The new democratic weekly paper,
The Commonwealth, came out last week
It is published by Bert Gray, formerly OF
Moffet & Gray, and now Moffet says he
will be republican hereafter. Young
Gray is democrat naturally, but as
long as he was with Moffet -as long
as he was with mugwumps had to do
as mugwumps do. He now proposes to
stand with the unterrifed and publish a
democratic paper. He has legitimate
plant, and is modest in his ambitions.
He says he doesn't propose to be can
non in politics, but what ammunition he
has in store will he used in the interest
of democracy. Young Gray is all right.
If hecan succeed in keeping Betsey" out
of his columns he will be successful.
The democracy of this or any other COM
munity is not of the "Betsey" stripe.
The TRIBUNE welcomes the arrival of
The Commonwealth and believes it will
be an honorable and just competitor.
Success to The Commonwealth.

The TRIBUNE publishes the full text
of the prohibition law this week. II
passed substantially as introduced. But
few amendments were made. The nec-
essary two-th1rds vote to make the law
take effect at once could not be had and
the date was changed to July LIST. It is
the duty Of all law abiding citizens to
see that the law is strictly enforced. If
it is bad law, its rigid enforcement is
the only way to get it out of the consti-
tuition and of the statute books. II prohi-
bition is good thing and it can be
proven that prohibition does prohibit,
then it's enforcement is right. The law
must be given q fair and thorough trial
before its repeal can be thought Of or
urged. The republican party was not
pledged to prohibition, but it does
stand pledged to enforce this and every
other law which q majority Of the people
enact.

In reply to an inquiry as to the status
of the liquor men, who are and have been
selling intoxicants since the adoption Of
the constitution Attorney General Good.
win has rendered the following opinion:
BISMARCK, N. D., Dec. 20, 1889.
DEAR SIR: In reply to your favor of re-
cent date asking the status of the persons
who have been since November I'd, or now
are engaged in the sale of intoxicating
liquors, would say: In my opinion all per-
sons SO engaged have been and are doing
SO in violation of the law and are liable to
arrest and punishment therefor. All IL
cenSeS and license laws in force after the
adoption of the constitution, being repug-
nant to the prohibition article, became ipso
factO null and void; and since that time
there has been no authority in the state for
granting licenses for the sale Of intOxica-
ting liquors. All persons, since the adOp-
tiOn Of the constitution and the prOclama-
tiOn Of the president, having made any
sales OF intoxicating liquor, or who do 30
hereafter, are liable to arrest and punish
ment under the provisions of chapter 28,
laws of 1873, and to fnjuncti0nal proceed
ings under chapter 20. laws of 1887. The
passage of the prohibition bill by the pres
ent legislature has no bearing. whatever
upon pasG or future Ofenses until It goes
into effect July /, 1889. Yours truly.
GEORGE +. GOODWIN,
Attorney General.

Some twenty years ago he was assistant

he emigrated to Iowa and engaged in
the publication of a newspaper at EN-

The legislature has adjourned until
January 7th, leaving the work of the
session we'll in hand The prohibition
bill, the bill for leasing school lands and
quite number of other important
measures have become laws. Others are
we'll in hand, and will be pushed through
Immediately after the holidays. Some
measures, Including the seed wheat bill,
will be investigated during the recess.
The coal matter introduced by
Mr.. Williams will also be in
vestigated and some valuable
facts will be gathered by the commission
er of agriculture and labor. The matter
of destitution is also being investigated
with a view to intelligent action for re-
lief. Other measures will. be perfected,
besides the members will have mingled
with their constituents; will have gath
cred new inspiration from them; will
have, perhaps, been chided in some in
stances, and in others applauded. At any
rate good will have come to the state
from the adjoufnment.

gan from being sat down on. There is
no necessity for indiscriminate haste in
recognizing the Brazilian republic"
Pray, why shouldn't the United States
government recognize the republic Of
Brazil? tits a burning shame and dis
grace that in this age it is possible
for a member of the United
States senate to get up and
offer a resolution Of such nature
and not be able to even receive consider
alton, either for or against. It ought to
be pleasure for the United States SEN
ate, in the light of the past, if it repre-
sents the true spirit OF the American peo-
ple-which is seriously questioned to
recognize and assist in every way pos
sible, every republic that, having thrown
off the shackles Of superstition and ty-
rany, essays to take rank in the free and
Independent sovereignties Of the world.
Let us stand not upon technicalities or
be swayed by the biased opinions Of mon

WITH this weeks issue of the WEEKLY
TRIBUNE is sent out a special clubbing
supplement-. Unusual liberal arrange
ments have been made with other news
paper and magazine publishers this year,
and readers of the WEEKLY TRIBUNE can,
through it, receive other newspapers and
magazines at greatly reduced prices. The
WEEKLY TRIBUNE contains more original
local and state news, and telegraph news
than any other paper in the northwest.
It is an eight.page paper, all printed at
home and contains all the Legislative
news, in addition to it's other depart
ments. People in all parts of North Da-
kota who desire to keep posted on all
state matters, gossip around the state
Offices, ETC., should have the WEEKLY
TRIBUNE. Those who usually take the
daily during Legislative sessions will find
it to their advantage to take the weekly
edition during the year. To all who are
now taking the daily during the legisla-
tive period an extra rate for the weekly
will be made for 1890. Remember that
there is another legislature next winter
and the events of the coming summer
will be of unusual interest. It will be a
campaign season. A full set of county
officers are to be elected next fall as well
as legislature.

as far as possible and fix their pay by
law. twill head off the pressure made
upon the officers who have authority to
appoint, and save the members from a
world of annoyance. The speaker yes.
terday said he receives a petition every
few minutes signed by members of the
house, asking for the appointment Of
some one to clerkship. Hereafter,
he said, when any member signs petit
tion for the appointment of one not from
their own district it will be regarded as a
waiver of their rights to the appointment
they might ask for their own constituents.
This, if carried out, will help little, but
money can be saved and the interests Of
the state protected by legislation on this
subject ct-heroic legislation if necessary.

The bill for leasing school lands hav-
ing passed both houses of the legisla.
ture, will doubtless be signed by the gov.
ernor and become a law. It will be pub.
lshed by the TRIBUNE This Law
is of interest to every township
but more especially to those who intend
to lease these lands, or who have been
occupying them without authority. The
bill to punish trespass will be taken up
about the 10th Of January. In the mean.
time there is no protection for the school
lands that happen to have timber upon
them unless the law can be made extra.
ditive. The timber has been and is beino
stolen with impunity.

mend his appointment. johnson subse-
quently wrote to Senator Pierce, asking
that he recommend him (Johnson) for dis.
trict judge, not because he expected to get
it, but, as he told his friends, that he would
be refused. Then he would have some.
thing to kick about. That is the whole

ALL over the state the coal question
is being agitated, In Mandan a public
meeting has been held. At Dickinson
Mr.. McGilloray and other citizens arr
endeavoring to obtain a common ratt
from the railroads SO that coal can be
shipped from any point west of the rivel
to some common point east of the rive1
for the same price. Up on the Manitoba
line the people are taking hold. The
newspapers all commend Representative
Williams bill authorizing the state in,
stitutions to use the home product and
thus keep $4,000 per annum in the
state, which now goes to Pennsylvania
Before adjournment the following reso,
lutions introduced by Mr.. Williams were
adopted in the house in relation to this
matter:
WHEREAs,A bill is pending in this house
requiring all public institutions in the
state of North Dakota to use coal fro IN the
mines of North Dakota, and information
is essential to intelligent action; be it
Resolved, That the commissioner of agri
culture and labor be-, and is, hereby in.
structed to furnish this house
at as early date as pos
sible, with all available information in
relation to the coal veins of North Dakota,
indicating location and depth of veins, ex-
tent of development. ETC.;
And be it further resolved, That the
board of railroad commissioners be, and
are, hereby requested to make inquiry as
to the railroad rates from the mines in
North Dakota to points in North Dakota,
and report whether equal rates are grant
ed to all mine operators.
The people of North Dakota want
cheap fuel and it is in their power to
have it. Nature has blessed the state
with inexhaustable quantities of coal. All
that is necessary is development.
