A Farmers Protest.
Here is a pro est from a small farmer
CLEVELAND, KAN, January 6, 1888.
Sir Men with large herds
and with extended means are fencing in
large tracts of Government land, thereby
excluding and preventing the small settlers
with small herds or with only few milk
COWS from having the benefit of the public
domain to Craze them upon.
AL Government lands the public do
MAIN is as much one mans as anothers,
and don't think it is right for one man
because he has more money than another,
TO be allowed to have the exclusive use OF
said lands because of being able to fence
the same. This feacing Of the Government
land is getting to be and soon will be great
grievance to the poor settler. And now l
ask you cannot it be stopped?
Myself and four sons have settled in this
county on little spring branch, four miles
north of the Chicaskis river. But very little
of the land down the spring branch between
here and the river bottom Is worth anything
for cultivation,it being rough and too sandy,
We have pioneered to a considerable ex-
tent, and suffered great many privaions
from settling in q new country poor, but
with wish to gradually work ourselves in
to stock Of cattle, Of which We have
few, and our only grazing ground is down
said spring branch, between US and the
river, all government land, but which is
likely to be taken from US by Q company
fencing the whole thing, which we don't
like, you may bet.
JOHN Willis AND Sons.
Another Kansas man writes:
am credibly informed that there are
men living along the southern line OF our
State owning from 5000 to 10000 cattle
that never have paid one cent of taxes TO
the State, neither have they Paid to the In
dian agents.
In the name of God, ask, is this Re
publican form of government, when the
poor man, with barely enough to keep soul
and body together and pay for his l6O acres
of land, must pay the taxes OF the country
and the cattle kings go free? If go, l was
a big fool to spend three years OF my life
defend such country

so your correspondent takes it upon himself
to send in a few items: Within the next
week the survey of the Redfeld, Bis
marck & Northern railroad will be begun.
This line of road, when eventually COM
pleted, will traverse one of the richest and
best sections of Dakota, and will tend
greatly to enhance Redfeld's prospects as a
future great railroad center. Robert
Park, 60 years Of age, a resident of the
northern section of this county, was ar
rested this week and bound over to await
the action of the grand jury, ON charge of
murder by poisoning, preferred against him
by his ,son-in-law, young man named
Round. The old man is accused of having
put strychnine in bottle of brandy, with a
deliberate intention of poisoning the young
man. He almost succeeded in his design,
as Rounds took liberal dose, and his life
was saved only by the prompt use of
emetics. Family troubles are supposed to
have prompted the act. F.. .Redfield will eel
citrate the Fourth in the good old-fashioned
way, with base ball game, sham battle

cue the prominent feature of the days en-
tertainment. On Wednesday next the
Republicans of the county will hold con-
vention to nominate delegates to the Sioux
Falls constitutional convention. In Demo
cratic circles but little interest is being

sition is to allow the Republicans to carry
