The following gem is from tho New
York 1yibunc; "washington Territory
stands clearly next TO the Dakotss In the
line OF promotion to statehood. Its claim
Is supported not only by the size and
character Of lie population, but by the
rapidity of its development" "The
Dakotss" Is good. The common impression
Is that the country has only one Dakota to
brag OF, though 1t may have two when the
Republican Congress gets through making
states. 1t isa little previous In the Tribune
TO use the plural In anticipation even II the
admission Of the territory ~ two states
seems quite certain 10 II Perhaps It even
dreams OF three or more "Dakotas" but
they are ~ yet but one, with an estimated
population Of less than 100000, or little
more than the city Of Chicago. The sug-
gestion shat rapidisy Of development IL q
reason for admission TO statehood In also
novel and eccentric, and might be foroibly
applied to the oity just named. Chicago
can't brag much on the 'charaoter Of its
population" but the sizs OF II and ita
rapidity Of development are certainly i'm.
prossive Washington Territory In quite
an old country. Our grandisthers quarrelled
with Britain about It and Il has only begun
TO jump ahead sinoe the completion of the
| Northern Pacific railway. 1t deserves Il
be state and Is desperately anxious to bs
one, but II Is folly 10 talk OF rapidity O.
development a. claim when the rush wa
produced directly by the building Of rail-
road for which the government and the
people have pad heavily In vast slloes OF tht

We applaud him for 1t. 1t is an excel.

the idea that Harrison will strive to be

Against the Majority,

The popular majority was cast for
Cleveland, who probably has 10000 more
votes in the eighteen states of which he
carried the electral vote, than Harrison
has In the twenty states which he car
ried. We believe that this has not oc-
Cured before since Tilden lost the pres
idency, though he had large majority
Of the popular vote. He, however was
confessedly cheated out of the place
and it is as clear that Cleveland has been
cheated.
There is no disposition anywhere to
deny that Indiana and New York were
carried by the abundant use of money
In buying votes in every possible way.
The only counter allegation is that the
Democrats tried to do the same thing;
and failed only because they had less
money. Ii this be the case, the fact
still remains that the election was bought.
1t points out that hereafter money is TO
be relied on to decide elections. And it
arouses the conviction that II this
