I! Mi MI KUS tiONE Range Cattle af I lie Dakota! Fast Disappearing'. A correspondent at D(adwood, S. D., writes as follows of the suspension of one of i he largest cattle companies lu the Uoited States near Deadwood : The Franklin Cattle company, the most profitable in the state of South Dakota, has sold its interests to the American Livestock and Loan company of Denver. The day of range cattle Las passed. The day of the big cattleman is also gone, and the wide stretches of country once covered by thousands of head ol roving cattle are now being dotted bere and there with tiny houses, the evidence of the influx oi the small farmer. This chance in the character f the country north and west ot the Black Hills has been known and recognized for some time, but the sell ing out of this large corpsration has, more than any other other one thing, brought the aitual facts to notice. me r ranann uaiue company, or ganized in the spring of 18S5, has been not only the largest, but one of tb most profitable organizations in th state. It was at first a sort of a family affair, coneiatinS of Harris Franklin now known as the richest msn South Dakota; Mrs. Harris Franklin, thei son, N. F. Franklin, and Ben Bear. Not less than 45,000 head of stock comprised the company's ownings, and its annual shipments, averaging about 10,000 head, were largely instrumental n making the town Belle Fourche tha which it will never be again the largest ingle shipping point for cattle in the world. In the year 1897 the company was re organized under the name of Harris Franklin & Co., and E. H. Harrimsn, ol railroad fame, and 8. W. Allerton, of Chicago, became heavily interested in the proiect. Success continued to at tead the company. During its existence it paid out in dividends over five times its capital, and the rail oads have profit ed by its shipments to the extent of $1,000,000. The recent deal includes all of the company's holdings with the exception of a few thousand head of cattle in Nebraska and Wyoming. These will be shipped during the coming fall, and the Franklin Cattle company and all its holdings will then be a thing of thepn6t. This change in the stock-raising in dustry of the west is due not only to the fact that homesteaders are dividing the land up into small holdings and are be coming perminent settlers, but also be cause the sheepmen, with their im mense herds, are coming in and crowd ing out the cattle. The Evening Telegram sums up the result of the storm of snow and sleet in Portland as follows: Three horses killed. Two men injured. Overland trains blockaded by snow. Street railway traffic suspended. Ornamental trees and gardens destroyed. Telephone and telegraph wires prostrated. Public schools demoralized. City park nearly wrecked. Retail business temporarily paralyzed. MORROW COUNTY LADIES WIN t'EXClXCi OF CiOVJt:u..'UF..'T I.AM Aire. C. E. Redfteld mi 4 .TI1 Audrey IVoolery will go to Jaiii-c. town Exposition.

PLAX A NEU' STATU a circular caiing attention to an amendment o the act entitled "An act to prevent unlawful occupancy of the public lands." has been sent out by Secretary Hitchcock to ali of the special agents and local land offices. It is is the desire of the department to give the provisions cf the law es wide pub licity as possible. The cir ular follows "It shall be the duty of the special agent on receipt of any char e or com plaint or upon in.ormation being ac quired by him from any source, that an unlawful inclosure is being maintained by any person or persons, association, or corporation, to at once proceed to ee- cvre sufficient data, including a degcrip tion of the lands inclosed, with reason able certainty, not necesrarily by metes ind bounds, nor by Governmental sub divisions of surveyed land, but only so that the inclosure may be identified and the person or pe-sons guilty of the vio lation, as nearly as may be, and by de scription if the name can not, on rea sonable inquiry, be ascertained, and to at once submit such case, with the data thus obtained, to the United States at torney for prosecution. "It shall be the duty of the special agent, and he shall be so instructed, to be alert and vigilant to detect the ex istence of unlawful inclosures in bis die trict and to proceed in accordance there, with as hereinabove directed, and .that ha is not to construe bis duties as re quiring that, before proceeding in the matter of an unlawful inclosure, there must first be filed with him a formal complaint by some person or Jpersons acquainted with the facts, bat it snail be his duty, as hereinabove stated, to take the initiative himself."

This would leave Wenatchee and North Yakima and Ellensburg in the State of Washington, of which Olympia is the capital. Possible opposition from Idaho to the proposed plan will be met by extending the present Ihaho boundary west to meet the same parallel that now con stitutes the east boundary of California; thus all that portion of the present State of Oregon bounded on the south by Nevada would be added to Idaho. Idaho would gain more territory than she loses, and be more symmetrical. No opposition is anticipated from Southern Idaho on the proposed basis, as it would gain such cities as Walla Walla and Pendleton. Oregon and Washington would be the only states to suffer serious loss of territory, and op position from the western part of each of these states would have to be over come by the promoters of the State of Lincoln. $150.
