Some of the beauty seen in Broadway

be a reform well started in the matter OF
artificial blondes, and for awhile some OF
the foolish users of bleaching acids

cult for fashionable sinner of this sort
to become good. It was necessary to
either let the natural color of the hair
assert itself at the roots, and slowly pro-
gress outwardly, thus leaving for q con-
siderable time sharply defined border
between the two hues, or else cut all the
hair off closely, and wear a wig until
new growth was secured. Many repent

right, however, ard it was hoped that
the yellow mania would entirely subside'
But there is a relapse, at least among the

NEW YORK. Dec. 31.-The Heralds Of
iowa dispatch says: The minister of
customs has forwarded an official reply
to the application of Consul General
Phelan, of Halifax, in reference to the
American fishing vessel Dillaway, now
in port at Halifax for repairs. The min
lister of customs denies that the action in
the case of Batson can be considered as
precedent, as the collector of customs
in that case permitted transshipment of
cargo without authority and has since
apologi=ed to the government for his
unwarranted action. AS regards the
present application on behalf of the
Dillaway, the minister declines to accede
to the request of the consul general and
states that the Canadian government in
tends to restrict the privilege Of trans
shipment of cargo to vessels that have
secured licenses under the modus vi
vehdi. .

from Dubuque, Iowa, says: Surveyor
Mclaughlin, of the port of Dubuque,
seized the stained glass windows for the
Catholic cathedral upon their arrival.
On the arrival of the car containing the
glass the collector broke the seal and
took possession of the contents, placing
man on guard. The surveyor says:
.The treasury department has no right
20 exempt the windows from duty. For
doing 80 the secretary is liable to i'm
speaoh1hent and were he to ignore the
dignity of his Office in the manner re-
ported would hold him strictly account
able. / am for this occasion the court
OF original jurisdiction, and if my de-
cision is not satisfactory appeals may be
taken successfully to the secretary Of the
treasury and to the supreme court of the
United States" The bishops attorney
and Father Burke, pastor of the cathe-
dral, visited the surveyor and vainly en-
deavored to convince him that the goods
were exempt from duty, being works of
art designed for church use. The sur
veyor evidently considers himself big
ger man than the secretary. The duty
amounts to about $4,000.

The Chicago, Milwaukee Il st. Paul
railroad company is sending few
reliable men from each county in
Dakota through which their lines run,
to their former homes and return, free
of charge to aid in uhe good work of
securing immigration to this fertile
and favored land. This is a practical
response to the query which recently
went the rounds: "Whst are the rail-
roads of south Dakota doing to indu ce
settlers to locate here?" And it is an
additional indication of the faith
which exists in the glorious future of
this section. We predict that the
spring of 1889 will see a return of the
good old times of 1923 with this
improvement-the class of settlers to
come into the country Will have more
means for its development than did
the pioneers. though not superior to
them in character, enterprise and in
domitable perseverance.

Mitchell REPUBLICAN,: The REPUD-
LICAN is at loss to understand the
animus Of the Yankton Press when it
palpably misstates the truth in saying
that Mitchell has "pointeuly ignored"
the statehood movement cup to the
avn of probable success"
Yankton Press: There isn't a
particle of animus in the remark. 1t
is a matter of record that Mitchell
declined to be represented in the con-
stitutional convention ofSouth Dakota
and it is well known that Mitchell was
in close alliance with the anti-division-
lists of the north.
Why not tell the whole truth while
you are about itY It is matter of
record that Mitchell was represented
in the original statehood movement as
embodied in the Sioux Fall convention
Of 1883.
Its az we'll q matter of record
that she was guilty of the sin of
omission by allowing her representa-
tion in the Sioux Falls convention of
1885 to go by default.
| It's also matter Of record that she
voted on that constitution, contributed
her quota of officers to the machinery
of statehood, has been represented in
the legislature and all other gatherings
| in connection Herewith from that day
to this, and has done her share toward
advancing the interests of division and
statehood since those issues have been
the paramount ones.
If that be to pointedly ignore the
4 statehood movement up to the dawn
of probable success, then the aspersion
of our esteemed Yankton contempor-
ary is justi6able; with equal justice,
however, it might be alleged that when
the Yankton Press gave up in disgust
because the restraining clause of the
Sioux Falls constitution was not re-
pealed it not only ignored but positive
ly antagonized the statehood move
ment.
1 The REPUBLICAN does not claim
that Mitchell and Dawson county have
always lived up to the standard which
the Yankton Press has so rigidly set
up for all its neighbors; but so far as
that is concerned, neither has the ma
1 jority sentiment of the earnest friends
of statehood seemed to have been ad-
justed to that same standard.
/ Mitchell is willing to stand or fall
by her record, but she insists on that
irecord being fairly stated.

The Huronite, referring at length to
the proposition to talk. new vote on
capital location, saws:

AA"' o''tle, IGteIFIHg at lengCn 10
The proposition to TAX. new vote on
capital location, says:
Is it worth while to go into an un-
seemly Wrangle over this small mat
Ter! Why, in contest, Huron would
enaVe many good reasons for making
ner usual vigorous canvass, and would
propably, as heretofore, come out ahead.
Gan Madison and Mitchell and Sioux
ralls and Watertown and Redfield and
chamberlain and Pierre afford to re-
new the local lhair-pullings, and involve
themselves In the expense of making
respectable fight, to say nothing of
driving Huron to do the same, for this
small matter, just on the eve of an
election for the permanent location?
The consideration of our sprightly
neighbor for the rest of us is truly
touching; but if its logic is good for
anything it is as we'll applicable to the
resubmission of any part of the consti-
tuition and new election of officers as
1t is to the matter of capital location.
Why, indeed, go into an "unseemly
wrangle"-if to express ourselves at
the polls be an unseemly wrangle-over
any OF these propositions? We under
stand that delegate Clifford will en-
deavor to amend the Platt bill SO as to
provide for new election of state Of
Ulcers, and senators and representatives.
Why should heprecipitate an "unseem-
ly wrangle" on the people of Dakota
just on the eve of admission? If any
reason exists for this much of new
deal, it exists as strongly for all the
propositions involved, and we are sur
prised that our Huron friends are not
able to see it. Their assertion, or rath-
erimplication. that Madison and Mitch
ell and Sioux Falls and Watertown and
Redfield and Chamberlain and Pierre
are disposed to precipiJate wrangle,
and that Huron is the only community
/ which is perfectly in harmony with the
situation reminds us of the Irishman
in the army, who was the only man in
the whole company who was marching
in step.
And when we read such expressions
as the following from our sister city up
the valley. we are at loss to under
stand the pertinacity with which she
clings to her temporary advantage,
even to the extent of putting up demo-
cratic conventions in it's interest. In
this same extended argument appears
this deprecatory paragraph:
Why not all leave these small mat
ters over for the present, and unite on
the one object of getting a state whose
people may very soon and very proper
ly put their capital where, in their
judgment, it will best serve their own
convenience.
