The Late Convention.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:-The leading
editorial in the daily REPUBLICAN of
the I'd inst. fully expresses the views of
one of the minority in the convention
held at Mitchell, December Goth. So
far as we know the convention was
not called to adopt constitution nor
select seat of government for south
Dakota, but to work for the admission
of Dakota into the union. This was
perfectly fair and laudable in purpose
and had it been carried out would
have had some effect with congress.
AS it is the sum and substance of it is
on par with side show to Darnum
& Bailey's circus. Mr.. Ryan seems to
be severely criticised by the Plankin-
ton Herald yet an humble opinion
thinks it not deserved and that his
broad and statesmanllke utterances
the evening of the 20th of December
will endure longer than the critics
effete effort to tear him down. Mr..
Ryan, and those working with him,
preferred the broad gauge to the mar
row gouge to benefit the whole people,
instead of an isolated locality further
up the river and pump little life into
town lots held by spectators in Hu
ron property. A cut and dried major
ity may have rights, and SO has the
minority which opposes schemes. q.

Plenty of Time Yet.

Minneapolis Journal: Several en-
terprisiDg and ambitious cities in Da-
kota, more particularly in the south
ern half of the territory, are engaged
in very lively contest over the loca-
ton of the capital of the prospective
states. This ambition is worthy one
and not to be frowned upon; and yet
there are features of the fight which
could be omitted with the greatest
propriety. 1t is charged-generally by
those who are not friendly to di-
vision-that statehood and div1-
sion meetings have been called which
were in fact gotten up by capital BOOM
ers in the interest of their respective
cities. These charges are probably
without foundation; and yet it would
be much better to make it impossible
that the breath of such a suspicion be
attached to these meetings. Division
and statehood is the first and greatest
issue. This accomplished there will be
plenty of time to settle the question of
capital location.

A Pointer for Applicants.

Redlield Journal: Wait minute,
some of you who are deluging Mr..
Mathews with documents and certiG-
Gates of character. Wait minute, we
say! Just ask yourselves few pointed
questions. Have you ever done any
thing for your countryp Have you ever
fired gun at the country's enemy
when the enemy was within sight ?
Have you ever been of any service to
your party? Are you likely to be of
service to it? Have you eyer held out a
helping.hand to any unfortunate fel-
low-being? Are your willing to sacri-
fee your personal ambition for the
welfare of your party? Or do you
want to drag the party down into the
mire with you if it does not feel justi-
fed in attempting to carry you upon
its back? Finally, have you been, and
are you likely to be, of any service to
the congressman upon whom you are
calling for assistance to get yourself
into Office?

a call has been issued by Gen. Camp
bell and others for statehood conven-
tion at Huron on the 10th inst, which
reads as follows:
a great emergency confronts the
people of both Dakotas, in regard to
The matter Of statehood. There is ne
cessity for the citizens of South Dako-
20 take prompt and vigorous action.
Without proper concert of movement,
there is danger that statehood may be
delayed two or three years. This
would mean TO every citizen serios fl
snahctal loss and injury. The time in
which action may be taken is very
5Short. and it is therefore necessary that
haste shall be made IN whatever may
rs attempted. The people of North
Dakota have already acted.
The call further recommends that
s conventions be held in the several
counties in South Dakota on the 18th
fist. to select delegates to said conyen-
I zion on basis of one for every zoo
votes cast at the last delegate election.
sUnder this apportionment Dawson
a2ounty is entitled to seven delegates.

What Circular" Means.

Applied to Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
word peculiar is of great Importance.
1t means that Hoods Sarsaparilla is
different from other preparations in
many vital points, which make it a
thoroughly honest and reliable rnedi-
cine. 1t is peculiar. i'll q strictly medl-
cinal sense: first, in the combination of
remedial agents used; second, in che
proportion in which they are prepared;
third, IN the process by which the ac-
tive curative properties ofthe medicine
are secured. Study these points well.
They mean volumes. They make
Hoods Sarsaparilla peculiar in its cur
ative powers, as it accomplishes won
derful cures hitherto unknown, and
which give to Hoods sarsaparilla a
clear right to the title of "1rhe greatest
blood purifier ever discovered"

Advice to the Legislature.

Parker New Era: A good deal of
business will come up before the next
session of the territorial legislature, and
in view of the fact that the question of
division and admission is now pending
and its early solution reasonably Ger
tain, the great fear is that the mem
bers will attempt too much. In view
of the near approach of statehood the
wisest course for the next legislature
is to transact only such business as is
imperatively demanded. This, how
ever, is the exact opposite of the
course that will likely be pursued
There will be plenty of ambitious
members. anxious to immortalize them.
selves by introducing measures that
had better be left alone, to seriously
hamper statehood legislation, if not to
impair the cause of sta! ehcot itself.

The Capital Question.

Canton News: In selecting per-
manent capital for south Dakota no
blind rush should be made for any
town. Reason, not merely sectional
pride, should actuate the voter. 1t is
quite apparent that there was a mis-
take made in the former selection, con-
sequently care should be taken that
the next town chosen be a most proper
one for capital city.
Minneapolis Star: Mitchell seems
to realize that the recent democratic
statehood convention there was Hur-
on enterprise. The REPUBLICAN ex-
presses the belief that the recent dem
ocratic convention at Mitchell while
professedly called in the interest of dl-
vision and statehood, was really a
movement, the true inwardness Of
which was to favor Huron in her
vanlting ambition to secure the cap
| ital.

What Gen, Campbeu SAYS,

IfSpringer and the democrats will
give us two enabling acts this winter,
l am for that, as it is the quickest way.
If there is an extra session and it is
easier to overcome democratic opposi-
tion than for two enabling acts l am
for that, because it will then be the
quickest way. If no bill passes this
winter. and no extra session is called,
/ favor the legislature before its adj
journment passing two constitutional
convention bills. one for North and
one for South Dakota, because that
will then be the quickest way. Ifnone
of these things be done am for recog-
milton by congress next winter under
the Sioux Falls constitution with a
new election of officers and new vote
on the constitution, because that will
then be the quickest way.

And We Want ,Em Bad.

Bismarck Tribune: 1t is mistake
for the farmers to talk about abolish
ing the office of commissioner of i'm
migration. 1T is the most important
Office in the territory. If we don't
want new people and additional capi-
tai, we don't want anything.
Aberdeen News: A demand is being
made in some quarters to abolish the
Office of commissioner of immigration.
The territory cannot afford to do this
as immigration is secured only by con-
stant labor. The legislature can well
afford to make liberal appropriation
for this Office and let it be run for all ii
is worth during the next two years
Its returns will be of great benefit to
all Dakota.

It's Different Now.

Fargo Repu blican: A number of
good people in and about the Demo-
cratic party who have been educated
up to the point that public Office is a
public trust, with a little something in
the way of emolument on the side, as
Conllagration Jones puts it, are no
longer using axle-grease OH their hair
to expedite the erstwhile tedious and
painful process Of taking off and put
ting on their hats. Their brows are
not as bulgeful as of yore. The swell
ing is going down. The old Office shoe
horn that has helped work many a
sweat-band over many bump of self
esteem is filed away in the archives of
an administration that has required
vindication in hoss-doctor doses. three
times per day before meals, ever since
it commenced business. There is no
longer any use in attempting to con-
ceal the fact that the Democracy has
received a Christmas card which is as
fatal and unfeellng and hideous as a
comic valentine artists dream. De
nocracy's silken sock has been war

seams. or wear out. and here it is with
a rude, vulgar hole in the heel. The
blow fell with the force of an iron
hand on those who have heretofore
done pillow fighting only, and Justnow
they are in state of shock, and really
contemplate Offering reward to learn
who threw the brick.

Muron,s Great Scheme.

Mt. Vernon Gazette: We are in re-
ceipt of circulars offering us the oppor-
tunity of buving options on Huron
lots. We can pay so much down and
the balance when Huron becomes the
permanent capital of south Dakota.
We have, nothing to lbet on any
town but if in the habit of doing so
would wager that Huron never would
be the permanent capital of south
Dakota. But one thing is certain, the
real estate men of Huron are rustlers
and will get up boom if left alone.

To ne Editor Of he Dispatch:
Never in the history of Smithfield was
this ancient city more alive than last night,
the occasion being a boat-carnival gwen
by the young men Of the bOat-housc.
BY 9 o'clock the party assembled. There
they found the boat-h0use, and each boat
beautifully and artisticallv decorated with
lights of every color and hue. A large boat
with band Of music was the first to move
out, followed by a line of smaller boats
flied with the gallant boys and pretty
girls of Smithfeld.
BY the dcxterOus plotting Of Mr.. CowlinS
the line formed many pretty and odd
designs, among them a perfect double =.
Some one gave 1t the appropriate signlfi-
canoe of the SplendOr of Smlthtield.
After rowing for more than an hour the
party boarded a largo schooner (Which had
been previously Illuminated from its top
mast to IFS cabin. and were there gracious
" and gracefully received 10y Mrs. j. j..
Boykin. Mr. j. q. Wilson, and Mr.. G. Is.
Hayden. They partook Of an elegant
banquet and gave the finest display Of
fireworks that has ever been seen IN

able affair. but all such occasions have
their extremes, and we had ours.
There were two extremely pretty girls :;
two extremely gallant young men,

timentH couple; the most extremely anna
bic and pleasant chaperon that Virginia
could give Mrs. Il. +. Boylun.
