There are probably more people coming into
Steele county by way Of the wagon roads than
by rail this season. Emigrants arrive in
Hope almost daily, in squads Of from three 10
ten, with from six to 20 head of horses each,
with wagons loaded with household goods and
farming implements. The Number Of cars ar
irving with emigrants and stock cannot indi-
cate by one half at most the large additions
being made to Steele county's population this
spring, although the number Of new comers
by rail alone SO far this spring greatly exceeds
that Of 1883. This is worthy Of note by old
settlers

TREE-PLANTING.


A Proclamation by James II. Teller.
Secretary and Acting Governor OF
the Territory Of Dakota
The planting and cultivation Of trees in a
prairie country is subject Of so great impor-
tance as not to be easily oyerestimated. 1t
concerns not only the comfort but the materi-
al interests Of tho people, and appeals as well
to the desire for pecuniary gain as to love OF
the beautiful and ornamental. It is a subject
IN which all are alike interested and upon
which all may act.
The success OF arbOriculture in this territory
has already been demonstrated, and there is no
doubt that both individual and general inter
ests would be greatly benefited by the setting
apart and cultivation of a part of every farm in
the territory as a permanent plantation for the
raising OF timber. With this supplemented by
proper planting for ornament along the streets
and around the residences, school houses and
public grounds in both town and country, the
outlay would be returned ten-feld in the in
crease OF values and the added beauties Of our
farms and homes. While laying foundations
OF what is destined to be great and populous
commonwealth, we should not reject the help
which nature offers, to make it at the same time
both beautiful and rich.
AS is well known, in some states day is an
nually set apart to be devoted by the whole
people to the planting of trees, and in view Of
the advantage thus gained in securing united
effort to this end. with the hope of establishing
custom proved valuable in other communi-
ties, do earnestly recommend that the people
Of this territory observe Wednesday, the twen-
ty-third day Of April next, as Arbor-day, and
that 1t be devoted to the planting of trees,

In speaking Of the Portland Inter-O Ocean and
Mayville Eagle-Tim Tribune, the Hillsboro
Banner very naturally and truthfully says: 'sWe
can stand all the abuse such men can give, as
we are aware that they are not amenable to
law, as they are mere adventurers and like stray
dogs prepared to skip out at any time and leave
the country for their country's good"
An agent Of the Manitoba road, who has
been travelling through the east is reported to
say that immigration to North Dakota will be
larger this season than it was any year previous
to 1882. That the Scandinavian element will
be smaller than in former years, but this will
be offset by an increased immigration from
Great Britain and Germany,

Steele county should and undoubtedly will
send delegate to the Territorial Republican
convention at Huron on the 23d inst, and for
this purpose primaries should be held through
out the county tomorrow at 2 p. H., to elect
delegates to the county convention to be held
in the county building in Hope on the 18th
inst. The territorial convention, as stated two
weeks ago in these columns will elect dele
gates to the National Republican convention,
which c0nvenes in Chicago June Sd. To our
delegate, as well as all others from North Da-
kota at least, the PIONEER offers the name of
John f. Haggert as one of the best men to
represent our people at the National conven-
ton. Let the vote be unanimous for Haggart
If there is chance to select the two delegates
from North Dakota, Col. Lounsberry, Z. B.
Winship, E. St. Julian Cox or R. C. Cooper
would be able representatives.

lest persons after q newspaper arc those
who are too stingy TO subscribe. They
are always in waiting for the last paper,
and it is not two minutes on the own

pounces upon it. and never let's up
until the last line is read, and then per.
haps cast i. aside with the remark that
they could make better nc newspaper
