Death of j. w. Appleton.

Several months ago we received
word from J. w. Appleton, of the
death of John Letter, his brother-in-
law and business partner, and now
we learn from Henry Nearman, of
this city, a brother-in-law Of both
these gentlemen, of the death of Mr.,
Appleton. Messrs. Letter and APP
pleton were both formerly residents
of this county, and removed to
Black Creek, Wisconsin, seven or
eight years ago, and engaged in the
milling and lumber business. They
have both been subscribers of the
COURIER for the past ten years and
we have been pleased to learn from
business correspondence with them
during that time of their success in
business. Their families have the
sympathy of a large number of old
friends in this city and vicinity.

from the various land offices of Da-
kota give an aggregate Of $4,000
homestead and preemption entries
in Dakota during the year 1882, not
counting the Black Hills land dis
trict from which we have no returns.
Counting three persons to each en-
try, which is an exceedingly low es-
innate, and we have the evidence of
increase in Dakota's population dur
ing 1882 of $4,000, or in round num-
bers, with a light estimate for the
the Black Hills district, an accession
of 100000 to our numbers in a sim
gle year. The census of June, 1880
gave us. a population of $4,000.
The intervening eighteen months
prior to Jan 1st, 1882, witnessed the
arrival of 100000 new residents, as
has been previously demonstrated.
The grand total therefore is 1856 5000.
Dakota is growing.

Sioux City Jmnal:-O. 0. Eng
fish of Avoca, was in town yester-
day, on his way to his sheep ranch
in the Washington bills, Oak. He
is of the opinion that the section of
country mentioned is the boss place
for sheep. The wolves. though nu.

being frightened away by dogs and
the black sheep. Mr.. English tells
for a fact that his men have seer the
wolves run away at sight of black
sheep, and keep running, too, until
they were out of sight. The worst
pest is the wild oats, but this, ms it
is the first grass hat shows green,
can be kept grazed down, and by
burning the prairie in the spring can
be run out entirely.
