WASHINGTON, April 3O.-A well-known
citizen of Washington has shown me letters
and papers which indicate that the towns
of Miibank, Oak, and Big Stone City,
Mimi, are pooling their resources for the
purpose of utilizing their natural advan-
tages. They intend to build huge SAM
tarium on the shore of Big Stone lake and
make that health resort for the North
west. There are several springs in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the lake which possess
certain medicinal value, and they are to be
utilized. If matters progress as it would
seem that they may, the two towns will
have cooperative boom.

much valuable information concerning this
territory, and gives the world better

ritory and sent to all parts of the United

ton and bring hundreds of people to Da kota.
The office of the commission is regarded as
headquarters for information of every sort
pertaining to Dakota, and the great baskets
OF mail received daily contain letters as king
all sorts of questions. Some ask about the
lands, climate, water and fuel; 9th ers inquire

Itself within the central wheat belt of the
great Northwest. it is apparent that Pierre
holds the key to a well-defined geograph-
zeal situation applying to the commercial
development of a vast area of untold min
eral and agricultural resources. Added to
this it is the geographical center of the
state OF Dakota. as divided on the 10Th par
allel. Pierre is the present terminus of the
Dakota Central through trunk line of the
Chicago d Northwestern railway. The town
was reached by the road in the fall of 1880.
but did not obtain its real start until the
spring of 1881. AS soon as Hughes county
was organized Pierre became the county
seat, and it is beautiful city now, with
several thousand inhabitants The site of
Pierre is one of the most picturesque spots
on the Missouri river. At this point the
river makes a sweeping bend from north to
east, leaving bowl or basin on it's east
shore at the foot of the coteaus or high hills
which form the east bank, and rise, bench
above bench. in wide and beautiful ter
races. The river, less than mile in width,
is lined with native forest timber, which
also grows in abundance on numerous
islands. Adjoining the town there is a large
grove of fine forest trees, skirted by the
river on one side and overlooked by the
steep bluffs on the other, which seems in
tended by nature for park. Its surface is
nearly as level as floor 1t
is the property of the railroad and
has been reserved for park purposes.
AS l mentioned before, Pierre being the
terminus of the Chicago & Northwestern
railway and the gateway to the Black Hills,
the traffic between Pierre and Deadwood is
OF vast proportions, and everything is
transported by the Northwestern Transpor-
tatiOn company, by which nearly 1000 men
and 10, goo oxen, mules and horses are en-
ployed most OF the year round. This COM
pany ALSO Operates a daily line of stages,
making the trip in about thirty-six hours.
Fort Pierre, the old Indian trading post, is
just across the river opposite Pierre. 1t is
very pleasant little village, and the mer-
chants are doing good business. The SOL
diers and old fort buildings have all been
removed from here to other parts of the
territory. Wells addition to Pierre, or East
