Sioux County's First
Delinquent Tax Sale
County Auditor Colville Conducts Fir,t
Delinquent Tx Sale Tuesday-Not
Many Bidders Present

The first delinquent tax sale held
in>Sioux county, was conducted by
Auditor Colville at the court house
Tuesday fore.bon.
The list was small and only a few
bidders were present. C. Christen-
son bid in several tracts for himself
and other parties. Miss Meta Run
van bid III some descriptions, while
the remainder was either bid in by
J. a. Wells or County Treasurer
Endrcs.
All the land on which proof has
been made, but no patent issued to
the homesteade=, was left alone by
the spectators. There is a ques-
tion if these taxes are legally levied
and a test case should be brought in
the courts at an early date to de-
termine the issue.
So far as the individual owner is
concerned, it is cheaper for him to
pay the taxes than to maintain an
action in court to have. the tax levy
set aside. The Pioneer would sug-
gest that the states attorney take
some action to have. this question
settled, and let the county bear the
cost.

Walter Smith Draws
$50 Fine For Assault
Walter Smith Of sslfr;dse, I. ci.ea
Hearing Here Saturday Before Jus.
tice Of the Peace Osarum

Saturday morning ali the parties
interested in the case of Walter
Smith of Selfridgc, arrested Monday,
December 4th, for assault and bat.
terry on Martin Swift, pioneer ranch
er of Selfridge, came over to Fort
Yates and the hearing was held at
the court house before Justice of the
Peace A. U. Ostrum.
The case being simple assault and
battery, Justice Ostrum asked that
the parties interested act as their
own attorneys, this action being
most fair in view Of the fact that
Smith stated that he was unable TO-,
retain an attorney.
After hearing the evidence SUBJ
nitted by both parties and taking
the matter under consideration,
Judge Ostrum imposed a fine of $50
and the costs, of the case, making a
total penalty imposed on the de-
fendent something over $50 and at
the same time gave the defendent'
some sound fatherly advice as to
his conduct in the future.

Big Prairie Fire

A big prairie fire swept the north
western part of the reservation last
Thursday, destroying hundreds of
dollars worth Of property in its path.
The fire started along the road just
north of the Cannonball bridge
about noon and before the fire
fighters could reach there, the fire,
famed by a high wind had gained
a big headway. Considerable hay
in the path Of the fire was saved
only by the quick work Of some of
the people. Perphaps the biggest
losers were Dick Trackhider and the
Government Station. Mr.. Track
hider lost practically all of his win
ter supply Of hay besides his barn.
It is thought that a cigarette drop
ped in the grass was the cause of
the fire.-Shields Enterprise.

Stockraising Is Making
Rapid Strides in N. D.
Farmers of North Dakota Are Beginning
To Realize stoclxrai.ing and Dairy
ing Insures Prosperity

Much interest has been aroused
of the notable increase in stock in
the state and upon investigation the
Press Bureau of the North Dakota
Development League at Grand
Forks has found that real evidence
of this can be found in the records
Of Commissioner Of Agriculture and
Labor Flint.
In 1905, a year Of heavy immi-
grafton, 1909 stockbands were issued
from the commissioners Office. By
1911, several good crop years had
so reduced the interest in livestock
that but 191 brands were issued.
Then came a couple of poor crop
years, and the stock began to pick
up. 1t reached its pinnacle for this
state in 1915, with a total of 1874
new brands~to date. In November
80 brands were issued, and if Dec
ember holds up as well the total
will be $50, as compared with $40
for 1915.
Increased receipts of breeding
stock are shown by the admission
of tuberculin tests in 1916 of Is, 1862
head, as compared with 753 in 1911.
In 1916 13,SOS stockers and feeders
were admitted on inspection as
against 1854 in 1911.
According to Flint, until recently
few people thought of coming ,o|
North Dakota to buy bred
stock. In 1916, however. there left
the state after being tuberculin
tested 2,172 pure-bred cattle. In
1911 but 895.
The dairying interest has kept
pace with the stock. In 1911,
North Dakota had S3 creameries
and 18O cream stations. In 1916
there were 76 creameries and All
cream stations, indicating wider
diffusion Of aairying and a closer
concentration of creameries. In 1911
North Dakota reported 188,6S7
larry cows, while in 1916 there
we're 221, ,892.s In <19l1, the
;otai receipts for da1rying wore So,

mated at about S5.277.77O:
