DEPARTMENT OF DAKOTA
Some Interesting History of the Establish
ment of the Military Department OF
Dakota.

st. Paul Globe: The Department Of
Dakota was established at For
Smelling September IS, 1866, with Gen
Alfred H. Terry, the hero of Fort
Fisher, in command. Prior to thai
date this territory was a part of the
department of Mississippi, which has
since been abolished in name and its
territory assigned to other depart
ments. The division of the territory
was brought about through the efforts
of Maj Gen. w. T. Sherman, who was
then in command OF the department
with headquarters in St. Louis, and
was made on account of the unrest
among the Indians of the north and
west, for the purpose Of concentrating
troops here and making it a base of
supplies. The Indians had for some
time prior to this step been ravaging
the state with tomahawks and fire.
brands, and as fast as routed out took
refuge among the peaceful tribes far
ther west and spread the spirit of dis
content, practically putting a stop to
the trend of immigration towards the
Dakotas.
The location of the headquarters at
Fort Smelling proved most unsatisfac-
tory; The only means of communi-
cation with St. Paul at that time was
by the way of Mendoza, over the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and st. Paul tracks,
and by wagon road, which necessi-
tated crossing the old ferry, and took
up much time, and consequently the
following spring saw the establish
ment of departmental headquarters at
st. Paul. The change was made on
May %, 1867, and the first building
occupied was the one which still
stands in the southeast corner of
Fourth and Wabasha.
Headquarters Enlarged.
The following year Maj. Gen. Will
liam S. Hancock succeeded Gen. Terry
in command of the department. Gen.
Hancock's incumbency extended until
Jan. 2, 1872, when Gen. Terry return
ed and again assumed command. It
was during Gen. Terry's second term
that the war department decided to
enlarge Fort Smelling, and he was en-
powered to choose the location and at
tend to the details Of construction. He
selected the present site of the new
post, and as soon as the buildings
were completed transferred the head
quarters back to Fort Smelling. In 1881,
occupying the present administration

the congested condition OF the post
again necessitated the removal Of the
department back to the city. This
time the location was taken up In the

states. Consequently no power has an
interest in preservation of the open
door equal to that of the United States
although that fact is not yet thorough
ly appreciated by the American peo-
pie. The outcome Of the struggle be-
tween Slav and lo-Saxon principles
no one is willing to predict; but indi-
cations strongly point to an early
rupture and war is sure to temporarily
unsettle European Bourses Its effect
upon the United States would be
chiefly reflected from abroad, or posi-
bly, stimulate the indirect sale of food
products to either belligerent. Both
sides are understood to be we'll pre-
pared for war; so should the struggle
be short, as many expect, there would
be no heavy borrowing in the inter
national money markets and conse-
quently no serious financial derange-
ments. Should the war be prolonged
and other powers involved, the effect
would be marked, but those contingent
cies are still remote. The effect Of
declaration of war would probably be
confined to a temporary decline in
stocks, q break in the cotton market,
and an advance in food products. Be
yond these probabilities it is unsafe to
calculate.

New York, Jan. 4.-Henry Clews
Weekly financial review says:
The chief uncertainty in the flnanci-
al situation is the Far East. With
Russia steadily pushing her encroach-
ments toward the Pacific and the GER
tainty that she cannot maintain her
commercial status in competition with
other nations, the crisis is rapidly
reaching a most acute stage. Japan
alone appears to be opposing these en-
croachments, because they make Rus
STA a close and undesirable neighbor.
Upon Japan, therefore. III case of con-
flict, will fall the task of checking
Russia, a struggle in which the United
States, Great Britain and Germany are
vitality interested. Should a trial at
arms result in Japanese defeat, enab2-
ing Russia to secure her grip upon
Manchuria, then France and Germany
will each demand its share of Chinese
territory and the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of
that ancient empire will be certainty.
No nation has q greater interest in the
destiny of China than the United
States. We are bound to be, If not
already, the dominant power in the
Pacific, and the future promises an
immense commerce for our Pacific

PRINCIPLE THUS ENUNciATED i :.
Il SOUND THEN AND SOUND NOW.

ss.tE- 4 H.. E. W.
The principle thus enunciated by Secre-
,tary 3Cass, was sound then and 1t is sound
now. The United States has taken the
position that no other government Is to
build the canal. N In 1889, when, France
proposed to come to the aid of the French
Panama company by guaranteeing their
bonds, the senate of the United States in
executive session, with only some three
votes dissenting, passed a resolution as
follows: && .
tho government of the United
States will look with serious concern and
sdisapproval upon any connection of any
European government with the construc-
tion or control Of any ship canal across the
isthmns Of Darien or across Central Amer
lea and must regard any such connection
or control as Injurious to the Just rights
and interests Of the United States and as
q menace to their welfare I, ;St r, i. III.
Under the Hay Pauncefote treaty it was
explicitly provided that the United States
should control, police and protect the canal
which was to be bnilt, keeping It open for;
the vessels OF all nations on equal terms,
The United States thus assumed the posi-
tlon Of guarantor Of the canal and of its
peaceful use ny all the world. The guar
anty included as matter OF course the
building Of the canal. The enterprise was
recognized as responding to an internation-
esty on right and Justice to treat the gov
gernments In possession Of the isthmus az
having the right, In the. language Of Mr..
Cars. s'to close the gates OF intercourse on
the great highways OF the world and jus-
tffyi the act by the pretension that. these
Avenues OF trade and travel belong to
item and that they choose to shut them
When this government submitted to Co
lbmbia the Hay-Herran treaty three things
We're. therefore. already settled.
$aS One was that the canal should be built.
I The time for delay, the time for permit
ting the attempt to he made by private
enterprise, the time for permitting any
government or anti-social spirit and Of I'M

TREATY OF 1886 OF GREAT
BENEFIT TO COLOMBIA,

1t was the opinion of eminent interna-
tional jurists that in view of the fact that
the great design of our guarantee under
the treaty of 1s46 was to dedicate the 18TH
mus to the purposes of interoceanic transit,
and above all to secure the construction OF
an interoceanic canal, Colombia could not
under existing conditions refuse to enter
into proper arrangement with the United
States to that end without violating the
spirit and substantially repudiating the OBJ
legations Of a treaty the full benefits Of
which she had enjoyed for over fifty years.
Ny intention was to consult the congress
~ to whether under such circumstances 1t
would not be prc~er TO announce that the
canal was to be dug forthwith; that we
would give the terms that we had offered
and no others: and that IL such terms ware

tives: Il -. #.
lay before the congress for It's Informs
tion statement of. my action up to this
time In executing the act entitled "An act
to provide for the construction Of canal
eonnecting the waters Of the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans" approved June 49, 1902.
By the said act the president was author.
ICED to secure for the United States the
property Of the Panama Canal company
and the perpetual control Of strip six
miles Wide across the isthmus Of Panama.
It was further provided that SHOULD the
president be unable to obtain for the Unit
60 States satisfactory title to the prop.
erty Of the new Panama Canal company
and the control Of the necessary territory
ct the republic Of Colombia =. - With
n a reasonable time and upon reasonable
terms. then the president" should endeavor
70 provide for a canal by the Nicaragua
route. The language quoted defines with
exactness and precision what was to be
Asne and what as q matter Of fact has
been done. The president was authorized
70 20 to the Nicaragua route only IL within
4 reasonable time he could not obtain ''con-
troll Of the necessary territory Of the re-
public Of Colombia" This control has now
been obtained; the provision Of the act has
been complied with; Il IL no longer posi-
bic under existing legislation to go to the
Nicaragua route as an alternative.
This act marked the climax Of the e.
fort on the part Of the United States to
secure, 20 far a. legislation was concerned,
an interoceanic canal across the isthmus.
The effort to secure treaty for this pur-
pose with one Of the Central American re-
publics did not stand on the same footing
I with the effort to. secure 4 treaty under
any ordinary conditions. The proper POSI-
ton for the United States to assume In
reference to this canal, and therefore to
the governments Of the isthmus, had been
clearly set 4erth by Secretary Cass In 1858.
In my annual message have already
quoted what Secretary Cass said; but I
repeat the quotation here, because the
principle 1t states Ia fundamental: fEt'
while the rights Of sovereignty Of the
rtates occupying this region Central Amer
5 ical should always be respected we shall
expect that these rights be exercised in a
spirit hefitting the occasion and the wants
and circumstances that have arisen. Sow
4 ereignty has Its duties as well as it's rights
and none Of these local governments, even
IL administered with more regard to the
Just demands Of other nations than they
have been, would be permitted, in spirit
Of Eastern isolation, to close the gates of
Intercourse on the great highways of the
world and justify the act by the pretension
\ that these avenues Of trade and travel be-
long to them and that they choose to shut
them, or, what is almost equivalent, to
cucumber them with such unjust relations
4 as would prevent their general use."

would rattfy the treaty or take steps which
would be equivalent thereto, yet all chance
for such action on their part did not van
ish until the congress closed at the end of
October; and within three days thereafter
the revolution in Panama had broken out.
Panama became an independent state and
the control of the territory necessary for
building the canal then became obtain
able. The condition under which alone we
could have gone to Nicaragua thereby be-
came impossible of fulfllment. If the
pending treaty with Panama should not
be ratified by the senate this would not
alter the fact that we could not 60 to
route and there is no alternative under ex-
listing legislation.
When In August 1t began to appear prob
able that the Colombian legislature would
not ratify the treaty 1t became incumbent
upon me to consider well what the situa-
tion was and to be ready to advise the con-
gress as to what were the various alterna-
tiyes Of action open to u.s. There were
several possibilities. One was that Colon
bia would at the last moment see the un
wisdom Of her position. That there might
be nothing omitted Secretary Hay, through
the minister at Rogota, repeatedly warned
Colombia that grave consequences might
follow from her rejection Of the treaty.
Although it was a constantly diminishing
chance yet the possibility of ratification
did not wholly pass away until the close
Of the session Of the Colombian congress.
A second alternative, was that by the
close of the session on the last day of De-
tober, without the ratification Of the treaty
by Colombia and without any steps taken
by Panama, the American congress on as
semhling early in November would be con-
fronted with situation in which there
hnd been a failure to come to terms as to
building the canal along the Panama route
and yet there had not been a lapse of a
reasonable tine-using the word reasonable
IN any proper sense-such as would justify
the administration going to the Nicaragua
route. This situation seemed on the whole
the most likely and as a matter of fact I
had made the original draft Of my message
to the congress with a view t. itS exist
ence.

 In addition to breathing Hyomei three or four times day through the inhaler that comes with every outfit, 1t is well iT the treatment of catarrh or catarrhal colds to moisten a piece of flannel with a few drops of Fly omei. and pin it to the night clothes right under the chin. In this way, Hyomei will be breathed the whole night long, curing while you sleep. In most cases it will break up cold over night.
 The complete Hyomei outfit, con sisiing of pocket inhaler, medicine dropper. and a bottle of Hyomei costs but one dollar. The inhaler will last a lifetime. and If more Hyumei is needed. extra bottles can be obtained for fifty cents.
 It is the most economical of. all remedies for the cure of catarrh, and the only. one that follows a natural method in treating diseases of the respiratory organs. Physicians advise change of climate for the cure of catarrh. With Hyomei, change of climate is gained while at home. It's healing balsams impregnate the air you breathe, and their health-giving and germ destroying powers go to the most remote air cells of the respiratory organs.
