Before the Vermillion Convention for the Honor of Representing Dakota in CongreM, The Vermillion convention has nomi nated Mr. R. Frank Pettigrew for con gressional delegate. The next feature in the campaign will be the democratic territorial convention, which has been called to meet at Sioux Falls 011 -DR. MEYER'S WITHDRAWAL. EiiUtolury Document Which Will tract Attention. To tho Editor of the Dead wood Timca. My name having been prominently mentioned in connection with the demo cm tic delegateship, I desire to state that under no circumstance will I become a candidate. The time having arrived in the politios of the Black Hills when the claims of those who opened up the coun try are ignored and nominations and elec tions are an open bid for those who have the money to buy them with, regardless of puHtical record, affiliation or service to the territory or section, when men who are naught but hirelings take prominent place in the political nattle and whose only aim is to plunder the unfortunate candidate when so-called democratic newspapers refuse to place the names of candidates of the party at the head of their columns unless for $500 or such a matter when political fossils are permit ted to dominate the situation, and with effrontery say to the people of this coun try, "we have the money, we will buy you all." I want none of it. What I Lave done for the democratic party du ring the last four years lias been done frtely, and I am happy if my efforts shall have contributed one jot or title towards the success of the great principles of Jef fersonian doctrine. the fifteenth. It remains to be seen whether or not that body will depart from the time honored tradition of the party, which requres it, no matter how poor a nomination the republicans present, to make a worse oue. BENNETT. Becauso Judgo Bennett has suffered defeat in the convention of his party for a renomination, which, according to us age, he was excusable in expecting, the fact need not be taken as any reflection upon that gentleman's othcial course wliile representing Dakota in congress. The Argus, wliile it has not been regard ed by the judge with friendly sentiments, has accorded liim full meed of praise for hard work, and faithful attention to the interests of his constituents. If Judge Bennett were half as good a politician as he has been a representative,lie might have easily won a second terra. The lessons of the late contest may not'be lost upon him, and in furthering any le gitimate ambitions he may entertain in the future, ho may, perhaps, bo more careful about creating the personal an tagonisms which have been such efficient weapons in the hands of his antagonists of 1880. The result of the Vermillion conven tion, while it not deck the banuers of north Dakota with the laurels of victory, yet lett the fame and popularity of this section's champion unscathed and as bright as ever. The friends whom tho gallant captain has carried with him du ring the campaign, like tho "old guard' of Gen. Orant, are with him still their ranks unbroken, their courage unsubdu ed, and their swords ready to bo drawn again under his brilliant leadership. It will be remembered with hearty appre ciation, that throughout tho contest, Marshal Raymond's honorable ambitiou has occupied a secondary place to his attachment for the grand region 6f north Dakota, with whose people he made his home and with those fortunes he allied himself at a time when perhaps political considerations would nave induced cold blooded politician to liave remained in active alliance wi'.h the section and influence controlling l-iio most votes, But he stood by ami for the north, aud of the north will probably bear the fan I in 80 remembrance when an opportunity offers.
