TO BEGIN At WESTERN END.
Active Work on Pierre to Hills Line
Will Begin Soon.

Will Begin Soon.
Railroad matters are moving along
in good shape and preparations are
going on for active work on the line
from Pierre to the Hills. Just at the
present though, 1t appears that grad
ing work will be done first on the
western end of the line, working out
from Rapid City along the old grade
which was purchased from the Rapid
City, Missouri River & st. Paul com.
pany.
There are two reasons for this ac-
ton apparent. One that the company
can handle material from that end Of
the line without ferrying across the
river, and the other that by pushing
work on that end of the line to the
Cheyenne river they can get material
out to that stream and start work on
their bridge there this winter and
have it in shape to not delay the line
later. Another potent reason might be
found in the fact that by working from
Rapid City they can secure first choice
Of location of lines before the Milwau-
zee IOdu S0lS upon lu2 SIOullu.
The line from the west will follow
the old grade across the divide from
Rapid City to the valley of Box Elder
creek and down that stream to the
Cheyenne river, then down the valley
of that stream to the mouth of Bull
creek, which will give them a way out
to the divide between the head of that
stream and the Cottonwood fork of
Bad river, then down the valley of
that stream.
While it is considered that the road
will use what is known as the Bad
route, there appears to be question
as to whether they will start up that
stream from the mouth. or reach out
onto the high prairies up some of the
smaller valleys reaching down to the
Missouri, and get down into the valley
of Bad river at some point farther
west.
H. II. Decker of the chief engineers
force arrived at Pierre last week from
Chicago. A full corps of surveyors
came in to begin their work at this
end of the line, and their operations
will indicate which route will be fol-
lowed for the first few miles west from
Pierre.

cATTLEMEN's BEST SEASON.
Stock Are Fed Cheaper Than Usual,
So Are Profitable.

This will be the best season the cat
tie shippers have had in many years.
More than sixty thousand head of cat
tie will be shipped from the ranges adj
Joining Belle Fourche, and the receipts
easily will total over $5,OO0,OOO. Small
,stockmen and large dealers share
alike In these profits, as the conditions
which go to make up prosperous
year apply alike to both.
AS the demand was slight and the
markets low, many cattle were held
over last season, with the result that
the shipments now are especially
heavy. The profits lie in the fact that
the weather this summer has been so
favorable that with but little cost the
cattle have become both heavy and fat.
The abundant rainfall and the warm
weather sweetened the grass on the
ranges so that it has been especially
nutritious this season. Then, again,
prices are good, and the man who can
ship heavy cattle and get good prices
for them is sure of money.
All ranchers and stocllmen about
Belle Fourche are in an unusually
prosperous condition. Grass is plenti.
full on the ranges and prospects are
good for favorable season for all
stock. Shipments have been so heavy
that the railroads have been taxed to
their utmost capacity. The North.
Western road, which handles all the
stock shipped from here, is running
extra trains daily.
