McGilfivray on Horses, War and Capital
Removal.

Removal.
In the St. Paul Pioneer Press of Mon.
day, Senator McGillivray is quoted as
follows:
There are grand good times ahead for
the horse business in the West" said
A. c. McGillivray of Dickinson, N. D.,
at the Merchants last evening, land the
men who have survived the hard times
are going to reap a harvest"
~ have about 600 horses and colts on
the range at present." he continued, land
| calculate that l am going to make a
dollar or two the next two or three years.
| shall take a string of about 600 into the
Red River valley this spring and try to
do some business with the farmers
there"
"Will the state capital be removed at
the next session of the legislature?"
at is hard to say at this time. Efforts
have been made at several sessions, but
with no effect. There is sure to be a big.
ger effort made the ext time than ever
before, however, and the fight is going to
be a hot one without a doubt. As to the
outcome, l think Bismarck will win out
again."
"The war party is whooping it up in
gallant style all over the state; and as
for the cowboys, why they are just wild
to get into the fray. They would make
fine cavalrymen too. They are experts
with the rifle, the best riders on earth.
In the event of trouble l am in hopes the
boys will be given a chance to show their
mettle. l am much pleased with Presi.
dent McKinley's course thus far. 1t
seems to me he has shown rare judgment
and discretion and l see no reason to
take the matter out of his hands at the
present time"
