Hurrah for the Fourth of July. folly dashing the bottle at his feet
"Wahpeton proposes
the Fourth of July this year in a
right lively manner. The commit
tees are all at work, and an abund
ance of money is pledged to carry
the celebration through. And a very
important feature in the programme
is the engagement of Hon. Ignatius
Donnelly, one of the very finest
orators, scholars and patriots in
America, to deliver the oration. Mr.
Donnelly is in Washington, but he
will be here the Fourth. The man
agement will see to it that this is
made the greatest day ever seen in
Richland county. The county has
the people, the intelligence, the en
ergy and the patriotism to do it.
Let everybody make arrangements
to meet at Wahpeton on tins great
gala day.
to celebrate
Memorial Exercises.
Memorial season was well observ
ed at Wahpeton.. The Silver band,
Sumner Post, the Odd Fellows, Fire
Department and school children,
citizens on foot and in carriages,
paraded the city at 1:30 o'clock p. m.
bringing up at the rink where a
speaker's stand and seats had been
arranged, and the following pro
gramme of exercises was held:
Opening Post Commander
Rending of Orders.
Salute to the dead G. A. R.
Dirge Cornet Baud
Prayer Rev. G. B. Barnes
Soldir's Farewell Quartette
The Nation's Dead Comrade i. w. Gregg
Star Spangled Banner Quartette
National Medley Cornet Band
Solo .' Miss Anna Beckwith
Remarks Comrade G. B. Barnes
In Memoriam Quartette
R-ligious Fantasia Cornet Bnnd
Memorial Address Rev. H. W. Troy
America Audience and Corbet Band
Benediction Rev. G. B. Barnes
The progrmme throughout was
well rendered and so received, but we
think that the poem "The Nation's
Dead" by Capt. Gregg deserves
special mention, not only that it is
simply grand in sentiment, but that
it was well rendered. The solo by
Miss Beckwith was well done, and
the remarks by Kev. Barnes were
especially to the point and -atten
tively listened to. The memorial
address by Rev. Mr. Troy contained
good argument, good sentiment and
all the force that could be asked for.
It was an especially deserving por
trayal of the situation, and was much
appreciated by all those fortunate
enough to have been present—and
the rink was crowded.
Sunday morning, the Rev. Mr.
Flack at the Episcopal church,
preached a memorial sermon, there
being among the large audience a
delegation of Sumner Post in full
Uniform. The reverend gentleman
considered the subject, largely, from
a political and sentimental point of
view, calling up many sad features
of that memorable four years strug
gle, and closed with a beautiful
poem dedicated to the boys in blue
and the boys in gray.
Sunday evening Rev. Mr. Barnes
preached an interesting sermon on
the occasion, there being a large del
egation of Sumner post present.
The reverend gentleman called at
tention to the fact that the Grand
Army of the Republic was a rem
nant of a once great army, and was
unique in the fact that it could
never be recruited, &c. And then
threwjn two or three pretty illus
trations to show that a remnant
was often more or as much, prized as
the whole—a man looked at it and
considered the whole. He then
made the singular statements, that
he did not want to hear an eld sol
dier criticized by other than old sol
dier, nor did he want to see or hear
an old soldier abused by other than
an old soldier. And then went fur
ther in the astonishing assertion that
he thought no man living had so
good an excuse for sinning as the
Union soldier, qualifying his state
ment by showing that the Union
soldier was not only taken out of the
environments of home comforts and
protection of all kinds, massed in
great columns of mankind, alone,
but he had the greatest right on his
side that any soldier had ever gone
to war to maintain,in the history of
,the world. Hence ftas apt to over
reach propriety and fall back on this
great moral principal to carry him
through all emergencies, so far as
spiritual affairs were concerned.
And then on the other hand said
that he thought no man living had
so poor an excuse for sinning as did
the Union soldier. He was in the
interest of the greatest cause under
the sun and should have sought to
serve God, and if summoned to the
next world, to have been thoroughly
ready, with the great advantage of
having died in a noble cause. The
reverend gentleman did. honor to
the army, for we believe he was
ani

regaining the mastery of him
self. This required greater strength,
more courage and better command
of one's good faculties ihan was
ever brought out by an occasion
whose principal features were great
armies and brilliant officers. In all
human wisdom, for instance, no
general was to be compared to this
ideally reformed man.
In speaking of the forty insane
patients who passed through Wah
peton on the Fargo & Southern road
last whek, from Yankton to their
new quarters at Jamestown, The
Fargo Republican noticing them at
that place,said: They breakfasted at
the Headquarters, where a large
crowd had gathered to see them.
There was little or nothing in then
actions that indicated insanity, and
but for the expression on their coun
tenances, their mental disorders
would not have been suspected. It
is said that there are forty more
North Dakota patients in the Yank
ton asylum, but these being the
more violent of the lot, will not be
removed until arrangements are
completed at Jamestown for their
proper accommodation. Those who
came in this morning were in charge
of Dr. 0. W. Archibald, superinten
dent of the Jamestown institution,
Messrs. M. E. Foley and W. D.
Nickeus, of Jamestown, and two of
the attendants at Yankton.
A special from Madison, Wiscon
sin, the 21st inst., thus speaks of a
sad scene: In the municipal court
yesterday Mrs. Rebecca Marrowat
and Mrs. Margaret M. Cooles, of
Mitchell, Dak..sisters,pleaded guilty
to the charge of perjury. They
have been sentenced to two years
in the state prison. Each woman
had an infant in her arms.
Kneeling at the feet of the judge
they pleaded for mercy for their ba
bies. Judge Bailey, with tears in
his eyes, said the law was inflexible,
but he would fix, the lightest sen
tence allowed. Mrs. Marrowat has
a husband whom she has lived in
terror of for two years: The babies
will accompany their mothers to
prison. An effort will be made to
secure an executive pardon in their
case. These women are sisters of
James Kirby, alias Simmons, a well
known cracksman, who with one
Edwards was last year sentenced to
state prison for five years from
Madison for burglary. At the trial
of Kirby, these women swore they
were in Baraboo the sixteenth of
July last, the night of the burglary,
and that Kirby was also there. The
attempt to prove an alibi was un
availing, however, and Kirby was
found guilty after a most exhaust
ing trial. The women were arrested
for perjury in the case.
A Washinton special of the 23d,
says: A tall, handsome, brown-faced
man arrived in Washington this
morning and registered at the Na
tional hotel as Israel Green, Mitchell,
Dak. Mr. Green is a democrat and
wants the land office at Mitchell.
He is a hard-working man and a
good neighbor. His people all in
dorifo him for what he wants. Nev
ertheless, he is a marked man and
it is strange if he does not return to
Dakota in a few weeks disappointed.
He is the man who took old John
Brown prisoner at Harper's Fery,
and it was Green who gave the old
hero the saber wound on the head
that nearly killed him before the
law of Virginia could take its mur
murderous course. Mr. Green, a
lieutenant of marines under Col.
Robert E. Lee, was ordered to take
a detachment and charge the engine
house in which Brown and his
had taken refuge. Green was the
first man to enter the fort as it is
now called. His men had broken
the door with a ram. He leaped on
the right hand leaf of the door as it
fell in. The door sprung back after
he got in, and a shot was heard, and
it was thought on the outside that
he was hit, but as he landed on the
floor, Col. Washington, who was the
prisoner of the insurgents, cried
out, "God bless you, Green, there's
Brown# He was able to

Fargo lectures the Republican of that
city for giving countenance to Riel
and his followers, and the editor of
that paper replies by comparing the
Northwestern rebellion with the
American revolution. Certainly.
Now the Republican should proceed
to show that Riel is the peer of Pat
