opened the gate, led him across the little
plot Of grass, on between the cottOnwOods,
and up through the flower beds to the door.
Then she entered the house and came out
with . chair and paced it by the horse.
'sNow, il You can get down ~ she said, with
strong concern in her mellow voice.
"You-are-very kind" and something
like smile filtered across his pale face and
vanished in q look of pain. Then slowly,
and all but crying out with the pangs Of his
injury, he got down with her help upon the
chair, but when his feet rested upon the
ground he faltered out: 'sIt-is-dark'-and
wavered as il he would fall. She caught him
instantly, and his head drooped helplessly
upon her breast. with his quick breath COM

Of his sufferings as she held him. Yet he

"No, you are bad hurt, I'm afraid" she
seid, soberly. "Can you walk few steps,

"Yes," and he drew his tagging feet
painfully across the little porch with her
help and into the shadow-darkened room.
A great homemade couch stood at one side,
and to this she led hin, and he sank down
upon it with grOan. Then she passed
quickly back into the kitchen and in
moment returned bringing lighted lamp.
His large eyes were full of pain as he
turned them about the room. and the
smoky ceiling, a huge cupboard filling one
corner. heavy handmade tables and chairs,
an old-fashioned fireplace, and a bare floor
with the girl coming across it looking large
and dusky in the blooming light, made a
picture to his stunned senses not unlike
dream. He closed his eyes. for it all
seemed to swim about him, then heavy feet
came tramping in.

An Address to the Presidenr.

~ -
w. O. Arnold. chairman OF the ex-
executive committee for division and adj
mission OF north Dakota and south Da
kots, appointed by the two state con-
v~ention recently held at Huron, has for
warded to President Cleveland the fol
lowing address:
"To His Exoellency Grover Cleveland,
President OF the United States: We,
the people OF Dakota, irrespective of
party respectfully, but most earnestly
ask simple Justice OF your hands. We
are bound by the closest ties of kindred,
friendship and patriotism to the citizens
OF the states, and request that we be
clothed with the rights and powers of
statehood for both north Dakota and
south Dakota. We have 600, 900 in
teliigent industrious people, who have
for tedious years unavailingly been i'm
plorinR entreating congress to admit us
into the sisterhood Of states.
"The two proposed states embrace an
area OF SO 1000. 600 acres OF fertile land,
which produce annually $4,000, 600 bus
hels OF wheat, and 80 600. 900 bushels OF
corn. We have $50, 200. 900 invested i'll
banking; 5000 miles OF railroad; 1000
public schools, employing 5 900 teachers
and expanding annually s. 1900, 900. We
furnish millions in precious metals and
pay millions in tribute, in the way OF
taxes to the general government.
THE committee on territories OF the
present house of representative has
turned q deaf ear to onr petitions, and
We now appeal to you. asking that the
admission OF the two states be made the
Isabiect Of q special message to congress.
"We speak boldly because we know
odf cause ls just; we ask fesrleesly be.
cause we are only asking for the rights
OF American freemen; we appeal sim
cerely because we long for release from
territorial vsssslage; we petition earn
estly because of an inherent right to en-
ffenchised manhood.
Twill the president OF the United
States, who is enthroned above all kings,
refuse the prayer OF a suffering, p~atrio-
tho people? II not, then shall there
arise In the great northwest two new
STARS whose luster shall add glory and
brightness to the thirty.eight, whice1
now adorn the old flag"

the friends of the treaty that under
no former administrator would the
Canadian govern meut have dared to
commit the atrocities and the infringe
ments Of treaty rights which have been
perpetrsted repeatedly under the pres
emit administration He oould not see how
it was that the men who steadily fought
during the late wal to destroy the union
and the American flag were more csps-
BILE of being patriotic and loyal to that
government than those who have stead
lily supported end fought for IL. He in
formed the confederate senators that
they owed tia positions they now oc.
cupy to the mercy of the north, that il it
had not been for suoh treatment as Gen
ersl Grant extended at the surrender of
Lee, when he babe the ~confederates
take their horses and implements home
and use them in putting in their spring
crops and issued rations for their sup
port, that every confederate officer and
every confederate soldier would have
been punished for treason under the
martial laws which prevailed st the
time. He was sorry TO see men stand in
the senate to-day and uphold secession,
confederacy, insurrection and war
against the union and still be upgrateful
for that mercy which the north had ex-
tended to them.
