AhO 5lauihS VI bnt OdkOIa N OTtht Oousn-
ern R. r, is going on in Sergeant county,
and that section and the people think that
this Is the promise of real iron track.
The first flour ever made at Brookings was
produced last week, and they are justly
proud OF their fine mill, which will turn out
over 200 barrels day of the best bread ma
terial.
At Mitchell the telephone poles are being
removed from the streets. AS they have al
excellent daily paper 1t is thought that there
is no need of this new tangled distributor of
news
Rev. R. Fl. Batty of Wahpeton, OAK, if
he will listen, will hear call to the First
Congregational church at Plankinton, OAK,
issued ON the 26th. 1t is good people to
minister unto.
One of the papers suggests to young la
dies that they can come to Dakota and marry
husbands who will make no inquiry as to
their antecedents. Men are very mnch the
same here as elsewhere.
The Missouri river lands generally will
harvest the finest crops of which there is re-
cord this year owing to the frequent and
abundant rains. There can hardly be too
much rain on that soil.
Last week there was hail storm coming
from near Crookston, Mimi, across into
Dakota, in the Mimic region that nearly
destroyed many fields of wheat. 1t did more
damage than has been reported.
1t is claimed for the hot springs in the
Black Hills that remarkable cures have been
effected by them. When railroad commuui-
cation is had with that region it is probable
there will be a fashionable resort there.
Dunbar in Sargent county has very re-
spectacle newspaper, but it is stated in a
rival sheet in the rival town, that there are
three miles of Dunbar Still the paper
booms.
LaGrace in Campbell county is organizing
brass band, and the citizens are asking the
passage of an ordinance requiring it to go
over the Missouri to the Indian reservation
to practice. 1t is another illustration of
the cruelty of the white man to the Indian
W. 7. harrington, an old soldier and
prosperous farmer in Steele near Kidder
county, came to his death Saturday by i'm
prudently venturing into well that he had
been digging which was known to contain
gas. 1t was so feet deep and he was drawn
up about 30 feet when he was overcome and
| fell to the bottom.
A brewer from Marshalltown, Iowa. is at
Flandreau trying to arrange to move his
| brewery. The citizens want it to furnish a
market for their barley and other reasons
and will give liberal encouragement, but
there is some apprehension that when South
Dakota comes in as a state It will follow Iowa
on the temperance question,
| Picturesquely speaking the Bismarck Jour-
nal seeks to heap Goals of fire upon the heads
of the politicians in the south, who have not
loved the new seat of empire, by insisting
that they shall take control of the conven-
tons and arrange things to please them
selves The Journal, however, expects them
to see the propriety Of leaving the delegate
with the north.
Col. Steele, the noted pioneer and rustler
who is chief owner of numerous townsites
and vast area of land in the Missouri val
ley, and owns a hotel that would do credit to
St. Paul, has withdrawn his name from the
list oficongressional aspirants, but will cheer
fully accept seat in the Legislature. There
is little doubt of his election.
As Governor Pierce has relatives and
many old friends in Fargo, it is expected
that he will make that his headquarters un-
til he learnes for sure where the capital Of
the territory is. The Campbell county Corr
Ter anticipates that the immigration to Nc
Pherson, Mcintosh, Emmons and Campbell
counties this fall will be unprecedented In
the history of the settlement of Dakota.
The Glendale Leader has this mention OF
the short lines of road that will connect the
north and south roads: "The graders and
surveyors on the Dakota Midland have been
transferred from Hudson to the east end OF
the line, at Campbell, where the roadbed
will be put in shape for the iron as fast as
possible. Four miles of grading is completed
at Hudson, also some at Forman and Ran
som City.
The Webster Farmer gives this summary
EBAY county comes TO the front this year
with 40, 900 acres of wheat, that Will at least
average twenty bushels to the acre, making
the yield 10000 bushels. This is the mod
crate price of seventy-fve cents per bushel
would make the total value of wheat grown
IN this county foot up TO the snug little sum
of 5000, 900! Besides this, there are IL, 676
acres of oats, S67 acres of barley, and 524
acres Of corn
The Livingston Tribune says: Celestial
orange blossoms were In demand Mt Helena
last weak owing to the fact that Wong Tee
Tung and Wong Tell Sing were united in the
holy bonds of wedlock to the charming Miss
Toy Cum and the beautiful and bewitching
Miss Tong Hee. The two happy couples

edly will embrace trip to Alaska as the

A post of the G. A. r. was organized al

to Germany by the Northwestern Railroad
company, and captured the prize as tn
Largest pumpkin in the world" The nam
moth pumpkin was grown by Sanford Suits

1t is gratifying to learn from Col Loun
berry that although his journal has beef
afoat only two months it promises soon to b
self-sustaining, but the colonel can afford tc
be Indifferent to financial matters. He has
a D. o., town sites and boundless acres

weekly of the Montana slope.
There have been comparatively few ha

near Piankinton in Aurora county seems
have been the most serious In its effects G
