ANOTHER COUNTY SEAT WAR

The latest county seat war is in Roberto
county, between the towns of Traverse
and Wilmot, growing out Of the recent
election. An Inter Ocean dispatch Of the
Goth contains the following: This morn
ing at Z o'clock an armed mob OF more
rounding country attacked the court
house. After breaking in every door of
the building they removed the county
safe. Not satisfied with the public prop
erty, they seized all tie private property
they could find. Before Atacking the
,urt house, number of men, armed With
Winchesteis, We're stationed ut the end OF
each street, and no one was permitted to
enter or leave town. Few OF the citizens
were up when the mob entered the town,
aud they we're in the court house before
anything could be done. The Sheriff at
tempted t. save the county property. but
W, halted at the muzzles of half a dozen
wInchesters. The Traverse men made
no resi- stance, knowing that no valuable
records were in the court house, and be-
sides resistance was useless, as the mob
had the advantage. They were well armed
and ready for any emergency, and had Il

ed been attacked some body would GER

mail carrier was wav-laid and the mail

principal damage to the county, rs all
other mortgages and deeds are safe.

all the private property it could find.
The crowd will be much surprised when

Upon arriving at Wilmot the safe and
records were placed in vault in the Office
of Justice Countryman, and are now
strongly guarded. The machinery of the
new county gov rnment was immediate IL
set in motion, and all the ne,e'S ~ pre-

Farmers Of Hand county may profitably
consider the following from the Sioux
Falls Press. concerning Minnehaha coun-
t. farmers:-It is n fact which can be YER
fed by the investigation of anybody, that
the farming element of the population in
this section was never in better condition
than it is today for living Independently,
respectfully and comfortably, They have
in debt than has be, the case for several
seasons, notwithstanding the low prices of
many classes Of produce. They hare ccas-
ed paying nearly EXCLUSIVES attention to
wheat. and have almost unanimously gone
into diversified operations. a

The town has enjoyed goo6 healthy
growth during the past year, but not so
large as the year previous. The.improve-
i:ents this year amount to about $50. 900.
while last year S7O,OOO was expended,
The principal improvements are, the
Catholic church in South Miller, the rink
and opera house, the court house building
and the fax mill, The number of bust
ness houses was increased this year by
five. The business buildings have more
than doubled in two years, and the resi-
dence more than trebled. The vote has
increased about 40 over last year and the
population about 40.
To form some idea of the amount Of
grain and other business done Mt Miller
we give the following figures; The total
amount OF freight cherges received at the
depot during the months Of September,

Miller points with genuine pride to a
$500 school house. There are some 2lO
pupils enrolled upon the books. The
school is divided into four grades and is
under the direction of n G. Som rs

IMMIGRATION

To the residents of the county who were
here early enough in the spring Of 1883
to witness the unparalleled immigration i'm
to this part of Dakota, and which con-
tinued through the entire year, the immi-
grafton of 1884 seems exceedingly small.
To those W no came after the rush Of
'83 the increase in population has seemed
quiet but continuous, as it really has been.
And in this manner may We expect to see
our increase in the future, The big
boom period Is over with and it is only
reasonable to suppose whatever increase
we have in the future will be in quiet
and steady addition to our population,
principally by men with money enough to
invest in and improve the cheap decided
lands. The southern part of Hand county
has received the larger portion of this
years immigration, and is now alInost as
well settled AS the north The addition of
new CO ners in mercantile pursuits this
year as compared to last bears about the
same proportion ~ that in land seekers.
The only,,thing calculated to give additional
impetus to immigration the coming year
would be division and admission, and the
opening of the Sioux reservnt on, with
the prospect of one or more railroads to
the Hills. But the division and admission
questions are already practically settled,
at least until another session Of CONGRESS,

the essential elements Of perfect securi-
ty, cannot of course be placed on the
market at its face value, because, as COM
pared with other securities. its time of
redemption is very indefinite, even though
it be considered certain. This deprecia-
compelled the payment of almost double
the cash vaIus Of properties purchased
for this county turing these first two
years, and the fact that under these ad-
verse circumstances the county comes out
mt the end of this term with only little
over $1,000 of her paper outstanding is
sufficient cause for the taxpayers to con-
slider the management of affairs in Hand
county has been more economical than
three fourths of the counties of South
Dakota. Especially is this so as compar-
ed with adjoining counties, which have
warrants outstanding from $40, 900 to $685.
900. For the benefit of those who may not
have seen the report as published before
we will again give the comparison between
ties. Beadle county has court house,
for which she has bonded Indebtedness
of $5a, 300. Hand has no court house, n0I
bonded debt. Beadle county has Il hoat-
ing indebtedness of $4,000, waile Hand
county's floating debt, or outstanding war
rants, amounts to less than $4,000 And
last but not least, is to ko considered the
fact that Beadle warrants have sold in
the market at 80 and 50 cents on the dollar
while Hand county warrants brought IL
and TO cents.
As we stated before SO we state again
most emphatically, Hand county has been
Well managed and is III a splendid con.
dition, and as proof the public 50 con
siders it, We have tAe very great pleasur,
OF informing the people OF the count,
that the report above SPOKEN OF, Mhicl
Was published about..4 weeks ago, sounded
the death knell to 40 per cent. depreciation
of our warrants, and We inGy r,asonabl,
hope never again to see them sell for 6
cents on the dollar.

Since the article on the 9th page dis
cussing the division and admission bill
WIS put in type. the Senate has passed
the bill. 1t divides the Territory on the
10th parallel, the south half to he admitted
as state and retain the naHss1aE DthsAa,
while north remains territory with the
name OF Lincoln. In all probability the
bill will be defeated in the House, as it's
passage in the Senate wns bv a strict
party vote, Republicans for and Demo-
Gratis against. OF course the saIne posi-
ton will be taken i the House, where the
Democrats are in the majority. Our only
hope is that tire Democrats may deem a
division substitute necessary to stop the
little racket being waited on the borean
zephyrs toward the U. S. fam the land of
the DakOtas.

Several weeks ago the PREssgave a
statement Of the condition of Hand coun-

terest to every citizen of the county, in
fact nothing could be of more Importance
to taxpayers, yet not single line con-
cerning this matter has appeared in any
of the other county papers, except in a
communication to the Gazette. The
PRESS loves comparison above all things
else, especially in Hand county news

C mber the hours OF wor being from I
last year being very much the same. The
fol owing report of the weather of Decsm-
Der, 1882, is taKen from the files OF the
PRESS and will show he similarity Of the
past three years:
1T is witt considerable timidity that
we undertake to give candid statement
Of our weather in this wonderful land Of
promise. The weather SO far has been
very even IN Temperature, with but little
snow. The entire fall Of snow mp to
date, dec. 81, is not over three inches.
The air is light and dry, and ordinary
winter weather is but little noticed. There
have been but two days when carpenters
could not work out DOORS"
Our first cold snap last year CAME on
December 18th, and this year on the 16.
In 1883 up to the 18th the thermometer
range from "a to 60 above Mt noon. This
year it was little cooler, from 20 TO 35
above. On the 18th inst. the murcury ran
as low au 30 below zero early in the morn.
ing. BY 10 o'clock a. m. it stood II de.
grees below. At Des Moines, Iowa the
same time it was 20 below. This was an
extremely cold day and yet II is fact that
men came to Miller ON business IA distance
of 20 miles and one gentleman 32 miles.
The air is light and dry SO that cold is not
SO hard to endure as in eastern localities
where the air is laden heavily with moiss
turs.
The following is the average daily tenn
perature of each week, commencing
September IL, 1884, and concluding De-
cember l6, 1884: SO 1, SAT, 58.5, 56.5. sos
43.7, 1872, 39.4, 34.l, 20.6, 1919, 3l.4, 1913.
These figures were taken from reports
given the Hur mite by Sargent Glenn. of
the S. Signal Office and are official, for
Beadle county and are practically so for
