The action of the sub-alliances of
Kansas in repudiating the action of the
Cincinnati convention is quite significant
in these days of troubled craftsmanship.
If any state in the union should be ripe
to swallow the dose labeled "People's
Party" that one without question in
Kansas. Having but a few months ago
waged a bitter and successful conflict
with the old time political leaders and
routing them horse and foot, seeing their
chosen farmer United States senator
made chairman Of the Cincinnati con-
vention, it is all the more wonderful that
they did not drink down the resolutions
prepared by Donnelly and call it good.
The spurning of the wild and chimerical
propositions advanced under the guise
of peoples Party" is a cheering sign to
those who believe in true reform. It
shows that the yeomanry of Kansas
are not to be hoodwinked into
carrying out all the ideas self-appointed
crank leaders may advance; that they
know defeat is sure to those who attempt
to make the millennium approach at once.
Will the other states dare to take the
same righteous stand in the question?

BISMARCK WEEKLY TRIBUNE: FRIDAY. JUNE Ia 1891.

perience Of a similar duty-the New Or
leans exhibit. With the general man.
ager will very largely rest the success or
failure of North Dakota to hold ito DO
sition at Chicago among the states of the
union. The TRIBUNE believes, and the
statement will be supported by all-save
and except, possibly, a few who will
never see any good outside of their own
persons-that Tor practical, business-like
results Mr.. Mckenzie will bring as much
out of the exhibit as any citizen who
could be named. There should be no
personal strife in this fair business. The
money appropriated by the state comes
from all taxpayers alike and the only
object to look to is the advancement of
the material interests of North Dakota.
The S25,OOO should be spent in a way as
to recognize "no North, no South" but
North Dakota as a whole. The TRIBUNE
believes a pusher, a man of energy, a
person who will make North Dakota
known as it was known before,
has been selected in the person Of Alex
ander Mckenzie.

The Albany Law journal is the rank
ing: legal publication in the United
States and it's editorial utterances have
as much weight among the members of
the profession at large as a number of
the courts themselves. In a recent
number they refer to the case of Ell VS..
the Northern Pacific railroad company,
decided by the supreme court of North
Dakota in May. The question in issue
was the liability of the corporations to
pay their employees damages for injuries
sustained in certain lines of employ
ment. The question is conceded to be
n of the most perplexing and difficult
of solution in the books and the ablest
jurists of the country are not united in
the true rule to be applied. After quot
ing the syllabus prepared by the entire
court and commenting favorably there
on, speaking of the opinion written by
Chief Justice Corliss the journal says:
"We think Chief Justice Corliss' argu-
ment irrefragable, and we also think it is
the ablest treatment of the point to be
found in the books"

ONO has had a harmonious republican
convention and William Mckinley, auth
or of the tariff bill, has been nominated
for the high Office of governor. The
by reclamation and the
characterizing this selection
prevailed throughout the proceedings
and every candidate for a state office
was nominated on the first ballot. A
crisis is at hand for the republican party
IN the Buckeye state, and the progress of
the campaign and the result of this falls
election will be watched with interest by
the whole nation. Flushed with the
victory of last years congressional cleo
tions the democrats will force the tariff
in every township and, smart
ing under defeat and conscious of the
misrepresentation of the Mckinley bill
at that time by the enemies of protection,
the republicans will meet the issue glee-
fully and, so far as Ohio Is concerned, at
least, the tariff question will be emphat-
ically decided. There is a settled feeling
in Ohio INDUCED in equally by both
parties that as the state goes this fall so
it will go in '92, and this feeling will
stimulate the combat and make it decid-
eddy interesting as we'll as instructive.

The New Rockford Transcript, in
speaking of the recent visit of the rail-
road commissioners, Y "The COM
plants against the Northern Pacific rail-
ways manner of doing business were
compliments. The only changes or i'm
provements desired by our people we're
that we have an exclusive passenger
train making the round trip of the line
in a day, and a freight up one day and
down the next. Also, that a shipping
platform be erected by the company or a
lease granted that will enable the farm
ers to erect a platform at some conve-
nient location at the track. In speaking
of cars for the farmers to ship in, Major
Culver said: I shipped six carloads of
wheat last year and made 500 on each
car over the elevator prices. Never
asked for cars of the Northern Pacific
but I got them just when I wanted
them.' The testimony of others was to
the same effect and the commissioners
were pleased at the general feeling of
satisfaction" ~

The following extract from the L,vo-
mia, N. Y, Gazette is sent in by Nj. o. F..
Davis, an old Dakotan. It accounts for
the throngs at the Bismarck land office
and refers to the Berthold lands. The
paper says: "By proclamation of Presi-
dent Harrison, the great reserve of over
100000 acres of land in North Dakota
has at last been opened to settlement,
under the provisions of the homestead
law. For months past, thousands of pi-
oneers have been encamped near the re-
serve, awaiting this opening and ready to
take possession of every acre of the tim
bered land. Thousands of men have
stood in line, week after week, zeal the
land offices, anxious to secure homesteads,
to begin the work Of clearing, to raise shan
ties and to take hold of the other work of
life."

The official returns of the recent sales
of school lands in the state have been
made to the board of university and
school lands and makes interesting
reading matter to any person DESTROYS of
knowing the exact value actual farmers
of North Dakota are willing to ply for
land. We have it here in cold, hard
cash the results of one series of sales.
There is no boom literature in
this, no inflated and fictitious
prices. It is the judgment of
actual tillers of the soil what it is worth
for practical use. Just think of an aver
age price of 1881 per acre for land
that the adjoining residents secured
from the government for nothing. The
following is a tabulated resume of the
sales:

ACCORDING to Henry Clews' Financial
Review of last week the condition of
spring wheat is 92.6 and winter wheat
$3.50, and "to more fairly understand the
effect of good crops upon business and
railroad interests" says the Review, at
should be remembered that at present
we are suffering from the short crops of
1890. In spite of this drawback, the de-
clines in earnings are small and many
roads show unexpected gains, when the
unfavorable conditions are taken into
consideration. Money continues easy
and promises to so continue until the
crop movement"

THE report comes that some of the
stockmen of Emmons county will institute
damage suits against E. Ashley Mears'
sheep company. They claim financial
loss by reason of scabby animals being
delivered to them under a warranty to be
free from fault. One of the st. Paul ag-
rlcultural journals also intimates that
the best stock is not always purchased
by Mr.. Mears. It is hoped that the
charges now being made are not capable
of ~verification. 1t is a duty the company
owes itself to refute the accusation.

CHARLES BATES, of Yanktou, who has
the contract for surveying and working
the boundary between the two Dakotas,
states that there will be 725 monuments
placed half a mile apart, each seven feet
long, and weighing 900 pounds each.
The survey will begin at once, and the
work of construction will commence as
soon as possible. The stone will have to
be distributed by wagons, each carrying
four monuments where there are high
ways, and three where there are none.
The pillars are set three and one-half
feet in the ground, leaving three and
one-half feet above the surface. Mr..
Bates has been surveying in Dakota for
% years, and is recognized as one of
the most capable engineers in the north
vest.

A RECENT cable dispatch states that
the price of wheat is on the up grade in
Germany, which goes to show that that
country will very O have a heavy ex.
port demand for this country's cereals.
New York papers report an unusual
activity in chartering boats for grain
cargoes. This indicates a bullish tend
ency in the wheat market the coming
summer and those North Dakotans who
have grain in hand or are long on the
market will doubtless reap their reward
in golden coin.

dial in a small volume, which he proposes
to bring out at an early date. In his
book he will deal particularly with what
he has termed the ~"rascality" of Lycett
Green; the manner in which the Prince
of Wales keeps secrets; his candid opin-
ion of the hostess of Tranby Croft; the
true and only reason why he was called

of the lands, whether mineral or non
mineral, is to be determined under the

The following is the experience of
Eddy county and the same facts will
doubtless apply in other places. Says
the Transcript: $50 far us it's action in
this county is concerned, the grand jury
system has proven itself a fraud of the
most pronounced type. The petition for
the grand jury was obtained to secure
certain indictments, and it did it's work,
but when the evidence came before the
court the defendant was exonerated in
twenty minutes after the judges charge
had been completed in the one case, and
in the other the charges of grand larceny
found by the'grand jury we're pronounced
by the states attorney to be insufficient
to secure a conviction, the case was dis
missed, and the defendant discharged
without trial. The experience cost the
county about $500, but may be worth all
it cost'as a encouragement to the unjust
and I'M American system.

The attention of those interested is
called to the fact that in order to take
advantage of the law of this state rela-
tive to tree oounties, which is SO per
acre, a description of the land on which
the forest culture is being made must be
filed with the auditor of the county in
which the party lives during the month
of June each and every year. Unless this
is done the state auditor has no authori-
ty TO draw a warrant on the treasury for
the money. If you wish to take advan-
tage of North Dakota's very liberal stat
ute on this subject, the details must be
strictly complied with. Do not forget
the details to be attended to this month
June.

HE Grand Forks Herald is inclined
to make a mountain out of a mole h1ll'
in the Helgesen matter, but happily for
the political peace and tranquility of
the state has succeeded only in exager-
ating the Importance of its own conclu-
sions and thereby making an ass of it,
self. There is no need of newspaper
discussion of this matter, but the Fargo
Argus and Grand Forks Plaindealer
know where the sore spots on the Herald
lie and have taken occasion to caress
them. 1t is to be regretted that the old
Miller and anti-Miller feud should be
kept up. The power behind the Miller
throne, Editor Winship, loses no oppor-
tunity to criticise Governor Burke, who,
so far as can be observed, is simply full
filling the promises of his inaugural-to
see that the laws are enforced. The
office of the commissioner of agriculture
and labor belongs at the capitol. 1t is
SO stipulated in the constitution. An
office was prepared for the commissioner,
as the law provides, and Mr.. HeIgesen
agreed and was expected to occupy it
May lst, last. He should have occupied
it ever since statehood, but he has not.
For the ~disobediance of law in the past
Ex-Governor Miller and Mr.. Helgesen
have to account-not Governor Burke.
ALI that Governor Burke desires
is that Commissioner Helgesen shall
obey the law and-keep his word
with him. But the trouble between
the governor and the commissioner
is not at all serious. The trouble
about Deputy Scott is also simple. The
governor approves the clerk hire of the
commissioner, and as the ofice-at the
capitol-was vacant it was deemed ad-
visable-and the encouragement so ad-
vlsed-to withhold further executive ap-
proval OF clerk hire until explanations
we're had and the law complied with. An
interview was had, some misrepresenta-
tons regarding Mr.. Helgesen's deputy
cleared away and all differences adjust
ed. The commissioner has again agreed
to keep the office where it belongs, and
Mr.. Scott-who is a quiet, unassuming
sort of a fellow and vouched for as being
thoroughly competent-will continue as
deputy and the administration will con-
tinue on all right in the eyes of all ex-
cept those political dynamiters who are
bound not to be satisfied with the ad-
ministration anyhow and who will con-
tinue to grasp every opportunity to en-
courage strife and excite sectional, a
and factional prejudice. The people and
the press of this state ought to be fair
and just in their criticism of the admin
istration, and certainly Governor Burke's
%disapproval of MI. Helgesen's procrasti-
nation in obeying the constitution ought
not receive unfavorable consideration.
