The Wheat Crop in Taylor County

ABILENE. Dee. l5.--While the re.
port is true in regard to the wheat dy-
ing in many places, it is found that the
cause is wholly attributable TO the i'm.
perfect manner in which the large area
of ground was prepared. In no in
stance where deep blowing has been
done and the seed carefully sown is
there any failure OF the seed to germi-
nate. and fields look green. and as
pretty wheat as can be seen i'm any
country can be seen here at this time
of year. Many new farmers who are
working the sod lands are the ones
that are making complaint and report
ing their crop dying for want of rain.
Where wheat was sown near the sur
face the constant winds have dried it
before taking root. and it has per-
ishcd. Wherever the ground has been
properly prepared the crop is doing
well and will make good wheat.
Business here is very good. and with
the prospects for railroad this city
will soon be on big boom. Every
day capitalists are hero investing in
lands and city property, showing that
they are satisfied with the future of
the country.

In Jerauld county the opposition to the
Campbell league is so decided that remon-
strances against it are being largely signed,
and candidates for Office are required to take
ground in opposition. This is the form of the

Jerauld county, hereby pledge ourselves to
support no man for county or territorial
office who, for the purpose of furthering his
own selfish ambition, SO far forgets the inter-
ests of the people of Dakota as to advocate
the so-called state league"
There will be genera demand upon the next
legislature to fix salaries for county officers

Northern Pacific Forfeiture.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON. June 30.-Maj Strait of
Minnesota, who is member Of the house
committee on public lands. was asked to-
night what he thought of the prospects of
an agreement between the house and senate
on the bill to forfeit the entire land grant
of the Northern Pacific railroad west of
Bismarck. Mai. Strait replied:
The situation is just this: The senate has
passed a bill which declares that the lards
granted to this corporation which have never
been earned shall revert TO the United States.
The upper house recognizes the right of the
company to the lands which it has earned,
but which were earned after the date fixed
upon for the expiration of its charter. The
house committee took up the senate bill,
struck out all after the enacting clause and
inserted Its own bill which proposes to for
felt every acre of land granted to the rail-
road which lies west of Bismarck Oak. In
other words, the house committee says in ef-
fact that because the road met with reverses
and failed to carry out the terms of its
charter within the prescribed time (although
it has subsequently done SOY; therefore the
land must revert to the United States. The
senate will never agree to this, but l think
the house will eventually conclude to pass the
bill as it came from the senate.
