LA INQUIRE, N. D., March 20.-Poli-
ties in the state of North Dakota are
being manipulated at present by non
residents, while the actual settlers smile
and say but little. 1t is quite we'll set
tied in the minds of two gentlemen, and
perhaps few of their intimate friends,
that Gilbert Pierce and Harrison Allen
are to be our two United States sena-
tJrs; but there are many little "slips'
between now and the time senators will
be elected, and it is very doubtful if
they will have walk-over for the posi-
lions. In the first place, thelmpression
is general among the people that North
Dakota has good senatorial timber
WITHOUT IMPORTING
1t from some other states; and the fact
is that the Farmers Alliance will cut a
wide swath in politics for the next year
OF more in this country. and the farm
ers, as people, have very little use
for the professional Officeseekers, or car
petbaggers especially. They do not
care to elevate to positions of honor or
profit people who are among them only
by the accident of United States COM
mission to some fat office. Then. again.
neither of these would-be statesmen
has any particular place in the state
which wants to be credited with his
residence in the equitable distribution
of the various offices. EX-Gov. Pierce
doesn't know whether to claim James
town or Bismarck as his residence, and
neither place wants to be the founda-
ton of his boomlet for senator. Bis
marck has brilliant candidate in the
person of Hughes, who is supposed to
have made himself pretty solid with the
granger legislature of this winter. and
who has hosts of friends all over North
Dakota. 1t is nearly conceded now
among the wirepullers that the state
will
HAVE FOR SENATOR'S
Hughes, of Bismarck, and V. A. Stone,
of Fargo, with Alfred Dickey, of James
town, for governor, and Walsh, of
Grand Forks, for congressman, with the
other state officers parceled around
where they will do the most good. This
plan will clip the aspirations of S. l..
Glaspell, of Jamestown, who is now
pulling all the strings he can catch
Sight of for congressman. He sees in
himself very available material for an
M. c., and would make good man for
the place, but he is thought to be young
enough to wait few years.
The men who are eminentlv qualified
for judicial positions are not as plenti-
full in our new state as the cottonwood
trees are Oh the Missouri bottoms.
JUDGE ROSE,
who has gained such reputation. dur
ing the short time which he has oc-
cupied the bench. for eminent judicial
ability and fairness, will undoubtedly
be called to the supreme court of the
state, and the position now ocen-
filled from the ranks of the attorneys
of the district; and one of the most
eminent attorneys, and the one that is
conceded by the bar to be as well quail
fed for the position as any attorney in
North Dakota, is j. NJ. Bartholomew, of
La Moure. He is q Republican, mem
Der of the G. A. r. and citizen that
any city can be proud of. x. w,
