time committed itself to the policy OF
admission as one state .--SSoat Fats
argus Leader.
The Argus Leader is not only demo-
cratic newspaper, but is one OF the
mouthpieces of the territorial admins
tration. The territorial administration
was the democratic convention at James,
town. 1t dictated the congressional nom.
ination and constructed the platform.
1t had things slI its own way. The anti
administration democrats generally staid
out and permitted the office holders and
gold lace fellows to conduct the conven-
ton. Out OF this convention the demo-
cratic party is given an admission as q
whole platform. 1t is 30 stated in the
document itself. 1t is so interpreted
and explained by an administration
mouthpiece. The issue 10 therefore
one state or two states. This presentR-
tion of the case is the one upon which
the territorial campaign is TO be con-
ducted. The republican party OF
Dakota welcomes the issue,
1t has been waiting patiently
for the lines to be drawn. The situa-
| tion is nov defined. The democratic
! majority in the house of representatives
| and the democratic minority in the
senate hus declared against two states
| (and practically against one state) from
the domain of Dakota. The national
convention of the democratic party
tacitly endorsed the position of the dem.
oeratic party at Washington. The dem.
| ocratic administration OF Dakota through
a party convention has announced its
fealty to the edict that Dakota shall be
made into no more than one state. The
Republican majority in the senate ant
the republican minority in the house
declare for two states. The republican
iconvention OF the nation puts the tw,
state proposition into its platform. Re.
pubiicans OF Dakota are unanimousl.
for two states and have 80 declared
themselves and will again 30 declare o
Watertown. This is the fight, admitte
by the administration party of Dakot

at jamestown the democratic conyen-
tion put plank in its platform con-
graduating the people upon the able
manner IN which the democratic admin
istration had increased the treasury
receipts from railroad taxation sources.
This is how they did 1.-THE Fargo
Argus tells the story;
When Ward took hold rs auditor, the
Northern Pacific was paying over $50, 900
cash into the territorial treasury and
making no complaint. This democratic
smarty refused the Northern Pacific
check for gross earnings and insisted on
land tax. The railroad refused
to pay tho land sax-they
were proceeded against. The demo.
cratic supreme court said the railroad
was right. Then the Church admins.
tration begged the Northern Pacihc to
pay over the cash it originally rendered
The road said no-"we've been paying
too nuch-we've paid three per cent
on total gross earnings when we should
have only paid on Dakota mileage gross
earnings" and offered some $4,000
And there the matter stands. The ter.
rltorial treasury is reported bankrupt
and there is no way to get money. That's
the kind of business she whole Church
outfit has been engaged il for the past
eighteen months.

A geological survey.

Bowdle (Dak.,) Pioneer: A party
consisting of Prof. Wright Of Oberlin
college, Prof. Bartlett of Ysnkton COL
iege, Rev. Clinton Douglas of the Faulk-
ton Congregational church, Rev. o. L..
Riggs, Indian missionary, Interpreter
S. d. Bonsey of Faulkton, and Rsvs.
McOseady and Spencer of this city
left Tuesday morning for Fort Yates,
where the party will cross the Missouri
river and then under the leadership of
Prof. Wright will proceed to make a
geological survey OF the coal fields on
the great Sioux reservation, and report
the same in fair and impartial man
ner. The party will be gone about two
weeks and will travel TO the western
borders of the reservation, and will re-
turn by way of Fort Sully. No fact of
interest Will escape the party, and the
Pioneer hopes to be able to furnish its
readers trustworthy report OF the coal
which the Indians have recently brought
to Scranton people, some of which coal
| the editor Of this paper has sent east
| and which has be- pronounced by
competent authority superior quality
of camel coal, which is better and more
valuable than the anthracite coal oil
Pennsylvania. Such being the case, it
is crime against the people of Dakota
to longer withhold that coal from them
bound up within the confines of reser-
walton which is not needed or used by
the Indians whom the government feeds
and allows to roam about in idleEess
Dakotaians need that coal, and il il
hoped that the efforts of Professo,
Wright and party will open the eyes oi
the nation to the fact of it's existence
and to the need of legislation that will
give us that coal, and thus enable oul
people to escape the insatiate greed o.
the coal barons OF the east.

At last 1t has been made an issue.
Never before in the history Of Dakota
politics has the question been placed
before the people of the territory SO that
they could declare themselves upon il.
There have been attempts but they have
all been failures. Now, for the first time
have the two parties taken their stand
upGn the question. The republican
party In convention assembled at james

for Dakota to be their irreyocable policy

Professor Harden, Mr.. Church's nomi-
nee for congress, does not appear to be
popular where he is best known. A
Plenkinton special says:
The nomination of J.W. Harden by the
democrats Tor delegate to congress ls not
satisfactory to the party IN this CITY
he was the principal of our public
schools one year ago. Some of the
prominent democrats go 30 far as to ad
NIT that he will run one hundred votes
behind his ticket in Aurora county.
A prominent member OF the farmers
alliance at Aberdeen says:
II believe the alliance men will split
on their vote for delegate to congress,
There are many strong democrats who
will not support Harden. He is fairly
popular, but has never done much for
the alliance"
Huron is in Professor Har 1en's legis-
lative district and Information from that
political center is that the democrats are
thoroughly indignant over the action Of
the jamestown convention. They de.
nounce 1t as Church scheme and con-
template calling an Indignation meet
ing for Huron, if not for south Dakota
democrats to express their views on the
matter. This is the general talk on the
streets. MIR. Harden has been advised
of the feeling that exists and will per-
haps endeavor to explain his surrender
to the anti.diYisionists. Woonsocket is
another place where the democratic
candidate Is we'll known personally. A
special from Woonsocket says:
The democrats OF this section will moi
thrill with enthusiasm at the candidacy
of J. w Harden for delegate to congress
From Johc r. Wilson and M. Il. Day
, it is quite step down to j. w. Harden
Mr. Harden is a gentleman and vel
educated, but If he was not recognized
as strong allience man he would neye
have received the nomination.

On the Fourth and his enunciationB on
the matter of statehood have been the
means or the occasion OF connecting his
name with the congressional nomination,
and there are influential men here who
are already canYassing the propriety of
having the Yankton county delegation
present his name to the convention, be-
lieving that it will be an easy matter to
select delegation in this county that
will favor Mr., Gamble. Steps have
already been taken to have delegation
selected for the county that would sup
port Gen. Hugh j. Campbell for the
nomination, and he will be pressed by
many, and If MIR. CANDLES friends now
go to work for him spirited contest may
be expected. The people Of the county
are divided, as were the delegates
or the convention. and the members OF
the Huron legislature on this question
and it is claimed by some that it would
be Misrepresentation of the county to

as favoring the plan to set up two state

congress does not do certain things. II

dered TO and declined by Senator Cor
man, Representative Scott and General
Calvin s. Brice, the railway mupsger
and millionaire. All three of them de-
clined because Of the pressure of their
business and the inability to give the
necessary attention to the management
of the campaign. They agree to give as
much time ss possible to political work,
but cannot assume the responsibility OF
the direction OF the affairs of the canvass.
Ex-senator Wallace. OF Pennsylvania
or ex. Representative Frank Jones, OF
New Hampshire, will probably be
chosen for this important position, with
the understanding that Gormep, Scott
Brice and other members OF the executive
committee shall give him active co.
operation,
