Maj. Ben c. Ash, accompanied by
Carson Williams. of Fort Pierre. passed
thru the city today, en- roue home from
u thirty days trip in Texas, New Next
co, Arizona and Oklahoma. While
away they bought 5000 head of 2-year-
old cattle, which will be shipped to the
range west of the Missouri next month.
Maj. Ash owns horse ranch on Moro
river and a cattle ranch on Grand river,
west OF the Standing Rock Indian
agency. Mr.. Williams has a ranch near
the site of old Fort Bennett, forty miles
above F'ierre.
THE range country where I'm To-
Gated" said Mr. Ash, is sparsely set
tied, arid, therefore, an ideal location
for stookmen. The threatened rush of
emigrants to South Dakota doesn't
touch us. and we hope it won't. Free
range lis becoming scarce enough as it
is, and it will be only a matter of eight
or ten years when the days of the big
cattlemen will be past. Sheep men
haven't invaded the country west of
Standing Rock, but they are rapidly
driving stockmen away from the White
river and Bad river range.
Where I'm located the grass is good
the year round. There is plenty of ex-
cellent water enough timber and free
sandstone to build corrals, barns and
cabins, and, what is more to the pur-
pose, an abundance of fuel. We burn
coal--a sort of Ignite, known out there
as Mandan mud It Stacks like lime
when exposed to the air for any length
OF time, but it makes a fierce fire and
answers our purposes very Well
Texas and New Mexico and Okla
homa are being settled up pretty rap
idly continued Maj. Ash, "and ii will
be only a matter of time when the
ranchmen will be cleaned out. It's a
great country, but no greater than
South Dakota. We had no trouble in
buying all the cattle we need. Cattle
brought from the southern ranges do
much better than the Iowa and Mime
sofa dogies.' The latter, being stall
fed, know nothing about rustlng and
they winter badly What loss there is
this winter may be classed as dogie
stuff. and especially the animals which
We're brought on the range last fall. A
dogie will do pretty well if put on the
range in the early spring and taught
to hustle.

largely due to the hot weather of last

Missouri bottom is from $3.50 to Sc per

to pay cash. Farm wages are very
high. The minimum is s25 per month

A CANDIDATE FOR STATE
IDes Moines Capital.l

The Hon. r. F.. Carroll, of Bloomfield,
is formally announced by the Ottumwa
Courier for the republican nomination
for state auditor. Mr.. Carroll was born
in Davis county in 1860. He is an edu-
Gated man and was a number of years
a teacher. For the past ten years he
has been an editor. He filled the office
of state senator for four years and is at
present postmaster of Bloomfield. The
Sixth district at present holds no state
office, and the whole force of the dis
trict will be brought to bear in the in
terest of Mr.. Carroll. whose nominal
ton is confidently predicted. Mr. Car
roll served with great honor in the state
senate and was a true representative
of the peoples interests. If chosen he
will be an honor to the office and a
credit to the republican party. During
the contest for governor he was an
earnest supporter of the Hon. A. B.
Cummirls, but 1t is understood that he
is to be supported by republicans gen
orally without regard to faction. He is
too big and broad man to be regarded
as a factionist.

WOMEN PULL OFF" DOG FIGHT

The ladies planned a surprise party
on Mesdames Tatharl and Paine Fri
day evening. AS it vas hen party

we'll laid. And the ladies did have
fine time. All the men in town We're
green with envy afterwards when they
learned that the finest dog fight in
Woodstock in many days was pulled
off" in the parlor as 6 large part of the
evening program. Both Mrs. Jones and
Mrs. Smith asseverate, however, that
this affair was not planned at all. But
they do say-those that witnessed the
dog collision-that for hurrying and
skurryirg and frantic efforts to get
feminine feet out of the mix-up 1t beat
any mouse scare ever put on the
boards. But the dogs were put out, and
a time of social merriment occurred
that was only married by the thought
that the ladies in whose honor the
gathering was held would so soon take
their departure. When they go next
week, this family takes with them the
kindest regards of all Woodstock people.
