tensive in the World.
WASHINGTON, November 7th.-Governor
Mellette, of Dakota Territory in his an
nual report says the growth in population
has been rapid and stable and now has
! reached 650000, as against ,610 in 1885
The total area filed during the year was
2,096, ,030 acres. against l, S36, ,142 during the
preceding year. The bulk of the present
vacant land in area is about 1887 ,237
acres. The area of the land sold by the
Northern Pacific Railway from its grant
and by private owners is estimated to be
equal to about 25 per cent. of the lands
entered during the year.
The report says there has been during the
past year practical cessation of railway
building, IS compared with the remarkable
activity of 1887.
port says, in part: Almost the entire
area of Dakota is susceptible of cultiva-
ton. and those portions not adapted are
available for grazing. Cattle-raising, for
which Dakota possesses peculiar adapta-
tons, is rapidly ygrowing industry. The
increase in the value of live stock during
the last nine years is stated to have been
