The Admission of Dakota.

The Republicans in the U. 8. Senate aim to
force the admission of Dakota, and to estab-
lish the territory of Lincoln, out of Dakota
Territory. This means division of the ter
ritory to sustain which the vote taken was as
35 for to 80 against, The inhabitants are
nearly equally divided as to the division of
the Territory. The Democrats do not favor
division of the Territory, the Republicans do;
and argue for admission as if the case was
similar to the admission of Michigan and
other States, without an enacting act. Mich
igan was admitted as the Territory establish
ed by congress.
In Dakota the southern part of the State is
more thickly settled than the northern, and
hence by small majority out-votes it. The
question should only be decided upon the
best interests of the whole territory and lis
capacity to make one or more states for the
best interests of the whole people of the Ter
ritory, and of the United States.
But so far as the debate discloses that is
not the leading consideration with the Re-
publican Senators in advocating South Da-
kota's admission. 1t is party, not State and
National prosperity, that moves them.

THE NORTHWEST
Go For Them.

On the Both of March the Ohio Legislature
passed the following law regarding the pesky
English sparrow:
SECTION 1. Be IL enacted by the General
Assembly of the State of Ohio, That every per-
son, being an inhabitant of this State, shall
be entitled to receive bounty of ten cents
per dozen for all sparrows, known as the
English sparrow, killed; to be allowed and
paid in the manner hereinafter provided.
SEQ. 2. Every person applying for such
bounty, shall take such sparrow or the head
thereof in lots of not less than 25 to the clerk
of the township, village or city, within which
such sparrow shall have been killed, who
shall thereupon decide upon such application,
and if satisfied of the correctness of such
claim, shall issue certificate stating the
amount of bounty such applicant is entitled
to, and deliver the same to such applicant,
and shall destroy the heads of such sparrows.
SEQ. 3. Such certificate may be presented
by the claimant or his agent to the city
treasurer, or treasurer of the township in
which such sparrows may have been killed,
who shall pay the same out of the township
fund of said township.
SEC. 4. This act shall take effect and be in
force from and after its passage.

THE COREAN LEGATION.
Some of the Peculiar Customs of a
Strange PeOnIe.


WASHINGTON, April %. - Passing
along O-st. one sees a modern brick
house, peaked and painted after the
style of Washington architecture, on
which floats queer white flag, with
something like mud turtle in the
middle. This is the Corean Legation.
Squatting on the front steps are odd
looking bundles attached to long pipes.
These are the Coreans themselves. In
the reception rooms of the houses
there is no furniture whatever except a
few chairs. The windows have the
quaintest kind of blinds, brought from
Corea. Up stairs there is said to be
some furniture, but the Coreans COM
plain dreadfully of the barbarism of
in beds.
"Oh, if only had good mat to roll
myself up in and Sleep" said one,
through the interpreter, in accents of
despair. They refuse to compromise
with the Western nations on the ques-
ton of undressing at night, but wear
their day clothes to bed. They can all
speak little English now. They are
anxious to learn bicycle riding and
practice daily. A good deal of their
money goes for carriage hire. The
of the other legations treat
them with formal and exact courtesy.

THE OHIO PLATFORM.
A New York Paper Observes That 1t
Voices Only John Sherman.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 2O.-The
New York Times of to-day has the fol-
lowing editorial: "The platform on
which the Ohio Republicans placed
their candidates quite suits Mr.. John
Sherman's views of what the people
want. 1t does not at all suit the peo-
ple's own views on the same subject
1t was full of denunciation of the Demo-
cratic party and of devotion to the
principle of pure and free ballot, but
it had nothing to say of the offense of
prostituting the public service to per-
sonal ends, or of using the Treasury
funds for the payment of the Secre-
tary's canvassing agents. On the tariff
question it was as reactionary as Mr..
Sherman himself, and blindly ignored
any demand whatever for reduction
Of the war taxes. We do not believe
this sort of thing will help Sherman in
getting the nomination; we are sure it
would be fatal to his election"

Governor Dennison, with his staff,
without practical knowledge Of war
without arms for a regiment, or rations
for company, or uniforms for cor
pOral's guard at the outset, and without
the means or the needful preparations
for purchase or manufacture, had, in
less than a month, raised, organized,
and sent to the field or to the camps of
the government an army larger than
that of the whole United States three
months before. Within this State the
wonderful achievement was saluted
with complaints about extravaganza i'm
rations, defects in uniforms, about
