OF COURSE THEY'RE GLAD.
Messages Announcing the Pros
poets of Statehood Cheered by
Dakota Legislators.
Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, OAK, Feb. 15.-Several
members of the legislature received
kilograms from friends in Washington,
during the session to-day, announcing
that there were encouraging prospects
of statehood. They were read in both
houses and greeted with spontan
eOus Outburst of tumultuouS applause.
A Joint resolution thanking Dakota'S
friends in congress was rushed through
in fifteen minutes. Senator Lowry re-
marked, when the first telegram was
sent: "Othello's occupation is gone"
The feature of the days pro-
Of
the soldiers home measure in
the council. Immediately after
the bill was called up Crawford asked
permission to withdraw his bill locating
the home at Pierre. thus leaving Hot
Springs a clear track. though it
proved to be a heavy one. The
debate became heated and some bitter
personalities were INDUCED in. Ryan,
the Democrat from Aurora, opposed the
measure and was pounded unmerci-
fully for so doing. He thought
he had been insulted and made
quite a stir, President Stimmel
repeatedly calling him to order. As was
the case when the measure was before
the house, the terrible political warning
OF threatening to brand its opponents as
enemies to the old soldiers fright
ened timid members into line, and the
bill passed on vote OF IL to 9. Forty
five thousand dollars is appropriated.
Gov. Church, it is thought, will veto it,
as he did two years ago, and then some
great blutling will be necessary to pre-
vent the veto from being sus-
mending that the agricultural college
be located at Valley City. A minority
report favored Fargo. The committee
on education reported recommending
that the Normal school be located at
Wahpeton. The newspaper bill barely
PASSED OVER THE VETO,
seven votes being recorded against IT.
Several bills amending the insurance
law were passed, the radical provisions
being eliminated, notably the section
req firing companies to pay face value
of policy. A message was received
from the governor, after the reading of
which the president announced with an
air of mystery that its contents must be
considered in executive session. 1t was
merely the nomination OF trustees for
Brookings college. G. w. Abel,
Huron: John Martin, Watertown: 0. L.
Grathen, Brookings; John Allison,
Bookings; G. c. Crosse, Highmore.
The last name caused a great angry
party roar to shake the build
ing. He is the man that bolt
ed the Republican ticket last
fall, and supported Harden on the
tariff reform platform. All the names
were hung up along with the other
nominations. There was a hot fight
| in the house over the bills 10
eating normal schools. AS before
stated, the chairman of the committee
in charge of this matter refused to re-
port, claiming fraud in the vote.
Newman, author of the bill es-
tablishing it at Minor, claims
that the committee voted to
recommend the passage of his bill. He
brought the case up in committee of the
whole and succeeded in having his
measure indorsed, thus defeating Lis
| bon and its representative, Ellitt.
| Patton's bills segregating Lawrence
| county and creating the county OF
| Meade passed. Another woman's suf-
| frage bill was introduced. 1t allows
women taxpayers only to vote. Nc
Hugh submitted plan, TOR extracting
taxes from express companies.
King is Supremacy Happy.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Col. King is
radiant this evening after having an.
other conversation with Senator Dawes
| He SAYS: 1.-THE Sioux reservation will
| be opened early this spring. 1t was a
| great achievement to get 81 100000 ap-
| propriated, as we did, and without any
| objections. That bill was less than hall
an hour in passing when we finally got
| to it.'
