hand. Man alone OF ell created beings
is out of harmony with God. This want
OF harmony is shown by the unrest OF
the sonl-the sense of guilt-the sorrow
that abounds on every side also by woe
suffering and death.
How Gan we approach GodP We need
a mediator. We fail when we try to
comfort others, our words fell short.
When we attempt to pray for others we
must first pray for ourselves. There is
one Mediator, the man Christ Jesus. He
is willing, He is fitted to undertake the
task, He is successful, trust Him.
In the evening q full house greeted
Prof. Cornwall, the state temperance
lecturer of the prohibition association.
He took for his subject the license grant
ed to Haman by Kirg A~hasuerus, to
murder, to kill, to rob and destroy all
Jews ior ten thousand talents OF silver,
and sold that the friends OF so.called high
license ought to be ashamed OF their
talk about $1,000 being high, in view OF
what this man paid-at least q million
dollars in greenbacks. He traced the
analogy between this license and the
license to sell Intoxicating liquors, in
that it was granted by the government.
Ii was to murder men, ONE and chill
Grep. 1t was to rob and the money to
be paid into the kings treasury wss to
be plupdered from those who we're to be
killed, just as license money 10 to-day.
The speaker held his audience deeply
interested during the entire discourse.
and they were unanimous in the opinion
that no better temperance discourse has
ever been delivered in Ysnkton. Prof
Cornwall ID q pleasant, earnest speaker,
and without vindictiveness presents the
prohibition side of the case . in a most
convincing manner.

An Omnibus R,ri Relic

Washington, d. O., Feb. 22.-The bill
admitting the two Dakotas, Montana
and Washington territory, was to day
made Law. a few minutes before IL
o'clock this morning, President Cleve-
land attached his autograph to the
famous bill, and ended the great strue-
gle which has been occupying the atten-
ton of congress for the past four years.
Mr.. Cleveland signed the bill in a much
holder hand than he usually writes, and
those who are familiar with his signature
have often remarked that his handwrit-
ing was very small when compared with
his physical stature. The bill was
signed With q quill pen, the quill having
been plucked from the wing of an eagle
killed in North Dakota. The quill was
sent him q few days ago by Q gentleman
living in that section Of the territory,
with the request that; il possible. he
would use this quill for the first time in
attaching his signature TO the territorial
bill. This request the president COM
piled with and In turn sent the Quill
TO day to Delegate Clifford, making h,m
q present of it, which was accompanied
by q very pleasant little note from the
president, Saying that it n historical
value could be addad to the instrument,
be Yves glad to give M.. Oxford the
benefit of it. Mr.. Clifford of course ac-
cepted the quill. and sent the president
q polite note in reply. thanking him for
his thoughtfulness. Mr.. Clifford said to.
night to the Tribune correspondent that
he would take the quill home with him
and present it to one or the other Of the
historical societies OF the two states, but
it is not decided which OF the states shall
have it. He thinks. however. that the
best way to determine the question will
be that tte first governors OF the ,wc
states, after their election, shall drew
lots for IL MI. Clifford, being a reside nj
Of South Dakota, would naturally prefer
to- give il 10 his own state. but as the
quill came from North Dskote, he thinks
shat perhaps it would be bat fair that
the quill should be returned to that
commonwealth. He has already tied
s'bont Al the ribbons OF red. white and
blue.

CHANDLER ASSAULTED.

senator Blackburn Shakes up the New
Hampshire senator.
Washington special, %: a personal
encounter took place in the senate com
mitsee on railroads late this afternoon,
which two very eminent statesmen now
regret. Not since Preston Brooks as.
saulted Charles Sumner has there been q
personal alteration between two United
States senators involving sectional Diff
ferences. A long period OF unbToken
peace was broken this afternoon when
Senators Blackburn and Chandler, after
a sharp interchange of couftesies that
are not courteous, Rrappled with each
other and proceeded to settle their diff
ferences by the modern a%rbitrament of
personal prowesa. Chandler ia q special.
list on southern outreges, but az long as
he confined himself to malignancy TO.
ward the south at long range through the
pages of the Congressional Record no
one objected. To-day, in the room OF
the committee on railroads, whore was
being held o session of the special
committee on Indian post traders, in the
presence OF Faulkner, Oullom and Plstt,
Chandler and Blackburn go. into o
heated discussion about the report ON
poet. tradershIps. Blackburn wanted
Chandler to give the nsmes Of witnesses
upon whose testimony the report was
based. Chandler refused. jumped to his
feet and said: "I'll not be bulldozed BY
any slave drivers like you"
The Kentuckian walked around 10
where the little fre-eater was sitting,
and shook his fist in Chandler's face,
"You ID little scoundrei end liar,
il you we're not q coward I would hsil
you. II you dare to rise I will whip you
right here"
Chandler shrank in his clothes and
said:
"You dare not strike me-"
"Dare NOT, chi" and the burly Ken
tuckian took him by the coat c"Ilar and
jerked him ont of his chair, throwipg
him against the wall with D force so yio-
lent that the New Hampshire senator
was stunned for the next few minutes
and was comparatively s%peechlefs.

HOW ABOUT MaTHEWS7

WAL the Politicians Succeed fn Down
ing h Delegate. Eject.
Sioux Falls, Oak, Feb. 2I-The
Mandsn Pioneer reports that q South
Dakota politician from Aurora county
was In that office not long ago. and in
answer to o question as to what would
become of Mathews after admission, re-
piled that ave will deal with him all
right, and we Will see that he don't get
o thing" This is to be the treatment of
Mathews Tor his voting at WATERFOWL,
There hes been some whispering on the
quiet that Mathews must be laid ont
cold, bus this is the first mention which
has found its way into print. The ex-
treme south Dakota men 5eem TO be
planning TO get even with she delegates
elect for winning q hard fought battle
ct WatertoWn. A number of politicians
may have decided upon this course, but
it 10 fer from likely that the people
Will give their assent to il.
Mathews is entitled to q eest in o
gress and there ia little reasonable doubt
that he will get it. AS delegate his term
OF office apd salary will begin on March
X Ao wap okootou iOf Two years ana II
he should be again elected he would
then simply serve as congressman the
term for which he was chosen delegate.
The above expression purports to
come from q friend of Delegate Clifford.
but it is doubtful If Judge Clifford would
give his assent TO it. He is an honorable
gentleman and loves tair piay. His own
county and those nearest his home gave
Mathews the strongest support that the
ticket received, and this fact did not es-
cape the attention OF Mathews. In talk
ing with o gentleman about this fact,
the delegate.elect declared that, so far
Rs he had any Influence with the
administration, Judge Giferd's friends
should not be overlooked. 1t lie safe to
say that il the rank and file OF the PEG.
pie discover any attempt ON the part Of
the politicians to ''sit on" Mathews they
will proceed to ''sit on" the politicians"
Besides, the boys in the southeast corner
must remember that South Dakota is
likely TO be divided into four geographi.
cal sections, VIZ: The south, central,
north and the Black Hills sections. and
that 1t will be as easy for Mathews
friends to combine against others as for
the rest TO combine against him. II is
safe to say that George A Mathews will
be one Of the first congressman from
South Dakota, and those who are thus
planning TO defeat him are simply paw
ing he way for defeat for themselves.

DAKOTA COMBINATIONS

There is q suspicion OF buncombe in
the passage OF Q prohibition bill by the
present legislature, to take effect on the
lss of January, 1890.
The artesian we'll at Hamilton is pro-
crossing, some 900 feet Of granite having
been bored in five weeks. The we'll is
down l 200 feet now. The county con-
m%issioners invested $4,000 recently in
the work.
The Glendale tin mining company
with headquarters in Chicago, is de-
v%eloping its properties in Pennington
county. Ten tons OF tin stone were sent
to the mines for q test. RI the result is
satisfactory the company will erect q
mill.
Rumor says that w. j. Murphy, the
late proprietor OF the Grand Forks,
Piaindesler, will again be at the
helm of q Grand Forks daily. 1t is said
that pressure has been brought to bear
upon Mr. Murphy to induce him to start
q new daily.
The exoitement an relation to the
scarlet fever continues at Bismarck and
the churches and schools have all been
closed. AS q matter OF fact there have
been but three deaths, and but five cases
are known to the city authorities. but
precautions are being taken because of
the general alarm.
Sheriff Smith, of StutsmRn county,
Dak., arrived in Helena last week with
a requisition from Gov. Church for Ed
ward Callahan, unde. arrest at Glendive,
an escaped prisoner. The governor
made out the necessary instrument and
the sheriff returned to Glendive for his
prisoner.
Farmers in Potter county are pretty
we'll prepared for spring work. They
have taken advantage of the pleasant
winter to clean up their seei ard get
their implements in repair. From core.
full estimates, made from statements oil
men ! n the various parts OF the country,
the acreage OF wheat will be fully double
that OF last year.
The diphsherla scare that prevailed OF
Grand Forks for some time has now en-
tirely subsidized. The cases Of the n
yersity have all been cured and the task
of thoroughly disinfecting the building
is under way. Bad drainage is charged
with having been q factor in developing
the cases at this institution. This has
been iemedied by plumbers. II is ex-
peeted that classes will be resumed agar
In a few days.
There will be no war between citizens
and half breeds In Rolette county. Ths
entire matter OF taxing the half-breedl
has been submitted to the government
end both parties seem inclined TO- abid,
the decision. The breeds who over
powered the sheriff and took from him
their property. which had been attached
for taxes, are still ct large, and warrants
sworn out for them hive not beer
served.
