Hon. J. j. kLEINER was member OF
congress from Indiana in the congress
before the present one. He was lire
long Democrat, and d Democrat from
Indiana comes pretty near the typical
party nan. lie is the last man to
swerve from party allegiance. Mr..
-kIEINEE visited Dakota, became inter
ested in property there. ana at the eX-
piration Of Ills terms became resident
of the territory. There was nothing
unusual in this. The territory IS full
Of men who have held conspicuous
public positions in the states. An aver
age congress and full administration
could be garnerad from its population
without cXhausting the material.
But the point about Mr.. KLEINER
is that, as incorngible Demo
crat as he is, he voted for the
Republican candidate for delegate to
congress at the recent election, not
from personal or party reasons, but be-
cause he believed his success would ac-
celebrate statehood. That was the case
with a good many Democrats, and was
one of the difficulties that embarrassed
the canvass OH the side of the Demo
Gratis. They had decided advantage
IA the candidate. and the general issue
VaS admirably adapted to Dakota, but
on the admission matter there was, i'll
appearance at least, weakness that
could not be overcome. The party was
nominally for admission as one state
that was the national phase of the ques
tiOn-but q very important fraction of
the party favored oiyislon-and the
question was complicated and indis-
-tinct, Gen. HARRISON had visited
Dakota and given it good
deal OF advertising in the senate.
Mr.. CLEVELAND unfortunately did
not get over its lines on his Western
Tour. and didn't talk about it as the
good people of the territory like to have
presidents do. The Republicans could
point to affirmative action III the only
branch of the government they COLI
trolled, in the direction of the admission
of Dakota. In the house the Democrats
had muSscd it up with lot of other
territories. and left them all slumbering
in a torpid committee. Even Mr..
SPRINGER, the chairman Of the COM
.mittee, is credited with the discovery
recently that the course taken was a
thunder. incidentally, it is hoped that
he will so realize that fact and impress
his colleagues in the house to such effect
HAT all the state enabling acts wanted
will be put through the house this
winter. The Democratic managers did
hot realize the intensity OF the feeling
on this state question. At Washington
ucre was. no doubt, some reluctance to
move i'll the direction of increasing the
Republican vote in the senate in the
Face of the strong hope of gaining con-
troll of that body. 1t was immaterial
that Republican zeal was stimulated
by the partisan consideration stated;
whatever promoted the statehood pros
poet was more effective than party dog

KLEINERS were disposed to vote against

MANpAN, Oak, Nov. 80. There is
nothing going on here of so much i'll
terest as the attack of scarlet fever that
has caused the closing of the schools.
There are about twenty-five cases in
town, and there have been some deaths.
The disease was imported from the
East, and is worse than any previous
attack.
The promoters of the Mandan &
Black Hills railroad. of which some
little is being heard in the GLOBE from
its energetic Rapid City correspondent,
live in Mandan, and they are
hard at work upon the dar-
ling of their hopes. EX-MayOr
Rice has had Black Hills railroad on
the brain for number of years, and i'll
season and out of season he has done
all he could to get the matter in shape
so that some action could be had. In
1854 an initiatOry movement was made.
and some little literature was printed
in regard to the country and the route,
but no further progress was made, with
the exception of getting the matter be-
fore folks who, ever since, have been
DESTROYS of seeing the project success.
Mandan is the place for the eastern
terminus of a road to the Hills that
would strike Duluth for cheap freights,
and that would have another way than
already exists for getting to st. Paul
and Minneapolis.
The Mandan creamery had to shut
down for the winter good deal earlier
than it's promoters thought wOnld be
necessary. Just at the time of year
when butter commands price at which
the institution could run and make
money, it was found that the COWS in
the tributary country were

work if even they don't cover the bot
toms of their cans with the cream they
bring in. 1t was possible TO have cream
cost the creamery more for bringing it
to the factory than could be obtained
for the butter after it was made. 1t was
to avoid heavy loss that the creamery
was shut down as early as it was till
next spring. There are a good many
farmers in this locality who will get eX-
ira cows next year for the purpose of
supplying the creamery with cream.
There is money in it for the farmer if
he gets good stock and looks after 1t.
The West Missouri country won't

Special to the Globe.
GRAND Forks, Nov. 30.-Rather
startling is the answer served by George
III. Walsh on George Il. Winship to the
notice of contest for territorial council.
Walsh alleges fraud on the part of Win
ship and his supporters. What makes
the answer startling is the fact that
Ninship's supporters were all temper
ance men and working for the passage
of local option. OF course many true
Republicans who voted against prohloi-
ton voted for Winship in preference
to the boiling Republican, Walsh. But
those who did the active work were
prohibitionists, and unless Walsh can
induce men to falSify he wilt
never he able to sustain his charges.
Temperance people have the reputa-
ton of being in favor of honest elections
and it is certain they did not go
BACK ON THEIR RECORD
in Grand Forks county. There are
MANY Democrats here who are prolibi-
tionists and they supported Winshir
and local option to man. On the other
hand the liquor element made Il deter

Snecial 10 the GLOBE.

Special to the GLOBE.
CHAMBERLAIN, Nov. 30.-Our people
are confident that something will be
done in regard to the opening of the
reservation at the coming session of
congress, and that portion of this inn
mense tract of land will be thrown open
to settlement regardless of the Indians
wishes. The visit of the chiefs to
Washington demonstrated the fact that
the Indian does not know what is for
his own good. The report of the Sioux
commission is in perfect harmony with
the views expressed by the commission
while here, and proves that the COM
mission were wholly and heartily in
sympathy with the work of opening the
reservation to settlement. One feature
that expressed itself forci bly, upon the
minds of the commission was the fact
that those who favored ratifying
the Sioux bill were the Indians
who had adopted to considerable eX-
tent the
CUSTOMS OF THE WHITES
and had learned of the financial benefits
to be derived from cultivation OF the
soil and accumulation of stock. These
Indians realize that it will be to their
benefit to dispose of portion of the
reservation that is now utterly useless
to them in order that they may be able
to secure many things that are neces-
sary and that are not now provided
them. The commission in their report
favors the prompt passage of bill SIM
liar to the Dawes bill, emitting the
RATIFICATION CLAUSE,
allowing the Indians more for the land,
aud several minor changes. Another
change that should be made rs in that
section requiring settlers to pay GER
tain price per acre for the land. 1t
seems unjust that hcmesteaders, people
who, as q general thing, possess but
limited means, should be compelled to
pay for their land in this case any more
so than in any other. The land will be
subject only TO
HOMESTEAD FILINGS,
which is perfectly proper, but it seems
as though the general homestead law
should apply in this place. The home
steader is the true developer of new
country. He is the only actual and bona
1idc resident. When man files upon
land under the homestead law he means
to build for himself and family per-
manent home, and he should be en-
couraged in the work.
