The records show that in his subdi-
vision of that portion of the old Sioux
Indian reservation which is in Dakota
and along the southwestern shore Of
Big Stone lake (marked A in diagram),
Deputy Surveyor Carl G. P. Meyer er-
roneously, if not fraudulently, placed
the sixth standard parallel in his sur
vey more than two miles south of the
same standard parallel of the Minnesota
surveys. This was in 1865. In
1S6S-69 Theodore II. Barrett, ac-
cording to instructions, coutln-
ued the Meyer sixth standard par
allel, which was not then known to be
erroneous, over the SiSSeton and Wahpe-
ton Indian reservation (marked B in
diagram), and from it projected the fifth
standard parallel, the seventh standard
parallel, and his other surveys within
the Sisseton and WahpetOn Indian res
ervation. In 1872 Deputy Surveyor
Iverson continued Meyers correct ex-
tension of the fifth standard parallel of
siton and Wahpeton reservation bound
ary: and from it, in 1874, Deputy Sur
yeyor Charles II. Bates surveyed the
tract (marked @ in diagram) between
the Meyer survey of the old Sioux In
dian reservation and Barrett's survey
of the SiSseton and WahpetOn reServa-
ton. In 1882 Deputy Surveyor Miles
7. Woolley
MADE A RESURVEY
of the old Sioux Indian reservation, and
connectedMeyer's erroneous sixth stand
ard parallel, placing it about two miles
north. Mr.. Barrett's work, including
the seventh standard parallel within
the Sisseton and Wahpeton reservation,
was never amended or changed, but
stands to-day where he, through Meyers
error, placed it in 1868, about two miles
south of the position it should have oc-
cupied. In 1870 Deputy Surveyor Rol-
lin j. Reeves continued the seventh
standard parallel of the Minnesota sur.
veys from it's terminus at the state line
to the northern boundary of the Sisse'
ton and Wahpeton reservation. His
extension is marked D on the diagram

Las week O,O0O for capital purposes

upon the Esd of this month the city will

William Mcintyre has gone East for
the purpose of obtaining, if possible,
the Services of that noted politician, W.
w. Dudley, to take charge and personal
supervision of the capital campaign
upon behalf of WatertoWn, and still
some newspaper publisher of Dakota,
with view of securing bride, has
just said that WatertoWn was out of the
race.
If the report be true that the men,
bers of the farmers alliance are more
dissatisfied with Gov. Mellette than
with the hostile efforts of that faction
of the Republican party which made
itself heard at the last territorial con-
vention, his excellency will by next
October, find himself in political cy-
clone. With these disturbing elements
remaining unchanged until election it
has been suggested to the written by
one of the unwashed that the Demo
Gratis might put full ticket in the field
this fall with strong chances OF reallz-
ing complete success. Republicans do
not care for the emolument of Office but
are willing to injure and neglect their
private business to accept public
trust, which affords immediate cash re-
turns. in order that the work of the
government may be properly attended
to, and the subordinate officers may
be in harmony with the administra-
ton. Dakota has sufficient patriots and
professional politicians to take charge
of the offices. They accept them not
from choice, but as duty and from
habit. The Democrats of Watertown
have their faces turned toward the fut-
ure, and are freely mentioning the
name of Hon. Bartlett Trip in connec-
ton with the governorship of the new
state of South Dakota. 1t is time that
steps should be taken by the Democrats
toward organization. And did you ever
consider the strength in politics of a
man of the sterling worth of Judge
Trip? Can an estimate be made of the
magnetic influence in politics of a man
who has lived long in community,
has an extensive personal acquaintance
with the citizens of state, and, above
all, has a character, both public and
private. which has not a blot upon it?
Under what more favorable auspices
could the new state of South Dakota be-
gin her career than by having Gov.
Bartlett Trip at the helm?

Special to the Globe.
HUKoN, S. D., July 16.-In the GLOBE
of the 18th appeared special from
Yankton with reference to the seventh
standard parallel. In it were number
of inaccuracies, some of them very
grave and likely to create wrong i'm
preston concerning this divisional line
of the two Dakotas. 1t is a matter in
which the people of North and South
Dakota are alike interested; and since
the constitutional convention at Sioux
Falls is likely to give the subject of the
existing error in locating the seventh
standard parallel some consideration, it
is but proper that the people should be
rightly informed upon this, just now,
very important question. Through the
courtesy of Surveyor General Taylor,
your correspondent ~has been per-
mitted to take from the rec
ords in his office a COM
plete memorandum of the reports rem
dered by parties who made or assisted
in making the surveys and running the
line which is now the subject of discus
sion. BY the further courtesy of the
surveyor generals office we are able to
present diagram showing the surveys
made and the discontinuity in the sew
enth standard parallel as it now exists.
The reports and the diagram may be re-
lied upon as absolutely correct.

has sent an autograph letter to the au-
thorities of Laval university, thanking
them and their sons of Quebec for the
resolutions adopted by them at the
demonstration on April % last in favor
of the restoration of the temporal power
of the pope. His holiness congratulates
them not only upon their prudence, but
upon the sagacity of their action. and
says it is evident that they well under
stand how the impunitY enjoyed by the
enemies of the church is the source of
improprieties in human society and of
troubles to the state.

James Gillespie Blaine has been so long in
public life that his history is an open secret
to every citizen. He was the son of Ephraim
L. Blaine and Marie Gillespie, and grand
son of Ephraim Blaine, who was the trusted
friend of General Washington and an officer
in the Continental Army Mr.. Blaine was
born in West Brownsville, Washington
County, Penn. January 81, 1880, and Is there
fore fifty-nine years of age.
Mr.. Blaine received his first schooling In
Lancaster, Ohio, where he went in 1S4l to
reside with near relative, Thomas Ewing,
then Secretary of the Treasury. He pre-
pared for Washington College and was
graduated from that institution in 1871.
While teaching in military school in
venture after graduating from college, Mr..
Blaine met Harriet Stanwood, of Maine, and
after brief courtship they were married.
Blaine soon removed to Augusta, where he
purchased half interest in the Kennebec
Journal and became its editor.
Mr.. Blaine's debut in the political arena
dates back to 1856, when he was chosen dele
gate to the first Republican Convention,
which nominated General Fremont for the
Presidency. After a short experience as
editor of the Portland (Me) Advertiser, Mr..
Blaine launched into political ca
reer. In 1858 he was elected a
member of the legislature, and served
three terms Of two years each, and the last
two terms as Speaker. While in thu Legis-
lature he became Chairman of the State
Committee, which position he held uninter
ruptedly for twenty years.
In 1862 Mr.. Blaine took his seat in Con-
gress, where in one branch or the other he
served for eighteen years.
From this on Mr.. Blaines biography need
scarcely be told. In the brief months of Mr..
Garfield's Presidency Blaine was Secretary
of State. His memorable fight for suprem-
acy as leader Of the Republican party with
the late. Roscoe Conkling is also too well
known to need rehearsing. So, too. is his
defeat when he ran for the Presidency
Blaine turned his attention toward
completing bis book recounting his expert
ence while in Congress, and, although he did
not take an active part in politics, he never
loosened his grip as the leader of the Repub-
tican party.
Mr.. Blaine is possessed of an ample fortune
and is a familiar figure in Washington So
ciety.

UNCONFIRMED NOMINATIONS
Appointments by Cleveland Which
the Senate Rejected.


In the second session of the Fiftisth Con-
gress President Cleveland sent to the Senate
nearly four hundred and fifty nomina,
tions, about one-half of which were con-
firmed. Of the latter a great majority were
promotions in the army and navy, and
Presidential postmasters, the terms of whose
predecessors had expired or whose Offices had
become Presidential.
The nominations of Assistant Secretary
Thompson to be Civil Service Commissioner
of First Assistant Postmaster General Steven
son to be Justice of the Supreme Court for
the District of Columbia, of William B.
Webb to be Commissioner of the District
of Columbia, and John E. Hartridge to be

District Of Florida, all failed.
The only prominent political nomination
that was confirmed was that of Walter L.
Bragg, of Alabama, to succeed himself a.
Interstate Commerce Commissioner Carroll
D. Wright was also confirmed as Com
missioner of Labor.
The nominations above named were the
principal ones that failed by reason
of the expiration of Congress. Among
the others that failed were several

He began work early and from his meagre
earnings managed always to save something
each week, till at the age of twenty-three he
had 500 to his credit. A lucky investment
in real estate increased this amount to $1,000,
thus enabling him to start a clothing store
on his own account. He soon rose to be one
of the leading clothiers in this country, and
afterward gradually converted the business
into the drygoods line.
His appearance in business was almost
simultaneous with bis advent into public life.
He became identified with every popular
