The $4,000 Bonus About Secured

Front.
FARGO, March 2.-An energetic eff
fort is being made among the business
men to raise the required $1,000 bonus
to secure the headquarters of the Catho-
lie see. 1t is not an easy task as the
Ostracized liquor interest used to be
among the most liberal contributors to
public enterprises, but the prospect is
encouraging.
The ladies of the w. C. T. U. are
probability that they will be allowed to
vote in framing state. After the local
option success the society was nearly
wrecked by too much voting. A set of
officers would be elected and some of
the disappointed would kick, meta
phOrically of course, when another
election would be had without any re-
gard to the former one. In this way
three sets of officials were in full
authority at once. Miss Willard, the
president of the national society, was
appealed to, and has just given an
opinion that it twas absurd to hold
three elections" unless the ballot was
stuffed or illegal votes run in. They
will be at the polls with coffee and
dOughnuts when given chance to vote.
The enthusiasm that Judge Guptill
brough back from the Inauguration of
Gov. Foraker, whose guest he was, has
infected not only the Republican club,
but the Republicans of Fargo generally,
and since the Blaine pull out, they are
nearly solid for Foraker for president.
He is reported to be liberal i'll his habits
and not badly mixed up with prohibit
ton. The Ohio association recently
formed, some predict will bloom out
into a Foraker club.

friend and fellow tOwnsman, Gov.
Swineford, of Alaska. Of all the Demo-
Gratis in this administration, and [ have
met them all, the postmaster general
comes nearest my ideal of a thorough
gentleman, a civil service reformer, and
at the same time thorough friend of
his own party. His home is a model of
cheerfulness, entertainment and happi-
ness. His manners are those of born
gentleman, his friendship something
any one might be proud of. His Office
is clear-cut, complete Democratic
HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH,
and therefore the perfection of business
methods and economic order. | am
especially we'll pleased with him, and
can say that much without disparage-
ment to the other gentlemen who so
ably manage their departments
''Have you taken any interest in the
opening of the Sioux reservatiOn?'
Most assuredly have; and warm
interest, too. That is one of the meas
ures which are of great interest to all
Dakota. Nothing could be more just,
more desirable, more deserving of the
favorable consideration of congress than
the Iong-deferred relief which is asked
for In that matter. There is great
and fertile region which was selected by
the Indians because it was the garden
spot of Dakota; a stretch Of country
larger than Kentucky, kept out of the
reach of civilization, out of the path Of
the highway of progress and enlight-
eminent. 1t is high time that the
catering wedge be driven, and
the Indians compelled to stand
aside. They need not be ill-treated.
They need not be ignored as to their
rights. But, they can be taken care of
just as well, and in fact better, by the
allotment,of lands to them in severalty.
They can be paid annuities and other
wise cared for. The bill which has
received the unanimous Endorsement of
the house committee on Indian affairs,
is satisfactory to all who have inter
ested themselves in the matter, and L
believe that it will pass the house
within week or ten days. 1t may be
slightly modified i'll the senate; but it is
substantially the bill which will pass. l
think the people may confidently ex-
pect that the reservation will be
opened by the present congress.'

A DEMOCRATIC COUNTY,
Speculation i'm POlitics--A POpu-

New Railroads.
Special TO the Globe.

Special TO the Globe.
HOWARD, March Although it is
several months before voting time, con-
siderable interest is manifest, and wires
are being pulled as vigorously as though
the time was near at hand. Miner
county elected full corps of Demo-
cratic officers at the last election, and
will perform the same act ne 1t fall.
The affairs of the county have been so
ably and economically managed, that
the taX-paying masses will rejoice at an
opportunity to reinState every one OF
the faithful officers. The Republicans,
who have had full sway here
since the organization of the
county, run the affairs so loosely
and were so eXtravagant that ii became
niece ssary for the people to take a bold
stand, and the result is that to-day we
have solid Democratic county. There
will be music in the legislative fight in
this district this fall. John III. Patten,
the most egotiscal bag of wind that drew
salary at Bismarck during the last ses-
sion, and who gained some nOtoricty by
introducing the bill submitting the
question of division, after it had been
prepared by Huron lawyer, is openly
in the field for reelection. 1t is useless
to say that Mr.. Patten will never again
represent this county, and he ought to
have sense enough to see it, The popu-
lar ID. ID. Baldwin, whom Gov. Church
appointed as one of the regents OF the
Madison Normal school, is before the
people as
A PEOPLES CANDIDATE,
and John Ii. Patten, or, in fact, 10 Re-
publican in the district, will care to
oppose him. Mr.. Baldwin is one of the
most highly esteemed young men in this
section, and his friends are determined
to make use of his excellent qualiiica-
lions and exceeding popularity.
Miner county is prohibition in all that
the term implies. There is not saloon
or blind pig within its borders. 1t has
always been strongly Ill that direction
and since the overwhelming vote last
fall no one has yentured to violate the
law. The county commissioners, backed
by an army of such men as Hon. Thomas
Mcconnell. Will see that the will of the
people prevails.
&. Lester, hOrny-handed granger
three miles from here, can produce more
arguments against division of the terri
tory in five minutes than any man we
have ever met. He is highly educated,
and has given this question much study.
He will gladly meet any of the rampant
divisiOnists in debate OH this question.
Railroad Commissioner B0yntOn re-
Gently told us that the Illinois Central
would most surely extend their line
from Sioux Falls to Bismarck this year,
and, as Howard is on the line already
surveyed, we, of course, feel very happy
of it here. A good north and south road
will make Howard one of the best cities
in Central Dakota.
We would like to see 1000 GLOBES
come to the homes of our people every
week from now until after next falls

lished in the great Northwest.

them to take into consideration the ac-
ton of the general convention, and if
they approve it, under their views of
duty and their responsibility to God, 10
will then be for them to make this
movement invincible by appealing to
THE SENSE OF RIGHT
and wrong of the people, and thus
browning our efforts with the sanction
and dignity of high moral purposes and
of duty. The legal profession and the
public are suffering under injurious eX-
penses and delays in litigation, which
amount to denial of justice. Also to
them do the people look, as leaders in
all such times as these, as defenders OF
their rights or liberties, when denied
or imperiled. Their advice and coun-
sci. as profession, at this juncture,
will be of great benefit to the people.
All these great orders of society should
be consulted in this emergency. 1t
is their business. They will suffer IL
nothing is done. They must decide
what is to be done. If their combined
wisdom shall unite upon plan of act
ion, that plan will carry the people, for
they are the people, and if the people
shall unite upon any plan, they will DO
triumphant. The people of North Da- =,
kOta, when their vote is fairly taken,
and the subject is fairly presented to
them, are equally as favorable to divis-
ion as the people of South Dakota.
There are indications showing that they
have walked up to the fact the Aberdeen
movement was merely a local enter-'
prise, such as is incident to all capital
schemes, and is as inimical to the Inter-
eStS of North Dakota as of South Da- \
kOta. The committee respectfully sug-s
geSt to the friends of division
IN NORTH DAKOTA,
a friendly cooperation upon their part !
in this contemplated movement,by Suclih
measures as may be most suitable and
convenient to them. This COMMITTEES
makes an especially earnest appeal to
the weekly newspaper press of Dakota
for their cooperation and assistance in
this crisis in Dakota's affairs. The
weekly press are nearest to the people,
represent them most directly and reach
them most closely and generally. They
are powerful instrumentality in franz
ing and guiding public opinion. With
out their aid the daily press is partly
powerless. In this emergency we
shall all be called upon to give of
our time, means and labor for
the common welfare. The committee
SKIS the editors of the weekly press to
do their share in this work as public
teachers, by editorials and by the pub
LEGATION of all important documents on
this subject. The committee makes this
announcement now, in order to call the
attention of the people to this subject
beforehand, that it may be fully dis
cusSed and conclusions arrived at when
the time comes for action. The com
mittee respectfully commend these SUBJ
jectS to the careful, thoughtful and pa-
triOtic consideration of all the good citi-
zens of North Dakota and South Da-
kota. BY order of committee.

HOW IT'S ENFORCED.

1t was not anticipated that when the
triumph of local option had been
clinched by the supreme court, indiffer-
ence and inaction would at once take
possession of the lately Jealous cham
pions of the statute. But an address
just issued by the president of the North
Dakota Anti-Saloon league makes this
confession. Although every saloon in
the arid counties is said to be closed,
this high authority asserts that "our
work is not making the progress we de-
sire" In the gloom OF his own observa-
ton and experience he breaks out with
this language:
Time is passing. The enemy is not being
assaulted, not even a skirmish is going ON,
and every days delay adds to his boldness
and the strength of his position. The mas
terly inactivity of our friends is marvellous.
Apathy, il not real Indifference, prevails TO
an extent hard to believe possible. Unless
we can arouse them to action it were better
that Against the Sale had not carried.
In order to break up this lethargy he
calls a meeting of the friends of the
cause to raise means to put an organizer
and revivalist in the field, to travel from
county to county to infuse campaign
life and vigOr into the slothful support
ers of the DISCRIMINATING policy. Such
spasmodic efforts are likely to become
less frequent, and do not augur well for
the permanency and success of the pro-
hibition policy. These declarations of
the head of the enforcement system
confirm the view heretofore expressed
by the GLOBE that in the towns where
there is an adverse public sentiment the
law will fail to accomplish the ends
sought by its well-meaning advocates.
Even if the saloons are all kept closed
the popular appetite will have ample
qualification in methods quite as demon
alizing as the open regulated sale is al
legged to be.

THE PROHIBITION PARTY.

The blizzard interfered with the pre-
liminary gathering for the organization
of the Prohibition party in South Da
kota, but it is understood that arrange
ments are making for more general
gathering at an early day. There is
small encouragement in any of the party
organs for this movement. The Repub-
licans are afraid of it, and the Demo-
Gratis regard it as out of their range.
The GLOBE has felt inclined to lend the
effort helping hand, not by reason of
sympathy with that sort of politics, but
rather in a kindly disposition to always
help the weak. As political factor
prohibition is not yet fairly on its feet
in Dakota. 1t is an infantile fodder.
The legislative success it has secured is
accidental, and not to be relied upon
until the element devoted to that cause,
singly and alone, shall exhibit voting
strength to demand the attention of the
politicians. Other questions are coming
to the front, and in the shuttle of general
politics the regulation Of the popular
appetite will pass into comparative deS-
uetude, whatever statues may be in the
books. This is claimed to be moral
question. and like pump-the water
will only flow while there is energetic
and active force agitating the handle.
The experience in Maine is Illustrative
of this. The most rigid enactments
have been Oh the law books for thirty
years, and still water does not enjoy
monopoly of the bibulOuS field. NEAL
Dow, the original patentee of the
scheme, painfully reaches the con-
clusion that the Republican party
is the great obstacle i'll the
way of complete success. That party
gives them the laws, but will not ell

WOMEN TO VOTE.

. Probably few anticipated that the
question of woman suffrage would be
given such conspicuous place in the
formation of state as is indicated in
the amendment to the enabling act in
the house for admission as one state,
striking out the word male in the quail
ticat0n of voters. 1t may be presumed
that this will be allowed to remain as a
feature of the bill, which is the most
hopeful measure looking to statehood of
any before congress. If, then, women are
to be allowed to WELD the ballot in all the
preliminary voting of the state, the in
quiry becomes ali interesting one as to
the extent of their probable participa-
ton and the results to flow from it. For
some reason, there seems to be larger
portion of the women in the terri
tories anxious to vote than in-the states,
and much greater disposition among
lawmakers to give than this opportunity
there. Evidence of this is especially seen
in Washingtonand Wyoming territories.
1t will be remembered that a Dakota
legislature passed bill for this pur-
pose, which was killed by Gov. PIERCE.
Possibly some explanation of this conces-
sion may be found in the feeling with the
masculine element that voting doesn't
amount to very much in the territorial
dependencies, and that it may be given
as sort of advertisement to encourage
female immigration. But voting in the
erection of a state is about as good as
there is anywhere, except, perhaps, in
voting for president, and there is no
doubt that large portion of the smooth
checked enfranchised will improve the
chance. The good ladies of the
VIC. Il. U. generally want to help fill
the ballot boxes, and it may be pre-
sumed that they will become an active
force to stimulate their sisters to join
them in exercising the privilege. If
this amendment covers all the voting to
be done prior to the final act of admis-
sion-the election of delegates to the
constitutional convention and officials
for the state-it may make trouble for
the politicians. The new political ele-
ment may have policies to embody in
the fundamental law, and fancies in the
selection of officials. The subject
will open up more fully when the
measure safely has run the gauntlet of
congress and the White house.
