The Rush Continues

TIL, rush of homesteaders and
new settlers into the territory
west of the Missouri river still
continues. They are coming in
even larger numbers than they
did last year.
On March 20 according to the
books of the agent at Pierre five
hundred cars of immigrant goods
had crossed the bridge at that
place since the first of the year.
The number crossed at Chamber

Homestead Legislation

A large number Of bills, either
directly or indirectly affecting the
public land SYSTEM Of the nation,
have been introduced by various
members of the House and the
Senate since Congress convened
last December. Among them all,
the act providing for second home
stead entries alone has become a
a law.
The president in his annual mes
sage to congress recommended a
law providing for u larger home
stead than that now allowed under
the law covering most of the public
domain. Representiye Mondell Of
Wyoming introduced a bill in the
lower house providing for a 800
acre homestead in South Dakota
and other western states. Several
other bills of like nature, some of
them including and others exclud-
ing South Dakota from the scope
of their provisions, have been in
troduced. Last week a bill pro-
viding for larger homestead was
passed by the Senate, but at pres
ent it is hung up in the House
Committee on Public Lands, sad
died with several amendments.
The outlook is not particularly
bright at present for legislation
along this line.
Senator Gamble is the author of
a bill providing for the opening of
the western part of the Cheyenne
reservation. This bill receives the
sanction of the Milwaukee railroad
because the passage of the act
would give that road monopoly
of the immigrant business in the
new country. Other roads have
come to the rescue, and as re
suit an act was introduced few
days ago which provides for the
opening of the entire Cheyenne
reservation. This bill would divide
the business among the roads that
reach the Missouri, but do not
enter the western part of the res
ervation.
Another bill that has been hang
ing fire for sometime is that which
provided for a new land Office at
Lennon. 1t is not likely that it
will become a law.

motto: He who by the pom would
thrive must get proof notices. Then
when the getting of proof notices
has become the all absorbing pas
sion Of his soul, and the fact that
John Doe has filed notice of his
intention to make final commuta-
tion proof in support of his claim"
is of more interest to him than the
election of president or the
dynamiting of a king, success will
turn aside from the beaten paths
of men and travel barefoot over
the prairies to (ind his shack.

Sioux City Boosters to Visit Philip

During the third week in April
a special train of Sioux City boost
ers will make a tour of the Black
Hills and the new country west Of
the Missouri river. The trade
campaign will commence At Cham
berlain and extend to tho Hills by
way of the Milwaukee line. After
visiting Rapid City, Sturgis,
Whitewood, Belle Fourche, Deed
wood and Lead, the party will
leave for Pierre over the Pierte,
Rapid City and Northwestern.
They will be in Philip about noon
on Thursday, April 10, and will
spend a half hour getting acquaint-
ed with our people.
This will be tho most extensive
trade excursion yet made into our
territory. In al tho party will
travel l, 1876 miles during the week,
they are away from home. The
Sioux City Live Stock Exchange,
will be we'll represented at the six
teenth annual meeting of the
Western South Dakota Stock
Growers association, which occurs
while the party is in the Hills.

Additional Train Service

The report has come from high
places that the train service of the
Northwestern railway between
Pierre and the Black Hills is to be
increased by adding two more
trains. The schedule has not been
yet announced, but it is known
that both of the new trains will
reach here about midday.
The passenger traffic on the new
line has been heavy from the start,
and is now increasing by leaps
and bounds. Many immigrants
are coming into the country, and
tho traffic is increasing on that &C
count. But the fact that the
Northwestern built one of the
best lines in the state between the
river and tho Black Hills is be-
ginning to tell. A person who
has occasion to travel over the new
line once, becomes = patron of the
road. Travellers in the Hills, desir-
ing to reach Chicago or other
eastern points, are willing to un-
dergo some inconvenience in max
ing connections, in order to avail
themselves Of the comforts of the
Northwestern service.

More Newspapers

Several new newspapers have
been launched in Stanley county
within the past week. Cottonwood,
Topbar and Midland are among
the places that have lately well
coined new publishing enterprises.
Moreover, the report is current
that there are more to come.
Stanley county now has thirty
one newspapers, all alive and kick
ing vigorously on the last publica-
ton day. The number is large
enough to make this the banner
newspaper county of the state.
The Bad River news. [volume] (Philip, Stanley County, S.D.) 19??-1912, 1908-03-26
routes can only be estimated.

Besides this it must be remem-
bered that the entire state is re-
ceiving a large number Of new
settlers. The authorities at Pierre
think the immigration is heaviest
this spring than it has been in the
history of the state.
Agents at Sioux Falls and at
Iowa and other stations outside the
state, report that they have never
before loaded so many cars for
people seeking new homes in the
Dakotas. 1t is likely that the
rush will continue during most Of
the summer.

The Great Empire of Stanley

grants 90 west to their new homes
in this county. The rush this
spring is greater than it has ever
been before. The settlers that
are coming in this year are coming
to stay as is evidenced by the car
loads of household goods and farm
ing implements that they are bring
ing with them. They are coming
from all over The country from
Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ne
braska, Minnesota and a great
many other states to this great
new country to build up homes of
their own. Tyey are the people
who, some day will be substantial
and prosperous citizens of this
country. They will each be own
ers of a quarter section Of as good
and as producing land as lays out
of doors. Fairplay.
Our advice to those who farm in
this yumbo soil is to plow deep;
plant early corn; plant macaroni
wheat; plant flax; plant oats; plant
potatoes and other garden truck,
but don't depend entirely upon
your crops for a living. If you
are going to make your perma-
nent home here get cows, hogs
and chickens. 1t wont take very
many to assure you a living, and
if you raise good crop they will
add to your income in handsome
manner. Stock Growers News.
