The undersigned having been aprointed' az tIxn.
by the Northern Pacific Railroad to sell their.
broad acres in Dakota, also their town property
at Dickinson, is now ready for business. I also
have the sale of w. S. Dickinson's town lots to-
.5ether with fifteen thousand acres Of choice
Railroad Lands, selected by him two years since,
which comprises many excellent sections near
town. These lands are now offered to actual
settlers and inlprovers at very low prices on
those who hayG looked over the town Of DiPkins
son and the large agricultural country that musS
center here, together with the fact that the
Northern Pacific Railroad have made this the
freight division terminus and now have over one
hundred men at work building stone and brick
yards involving an expenditure OF at least one
hundred thousand dollars this season, thereby
making it the Jamestown Of the Missouri Divis-
ion. It is needless for me to add that both to
settlers and spectators this town and the sur
rounding country presents opportu1ities rarely
down one dollar and take up two or three. The
town and surrounding country is filling up fast.
Nearly all the trades and professions are already
represented. a bank will soon be established.
Special Inducements are offered to any party
who will erect q hotel to cost about ten thousand
drug store in the Lawrence &c Collister block,
where he will be pleased to hear from Or meet
any parties on the anxious seat or those fully
converted TO the fact that Dickinson is to be
much the largest town between the Missouri
and Yellowstone rivers. SO TO all you eastern
capitals and cute western pioneers now is your
time 10 pull for the shore as after you have land
ed on the beautiful banks Of the Heart river at

Texas statesmen have hit upon plan
for relieving the United States treasury
of its surplus cash. Suit will brought
in the court OF claims at Washington to
recover the value of slaves emancipated
during the late war, the action to be
based chiefly on certain clauses OF the
state constitution which were approved
and Endorsed by congress at the time OF
the annexation, and which it is claimed
makes the government OF the United
States liable for slave property. The
plaintiff in the case was strong, very
pronounced union man during the war
and the proposed action is Endorsed and
will be pushed by some of the best law
yers in Texas.

1t has now pretty generally understood
that when Ordway organized seven or
eight counties, just prior to his depart
ure for Washington, he did not intend to
have those organizations take effect un-
til he is ready. The commissions were
issued to prevent Acting Governor Teller
from complying with the demands of
various counties, during Ordway's alb.
sence, and giving them local government.
The commissions were then placed in
the hands of the governors son and
there they remain. Upon the books Of
the secretary OF the territory these coun-
ties stand as organized counties, but the
commissions have not been delivered up.
As two commissioners in each county
have been carefully selected with view
to carrying out the designs of Ordway,
the majority will probably not agree to
take advantage of their appointments
and go ahead with county business, rely.
ing upon the official record to sustain
their acts. There is of course some de-
sign In holding back these commissions
and from our best information on the
subject, we believe it to be speculative

A Valuable Cow.

bulls and a Durham cow of the Louan

NJ. & D. Morrow, whose domestic herd
now shows the result of Introducing good

range, and one Messrs. NJ. & B. retained
at their ranch.
The COW, Rena, has dropped four
calves since arriving here. The first
three were heifers, and the last is a re-
markably fine bull that was christened
by Mr.. Craig, Of the ONley Ranch COM
pany, Duke Of Shonkin.
The first heifer has brought two calves,
and the second one calf, making a total
Of seven tLoroughbreds in three years
from one source. We take pleasure in
mentioning this as Miner d Boardman
were the first to bring Herd Book ami
mails into the county, and also as an
illustration of the profits in stock-breed-
ing when conducted under supervision.
We believe that any number of good
cows would yield proportionate returns

in a boat from Billings, Mont, to go to
Miles City via the Yellowstone river.
All went we'll for the first two days, and
on the third night they pulled their boat
up on an island for the night and began
to prepare supper. Attracted by their
fires two cowboys discovered the party
and watched them from the opposite
shore until they were sure that their
neighbors were asleep; then swimming
their ponies to the island, they proceeded
to rob them. One of the party awak-
ened by the noise, was about to give the
alarm, but was shot. This made it nee
essary to kill the other three, Which was
done in a very short time. The COW
