BILL WILL BE PASSED.
Congressman Martin Optimistic on Re-
suits of His Efforts.

Deadwood. S. D., Dec. 23.--Congress-
man T. w. Martin Of this city has re-
turned home to spend the holidays.
He will also spend several days with
his sons, on Il wolf hunt down near
Buffalo Gap on his ranch. He Will then
return to Washington. He states that
there are four cities in South Dakota
that are asking this year for public
buildings They are Aberdeen Lead,
WatertoWn and Huron. Mr.. Martin Is
championing the experimental station
bill, which will assist greatly the min
ing industry Of the west lie expects
a favorable report on the bill. Mr..
Martin is enthusiastic over the 6i0-
acre homestead bill. He has received
the support of practically all the east
ern part of the state, and there is YER:
little opposition in the western pof-
ton. He emphatically states that the
bill as formed will not be favorable to
the large cattle interests, but instead
will be especially drawn fer the pro-
lection CT the small farmer and ranch
err The principal opposition. he stat
ed, that he is getting against the bill
comes from the large cattle men. 1t
will be impossible for the cattle men
to locate the ground under the name
of hired persons for such location
would not be honored by the land de-
,partment. a person must reside on
=
charge of Size per acre will be made
when it is proved up on. Mr.. Martin
believes that il the bill passes there
will be a great influx of people next
spring, and that several hundred thou
sand acres of the ground will be taken
up. 1t will also mean a railroad across
the reservation
In the past few days there has been
some additional opposition to the bill,
which has shown itself around Sturgis
and vicinity. One man at Sturgis
writes that the bill should be SO made
that a person cannot take up all of his
$40 acres along a stream of water
leaving the barren places on the table,
land vacant: that the ground should
be thoroughly examined by land ex-
perts before being thrown open, and
the best portions set aside in small
lots to be located with the lakeland
There will be no opposition to the bill
z that will be strong enough to prevent
Its p assing, according to Mr.. Martin

These are some Of the famous Du-
pree herd which was purchased by Mr..
Phillips three years ago. He built a
large pasture of heavy woven wire
fencing about six miles north Of this
city and moved most Of the herd down
here. There were few, however,
which could not be handled and they
have been running wild up on the
Cheyenne reservation, where they are
terror to the stockmen on account
of their favorite pastime of killing ma
tive bulls. Several complaints have
been made, which caused Mr. Phillips
to hunt them down and dispose OF the
their carcasSes for beef this winter.
Each buffalo dressed about 700 to 1000
pounds and nets about $500.
