ed about the days when a railroad
was being built about every month
between Yankton to Portlandville
on the Sioux, but that measly road
was never built and finally Yankton
got the Dakota Southern in 1873, and
was even happy in voting 5000, 600 in
bonds to help build it. Mr.. Stone
has watched this beautiful valley
grow from the time a few pioneers
were scattered along the banks of the
Sioux river to its present condition OF
beauty and wealth. He fought grass
hoppers and passed through all the
trials incident to frontier life for the
Sioux river was the frontier until the

ones hair is safe any where.

the LEADER is the best paper in the

compliment, but it represents the
foundation for success in every walk

truth if it hopes to retain the conf

LEADER finds favor with it's readers
from the generous support given it.
Superintendent Lawrence informed
the LEADER that the teachers meet

that every teacher In the county was
