Washington, .special Telegram, Not. 2.—
Gov. Ordway of Dakota lias submitted his an
nual report to the Heerotary of the interior. II
is a volumiuous document. Moru than half of
it is occupied in explaining the position of the
governor on the questioa of removing the
eapra! ntul in au extensive defeuee of the re
moval cominisdio!). It is made up largely of
newspaper clippings, and is the old removal
fight, from tho governor's point of view, again.
Fiji) governor ?ava tha togrout aud develop
ment of Dakota in the last two years lias been
almost phenomenal. Tho lido of emigration
which set in s'roagly in 1880, has beenntoadi'iy
increasing until during the past year. He
thinks a fair estimate of the increase in popu
lation would loach 100,000, while tho increase
Of assessable property baa eveu been more
ttarko I than the increase iu the number of in
habitants. He then proceeded to call attention
to the wonderful resources of Dakota, which
•re being dovelopecl in so large a dene *, gives
very encouraging shit 'meat regarding tho
climate, tho education a id health of the people
of Dakota, aud then Ukon up the subject of
ilivi ling tho Territory and admitting a part
into the Union.
HE SA1T.S XX, SO TO SPEAK.
He explains ut length tho faiturj of the bill
"reating a Male out nf certain counties of tho
Territory, and justifies bis action irt allowing
the bill to expire by limitation without his ap
proval.

who did iiot suiH-'ort the measure, or who did so
from e im: u ioa ia order to secure the t».ssage of
measures which they deemed tc be of import mce
to their cons'iuients. Men etyliug i hnnsehos ex
ecutive commissioners have, without sanction of
law, ussuiaed to hold etec.ion*, and ia some in
stances have induced legally elected
officers to use election machinery to choose dele-
a
scattered constitutional convention
which recently met
at
Sioux Falls, and prepared
from the constitution of the various States a dum
ber of tolerably fair propositions tube incorporated
iu
a
constitution fur certaiu counties iu to*? south

tions nut forth by this body, if placed n a consti
tution, w^u il destroy tho treat privilege of uqu&l
Ity in taxation, and open numerous avenues for
strong combination* au Khylocks to escape a just
share ot the public burh»ns. Wiiile stating these
views and erincHms of thr* metho la and aims of
aoinn of the adroit manipulators of this movement
looking toward division ana statehood, I do not
wish to l»e uivl'tr-tood as objectimr to. or staii'lhnr
in the way of. ei'her division or imm^diatn admis
sion. Ou the contrary. I atn quifo wilUu.' to co
operate with the honest .-.eutimeut of the people of
the Territory, fairly exor-^sed upon all these ques
tions. I r"C «.'nizf, however, th- fact that tile di
vision of li e Territory and the ultimate admission
of the two States, which the population at the pres
ent time would warrant under former precedents,
has become a political question, which is likely to
be solved by tho supposed latere** of political
parties. The decisive actiou of the minority iu the
last house of representatives, in refusing by nearly
a strict party vote to take ud the
question
"some
of
division ov admission foicjs me to the conclusion
that the same par:y will not be likely, with more
tuau lifty majority in the house of representatives,
to accept a constitution emanating troia the men
who assumed leadership at the Sioux Falls jMther

TITF, PRINCIPAL BANOEB,
however, lies u tin fact tnat the mampuhitors of
the movement pr-ipos* lo subsequently elee,, a
iarit- number of so-called State officer- and a leui-.
laturo. locate a capital and thiou.fh the smn-j
expensive farej i.at wa-s indulged in by the people
of Co irado. Ti.i- result ot that exp^rinu-nt, I um
informed by t-».. i r.i men of Colorado, ft-jciyed in
stead of ac.'e er ted admission which was tniuliv
accomplished through an euab:iujj act from cou
Kress: and that very few
of
the so-called Su*o of­
ficers, and even those claiming to ive been e!-.-cu»d
to congress, received any recognition from
the people of the State of Co. r.rdj,
when regularly admitted into tho Union.
In dealing wall this question 1 have been j»o\(-rned
by ray oath of office aud the provisions of the or
gan e act which requires me, as the exfeuiive
officer i the Territory, lo see that the laws are
faithfully executed. I have therefore become com
pelled to discountenance the wil vai-uiing* of
demagogues who have sought to inflame tfou public
mind against ie federal government and cau# an
unlawful change trom Territorial to State govern
ment mihuut the sanction of congress, even though
these vaporings em-mated from th United Sutes
oflicials, whose counsels and conduct have been in
dirm violation of tiieir oaths of ufiice.
Gov. Ordway recommends that, if congreaa
does not see tit to create a new State, it pas
a
au act calling a constitutional convention, to
include all tho counties, and tuat it have power
to prepare one or two constitutions, as tho
majositv aha'd det.Tmine, which shall be sub
mitted to congress for approval. Or he thinks
Ihe passage of a comprehensive enabling act,
to be submitted to tho people, would bring
about a Bettlemeut of tho trouble. He denies
the charge that tho capital rem val bill was
rushed turough witlnmt due consideration.
Tho act ia iu full force aud will
ho remain until tha f-uprerno court,
which does not mojt until May, 1KS1J, sv-*ll

The ArlisstU: Work that Can De Done
WitO a I'oker,
"In 1845," said an art dealer to a New
York Tribune reporter," there lived in
the city of Boston a worthless vagabond
named Hidden, a man who had seen
better days. lie was an artist—had
wonderful talent, and during his period
ica! sprees would devote himself assitl
lously to his peculiar work, though he
was never kno'vn to do anything while
sober. Ilaluen's portraits were the best
specimen of his art, and they were mar
vels of correctness. They were general
ly burned on a thin board ol bird's eye
mapel with a red hot poker td the ordi
nary shape, alter which they received
two coats of varnish, which was put on
to preseve them, and set in deep, heavy
frames. He cal'ed them 'noker
sketches,' and on tin* back of each was
burned thi inscription: 'Tain s-kctch
was burned with a poker—liaiden, scui
I'ist.'
"His likf n"pcs wore strikiivj, and the
three of them now in exisi'-nco, al
though executed from meni-n-v, are

stand in the chimney corner seventv

children of the past generation. If nu
heirloom of this kind can he nude pret
iv and attractive, why shouid it not be?
The old chair metamorphosed so that
our sjreat-grandtaother w uld never re
cognize it, perhaps, is a reminder of the
dear old people who emiured many
hardships ia those early days. The first
thins: to he done to niodei nize the an

take *-ff tiie old paint ptid
smooth the rough wood with
idass and sandpaper. After this process
has been gone through with very care
fully, a coat of the best black paint is
applied this dry, it is rubbed down
with very line sand paper and another
coat put on. If desirable, lines of mlt
are run around the legs, or wherever
they will add to the uenerul eflect. Tiie

Keep Hie Rallied Warm
How to keep babies warm in winter is
always a problem. Ihe best way is not
only to provide them with knitted or

sacks to wear outside their white dress

Wamitli and Pure Air for Stock.
The loss from unnecessary expsur" -f
stock in at h*rn la itmh s amounts to
millions of dollars in this country every
winter, ami the importance ol tiie ques
tion of' sheher for stock needs to be. ad
vocated. There is u-m.illy much lens ex
posure of h"jea than cattle, and the
foi mer are better enabled to bear the
inclemency of weather if accustomed t.)
it. Cattle are naturally sensitive to cold,
and while with au abundence if hearty
food btfore them they ate capable of eu
durins much severe weather, yet econ
omy requires that duo attention be giv
en to the subject, and suitable means
for shelter and comlort jtfovided.
Many farmers allow their stock to be
unnecessarily exposed in winter, from
mere carelessness and ignorance of the
laws pertaining to the health and com
fort of all animals. They need to be re
minded that the fieat in all warm
blwoued animals requires to bo kept at
nearly the temperature, «nd that w hen
the weather becomes col4 or stormy,
as in winter, some provision u list, be
made to keep up the animal heat to
its normal degree. This ma\ usually be
accomplished by feeding the animate
lieavily of strong concentrated food but
it can be done much cheaper by provid
ing suitable protection against the cut
ting winds and pelting stornn. Fresh
