Immense PHOSPHATE DEPOSITS.

Phosphate lands which a year or
two ago were withdrawn from entry
for settlement by the federal govern
ment, constitute, it is said, the great
est known phosphate deposit in the
world. These lands comprise nearly
the whole Of Uinta county in Wyo-
ming. and portions Of Morgan, Rich
and Cache counties in Utah, and Of
Bear Lake, Bannock, Bingham and
Fremont counties in Idaho, making in
all about 1900 square miles Of terri
tory which is more or less underlain
by phosphate rock. Besides these
vast natural deposits, 1t is pointed out
that the gases from the smelters at
Butte and Anaconda, which are very
injurious to vegetation, may be made
to yield sulphuric acid for the manu-
facture Of superphospnate fertilizers.

New York.-John Bigelow, Sr., dip.
lomatist and author, died at his home
in this city, aged ~ninety-four years.
Mr.. Bigelow, sometimes termed the
first gentleman of New York" was
almost the last connecting link be-
tween the great men Of the first half
of the nineteenth century and the
present day. Born at Maiden, Ulster
county, N. Y, in 1917, of a well-known
family, he vas prominently associated
with the great men and the determin-
ing movements of the country during
his entire life.
In 1S49, at the invitation of William
Cullen Bryant, Mr.. Bigelow became
an editor of the New York Evening
Post, in which position he continued
until 1860. Under his editorship the
paper came to a great influence.
Sainte Beuve's critical letters were
published under his supervision. Walt
Whitman was a reporter and later q
war correspondent under Mr.. Bigelow.
Artemus Ward worked for the paper
at the time; and it was at this period
that Bret Harte was remarkably
regular at the office on pay days"

which made Lincoln't election pos

urging the editor went as minister to

the civil war.
In France Mr.. Bigelow succeeded to
much the same power and position
that Benjamin Franklin and Thomas
Jefferson had held more than so years
previously.
Il was at this time that Mr.. Bige-
low discovered Franklin's "Autobiog-
raphy," of which he edited the author

Sioux Falls.-Dr. w. G. Smith, q
member of the state board of railroad
commissioners, who has just returned
from Chicago, has brought the peo-
pie of that part of the state lying
west of the Missouri river, and Of four
counties lying east Of the river, a
substantial New Years present in the
form of free freight rates on seed
grain which will be needed for the
coming season.
The railroads which have consented
to grant free freight rates on seed
grain hauled to those portions of
South Dakota mentioned are the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy, the Chica-
go d Northwestern, the Fort Pierre &
Rapid City, the Chicago, Milwaukee &
Puget Sound, the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul and the Minneapolis & st.

After enumerating the above rail-
roads which have granted the rate.
DR.. Smith stated that they have
agreed to haul to county commission
ers In the counties tributary to their
lines west of the Missouri river in car
lots, free Of freight charges, seed
grain from Minneapolis and points on
their line in eastern South Dakota,

grain at the price at point Of loading,
so that the farmer will get the bene-
fit of the free freight"
