An order has been promulgated from

the Dakota militia restoring Col. Webb
of Pcinbina, to the position OH the gov
errors staff from which he VAS 80 sum-
marilv dismissed at the Huron encainp.
ment last fall. The Fargo Argus, refer
ring to the subject, takes the position
that the order of restoration is more in
the nature Of REMOVING Il stigma of dis
grace from the governor than from Col.
Webb, and there are others no doubt
who will fall in with the view Of the Arg
us Ill the matter. 1t is not probable,
however, That Col. Webb will condone
the insult Of his summary dismissal by
accepting reinstatement. We have it
from what seems to be an authentic
source that the people of Pembina and
the legislative district in which Col.
Webb liyes intend to give him sub
stantial vindication and certificate of
their confidence and esteem by electlng
him to the legislature next fall. Ifthere
is one thing more than another that

magnetism, his brains, his fame. but
rs no great statesman ever lived with.
out enemies, we will miss his enemies,

From Sioux Falls

In tie Sioux Falls liquor injunction
ease, which is To be argued at Bismark
tins week, the argument hinges upon
two points; first. the constitutionality Of
the local option law; and second, the ef-
feet of another statute (clmpter ~ pass
ell by the last legislature in regard to the
authority of city councils in counties re-
fl$ing liquor licenses.
First: The comstitutonaity will de.
pend Oh whe tier prohibition by local
option amounts to an unauthorized dele
CATION of legislative power. Upon this
question four states hold in the atiirma-
tive,-TeXas, Delaware, California, and
Iowa; while seventeen states hold in the
negative i'll their latest decisions, among
them being Vermont, New Hampshire.
Mas sacnisetls, New Jersey, Pennsylva-
MIA, Maryland, Ohio, New York, Indiana,
Kentucky, North Carolina, Arkansas,
Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The two chief doctrine on Which this
majority Of decisions rest are, first, that
the submission of questions to the peo-
Pile is not necessarily an infringement of
legislative power; and second, that the
restraint of the liquor traffic is matter
of police regulation.
| The first mentioned doctrine may be
said to haye been crystalized in IL Penn
sylvania decision to the effect that all
power is from the people; that of this
power the legislature is merely the trus-
tee, and the people the principal; ami
that it would be strange if the trustee
could not properly submit to its princi-
pul the determination of question of
such grave Importance. The second
mentioned doctrine in support oftlle con-
stitutonaity Of local option laws is stated
by Judge Cooley, to the effect that they
may rest upon an inpregnab!e ground of
police regulation, in which it is entirely
proper to invoke the local judgment or
opinion. Sioux Falls Press.

They have been boring and sound
ing the Red river below Winnipeg.
with II view to make it navisable. \
dam and lock, or dredging four or five
feet for ten miles, would give from
six to eight feet at the lowest stage of
water. One of the queer things shown
by the survey is that from the fifth to
the twelfth mile below Winnipeg the
bed of the stream isEp hill; it being
twelve feet higher at the twelfth mile
than at the fifth; it gradually falls
from the twelfth to the nineteenth,
mile and at the latter point is about
the same level as at the fifth. AT the
twentieth mile the rivrri is at the same
level is Lake Winnipeg.
