Tho Rush for Dakota.

The widest dreams of the most san
guine Dakota man are more than rea-
liZed by the unparalleled rush for the
public lands. Since the removal of the
SNOW blockades, every road into the ter
ritOry has been taxed to its full capacity
to carry the land-seekers and it has
been impossible to carry their effects in
anything like reasonable time. For
weeks after the opening of the roads,
there were freight blockades along the
lines. Hundreds Of freight cars have
gone heavily loaded with emigrant's
effects, into the territory every day for
more than eight weeks. One notable
feature of the immigration into south
ern Dakota is that four out of five who
enter are native born and the children
of native born persons. The foreigners
go mostly further north. The move
ment into southern Dakota this spring
is from the older states and not from
abroad-from the New England states,
from Ohio. Illinois, Wisconsin and
Michigan. The younger Americans
have only come to understand that the
public lands are being absorbed by
thrifty Germans, Norwegians, Swedes,
ETC., and that Dakota is about the last
chance. II is the gaIden spot, and all
who look across the rolling prairies are
enchanted.
The old folks are following "the
boys and SO Dakota is being filled with
Il splendid class of people. Most of
them are able to commence work at
once-they have means enough to build
houses and to live until there is Il crop
Some idea of the rush may be gathered
from the fact that there. is hardly any
unoccupied land within thirty to fifty
miles of Il railroad, whereas last fall it
was easy to obtain land within FIVE
miles of tlourishing towns.
Dakota is destined to be one of the
greatest states of the union. Thee

mate is not nearly as severe in winter
as is commonly believed. Throughout
southern Dakota the thermometer has
averaged ut least five degrees higher
than in Wisconsin, and the air is so dry
that the cold is not felt So much, There
is comparatively little snow beyond the
line. During the rest of the wear D;,-
kota is an Eden. 1t is surprising that
there has been SO little speculation in
the public lands in this territory. The
explanation is that actual settlers are
so eager for land that the spevulators
have little chance for it. 1t is hard to
find a section within Il dozen miles OF Il
railroad that has not frlm twenty to Il
hundred acres broken and much of it
seeded. The sanguine settler, and
every settler is sanguine, fears none of
the usual disasters he believes Dakota
will always be exempt from danger by
grasshoppers, for Indians tell him grass
hoppers never invaded Dakota 1t is
reasonable to suppose that the territory
will go through the usual western ex-
pcriencc-that it will have its boom
and reaction, its backscts and its fail
ures-but Dakota land will always be
valuable and will always be us produc-
tive as any land the sun shines on. II
is a pity that the young that are wear
ing out their lives on small salary
could not all be planted on the rich
lands which the government gives
away. 1t is believed that before thc
summer is over every foot of land east
of the Missouri river in Dakota will bt
taken by settlers. HJiaC0ukce Sentinel

Tie following explanation of the
cause of the immense tide of immigra-
tion is truthfully explained in the Gin
cinnati Times:
The rapid development Of Dakota,
that is the wonder Of the day, is more
largely due to the newspapers of the
territory than any other cause. A town
Is scarcely mapped out before weekly
paper is established, and the population
of Il thousand souls is sometimes con-
sidered sufficient to justify the publica-
tion of daily. So generally are the
benefits from newspaper appreciated
that the merchants often offer printer
inducements by way of a bonus or sub
scription for a certain number of copies
to start a paper and in all cases they
liberally patroniZe the printing offices.
The extent to which Dakota merchants
advertise in the newspapers and by cir
culars is astonishing. A Dakota town
whose newspaper is not literally filed
with advertisements is considered dying
or dead, and not a desirable place for an
cnterprising and energetic man to To-
'tc.
feature of some of the Dakota
rs is the "boom' editions, which
sued every few months, and which
sent all over the country, and
70 Europe, have given every town
e territory a wide reputation. 1t
t to be supposed that the news.
rpublishers are the wealthy men
,akota. They SOW and others reap,
put theirs is labor of love, and usually
it is enough if they are able to afford
their families comfortable living

None of the lands Of Dakota have
