The Four New States

Inc lOur Territories which Congress adj
mitted into the Union are Northern Dakota,
Southern Dakota, Washington and Mon
tana. All of them are now at work prepar
ing constitutions Probably to a large ex-
tent each of them will follow exciting models.
though Northern Dakota is talking up the
one legislative assembly idea, and may adopt
It, To the country at large the greatest in
terest in the admission of these states lies In
their effect upon national politics. Each of
the new States will have twn Senators os
course, and each of them will have one Rep
resentative, excepting Southern Dakota.
which owing to its large and growing popu
latlon, has been awarded two. Thus when
these States are fairly into the Union the
United States Senate will consist of eighty
four members instead of seyenty-six, and the
House, under the present apportionment. of
$50 members instead of 325. In view of the
closeness of both bodies at the present time
considerable interest attaches to the political
complexion Of the delegations from these
new States.
With regard TO the two Dakotas, it is practi-
cally certain that the Senators and Represen-
tatives from both of them will be Repu blican.
The Republican plurality in Northern Da-
kota in 1888 was $500, and in Southern Da-
kota 19,S00 Washington is scarcely less
doubtful. Though in 1884 it elected Demo-
cratic delegate to Congress by plurality of
LAG, two years later it chose a Republican by
2,l62 plurality, and last year this plurality
had grown to 1871. Thus the drift in
this Territory for four years past has
been steadily and rapidly Republican.

and basing a prediction on the result
OF the election for delegates to the constitu-

toward the Republicans, though not 81
strongly. In 1882 Maginnis, the Democratic
candidate for delegate in Congress wae
elected by l,4S4 votes. Two years later this
plurality was reduced to 1879. In 1886 it rose,
however, to 3,71S, but two years later it was
changed to Republican plurality of sips.
We're 1t not for the result of the election of
delegates to the constitutional convention.

kota and Washington, all the representa-
yves these States are entitled to, while in
montana their chance Of electing the whole
congressional delegation is more than even.

The Atlanta Constitution declares that "lf
Southern justice had not been outraged by
the bayonet, Mellow would have been tried
by jury of his peers" meaning of course by
white men, But there were five white men
on the jury, and every one of them voted for
acquittal Indeed the only man on the jury
who held out for any different verdict was a
negro The Constitutions attempt to cast
the odium of the acquittal on the negroes
and indirectly on the North which freed the
Negro and gave him civil rights, is misera-
BILE failure. The only effect of it is to show
that the Constitution still lives IN the dead

Harmony. As Is well known, the laws re-
lating to marriage greatly differ III the differ
ent States. A legal marriage under the laws
of one State is frequently an illegal marriage
under the laws of another. The purpose of
the book is to set forth the differences in the
laws on this subject, and the mischief they
create, and to suggest a remedy. A synop-
sis of the laws relating both to marriage and
divorce in the different States is given in th g
latter part of the book. The remedy which
the author suggests for the mischief arising
from the conflict Of statutes is constitu.
tional amendment. limiting the power OF
States, and concert of action amongst the
States themselves.
