The Fargo Argus gives currency to @
proposition which has for some time lain
dormant in the minds of the thinking
men of Dakota-a proposition in behalf
OF the election by the people OF the va
rious officials now appointed by the gov
ernor OF the territory. BY permission OF
the legislature an alien executive--an
executive sent in from the political
slums OF the states-is given authority
to name the various territorial officials,
subject TO confirmation by the legislative
council. That the council seldom fails
to confirm the choice OF the executive
is painful historical fact. The council
usually gets itself into such position
that 1t is not q free political or moral
agent in the transaction and thinks it is
compelled to bow to the will OF the ex.
ecutive. The proposition now made
is to elect Legislature which will take
from the governor the power of appoint
ment end place that power in the hands
OF the peopie-a legislature which will
pass laws providing for the election of
the various officials nov appointed under
mistaken idea that the organic act
specifies that they shall be appointed.
This was the old time method, under
the same organic act, and it worked
we'll. SO far as our territorial
form OF government will
permit the people of Da-
kota should move in behalf of self gov
ernment and there IS no question that
they can add largely to their prerogatives
through the medium of well disposed
Legislature. It will be advantageous,
therefore. TO elect Legislature with the
understanding that 1t is expected to clip
the wings of our imported executive. It
can, il it will, leave HIM with little more
than nominal power. II can make OF
him governmental figure head and moth
ing more. The people owe it to them
ieelves to accomplish this much In their
own behalf. They have had quite enough
of disgraceiul trading and incompetent
appointees. North and south Dakota
can unite upon this proposition and
carry their purposes at the November
election.
The plan by which the officials now
appointed could be rendered elective
without any question under the organic
act, or any possible legal clash, is to
divide the territory into two districts
and, by legislative enactment. mako the
territorial officers district officers. The
territory is 80 large that two sets of Off
clals are necessary and In fact some OF
the positions are now duplicated by ter

The Omaha Bee gives the true in
wardness of che local contest against the
bonds proposed TO be issued in aid of
the Omaha & Yankton railroad. 1t says:
Last Saturdays meeting of the coun-
ty commissioners was attended chiefly
by The paving, grading, sewer and
sweeping contractors, who appeared to
be very anxious that the proposition for
the Yankton road should be modified in
some way. The true inwardness of that
call on the commissioners was however,
o desire on the part,of these contractors
TO have the special county election post
poned until after the day OF the sewer
bond election. Ii this railroad project
cannot be carried out without combining
with contractors and boodlers, 1t had
better be abandoned altogether. It is
high time that Omaha should break up
the corrupt contractors ring which man.

detriment of this city, has exerted such
baneful influence upon the city eoun-
Gil and is trying its level best to control
the county board. At yesterdays % meet
ing tthe commissions ers the some gang

tion to the report against calling the

In Omaha there appears to be O COM

lie. If it succeads in preventing Omaha
from securing the trade Of this section
it will give to aliits future fatal stroke.
This is Omnha's opportunity. In twelve

out OF reach.

BY q party vote the democratic mem.
bers of the house committee on terri
tories have decided in favor OF the
Springer omnibus bill. This is bill to
authorize the territories of Dakota, Mon.
sans, Washington and New Mexico 20
hold constitutional conventions and
adopt state constitutions. Congress re-
serves to Itself the right to accept these
constitutions and adopt enabling acts at
later period. 1t may accept the Da.
kota constitution and reject all
the rest. 1t may reject the Dako-
ta constitution and accept all the rest.
1t may accept all the constitutions or il
may reject them all. So the omnibus
bill is in no sense bill to permit the
territories named to enter the union as
states. Future favorable action depends
upon the future moods of congress. For
instance the democratic house may Gnd
itself at the critical moment in mood
to sccept the constitutions OF the demo-
cratic territories and reject the constisu-
tion OF the republican territory. Stranger
things than this haye happened; The
whole scheme is trading proposition
beneath the dignity of a congress of the
United States end on q par only with
the dignity OF Springer. It is about his
calibre. Within the territories which
Mr.. Springer uses for his trafiicking
purposes there may be found sentiments
adverse to the whole scheme. New
Mexico does not want admission to the
union. 1t is unprepared for the respon-
sibilitiea of statehood. Dakota wants
admission as two states and will combat
to the last ballot Of its intelligent peo.
pie any other proposition. 80 tha omni.
bus bill fills the Wishes oz ONLY the terri.
