This is one of the most important

1t is estimated that 5000 men have
passed thru Sioux City since the first
OF July looking for work, and more
than 500 have been accommodated. A
usual opening for jobless men, that of
railroad work, is now practically closed
Tor few Of the railroads are building
now, and those of them that are have
FORCES full or overcrowded.
The great number of laborers, who,
following the early harvest in Kan
sas swept over the Dakotas could find
no employment, and now are COM
mencing to find their way back toward
the east, ready to take any kind of
work, and, falling that, to commit
crime, if necessary, in order to live.
The unusual number of burglary, hold
up and vagrancy cases in the last few
weeks may be explained in this way.

One man, in his desperation to get
out of the country, sold a team of
heavy draft horses, fine road horse,
a new wagon and fine set of harness
for $175. Another man sold, or rather
wants to sell, a threshing outfit valued
at $4,000 or $4,000, for $4,000, and even
at that price he can find no takers" :"
A man from the western part of
South Dakota says that there is not
even green grass in some parts of the
state. One South Dakota man offered
a Sioux City banker his 900 acres Of
land for the price of the improvements,
namely. about 81 an acre. The bank
err could not see his way clear to take
the land.
The city missions are filled to ca
pacity with men out of jobs. and the
recruiting stations are doing land
office business, offering as they do, a
prospect Of food and lodging. and an
additional recompense. Thirty men
have applied at the army station since
the first of June, and of this number
nineteen have been accepted. The navy
office reports thirty-two applicants
since the 18th of June and eighteen ac-
ceptances. In the period from Feb. 1
to June Is. there were but thirty nine
applications. and summer is supposed
to be the dull time in the recruiting
