arian that the cattle are free from in
fectious, contagious or communicable
disease.
BY the same act it is unlawful to al
low cattle to be shipped into the state
from another without the required GER
%tiicate.
The object of the law, of course, is
to prevent the spread of contagious
disease among cattle. A few months
ago the farmers were considerably
alarmed by the existence of "A disease
Which some veterinarians termed an
thrax.
The law will apply to all immigrants.
of whom thousands are now settling in
the state. The herds of cattle already

enforcement is placed by the law.

RAILWAY,
HURON TO ABERDEEN
Proposed to Build Four Score
Miles of Trolley Line to
Connect Two Cities.

Aberdeen, S. D., April 2S.-There is
every probability that in a few days
construction work on an electric inter-
urban road to connect Aberdeen with
Huron will be begun from both ends of
the proposed line. Huron already has
granted a franchise for terminal rights
and Aberdeen has been asked to do like
wise. The matter is now being con-
sidered by the business men who have
appointed a committee to look care
fully into the matter and ascertain just
how the promoters stand financially.
The proposition was submitted to the
city council by j.. A. Cleaver, of Huron.
and at a conference held today with
the business mems committee he ex-
planned the details of the plan. AS bust
ness men generally are ir favor of the
new line, it is regarded as certain that
the city council will be asked to grant
a franchise as suggested. The proposed
line will be 50 miles in length, just one
mile shorter than the Northwestern
railroads route frcm Huron to this
city.
