that the advocates of Cavalier had made
up their minds to control the convention,

When it became evident to the delegates

TWISTING FIGURES.

The Chronicle this week presents a
long row of figures which makes us
think of the song the boys used to sing in
the old days when driving home from our
neighbor city after some festive occasion,
when the air would ring with the refrain:
"From Henderson to Embina
its only three miles,"
"From Embina to Pemberson
tits only three miles,"
And so on ad libitum.
Editor Fairchild misses the point Of
discussion, Intentionally or accidentally.
If the Chronicle wants us to admit that
Cavalier is nearer the center of the coun-
|ty than Pembina, we will admit it and
save his mathematical calculations. The
real point is as follows, as stated this
week in the Chronicle and reiterated in
similar form each week previous since
the prospectus" ~
Cavalier is the one and only and
honest central location for the county
seat of Pembina county from every right
full point the question, can be considered.
This fact is indisputable."
Last week we showed by an itemized
vote that on the east side of Cavalier
there were 2,077 votes and on the west
side 1,439 votes. This the Chronicle
calls twisting" and prejudice" and
then goes to work and figures in precise
ly the same manner to prove, that the
main line of the G. N. is not the center
of population, by saying that there are
!, s49 votes east and 2,257 west of that
road. AS the figures we're not itemized
we do not know just how they were got
ten; but suppose them to be correct, do
they prove Cavalier as the only central
point? Or, taking our figures in connec-
ton is it not certainly proven that the
center Of population is nearly midway
between Cavalier and the towns on the
G. NJ? Now, as nobody wants the court
house out on the prairie, the question be-
comes, which is the most central and
convenient of access to the most people.
The towns on the Great Northern are
both geographic ally and as to population
approximately as central, and when rail-
road facilities are considered, are far
more convenient than Cavalier. AS to
the figures given, as to votes within l6
miles and IL miles of Cavalier, and dis
tanceS to be travelled. thew will annlv
just as we'll to Hamilton, Glasston or
Bathgate without much change, and to
st. Thomas or Neche with but little diff.
ference to the bulk of the population.
The fact is when the Chronicle repeats
and reiterates the word "only'' in refer
ence to central location, either geograph-
ical or as Ito population-it is-''preju-
diced"

SOMEWHAT PERSONAL.

From perusal OF the PIONEER Elk.
PRFaS it would appear that our friend
and co-laborer in the vineyard Of public
timent-Frank A. Wardwell-was in
favor of war, "grim-visaged war; One
OF conquest and determination. OF
course, we who were babes in arms dur
ing the "late unpleasantness" have nc
right to suggest that those 'who fought,
bled and (all but) died" for their country,
as did Bro Wardwell, are now to old to
mount barDed steeds," yet we are o1
the opinion that war in 1893, even with
such rotten monarchy as Spain, would
be no pleasant pastime. If war must
come, either as result of the destruc.
truction of the Maine, or to give the boon
OF freedom to the oppressed of Cuba,
none should shrink the duty of citizen.
ship, but we of the Times are willing to
admit that the occupation of stopping
bullets at thirteen dollars per month
holds no charms for us. If there is an
honorable way out of the difficulty, we
hope the blood and treasure of this fair
land may be saved.-St. Thomas Times.
In reference to Col. Hager's editorial,
as we are member of the Grand Army
of the Republic and as we take an ac.
tive interest in that organization, and in
the welfare of all old soldiers; and, as we
at times write about them, we ask our
readers to bear with us in little person.
al explanation.
F. A. Wardwell never, fought, bled or
(ali but) died" for his country. As a mem.
Der of the G. A. R. he stands, as regards
merit in this direction, as very humble
private of the rear rank. Allhe has to
be proud of in this matter is, that by vol
unteering and enlisting as ali ''ordinary
seaman" in the U. S. Navy on Decem-
Der End, 1854, he showed his willingness
to obey orders, and if need be stop bull
lets" in defence Of the flag. Never hav-
ing had the experience, he does not know
whether he would have been scared, or
brave. or both, if occasion had arisen.
The only battles he ever saw we're by
the Spaniards against the Chileans and
Peruvians in 1866, an the only time he
ever came near being engaged in fight
was that time against the Spaniards in the
harbor of Valparaiso; and possibly the
disgust and dislike engendered by the
near approach Of a probable naval bat
tie. with them, still fingers to some ex-
tent. This explanation is made SO that
our readers will understand, that when
we write, or speak, or act for the old
soldiers and sailors, that the editorial

tent explained.
We think that Col. Hager, who has
himself been the swearer OF uniform as
a member Of the governors staff, and
who We believe, is the son Of a veteran
Of the civil war, was in jest in his state
ment that the old soldiers are too old to-
