The Belknap impeachment trial began
in the Senate on the 27th ult., when Mr.
Lord submitted a motion that the evidence
relating to the question of jurisdiction of
the Senate be given before the argument
relating thereto/and if such plea is over
ruled that the defendant be required to an
swer, the articles of impeachment within
two days and the House reply, if, they
deem- it necessary, within two days, and.
that the trial proceed'the next day.
After tl joining of the issue Carpenter,
of the Counsel for tlie accused, moved that
the trial be postponed» tilt th^ fir^~ Monu
day in December n^xt, and asked mat the
time for discussing this motion
day-
rbe
fixed at
two hours for each side. The request was
granted. After discussing the matter
awhile, .the ^Senate adjourned, until next
rJr&yi
On Friday, Mr. Ferry announced that
the several orders had been agreed upon
as follows:
It is hereby ordered that the Senate pro.
ceed first to hear and determine the ques*
tion whether. Belknap is amenable to trial
by impeachment fur acts done as Secreta
ry of war, notwithstanding his resignation
of Said office, and that the managers and.

MINO YOUR OWN BUtlNKM,
Ithasbeen wid that the reason some
people never mind their own business, is
because they have no business of their own
to attend Id. This saying wt think was
thoroughly verified in this place at the
Milroad meetiag last Mondsy evening.
The eitlanis of Canfon and a number
ifcom tiie different pyts of the county, had
gathered at the citurt House for tho pur
pose of talking over, and coming to seme
conclusion as to the amount and the best
way to raise that amount .to be given in
aid of the Pembina railroad. The fort
part of the meetiug passed oil' pliuangtly,
adtl would undoubtMlly hare ujjjurual
without having had any unpleasant or na
frlendly remarks, had not cltiioris of tin
loit tiiken upon themsdlves the position

prove that that was the only object in

of Canton will be glad to meet the citizens
of Bcloit on matters wherein the interests
of both towns are at stake or are perfect
ly willing and glad to have citizens from
out side the county attend our public
meetings, if they will just "mind their own
business." The assualt made upon Mr.
Braoks by one of their party was no more
or less than a gross insult, and a disgrace
to the pe petrator and'we are pleased to
aay,'that Mr. Brooks showed himself too
respectful to notice the matter. There is
so doubt but that Beloit feels mad, very^
mad over the Canton's prospects to secure
the railroad that it wanted so badly.
Canton or Lincoln county is not to
blame because you could not raise money
to build 18 miles of the road. You made
the company a proposition 'hat you were
unable to Ufill and now because Lincoln
county hits made a proposition which it can
fulfill, is it not attending to that which is
"none of your business," for you to come
on this side the river and try to deceive
our people relation to this road, and the
aid proposedf
We think if you look at the matter in
the right light, you will see it as we do,
and atone for pa6t actions by "minding
your own business" in the future.
Communication from Commissioner A
jV-,,:,'4' "sson.
EbirroBS ADVOCATE Allow me through
your columns to answer an article of
County Commissioner W. H. Ball which
appeared in the Hew* of the 13th ult., as
fothws:
"Wm. H. Ball claimed that the Chair
man bad no right to ask the adoption of a
resolution that no motion was before the
Board whes the Cliairmatf demanded the
yeas and nays, that there was no second
and voted no under protest."
Mr. Ball refers to the resolution adopted
at the last session of the County Commis
sioners in regard to the Court House. In
reply 1 desite to state a few facts so the
public may know the standing of each of
us. Mr. Ball wanted in the first place hia
n« "V.i T^rv C'JinplrHf eviiic'.iic" of his
Mr. Ball has beca v.*ry decided in his
prevent us from taking any action in the
matter. It appears that sport is more im
portant to some men than business.
After the result was known there was a
cry heard throughout tlie county (especial
ly the Western and southwestern parts) that
we were wasting the public money, and
now I expect that something similar will
he heard about accepting the Deed of the
:Court House. .„.
People of Lincoln county I' I want to
make an estimate for you and see if I.don't
put down the right figures. Suppose the
Court House is used for county offices*
court room, &c., for a period of four years
at least, there being no great show for'the
county seat being moved before that time,
and in my judgment it seems that it will
riot be moved in eight yetfs if ever.
Now tbe law requires us to furnish office
rooms for the 'respective cohuty oncers,
and at present tiiree rooms will answtr
besides the court room. After the let of
next January, four or .fiye rooms. ,will be
necessaiy.
Let us say five rooms itt $8.00 a month
will make $40 a month or $180 a year for
two yean $960, and so on. This is for
the use of the Court House only,: and the
vault must be worth something to the
county. A majority of the people know
how the County records have been kept
heretofore, in bui dings where fire could
destroy this valuable property to several
times the cost of the vault, besides it
would be impossible to renew all Ute re
cords if destroyed by fire.1
Mr. Ball and others may answer that
J. M. Carpenter made jusi as good as offer
to the county—the use of office rooms for
five yews and of a safe for one year with
out .charge. But it would have been rath
er unsafe to keep only half a dozen records
in the safe and not provide for the teat If
we then had bought a couple of safes fit
for the purpose, it would have coet shout
these times as much as the vault and would
sot answer the purpose so well astte
vault, sn? after the explntion of five years
the county #ould haye to build Court
House it its ow| expense just as wdl,aa if
should happen that Qaoton Is sot tha
Conner seat aavw or elglrt yean henoa.

to work as a tool tn be used by men whose

Messrs. A. H. Mori-won, L. Hull and C.

Portlandville, the preaeut term inna of the
Sioux City and

mbina, thence on by
These gentlemen have been looking over
the country with a view to taking hold of
and extending the Pembina road from
Portlandville to Sioux Falls. They ex
press themselves highly pleased with the
country and its prospects, and, although
thdy have not yet definitely decided to take
hold of that enterprise, there is, however,
a fitfr probability they WiU do so at an ear
ly day. Lincoln county stands ready to
givJi $75,000 in bonds for the extension of
the road on. Dakota side of the Big
Siojix River, and the people all along the
mute are at feter heat to secure railroad
facilities. The gentlemen referred to above
are men of means, and if they decide to
pick up the enterprise where it has been
temporarily dropped and push it along to
completion, connecting Sioux Falls with
Sioux City byfthe iron rail, they will, we
hope, find "millions in it!" They are
abundantly able to do the work, and it
looks now as plough they might be pre
vailed upon to complete that road, ina»
much as they are naturally inclining that
way.
So far as the selling oi an interest of the
Dakota Southern road to A. H. Morrison
is concerned, we are assured that no such
sale has yet taken place, nor will it take
plaee at present Messrs. Morrison, Hull
and Billings leaves for the east to-day.—

CONFESSION OP QUILT.
The movement on the part of Gen. Bel
knap's counsel for the postponement of
his" trial until December is not calculated
to improve the public estimate of the ex
Secnslary's case. The impression natur
ally follows that the defense desire to de
fer the trial until public attention shall
have been withdraws from the case, whan
the chances for acquittal would be im
proved. Time would blunt the perception
of the wrong done, and sympathy for the
accused would be given full sway. Then
the date named would carry the ease be
yond the Presidential election, tnd justice
in politics would be expected to be less
stern than in the campaign days. If
Gen. lknap isgnilty, he should be pun
ished, as a matter of justice, and only of
justice, and not at all in the way of maa
ufacturing party capital. If he is inno
cent, he should not be punished, though
the motives of Hepnblicans might be ao

ignorance, or malice, let that be as it may.
I cannot see it in any other light th*i he

Gen. Belknap's case, for they could not
have made a move more calculated to con
firm the public mind in its verdict of
guilty. Gen. Belknap denies that he made
confession of guilt when first confronted
.with the charges upon which the
against him is based. It will now devolve
upon him to deny that his counsel have
made confession, if he did not Siow
