How a Cowboy Tailed a Steer.

In Kansas, during the days when the
cattle growing excitement ran high
there lived the mostsreckless, daredevil
set Of young men, writes Texas CORES
pondent to the Pittsburgh Dispatch, 1
have ever met. There were no old men
among them. A man Of forty was look
ed upon as patriarch, one who was enti-
tied to be q candidate for admission to
the home of the aged and infirm. These
young men rode up and down the Texas
cattle trail FROM Trinity river to the
Republican,. Whenin Texas, to gather
their herds, they rode furiously; they
hunted panthers; they coursed loafer
Olives; they ate mavericks without
number. and on the roundup they were
the most reckless Of all the hard-riding
men that gathered on tile southern
ranges. When they returned to Kansas
with their cattle they had many stories
about the skin Of the Texas cowboys to
relate. A young acquaintance Of mine
told me of the Texas cowboys failing
steers. that is, riding alongside a rum
ming steer and grasping his elevated tail,
and BY giving it a powerful lifting jerk
throwing the stser heels over head
much to his discontinue and subsequen,
rage. / smiled incredulously: Til

The monthly bulletin for September,
Of Lauren Dunlap, Commissioner of I'm
migration fur Dakota, is at hand and
reflects great credit on our worthy COM
missioner. The following is resume
of the Bulletin: Tho weather during
September was extremely good all over
Dakota, pleasant days being followed by
cool nights. Dakota has nine stations
for observing the weather and from
their reports it is learned that the mean
temperature for September was 57.26 de-
grees, the highest mean being 62.4 at
Yankton and the lowest, 53.1 at St. Vim
cent. The rainfall averaged 1.67 inch
,es, the highest being 4.80 at st. Vincent,
the lowest, II Of an inch at Bismarck.
Dakota's wheat yield for this year aver
ages 96, as against Is for Minnesota, 80
for Iowa and Il for Wisconsin. Dakota's
wheat crop this year is about 25,OOOCOO
bushels, out of a total yield for the
United States Of 35i,0CO,0C0 bushels.
The Sioux Falls convention, for framing
a constitution for Southern Dakota, is
highly praised, too highly in fact when
it comes to q question of supposed-to-
be neutral territorial officer advocating
a measure that he knows is strongly
opposed by atleast half the territory Of
which he is an officer. $4,000 has been
set aside for surveying 104 townships,
the work to done before July /, 1886.
The contracts are to be let by the Sur
veyor General of Dakota to the lowest
responsible bidders. There were 4,547,-
$50 acres Of land disposed of in Dakota
during the last year, ont of 20,113,G63
for the United States. The military en-
|canpmcnt at Fargo is spoken of and our
soldiers come in for large share Of
praise. There are Mt present about $50
miles of RAILROAD under construction. the
principal ones being the branch of the
Northwestern from ChadTOn toward the
Black Hills and the james river Valley
road, between jamestown and LaMoure.
tDakota's FIRST territorial fair was held at
Huron, beginning September 20, and
was a pronounced success. The stock
exhibit is especially praised for its
splendid showing. The report intimates
THAT about half the Sioux reservation
Twill be opened for settlement during the
1 coming session Of Congress, a conslm.
! nation deyoutly to be wished. Although
we could wish that Mr. Dunlap was moi
Iso partisan in his championship q
4 South Dakota, we can yet congratulate
the Territory at large on hayins
secured such an able and tireiess workel

Cattle Raising in Uruguay.

The republic Of Uruguay is devoting
itself to cattle raising on an extraordin-
ary wholesale scale. One Of the leading
raisers, recently interviewed, has given
the statistics. Eight million horned
cattle 20,000,C00 sheep, and 100000
horses constitute the stock in trade of
this model but extensive pastoral repub-
lie. The export returns show what a
heavy customer England continues to be.
She takes per cent. OF the total exports.
Brazil being debited to 90, France to II,
the United States to II, and all others to
the remaining 81. The country is most
prosperous and the tide of immigration
stealy; 20,22i last year. Women are,
however, in an alarming minority, and
constitute less than a quarter of the
arrivals. Four thousand vessels sailed
in the same year from the port OF Monte
rideo, with registered tonnage of over
l,5O0,000 Next come statistics about
the cattle. The average novillo, the
steer most used for fattening. gives $50
pounds of jerked beef, IS pounds Of salted
hide, and 40 pounds of grease, and besides
that there are the bone ash, the hair and
the horns. Business is done on such a
wholesale scale that everything is utiliz-
ed. All his constituent parts thus
counted up, and allowed for, the noyillo
brings in $50 a head, while the commits
sion for bringing to the packers, the cost
of killing and preparing for market is
about $4, leaving the net proceeds at SIG.
1t will be seen that such business as
this is necessarily extremely profitable.
In the slaughter houses, called "saia.
deros," SEQ cattle day are killed. A
lasso, one end of which is attached to a
steam winch, is thrown over the horns
of the victim and the winch set working
the beast is summarily hauled up
against a bridge upon which stands the

A curious reversal of 'tthe eternal fit
ness Of things" is seen in the fact that
there are in twenty-five states, OS,478
more women than men. The greatest
excess is in Massachusetts,, where there
are 66, ,205 more women. Iii all the Ter
ritories, except tue District of Columbia,
there is a large excess Of men. !: In Da-
kota there is the largest excess Of men,

OF all thed dismal failures ID the his
tory Of American politics, ciyil-seryice
reform is the dismallest. The true heart
and soul Of politics always has been, Is
and ever shall be, spoils. The Demo-
cratic party nor the Republican party
could either live through an election. If
party leaders could not promise a dis
trtbudon Of patronage. This is SO eyi-
dent that even a child can see 1t and
the spectacle Of one party trying to per-
petuate itself in power and the other
trying to regain power through the
transparent cry Of "civil-seryice reform
would be- amusing il It we're not dis
gusting.
