The grand lodge of t.lio independent

Sioux Falls.
The democrats of Clny comity will
hold a convention at Vermillion on Sat
urday for the nomination of a county
ticket.
It is reported that the
Chicago & North
western railroad is surveying a line west

direction of Canton or Beloit.
Vermillion Republican, 14th: John
Kelley of Meckling, lost three children,
all he had, of diphtheriatio croup. The
last and oldest child was buried on Tues
day.
The democrats of Union county have
nominated the following ticket: For the
council, John Welch for the house, Mi
chael Curry and Michael White for
treasurer, Geo. Stiokney for register of
deeds, Wm. Hamilton for sheriff, J. B.
Brouillette for superintendent of
schools, Wesley McNeil.
The following is the republican ticket
for county officers in Clay county:
Council, John L. Jolley house, George
Woodworth commissioner, J. P. Wast'

sheriff, George H. McDonald probate
judge, H. A. Copeland treasurer, S. N.
Palmer superintendent of schools, C.

coroner, Dr. M. M. Rowley.
The leading republican paper of the
cow counties, the Yankton Press and
Dakotaian, is filled with able articles,
but they don't refer to the piokerel can
didate. Pettigrew sticks in the crop of
the P. & D.—Lend City Enterprise.
That's just where you make the mistake.
The Press and Dakotaian writes often
and ably on Mr. Pettigrew as a man and
as the coming delegate.—Sioux Fall*
Times. The Enterprise, being demo
cratic, doubtless has a wish which is
father to the thought.
How are you, Old Winter? Hope
you haven't come to stay. Last night
the atmosphere presented a peculiarly
"hazy appearance, and as the weather
wise cast their eyes in the direction of
the moon, around which there was a
brilliant circle, they confidently pre
dicted a "spell of weather." Their pre
dictions havo been verified, for this
morning the sky was overcast with
sombre clouds, and at about nine o'clook
a lively snowstorm _set from the
northwest, which continued all day and
covered the ground with a wintry mantle
of white. It has been a gloomy, dismal
day, but we feel assured by past experi
ence that it will be followed by many
warm, pleasant ones before winter comes
to stay.
Vermillion Republican: We said last
week that the diphtheria epidemic here
had about spent its force. Another
week has happily confirmed our .belief.
There are no more severe cases, and but
few even of light ones. We believe the
general use, for the last couple of weeks,
by nearly every family here, of quinine
and whisky, in the proportion of sixty
grains to the pint (one to two teaspoon
fuls two or three times a day), has had
much to do in arresting the march of
this dread disease, and changing its
type for the better when it did occur.
Of course we may be mistaken in the
prophylactic virtue of this expedient,
but we think not. It is a harmless
measure, and if it proves to have any
influence in preventing, or even miti
gating, so terrible a scourge, it is of
inestimable value.
Sioux City Journal, 14: Superintend
ent Hall, of the Sioux City and Pacifio
road was at Neligh on Monday, and char
tered an outfit there with which to ex
plore the Keya Paha route for a line
Black Hillsward. The terminus of the
main Elkhorn track this season will not
be at O'Neil City, bnt from farther up
the valley. Our informant who is per
fectly reliable as well as familiar with
the country, says there is a good route
for a road over the country which Mr.
Hall will explore, viz: from the Elkhorn
valley across the low divide to
the mouth
of the Keya Paha up that stream to a
point near the head, and thence across
another divide to the head of the south
branch of White river. Beyond that
point our informant had never been over
the country, nor did he know what route
would be looked over by the Hall party.
Chief Engineer Ainsworth is reported to
have said that the company was getting
ready to build 100 miles of road next
year.

DAKOTA COURTS.
The IlusineH9 Transacted on the United
States Side of the Courts of Dakota.
General Hugh J. Campbell, United
States attorney for Dakota temtory,
has just completed his report to the de
partment at Washington ot the business
transacted on the United States side of
the courts of the territory, and from it
we extract the following:
Total number of civil suits for the
fiscal year of 1880 were seven, in all of
which judgments were rendered for the
United States. The aggregate of these
judgments amounted to $4,022.83.
The total number of criminal suits
pending during the same period was
three hundred and tlurty-two. Of this
number one hundred and seven were
tried during the year, the trials resulting
in ninety-one convictions and sixteen
acquittals.
The record of the year's transactions
makes a good showing, and indicates
that the federal interests in the Dakota
courts have been skillfully and intelli
gently managed by Gen. Campbell.

A~NEWLAND LAW?
By IWiich Homesteads Kntered Prior to
June loth, 1880, Can be Paid For at the
Bate of $1.25 per Acre.
In June last congress passed a law
providing that persons who had prior to
June 15,1880, entered land under the
homesteadjlaw,could pay for the same at
the rate of $1.25 per acre and acquire title
thereto without the required five years
residence or improvement necessary un
der the old law. This system of proving
up or payment for the land amounts to
a purchase of the land at the minimum
price, less the filing fees of $24, making
the expense of one hundred and sixty
acres S186.
This law was doubtless passed in the
interest of homesteaders on the pine
lands of Minnesota and Wisconsin,and is
unjust and oppressive. It applies only
to entries made prior to June 15, 1880,
and gives all the wild cat claimants an
opportunity to obtain lands which is de
nied to actual, bona fide claimants who
have made their entries since that date.
The law is a bad one, and should be re
pealed.
