Beyond doubt a fairly heavy ma.

The Mile SQUARE Act.

Congressman G. II. Burke, who spent
Saturday in Sioux Falls, expressed the
conviction that congress this winter will
pass the mile square homestead act, and
added that in his Judgment the measure
was vital to the interest of the whole
western part of the state and was neces-
sary to its development. Mr.. Burke
anticipates decided movement into
these lands during the coming summer
on account of the extension of the Mil
waukee and the possible extension Of
the Northwestern, but he believes that
movement will be largely in anticipation
bill, and he further believes that most
of those who oppose the enactment Of
this measure do so because they do not
wholly understand the conditions and
provisions of the bill.
Surely it is safeguarded in every pos
sible way against beirg taken advantage
of by spectators. tt begin sith the
homesteader is limited 70 tract of land
more than two miles il length. This
makes it Impossible for one person to
take his land in long narrow strip
along waterway, thus monopolizing
water rights, and rendering useless to
others the land which lies back Of it,
He can only acquire the lands by five
years actual residence and is not entitled
to the privilege of Communication. He
must improve the land to the extent OF
Sl.50 per acre and must be able to prove
to the satisfaction Of the officials of the
land office the bona fide character of his
residence, and improvements to the ex-
tent of 80 cents per acre continuing over
period of five years. This would seem
to shut the door in the face of The specu-
lator and to give ample safeguards to
bona fide settlement.
Those who argue that "l60 acres oil
land is enough" should consult the early
history Of the settlement of the whole
eastern half Of this state. Under the
land laws then existing. the settler was
able to take pre-emption and a timber
claim, aggregating 800 acres, and at the
end of six months having secured title
by the payment of Sl.25 per acre, he
could take homestead, thus giving him
4s0 acres. II 4s0 acres of government
land was not too much for the settle
ment OF the eastern half of the state

Beef and Hide inspector.

1t is not generally known that the late
state legislature passed an enactment
providing for the appointment by coun-
ty commissioners of beef and hide in
spector, but such, however, is fact. The
law provides that when twenty-five per.
sons engaged in stockraising shall peti.
ton the commissioners to appoint an
inspector it shall be the duty of the
board to comply with their demands by
authorizing the sheriff to act in such ca
pacity. The sheriff in turn has the
privilege of appointing such number of
deputies as may be necessary to accom-
modate those engaged in butchering or
selling beefthroughout the county. The
inspector, or bis deplty5 is required to
inspect every beef slaughtered which is
intended to be offered for sale either
within or without the county, and he
shall stamp with indellible ink each
quarter Of such dressed beef at least in
four places, and shall also stamp the
hide. He shall make due report to the
county auditor of all beef carcasses so
inspected and stamped and also desig-
nate the brand carried upon the hide of
such slaughtered animal 1t shall also
be his duty to give approximately the
live weight Of such animal, its color, and
when and where and by whom inspect
ed. The act says that as soon as an in
spector has been appointed it shall be
unlawful for any person or firm within
said county to sell or offer for sale any
slaughtered beef or the hide therefrom
until the same has been inspected and
marked, and FOR violation of the law a
penalty of fine of not less than ten nor
more than one hundred dollars is pro-
yided The Inspector is allowed fee
of twenty-five cents for each beef and
hide inspected, which sum is to be paid
by the owner of the animal slaughtered.
The law passed with an emergency clause
that made it operative at once.

ing to require the sinking Of artesian
wells, and much diligence in tree plant
ing for its development. The average
farm in the whole state is $40 acres The
average in the portion of the state tribu.
tary to the Missouri river is $40 acres.
These figures show that l60 acres is not
enough for the welfare of the home
steader who undertakes to make living
on these lands while he is developing
them, and that the amount fixed by the
bill under discussion is not far from
right. The Argus-Leader has given
thoughtful consideration to this meas.
ure, and it has an increasing conviction
that its passage is of great importance to
the state.-Argus Leader.

serve, and filed bond with the depart
ment and has been granted permission to
construct railroad through the reserve
from Rapid City to Mystic. The work
was held up two or three weeks by the

the permit had not been applied for and
that no bond had been filed as required
