WASHINGTON. June 19.-The appoint
ment of Chairman Otto Peemiller, OF
Yankton, to be United States marshal
for the district of South Dakota is a
great victory for that gentleman as wei
as deserved one. His opponents were
strong men, Keller, of Kingsbury, and
the veteran Col. Mark K. Sheafe of
WatertoNn n, both being among the most
popular Democrats in the new state.
Peemiller is resident of the ancient
capital territory, and has been worker
for many years in the cause. lie Will
enter upon his duties at once, as owing
to the death of the late Marshal Frey no
court can be held until he takes hold.
Three appointments were made In
North Dakota today and in both cases
the president made happy selections.
Ralph Hall. who becomes Indian agent
at Devils Lake. is farmer at Caring
ton and one of the most popular men in
the state. AS the law now stands the
president must detail army officers to
all Indian agencies unless he can give
good reasons for the appointment OF
civilians.
Senator Roach tried to secure the APP
pointment of
Good North DakOtans
to both Fort Berthold and Devils Lake
but only succeeded in securing the lat
ter. This was so much of victory that
he feels quite elated over it. In speak
ing of the new agent Senator Roach
10 ic nf
best men in the state, a good sound
Democrat and man whom all North
DakotanS will be glad to see him,
honored. He will make an excellent
Indian agent in every way. The other
two appointments made by the presi-
dent in North Dakota were to NIL presl-
dental postoffces, the one at Bismarck
going to |. p. Hunt. and that at Lacota
to E. L. hutchinson.
Fourth-class postoffices were filled in
South Dakota as follows today: Beres-
ford, L. L. Brady; Canastota, j. a.
Beaver; Clifton, u. NJ. Henry.
Meat Inspection Farce.
Secretary Morton is after the meat
inspection farce in earnest and is paw
ing the way for the abolishment OF the
whole business. When Jerry RuSk had
he introduced the system of meat in
spection. Since Secretary Morton has
been in charge of the bureau he has cut
the expenses of the three largest paying
centers, Chicago, Kansas City and South
Omaha, to the amount of S106,500 for
the meat inspection. He says that our
pork exports to Germany for the ten
months prior to April, Notwithstanding
the emDargO-raising talk, were less than
| for the corresponding period OF 1892.
| Said he:
Germany maintains strict inspection
| OF her own. regardless of that of this
country, and so long as this continues
| fail to see how our inspection can pos
| sibly affect the amount of our meat
exports to that country. l have already
written the German government to
| learn the full effect OF our meat in
spection upon the import trade"
| Secretary Morton thinks that the
| amount of export does not warrant the
| expense of inspection. Statistician fur
niShes figures that bear him out. The
| pork exported to Germany for ten
| months of 1892 was nearly 100000
| pounds, and to Great Britain nearly
| 14,O00, 600. In 1893 the exports were:
| Germany, 100000, and Great Britain
| about l0,000,000.
Montana Interests.
Gov. Rickard, of Montana, Is In the
| city looking after Montana's interests in
| the public land. Under the enabling
act the state was given 100000 acres
Of land. He saw Assistant Commits
sioner Bowers, and arranged to have
162.0 900 acres of this magnificent grant
| SURVEYED this year. This Is in the
| northwestern part of the state, lust
west of the Black Feet reservation, and
north of Kalispell.
| Judge Lochren announced today that
the pension examining boards in Min
nesota will be appointed just as soon
and as rapidly as the names of good
| men are sent to him.
| These men will be the best in the sew
eral localities, and it is expected that
the applications will reach the COM
missioner through the regular channels
of the party organization.
| New postoffice established: Iron
junction, st. Louis county, with Epn-
rain Trenholm as postmaster.
