does. They have not forgotten Mr..
Cleveland's attitude in the retaliation
b isiness, or the fact that he had the
courage to give En- sland the first rebuff
she has got from this country for a long
time.
"As far as Lord Sackville is concerned,
he ought to be recalled at once, because
he has clearly interfered with the poll
tics of this country. My own impression
is that he wrote his letter for the purpose
OF injuring President Cleveland. He
found that Mr.. Cleveland could not be
managed so easily, and he may have
thought that Harrison, who is an old
woman, would make his post more easi-
ly tenable for him. A diplomat does not
like to fall, you know. Thinking this, he
may havelwritten this letter beforehand,
anticipating the use that would be made
of it. / do not know that this is the
truth, but it is absurd to me to suppose
that he wrote the letter not knowing the
effect it would produce if published, and
then mailed it to a man he never heard
of before. ."-[Examiner Dispatch.

Boss 'Quay's importation of election
sharps from Philadelphia to prevent
frauds" in this city is one of the grim
NEST jokes of the campaign. New York
has had more honest elections in late
years than any other large city in the
country, while in Philadelphia they are
notoriously corrupt. The World is for
the prevention and punishment of elec-
tion frauds by whichever party attempted
or perpetrated. But we warn Chairman
Quay's promoters of purity that their
Boss is not member of the Board of
Pardons in this State, as he was in Penn
sylvania when he procured the release of
the five confessed Republican bribers in
$780,. If they get caught in any crooked

Republican,s Prayer.

Oh, Lord, thou knowest our uprising
and especially our down-sitting. Thou
knowest our sins and understandest that
We have done many wicked things in
the sight of the people, and that we no
longer have favor in their sight. Thou
knowest that the negro has forsaken our
party, and that we can no longer make
them believe our campaign tales that
the Democrats will put them back in
slavery. Oh, that we could pull the
wool over their eyes as of yore and get
them to put us in power once more.
Thou knowest that the Southern Repub-
licans no longer cleave to us. Thou
knowest that the people of the North
have no faith in the "Bloody Shirt
and that we are besieged on the right
and on the left by Mugwumps." /"
Thou knowest that Cleveland's message
has knocked the wind out of the "tariff
tales" that New York is hopelessly
Democratic, that Ohio is doubtful, and
that We no longer count on Indiana.
Thou knowest how our servants Malone
and Riddleberger responded and died in
Virginia. Thou knowest that we have
no leader, now that our plumed knight
has been ruthlessly slaughtered, and that
we, his people, must be scattered as
sheep that have no shepherd, to be de.
voured by mugwumps and weak knees
Now, We ask that our sins and iniquities
be blotted from this Government. Blot
out the name of Joyce, Avery, Nc
Donald, Mckee, Gunther and all
who walked crooked in the sight of
the people, or made or drank crooked
whisky, and Oh, Lord, give US the power
to blot out of "Remembrance" the name
of Belknap, Of Hayes, and the eight
against seven Credit Mobilier Star Route
contracts and numerous other wrong
doings, and give US favor with the people.
Give us stump speakers in Indiana and
orators in Ohio. Give US back the
Negro vote and return us the Southern
Republicans with tens OF thousands ol
mugwumps in the North. Give us
stump speakers in Indiana and orators
i'll Ohio. Give us money by the millions,
and above all, give us man to beat
Cleveland, for our sake. Amen.-[Scott

ment. But it is not against any of those
things now; it is underneath them. Tie
country in its grand sweep has left all
these things to history. They are no
longer subjects of debate they are his
torical facts. They are the sun-lighted
peaks Of our most brilliant epoch. We
have climbed the rugged and bloody pass.
The lowering clouds have lifted or have
fallen in refreshing showers. It is time
of peace and Of amazing prosperity
throughout the land. So far as lcgisla-
tion and public administration can shape
the course of events, these things come
because of the wise, courageous and

our Exemption Laws.

Grand Forks Plaindealer The Mime
apolis Evening Journal comes out in fa-
vor of reducing the exemption laws as at
present fixed by the territory OF Dakota.
The Plaindealer touched up this subject
two years ago, and four years ago, and
six years ago. The other side of the case,
however, made such good campaign cap.
ital, and the general business of the terri
tory was SO new and in such u mixed up
condition, that it seemed useless to urge
the proposition. But, as matter of fact,
it ta.es but a moment Of redection--or,
still better, but one hours experience in
any register of deeds Office in the terri
tory Of Dakota-to readily determine the
fact that the farmers get little, if any,
benefit from their $1,000 personal prop.
erty exemption. For every dollars worth
of credit he obtains he is compelled to
waive his exemption rights by attaching
his signature to chattel mortgage, which
places his property more readily at the
mercy of his creditors than it would be if
his creditors were compelled to enter suit
take judgment, and levy under an execu-
ton. The farmers Of the territory are
not benefited one iota by the excessive
features of our exemption laws, and they
are injured to the extent of having their
credit impaired and being unable to get
credit except by resorting to chattel mort
cages. The exemption law ought to be
modified, in the interest of every citizen
in the territory.

Dnkota,s BRIGHT Prospects,.

In long editorial on Dakota's bright
crop prospects the Sioux City Journal
says "There Is grain enough in Dakota
to make sufficient bread for the cont
nent, and it is in demand at good prices.
When this prodigious bou nty of grain
the wheat, oats, fax and rYe-shall have
been marketed, the money which will be
paid therefor will be more than enough
to ransom king. 1t will be poured as
the very blood Of life into the veins Of
trade through all the territory. 1t will
provide with comforts tens of thousands
of families. 1t will go into improve
ments everywhere--into houses, churches
and schools. From many house it will
drive away the lingering shadow of the
mortgage. In the aggregate 1t will make
Dakota as rich as the soil is fertile. II
will nerve its people both with stronger
heart and better means for the future,
and at the same time be the evidence
which will beckon to thousands of Others
to come and make their homes in land
so favored"

THERE is beginning to be some talk r.

THERE is beginning to be some talk ret
garding county political matters. The
chairman Of the Republican county cen
tral committee is in correspondence with
the ether members of the committee rela.
tive to the date Of holding the county
convention. In 1885 it was held on Oct.
H.. The date for the convention this
year will probably be during the first
week IN October, if the legislative con-
vention be not held at an earlier date
than in '86. That year the Twenty third
District convention was held at Bismarck
on Oct. IS, and Emmons County's dele
gates thereto were chosen at the regular
county convention. It seems to be the
general desire to have the same thing done
this year. But, if the district legislative
convention shall be set for an earlier date
it will necessitate an earlier date for the
county coHtsntion. But all Republican
voters, whether or not prospective candl.
dates, may rest assured that plenty OF
time will be given between the date Of
publishing the call in the county papers
and the holding of the convention, anc
also between convention and election
days. "a fair field and no favor will
be the watchword of the county centra

Tho Difference.

jamestown Alert; The difference be-
tween broadcast seeding and that done by
drills is now plainly seen in the fields.
Grain sewn by the press drills IS away
ahead of the broadcast, as it got down in
the moist ground and began growing
within five or six days after seeding.
HE broadcast seed got in the dust, and
much Of it failed to sprout until late IN
the season. The seed sown by drills was
pressed down and kept in place. In
fields standing side by side, where broad
cast and drill seeding was done, the
drill work shows plainly to be the bet
ter, both in the advanced condition Of the
crop, as rule, and the evenness of the
grain as 1t stands.
