ASSESSED SHEEP.

Dupree, s. D., July 1.-THE board
of county commissioners and the as
SCISSOR of Ziebach county have been
busily engaged in the assessment OF
the large number of sheep running
in the county. 1t is estimated that
more than 10000 should be placed
on the lists for taxation but the
owners claim that this number is
greatly overestimated. An indepe1d'
ent count is being made and the
authorities expect to collect the full
amount of taxes.
A vigorous protest ia being made
by the settlers and Indians over the
policy of the government in attempt
ing to lease the open lands to the
sheep owners 1t Is claimed that
numerous trespasses occur upon
growing crops and that claims for
damages are ignored. The Indians
claim that the sneep destroy all
their pasture and hay. A sheep
range is left in such condition that
it is of no use for other stock and is
said to do as much damage as a
fire. It is also claimed that the de-
partment of Indian affairs has no
right or authority to lease the un-
occupied lands for the reason that
the Indians have always voted
against such leasing. Complaint has
also been made charging that the
owners of the sheep have persistent
ly trespassed upon school lands. I'm
less the government changes its pol
icy the matter will be a source OF
much trouble and litigation.

making of any gar
nent. Here are a
corset cover and
petticoat especially
designed to be
made thereof, and
they are both so
simple that there
is very little time
required for the
making. The corset
cover consists of
two straight pieces
Tapped one over

joined under the
arms. The petit
coat consists of one
straight strip that
is laid in plaits at
the upper edge
while the fulncss
above the plaits is
cut out to form
cores which are
scanned together.
OF course, plain
material can be
used if preferred,
with the edges
trimmed, but
hounCing seems cs-
pecially designed
for these garments
and the houncing
can be lace in place
of embroidery if
something daintier
and finer is wanted.
In the back view
the petticoat is
shown made of mes
saline silk with just
a little band of
trimming finishing
the hem, and the
design is an excel
lent one for such
use as we'll as for
embroidery. The

WAsHrNGroN, Feb. I7.-President Bor-

elective term as President Of the Domini-

the Presidency now by virtue OF the ac

candidacy has been drawn up.
There Is no doubt that there will be
strong opposition to the election Of

last summer and a revolution resulted
which probably would have been sue

You even take from the senate the
power Of confirming the Governors an
