The MINNEAPOLIS Tribune saws: If

The Minneapolis Tribune says: If
the rush of Dakotaians to Washing
ton keeps up, the railroads will have
to add their rolling stock. One or
two delegations, small in number,
have been sent through in special
palace cars, but when 1t comes to
naming delegations of one or two
hundred at a meeting, it looks as
though some Of them will be glad to
get box cars before they get to Wash
iugton. At present, however, we
see no way Of stopping the rush to
the capital, and the railroads viii
have to look ont for themselves.

Out Of His Head.

The fireman on the west bound train
named Mike Kearney, went out Of dis
head yesterday. He lad been sick with
tha Red river fever and this was his first
trip out. When he reached here he
showed signs of 1t but it was not until he
arrived at Alsop that he became unman-
ageable. Here he jumped from tho On.
gine and ran out On the prairie. The
passenger train proceeded ON without him
and the men on q freight carralled him
and brought hun to jamestown where lie
was kept IN the cooler until this afternoon
when he was taken to Fargo by John
Moore. He probably went to work too
soon, and more rest win bring him out all
right.

Dakota Farms as an Investment for Non.
Resident Capitalists.

ED. AIERT.-Having received numerous
inquiries as to whether consider 1t will
pay nonresident investors to purchase
Dakota lands with view to opening up
farms, l would ask small space in your
columns to reply, giving only figures from
my own personal experience on section 81,
town 40, range Ga, for the past year,
which we al know and admit, that owing
to the severe drouth, lasting from the last
of May until the first of August, was not
a fair average year for this county This
section was bought by James Thompson,
ESD, of Davenport, Iowa, abont June 1st,
1880, for 81 per acre, and 125 acres broken
that season for So per acre, Not having
enough land of my own broken, l took
this land of Mr.. 7. to farm on the shares,
and in Nov. 1881, sent him $614 as his
share of the net proceeds Of the crop, he
never having seen the land but once after
purchasing, nor paying an agent ore cent
to look after il for him. Let us now see
how the figures stand:
125 acres of land at 81 per acre. $500 90
Breaking same at So per acre. -. 375 90
Taxes s............. ...'........::.. y w
Total .................... SS1 90
And the proceeds of crop, S641 gives Mr.
Thompson fraction over 6S per cent on
his investment for year and months, or
10 per cent. per annum, from the date Of
his investment. And as this 5 months
extra time would not tigara on ruture
crops, should the proceeds not be any
more than last year, he would have after
this, 6s per cent ;per annum, on his invest
ment, and further had this wheat not been
contracted early, but held for the highest
price paid here last fall, Mr. r. would have
received 81 per cent. on his investment,
This is only stating facts in regard to
capitalists purchasing lands here with
view to the profits from farming alone,
without any reference to the yearly in
crease in the value of the lands. Now as
matter of fact the entire section pur-
chased by Mr.. Thompson in 1880, for a
per acre, youit, sell to-day readily for sl2
per acre, giving an additional profit of
nearly 200 per cent. Now a purchaser
to-day at sl2 per acre, after adding e3
per acre for breaking, would realize from
his third of the crop on the above basis
nearly 35 per cent. annual interest,
Yours truly,
JAMES. A. ATKINSON.

The commissioners Of Lawaence
county, D. T., last fall, reduced the
assessed valuation of the Homestake
Mining company's property in the
Black Hills, from about $4,00o.o0O
to less than half that amount. Now
the district attorney Of that judicial
circuit has taken an appeal from the
action of the commissioners, and this
proceeding is very apt to increase
the distress Of the people in that
county. 1t will create trouble parti.
cularIy among the schools. The
Lead City Tribune, whose editor is
the county superintendent Of ofschools,
says many Of these institutions of
learning will be compelled to close,
and that some have already bee
closed.

Moorhead Argonaut: AS the
Northern Pacific pushes its way on
through the west there are new
beauties and features of interest
constantly being discovered. The
agricultural resources which at one
time were thought to be almost
worthless, have proven ahead of the
world, and now the richness of the
mineral kingdom is adding lustre to
that glory. What with stock-raising
aud one or two other small matters,
the Northern Pacific will yet be
quite q road.
