What ll1cy Say Abou! Us.
The New Paper.

WibauX has taken a notable
step forward in the friendly
struggle for municipal honors in
Dawson county by securing a
worthy advocate in the form of
the Wlbaux Pioneer, creditable
newspaper which made it's initial
appearance last Thursday and
will hereafter be published week
ly.
The editor of the Dawson
County Review happened to be
in WibauX when Mr.. Shear, the
publisher of the new journalistic
venture, was running off his first
number, thus participating in the
christening Of the Pioneer and
becoming well acquainted with
it's genial editor and his assistant.
Mrs. Shear also lent her gracious
presence to auspicious occasion,
Walter A. Shear has been and
still is successfully engagen in
the newspaper work at Sentinel
Butte. His brother-in-law, John
H. Kane, will be the active man
ager of the Wibaux business.
Both are hustling young men of
the type that win their way in
any live western community.
The Review believes they will
succeed in their new venture and
cordially welcomes The Pioneer
to the Dawson county field.
1t has long passed from sup
position to certainty that every
would-be-prosperous and progress
sive community must have a live,
uptodate newspaper. The busi-
ness men of Wibaux demonstrate
their belief in this truth by CIV
ing the journalistic infant a sub
stantial diet Of advertising pat
ronage that will make it grow
and develop into a lusty young
ster. Here's long life and pros

Wibaux a Winner.
Second City Of Dawson County is
Bound to come TO the Front
in the Near Future.

visit to the hustliEg town of Wi
baux last week, spending suffic-
clent time there to become ac-
quainted with a number Of the
progressive business men Of the
place and readily coming to the
conclusion that the second city Of
Dawson county has a splendid
future to look forward to-
The country round about Wi
bauX has developed almost more
rapidly than any other section of
Dawson county, with the possible
exception Of the lower Yellow
stone valley. United States Com
missioner E. 3. Jordan gave an
index of this splendid poogress
when he informed The Review
that he had taken 28O homestead
filings during the past year. That
is certainly splendid record.
Mr.. Jordan, by the way, ac-
ceptably serves Wibaux both as
postmaster and United States
Commissioner. He is a great
booster for his community and
for Dawson county in general,
and has great faith in the future
Of this section.
In the course of an interesting
conversation, Mr.. Jordan referred
particularly to the agricultural
wealth of the Wibaux country.
He told Of the experience Of Hugh
M. Bolton, who came out from
Illinois last spring and leased
some land nine miles south of Wi
baux. The knockers said he was
foolish to try to do anything, but
he proceeded to put in @ crop on
slXty-siX acres Of broken ground.
In proper season he harvested
1,270 bushels of wheat, 900 bu-
shells of oats and 500 bushels of
spring rye, as we'll as a big crop
OF the finest potatoes ever grown
anywhere. One of these spuds.
weighing two pounds, ten and a
half ounces was to be seen in the
postoffice.
Mr.. Jordan says this is only
sample of what others are doing
in the same general locality, and
when asked if he believed dry
farming would be a success year
in and'year out, he replied:
Yes, I believe it is perfectly
safe to recommend dry farming
on any Of these Dawson county
lands. I believe sufficient mois-
ture for producing good crops can
be conserved in the soil every
year. OF course, it is necessary
to properly work the ground to
accomplish this, but | was con-
vinced Of what can be done last
summer. I went out short dis
tance from town and dug into un-
ploWed grown. | found the soil
dry and poWdery as could be. A
short distance away | dug into
plowed ground and there | found
plenty of moisture. -
Having recently come into
touch with eastern agencies anx-
ious to find locations for home
seekers, Mr.. Jordan is working
constantly to acquaint these peo-
pie with Dawson county condi-
tions, particularly in the vicinity
of Wibaux, and he predicts a
great influx of settlers during the
coming season.
The town of Wibaux is
generally prosperous. This is
well illustrated by phenomenal
growth of it's banking institutions
and especially the last one estab-
lished, the First National, which
is housed in one of the handsom-
est bank buildings in the state.
One unfamiliar with Wibaux
would be surprised to learn the
extent of its business. A list
compiled by the Pioneer gives
the following: Two banks, two
hotels, three general merchan-
disc stores, one restaurant. one

ANOTHER YEARS DELAY.
American Withdrawal From Cuba
Unlikely Before January, 1909.

Three months, probably more, in the
opinion of the War Department officials
will be necessary for the tabulation of the
Cuban census, a rough count of which
places the population of the island at 3
02s. 2S2 Cuban clerks work carefully, and
as the force engaged is not very large it
will be well into the spring of the new
year before detailed statistics of the is
lands population can be made public
This tabulaton will determine the persons
who will be entitled to vote at the coming
elections to be held as a preliminary to
the withdrawal of the American army of
Intervention. which now has been on the
island for more than a year. Estimates
made at the War Department are that the
census returns will show approximately
100000 men who will be qualified to cast
vote, first at the municipal elections
and later at the general elections, when a
new president is to be chosen. and to
whose administration the United States
will formally restore the government
Pred :ctions are freely made that this
change will not take place before the be-
ginning of 1902

REASONS FOR THE Allotment
SECRETARY CONTIGUOUS LET
TER TO GEORGE W. AUSTIN.
Bond Issue Placed With Banks to
Prevent Withdrawal of Money
From Savings Institutions.

The reason assigned by Secretary Cortel-
you for declining to allot 100000 OF
the Panama canal bonds to George w.
Austin of New York, as contained in his
response to the latter's letter of inquiry,
was that he deemed 1t unwise, during
the existing currency stringency, to cause
the withdrawal of money from savings
institutions. This would have been the
effect of allotments to many individuals,
he explains.
The letter of the Secretary is dated
Decemb IA, 1907, and reads:
II have your letter of December 10,
regarding allotment of the recent issue
of Panama bonds. In reply, you are
advised that under the reservations made
by the department the allotments were
made first to individuals and institutions
who were the highest bidders for amounts
not exceeding $1,000. The remainder of
the 81, 100000 issued was allotted to the
highest national bank bidders. This
course was followed for the reason that
1t was not deemed wise during the exist
ing currency stringency to withdraw
money from savings banks aud other In
stitutions, which would have inevitably
followed had the bonds ben allotted to
individual bidders
by making allotments to national
banks the letter continues. two objects
were accomplished. aside from the one
above mentioned. and both of these. 1t is
thought. will commend themselves to the
public generally We were In a position
to leave on deposit with such banks 81
per cent of the purchase price and yet
have it available for the expenses of the
government as needed, without Withdraw
ing it In lump sum from the channels
Of trade. The banks receiving these
bonds were also enabled thereby to sub
deposits and Immediately take out addi-
tional circulation on the Panama bonds
result very desirable at this time
Secretary Cortelyou Is not required to
answer the allegations of the suit flied by
Mr.. Austin yesterday until January 3,
1905 the return day named in the rule
issued on him by Justice Gould. 1t Is ex-
pected the Attorney General will direct
United States Attorney Baker to appear
in court for Mr.. Cortelypu.

EMIGRATION TO SIBERIA.
A Subject of Analysis Before Rus
sian Duma Committee.

ST. PETERSBURG. December 19.-The
unparalleled volume of emigration to
Siberia was the subject of an hour S
analysis by Prince Vassichikoff. minister
of agriculture. before the duma commit
tee yesterday. The minister said that
since January of the present year. a
total of 3Gi.O0O emigrants had passed
Tchelyabinsk bound eastward. This was
eight times the yearly colonization pre-
vaillng up to 1906. the average then being
about $1,000.
Prince Vassilchikoff painted a glowing
picture of the possibility of Siberia some
day outstripping America in productive
ness. He said that this year the govern
ment had been taken unawares and tie
accommodation for the emigrants were
insufficient. but he promised that transpor-
tation facilities would be greatly improved
in 1905.
The government. he continued, had got
the general zemstXo relief organization
under the presidency of Prince I.voff, to
organize train Kitchens. because now the
infant mortality was friShtfui. Scarcely
an infant was able to survive the forty
days trip. which as customary thing was
undertaken without the facilities tor SUP
plying warm food except teaS The COL
onists themselves thus fell d prey to
acute gastric Diseases.
The minister explained further that
soldiers returning from the war told
marvellous tales OF wealth in the Pacific
regions. ana peasants were induced TO
venture even as far as Elad.vostok prov
nce. where heretofore there had been few
newcomers
In one respect, he said. the government
was dissatisfied with the situation brought
about by present conditions. Wages are
SO high, three rubles per day, that the
colonists prefer to work as day laborers,
renting out their grants of land to the
Chinese farmers. who by reason of this
are penetrating beyond Baikal.
