the Presbyterian ministry was presented
to the Chicago P%resbytery last Monday,
and the committee from that body which
appointed for the purpose of con-

appeal to the Jewish people of Chicago
to raise $500, 900, which is the amount yet

Queen InSulted.

New York, April 9.-According to the
copy of the United freshman, which was
seized, contained the following extracts
from an article by Maud Come, en-
titled 1.-THE Famine Queen"
I'm truth for Victoria, in the decrep-
tude of her 81 years, to have decided,
after an absence of half a century, to re-
visit the country she hates, whose inhab-
tants are the victims Of the criminal
policy of her reign, the political neces-
sity must hav been terribly strong, for
after all she is a NM and, however
vile, selfish and pitiless her soul. she
must sometimes tremble as death ap-
proaches when she thinks of the count-
less Irish mothers who, shelterless and
watching their starving little ones, have
cursed her before they died. Every evic-
ton during 63 years has been carried out
in Victoria's name, and, if there is JUS
tice in heaven, the shame Of these poor
Irish emigrant girls, whose very limo
cence renders them an easy prey and
who have been overcome in the terrible
struggle for existence on a foreign shore,
will fall ON this Oma whose bourgeois
virtue is so boosted, and in whose name
their homes We're destroyed.
Taking the shamrock in her Withered
hand, she dares to ask Ireland for SOL
diers to protect the exterminators Of
their race"
Dublin April Accommodating upon
the seizure of the United Irishman, the
Dublin Independent condemns the action
of the authorities as stupid and mop
perfume" 1t says: Looking through
the issue, we find many coarse and inso-
lent differences to the queen n lord
lieutenant, which no one with the in
stincts of a gentleman could attempt to
defend. but, a~busively offensive as they
are, they afforded no justification for
suppression"
The Freeman's Journal remarks: "The
castle has again acted with its usual stu
pidity. Such unWarrantable interference
with the press without a trial or warn
ing would never be attempted or toler-
ated in England. The castle authorities
deem the queens visit an suspicious mo-
ment to emphasize the difference be-
tween the two countries"

EDITORIAL MEETINGS.

We note the letter of Editor De la Bere
of the Sheldon Progress suggesting that
an editorial business meeting be held at
Bismarck this winter. Also some peril
nent remarks by the Grand Forks Her
aid on the same subject. AS the Herald
remarks, it has been so far found impos-
sible to get the publishers together for a
purely business meeting. On the other
hand social gatherings have been of in
creasing popularity. But as the Herald
says, when gathered socially with many
tempting outside attractions, business
has been almost an lmpossibility. Per-
haps at Devils Lake this summer, if it
had not been for the extraordinary cir
cumstance and pleasure of the presence
and speech of Senator Dolllver some
business discussion might have been con-
sidered. But it was the unanimous and
sensible choice of the newspaper men to
listen to SO fine an orator as Senator
Dolliver rather than to our own talk.
But business is business for all that,
and ought to be attended to. Whether
we would attend to business at Bismarck
better than we did at Grand Forks or the
Chautauqua is at least experimental. To
go to Bismarck in body for the avowed
purpose to influence legislation in our
behalf might and perhaps would defeat
any sucll legislation. For. that pni1sose
we are more powerful at home. On the
other hand, we have at every session OF
the legislature enough newspaper men
who live in the immediate locality or as
members or attaches of the legislature
are present in sufficient numbers to form
a lobby big enough and with brains
enough to formulate, and with the assist
ance of the brethren at their homes, to
carry through the legislature any really
needed newspaper legislation.
Nevertheless, it is well known that
during the legislative term, large num-
Der of the publishers take trip to Bis
marck, and it is quite possible that little
inducement would cause others to go.
Now if these trips could be made at one
time that would made a big attendance
and it is quite probable that considerable
business other than legislative matters
could be attended to with profit for all
concerned.
The pioneer express. [volume] (Pembina, Dakota [N.D.]) 1883-1928, 1900-11-23

with opposition within their own ranks
as we have stated, but the most disheart-
ming thing that the republican prohibi-
zionist has to meet is not only the want
of support from the ultras within the
ranks but their actual warfare outside the
lines, as during the present year. And
two years hence when we meet in con-
vention to nominate candidates and we
ask for prohibition plank in the plat
form on which to pledge our candidates,
we will be met with whitening finger Of
scorn pointing to the vote Of the prohibi-
ton party and the reduced majority for
MIR. Comstock.
1t is wonder, almost, that prohibi-
ton element can exist within the repub-
lican party when it has democrats to tace,
anti.prohibition republicans on either
flank, and ultra prohibitionists at their
back, all waeing the hottest fight of which
they are capable on the only body OF
men that can or ever did do anything for
prohibition.

Third-The result Of all this in repre-.

/ Third-The result of all this in repre-
sentation in congress is what particularly
concerns the northern people. Based on
population the states Of Minnesota, Miss
issippi and South Carolina have equal
representation in the House Of Repre-
sentatives, each having seven, and
Louisiana is nearly as large, having six
representatives. But when one COM
pares the vote, the representation is
manifestlv unfair. In 1895 Minnesota
cast for presidential candidates 346, III
votes; Mississippi, 70,472; S. Carolina.
6S, 93s; Louisiana, 101, 127; end even our
own North Dakota with single repre-
sentative cast AZ $40 votes, and this year
will undoubtedly nearly equal the total
vote OF some of the above named south
ern states.
When the constitution was first written
this same difficulty arose. The southern
slave holders claimed representation for
their slaves as population" but as il
was manifestly wrong to allow represen-
tation for the people who were not
voters, the first negro question was com
promised by allowing them representa-.
ton for s'.hree fifths ofall other persons. /"
To summarize; the southern states
have disfranchised the negro. Through,
the influence of this local issue they have
practically disfranchised large minority
of the white voters. Therefore. if the
south has practically gone back to the
voting status of before the war;" would
it not be right that they be put back to
the constitutional status ofrepresentation
at that time, to-wit; the voting popul-
alton and three fifths of all other
parsons" Approximately 10000 voters
determine who shall be representa-
tive in district in Mississippi and Soutl,
Carolina while in Minnesota and North
Dakota the members of the lower h. use
OF Congress each represent SO, 200 voters,
and 10000 should not have equal power
in this government with $4,000.
The XIV amendment to the constitu.
ton clearly covers this case and in brief
says, that when the right to vote for presi-
dent representatives, or state officers
is abridged, that their representatives in
congress may be reduced in proportion.
1t is quite certain that in the next con.
gress action looking to this matter will
be attempted.

UNEouAL REPRESENTATION.

There is quite feeling being develop.
ed in reference to cutting down the
representation in the southern states fol
the reason that they have practically dis
franchised the negro.
While we have recently spoken of this
matter in these columns, yet as it is
again matter of public interest, we may
again review the subject as pertinent tc
the present.
The southern people are lovers o.
liberty, and in ordinary matters are jus,
and law abiding. Yet they almost unani.
mously declare by their voices and laws
that the negro is unfit for the franchise
No northern man has right
in the face of this testimony to assume
that the southern opinion and action is
totally wrong. On the other hand there
is no doubt whatever that the negro is
being deprived ofrights guaranteed by
the constitution of. the United Sntes.
The solution of this question is very
grave matter but we hardly see how out.
side states can interfere with what is
certainly very much Of local question.
Necessarily it must be worked out by
the southerners themselves. It is one ol
the legacies left them by the institution
ofslavery, and it takes a long time ia
make grievous wrong perfectly right il
ever it can be done.
But. while to large extent this quest.
ion IS peculiarly a 10 cal one, yet in other
ways. it affects the whole nation.
First: This question makes the whole
south solidly democratic. Any white
man who votes and works for the repub.
lican party is almost necessarily stig.
matized as "nigger lover" and social,
business and political ostracism is the
result. And yet As certain as there are
intelligent thinking men in the south,
just SO certain is il if7 this local question
were out Of the way. that there would be
many thousand republicans In the south.
There IS just as much reason for differ.
ence Of opinion in the south Is In the
north, and now when the soutllerners IRE
establishing manufactures and develop.
ing mineral resources there IS more
reason than ever for such political differ
ence, but ~ Of old, the local question II
paramount and overshadows all Others.
