THIS YEARS CATTLE DRIVE.

THIS XEAH'S CAIIAE DAAVA.
The San Antonio correspondent of the Fl.
Worth journal ssye: As the bulk of the
young cattle have been contracted for the
next spring drive We can form . close esti'
mate of the total number to be driven. the
class of cattle and their destination. We e.
innate the total number of cattle to 60 on
the trail at go, 900 head, of which 100000
will be yearling steers, $1,000 two year old
steers, and $4,000 three year old steers and
female cattle. Of the total number driven
not more than 10000 will be on the open
market. At Dodge and Ogalalla the other
100000 have been or will be sold for ranch
purposes. The prices at which these cattle
have been contracted on the ranches whe:e
they start from varies from $40 so to $l2 so
for yearlings, and $14 so to SIG so for two
year old steers; the three year old steers rul-
ing at SIS to $40. The few female cattle to
be driven are nearly all for ranch purposes
and sold at fancy prices. The demand for
two year old steers has been largely in ex.
cess of the supply, and the entire crop will,
in all probability, be brought out by the
high prices offered. The demand for young
steers for ranch purposes in the state is great
er by one-half than it was last year. owing
to the fact that female cattle are not for sale.

The Princess Louise end the Marquis de
Lorne, the latter governor-general of the
dominion of Canada, passed over the road
in q special train on Friday last. The regal
outfit were under escort Of squad Of United
States soldiers. The imperial train were en-
rous to Canada from a trip to the Poetic
coast. No demol stration greeted the foreign
tourists upon their arrival at Dodge City.
We are particularly struck with the demo.
cratic tendency of the Dodge citizen. Mr..
Hays while president of the United States
visited Dodge twice, and was greeted no bet
ter than our governor would be. A distin-
guished party passed last week, and no hats
were doffed and no demonstration was ap-
parent. On the contrary, humble citizen
passes on his way west, number of his
friends 20 TO the depot to pay hin their re.
spects. Such is life in the far west.

The winds and dust remind us forcibly of
the season of 1879. It doesn't require any
vivid imagination to draw the recollection
to that memorable period. The winter was
exceedingly dry and winds and dust were
prevailing constantly. In the summer an
abundance of rain fell, and altogether the
eeason was favorable for grass and stock. The
spring of 1880 was also dry, rain falling in
sufficient quantities in May and the summer
months following. Reference is made to
these yearq, so that our readers may bring
their minds to the approach of similar
seasons, though We do not believe the future
droutbs will be as severe AZ those in the
years past. Last year Was not considered q
drouthy year, yet vegetation did not thrive,
though there was an abundance Of grass, and
the winter range il excellent. Feed crops
can be raised in what are termed drouthy
years. In this region the wheat prospects
are not promising. But the settlers are de.
voting attention to stock raising, and THU
industry il to be the pursuit of the country
Whether dry or wet. there il always ar
abundance of grass, and no alarm is felt or
account of the dry winds.

Dodge City is becoming evangelical, was
the substance of State item going on the
rounds of the Kansas press There was .
slight ruction in ecclesiastical and religious
circles last week, but the breeze has blown
over. This evangelical discord was the re-
suit of religious constipation brought on
by imperfect diet. The patient is getting
we'll. and promises to survive under new
discipline. Dodge needs constant ecclesias'
teal attention and care, though the deacons
and elders can safely manage the temporal
affairs. Rev Mr.. Buzzell is the only pro-
testant minister in the city, and he will soon
preach his farewell sermon. Two others,
claining that God specially called them to
invoke His Divine blessings upon the good
people of Dodge, have either subsidized or
gone hence. The people do not want them.
There is nc mistaking the judgment of the
people even UPON impious actions. The ap-
pointment is offered to Rev. N. G. Collins,
by the Baptists, and he will shortly remove
to this city, and round up the stray sheep
into the fold of the Lord. Mr.. Collins is an
excellent preacher, thoroughly practical in
bis views, and the people of Dodge like him
and appreciate his earnest efforts in the no.
bic work he is doing.

Quite an enthusiastic meeting in the
interest of navigation vas held in the school
house Saturday of last week. Maj. 81. B.
Vanvoorhis was chosen as chairman. J. w.
Gilbert, one of the principal movers in this
gigantic enterpris explained the object of the
meeting in few we'll chosen remarks, ii
being as follows, to ascertain the number of
acres there would be water taken for by those
living on the main line and convenient to
the main ditch and its laterals. The result
of the meeting was very satisfactory, there
being large attendance and nearly every
one signing for water to irrigate from ten to
fifty acres of land. A meeting for the same
purpose was held at Oferle the day previous,
the result of which was very satisfactory, the
number Of acres signed for in that town in.
Guiding the number signed for here would
make about IL, 900 acres. We consider this
doing exceedingly we'll for commencement,
the above named enterprise il worthy Of the
confederation of every citizen of the county
and it 10 hoped that they will give it the en-
couragsmsnt and support it 20 deservedly
merits.

to construct and equip a narrow

Ilwaco to point at or near Oyster
vile, on Shoalwater Bay, and from
there to some as yet undetermined
point on Gray's Harbor. The line
viii be twenty-seTen miles in length;

$1,000 a mile.
The value of this line TO Astoria is
manifest. Pacific and Chehalis coun-
ties are rapidly filling up with a fine
class Of immigration, men who come
to make permanent homes. The trade
of that country belongs to Astoria;
