LET not the people of North Dakota
hug to their hearts the delusion that
their country is less favored by natures
god than that of the old and populous
states. Think of the dreadful storms of
water, wind and snow that have gone
bowling from Michigan to the Atlantic
sea-board, and of the killing frosts that
travelled east through the middle states
like a blighting curse. Think of the
half-starved, homeless thousands that
went to the Pacific coast with the golden
vision of rolling in wealth, where there
is no work to be had or even an opportu-
nifty to grow up with the country. There
is undoubted evidence of all this, and of
suffering among those who have no
money to get back east again. North
Dakota is the middle land of promise
for all.

The "Old Pioneer Always to the Front.
The following from Mr.. j. G. Pond of
the Northern Pacific passenger depart
ment, in Mondays Fargo Argus, the TR1B-
UNE is glad to copy-just the same as if
Pond had come to Bismarck-which he or
Fee will doubtless do on the Fourth:
No. starts out of St. Paul to-day with
two sleepers for the Pacific coast, and this
will be the regular thing hereafter. One
sleeper goes via Wallula junction and Ia
coma, which makes two through sleepers
to the coast without change. And speak
ing Of sleepers, by the way, we have some
new Pullman's with original internal ar
rangements. The finest IN the land. Two
drawing rooms, hot and cold water, and
one of the newest and neatest arrange
ments for the gentleman's lavatOry-cut
off entirely from public gaze as. passen-
gers may go out on predatory excursions
to the dining car. All these things and
more. The sleepers are finished in the
highest style of art The pullman CON
ductor goes through via Pasco and Ia
to make it pleasant for the patrons Of the
Old Pioneer line, aud our passenger traffic
shows how it's appreciated No.
l, the great through transc0ntinental train
of vestihule and dining cars-in two Sec
tions. Remember the Northern Pacific
was the first road to the coast to inaugurate
daily service of vestibules and dining
car service.

The TRIBUNE has suggested hereto
fore that large Legislative representa-
ton rather than small one will be
desirable in North Dakota because of
the fact that it will bring the govern
ment nearer to the people and not neces-
state the joining together of two or
more counties to form district. Each
county ought to be a district, so far as
the lower house is concerned, and addl-
tional representation given according to
to the population-say one additional
for every 1000 votes. That old veteran
Waldo NJ. Potter, of the LaMoure
Chronicle also believes in some such
plan, and thinks the South Dakota plan,
where each district with one exception
embraces only one county, an excellent
one. In Indiana, each county is assigned
a representative, if entitled, and where
there is surplus of population two
counties are joined in district from
which an additional representative lis
chosen. Potter's ideas are sound.

men, armed with allithe modern imple-
ments Of war, and at least twenty-five or
thirty-six hours time. The number of
men killed in the three days fight at
Gettysburg, on both sides, did not exceed
10000, hence the swiftness and magni-
tude of this great disaster can, in a
measure, be realized. Two entire pas
senger trains were swept into the tor
rent, and all the passengers drowned.
lnhuman men-monsters were caught
robbing the dead, and either driven into
the water and were drowned, or were
lynched. The human suffering and
agony that stalks widespread through
that once prosperous and happy country
is beyond the power Of human sympathy
to relieve. Let us thank God that We, of
the great rolling prairies Of Dakota,
have much to be thankful for. We may
have blizzard and prairie fires, but
with all these combined, not a tenth of
such loss of life and property by natural
and violent causes has occurred in Da-
kota since 1861 as was caused in one
short hour along the banks of that
Pennsylvania stream.

The committee on invitation for the
Fourth Of July celebration have sent out
invitations to all newspaper boys in
North Dakota. They are invited as
guests of the city-which means great
deal-and it is expected the importance
of the event and the earnestness of the
invitation will bring the newspaper
men together on this occasion. II any
have been missed, it's the fault Of the
newspaper directory-Rowelps latest,
with Dakota divided-and all are in.
vlted just the same. An early reply is
asked that ample preparations-and
plenty to eat and-may be had. This
would be grand time to organize the
North Dakota press association say on
the day following the Fourth. It may
be sentiment, but it will be great deal
OF satisfaction for one to be able to say,
in years to come, that he attended the
convening of the constitutional conven-
tion for the great state of North Dakota.

1T seems that the United States,
through it's conferees on the Samoan
affairs, has come off victorious in all par
ticulars. The constitution of the gov
ernment of that island is provided for,
and in this feature Secretary Bayard's
proposition to the first Samoan confer
ence has been virtually adopted as a
whole. The islands are to be governed
by the native king and vice-king, elected
by the Samoans. These two officials, to-
gether with the chiefs of the Samoan
families, or clans, will compose an upper
house of the native legislature. This
upper house is styled the taimua. The
lower house, or faipule, is to be made up
of native Samoans, chosen by the people
upon the basis of one representative for
every 1900 people. The treaty guaran-
tees the restoration of the statu quo ante
and the rehabilitation Of Maleta as
king of Samoa. This point was long re-
sisted by the German representatives in
the plenary conference, but was finally
conceded.

OLD soldiers who were in the Army of
the Potomac in 1864 declare that whole
commands then voted for Mcclellan and
that the returns were changed to Lincoln.
This may have been justifiable as war
measure, just as much as the contract to
pay the soldier meant greenbacks at IS
cents on the dollar while the contract to
pay the bond holder meant $3. .19 in green
backs for every dollar in gold. All repub-
lican necessities are righteous!-North-
west (Grand Forks News.
In the first place old soldiers who were
in the Army of the Potomac do not claim
any such thing and in the second place
if, as fre-eater Bierly says, the soldiers
were paid in greenbacks worth only IS
cents on the dollar, it comes with very
poor grace for democrats of the Bierly
stripe-found in congress by the score
to kick against liberal pensions to those
who not only fought for the preservation
of the union, but who received the mere
pittance of $13 month-in currency of
deprecated value at that.

The prohibitionists at Jamestown this
week were evidently more earnest than

The following plank appears in the reso-

Resolved, 9Th, That this convention re-
commend to the various county orgaiza-
tions that they procure the names of all
saloon keepers; men employed by
saloon keepers; bondsmen of saloon keep
ers, or men owning buildings used for sa-
looms or drawing a revenue directly or ln-
directly therefrom, and if possible have
the same published In their county papers.
In case papers will not publish such in
in circular form and sent to every voter in
the county,

The TRIBUNE does not believe that
the heart of Colonel Warn nock-the best
editorial writer in Dakota-is one-half
as bad as one would imagine from read
ing the Jamestown Capital-which says
such bad things of Bismarck. jamestown
is such nice little city-full Of enter
prising men, and Bismarck is so proud
of her neighbor-it is really as
tonishing that Colonel Warnock should
write such bad and untruthful articles
about Bismarck--where Warnock has
friends.

has been purchased by it's former owner
Mr.. A. J. Blethen, and complete reor.
ganization OF the working force is an
ticipated by the newspaper boys-which
includes Henderson and Schultz. Rumor
also has it that arrangements are being
made whereby the Evening Star will also
fall into Blethen's hands, and that Frank
Mead-disappointed at Washington
will take the position of managing ed
itor. Frank is a good newspaper man,
and can make success of the Star If
any person can. It is hoped Henderson
and Schultz will fall 'sright side up''
somewhere.

AN informal business meeting of the
editors and publishers of North Dakota
ie called to meet at Fargo, on Saturday,
Jnne Is, 1889, at the Columbia hotel for
the purpose of discussing the orgaiza-
tion of North Dakota Press association.
All editors and publishers favorably IN
clined are earnestly requested to attend.
The TRIBUNE would suggest that this
informal meeting be followed by formal
meeting at Bismarck on July 5, for the
purpose of effecting a permanent or
ganization..

TO THE FARMER.

The TRIBUNE may be mistaken, but it
believes it is publishing pretty good
weekly edition. All the important local
and telegraph news of the daily is boiled
down into the eight pages of the weekly,
and if the readers will but compare the
number of items in the Weekly TRIBUNE
with that of other weeklies he will dis
cover this fact. The TRIBUNE is printed
on small type, and often what would
make column in large type in other
papers, would occupy only small cor
ner in the TRIBUNE. The TRIBUNE also
calls attention to it's weekly chats with
the farmers on crop prospects,, and in
this connection it desires to extend an
invitation to each and every farmer on
the Missouri slope to call on the TR1-
UNE when in town, and to send in at any
time any items of news in their locality.
It is the aim of the publishers to make
the Weekly TRIBUNE the best paper
published for the farmers of the slope.
It believes the farmer wants news, and
knows news when he sees it. He wants
to know what is going on all over the
world, and doesn't care anything about
the editor, his quarrels, or what anybody
else thinks of the editor. The farmer
who takes and pays for newspaper
wants his moneys worth of news, and
doesn't care whether the editor has red
hair or wears wig. He knows what is
chaff and what is wheat in newspaper,
and he wants the paper that will give
HIM the most wheat. A critical inspec-
ton of the TRIBUNE is courted.
Bismarck weekly tribune., 1889-06-07
STAND UP AND BE COUNTED.

It is said the farmers have majority
in the forthcoming constitutional con-
vention. Because. of this fact few
papers, protesting to be republican, are
uIging the farmers to unite and organ
ize the convention. This is cheap clap
trap for the farmer. It is all right that
the producing class, which constitutes
the majority in Dakota, should have its
proper representation in all law-making
bodies, but this it can have without
weakening, destroying or deserting either
of the two great political parties. If
reforms are needed let them be worked
out in the party which gives the most
respectful ear. This is crisis in
Dakota's history. That we owe our de-
liverance from territorial vasalage to the
great republican party is as true and
undeniable as the fact that the preser-
walton of this union was effected
through the same medium. Let us not
be ingrates. What ever may be said of
Dakotans let it never be recorded that
they are unappreciative and unstable.
The time for the nomination and election
of complete state ticket is not far dis
tant. Let every man stand on his
own merit: If you are a republican
stand with the republicans; if you are
democrat pray God for forgivness, but
better be democrat than nothing; if you
are mugwump take off your sleeps
clothing-no sailing under false colors.
The issue is square. Every member of
the constitutional convention must show
his hand. It is of little Importance from
what district the president of that body
shall be chosen; or whether he be law
yer business man or farmer. Is he
loyal republican? That is the test
a good, true republican who will be fair
and just to all interests.

The Aberdeen News protests that it
was not making any fling at Treasurer
Bailey when it referred TO certain terri

It was simply trying TO find out whether
or not Treasurer Bailey knew that Drake
was attempting to control the deposit Of
those funds in order that he might make
a loan. The News urges that Aberdeen
banking houses should, and can stand
on theirl own record. According to the

Gov. ORDwAY having satisfied the
Fargo Republican that he is and has

Dakota, that paper takes back what it
has said heretofore on the subject.
Judge Garland and Attorney Hollembaek
each gave extended opinions on this mat
ter prior to the May election, but Gov.
Ordway was not challenged and therefore
did not need to show them. The Repub-
lican publishes these opinions.

"OK1AHoMA has faded away as the
land of promise and its place is taken by
Dakota" writes Editor Carle to the
Pioneer Press. What is true of Okla.
homa is also true of the other regions
open for settlement in the United States.
Washington territory, now that it's true
status has been determined by thousands
who have focked to the Pacific slope
during the past three years, has lost it's
charm for the settler and even now the
tide of immigration from the west has set
in and it meets that from the east on
Dakota's virgin soil and in Montana's
beautiful valleys. Texas land is sold by
the government for IS an acre. Kansas is
settled. The Cherokee country is not
and will not be available for some time.
The good vacant land in the southwest is
nearly all gone. Fyen the Sioux reserva-
tion is not yet opened in southwestern
Dakota and when it is the terms offered
to settlers are not entirelj satisfactory.
The only large tract of land left, in
short, the last of the public domain
is the great Bismarck and a portion of
the Devils Lake land districts. Take
your map and see what an empire west
ern Dakota comprises. Visit this region
now and see what beautiful prairies,
what stock ranges and fat stock, what
thrifty fields Of grain, corn and other
crops are now growing, the millions of
acres of coal lands furnishing fuel with
out cost to the settler. Northwestern
Dakota defes the world and challenges
inspection.
