WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 1.-The
Sioux reservation bill was signed late
tonight by President Cleveland, and all
that now remains to be done is to APP
point commissioners and see that the
Indians agree to the conditions speci-
fed in the bill. Col. John
King says: 81 have seen Presi-
dent-elect Harrison and informed
him that the delay in appointing the
commissioners last year gave time for
the squawmen and others to foment dis
sensions, and l begged him TO make the
appointments early. He said: Call on
the secretary of the interior as soon as
he is appointed and confirmed and tell
him want him to attend to it speedily
and then remind me of it, and we will
see that no delay occurs" | thanked
him and will do as he says, and it is
safe to say the commissioners will be at
work by May l, if not sooner. Nh King
and all the others are happy over the
result.
oRDWAY FOR GOVERNOR.
how would y. q. Ordway suit Dakota
people for governor during the incuba-
ton of the two states? This will be
surprising. but facts given the GLOBE
confidentially to night warrant the pre-
diction that Mellette is in more danger
of defeat by the selection of Ordway
than of Harrison Allen, Gil Pierce or
any other man. There was meeting
of North Dakotians tonight at the Ma
tional hotel in Harrison Aliens room.
Present were Gen. Allen Mayor Buttz,
of Lisbon; Waldo Potter, of La Moure;
Luke Richardson and Stokes, of Grand
Forks: Judge Levessee, of Trail, and
Jud La MOure, of Pembina ThirtV-one
members, Company ID, Second regi-
ment, d. \. g., Capt. LETTERS, arrived
this morning from Sioux Falls. Lieut..
Sam Clover has the boys in tow. Por-
ter Peek, Jr., is their mascot. They
occupy their decorated sleeper
which is side tracked in SUBJ
urb. The Sioux City corn pal
ace train will arrive early in
the morning and will be met by Gen.
Belknap, with an escort of Iowans. D.
Elwell, secretary of the ''spell binders,"
has opened an Office at Wizards during
the Inauguration in the interest of the
spell. He is st. Paul man,
formerly with j. H. Drake, and also a
well-known Dakotian. He will spell
bind everything coming here from the
Northwest. Judge Palmer, of Sioux
Falls, is here, and will, after Inaugural
ton, argue before the supreme court the
case of Brown county's county seat in
favor of Aberdeen.
Fred Norris, private secretary to Sen
ator Sabin, will remain in Washington
as secretary of a telephone company in
South America. He will visit that
country soon.
HON. KNUTE NELSON SAYS:
81 will positively and finally deny
any connection with the Manitoba road,
ana shall go at once to Alexandria and
practice law, as soon as possible after
Inauguration"
Hon. S. q. Comstock says: 81 shall
remain here until about the middle of
March and return to Moorhead, where
! shall hope to remain for the summer"
Hon. Joel Heatwole says that he is
working for position in the govern
ment printing office for friend. If
Joel would open his political bosom it
would appear that he is looking after the
scalp of one William Window who is
soon to become secretary of the treas
ury, III spite of Minnesota. 1t is stated
here, by every Minnesotian who will
talk, that WINDOWS appointment will
raise ructiOn and row in Minnesota
Republican ranks. which nothing can
heal. These things were again COM
municated to Gen. Harrison to-day, but
they evoked nothing but a smile and as
senting bow from the silent man who
intends to have cabinet built to suit
himself, no matter how many hearts
ache. The prospects Of Jere Rusk, of
Wisconsin, have gone booming all day,
and it looks tonight, Judging from the
smiles and happy manners of Sawyer
and Spooner, as if they knew something
that they can hardly wait until Tues
day to tell their friends. and Rusk
is probably booked for the agricultural
department at last. But Harrison may
spit Oh his finger and wipe the old mans
name off at the last minute; his slate
is not Interchangeable as Median and Per-
sian laws.
The council continued consideration
of the appropriation bills at the session
this evening. passing one giving Grand
Forks university $4,000 to re-erect the
building blown down by the cyclone,
and the Rapid City school Of mines
$33,500 for maintenance.
