NEW DEPOT FOR MITCHELL.
Milwaukee Road Viii Build a $500
Structure.

Superintendent Collins, of the Chi
cago. Milwaukee and st. Paul railway.
has announced In Mitchell that his
company had definitely decided to
erect the new passenger station which
was promised three years ago. The
plans have. been drawn and a very
handsome building will be put up. MIR.
Collins stated that the structure would
be 200 feet long, rs feet wide. and a
portion of IL two stories high. The
building will be placed across the
south end of Main street, with ar arch
entrance for teams TO drive into and
deposit passengers. Brick will be used
for building material and the building
will cost about $4,000 when complet-
ed. Mr.. Collins Immediately put a force
Of laborers at work to tear up four
switch tracks north of the present de-
pot to max room for the new station.
Work will be carried on throughout
the winter months with the idea of
having the building completed by Aug.
|, 1909. The erection Of such a large
depot leads to the belief that the com
pany Is preparing to handle a portion
of its Pacific coast business through
Mitchell after an extension has been
built northwest of Rapid City and con-
Meeting up with the coast extension
line. Surveyors have been at work all
summer on this.

BIG SHIPMENTS OF WHEAT.
More Than 1000 Cars Sen Out Of
Aberdeen Territory.

An interesting estimate OF the num-
Der Of cars of wheat shipped from sta
lions in Aberdeen territory during the
fiscal year closing June 80, 1908, has
been issued by the Milwaukee railroad,
together with an estimate OF the proba-
bic shipments from the same territory
during the present fiscal year. Re-
ports from forty-three towns In the
James river division In that territory
give the 1908 shipments as 4,425 cars.
The estimate for this year Is 6.403 cars.
Twenty-si nj stations in the Huron and
Dakota division shipped a total OF
$6.193 cars last year and this yea the
estimate Is placed at 7.46s cars. This
indicates that the wheat crop this year
is greatly inexcess Of that raised last
year.

POPULATION FIGURES.
Stanley County Shows Greatest Gain
Since 1905.

Doane Robinson has been making
population figures and has worked
from the basis of the school population
OF the state. He uses the same ratio
of school population, and the total
population as was shown in the 1905
census of the state. On this basis the
state at the time OF the last school
census had a population of 500, 900,
estimating the Indian population at
the same total figure which was shown
in 1905. On that basis Stanley coun-
ty takes the lead In gain of population,
increasing from 2,649 in 1905 to 2O.-
EOS at the present time. On the same
basis. practically all the new counties
of the state show a good increase, but
the older counties in the southeastern
portion, show reductions instead OF
gains in population.

Locate Near Pierre.

Representatives OF a colony of Penn
sylvania Dutch Menonites have been
looking oyer the country around Pierre
and did some investing for themselves
before they left for the east. They
will be back next spring, and will bring
other representatives Of their church
with them. The women accompanied
the men who were at Pierre, and their
gnrb attracted a great deal of attention
on the part OF the curious when they
appeared on the street. When these
people locate, good farming is assured,
and they are q valuable addition to any
community In which they locate. The
chances are that the purchases made
by these people will mean a good sized
colony by the end OF another year.
