JJONESTEEU 8. D. , Aug. 17. The
prospect of encountering the Dukotn
blizzards on the bleak prnlrlcH of the
Kosebiul next February U not en-
chnntlng to the nverngo liomostcndor.
The regulations of the land olllco re
quire a reHlUencc to bo perfected _ In
side of six months. The homesteaders
have figured out that would roaulro
them to bo ready to receive callers In
their sod houses by the middle of
February , and It doesn't look good to
them.
So a petition Is beltiK circulated hy
them , addressed to the gcnornl land
ofllce , ( inking nn extension of two
months , taking them to April lioforo
proof of residence must bo visible.
The homesteaders : want to build
their In the uprltiK and put In their
first cropn ; but they don't want to
stay on the land all winter. To bo
compelled to have a residence per
fected by February would almo t com
pel them to stay on the laud all win
ter , because to build n IIOUHO now
anil leave It till February would bo
equivalent to turning It over to ma
rauders. To build In February would
be about Impossible. It Is believed
the department will permit the exten
sion If It can bo dtfiio legally.
About 25 per cent of the fortunate
ones are buying supplies and Immedi
ately occupying their lands with the
Idea of making Improvements without
delay. The others generally want to
wait until spring to do It. All over
the reservation wagons can bo seen
nil day long , hauling lumber and oth-
er building materials to the quarters
that have been filed on. But the larg
est activity Is In the towns. Every
one of them 1ms three or four lumber
yaids , all doing a rushing business.
The only Interest that can present a
showing of bnnk clearances approach
ing that of the lumbermen Is the sa
loon business. &rhla continues to
flourish like a green bay horse on a
Ponca creek claim with the grass as
high as his back.

It Is dangerous to express nn opin
ion as to which town Is doing the
best business. However , Gregory
seems at present to be In the lend.
All kinds of buildings nro being erect
ed In the towns , nnd already nil nec

forts to get n sntlsfnctory road sys
tem laid out and developed In a sys
tematic way nro afoot , for It Is declared -
clared by the settlers that nothing
will do more to make the land valu
able tlmn to secure the best roads In
the state.

The storm of Wednesday afternoon
that covered this section may haven
further effect of boosting the wheat
and oat prices , especially If It Is fol
lowed by damp weather , ns much of
the grain Is likely to spoil In the
shock.
A great many farmers have learned
by their experience of the past few
years that it pays to put their grain
in the .stack as soon ns It Is cut , and
the product of numerous Holds were
In the stack before the storm struck ,
but there arc still a large number of
ilelds In the shock and the grain Is
quite likely to spoil unless It dries
out quickly nnd thoroughly , while that
.n . the stack will Improve In quality
intll threshing time arrives. The
more grain that spoils In the shook
will therefore give the farmers who
stacked their grain higher prices , nnd
.inder the present prices farmers can
well afford to go to the extra work
and expense of stacking.
Some wheat and onts have already
; > een threshed nnd is coming on the
mnrkot , but is of an inferior quality ,
that which Is good for milling being
of rather rare occurrence.
The organization recently launched
to help the farmers control the market
s another factor that will bo an In-
luence toward bringing higher prices.
Nebraska farmers have recently re-
elved a circular from President Kv-
orltt of the American Society of Equi
ty urging them to make n minimum
price of $1.20 a bushel for No. 2 red
winter wheat , Chicago market basis.
Kvorltt estimates the winter wheat
crop in the United States at .1C..000,000
bushels and spring wheat nt 210,000-
000 bushels. To reduce this to n flour-
making basis there must bo deducted
an Immense quantity of low grndo
wheat , caused from rust and wet
weather. Much of this , he says. Is
tit only for food. He estimates the
Hhilnknge at 25,000,000 bushels. Ho
bases his figures on estimates re
ceived from 12.000 farmers. Of this
number he snys 11,122 say they do not
need to sell nt once , nnd he strongly
urges that the farmers unite In con
trolling the market by hiding the vis
ible supply out of sight of the elevat
or men and wheat gamblers of Chica
go , and thus force prices to their own
satisfaction.

Committees representing the con
ductors and railroad trainmen are
holding a conference with Superinten
dents Hughes and Reynolds today ,
presenting grievances of trainmen.
They omplnln of the. present system
of runs , which takes them Irregularly
to Superior , Hastings , Lincoln nm !
elsewhere , nnd frequently keeps them
away from home a week nt a time
The engineers presented a slmllnr
grievance a week ago. What the rail
road men nsk Is that they be assignee :
certain territory over which their
runs will extend , allowing those who
11 vo ! n Fiomont to make the Soutl
PIntto runs nnd those living here to
make the main line runs enst nnd west
from Norfolk , returning direct to their
homes for their lay-overs. The sys
tem of first In flrftt out of either Fre
mont or Norfolk In nny direction , Is
not at nil satisfactory to the men , and
they hope to secure a ruling from to
day's conference that will allow them
to bo home regularly.

CommlxHlonor Clco. I ) . Hmlth. ex
plaining the action of the county
board In regard to the lirldKU work
for the coming year , says that the
fact that the commlsslonorH In their
Individual illHtrlctH have been an-
thoi'lzvd by the board to huso the
work of their districts done , iimountH
to nothing except that the enthe
boaid IH not compelled to meet and
consider every emergency that may
arise and let the job
With the brldgo fund some $1(1.000 (
behind there IH no bridge work POM-
slblo under the law except tlnotigh
the emergency clause , and no bids
can bo asked under Iho law with no
funds In thu treasury. The commlH-
shiners are thoieforu forced to lin-
provlxo until mioh time IIH the lux-
levy shall Forvo to even up mailers
with the brldgo fund. The Moods of
the past few yeais have made heavy
inroads on the money available for
bridge work. Many structures lm\o
been washed out and had to ho 10-
placed until the bridge fund has abso
lutely censed to exist. There IH yet
a considerable demand for bihlgo
woi k , nnd when the proper applica
tion Is mndu for work thu comnilHslon-
ers nro compelled to net , monuy or no
money.
The Idea of having the commission
ers oversee the work In their ro poc-
tlvo districts was not received with
favor by the board without careful
deliberation. KstlmatoH on lumber
woio furnished by five or six lumbar
dealers of the county and the value
of work was likewise determined af
ter consultation with n number of re
liable brldiru builders nnd each com
missioner was bound by the board to
get his lumber and his work dona In
side these llgures to preclude any pos
sibility of overcharging the county
when the time for settlement arrives ,
and with that there was nn under
standing that only such work should
be done as was found to bo absolutely
necessary. The commissioners aio
distinctly In favor of getting the
fund In condition nt the earliest po.s-
slblo moment and to that end will
make the present Htrnctnios do serv
ice as long as It IH possible with only
such repairs ns aio absolutely cssen-
Inl. The law says thuy must build
nd repair bridges whoio such work
s required by the public nnd It also
ays they iiitiht not award coutiacls
vlthout money on hand to pay for
ho work when II Is completed. Ho
ng between "tho dovll and the deep
iluc sea" ns It wore , the commlsMoii-
rH arc endeavoring to make the licit
> f It and arc coming on the counlv
vlth the llghto.st touch possible * until
ho fund recovers from HH
I rain.
They rcallxo and the people of the
county will not dispute the fact that
t will cost a litllo moio to got the 10
intred woik done with the nndci-
staudlng that the workmen nnd the
umber men must wait a year or HO
for their pay , than though thuy could
sot the work done nnd bo nblo to way
m completion , "Here Is your money , "
and have the cash to hand out.
Thcio Is nn inclination In some
inarters to criticise the commission
ers for their action and the matter
IIIH thorofoio boon explained by Mr
Smith who undoubtedly desired n
statement made In their behalf.
