THEY ARE COMING.

Dispatches to the Argus-Lead-
er from Mitchell, Huron, Pierre,
Redfeld and Aberdeen indicate
that the influx of settlers into
South Dakota this fall and VIM
ter will be larger than ever before.
Prospectors are coming into the
state by the train load, to see for
themselves the fat crops now ma
turing or just matured on South
Dakota soil. 1t is one thing to
read the reports about these crops;
it is more satisfying to see for
ones self. The hotels at the
central points in the interior and
the northern part of the state are
crowded, and it is undoubtedly
within reason to predict that
more actual settlers will come III
to the state within the next six
months than during any similar
period in recent years. The situ-
alton is one which is all to the
good in this state, and it means
much for its prosperity.
It has been odd to the Argus
Leader that South Dakota in the
last five years has not settled up
more rapidly than it has. 1t is
true that thousands have come,
but the Argus-Leader cannot un-
derstand why everybody should
not want to live in this state.
The soil is particularly respon-
sive. Perhaps no lands in the
United States, which produce so
much can be bought for SO little,
The climate, while neither sum-
mer nor winter resort, has attrac-
tions which are not to be over
looked. With the towns and
cities growing, with values al
ways on the upward climb, with
immense production, and general
prosperity prevailing everywhere
in the state, it is little less than
remarkable that South Dakota
has not at this hour one million
people instead of half that num-
Der.
But the truth about South Da-
kota is out uow, and the states
]growth in population will be rap
id. The metropolitan newspa-
pers are telling about South Da-
kota. The railroads are adver-
tisiug the state. People who are
| living in the state are writing
''back home" to tell the eloquent
story, and if the people of the
middle west know a good thing
when they see it, and there is a
general belief that they do, the
next year ought to see a tremend-
Gus immigration. .-Argus-Leader.

States Witness in the Berry Murder Case
Wounded in Hand.
Allan Shafer. the man who happened
to be passing the Berry place at the
time Dewey's rifles shifted out the light
Of three Of the Berry family and who
heard the cracks and saw the smoke Of
the Strengthening guns, was, while re-
turning home to Bird City from McDon-
aid last Sunday, shot at by a masked
man who was secreted at the side OF the
road. The ball passed entirely through
his right hand.
Mr.. Shafer attended the inquest held
over the bodies Of the dead Berrys, and
win be used as a witness for the state
next December when the trial Of Chaun-
cey Dewey and his pals will be tried for
murder. 1t is thought that the assault
upon Shafer may have some connection
with the fact that he is to testify against
the Deweys.
The st. Francis Eagle, in reporting
the case says: t-Shafer says the man
who made the assault ran down a draw
to where another man held two horses;
and the two rode Of together. Nov if
all this is true, it serves to chow that q
serious state of affairs still exists on our
eastern border; but there are persons so
uncharitable as to advance the theory
that young Shafer accidently shot him.

HoTTENToT IN TOWN.
KwiIke Sakkan, From South Africa, or
Way to California

KwiII1e Sakkan, From south Africa, on
Way to California
Kwilke Sakkan, formerly of Whula-
land, South Africa. was in GOOdlsnd
Monday on his way to California. He
claims to be a typical Hottentot, and
from the letters Of introduction and tes-
timonials he carries there Is probably
much truth in his claims. He says his
father was a trader in South Africa and
had 80 wives. When Kwilke was ten
years old ne, in company with number
of others of his tribe, were taken cap
tiVes by Zulus and subsequently were
being offered up as human sacrifices to
the sun, which the Zulus worshiped,
when Bishop Taylor, now Of Atlantic
City, n. J., and others OF a Christian
band of missionaries, rescued the vic
tins before all OF them were fatally
burned. KwiIke showed the prints on
his feet where he says the wooden
spikes went through and pinned him to
the sacred rock. His legs were badly
burned and the American physician,
with the missionaries, grated on his legs
the skin Of water buffalo. Whatever
happened to him the legs Of Kwilke from
the ankles to the knees are terribly
SCARED and discolored and as hard al
most as rock. The most phenomenal
characteristic of his people, he says, is
the fact that the men can nurse the
babies fr 'm the right breast, and from
appearances the right breast of Kwilke
was much more developed than the left
and might be susceptible Of that func-
ton.
The young man, . years old, looks
very much like half blood negro. His
health has suffered from the change Of
climate and he is forced to go to CalifOr-
MIA to get relief from chronic bronchial
trouble that threatens to be Of very ser
iOus results.

Mrs. Reneau leaves a little child and az
older boy. This Is a sad incident not

Reneau has established in this town.
