In the earlier years of the territory's or.
ganization the sessions OF the legislature
began in December. Finally, by legisla.
tive act, the date of the beginning of the
session was changed to the second Tues
day in January. There can be no ques-
ton regarding the right of each legisla-
tive assembly to fix the day of its
meeting. Congress simply restricts the
time to sixty days. 1t is possible for the
coming legislative to meet on the 9Th of
next month, organize, and fix the day of
its meeting for March, April or some
other month, then meet and hold its
sixty days session. Will it do it? The
only object of such move is to defeat
democratic appointments to territorial
positions, which is sure to follow unless
such an adjournment of the legislature is
taken. 1t would be impossible for the
commission of new governor to reach
the capital after the 4th of March--Har-
rlson's inaugural-and the Sth of March
the end of the legislative session. It
would be unreasonable to expect such
haste on the part of the president in ap-
pointing governor even if it were pos
sible for the commission to reach Bis
marck in the time stated.
The Sioux Falls Press, however, cites
democratic precedent which may over
come the necessity of a legislative recess.
It says;
The object OF this is to carry the session
over into President uarrisOn's administra-
tlOn with the idea that the new president
will! send republican governor to Dakota
IN time to ratify all the acts passed by the
republican legislature. 1t is difficult to see
any necessary for any scheme OF this kind.
1t is not likely that Gov. Church will op-
pose any, really necessary legislature. If
ne should make free use of his veto
power the legislature, which is overwhelm-
ingly republican in both branches. could
easily pass any bill over the veto of the
governor. II the scheme should merely
contemplate holding Off the appointment
of the various officers, even then the plan is
not necessary, for Gov. Church has tested
in the courts the right OF the governor to
remove officials, and Chief Justice Tripp
has decided that the governor may remove
any officer whom he has the right to ap-
point. 1t the new governor is not pleased
with the men whom he finds in office, all
he needs to do is to issue commissions to
others. Clearly there is no need for the
contemplated adjournment. Let the legis-
lature meet and have it out before spring.

BlsMAKCk WEEKLY TRIBUNE FRIDAY, DEC, % fsgg

Senator Dawes, has presented to con-
gress memorial reasoning that "Pem.
bina' ought to be the name of the new
state and not "North Dakota" It is also
suggested that Washington be called
Tacoma" This august society dislikes
''prefxes," like South" and '.North"-
thinks it sounds sectional and unpatri-
otto. How about "New" Jersey and
"New" Hampshire and New York? A
kick from "New" England regarding the
nomenclature of the two Dakotas is
clearly out of order

OUAY,S BURCHARD.

Senator Quay has been regarded as a
Napoleon in political management.
Silence has been his grand characteristic.
He has kept his eyes open, his mouth
shut and his hand moving. He has been
hailed everywhere a master among
masters. Before the election not a line
from Quay. Since the election not line
until he entered into correspondence with
Fargo man. It remained for a Da-
kotan to 'do him up" Brice was child
in his grasp. Among all the masters in
political cunning, centering in New York
city, there was not one who could trap
the great Pennsylvania. Republicans
everywhere said Quay will see us
through. He did, but how only the
genius of a Quay can outline It was
done. DR.. Shurlock of Fargo served
with Quay in the Pennsylvania legisla-
ture and is fast friend. He was also
Quay's family physician. It was not
much for the doctor to expect-the Fargo
postofice but it was awful for him to
give away this toothsome note:
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Dec. 18.-My Old
Friend: leave here tonight for WASH
ingtOn, and am in rush. You can. how
ever, pin your everlasting faith on the
appointment for Fargo, as it is already
settled. Foraker is sure for the cabinet.
QUAY.
The postofice is small item and may
make some of the other fellows in FARGO
hot, but the reference to Foraker's place
in the cabinet is line of national inter-
est. It is an eyeopener to the whole
country, especially to the rest of the big
four in Ohio, to the big four in New
York and to Mr.. Carle of the Pioneer
Press, who thinks the Governor was a
traitor to Sherman at Chicago. It ac-
cepts one member of the TRIBUNE cabi-
net and we suspect that the the others
will be duly confirmed when the Presl-
dent-elect gets over his Christmas. For
aker's appointment makes Blaine's GER
tain. The men who did the work in the
campaign are to be recognized. Blaine
and Foraker we're the two great cards on
the stump. Qua3 remembers their
worth. He remembers his old physician
Shurlock. Shurlock forgets Quay or
else some wicked correspondent filches
from the good doctor message that
made Quay's hair stand on end when he
read it in print. Said Quay; Good Lord!
Good doctor! Where's my mascot?
Bismarck weekly tribune., 1888-12-28
THE ISSUE.

HE Dakota question is something
more than local, territorial or even
party question. It is national issue
We admit that Dakota has much at stake
and is party in interest. We agree
that the republican party has large in
terest in our admission as two states,
thereby redeeming it's solemn pledges
and at the same time enlarging it's repre-.
sentation in the national Congress.
Above either is the nations welfare. The
Springer Omnibus" bill, with division
injected into it by the democratic caucus
is forcing this larger view upon the
country. The price of admission and di.
vision is compromise and compromise
that is neither democratic nor republican
in the true sense of either word. It may
be the best that the democrats can do al
this time, and if the issue is an immed-
late admission for the Dakotas, the best
the republicans can exact. It is sur.
render upon the part of the democrats as
democrats, and if accepted by the re.
publicans, is surrender of principle and
concession where none is Justly re-
quired. An Omnibus bill has no place
in the honest craftsmanship of this era
and no true republican can encourage it
without blushing. Such bill is unnec-
essary if the territories are to be admitted
upon their merits, and if they cannot be
taken in upon their merits they have no
business in the union. Admit South
Dakota, admit North Dakota, admit
Montana, admit Washington, making
the thirty-ninth, the fortieth, the forty
first and the forty-second states.
That's the order and the political
necessities of party that would change
that order, should have no encourage
ment from the republicans who sub.
scribe to the great sentiment, "we are a
nation" We would be better repubi-
cans if we declined admission if it came
at the sacrifice of the nations welfare.
If New Mexico is not fit for statehood
We should not ask the republican party
to endow her with that imperial condi-
t1on for our sake. OF Montana's fitness
there is no doubt. Her mining and stock
interests are famous on either continent.
Her capital is city of $1,000 people, and
she has the greatest gold mines in the
world, the greatest silver mine and the
greatest copper mine. Washington terri
tory has population of 275,OOO and is as
rich in minerals and valleys as Pennsyl-
vania. She has magnificent seaports in
the cities Of Seattle and Tacoma. Who
will vouch for New Mexico?
Shall I've accept statehood with New
Mexico? Is the Springer issue republi-
can or fair? Shall we ask the republican
party to give us statehood upon
Springer's terms? Better wait.

Notwithstanding the recent order of re-
moval to Rapid City. A similar order

made before March, four months, and in
four months what might happen?-
