GOV. LEES CONTRIBUTION.
Some of the Holes in His Capital
Removal Logic.

Ex.Gov. Andrew E. Lee has writ
ten to a Black Hills friend a letter in
which he gives what be regards as
arguments in favor of removing the
from Pierre to Mitchell Let's
look at some of them:
INVENT SEVEN TINES AS Dense
Gov. Lee: pierre can never hope
to be central for more than 20 to %
per cent. of the population, while
Mitchell must, from its natural 10
cation and agricultural advantages,
retain from rs to 50 per cent. of the
population within a LOO miles
square"
This 100 miles square might be
marked practically by lines extend
ing east and south from Woisey to
tho boundaries Of the state; but the
fact is that today the enter OF tbs
states population is practically at
Wolsey, clear to the extreme north
west corner OF Gov. Lees 100 miles
square
Again: The total area of the state
is about 5000 square miles. The
area of Gov. Lees 800 miles
square" is 10000 square miles, or
about Is per cent. Of the states
area. Forever, then, this Ii per cent.
OF area must hold 80 per cent. of the
population, and forever the remain
ing 81 per cent. Of area will hold only
20 per cent. Of the population.
That is to say: With a total popu-
iation Of 100000 for the state, this
100 miles square will have 100000,
or an average Of 80 inhabitants to
tho square mile, while the balance Of
the state will have 100000, or an
average Of only 3 inhabitants to the
square mile. So, according to Gov.
Lee, the southwest corner Of the
state is to have forever and forever a
population twenty-seven times as
dense as the balance Of the state!
To produce such q condition. the
whole country north Of the main line
Of the Northwestern, including half

STATE BOARD or AGRICULTURE.
Corn Yield OF Greater Value Than That
or Wheat,

topeka, Jan. 16.-At the meeting OF
the State Board of Agriculture, Secre'
tary Coburn devoted good deal OF his
time in telling of the publications
which have been issued by the board
during the past year and the immense
circulation each has had. He eulogized
the great prosperity with which the
farmers have met and predicted anoth-
er prosperous year. In closing Secre-
tary Coburn said:
"Agriculturally, the past year has
been one of the most productive in the
history of the state. In 1903 were
raised the largest wheat crop ever
grown, and corn yield OF greater
value than that of the wheat. Other
crops fourished, too, and gave opulent
yields in spite of humidity that in
almost any other state than ours
would have meant failure. 1t would
seem that General Prosperity has per-
manently located in Kansas.
"In being the official chronicler and
herald of such conditions for such a
the State Board OF Agri-
culture Is favored in degree that is
enviable."
The report Of President Churchill
was along the same line.

That Independent Packing Company To
Be Pushed,
MANY COURTESIES EXCHANGED.
No Effort VIII be Loft Unmnds tn Raise
8S.OOO.OOO for stookmen's Packing
Plants. There Is Determination to
Carry This Through to Success.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 1s.-With the
feeling that one of the most important
meetings in the history of the organi-
zation of the National Live Stock
Association is ended, and that much
was accomplished that will be to the
future success of the live stock inter-
ests, the seventh annual assembly of
the Live Stock association adjourned
TO meet In Denver next year. The
opinion Of those in attendance on this
convention is that more successful
and pleasant convention has never
been held.
Many important questions have been
considered, the more important being
the public lands relative to grazing,
the relation of railroads to the stock
industry, and, most Important of all,
the establishment of Independent
packing houses, This has been the
watchword of almost every session.
The proposition of the stoclsmen TO
band together in one corporation for
the purpose of bnilding and operating
packing plants of their own, that the
packing combinations may be fought
and the interests of the producer and
consumer protected, were explained
thoroughly by those who have studied
the situation.
The necessity of raising s5,ooo,o 900
for the purpose of putting this plan
into operation was ever kept before the
convention and the work of securing
subscriptions toward this end will be
taken up Immediately. The plan hav-
ing received the unanimous endorse
ment Of the convention, those directing
il are determined to carry it through
to success, and no effort will be left
unmade to accomplish this end. The
expression of those who spoke in be-
half of this scheme wat that 1t offered
the only solution to the situation that
now faces the industry.
The election of officers resulted as
follows:
Frank J. Hagenbarth, Utah, presi-
dent; H. Jastro, Bakersfield, Calf, first
vice president; Francis Stewart, Buff
falo Gap, S. D., second vice president;
Charles f. Martin. Denver, Colo, sec
rotary; George G. Goulding, Denver,

Subjects OF Railroads And Forest Re.
serves Were Considered.
THE sTOcKMEN AS PACKERS,
A Unanimous Vote For An Independent
Packing House Company to Esiab-
Iish Plants to Compete with The
Packers Combine.

Portland. Ore, Jan. 16.--By unan-
flnous vote and with great show OF
enthusiasm the National Live Stock
convention adopted resolutions heartily
endorsing the policy of President
Roosevelt with reference to the build
ing of the Panama canal. When Pres
ident Springer introduced the resoiu-
tion he alluded to the discussion OF the
Panama question in the senate and the
criticism of President Roosevelt on
account of the position he has taken.
The call for a vote was the signal for a
roar of "ayes" and a burst of deafen-
ing applause. Not dissenting voice
was raised. a copy of the resolution
was Immediately wired the president.
The subjects of railroads and forest
reserves were considered in relation to
their effect upon the livestock indus
try. Shortage of cars, slow time in
transit, and high tariffs formed the
burden of number of addresses bear
ing upon Ullt IISU oopySNo'
That Legislation might be had remedy
ing the exclusion of stockmen from
forest reserves, was the demand of
every speaker on the public lands sub
ject.
The proposition to incorporate a
company of live stock men for the pur-
pose of establishing Independent
packing houses in the stock centers of
the country to compete with the pack
ers' combine and restore prices of live
stock was an all absorbing topic of
discussion. By unanimous vote the
convention endorsed resolution ia
voring the Incorporation of such a
company and the establishment Of the
independent house. The plan of this
company is to compete with the COM
bination plants giving the producer
better price for his stock and main
tanning reasonable prices to the con-
sumner.
