That Land Office Ruling

Probably no order, ruling, or
decision promulgated by the gener-
al land Office has ever created such
a stir as the recent decision in the
case of the United States vs.
Satrang. BY the way, the Bad
River News published tho first &C.
count, Of that decision, appearing
in any newspaper in this state.
Since then every paper of promin-
ence in Lyman and Stanley coun-
ties has published several columns
in regard to the subject, many OF
the boys giving their readers the
decision in full. The comment has
been various and about evenly
divided between commendation
of the governments new policy aa
illustrated by the decision and
downright abuse of ali tho ma
chinery of the general land Office.
Dozens of letters from the home
steaders themselves have appeared
in print, and most of these epistlea
are rather wrathy in tone. Some

Attempted Bank Robbery in Ly.
man County

An attempt was made to rob
the Draper State bank at 1915
o'clock Sunday morning Decem-
Der l3. The setting of the auto
matte burglar alarm frightened
the would-be bank breakers away.
DR.. W. NJ. Hunt, who was 1T his
office, near the bank, saw three
men run by in an alley which
leads from the rear of the bank.
and took shot at them with 4
rifle. Geo. Dunkle also saw q
man fleeing in an opposite direc-
ton and fired one shot in the air.
Nothing was disturbed in tho bank
and it is still mystery a. to how
the intruders got into the bank
and out again, leaving all avenues
closed as they were left by tho
cashier and assistant when thoy
left the premises earlier in tho
evening.

Samuel is vidictive old scoundrel
with no desire in his cantankerous
old heart other than to hang the
hide of the unhappy homesteader
on his back yard fence. AS re-
suit some of the nieces and nephews
are not as docile rs they should be.
As one of our readers vigorously
put it: THE old scoundrel
can take my homestead away from
me, if he wants it: but sooner or
latter he will get into trouble and
will be coming around asking me
to enlist in his army, and then I'll
tell Uncle Sam he can 60 hiking

But the ruling should not bother
the honest homssteadrr in The
least. The only ones WHO have
anything to fear from the ruling
are those who never had an, IL
tentlon OF making their homes on
the land longer than fourteen
months, the time rec uirtd to make
Communication proof. Ii tn, home
steaders show that their intentions
toward home making were good
but at Il later date circumstances
arrise which cause them to change
their plans, such Il proof will be
accepted. Those who made only
temporary residence on the land
merely to get title to the same are
apt to receive a severe jolt when
they make proof. The intention
Of the homestead law is to provide
free homes for those who 60 onto
a piece Of land and make it their
home. A home on the land to the
exclusion of a home elsewhere is
required, and those who have com
piled with the law have nothing to
fear. The homestead laws have
not been changed but merely a
more literal and strict construc-
ton put upon them.
There may be few homestead
ers who will decide to remain with
us indefinitely. As the Draper
Democrat tersely puts it-"One
result of the recent land decision
is that already the pilgrims who
proved up and hiked back to

Gods country" as fast as their
legs or the railroads can carry
them. It's an i'll wind that blows

Stanley County as a Wealth Pro
duc;us Community

uH~hS Np!HiHS''tJ
The state historical aud statisti-
cal society has just issued state
ment showing the total amount of
wealth produced by the state dur
ing the year 1908. The abstract
of the statement shows that the
state produced during the year
S25, ,2o2,OOO more OF new wealth
than il 1907, and S39, 900. 900 more
than in 1906. The total for the
past year is SlS5, ,434, ,43o.
The National Association of
Wool Manufacturers estimates the
wool crop Of the state alone at
800. - }, ~. tn S122 900. The
largest amount ever credited to the
state. 1t is also a notable fact
that the live stock marked totaIcd
42S, 81 i.44S pounds as against
247, 1871 pounds in 1907.
A u'vl>ion OF tAe princi pal grain
crops is made among the various
counties Of The state, WhicE shows
that Sphinx county produced the
most wheat, 3244, $50 bu., Bon
Homnc county the most corn,
1900 900 bu.. i!innei,aha the
most oats, =. .j}G 100, and a 50 the
most barley, 1890, 900 bs.
Stanley county, "a, might ma
turaIly be expected. still Ia ke, low
rank among the yr;.in producing
counties Of the state. Among the
fifty three counties OF the state. it
stood fifty first in the production
of wheat with Il total of ii 100
bu.; in the prod uuctiou of corn it
stood thrtlcth with A total OF
$4,000 bu; III Che production CT
oats it stood forty second with II
total Of ll4.OJO bu.: and iii the
production of barley, forty seven
til witt! total oi i2,OOU.
Naturally these figures have
about them Il certain element Of
speculation, but they represent
the Judgment of department Of
the state government. which as
sumes to know about these things.
and the estimates are given for
what they are worth.
In the main they represent
pretty accurately the industrial
situation that obtains in this coun-
ty at the present time. \ period
of transition is at hand, and until
matters become more stable, we
can not hope to take high rank as
wealth producing county. Con
sidering the number OF people
who reside in the Great Empire,
there is very little visible wealth,
of the kind that lends itself rcadi-
ly to statistical tabulation, being
produced at the present time.
Certainly the exported wealth Of
the county is insigniticantly small.
But there is wealth production
of another kind going on rapidly.
Millions of acres of government
land are passing into the hands of
individual owners each year and as
such becomes taxable wealth,
bringing our assessed valuation up
along with the leading counties of
the state. More than that, towns
are being built and the general
improvement of the county, from
every material point of view, goes
forward at startling pace. The
production of grain and other
farm and ranch products will come
in due season.

President of the Northwestern
MAY Resign

May Resign
There is rumor in circulation
up and down the Northwestern
line from Chicago to Deadwood,
that Marvin Huehitt. president OF
the Northwestern system will re-
sign his office on the first Of the
coming year. Mr.. Hughitt is
now we'll past seventy years of
age and has been in active direc-
tion Of the affairs of the company
for many years. The story of his
proposed resignation comes from q
source that should give it weight
and it is generally believed that
the old man is anxious to get out
of the harness and spend his few
remaining years in peace.
On the other hand. there are
those who declare that although
he has his resignation in mind, it
is not to take place at the early
date named. They Insist that
since he has undertaken the cree
ton of the new $25. 900 station
at Chicagn, he wishes to remain Mt
the head OF the corporation until
the building is finished and that
he will then retire.
Marvin Hughitt is one of the
remarkable men of the railroad
world. He started upon his bust
ness career as telegraph opera
tor, and has steadily risen until,
not on V is he president of one Of
the greatest railway systems of
the country, but absolute dictator
Of its business policy and general
management as well. 1t may be
truthfullN said that Marvin
Hughitt runs the Northwestern
railway.
The Northwestern is 4 great
railway system, soon to have the
most magnificent passenger termi-
nal and station in the world, yet
the system has been built up SO
quietly that the world at large
hardly knows what the. letters C..
& n. w. mean in railroad affairs.
But, nevertheless, the North
western is a railroad, and not the
toy jack in-the- box of tinanciers.
1t has never figured in deals, and
its president never gets himself
written up as railroad manipula-
tor.
Marvin Hughitt has not taken a
day off from the routine of his
daily office grind in fourteen
years. Other railroad presidents
may enjoy their long summer
vacations, but Marvin Hughitt
never takes a holiday. Others
may 60 sailing off to Europe or
the antipodes twice or three times
a year, he never gets far away
from the company's Offices in
Chicago, unless it be on q tour OF
inspection in his private car,
which is merely another dingy
office on wheels.
The "old man" of the North
western will not retire. It will be
more like him to die in the har-
ness.

MiIeSyiIIe Farmer Successful

Charles f. Morgan, living one
mile east Of here, undoubtedly
raised the best corn in Stanley
county this year, probably the
best west of the Missouri, and
about as good as any in the state.
He had in about 100 acres from
which he had expected to harvest
about $500 bushels but the grain
is yielding much better than that
and he will have over 5000
bushels. Some Of the corn is
yielding exceptionally we'll. They
finished gathering 1900 bushels
this week from 25 acre patch,
an average of 80 bushels per acre.
JAKE keleher, who is probably as
swift in the corn field AS any body
III ;hc country, husked lO5 bushels
" ednesday, an impossible feat
without heavy yield of corn. He
stated that he had gathered con-
siderable corn in eastern localities
and he Judged some of Mr.. Nor
gtn's corn would yield 20 bushels
per acre. The sod corn of course
cuts down the total average for
the 100 acres.
Mr.. Morgan is follower of
tie Campbell system of soil cul-
ture and believes in cultivating
the land in dry weather. When
the drouth came last July he hired
extra men and put them to plow-
ing his corn, and the drier it be-
came the more he plowed, stirring
the surface of the soil only. His
success is an example of the good
results to be obtained from the
system. When our farmers all
learn to cultivate the land scienti-
tically every quarter will be made
to yield double what it will under
the haphazard plan. Slipshod
farming cannot be made success
in any locality. 1t must be con-
Quoted on plans that will conform
with climatic conditions. In this
semi arid district every farmer
should become student of Camp
BELLS system of soil culture. 1t
tells how to conserve the moisture,
to keep it stored in the soil for use
in time of need. There are some
who will take heed Of the success
Of other farmers, there are others
who will plod along in the same
old way. To which class do you
belong!- MilesviIle Citizen.
