Make Milwaukee
Build a Bridge

Washington, d. C.,-Congress-
man Harry L. Candy, of the Third
district South Dakota, has introdu.
ced a resolution in the House
which has for its aim the compell-
ing Of the Milwaukee railroad to
build permanent bridge over the
Missouri river between Chamber
lain and Oacoma, replacing the
temporary structure.
At the last session of the South
Dakota Legislature, Congress was
memoralized to compel the railroad
to construct a permanent bridge at
Chamberlain. 1t was stated that
the present bridge is unsafe, that
it goes out from one to four times
a year and that railway trains are
liable at any time especially during
the early spring, to be precipitated
into the river.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Gan
DIV follows:
Be it enacted by the House of
representatives, that the Chicago
Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway
company, its successors and as
signs, are hereby authorized to
construct, maintain and approaches
thereto, across the Missouri river
at point suitable to the interests
of navigation, said bridge to ex-
tend from the west bank of said
river in the county of Lyman to a
point in or near the city of Cham
berlain in Brule county, in the
State Of South Dakota, in accord
ance with the provisions of an act
entitled an Act to regulate the
construction Of bridges over navi
gable waters. ." Approved March
"a, 1906.
Sec. 2. That the act of Con-
gress approved February 9, 1905,
which granted to the White River
Valley Company, its successors
and assigns the right to construct
and maintain a pontoon and pile
bridge across said Missouri river

Lyman County
ProSpering.

The people in Lyman county are
not poor by any means and we be-
Iieve that it is our duty to invite
others to move in among us and
enjoy some of our prosperity. The
last census shows US with a popul-
alton of 7,4I2 and we could sup
port 20, 900 right now. We have
according to this same authority
a., $40 chickens which produced
last year 27I,837 dozen eggs. We
produced 44,oo5, 900 pounds OF
milk, 1874, 8oI pounds of butter and
sold 1867, 100 pounds of cream.
Now that looks pretty good does it
not? But we could do better than
that and we could do better too it
the competition was keener. More
than that, we have more than FIVE
head of cattle fore every man, wo-
man and child in the county. Two
head of horses for every man,
woman and child in the county.
To Us it seems like there is every
reason why we should proudly
hold up to the world the advanta-
ges of living in Lyman county.
For health there is no better place
on earth and that is the first thing
to be considered.-Oacoma Argus

PERSHING USING
MEXICAN ROADS

San Antonio, Tex, March 2ss--Con-
firmation that General Pershing already
has been using the Northwestern rail-
road for transportation OF troops was
secured by General Funston yesterday
from what was said to be an unofficial
source This information included q re-
port Of the overturning of two cars and
the injuring Of 10 troopers OF the Tenth
cavalry and several horses Three OF
the men were reported seriously in
jured.
The accident occurred while the cars
were being taken over a shoo-fly that
had been built around the CumDre.
tunnel south Of Casas Grandes. One OF
the rails gave way and the oars rolled
down an embankment
No reports from General Pershins
were received yesterday, but his silence
caused no uneasiness at headquarters,
where the chief concern continued to
be the problem OF getting supplies into
Mexico without railroad.
Exactly where Colonel Dodd's cav
airy is now. or Into how many detaeh-
ments it has been divided, was un-
known at General Funston's head
quarters.
whereabouts OF PeFshlna.
The exact whereabouts Of General
Pershing also remained unreported.
but this lack OF information created no
uneasiness, for General PeTshing still
has orders to work out his own prob
lens.
Full realization OF the danger Into
which some OF the advanced detach-
ments must be moving was acknow-
lodged. Villas known ability as q. d.
rector Of ambuscades has aroused
frank expressions of fear among army
officers that he may catch some OF tho !.

Openly expressed pessimism as TO an
early capture OF villa now is heard ire
quently. Unless checked by the forces
Of the defaeto government. or unless
he himself decides to turn and fight,
there appeared no reason yesterday why
the chase should cease until Villa had
led the Americans through twisting
mountain trails and over waterless
wastes fer another three hundred miles
and more,
More auto trucks have been asked
for by General Funston. and when
they are placed in service there viii be
