This is the only thing that will satisfy

THIS Is HIGH LICENSE.
Owing to Some Legal Complica-

Pay $1,000.

Special to the Globe
WATERFOWL, Jan. 1s.-The county
commissioners have fixed the license
for saloons in this county at $3.50. In
addition to this the city taxes the
saloons $500. This, with the govern
ment license, eompels our saloon men
to pay 81, 800 per annum. We think
this is the highest license paid in any
city in Dakota. Tile reason for this is
that by a defect in the city charter the
county has right to collect license
from saloons regardless of any action OF
the city.

starting in for its second "Iap." 1.-THE
fish in the Sioux River at Sioux Falls
taste so strong of gas that people there
cannot eat them" 1t might as well be
added, not to suppress any part OF the
truth, that the alleged gas has
fishy flavor so strong that people here
cannot use it unless they have plenty
of alcohol on tap to cut the axle grease
out of the pipes.

DAKOTA NIpS.

| Watertown wants to send its crack
military company to the Inauguration.
| 1t would be merry lark for the boys,
| but as an advertisement it would not
| be among the lucrative investments.
Some of the old and convenient states
expect to send their militia by the regi-
| ment-5, 600 or 5000 men-and twenty
five or thirty soldiers from Dakota
would attract little attention, unless
they had band wagon to lead with
some of its special products.
-
The leading towns of the North pro-
pose to have red-hot time over the
location of the constitutional conyen-
ton to be called, presumably, by the
Bismarck legislature. Bismarck, Fargo,
Grand Forks, Grafton and Devils Lake
are reaching out, but it may be guessed
that the choice will lie between Bis
marck and Fargo. The latter will have
advantage in its hotels and churches 1t
may be that the matter will be fixed in
an enabling act at Washington.
-
An Eastern paper advises the Dakota
people to find out what name they want
before applying for admission, and init
mates that this would involve an inde1i-
mite postponement. Somehow any little
agitation in the territory, whether of
the atmosphere or mouth, is immensely
magnified on its eastern journey. There
is no more trouble about the names of
the states than there usually is in a ca
pable and well-ordered family over
natural accessions, and still it is not
often insisted that births shall be de-
layed until there is entire unanimity as
to names. There is no occasion to de-
lay Dakota statehood an hour Oh ac-
count of names.
When North Dakota is looking for a
pair of United States senators, preSum-
ing that they are to be Republicans,
many eyes will turn to II. w. LORD,
the jovial and obese old gentleman who
held the land Office at Devils Lake
about five years. He became disused as
a Michigan congressman, and came to
Dakota with a commission. Where is
the politician who would take less away
than he brought? The North counties
will stand by LORD.

Elk POINT, Jan. Considerable
discussion and excitement in the politi-
cal line is yet being INDUCED in
throughout the territory in general, and
Elk Point in particular, and nearly all
occasioned by the division and admis-
sion of Dakota question. Some time
ago the Pioneer of Deadwood displayed
commendable enterprise in securing
opinions from leading politicians
throughout the south half of Dakota on
various questions pertaining to Dakota's
admission, and more particularly TO the
Sioux Falls constitution. "a machine

ana sought after under this c0nStltu-
ton, owing to the fact that it was con-
coted and arranged few years pre-
vious, and since that time numerous
Eastern and foreign people have be-
come residents of Dakota, and cOnse-
quently were without voice in the
framing of the constitution. They now
demand. in no uncertain tones, a voice
in the shaping of the constitutions: or,
in other words, it seems only just and
right that new election be granted
them, whereby they. after careful study,
may have an opportunity to either
frame a new constitution entirely, OF
apply the amendment power to the
present Sioux Falls deal.
1t is not just and right that the pres
ent constitution be the one Dakota is to
be admitted under, though to some it
may seem proper. The newcomers
have voice in this affair, and should
by all means be granted a right to speak
on the question before further proceed
ures. The territory has been knocking
long enough at the door for admission
to the Sisterhood of states, as some claim,
and these significant few are the ones
that want
TO RUSH THINGS
to fever heat, and are overZealOuS of be-
ing at the masthead of the new state
Dakota. 1t is desired by all that this
territory be admitted at the earliest pos
sible moment, yet it would not be prac-
ticable to rush things and ''eat the fish
before it's cooked" or, in other en-
phatic words, before any direct and de-
sirable way is settled on for admission.
As matter of fact, have the many citi-
Zens of Dakota settled tremendously OH
any one fornsof admission. Though, as
some may say, and it is still evident,
nevertheless, that vote was taken Oh
this question something over a year
ago, and it was carried by rather
gauZy majority; but since that time she
has been wrangling in diScord; and at
this writing.
A NEW ELECTION
is needed, and free discussion also, to
find out exactly how the majority stand
Oh the question. 1t is evil
dent that division and admission
are assiduously sought after for
in what form is it most desired. 1t is
not necessary to swim the river to get
drink nor to linger too long on this
question, yet it is far better for all con-
cerned to thoroughly understand it than
it is to rush boldly into it ignOrantly
and repent afterwards. Mend all weak
points beforehand, and then the pleas
ures and the many benefits to be en-
joyed i'll state will come free and easy
and life will be pleasant dream.
There are numerous good reasons that
Dakota should be a state. Her 100000
people are intelligent enough, and her
many resources are worthy of being
found within the tender ties of statehood.
The Elk Point Blizzard, the recognized
Democratic authority of this section,
has at various times spoke out in en-
phatic words, and in a recent editorial
advanced the opinion that admission
was not wanted under the "machinc-
made'' Sioux Falls constitution. This
paper is not connected with cliques and
rings, but has an opinion of its own.
and speaks what it believes to be to the
best interest of the people in general
throughout the territory.

HARRISON SQUARING UP.

General Harrison's cabinet may not be announced for some weeks yet, but the opinion of those who are deemed best qualified to judge seems to be crystalliz- ing at last on the principal persons who are to be called. It is pretty generally conceded for the past few days that Blaine will have the state portfolio, All lison the treasury and Wanamaker the navy. In all future speculations on the subject this slate will undoubtedly be the groundwork on which te base calcu- lations.
 So does Harrison square himself with his creditors. Blaine is made secretary of state not because Harrison wants him, but because Harrison can't help himself. Had Blaine desired it Harrison would have remained at his law practice the next four years. As he consented to let him be chosen presidential fact, as he made him resident-Harrison is con- pelled to let him now have what he wants. He has wanted the department he had to quit when Guiteaus bullet struck down President Garfield, and he gets it. Allison is put in the treasury to get him out of the way ill 1892, and be- cause he is the one man available who may be able to keep Blaine from over shadowing the administration. Wanama- ker is put in for no other reason than that he put up s4oo, ,ooo during the campaign

BASE BALL IN WATERBURY.

~
 The matter of reviving base ball in Connecticut is receiving a good deal of attention at present, and much discus sion is being indulged in as to the avail ability of various towns in the state as components of an interstate league. Hartford and New Haven, and Bridge port to some extent, are being urged as places that would'be especially friendly to the national game. Probably they would, the two former at any rate, but the experience of past seasons IS ample testimony that Waterbury is far ahead of any or all of them in its partiality for the great American sport.
 During the summer months there Is a painful lack of amusement in the Brass city which for several seasons was sup piled by the base ball games. Our city has few if any good pleasure drives, there are comparatively few excursions and outdoor picnics, and there are with al very slim opportunities for pleasant recreation in the hours that hang heavl ly on the hands of many of our people during the long summer af- ternoons. During the summers when we had base ball there was a refuge for the dissipation of this ennui, and the death of the sport here was source of regret to hundreds of our citizens who would eagerly welcome it's resurrection. The chief difficulty of sustaining base ball in the past-one to which Waterbury was not alone compelled to succumb-has been the high salaries that have been paid to players, and the necessity of car rying an expensive equipment in order to be in the race for championship honors. But those who are seeking tue revival of the sport in Connecticut are starting from an avowed purpose ot avoiding this trouble. They promise that there shall be reasonable limit and one which would not be too great for Waterbury-to the expense of main tenance, thus making reasonably certain the success which they accord in ar- ticipation to the revival. We believe | that, with salary limit and with a league that would be guided by enter prising men, base ball can be made tc pay in Waterbury, that the proper men can be induced to take hold of the project. The history of the national game in this state proves very conclusively that in any calculations
 looking to the formation of league ir
 this vicinity Waterbury should not be | overlooked. With finely arranged grounds that are easily reached, a com.
 munity that is excellently disposed to
 the game and generous in it's patronage and a railroad schedule that is favorable l to patronage from surrounding towns Waterbury would welcome the reviva of base ball if those who are competent | to do so should undertake the project. But if we are to have the game this season there is no time for delay in mak l ing our arrangements to be in the swim New Haven and Hartford are already
 moving actively in the matter, and ii | Waterbury does not hurry up she is very likely to get left. And it ought not tt
 be said that there is less sporting blooC

 First Lady-''Well, if you listen to those piano men they will make you believe anything, but my experience has been that if you want piano for actual use and not for show only, the Shonin- ger piano is the best. I have had my Shoninger piano in use for five years and it is as good as new to-day. My cousin, Mrs Ford, thought she had a splendid high-priced piano, but the tone got so wiry that she sent it to an auction room and bought a Shoninger instead. I could tell you of ever so many more who have bought Shoninger's pianos, and if you get one you will never want to change it"

THE united brotherhood of American carpenters, whose objects are mutual protection, the promotion of a high stan dard of skill, the encouragement of an apprentice system and the establishment of a living scale of wages, met a few days ago in New York. From the report of the secretary it appears that there are now 496 lodges in the brotherhood with membership of 5000, that few strikes are on hand, that the eight-hour day has been secured in twenty-five cities and the nine-hour day in 107 cities, and that the expenditures for general benefits and sick benefits during the past five years had been S200,000. This is an excellent showing, and is very creditable to the men who make up the brotherhood
 The amount of good contained in the showing is incalculable, and every man in the trade must feel, unconsciously perhaps, the influences that are working through the brotherhood to his welfare.
