The brand and mark committee
which has been in session for the
past three weeks has accomplished
much in the way Of selecting ana
establishing the different brands
throughout the state, but the com
mittee has huge pile OF work be-
fore it yet. Before the enactment
of the law establishing a state reg
istry OF brands and marks, the
counties controlled and established
the different brands and marks
Hence two or more counties would
have the same brand, thereby caus-
ing trouble and confusion among
stockmen. Now every brand has tc
be registered at the secretarv's Office
and the major part Of the commit
tees work is to sort out and adopt
a brand for each StOckman that con
tlicts with no other brAnd in the
state.-Pierre Free Press.

Rapid CITY Wins.

The fight over the removal Of the
United States land office from Rap
id City to Deadwood is at an end for
four years, at least, with the result
that this institution will remain in
it's present location in this city.
Deadwood, backed up by a United
States senator, congressman and
the new receiver, has made a long
and stubborn fight to secure the re.
moval of the nstitution to that CITY,
and the decision of the department
5ainst ordering the removal is not
only triumph for Rapid City, but
for the people of this entire land dis
trict The decision was announced
Wednesday,
Deadwoods characteristic hog
gishness has been beautifully dem
onstrated in this matter, as it has
been in many others, but the scheme
for removal has failed just as it
should. Let Dead and the pro-
motors of this plan take their medi-
cine. They mixed it.

A great shortage in sheep exists
all over the east, and heavy drafts
are being made upon Western tiocks
to replenish them. The demand for
good strong Western ewes for this
purpose promises TO be very great
the coming season. Really the east
never needed sheep SO badly nor
wanted them worse than now, and
never have they been so they could
not do something toward supplying
their local demand. At present,
for every hundred wanted east Of
