Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from South Dakota: Resources People Statehood, the Gleanings of a Journey Through the Territory We were reading with keen interest speeches and narratives that concerned Dakota. The work or the play of Congress seemed a thing of mockery and humiliation. Then it occurred to us that we turn us Dakota-ward and spy out the land. We would measure for ourselves the worth and promise of the Territory. We would set the words of friends over against the words of foes, and then pronounce upon them by the aid of such knowledge as we could glean through personal investigation. The heralded prosperity of Dakota interested us. The throwing open to settlers a share of the Sioux Reservation interested us. The earnest, persistent struggle for Statehood interested us. So we hastened to the Dakota land. We found Dakota. It is emphatically a "findable" country. The immensity of its landscape appalled us. The extreme north insists that four hundred and thirty miles shall mark the distance from the extreme south. The east is separated from the west by three hundred and eighty-five miles. The area of Dakota is one hundred and fifty thousand nine hundred and thirty-two square miles, or ninety-six million five hundred and ninety-six thousand four hundred and eighty acres.
