AT Supt. McCarty's office in Huron
this statement was made: "You may
state with a fair degree of certainty
that within the year Chicago q North
western company will have trains run
Dakota, and in another year stockmen
living on the ranges can ship their stock
direct to Chicago without having to
drive long distances to either Pierre or
Belle Fourche. Work will be begun in
a short time on the bridge and will con-
tinue through the winter, and IN the
spring construction work on the road
itself will be commenced and pushed to
rapid completion" Que hundred thou
sand tons of steel has already been pur-
chased for the bridge across the Mis-
souri, river at Pierre. The Northwest
ern company has purchased the old
Rapid City & Pierre grade, about eigh-
teen miles in length and built by Rapid
City capital. The proposed extension
will be about 40 miles-possjbly a
little less The bridge at Pierre will be-
a railway and wagon bridge, with pas
sages for footmen.
Ii appears to be the general opinion,
among hunters of South Dakota that
they are prohibited by the provisions of
the game law from selling prairie
chickens ana other game birds, even
within the state. John w. Hutchinson
of Sioux Fails, ex-game warden of
Minnehaha county and an acknow-
lodged authority on the matter, states
that this view is incorrect. Many still
believe Mr.. Hutchinson is acting as
game warden, and he is frequently
asked whether or not there is law in
South Dakota preventing the sale of
game. In referring to the matter he
said: IL laid the matter before Attor-
ney General Hall and also before
States Attorney Orr, and they both
made the same answer, that they could
not find any law to prevent the sale of
game birds in South Dakota. Of
course, should a person attempt to sell
mere than fifteen birds he could be
arrested for having more birds in his
possession than the law allows, but he
could not be touched for selling the
birds. As the law is scrutinized more
closely, the weak points are being
brought ont" With the object Of
remedying defects in the present state
game law. Mr.. Hutchinson and other
leading sportsmen of South Dakota are
arranging to hold meeting prior to
the converting of the next Legislature
for the purpose of determining upon
amendments which are necessary to b.,
made to the game laws Of the state. IL
is believed that as the result of such
meeting the game laws of South Dakota
can be made among the best in tho
country.

service among the Indians in Nebraska
and the Dakotas Bishop Hare has con-
cluded to withdraw from active work
among the natives of this country. His

have made because of the labors of

Judge Whitmg's decision that South
Dakota cattle need not be dipped unless
exposed to infection was good as far as
it went, but it didn't go far. The agri-
cultural department holds that every
hsad of cattle in an infected district
must be dipped before it can be shipped
out OF the state-no dip, no ship This
is the policy which the Legislature
deemed wise to enforce by state law.
The cattlemen of South Dakota would
have done better not to oppose a meas
ure designed primarily for their inter-
est The sooner the infected districts
adopt rigid policy Of dipping all cattle
the sooner will be ground for hope for
the lifting of the federal quaran tine
now operating against such districts.

Preparations are being made for the
establishment of a government expert

in the Belle Fourche district, in which

Prosperity is state wide! In the
small towns new stores are being
opened eve rywhere. For two years
Improvements have been chiefly con-
fined to residences and repairs of build

and unoccupied store buildings began
to have tenants. Now there is scar
cely an empty store building, and many
new structures are seen in almost every
village A majority of towns in the
grain belt have added dozen store
rooms TO their capacity this year. That
means great deal Of additional trade,
and is the best index of the effect of
generous returns from the fields.
