Probably no portion of Dakota has advanced
more rapidly in material prosperity than that
portion of Steele county now embraced in Col
gate and Lake townships. 1t is barely five
years since the first hardy pioneer erected his
shack, yet the country to-day presents the ap-
pearance Of a county that had been settled
thirty or forty years back. The land has been
nearly all broken, good substantial dwellings
and barns are to be seen on every side, pas
lures have been inclosed, and nearly every
farmer has the nucleus of herd, and it is safe
to say that only few more years will find the
country largely devoted to stock. The farms
are generally small, embracing from quarter
to section, principally the former. The in
habitants are mostly Americans, large num-
ber hailng from the neighborhood Of Piper
City, Illinois, while New England, Michigan
and Wisconsin have each contributed its quota.
As rule they are intelligent, Industrious and
thrifty. They are strong believers in the moral
and elevating influences of the school, house,
and already number of neat and tasty houses
have been erected at convenient points. and
good schools are in operation. But If there is
one thing more than another that characterizes
the people living in the district we have named
1t is their genuine sociability. Having deter
mined to make Dakota their home, and re-
main here winter as we'll as summer, they
have organized their social clubs, their mite
societies, their aid societies, and not a week
has passed during the winter that has not wit
messed a gathering of the people for social en-
joyment. Sometimes these meetings are for
literary exercises, music and social converse,
at other times dancing is the object but which
ever it is, the people join in with zest and
each contributes his share to the enjoyment Of
the whole. The ladies (God bless them) are
always first and foremost in making these re-
unions enjoyable, and much Of their success is
due to tho dainty delicacies that are always
sure to be provided by fair hands to satisfy the
cravings Of the inner man, for we hold with
Owen Meridith-
We may live without poetry. music and art,
We may live without conscience, and live without
We may live without friends, we may live without
He may i've without BOOKS what is knowledge i but
grieving?
He may live without hope, what is hope but de.
ceiving?
He may i've without love, what is passion but
pining?
But where IS the man that can live without dining?
The PIONEER has many friends among the
good people of Lake and Colgate, and some OF
these days we propose to pack grip and take
"week OFF, and spend it in responding to the
many kind invites they have showered upon
us, and for which we here desire to return eur
thanks.

Its pages are filled with useful and instructive

to the Northwest and its articles on thorough
bred stock, accompanied by handsome engrav-

the farmers of Dakota and the Northwest in

CONVICTS ON STRIKE.
A Big Gang on n North Carolina Rail-
road to be Starved into SubmissfOn.

RALEIGH, n. c., June LEON the Pittsboro
railroad there is gang of seventy-three con-
victs employed. Yesterday sixty-seven Of these
convicts refused to work. The officer in charge
came here and had conference with the peni-
Tertiary authorities which resulted i'm his re-
turning with a large force of extra guards. The
convicts refused to come out OF the stockade or
work Instructions have been gwen to give no
food to those who refuse to come out and 20 to
work. 1t is a new and curious phase OF the con-
vict LABOR question. The men make no COM
decline to work. They are very closely guarded,
and IL is thought that the means taken to
bring them to their senses will prove success
ful. The ringieaders will be discovered and
punished.
