fourth regiment will not be SO badly
off. The legislature appropriated
at the rate of $4,000 year and the
state will draw about 5000 in cash
from the national government this
year instead Of taking in the sup
plies as for the past years, the regi-
ment being fully supplied. This will
give one regiment over $4,000 for
the year while the two regiments
divided $500 between them last

State Land Department
Has Been Busy
for the Past
Year.
THE CASES ALL SETTLED!
With the Exception of the one
Against VIM. Krom in
Faux County.

The state land department has for
the past year been keeping one man
busy looking after trespass cases,
and has in this manner collected a
large amount of the school fund. In
Faux county there were numerous
cases, and all were settled except
one, that against William Krom,
which was taken into court, and the
state defended when it alleged tres
pass on the endowment lands, when
in fact the trespass was on the
indemnity lands.
Ia mentioning it locally the Faux
county papers say it was Attest to see
if cattle owner must herd his cat
tie off state lands and and not allow
them to roam at will (which is the
usual custom" Commissioner Beck
smilingly admits defeat in that par
ticular suit, but no further. So far
as the usual custom" is concerned,
it will have to give way when itruns
up against determination of the
state commissioner to enforce section
52S of the penal code, which refuses
to recognize that custom. 1t pro-
vides that any attempt to illegally
pasture or remove hay from any of
the state lands is misdemeanor and
punishable as such, and the office
has been busy the past year in see
ing that the section was enforced.
While it met defeat in this particu-
lar case on technicality, that in no
way deters the work which has been
carried on, and will be kept up in
every section Of the state.
The state land department has
completed three years lease Of the
old Fort Sisseton military reserva-
ton to Sisseton firm at the rate OF
$275 year which goes into the
state militia fund, to help out the
difference in the appropriation
between this year and last year. And

Father of Young Man Seeks Pardon
For Latter.

There is at present residing temporar-

deii Swenson young man who made a
mistake in the brand on horse, and an
application has been made to secure his
release by pardon. A few days ago the
stspfather of the young man was in
Pierre and desired to enter his personal
plea before the governor for the release
Of che prisoner. In order to make his
plea as forcible as possible he fortified
himself with brand of courage which
shows bead when shaken in a bottle,
and then went upon his errand of mercy.
He made an ernest plea for the release
of the boy from associates which are
not good for young man." and gave
as a clincher for his reasons for asking
for the release, that while in the peni-
Tertiary the boy had to associate with
an uncle and two cousins, and that il
was to get him away from such com,
pany that the pardon was desired.

a new trial in the case of Mrs. Mary
Garrigan against certain saloonkeepers.
OF Dell Rapids. She secured Judgment
against three of them, claiming that her
husbands suicide was the result of

them to do so. The refusal OF new
trial means that they will have to pay.

Colonel Hunter Gives a
Few Facts About
Railroads.
IMPROVED SERVICE IN S. D.
He Believes Milwaukee Will
Make Other Extentions-
Great Northern to
Build to Pierre.

L. II u. .
railway, was in Aberdeen Monday
night on his way to Chamberlain
from his big cattle ranch in Camp
bell county. Mr.. Hunter, as is well
known, has done all the preliminary
work in securing the right of way
and the like for every extention the
Milwaukee has made since he has
been connected with the road. He
has been the advance guard of the
road and is thoroughly in touch with
all of the company's plans.
Fair Treatment Appreciated.
For the first time in my life, :"
Mr.. Hunter said, 81 am going to sub
NIT to a newspaper interview and
will tell the News all | know about
the railroad situation. In the first
place, the Milwaukee feels very
friendly toward South Dakota
because of the fair conservative atti-
tude this state has taken toward
railroads in general and our road in
particular. While the roads are
made the butts of politics in other
states in Wisconsin, for instance
the people of South Dakota have
accorded to us the same general
good treatment that they have
extended ia all the other business
interests of the state. believe it is
largely for this reason that the Mil
waukee has decided to extend its
South Dakota lines in preference to
making extensions in other states
that in other respects offer good
advantages in the way of business.
Evarts Line to the Cost.
Yes, you may tell the readers of
News that if the Milwaukee extends
TO the cost, believe the main coast
line will be built from Evarts. The
Chamberlain extention into Lyman
county is not meant for cost line.
We are building it because the
country is well settled, rich ard in
need of railroad ficilities. Just how
far west this line will 90 eventually
/ cannot say at this time. 1t may
strike through Rapid City, or it may
strike the foot hills, pretty well to
the east, and tap the Belle Fourche
irrigated country, running north
until it connects with the rumored
line running west from Everts. /
am not prepared to say what will be
done in detail in this direction. At
present the survey is only completed
a short distance west OF the Lyman
county line. The survey was made
several years ago and it is likely the
the old survey will be followed in
the main The bridge will cross the
Missouri at Chamberlain practically
as stated in the News on Monday
night, making use of American
Island to reduce the expense and
engineering difficulties.
II would not be surprised if the
road wonld start west of Evarts,
bound for the cost, as soon as the
reservation west of the river is
thrown open to settlement. just
now, with the population in that
stretch of territory, although it is a
fine farming country, we would have
to run our road for too great dis.
tance without the aid of local traffic
Other Railroad Extensions.
You need not be surprised te
hear almost any day of other extern
sions that will be undertaken by the
Milwaukee in this state and will b
direct benefit to Aberdeen. Just
now / am not at liberty to say JUS

Improved Service.

Another thing, Milwaukee is now
about to vastly improve its seeyice
in south Dakota. The three best
sleeping cars in the world are being
built for the Pioneer Limited to run
between the twin cities and Chicago.
The magnificent sleepers now in use
on that line will be transferred to
the Chicago Sioux City run, and
the elegant sleepers now in use on
that run will be transferred to the
Aberdeen st. Paul division. This
will be great improvement and
convenience to South Dakota people.
/ mention this sleeping car change
only by way of specific illustration
of the general improvements that are
proposed.
The Great Northern.
81 am alsofi rmly of the opinion
that the Great Northern will extend
southwest from Aberdeen this year.
This road, 1 believe, wants to get
into the Pierre country, and in all
probability will be running into
Faulkton before snow flies. / have
nothing authoritive with reference
to the Great Northern, but am Civ
ing you railroad gossip that is
believed by railroad representatives

 Sometime the young gentleman who conducts the Tucson Post will know sufficient about THE OAsIs and it's editor to shield him- self from perpetrating assertions so unwarranted.

Of course the inspira- ton of the Post editor in the hrazen allegation put forth is ap- parent. That journal probably would not hesitate to concoct correspondence and hide behind it.
