South Dakota
became a State in 1889. It has a land area of upwards of 78,000
square miles. Its extreme breadth is 380 miles and length 245
miles. The State has a diversified surface, there being portions
well adapted to wheat and corn growing, others for grazing, and
still others for timber. It is also rich in mineral wealth,
principally gold, silver, copper, iron, etc. Its population is
increasing rapidly and at the last census reached 328,808.
Since the issuance of our preceding
edition there has been the usual number of newspaper changes in
this and other States mentioned in this work. The several
industries throughout the State have largely increased, and in
every branch and direction show unusual prosperity.
We give a brief description in the
following pages of the several counties, with a tabulated list
of the newspapers published in each.
