The loss caused in this state by last weeks storm is something astounding. Not within the recollection of t lie earliest settlers lias such October weather been experienced. For five days laat week snow came down almost unceasingly. At tbe town of ( hoteau, county seatof Teton county, it w as fi om ten to twelve feet deep in drifts, and at least three feet on the level. The wind blew a gale nearly all the time, but fortunately there was not a great fall in the temperature; if there had been a clean sweep would have lieen made of the live stock of a vast aeetion of country. Numerous band of sheep were completely snowed under, and the cattle on the ranges drifted badly. Z. T. Burton, president of the Burton Land company and one of the prominent stockmen of Teton county, who has arrived here from the blizzard-swep- t district, says that the bodies of have already been eight sheep-heele- r fsnfidtn htv rotimy. and fifteen other who are missing have been given up as lost. He says loss of life will exceed twenty persona in Teton county. As nearly as now can be estimated, 20.000 sheep perished in the storm in Teton county, and about 10.000 in Cboteau couny.
