WILL TAP CATTLE COUNTRY.
MiIwaukee@Road Plans South Dakota
ExtenSion


Sioux Falls, s. D., March 31.-In.
formation received here from an un-
questioned source indicates that the
Milwaukee railroad will not be ex-
tended to the Black Hills, this year
at least.
The stated agreement existing be-
tween the different roads will not
permit the Milwaukee company to
build to the Hills this year, but that
company is at liberty to tap the cat
tie country west of Chamberlain for a
limited distance, but not far enough
to interfere with the Black Hills traf-
flc on other roads.
According to the authority men
toned, which is of the best, work will
be commenced on the extension of
the Milwaukee westward from Cham
berlain very soon and so much of the
line as is to be built will be finished
this summer Just where the ter
minal is to be cannot positively be
stated. but it will be about 100 miles
west of Chamberlain, in the heart of
the great cattle range between the
Missouri river and the Black Hills.

In view OF the statement from DR..

added upon the highest authority that,
in the view of the administration, the
doctor has no official standing and
whatever communication he makes to
the president or state department can
not have any weight or bearing. If
President Castro is dissatisfied with

The Battle of Mukden..

AS more definite accounts of the
battles about Mukden reach us we
are enabled to form a more accurate
estimate of its nature and results.
For the number of men engaged
and the strength of the artillery arm
it was the greatest battle of modern
times, but in the number of fatal
casualties, proportionately, it did not
compare with many other important
battles of the last century. It is
pretty accurately determined that
76I 900 men took part in these bat
tles--4oo,ooo Japanese and 36I,ooc
Russians. The Russians had 49,
36S cannon. If the Japanese had as
many it may be readily understood
that these battles were largely fought
at long range and by artillery. The
closest estimates make the total los,
of the japanese $4,000. As tn,
Russians took but few prisoners tn,

Burton Hanson, general solicitor
of the Chicago, St. Paul & Milwau-
kee Railway Co, has issued a PAM
phlet on Railway Safety, the argu-
ment called out in answer to state
ment made by Gov. La Toilette in
message to the legislature in an
appeal for more stringent laws for
the protection of those who travel
on railway trains. In this message
the Governor said: 1--WE have no
law upon our statute books to-day
for the protection Of travellers on
railway trains or those who operate
them, except a confessedly weak
and inadequate co-employe act and
statute providing an ak and saw"
Mr.. Hanson shows that there are
many laws on. the statue books for
the protection Of travellers and en-
ployes. Besides these laws which
he refers to, which are rigidly and
carefully observed by the railway
management, there are numerous
and explicit regulations made by the
managers for the preservation of
the lives of people and the property
of the companies-rules that apply
to every employee Of the roads. It
may readily be seen that this is so,
for it is for the interest Of the rail
way companies that the utmost care
and precautions should be taken.

That naval battle that was to turn
the world over the other way hasn't
occurred yet. The newspaper cor
respondents had the fight all figured
out weeks ago, the numerous places
where it was to occur and the re-
suits. In the meantime the Rus
sian fleets sail on toward their desti-
nation or their destiny. Come to
think of it Togo probably knows
his business. Why should he have
sailed away to Madagascar after the
Russians when they were pretty
certain to come to him? Togo need
not fight at all unless he chooses to
do so. He has fine harbors into
which no hostile fleet can enter.
Where will Rojestvensky go when
he enters the sea of Japan? To
Vladivostock? There seems to be
no other place where he can locate.
Then the question is, can he get
there in safety? And would he be
safe when he got theree Togo will
probably have something to say in
answer to these questions. Rojest-
vensky will find the old adage true
GA nearer danger is greater dan
ger"

The Preachers VS.. Rockefeller.

The preachers are cussing John
D. Rockefeller for contributing
100000 to the Congregational
Board of Foreign Missions. They
had not noticed that John D. was a
crook and consequently that the
money was "tainted" until this
money had been urgently and per-
sistently solicited and accepted. The
Society through its secretary had
asked the younger Rockefeller to
secure donation from his father for
the Board of Foreign Missions and
he had declined. Then the secre-
tary sought the confidential agent
of the elder Rockefeller and urged
him to present the case to Mr..
Rockefeller's attention and see if an
interview could not be arranged.
Mr.. Gates, the agent, replied that
Mr.. Rockefeller would probably
not find it convenient to give per-
sonal interview, that the question oil
endowing institutions of learning
under the control of missionary So
cieties had been presented often and
urgently to his attention, but that he
had not heretofore thought it wise
to make such endowments. The
secretary persisted in his efforts to
get donation from Mr.. Rockefellel
and finally succeeded. The seque
would seem to show that Mr.
Rockefeller still "thinks it unwis,
to make such endowment. Thi
soliciting money from man AM
then accusing him of stealing it need
new word to describe. Their
doesn't seem to be one in the diction
| airy adequate to cover such an act.

The Canadian Northwest Terri
tories have received large accessions
TO their population within the past
few years with the certainty, that
emigration will be largely increased
in the near future. The records OF
the government Of Canada show
that 555,222 immigrants settled in
Manitoba, Assiniboia, Saskatche-
wan, Alberta and British Columbia
in the last five years, of which num-
Der I64,96S were from the States.
These Northwest Territories of
Canada have an immense amount of
fertile land, the best wheat land in
the world, and the grazing limits
are boundless. The country has
some disadvantages. The region
east of Alberta is extremely cold
during the long winters. Assini-
boia has not enough rainfall for
crops, while the whole country east
of the mountains has frequent sum-
mer frosts or frosts SO early in the
fall as to damage, and sometimes to
destroy the crop. The homestead
laws of Canada are much more lib
eral than those of the United States,
fact which invites immigration
from the States. The intentions of
the government of the United States
to settle the West with families that
would make permanent homes and
develop the country was right and
the laws enacted to this end wise but
the intention to this end has been to
great extent defeated by failure
to SO safeguard the operation of the
laws as to restrict the land to per-
manent homeseekers. Land grab
bers and SPECTATORS have gobbled
up much of Uncle Sans vacant do
main. This is to Canada's advantage.
She gets the people that we lose.
The Canadian government has
agents in every northern state, ex-
cept Utah and Montana, who are
hustling for emigrants destined to
the Northwest Territories Of Cana
da. These agents report that more
than $4,000 Americans from these
states will locate in Canada this year.
In the meantime we shall get mil
lion from across the water-two-
thirds of whom we don't want.
