FIRST CAR OF FREIGHT BILLED
TO NEW TOWN.
BONESTEEL EXTENSION NEXT
The Only Thing That Can Possibly
Delay Work on the Bonesteel Exten
sion Will be a Shortage In Building
Material , Which IB Scarce.
. . The first car of freight ever billed
to Shoshonl , Wyo. , Just passed through
Norfolk ( o the new town nt the edge
' of the ShoBhonl reservntlon In Wjom-
* > Ing , to which the Northwestern rail-
rend has Just now completed Its now
line of mils from Cnspor. The trains
arc now running Into Shoshonl , and
the company Is ready to handle the
passenger rush this summer.
The material that has boon going
through Norfolk Junction by the trainload -
load to Shoshonl Is now mostly all
hauled , and the next tralnloads of
building material that are looked for
will bo those which pass through en-
'route to the Rosebud reservation.
Active work will , It Is expected , begin -
gin out of Bonesteel for the Trypp
county line within a very short time ,
and It Is said that the thirty miles of
new line will bo rapidly rushed to
completion. The only thing that could
possibly delay the extension will bo a
shortage of material , as this class of
stuff Is very scarce just at the present
time.
Three cailoads of fine horses , going
to Bonesteel to work on the new road ,
passed through Norfolk today.

Rural Carrier Show had an experi
ence with his mule yesterday which
was better than the "Maade" episodes.
He drove the mule out on the route
and the animal became frightened at
so many passing bicycles and explod-
ng firecrackers. The mule finally
lunged off into a side ditch and Driver
Show did the Hylng-leap stunt , land
ing out in front of the mule. Without
a driver , the mule quickly turned
about and dashed toward Hadar. In
some manner the harness became un-
Ijltched , so that the cart was left along
the road. The only way that the mule
was caught at all , was because the
harness wrapped around the galloping
animal's legs and acted as a brake.
Plans are now being made by the
Elks of Norfolk who are going to Den
ver , to start on Sunday , July 15 , in
stead of Monday. Several side trips
such as the ride around the loop , the
Pike's peak trip and a Journey to Ute
Pass , are planned , and it Is thought
by the now arrangement that more
time may be had in the mountains
Some fifteen local Elks have slgnifiet
their definite intention to take the
trip , and It promises to be one of the
Jolliest excursions over run out o
Norfolk. The car will hold about
twenty-eight. The Pullman will be re
tained In Denver for constant use by
the Norfolk contingent so that i
will answer the purpose of a hotel
There is still room for a few more
Elks , and the committee would be gla <
to have names Immediately of those
who care to go ,
WHOLESALE ACTION HAS BEEN
TAKEN DY THE CITY.
WERE TOO MANY ACCIDENTS
As a Result of Two Severe Accidents
Which Resulted From Dad Walks ,
Mayor Friday Ordered Walks Torn
Out Mayor Is Commended for It.
Street Commissioner Oscar lUchoy
ins boon tearing up things right nnd
oft and In connection with the side-
valk proposition of Norfolk during the
iiist few days , and his tearing IUIH
icon of the literal sort. Walks all
vor town have been torn Up from
holr tracks , and now ones ordered to
all In. Some parts of Norfolk today
ook like n tornado had swept through
ho town.
The aggressive campaign has fol-
nwed accidents that have occurred In
own recently as a direct result of bad
valks. At least two persons have
icon quite seriously Injured by falling
over bad walks , and Mayor Friday
ms become tired of such occurrences.
\ccordlngly , ho Instructed the street
ommlssloner to go out and tear up
nil the walks that were bad In town.
'he result has been that many blocks
of walks have been overturned
> romptly.
Those who have mot accidents on
he walks are Mrs. Fannlo Tronopohl
and Mrs. J. K. Boas. Mrs. Trenopohl
) roke her arm and has been unable to
vork for several weeks. Mrs. Boas
only n few days ago was tripped by a
ooso board nnd received very severe
njurles about the face. Two teeth
vero broken and others cracked , be-
Ides bruising her face badly. She
ms been compelled to postpone n
rip cast on account of the accident.
In some Instances owners of walks
orn up are said to be Indignant nnd
Icinnncl satisfaction.
"I nm glad to sec this campaign for
icw walks go on , " said a business
nnn today , "and I commmend Mayor
"rlday for the action he has taken.
Without regard to the merits of the
natter of tearing up the walks , I am
glad to see some of these old and dan-
jerous walks , which have been a men
ace for years , taken out as they ought
o be. "
NORFOLK FRIENDS OF DEMO
CRATIC LEADER , FAVOR HIM.
WILL HAVE NO OPPOSITION
Those of Norfolk Who Have Fought
Battles for Bryan Before , and Who
Know Him Personally , Say He Is
Stronger Today Than Ever.
[ From Monday's Dally. ]
Norfolk friends of William Jennings
Bryan declare that the famous Ne
braska leader , when he returns home
u August , will be met by the largest
welcoming party ever seen In 'the state
or country , and they further believe
that Mr. Bryan Is nearer the presi
dency than any other man In the Unit
ed States.
Just at the present time the leading
democrats of Norfolk , among whom
there are many long-time personal
friends of the Lincoln statesman , say
that he will have the solid backing of
ils own state and that , according to
present Indications , he will have no
opposition for the presidential nomi
nation.
On the day that Mr. Bryan rode out
of Nebraska in a Pullman coach head
ed for the orient , by way of San Fran
cisco , E. P. Weatherby of Norfolk ac
companied him as far as Columbus
from Omaha , on the Union Pacific.
That night , when Mr. Weatherby re
turned home , he informed his friends
icre that he believed Mr. Bryan would
> e the next democratic nominee for
the presidency. Today he Is of tbo
same opinion still , as are all other
democrats of the city.
"I can see no opposition to Bryan in
the presidential race , so far as the
lemocratlc nomination la concerned , "
said Dr. A , Bear , one of tha prominent
democrats of the state. "He is more
conservative than Roosevelt , and will
iave many friends whom Roosevelt
acks because of his radical Ideas.
Roosevelt has been too radical , In my
opinion , along many lines. Ho has
stirred up the packing houses until
every western sUto will suffer. And ,
as a matter of fact , It is a good deal as
Chancellor Day said , if the conditions
n the packing houses wore half as
md as pictured , half of us would bo
dead. Mr. Bryan will be more con
servative than Mr. Roosevelt. Ho will
favor curbing the private monopoly
but will want the corporations to have
their rights. "
Mayor Friday said that at the present
ent tlmo there seems to bo no opposl
tlou to Bryan and that ho believes no
body can beat him excepting Roosevelt
velt himself.
H. W. Winter believes that Mr. Bry
an Is stronger today with the Amerl
can people than he has ever been In
his life before , arid that ho will have
no opposition for the democratic nom
Inatlon.

day.

South Dakota
The Land of Plenty
Rich soil , a mild climate , and abundance of
water have made South Dakota one of the
be4 agricultural states in the Union.
The soil of Lyman County is unusually rich.
It is a black loam with a yellow clay subsoil.
The extension through Lymau County
recently built by the
Chicago , Milwaukee ® , Si. Pa\il
Railway
has opened up a part of that state hitherto
sparsely settled. Land is now selling at the
rate of from $8 to $15 an acre , and it is
altogether probable that valuations will
increase 100 to 200 per cent within a year.
South Dakota offers great opportunities for
the small investor.
