"Who is Henry ^chafer?'* cxclaim
-d Johnny Owen, last Saturday even
M'g. as he and J. "W, Bell fortified
themselves and their Lovvthian fac
hen for the coming struggle. "Who
ver heard of Schafer?". On Tues«
uay the number of voters in this dis
fi .ct who had heard of Henry ,Schafer
were eighty-eight more than those
who did not wish to hear of him.
•chaferdon't belong to Johnny's kind.
The joint session of (Iran: and "Rob
ert's county commissioners at MiJbank
last week, did not accomplish anything
n the way of adjusting the county in
iitbtedness. It was ihought best to
employ the services of an expert to
determine the true amount of the debt.
John W. Hell has been suggested as a
capable expert, knowing so well as he
does where most of the monev has
gone to.
One fact that contributed greatly to
the success ol' eluit'ei's candidacy in
the late election, was Bell's endorse
ment of the opposite faction, llu
pondered long and figured closely, and
with his accustomed political sagaci
ty flopped to the wrong side at the
eleventh hour. At a love feast held
over the ingathering of this noted con
vert, he tried with Johnny Owen's
help, to explain away f30,000 of Grant
county's indebtedness, laying the
blame at Schafer's door but remem
brance of the true cause was too fresh
iu the minds of the people. The al
lusion reacted like a boomerang*
"There is many a slip 'twixt the cup
and the lip." So thought the self
styled "anti-ring, anti-county-seat-is
sue, whole-hog, all-office" party, last
Tuesday evening when the election
returns came in. So long as the coun
ty seat was in controversy they stood
right by their confederates in fraud,
but no sooner was the difficulty settled
than they swung off, charged their
former accomplices with all the crime
committed and knowing the people of
the county desired rest and harmony
on all sides, Hung to the winds the
banner of peace.
Trusting in the sincerity of their
professions, the people of the county
in general, and of Big Stone iu partic
ular, endorsed the movement, and on
the strength of inaugurating an era of
peace, carried triumphantly the elec
tion of delegates to the Sioux Falls
convention.
When the choice of commissioner
ame up for adjustment this fall Big
Stone put in a respectful claim, which
was readily conceded by both parties
in Milbank as perfectly just. All that
was asked by cither was that Big Stone
should be united on a man of their
own. This they did most emphati
culy, on Henry Schafer. But in the
meantime the so-called "peace party"
ha»l secured the Miibank delegation,
and feeling themselves all-powerful
in convention, political spoils loomed
i.p in perspective, and suddenly it oc
curred to them iu all its hideonsness
that Ilenry chafer was a Big Stone
man, the leader in the county-seat
light and a man that would audit iile
U'al claims. The wise policy that had
been apparently sincere on their part'
and on the strength of which tliev
had acquired a respectable following,
was recklessly cast aside and a chron
ic office seeker and pliaut tool set up
to thwart the good intentions of the
p'ople.
Whether or not a Big Stone man
should or could be elected to a
other, the very party who had built
themselves up by shouting "peace."
It was a question of right and wrong,
of taxation without representation, a
matter of principle with 1

office irrespective of character, simp- I
Jy because he was prominent in the
county seat light had been fought
against one Milbank faction last Au
gust and now it was to be settled once
and lorever, by tightiug it against the
i
and a more manly course, gentlemen
if you would maintain a successful
party.
A common instance of the attrac
tiveness of Big Stone as a placejof per
manent location and faith in its ulti
mate prosperity is evidenced by the
purchase, last week, by Rev. Mooers
of seven acres on the lake shore, lyinu
between the city limits and the Indi
an Mineral Springs, for $100 per acre.
'.Die purchase was made of llawes &
Gibson, and is nearly half of the par
cel of ground bought by them of O.
Martel, last spring,and on which are
situated the noted mineral springs,
still retained by them. It is a beauti
ful piece of real estate and in five
Years will lie worth live times what
the reverend gentleman has paid for
it. Abundance of young timber and
fresh spring water, with perpetual use
in fee simple of the strong mineral
spring adjoining, makes the location
indeed a desirable one. We know not
what Rev. Mooers intends doing with
it. as he keeps his own counsel rather
close for editorial catches, but if he
designs it for any thing short of a
university, seminary or state eapitol,
he will make a misapplication of the
finest site in Dakota. Who can make
him divulge? We realize
already
that
he is an enthusiastic worker and has
unbounded confidence in Big Stone's
great future, and would like to know
what he has in store for us.
IX Till ST.4TIVS.
In the recent elections much has
transpired to make the Republicans
feel sure of success in the presiden
tial race of 1884. New York, which
a year ago gave Cleveland, Democrat,
200,000 majority this week elected a
Republican Secretary of State by
12,000 majority, though the JDemo:
crats secure the rest of the State of
fices by smaller majorities. The leg
islature is strongly Republican.
In Massachusetts, Butler has been
defeated, and Robinson, Republican,
elected Governor by lo^uoo majority.
Mahoneism in Virginia has been
completely overthrown and the state
carried by the Democrats to the tune
of 20,000 majority. In view of this,
it is well for Republican success in
the next presidential campaign that
New York has been redeemed.
Fensylvania is carried by the Re
publicans by about 18,000 majority
and Minnesota by 12,000 this bring
ing into line all the Republican States
of 1880. The New York Tribune
sums up on the day following the les
son, of Tuesday's election:
Yesterday's work makes Republi
can success possible in the next pres
idental contest. Now the Republicans
can fairly hope, by good conduct and
good fortune, to carry every Slate
they had in aud thai as against
a party so prone to blunder, and so
many chances to blunder, as the Dem
ocrats. their prospect for carrying
enough of them is more than fair.
