The wall of prejudice thay, has kept

men and lebarrel them from sharing

times are developing strong women.

accomplishments ere no longer in

courage and principle are developing
heroines. Women who can aud dare

/. Press and Dakotaian: The decision
Of the Chicago & Northwestern to push
its Sioux City & Pacific division into
the Black Hills is evidenced by q grad
ing contract just let. One hundred
miles OF road is to be graded without
delay northward from White river into
Dakota and at least forty-6ye miles Of
the eNtention will be ironed and opera
ted this season. This will leave the
track when the falls work. is completed
within about sixty miles of Rapid City
ana the grade eight miles from that
point. The survey does not contem-
plate the construction Of the line to
Rapid City, the route passing some
three miles from that prospective me-
tropolis. This will build up a rival
town and Rapid will be the sufferer.
The intention Of the company seems to
be to enter the Hills by the Box Elder
creek pass, instead Of by Rapid creek,
natures supposed highway for an iron
track. The Box Elder route would
carry the road to Lead City, whence it
could be run down the gulch to Dead
wood. The construction Of this line
by the Northwestern corporation de-
stroys the hope of immediate rail con-
nection between Pierre and the Hills.
The Sioux reservation still stands as a
barrier to western progress from that
point. BY the southwark movement
reservation is t1anked and a good win
ter line is secured via the Blair bridge.
by the construction OF thirty miles of
track to fill the gap between here and
harrington, Yankton could secure con-
nection with this Black Hills road, and
recent railroad movements point tothe
probability that this link connecting
the two systems Will eventually be

Three years ago while fishing in the
Jim river, rear George Arnold's Cornell
ranchs we met a stranger who gave his
name as Murdoch Mckenzie. His brief
story. was so full of woe, the mans case,
saving the boils, was ALMOST like the
afflicted Jobs. His productive farm
n uncomfortable home'nearM Monmouth,
ILL.,. had been taken from him by fore
closure of mortgage He came to Da-
kota with some cattle and horses.
Thinking to %winter'ttsem more easily,
he removed the stock from his claim
in Miner county, to Chamberlain. But
the winter proved to be phenominally
severe, because OF drifting Snow, and
every horned beast persisted. The
horses We're brought back alive, but a
freshet in the Jim, swept off every one.
When we met him, his parents and his
own family-his wife we think totally
hlind-all crowded into adugout in the
hillside. The sturdy Scotch nature
would not yield, and he was fully con-
WINGED that he would conquer another
competency. This man'sfate has been
the subject of painful reflection to us,
for seldom had we seen such suffering
sustained by so much patience and for
titude. Imagine with what pleasure
we noticed the following paragraph in
the Forestburgh Advocate: "Last week
Murdoch Mckenzie, a prominent stock
man Of Il county, sold % head of g.
year old steers weighing about 1900
pounds each, which brought him the
snug little sum Of about $S1,OOO."-

F1andreau Herald: A. sensible paper
says there are people in nearly all
towns who do not support their local
newspaper because they can get a city
weekly cheaper, or that they take SO
many now that they haven't time to
read them all" How often do the city
weeklies speak Of the improvements
made by our citizens: How often dc
they speak OF improvements that VIII
be advantageous to all? How often do
they speak good word for the business
men Of the town? In fact how much
interest do these city papers and the
other papers they take, although they
do not have time to read them, in the
growth, business and general advance
ment Of our town? What advantage
are these papers to those who "hayen't
time to read them? If they are to
build fires with, put on shelves or use
for bustles, it would be much cheaper
to buy old papers at some newspaper
office. When there are festivals, excur-
sions and numerous other schemes for
any OF our societies, how much aid do
these city Weeklies give toward help
ing along these enterprises?
