SHE Is MOVING.

Woman all over the land, as if
touched by the electric shock of Gods
providence, has awakened from an
apathetic state, and enlisted in the
moral suasion crusade against her life
long foe, the destroyer of her hopes
and the enemy of all she loves dearest
s,d best. Her influence is cast for
tataI abstinence. We hope the ladies

OVER THE OCEAN.

The English press is congratulating
the country on the readiness with
which the English reserves are focking
to the rendezvous.
The London News says that every
additional warlike preparation marks
a step nearer war, and is so considered
abroad and at home.
A joint commission has been sent to
peacefully settle the troubles between
the Russian troops and armed Mussel-
mans in the Balkans.
Russia asks Germany to guarantee
the present line of demarkation pend
ing negotiations, fearing that the Turk
will surrender to the English the forts
on the Bosphorus.
Where is the government going to
land the native troops ordered to en-
bark from India? asks the English
press The London News adds that
England is being blindly led by her
rulers to an appointed end.
The Journal de St. Petersburg says:
eff the British Cabinet really desires
peace, and at the same time expects
greater advantages for England by
intimidating Russia, it is playing a
dangerous game, which will lead not
to peace but to war"
The Mussulman instruction in the
Balkans covers ten thousand square
miles, and is of a serious nature it is
said, brought on by the cruel oppres-
sions Of the RussO-Bulgarian regime.
The Russians lost FIVE hundred men in
an engagement with the rebels on the
9Th instant.

tinguished gentleman is now promi-
nently before the people as a candidate
for scat OH the Supreme Bench OF

arc most earnest in pressing his claims
for that honorable position. His in

cminently high, while his public record
and private worth are of the purest
type.

Women as Journalists.
From the Horce.ter Gazeste.

Nearly all the Philadelphia news
papers employ women as writers on
the editorial staff, or as correspondents.
There are many women busted over
the country in similar occupations and
with some degree of success. The
difficulty in the way of this kind of
employment for woman is by no
means lack of intelligence or educa-
ton. 1t is rather the absence of that
sense of responsibility which keeps
men within bounds and a general lack
of interest in and appreciation of cur
rent political events. Capacity OF
newspaper work, we should say, would
be Il rare exception in the sex, and We
say this not in disparagement, but to
prevent the encouragement of hopes
likely to prove entirely fruitless.

Sioux Falls, a distance Of Is miles
now there is one on nearly every quar-
ter section. We had to go there for
our mail, blacksmithing, shopping, &C.,
now we have a post Office, blacksmith
shop, school and church right in the
neighborhood.
-Four years ago there was only one
grist mill in the county that was with
out dam, as the high water that
spring had carried out every dam on
the Souix except one near the mouth,
and -four was worth five dollars per
hundred. Now there are six with fif-
teen run Of stone. Then the assessed
valuation of the county was about
100000, now it is $1,500,000. We
have two good bridges across the
Sioux in the county that cost about
$4,000, built by subscription, those
that had it to spare, give, those that
did not, had nothing to pay.
The people are bent on running the
public affairs as cheaply as possible.
The failure of crops in IA and TO run
the county in debt little by some not
paying their taxes, it amounts to $4,000,
the debt was funded last winter. The
enormous crops the past year have
caused delinquents to come forward
and the Treasurer's report shows money
enough to run the county another year
and pay good share Of the indebtness,
q very favorable showing to some
counties Of western Iowa where they
have county Indebtedness from $780,
600, to 100000. The present law al
lows a 480 acre Of government land by
paying the government 1921. If any
one should want any further informa-
ton, I should be pleased to answer.

MAhCd 0UII, 10 10.
EDITOR TELEGRAPH: - Allow me,
through your columns, to say to those
that are wanting homes in the West,
to come to Minnehaha County, Dakota.
This county lies on the eastern border
of the Territory and west Of the south
ern part Of Minnesota, bordering also
on the northwestern part Of Iowa.
The Big Sioux River runs with q
ZigZag course through the county from
north to south, passing over a.rocky
ledge at Sioux Falls, giving 101 feet
fall in the distanse of half mile.
Minnehaha county is well watered by
it's numerous lakes and the creeks
which are outlets. Considerable tim
Der borders on the Big Sioux and Split
Rock Rivers. The surface is undulat-
ing and the soil fertile.
The county seat of Minnehaha coun-
ty is at Sioux Falls, which is finely
located on the Big Sioux river at the
great falls, Which is said to be the best
water power in the northwest.
Another favorable feature for the
future Of this county is the great abund-
ance of an excellent quality Of build
ing stone to be found in quarries
throughout the county.
There are four Touring mills in the
county; two at Sioux Falls, one at Dell
Rapids in the north, west part Of the
county, one on the Split Rock in the
eastern part Of the county, and the
fifth one is under construction in the
northeast part Of the county.
RAILROAD.
The present terminus of the Worth
ington and Sioux Falls railroad is but
four miles from the east line of our
county, and will be extended to Sioux
Falls in time to carry off the crop Of
1878. There is some Government land
to be had in the western part Of the
county yet. But those preferring to
buy in the settlement where they can
have the advantages of school and
railroad at once can be accommodated
in the eastern part of the county at
from three to five dollars per acre.
