REPUBLICAN, INJUSTICE.

Notwithstanding the fact of
of precedent, there can be found
no justification for the partisan
hostility to the admission Of the
thee territories Tow seeking state
hood at the hands of congress. 1t
is the shame of the American
government that our system is such
that political reasons alone can
prevent the rendering of justice
to any portion of our people. 1t
has long been tho habit of the
party in power to deny statehood
to territories likely to send repres-
entatives to congress adverse to it's
interests, but this is so gross an
abuse of power as to demand the
serious attention of the people of
the nation. If.there is no other
way of accomplishing the purpose,
public opinion should force coll
gress to recognition Of the prin-
ciples of justice in this regard.
There can be no question as to
the entire eligibility of Arizona,
New Mexico and the Indian terri
tory to statehood, and save perhaps
in the case of the latter is not a
single legitimate objection to be
urged against admission. The
fact that these territories would
in all probability add to the
blmetallic strength in congress is
the only excuse for the refusal to
admit them, and it is certainly
entirely unworthy of great and
broad principled government such
as that Of the United States.

If THE democrats, the populists,
and the silver republicans had not
made that agreement to act togeth-
er i'll the congressional campaign,
Representative Plowman, of Ala,
would not have been ousted out
of his seat i'll the house, by the
votes Of the republican majority
The republicans voted to give the
seat to Aldrlch, who ran as popu-
list candidate and was support
ed by the republicans, not be-
cause they thought he WAS entitled
to it, but because they thought the
case could be used to divide the
democrats and populists in some
congressional districts in which
republicans cannot possibly win if
the democratic and populists votes
are cast for a single candidate.

THE STATES WEALTH.

Resources of a strictly agricul-
tural state like North Dakota are
not limited to crops of wheat, oats,
rye barley and corn. Agricultural
resources comprise a great variety
of products, and it is only when
such resources are fairly developed
that state receives the right sort
OF interest on it's original capital.
North Dakota farmers are learn
ing this lesson rapidly. They
have made so successful and 81
profitable beginning in the live
stock industry that We may expect
to see thousands of horses. sheep,
cattle and swine in the near future
where we see hundreds now. They
are also becoming deeply interest
On in the various departments OF
dairying, from the raising of good
mixers to the establishment OF
scores of township cooperative
creameries and cheese factories.
Hereafter they will continue tc
raise wheat, ETC., but they will
raise it to feed in part to live stock
and to sell in the shape of beef,
pork, mutton, wool, butter and
cheese. Following this course, it
will be but short time before
North Dakota will be one of tue
richest agricultural states in the
Union. All kind of live stock
thrive here. The grasses are
good, the climate one of the best
and scarcity of supply and a
growingdemand are proofs against
overproduction for many years to
come. Diversifcation of this
character is in the line of economy.
1t does away with the frightful
waste of raw material. 1t covers
an overproduction of cereals into
foods for which there are sure to
be active demands. 1t enriches
the farmers soil, keeps his estate
free from mortgages, and puts
him il a position to be what he
ought to be-the mainstay of a
of a prosperous, wealth-producing
commonwealth Northwest Mag.

MEYER .NIN'D THE RATIO.
Republicans are just now extr

Republicans are just now extre-
mely exercised over what they
have all along claimed was dead
issue-the silver question.
If silver sentiment is dead, Why
don't the republicans let it rest in
peace? Why insist on raising the
ghost of an expired cause? Why
break the calm respose of the issue
which is sleeping it's last sleep.
New schemes are daily develop
ed by republican contemporaries
to unite the gold and silver demo-
crazy. The latest development of
this harmless craze is the ammo
uncement made by a Chicago gold
organ that efforts are making to
promulgate among democrats the
doctrine of free silver, diversified
of any ratio.
II is alleged that W. G. Whitney
has given his sanction to the
scheme. This is import ant, If
true. Whitney and Palmer and
Buckner would doubtless consent
to free coinage of silver at a ratio
30 to l, and all that remains to
secure complete harmony will be
to obtain to consent Of Sectary
Gage, Mark Hanna, Pierpont
Morgan and President Mckinley.
Perhaps this would not prove
such very difficult task. The
republican bosses will consent &c
any policy adopted by the demo
Gratis which will insure democratic
defeat.
However, there are 100000
free silver democrats who have
pledged themselves tofree coinage
of silver at a ratio of Is to l. Il
will be a long time before they will
give their support to a proposition
to coin silver on a gold basis.
