WATERFOWL, Dak., March 9.-One of
the severest wind and snow storms of
the winter, except the 18th of January
blizzard, has ragged here all day, putting
an end to railroad travel and tempo
rarily closing up the business of the

compelled to succumb to the inevitable.

The Sioux City Journal says, that
whether Dakota comes in as one state

attitude on the liquor question. This

much of an attitude in the matter.

Whapeton Times.
The past half dozen winters in Da-
kota were just superb! In fact it began
to look like Dakota was about to down
the whole earth as to climate and thrift
among her people. But now behold,
the present has been the most disgust

seven centuries. There is one consOl-

THOMAS X. CARTER,

one Of the brightest young men
that the great territory Of Mon
tana has within her borders. Our
people have seen and heard him and

for the high position he is contesting

above his opponent, w. A. Clark,
whose only claim for office, as advanced
by his friends is that be came to Mon
tana lD the early days. This argument
may carry some weight in the older
portions Of the territory, but In Custer
county that is peopled largely by the
young and progressive out pourings OF
the states, IL has no significance what
ever. Aside from the exhibitions OF
their respective merits ss given at the
public meetings here, the conduct oi

The New York Commercial Advertiser, a careful and conservative paper in dealing with questions of the kind, says of the O. B. & o. R. R. strike: ''Of the merits of the controversy it is difficult at such 8 distance and with the imperfect informa- tion now in possession, to judge with en- tire confidence but so far as judgment is possible, the appearances are favorable to the strikers at the outset. In the first place, as we pointed out on Saturday, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers is entitled to the benefit of it's record. It has steadily set it's face against all wanton dis turbances of industrial relations. It has stood fast in times of great disturbance and adhered to principle under the strongest temptation to abandon it. When such a body of men, under the wise and conserva- tive leadership it has established, determ- tues to institute great strike, it is only fair to presume that their reasonable de- mands have been refused and all expedi- ents of 8 more peaceful nature exhausted. This, we say, is the reasonable and fair presumption which can be overthrown only by evidence of facts. If the Brotherhood Is wrong or reckless or unreasonable in this instance the fact must be shown. Un- til that is done the presumption is that the Brotherhood is right and reasonable. Moreover, we hear from well-informed railroad managers, who would naturally side against the strikers, that the sche- dulles and terms demanded by the Brother hood are reasonable and just, and that like schedules and terms have prevailed for years on other western railroad systems. So far the facts seem to sustain the pre- sumption of good conduct.
 The Union Square theater, on 14th street, near Broadway, New York, was burned Tuesday afternoon, and the Nor ton house, adjoining, was considerably damaged. The total loss will be about $225, 900. Seven fremen were badly hurt by the falling of staircase during the fire, but all will probably recover. The fire originated in the hotel, though the greater damage was to the theater.

 THE >brotherhood of locomotive engineers have ordered strike on the C., B. & o. rail- road system. The demand, the refusal of which caused the strike, was that the road adopt fixed and uniform schedule of rates of compensation for all engineers, regardless of length. of service, experience, or fitness in any respect. The road has discriminated in t.is respect, having many lines and branches, and the work on some divisions being harder and involving more responsibility to the en- gineers. The brotherhood of engineers have commanded the respect of the country be- cause of it's conservatism, and it has always been said that 1t would never strike without a reason. Hence the great public is disposed to think there must now be a grievance that should be fairly considered. The immense lines under the management of the c B. X Q. system are practically tied up, though some of the principal trains are kept running, and new engineers are being put in employ as rapidly as possible. Many are offeriug, but being generally those of little experience, and strangers to the line, it would be the work of months to organize a working force from such material Yesterday Chief Arthur of the brotherhood, and the officers of the road were together in friendly consultation, and it is hoped that a settlement may be the result.

The date for the republican conven- ton was fixed some months ago. and this year, for the first time, the democratic candi- dates will be named before tine republican candidates. As it is certain that it is to be a re-nomination of Cleveland, there was no reason for waiting. Meanwhile the republi- cans, feeling more and more assured that MT. Blaine will not accept the nomination, are looking around for a man. While John Sher- man will be leading candidate on the first ballot, he is not likely to have majority, and if the supporters of Hawley, Harrison, Lincoln and others should unite on any one man they can nominate him. Connecticut should have delegation on the spot that will strike quickly for an opportunity to put Gen. Hawley in the lead.
