FARGO is all torn up over its munici­pal affairs, and a great strife for mayor is going on, the candidates being C. A. Morton and W. A. Yerxa. The papers have all combined to put Morton in the ofiice, but the Courier .casts its solid vote for Mayor Yerxa, one of North Dakota's most enterprising men, and he will there­fore "get there."

THE Territorial Republican conven­tion has been called to meet at Huron, on AVednesday, April 23, 1884, at 2 o'clock, p. m., for the purpose of select­ing two delegates to the national con­vention. According to the call Griggs county will be entitled to four delegates. The county committee will probably is­sue a call at an early date.

THE papers are full of Cceur d' Alene mining excitement—rather too full for the general good, it is feared. The ap­pearance of these highly colored accounts of the wealth of the mines, accompanied by maps and routes of travel, suppests that several railroads have an interest in booming the camy. The Herald has before cautioned the public not to go wild over these discoveries, and it ad­heres to that advice. Remember Pike's Peak and Frazer River.—Chicago Her­ald.

THERE is beginning to be some activ­ity among the candidates for the Dakota governorship: The filing with the presi­dent of Oidway's angwer to the affidavits placed on file some time ago against him lias inspired his rivals to greater efforts. Col. Lounsbury is very active and daily increases the number of his indorsers. lie received a very strong letter recently from Senator Conger of Michigan en­dorsed by every member of the Michi­gan delegation. He also has the en­dorsement of Mr. Strait of Minnesota, and is promised that of Senator Sabin ^n his return to Washington.

LOGICALLY concludes an editorial of the Fargo Argus: gant supposition that one hundred thous­and men will come from the states east of Dakota and pass over its matchless prairies for the Cceur d' Alene mines. Only a fraction of them will stay there. A great number will recognize the fact that tlie wonderful soil of Dakota is the better source of wealth, and will return Jo reap the sure and certain rewards of energy and industry. Whatever there may be in the gold discoveries of the mountains west, Dakota can hardly fail to be greatly benefitted by the westward movement they will cause.

SOME unknown writer catches this glimpse of tlie migration that has Dako­ta for its goal this season: It is coming from tlie east and from tiie south, from the sunny shores of Italy and from the vine-clad slopes of France; from tlie crowded marts of England and from the oppression-cursed confines of the Emer­ald Isle; the sturdy German joins the rolling floods and the highlands and lowlands of Scotland pour their thous­ands into the grand Dakota.-bound phalanx. Even the almond-eyed, idol-

v'''worshiping Chinamen glances with his mil-bias eves in this direction, with envy in every look, and wishes he could come

"too. There is room enough for a)L Da­kota could almost camp the world upon

< its prairies and arable slopes, and tlie production of its incomparable soil would feed the universe.
