NEVER in the history of North Dakota
as a state or territory has there been a
contest in the organization of the two
branches of the legislature so tame and
devoid of sensational details as that
eliminating yesterday. So far as surface
indications show, it was a victory for the
farmers and prohibition element Of both
~Darties.

Guand Forks Senatorial Candidate.

Public Examiner Hayden in Fargo Ar
gus: I heard President Sprague's lecture
last evening, and, of course, was highly
entertained. He certainly has one of the
most wonderful memories that I ever
heard Of. In the course of his public ad-
dresses he quotes page after page from
Milton, Shakespeare and other authors,
and l believe he knows them all by heart.
Mayville Tribune: w. J.. Clapp, the out
going state superintendent Of public
instruction, has made a most efficient and
model officer, always prompt, always busy,
always courteous and 5oobliging.l Since
assuming the duties of the office, after the
death of Judge Mitchell, his task has been
an afduous one, owing to the immense
amount of work imposed by the new
school law, yet through all he has shown
marked executive and administrative abiI-
ity, and the whole fraternity Of teachers
and superintendents have none but the
best of wishes for him and his future
career.

The supreme court commissioner
were established ss an auxiliary court
to the highest state tribunal. The OBJ.
ject of itsinstitution was to relieve the
supreme court of its congested calendar,
which it was impossible for a single
court to clear. The decisions Of the
auxiliary tribunal are accepted by the
ultimate court aud stand as the finality
of state litigation. Hence the import
ance that the commissioners should be
men of the highest character, and the
most profound legal erudition. Judge
Fitzgerald will give added prestige to q
tribunal that already enjoys the conf
dence and the respect of the bar and the
people. What we like about Judge
Fitzgerald is that whilst he is strong
Republican, yet he is not a hide-bound
partisan, but a liberal, brave and whole
souled citizen.

WHILST we might not have selected
Mr.. Walter S. Maxwell as chief of the
horticultural department at the Worlds
Fair, it would not be for lack of his bust
ness capacity, but on account OF his pau.
city OF practical acquaintance with the
great industry he would be called upon
to represent. On the other hand, per-
hapsit would be difficult to find man
who possesses i'll an eminent degree all
the qualifications for this important
post, yet we believe that one who has
good business and administrative quail.
ficatious will give more satisfaction in
the position than one who knows all
about horticulture and has but little ex.
perience in business. There is, however
another reason why this section of the
state should favor the appointment oi
Mr.. Maxwell. He is Southern Cali
fornian, and unless he is selected by Mr..
Davis, the superintendent OF the Worlds
Fair, the appointment will be given to
some other state. Mr.. Maxwell, how
ever, has fine substratum of expert
ence upon which to build avery respect
able superstructure of horticultural
knowledge. He was brought up from
early boyhood on farm, is the son of a
successful orchardist, has always lived
in this section OF California and has had
more or less to do in a business way
with the staple products of our county.
He is bright enough to master all the
technical requirements of the position if
he should be selected, and with his busi-
ness aptitudes he would go to Chicago
with qualifications that would enable
him to make his department as success
full as any other in the exhibition.

JIM McCuE, who can outtalk any man
in the state and give him solid non
pareil column as starter, has come to
the fore in the state board of trade,
San Francisco. Mr.. w. II. Mills, who
recently visited Los Angeles, had just
made one of his characteristic neat
speeches, and closed with a glowing
eulogy of Southern California and her
matchless soil resources, when the loud
mouthed Jim Clipped in with the start
ling announcement that "there is not a
farmer in Southern California who can
pay my whlskey bill out Of the profits Of
his ranch" The whole coast knows
Jim's capacity to stow away bug-juice,
and that it would require very hand
some income to keep him supplied with
his daily fluid so that from his stand
point, even, the remark is rather fiat
tering to the financial condition of our
farmers.

Stalked by a Panther.

Ralph Flynn, rancher living at
Wayne, on the Seattle. Lake Shore and
Eastern railway, has had dangerous
encounter with panther and narrowly
escaped the claws of the beast.
Flynn started hunting early one morn.
ing, taking with him Winchester rifle
Of the latest patent, which he had Just
bought and had not learned to handle
with skill. He was looking principally
for deer, and had gone about five miles
through deep thicket when he came
suddenly upon the partially devoured
carcass of sheep. which had evidently
fallen prey to a panther. Remember
ing reports of sheep having been killed
by wild animals in his neighborhood,
Flynn hastened on, nerving himself for
a tussle with a cougar or some equally
fierce beast. With the assurance that
his gun was prepared he cautiously eyed
every nook as he passed, occasionally
seeing fresh tracks of varmints.
Flynn travelled on about two miles in
this manner without success, and gave
up the chase on that line. He had just
turned to retrace his steps when his eye
caught what seemed to be dogs head
peering at him over log. A second
look proved to Flynn that it was a
panther instead of a dog. Taking de-
liberate aim, Flynn rested his rifle
against tree and fired at the animals
head. The ball only stunned the brute,
which, with a crazy leap, made toward
Flynn. The latter's delay in reloading
on account of the new patent nearly
proved fatal to himself, as the panther
was within twenty feet of him when he
shot it dead between the eyes. The
brute was between Flynn and the sleeps
carcass, and had followed him by its
keen scent for two miles.
1t measured nine feet from tip to tip,
and its hide is now trophy highly
priced by Flynn Post-Intelli-
gencer.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20. 1891.

The unconscionable official tax-eaters
have ready champion in our esteemed
evening contemporary. The people,
however, whose pockets are taxed to
pay for exorbitant official salaries, for
the maintenance OF useless Offices, for
defectively constructed sewers, for a
costly city hall, the foundations of which
cannot support the superintendent
weight, and for all the waste and ex-
travagance of the worst city government
Los Angeles ever had, will hardly agree
with our able contemporary that all
these serious facts are to be treated as
mere "leather and prunella.''
Los Angeles herald., 1891-02-20
THE Express two days ago gave tn G

THE Express two days ago gave tn e
definition of the word "gerrymander"
as meaning partisan and unjust ap-
portionment of the subdivisions OF a
state by the party to which the one
using the word does not belong. The
definition is witty, and Justly applies to
the Republican attacks upon the con-
gressional district apportionment OF
1883. But it does not need to be Dem
ocrat to apply the term "gerrymander"
to the infamous VOORHEES, bill. Any fair
Republican who examines its provisions
will pronounce it the worst kind of a
t'gerrymander." On this subject we
quote from an article in Wednesday IS
Examiner, as follows:
Senator VOORHEES, has the effrontery
to assert that "there is no objection to
the grouping OF countless" so far as he
has heard, in his congressional gerry
mander, and that $50 far as the popula-
tion is concerned this bill is drawn as
well as any one can be-
Ii there is anything worse than ras-
cality it is hypocrisy. There is some
thing to respect in the sturdy partisan
who openly announces, as ingalls, did,
that politics is war and that he is after
everything in sight, but the one who
opens the practice of larceny with prayer
is the one to look out for. The national
congress, which is about as partisan a
body as can be found in Sabbath days
journey, has passed an eminently fair
apportionment bill-as fair, that is to
say. as could be based on Porter's CEN
sus-and we are glad to bear witness to
the fact. The California legislature
would do we'll to profit by it's example.
The anti-gerrymander bill which the
Republican leaders of the house thought
of passing last summer to check the
operations of the Democratic statesmen
OF the VOORHEES, kind in Ohio, provided
that no district in any state should ex-
ceed any other in the came state in pop
ulation by more than 10, 000inhabitants
Under the VOORHEES, arrangement the
Sixth district of California will exceed
the Third by nearly 10000, and the
Fourth, Fifth and Sixth combined will
exceed the First, Third and Seventh by
over 10000. So much for the claim that
Los Angeles herald., 1891-02-20

The opponents of the bill for the free
coinage Of silver claim that the law now
in force is adding $5,000,000 month OF
silver coin to our circulation. and that
this is sufficient to meet all the needs of
the country. But how groundless the
claim! The retirement of national bank
notes curtails the circulating medium by
nearly $25 100000 year. Subtracting
that sum from the additions being made
by the coinage of 100000, 900 a year OF
silver, leaves only $4,000, 900 as the net
increase to our currency. The increase
in population is about three million a
year, and this increase in our active
money is therefore only $12 per capita of
the increase of the population. The adj
vocates of free coinage must not let the
fact be forgotten that what the
country now needs, and needs as a
hungry man needs food, is about twice
as much money as there now is in circu-
lation. But next year the redemption
OF the 100000 OF Az per cent. bonds
to mature, will contract the national
bank circulation to greater extent than
the average. The whole business in
volved in this opposition to the coinage
of silver is simply to keep the volume OF
money at a low ebb, thus maintain
ing the rates of interest and power of
capitalists over the industries of the
country where they now are. That is the
true animus of this fight against silver.
It is the fight of the rich against the
poor; OF wrong against right; OF injustice
against Justice.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-02-20

In COMMON with all our people OF both

Changes of Climate

Kill more people than is generally known. Par
ticularly is THE the case in instances where the
constitution Is delicate, and among our immi-
grant population seeking new homes in those
portions of the West, and where malarial and
typhoid fevers prevail at certain seasons of the
year. The best preparative for a change of
necessitafes, is Hostetter's stomah Bitters,
which not only fortifes the system against
ma alaria, variable temperature, damp and de-
bilta.ing effects of tropical heat, but Is also the
leading remedy for constipation, dyspepsia,
liver complaint. bodily troubles specially apt
to attack emigrants and visitors to regions near
the equator, mariners and tourists. Whether
used as q safeguard by sea voyagers, travellers
by land, miners, or of agriculturists in newly
populated districts, this fine specific has ELECTED
the most favorable testimony. ..,

IT is difficult to say what ought to be
done to relieve the closing years of Don
Pho Pico, the last Mexican governor of
California, from the pressure of actual
want. Some of his friends suggest that
the legislature ought to vote him pen
sion. But that is difficult matter to
accomplish, even if there were not con-
stitutional objections. At any rate it is
not feasible at this late stage of the ses-
sion, and perhaps before another legis-
lature meets, two years hence, the very
aged gentleman will be beyond the
reach OF human help. 1t is very true
that Governor Pico might have been the
richest man in California, that his acres
were at one time almost illimitable, and
that he might have saved out of his i'm
mense estate an ample fortune if he had
kept out of litigation. But the fact that
he found himself confronted with new
civilization, with laws and practices he
was not familiar with and which oper-
ated to his ruin, is sufficient excuse for
his having failed to hold his own in his
later years. He is not alone or pecu-
liar in this respect. Some of the bright
est and sharpest OF the pioneer Ameri-
cans have come to grief as well as he.
Governor Pico is now 81 years old. At
that age there is nothing left but to
quietly await the end. 1t is due to our
people that this historical figure, SO init
mately and spicuously connected with
the ante-American annals of our state,
and particularly OF this section OF it.
should not be permitted to want for any
of the necessities or even the superfu-
tiles of life for the few years he may yet
be with us. Perhaps some of our pub
lic-spirited people will suggest plan by
which the last of the Mexican COVER
nors of our state may be rescued from
the sharp sting OF dependence in his
closing years.
