northern tier Of South Dakota after di-
vision. a split between Matthews and
Mccoy may result in the political failure
of two men worthy of q better fate.

A WASHINGTON dispatch, in speaking
of the preparations being made for the
taking Of the next census says that in all
probabilities South Dakota will get two
and North Dakota one Of the $50 super
visors to be appointed. It may be q
little soon-as these appointments are
not to o.be made until next winter-but
the TRIBUNE desires TO say that North
Dakota has not within her borders .

than Major Edwards. Of Fargo. He had
charge Of the bidecennial census Of Da-
kota in 1885, and his work was so thor
ougly performed, and his accounts and
whole management 80 systematic and
correct that the government officials at
Washington where the returns were
sent-hastened to compliment Dakota.
Never in the history Of the circumlocu-
tion Office at w ashington were accounts
allowed and money paid so speedily as
in this case. The TRIBUNE hasn't any
idea what there is in this job-it may not
be worth cent-but it is important that
North Dakota's first census-the begin.
ming Of our history should be thorough
and complete, and Maj. Edwards ls the
fttest of the fit.

suggested, Treasurer Bailey would re-
tain his reputation as q shrewd and able
financial manager

As TIE TRIBUNE stated in it's issue Of
the I'd, it was the intention OF the invita-
ton committee to invite all newspaper
men of North Dakota to become the
guests Of the city of Bismarck on July
4th. Some may have been missed but
they are invited just the same. Rowell'a
newspaper reporter latest edition -di-
vides the territory all right but it's diff
cult to keep up with the growth of the
press. Some new papers may have been
started during the past few months-not
mentioned by Rowell. McClure's
sprightlyv daily at Devils Lake is one Of
'em, Murrel up at Washburn is another
and then there is the Republican at
Steele, and the Journal up at Minot-

sent to Mcclure of the Rustler- Tribune

SOMETHING is always wrong down
there at Fargo" says the Jamestown
Alert. "When every other city was Civ
ing to the Johnstown sufferers, not a
peep was heard from Fargo. Jamestown
first sends money and gets Telegram
of thanks from Pittsbdrg. Grand Forks,
Bismarck, Devils Lake all get there and
are receipted for, but somehow Fargo
fingers along, gets switched off and comes
in late or not at all. To make it all the
more noticeable. the Argus, always q
rank, fumigating sheet, calls the atten-
tion of the public to the derelict mayor
or someone who is responsible, and
makes matters still worse. The Argus
ought to let up on Fargo, and give the
people a chance to do the right thing
once in while. Take down the clothes
lines full of fuliginous garments and
convey them directly to the rear yards
for once" Well, we'll, what is the
matter between Jamestown and Fargo?

TUESDAY afternoo,

TUESDAY afternoon the TRIBUNE
received telegram from Seattle reciting
the great loss of property and suffering
from the recent conflagration. The re-
lief committee was doing all it could
with the means at hand, but there was
a great need for more money and pro-
visions. The TRIBUNE started SUBJ
scription list and-thanks to the iber-
ality of the territorial oficials.and other
citizens 800 was raised in less than
half an hour and forwarded to Seattle by
telegraph. The governor also received a
800 draft for the Johnstown sufferers
from Grafton. Other contributions were
sent to Treasurer Bailey. This spirit of
iberality and fellow-feeling- what a
splendid characteristic of Dakota.
Bismarck weekly tribune., 1889-06-14
same as Rosser.

The Glendale Commercial agrees with
the TRIBUNE that now is the time to
''stand up and be counted" It is no
time for party desertion. The scheme to
form political combine of the farmers
alliance and prohibitionists is not a
righteous one, and is advocated only by
those malcontents whose desire for Office
is as chronic as the most pronounced
politician of the day. It is scheme to
hoodwink the people, but the people are
not going to be hoodwinked. The new
state of North Dakota will be solidly re-
publican. All needful reforms must be
worked out through the medium of the
republican party. No wandering off
after strange gods. In the forthcoming
constitutional convention and in the con-
vention for the nomination of state
officers, let the lines be closely drawn.
Let there be fair caucuses, fair conven-
tions and abide the result. Let the
fight be in the convention after that
stand by the nominees. No boiling, no
backsliding. It's brave man that can
take defeat gracefully, and strong man
that can take success modestly. Only
weak men falter when disappointed, and
selfish, unreasonable bolter is party
assassin.

The manual Of American Water-
works" contains some interesting statis-
tics regarding waterworks systems Of the
United States. It is shown that the
total value of the waterworks systems in
1883 was $432,225,546. The pumping
capacity of these works is 1926, 100000
gallons, and'yet this vast amount is only
equal to one-fiftieth Of the daily dis
charge over the Niagara Falls. Penn
sylvanis leads in the number CT systems,
173, followed closely by New York with
1865. Dakota has 26 plants and stands
ahead Of 28 states and territories, viz:
Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware,
Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Mis-.
sissippi, Missouri, Montana, Nevada,
New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon,
Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee
Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Vir.
ginia and Wyoming.

The meteorological summary report
for the month of May published in an
other column shows the lowest mean
temperature for the month of May since
the establishment of the signal service
in this city in 1876. The mean tempera-
ture this year was 1872. The lowest
record for this month in previous years
was 500 in 1883. While the rain fall
for May this year, 3.35. inches, wasl greater
than the average for the past six years,
prior to 1883 the average was fully as
great as this year showing that we have
had q succession Of very dry years. All
indications point to summer Of very
low temperature in this region, which
argues well for q bounteous yield oi
grain.

which every section can find easy and
rapid communication. Without railroads
what would this country amount to?
There would be no settlements or towns
built anywhere only on navigable
streams, and Dakota has only one river
that would afford such communication
and this for only about six months in the
year. The relations of the railroads
with the people in North Dakota have
thus far been amicable and satisfactory.
The further encouragement of this feel
ing by the constitution makers and sue
ceeding Legislatures will result in con-
tinued and unbounded prosperity alike
for the people and the common carriers
of the products Of this great region.

The water in the Conemaugh lake
raised seven feet six inches from Thurs
day night up to the fatal hour next day
at 8 o'clock, May 81. The lake had an
area Of three and half square miles.
The volume Of water required to raise it
seven and half feet, when the dam
gave way, must have exceeded twenty
million tons in weight. The lake drain
age represents eighty square miles, hence
the terrible pressure on the dam from
the mountain torrents pouring in. When
the dam broke over one hundred milliol
tons'of water went roaring down the
narrow valley.

In speaking of the change in the own
ership of the Minneapolis Tribune, Eu-
gene Field, of the Chicago News, can
didly says of retiring Editor Haskell:
1t does not transpire what the retiring ed
itor of the paper, Mr.. Will E. Haskell, will
do now. He will not have to do any work if
he doesn't want to. for his father is rich
and indulgent. The chances are that the
young man is tired Of journalism; he seems
to have very little continuity of purpose.
We fancy that he would be glad to get
the appointment to a foreign mission, and
there is no doubt that he would discharge
with ability the duties of consulship that
did not involve very much physical or IN
tellectual exertion.

That was mighty mean and ibeloua
fling the Grand Forks Northwest News
recently made at Ed Henderson, of the
Minneapolis Tribune staff. Henderson
assisted at the ssbornin'" of the first
issue of the Bismarck Daily TRIBUNE,
and for two years occupied a position
on this paper. He also served year OF
more on the Grand Forks paper. He
has written hundreds of columns OF
praises for Dakota, her resources and
her splendid advantages. His connec.
ton with the st. Paul and Minneapolis
papers has only widened the field for
his good work for Dakota. Henderson
is poor man, but he is honest, and the
charge Of the Northwest that he is a
"blackmaller 10 so cruel and SO unjust
it hardly seems possible that Editor
Bierly would be guilty of such an injus-
tice.

TIE Grand Forks Herald suggests that
a North Dakota republican committee be
raised, consisting Of one member from
each organized county, and that the
chairman Of all county republican COM
mittees meet, confer and organize such q
committee. It would avoid confusion
and do as well il Gen. Allen would call
the members Of the territorial committee
together and let it divide on the 9TH
standard parallel. Then let the North
Dakota committee take charge Of the
campaign. It is only short time till
q North Dakota convention will be cal
led-to nominate state ticket. There
is no need Of q new committee until that
time,

The Mandan Pioneer makes sugges.
ton Treasurer Bailey. It says: Morton
county is still suffering because it fails
to secure the railroad money due it from
the territorial treasury. The supreme
court has not yet passed upon the ques-
ton as to whether the counties along the
line Of the road are entitled to more than
40 per cent. The suggestion has been
made, and it is good one, that the ter
ritorial treasurer pay the 40 per cent. to
the counties. He would be sure to be
right il he did that. There is no ques-
ton 20 to their being entitled to that
much. The money is now lying idle Of
no use to the territory or the counties

SoME one in the Grafton Herald argues
that as lawyers are the best judges Of
judicial ability among members Of the
craft, they should, therefore, determine
who shall be our circuit judges. Attor-
neys are doubtless good judges Of ssjudi-
cial ability" but there are other people
who are also judges Of what constitutes
Judicial equity" Of which the people
want large amount. The TRIBUNE does
not believe in class Legislation, or class
distinction. The lawyers are not the
ones most affected by judicial edics,
although it must be admitted that there
ought to exist, Tor the best interest Of the
client, perfect harmony between the bar
and the court. The TRIBUNE does not

IT is now reported that the extension
Of the Northern Pacific from Minnewau-
kan, the contract for which will be let in
few days, will be made to Leeds in
stead OF Church's Ferry as heretofore
supposed. Leeds is about fourteen miles
west of Church's Ferry, in Benson
county. This move will doubtless please
Devils Lake, although it is probable
there was no truth in the report that q
movement was on foot to change the
county seat of Ramsey county.

IF the following from the Watertown
Public Opinion be true, what is the use
Of seeking elsewhere for the cipital Of
South Dakota. "South Dakota produces
better wheat than Russia or India. More
corn is grown, in South Dakota than in
Egypt. In commercial enterprise she
surpasses old Venice. In intelligence
she pales the lustre OF ancient Greece.
Her possibilities for further greatness lsre
unequslled on any other section Of the
globe. And Watertown will be the
the capital Of this grand empire" !"

meeting Of the entire republican COM
mittee of the territory, the South
Dakota portion has agreed to meet at
Huron on the 9th inst, to call the con-
vention for the nomination Of state off,

In the death Of Hon. Leonard SWEET,
Chicago loses one of her oldest citizens
and ablest lawyers. He nominated Mr..
Lincoln in 1850, and was his law partner
previous to that time. He defended
Banker Wintermute at Yankton in 1873,
for the shooting Of General McC Cook, and
his last political speech was the nomina-
hon of Judge Gresham at the Chicago
convention in 1883. He was nearly as
tall as Mr.. Lincoln.

BISMARCK WEEKLY TRIBUNE: FRIDAY, JUNE IA

believe with the Herald, that the lawyers
should choose the district judges, but
their views should receive respectful
hearing and their desires more than or.
dinary consideration in this matter. The
Herald says:
judicial ability. among the members Of
their craft. there can be no question and
there will be little objection from the
people to the proposal which they will
carry into effect this summer. There Is no
North Dakota Bar association, and 1t is the
intention of the members of the bar to
form q state association, and the necessary
= meeting will be called at about the time
of the convention at Bismarck. The ulti-
mate object Of the association will be
to choose the men who are best
fitted tO I'LL the position Of judges nf
the supreme court and place them before
the people as candidates and thus keep the
control of the nominations for the judlci-
ary out Of the hands Of politicians. Local

GENERAL T. L. ROssER succeeds much
better in making very loud-mouthed
ass of himself every time he talks to
Southern people than he did as a sol.
dier for the cause he now sustains with
his foul mouth. He addressed con.
federate memorial association at Staun-
ton, Va, on the Sth. He spoke of ma.
tions erecting monuments to their heroic
dead. He said the difference between
northern and southern monuments was
that in the south they were erected over
graves to virtue and patriotism, and in
the north in cities by pharisaical Yankees
to enhance realty and over the graves OF
bounty jumpers and hirelings and empty
graves. And they expected God AL.
mighty and the angel Gabriel to resur.
rect their les Southern soldiers fought
for the rights of states, and the integrity
of homes, for virtue and patriotism
northern man for pelf, plunder and pay.
He glories over the anarchist horrors oi
the Chicago police slaughter, and ap.
proves every act of the confederacy. In
conclusion he said: "Long after the
brazen images in Washington and else.
where have been thrown down and the
g. A. R., (so-called), Sherman, Foraker
Iugalls and such like shall be with the
rubbish of the French revolution assigned
to obscurity, the names of Lee and Jack.
son will be bright and glorious" And
yet there are members of the G. A. r.
who vote the democratic ticket just the
same as Rosser.
