A SOUTH DAKOTA DREAM.

Some peculiar things come out Of
South Dakota. There is Senator
Kyle and Governor Lee and the Rus
sian cactus and other natural curiosi-
ties Of the same class. Now comes Il
story from Bonesteel to the effect that
a Snowman killed Il missing link which
he had on exhibit. and the authorities
do not know whether to try him for
cruelty to animals or for murder. the
exact status of the link asst o whether
it is human or animal not being estab-
liShed.
The story finds much prominence in
the eastern press. 1t is stated that
the missing link and the Snowman had
Il row.. probably because Of overdue
salary or something of the kind, and
the Snowman battered it's frontal bone
into its thoraX with a tent pole.
The story proves that there is an eX-
cellent string-tiend loose in South Da-
kota, and that this hot weather is pro-
ductive Of some vivid pipe-stories.

Among the resolutions passed by the
state editorial association at Grand
Forks were the following:
TO our brave brethren who are daily
risking their lives for their country in
the Philippines we extend the glad hand
of fellowship. May Gods watchful care
protect them from bullet or sickness
until their return to home and friends.
This association keenly feels the loss
of several of it's members the past year.
who have been called away to the Great
Beyond. In the death of Major J. E.
Britton of the Bottineau Courant, the
press loses one of it's oldest and best
members. He has been identified with
the association since its organization and
his absence in our ranks is felt by every
member. Especially do We sympathize
with our sister of the press, Mrs. S. E.
Bates, in the loss of her husband during
the past year. w. D. Bates was n
of the ablest newspaper men of the
state; a true and keen writer,
ever consistent in his views, he had
o a warm place in the hearts of the
newspaper men, which they will not
o forget. We congratulate his de-
voted wife, on the splendid efforts she
is putting forth to keep the News and
Times up to the standard and heartily
extend her the glad hand of welcome to
our ranks. The fraternity also loses a
promising young lar in the death of
Alex. D. Grant, late of the Grand Forks
Plaindealer. He was young in the
newspaper work of the state, but his ef-
forts which were of brief duration
among us, were worthy II highest
commentator. Editor G. A. F%airchild,
late of the Drayton Echo, is another of
our members who has passed from life
to death. His untimely end cut short a
noble life, the beginning of which bade
fair to ripen into a brilliant fullness.
These gaps in our ranks are the only
unpleasant features of such meetings as
these, but memories of them will not
soon be forgotten.

Controller Dawes has issued the report
of the condition of national banks of
North Dakota at the close of business
June 30. Compared with the previous
statement in April, the banks have in
creased their loans and discounts and
holdings of gold coin. while a ~shrinkage
is noted in the average reserve held and
in individual deposits. Loans and dis
counts have increased from S4,3a21,5 13 in
April to s4,652.070. Average reserve held
is reported at 1852 per cent, against
1886 per cent in April. Individual de-
posts have declined about S139,O00 since
April, this item now a%ggregating $4,9l9.-
673. The present holdings of gold coin
are S201 .249. which is u gain of about
5000. No change is noted in the issu-
ance OF national bank notes.

The state press, which has been agi-
tating the payment by the state Of the
fares Of the soldiers from Frisco to this
state, is beginning to see that such a
thing is inpracticable. The Tribune
would like to see everything possible
done for the boys, but as it observed
the other day, there must be reason in
the requests of those interested in the
troops, and it will not serve any good
purpose to ask impossibilities. In this
connection, the Fargo Call observes,
relative to the request that the COVER
nor use state funds to transport the
boys home, or borrow money:
The proposition cannot be complied
With on the part OF the state or the
governor from the fact that no appro-
priation was made by the last legisla-
ture for this purpose and therefore
there can be no money available. The
governor is pOwerless in the matter be-
cause the power Of appropriating state
funds is only delegated to the state leg
islature and there is absolutely no war
rant of law whereby the governor can
use the state funds except as desig-
mated by the legislature. Further, he
is powerless to use funds set aside for
a special purpose or any other purpose.
AS to the borrowing Of the amount by
his eXcellency the governor, there is
no authority given him to bind the
state or to pledge it's credit. He could
only secure the amount rs any other
citizen, by giving personal security and
it would be absurd and out Of the
question to expect such a thing,
Events have demonstrated that we
have a patriotic governor. whom
the Call can say will do all in his power
to advance the best interests of our
brave boys.

Brigham Young Roberts of Utah, who
was elected a member of the Fifty-sixth
congress in November, 1898, and about
whose eligibility for that place there has
been some discussion, appears to be a
member of congress, and if he has been
as business-like as most other members
elect, he has been. drawing his salary
since March 4, or for about four months.
A copy of the unofficial list of mem
bers of the house published by the clerk
Of the Fifty-ffth congress, who makes
up the pay roll for the Fifty-sixth con-
gress, has just been issued, and in that
list the name Of Brigham Young Roberts
appears along with some $50 others, va
cancies existing in five districts.

The makers of the anti-hobo law last
winter will realize probably that they
builded more, if not better, than they
knew. The number of farm laborers. and
workmen-whoh have an Unborn antipathy
to the payment of railroad fare-are, in
many cases, deferred from riding on
trucks and in other places on trains by
reason of the law which makes them
liable to arrest for a misdemcanor, and
consequently farmers see a dearth or
labor ahead when the time comes for
fall work. Unless the railroads recipro-
cate for the convenience done them, by
bringing the laborers into the state to
help gather the crop, the problem OF
securing labor is likely to be a serious

4 POPULIST ROOF.

The populists lever do anything but
they do it thoroughly.
Hence, when they were in control
of the state administration, they pro-
ceeded to do the state as thoroughly as
they knew how, in order to make their
record good.
\ Missouri slope zephyr came up in
the night and yanked the roof off the
wing which the populist administration
erected to the state capitol. An eX-
animation of the architecture shows
that the roof was about as substantial
as a populist reform. The roof was
plastered on the structure like frosting
on a layer cake. 1t was supported at

at work again. We remember their
usefulness in the Cuban campaign.
How their busy brains teemed with
plans for the subsection Of the island.
Nearly every crossroads had it's I'M
known Hannibal or Napoleon Bona
parte, whose genius was intiamed by
the. war, and whose voice vas eve
active. How the advice of these en-
bryonic military gcnii flowed in upon
the officials at Washington like book
beer down Il thirsty throat in mid
summer. How the men who man.
aged the campaign were alluded to as
''dubs'' and dummies" and leather
heads" Oh, it was a glorious tribute
to free speech and a free press to hear
the amateur StrategiSts set forth plans
for the conQuering of Spain that would
settle the whole war in Il few minutes
and rejuvenate the war department
like IL spring blood medicine.
What magnificent suggestions were
offered for the direction Of our military
and naval operations by men who
didn't know Il flank movement from
a grand march or Il naval maneuver
from Il two-step. The man who
couldn't map out Il campaign that
would lay Havana in ashes in fifteen
minutes and drive the entire Spanish
army into the sea was Il cheap skate.
Worse still. the man who kept quiet
and allowed the government to proceed
with its work of war, without tangling
up the situation with vOciferOuS Objec-
tons, was Il dub with Il marble heart,
who didn't know the first principles of
patriotism.
But it is a matter of history that the
government went on with it's work in
its own way, and finally accomplished
its purpose of freeing Cuba. 1t is true
the campaign wasn't as spectacular as
some of the amateur strategists would
have had it. The Vcsuvius was not
allowed to blow any provinces into the
next parallel Of latitude. Moro castle
was not pulled up by the roots and
dumped into the ocean. Hordes of
red Indians We're not imported from
our agencies to overrun the island and
tomahawk the reconcentradoes and the
paciticos and the colorado maduros
and the perfectos. The campaign was
conducted on less sensational lines. but
it won.
Now the Philippine islands afford
meat and drink for the hungry and
thirsty amateur Strategist. He sees
right where all the mistakes have been
made. He could put his finger on the
handspring of the situation With his
eyes shut. He would send General
Miles over With his bath tub to shame
the Filipinos to death by his personal
cleanliness. He would drive Aguin-
aldo into a hole and nail it up. Or
he would jack up the island and turn
it upside down. drown every native in
the place. and build up a new govern
ment on the bottom side, with a clean
score. He is a warm number. the
amateur strategist. And the country
is safe as long as he is running loose.

THE PHILIPPINE SITUATION.

THE PHILIPPINE SITUATION.
The situation in the Philippines is
bccomin" clearer and clearer every
day.
I'rcm the private and official dis
patches of the past few days. it is
learned:
That .Aguinallo is about to Surren-
der and put an end to the war.
That .A=uinaldo will never surrender
as long as there is Il shot III the locker.
That he has a large and Splenlidly
equipped army.
That he has no army worth mention
ing.
That the volunteers want to come
home.
That the volunteers want to stay at
Manila.
That Gen. Otis has the situation well
in hand.
That Gen. Otis has let the situation
get away from him.
That the majority of the natives
want independence.
That the majority of the natives
want annexation.
That the majority of the natives
want any old thing that will end the
war.
That .Aguinaldo is a patriot.
That AwuinaldO is a dub with Il glass
eye.
That the volunteers have started
home.
That the volunteers will start home
next week.
That the volunteers will start ZONE
some time.
1t strikes us that the Philippine sit
uation needs all umpire.

Don G. W. Musser, gives the following
rebuke to the clergy for failing to agree
with the editor that union religious ser.
vices should have been held on Decor
alton day:
"Well, brethren, we're surprised. Damn
if it isn't astonishing how you carry on,
and the times you choose for carrying on.
What kind of a picture do you suppose
you present to the ungodly of this place!
Here, for months and months this cruel
war has been dragging on. Some hun,
dreds of our brave comrades have been
taken from us and have solved the great
mystery of life, and the end is not yet.
The lannon's thunder has not yet died
out, the smoke and noise of battle are
still with us, and here you are making
faces at each other. You who came
down here to ~civilize the unfortunate
natives of these islands, to bring the light
of gospel to them already are pouting at
each other, and, reading between the
lines, one can catch: Now you stop!
You mean old thing, you go right home
or I'll tell mamma if you don't leave me
alone and a great deal morein the same
childish vein, Shame on you, brethren,
shame! What the devil do you mean
anyhow"

TOUGH BOYS.

CaDtain Aud writes from Manila
that the North Dakota regiment had
about rs difficult Il campaign as was
ever experienced by troops.
10 illustrate the staying qualities Of
the soldiers OF the regiment, it is stated
that the boys marched until the native
bulls that were used to draw trans
pOrtation carts. dropped dead from eX-
hanstiOn. Having thus proved their
superior endurance, the boys turned
in and pulled the carts themselves.
We always knew the North Dakota
boys were tough.
Captain Aud also says the volun-
teers do not want to remain in the
Philippines. He says:
1.-The idea here is to protect every
thing. even a chicken. Burn nothing,
but leave things strictly alone. so that
the Amigos may return, dig up theil
hidden guns and shoot us in the bacli
a few minutes after we have left the
town.
Il saw in the papers the other day
that the president Informed senator
Pettigrew that Gen. Otis had cable(
that the volunteers did not want to bt
sent home. I think the president wa:
giving the senator a fairy tale. Il
the volunteers don't want to go home
I never in my life saw anybody tina
did. L will venture to say that tn
ONLY persons in the volunteers WIN
wish to stay are regular army officer
commanding volunteer regiments, sa!
captains and first lieutenants in tn
regular army who are now enjoyin'
the rank and pay of colonels. Their
is today 1 per cent of the volunteer
who desire to remain. From gu
standpoint the wal for which we vo
unteered is over; we did not enlist t
remain in the Philippines and fight o
the niggers and in the jungles.'
1t appears, therefore, that pullin
bull carts is not conducive to a low
for soldering.

There is a kick on the assessment of
property in the Red river valley and the
matter will probably ONE before the
state board of equalization for adjust:
ment. The objections are raised that
the assessors have failed to make returns,
principally of personal property. Then
there is also the assessment Of real prop
city in the ~valley-not much is said of
this, but if property is to be listed at its
true value-s7. an acre is hardly a fair
price for land in Trail county. where no
land can be purchased for less than $50
