FOR COUNTY CLERK.

We hardly believe that it is necessary
to introduce the Republican nominee
for this Office for he was reared in the
town of Sigel this county and every
body almost knows his father Ole
NatWicE. But for the information of
the new comers We will say that he is
one of Cenualia's model young men.
At present he is city clerk and engaged
with Mr. Chris. Nilsson in the furniture
business. He is an excellent pensman
and accountant and would fill the office
Of county clerk to the detriment of no
one and to the entire satisfaction of the
county. He is thoroughly and fayorably
known in the central, eastern and
southern portions of the county and
those who have the pleasure of his
acquaintance viii tell you he is just the
man for the place. He is Obliging,
social and particular in every thing he
does and courteous in his demeanOr.
He is known in these parts as J. w.
Natwick, and will answer to that name
when elected to the Office of county
clerk.

Cnmnleted Its Work

Huron, Dak., July l2-The great di-
vision and statehood convention has
com pleted its work. There has been q
general feeling among the delegates and
Others in Huron to-day that it has ac-
oomplished what 1t set out to do and
that the result will be effective and en-.
tirely satisfactory to the people of the
big territory. Tue plan of procedure
met with some little friction, but what
little was eDgendere: nas passed away,
and today everybody is happy and en-
thusiastio. There were five separate
conventions in Huron to-day, viz. !:
The farmers and business men. the law
yers, the ministers, the editors, the
general division convention and the an.
nual session of the constitutional con-
vention organized in 1885, and it has not
been much OF day for conventions
either. The general convention reas-
sembled at 10:40. The resolution
adopted by the MINISTER'S
sub.oonvention was then read. 1t
was received with applause. 1t WAS Or
dered spread upon the proceedings oi
the convention, 1t was moved and car.
ried that the proceedings of the general
convention be published throughout the
territory. The address to the people oi
the territory as read at the ratification
meeting last night was then, on motion
adopted and incorporated into the con.
vention's regular proceedings. A move
was made to reconsider one section ol
the resolution adopted yesterday, but
after heated debate it was Withdrawn
The convention passed resolutions o.
of thanks to the ladies OF Huron for The
banners presented to North and Soutt
Dakota last night.
After rambling discussion regarding
changes in the campaign committee
Hon. Waldo NJ. Potter, of Fargo, wal
added tosthe campaign committee ant
E.iH. Steele, of Mandan, to the fnanc G,
committee. Then on motion the con,
vention adjourned. A majority OF .h,

the rising and not the setting sun, 10
the dawn of united democracy and not
to the night OF discomfort and darkness.
He continued:
1, representing one division of the
democratic party at Watertown and
afterward ct st, Louis, say for myself,
for the delegates and for democracy,
let us forget the past and take these
men by the right hand and say we are
democrats and have no differences. We
are for Cleveland and Thurman and the
nominee of this convention.
This appeal did not have the desired
effect. Bangs, in his sarcastic manner,
replied that be had not expected TO
listen TO such torrent of eloquence. He
said:
Since the gentleman has gone out OF
his way to refer to past differences. l
will say that there have been past differ
ences and those differences we're carried
to the highest court at ST. Louis. Un-
fortunately for nae that court was pack
ed like they wish to pack this conven-
tion.
There WAS long continued hissinR
during which Bangs shouted:
Go 1t, boys. In regard to that deoi
sion will say that 1t was secured main
iy though lying and fraud on the part
OF the Minnesota delegation. 1 desire
to look to the rising sun, but there is q
cancer on the democratic party winch
| must be removed before the party oar
triumph.
Bangs motion was lost and Steele'f
amendments carried overwhelmingly
About dozen voted with Bangs ant
are supposed to represent Days strength
in the convention. Bangs object ia sale

The convention then took another re.

the committee on resolutions.

sent word they would be unable to re-
port until O'Clock and the convention
! was not called to order until 9:20, whel
