more lively than since the first rush Of i'm
migration to this county. The outfits are
of the best kind, good horses and nearly
every new owner brings more or less
stock, and the people are mostly those
who have disposed Of property east and
thus bring some means that will enable
them to obtain a good start, in the shape
of comfortable improvements
IT is rumored that arrangements have
been perfected for completing the extern

east to effect purchase Of sufficient
amount of iron to lay between Eden and
Bcloit
THE Survey of a line of the Milwau-
kec Road from Sheldon, south Of the one
run by School Section Creek, has reached
the Rock below Bellestield and will be
completed to the Sioux this week. At the
date of writing we have not been appriscil
Of its feasibility or how it compares with
the northern line.
1t is some qualification to see others
Of the same calling prosper if we are not
so fortunate. A visit to the establishments
Of the Pnntdgraph and IndeDendent 1T the
Falls, informed US of the fact that the eff
forts Of the managers of these publications
are duly appreciated, as 10Th are crowded
with work. 1t was our first meeting with
Messrs. Caldwell and Stahl of the Parsta-
grapn, and we found them as heretofore
represented, masters of their profession
aud genuine gentlemen.
The District Court at Sioux Falls will
probably continue during this week. The
past week only the civil cases were tried
The famous P1ntagraph case was first
called, the jury were out 4S hours and fail
ing to agree were dismissed, and new
trial ordered for this term, The most i'm,
portant case as to question of title was
that of Stevens vs.. Gale. and up to Satur-
day night was still pending 1t was the
title to a very valuable quarter section OF
land, Immediately adjoining Gales 'addi-
ton to Sioux Falls, and the legal point
raised upon the argument on Saturday by
Messrs. Parliman and Fettigrew, and
Tripp and Grigsby, presented some new
and intricate points, the settling of which
will be of Interest to the profession and
valuable to land owners,
