Held for the Grand Jury.

Thomas Mearns, charged with set
ting fire to Martindale's carriage
shop at Brick Meeting House, was
arrested on Saturday and gave bond
to appear at the September term of
court. He was seen by Mrs. Ida
Krauss approaching the building and
soon after his leaving it she saw the
blaze. Mrs, Krauss called her hus
band but she did more, she siezed a
bucket of water and fastening to the
fire threw the water on the flames
which checked their Roadway, and
the fire was soon extinguished.
Coal oil was thrown on the door and
match applied to the oil. We
learn that Mearns confessed when
arrested that he was perpetrator of
the crime. The officers of Farmers
and Mechanics Insurance company
had Mearns arrested. The diabolical
act was instigated by petty revenge
it is reported. Had the attempt of
the incendiary been succe ssful
several buildings would have been
burned and an old man named Slack
who was sleeping in the premise s
would have been roasted alive.

STANDING ROCK, N. D., Aug. 8.-Chief

Monday morning. The Blackfeet and

signatures of three-fourths of all the

left the agency for his camp on Grand

and his influence shown to be nothing,
even his own band signing the treaty in

Duties Of the Supreme Court.

BISMARCK, n. D., Aug. 1.-The con-
yention, through the efforts of Williams,
of Burleigh, amended the report OF the
judiciary committee by providing that
the supreme court shall give its opinion
ON any bill or question pending before
the legislature, when requested by the
legislature or governor. This was
adopted in committee of the whole, and
there was another lively tilt when Judge
Garland led the opposition, Williams
defended the proposition on the ground
that it placed the farmers of the legisla-
ture on an equality with the lawyers in
passing upon the constitutionality OF an
act. The amendment was defeated. The
article for the
Establishment of County Courts,
with pI obate and other jurisdiction, was
also the subject of spirited discussion.
the convention being pretty evenly di-
yided. This question is still to be de
cided. A resolution was adopted, pro-
viding for the appointment of a commit
tee of three, of which the president shall
be chairman, to prepare an address to
the people of North Dakota, giving
reasons for the adoption of the constitu
ton. Almen created little stir by
Offering n resolution discharging al
clerks OF committees. 1t was amended
SO that the clerks must be discharged as
soon as the committees have completed
their labors The committee on printing
has recommended that the constitution
when adopted. be printed in every news
paper in North Dakota, and that such
paper be given $25. This proposition
was defeated. The action Of the com
mittee of the whole in deciding in fsvo'
of holding three
Terms OF the Supreme Court
at the capital was changed by voting
that one term should be held each yea
at the capital, at Fargo and at Crane
Forks. Johnson, of Nelson, renewed hi
motion to make the Office OF clerk OF tn
supreme court elective, but it was de
| feated by a vote of 46 to 20. On tn
proposed adoption OF the report OF tn

The Question OF County Courts.

BISMARCK, N. D., Aug. 2.--The county
court question is still before the conven-
tion. A compromise on the question has
been offered Judge Garland, who has
led the opposition to the establishment
of the county courts, offered substitute
providing that whenever the voters OF a
county having population OF 1000 or
over shall decide by majority vote that
they desire the jurisdiction of county
court increased above that limited by the
constitution, then such courts shall have
concurrent Jurisdiction with the district
courts in all civil actions where the
amount in controversy does not exceed
81 900, and in all criminal actions below
the grade Of felony. In case Of such de-
cision by the county justices of the peace
shall have no exclusive jurisdiction.
County Representation.
The principal fight of the day was
over the proposition to give every or
ganized county a representative in the
legislature. This was opposed by the
Red River valley counties, and all of the
eastern portion of the territory as giving
the sparsely settled western portion OF
the territory more power in the legisla-
ture than it is entitled to. In reply to
this argument the members from the
West claimed that, inasmuch as the Red
river valley will have absolute control OF
the senate, the western counties should
be given representation. The western
men were defeated, and the convention
decided upon having the members OF
the house of representatives elected at
large from the senatorial districts.
Williams, of Burleigh, introduced a res
| Olution that the
Homestead and Pre-emp ption Laws
of the territory shall never be repealed
by the state, but il was jumped on by
nearly every delegate, and was defeated
Walsh, moved that the salary of the gov
ernor be So 800 instead of 5000, as pro-
vided in the report of the committee,
and that the lieutenant governors be re-
| duced from 81 900 TO 5000. This amend
ment was also defeated. The commit
tee on public institutes is still struggling
to reach report. but there is little pros
pect of success for several days.
The convention has declined to accept
the invitation of West Superior TO attend
the waterways convention at that placs
owing to the fact that the convention II

Terms of state Officers.

Sioux FALLS, S. d., Aug. 2.-Practi.
cally the only business done by the South
Dakota constitutional convention was at
the morning session, when the amend
ment came up to make elections for
state officers and Legislators coincident
with those for congressman and county
officers. After a debate lasting three
hours the amendment was lost by tie
vote but was afterwards reConsidered
and is still pending,
At the evening session the amendment
to limit the first term of the state Off
GERS to January, 1891, was carried by d
vote of 40 to SO. This will cause ar

The only business transacted in the
afternoon was meeting the senate COM

chairman of the committee, who at the
close of his remarks on irrigation took
occasion TO get In his best licks ON the
silver question, in interest of the silver
mines of Nevada. He was followed by
Senator Reagan, of Texas, who addressed
the convention
In Favor Of Irrigation,
and was followed by Mai. Powell Of the
United States geological survey, who ad
yised the convention so 10 frame the
constitution that no companies individ

ownership should be put in land, and
that no man could have control of the

question under discussion at the even

sary that part referring to God He said
it was not in the constitution OF the
