DAKOTA.

Condensed from Yankton Press Januaryl
In the spring of 1857 the interior de-
partment, desiring to make treaty with
the fankton Indians by which their pos
sessions in what is now southern Dakota
territory should be ceded to the govern
ment, sent A. S. Fl. White, an attachee
of the Indian bureau, to visit the Indians
and induce them to visit Washington and
negotiate treaty. Mr.. White mission
was unsuccessful, the Indians being averse
to parting with their lands, and he re-
turned to Washing ton to report the failure
of his undertaking. In the fall of the
same year the department requested Cap
tain John B. S. Todd, then ofthe firm of
Frost, Todd & Co., post suffers at Fort
Randall, to make an effort to induce the
chiefs of the Yanktons to 20 to Washing
ton and make treaty. Securing the CO.
operation OF Charles F. Picotte, who had
great influence with the In,lians, and who
still resides at the Yankton agency, Gen.
Todd at once succeeded in his enterprise
and early in the winter of 1857 started for
Washington with the Yankton chiefs ac-
companied by Mr.. Picotte as Interpreter.
On the 10th of April, 1858, treaty was
made with these Indians by which they
coded to the United States all the lands
then owned, possessed or claimed by them,
wherever situated, Except four hundred
thousand acres, embracing their present
reservation,) and described as follows: Be-
ginning at the mouth of the Te- han-kas-an-
data or Calumet or Big Sioux river
thence up the Missouri river to the mouth
OF the Pa-hah- -wa-kan or East Medicine

its entire length. It is the great trunk
line from the east to the Missouri river,
or the Black Hills. We also have north
and south line, operated by the same
company which extends from Sioux Falls
to Sioux City, and also passes through the
entire county.
PRICE OF LAND.
There is no government land, and farm
ing lands are not in the market for 1925
per acre. There are no more desirable
locations where good farms can be bought
for less money than this county. Our
land agents ask no fancy prices, and every
day honest men with money and good
sense are investing in our lands, and are
improving them and calculate to make
this their future home.
CLIMATE
The climate is all that could be asked
for or be desired. Everything grows and
natures that the farmer puts into the
soil. 1t is dry and clear and we can say it
is no colder here than you will experience
in eastern Iowa.
The soil cannot be surpassed for rich
ness and mellowness. There is very little
choice of farms in the county, as the soil
is everywhere good. There is no section
of country in the northwest where the soil
is more uniform in its nature than here.
STOCK RAISING
is rapidly becoming the principal branch
of business with cur farmers. Grass
grows very luxuriantly and protusely and
the cattle become fat upon it. 1t grows
very thick and to the height of clover or
timothy, and can be put up for about 81
per ton. Corn is becoming great staple
article, and the cattle buyer will give you
the marke price at your very door. The
great Importance and profit OF hog raising
are attracting marked attention. They
are not liable to cholera, which has been
such serious drawback in other localities.
They do we'll on the prairie grass pasture,
but hog pastures are very cheaply made
by sowing clover seed upon the prairie
without blowing. When forty or fifty
bushels of corn can be raised upon the sod
the first year, what business could pay bet
ter than this, considering the trifling out
lay required for start2
DAIRYING.
Lincoln county is an agricultural county
in every sense of the word. The grass
grows prolific and heavy. The Lincoln
county creamery association, an organiza-
ton composed of farmers, started a cream
cry last spring, and is supported from the
products of COWS owned by farmers resid-
ing in four townships This has proven a
paying investment, butter commanding 26
cents per pound, and located as we are,
with good railroad facilities, there is big
demand for butter. Drouth and storms
may come and go, but the dairying bust
ness is not affected, therefore the farmer
is running no chances. Go where you

and arrived in the territory early IN July.
He at once set to work, erected buildings
ON the site of the presen tageney and be-
fore winter set in had all the lndiaus To-
Gated upon the reservation.
As soon as the Indians were removed
settlers began to come into the territory
locating principally on Big Sioux Point,
at Elk Point, Vermillion and Yankton.
On the sth day of November, 1889, the
settlers at Yankton held meeting, with
D. T. Bramble as chairman and NJ. K.
Armstrong secretary, and passed me-
mortal asking congress to organize the ter
rtory. A similar meeting was held at
Vermillion on the 9th of the same month
at which j. A. Denton presided, and
James McHenry was secretary.
About the same time that the settle
ments we're made on the Missouri river
company of gentleman from Minnesota
aid Dubuque, Iowa, commenced settle
ment at Sioux Falls, and organized a pro-
visional government, with governor and
other executive and judicial officers, aleg-
islative assembly and elected a delegate
to congress. On the 18th of July, 1859,
newspaper called the Dakota Democrat,
with S. j. Albright as editor was started
at Sioux Falls by this colony, the publica-
ton of which was continued, although
somewhat irregularly, until about the time
of the organization of the territory,

February, and approved by President
Buchanan on the I'd day of March, 1861.

A Brief Sketch Of = Lively Lincoln
County Town-ImprOvemen for
IsS3-Freight Receipts.
Perry township, in which Lennos is To-
Gated, was first settled in 1874, contains
now population of over 500 inhabitants
and, at least twenty more families will ar
rive this winter and settle upon their
farms lately purchased. Land is -ssadvanc-
ing in value, yet there are a nunber of
choice pieces of land for sale at'low fig
ures.
Lennox is located on the Iowa and "a
kota division of the Chicago, Milwau! ice
and st. Paul railway, about eighteen
miles west of Canton, in the center of an
excellent farming district. Mercantile
business is represented in every: branch,
except clothing, for which there Is good
opening. Mechanics in almost any trade
should give Lennox call before locating.
A good brickmaker is especially needed.
A. creamery would be success, if located
at that point. There are now in the town
ship 45O COWS, and in the surrounding
country within less than ten miles from
town, 800 more. 4

Eden township, in which Eden is loca-

from Canton. 1t is purely an agricultural
district, and the farming lands are consid-
cred as goed as can be found in the Sioux
valley. The Big Sioux river is the cast
ern boundary, thus affording a splendid
drainage.
The town OF Eden is situated on the
Sioux, and has population of about 300.
It has the the choice of two lines of rail
road, the Sioux City and Dakota and
Rock Valley divisions of the Chicago,
Milwaukee aud St. Paul railway, which
affords splendid outlet for the farmers

HE Indianapolis Sentinel saws ::
As illustrating some of the remarka-
bic laws of this State on the subject
OF divorce, the Hon. Thaddeus P.
Rollins yesterday related story Of
a divorce which he procured in Cass
county some years since before Judge
Chase. The allegations in the com
plant were drunkenness and general
worthlessness of the defendant.
When the case came on a witness was
called to prove the character and
habits of the defendant. Mr.. Rollins
asked him the question: do you
know Mr.. -, the defendant in this
case, Mr.. Baird?' The answer was
in the affirmative. At this poin
Judge Chase looked up and said:
Mr.. Baird, tell me ii that man is the
same Mr.. who was in Company
& of the - Indiana Regiment dur
ing the was ''The same man,
Judge" was the answer .You need
so no further, Mr.. Rollins" said the
Judge, ''the divorce is granted" and
judgement was entered accordingly
for the plaintiff. After Court ad-
iourned the Judfe was joked about
the hasty entry of the judgment, re-
fsrring to the fact that no evidence
had been introduced into the case.
"Why. gentlemen, said his Honor,
Il know that fellow He was in my
company during the war, and 1 will
never let a woman live with him if
she asks me for a divorce l know
him better than any witness that can
be brought here"

''HUMBERr, of Ialy, it is said, finds
the cares and duties of kingship SO
burdensome that he would resign
his crown with feelings more of relief
than of regret; albeit he is really
popular and well esteemed among
his subjects. ''H they only knew
how little 1 care for my kingship!
he exclaimed not long ago, and then
added Che was talking with a conf
Dental friend: ''I'll tell you what
they ought to make of me, sergeant
of the National Guard. / think 1
would make very good sergeant,
for I certainly know the duties of .

for royalty that he is educating his
son in such a manner as to prepare
him for any turn of fortune, whether
it be to win or lose q crown"
