The other route is ny way of ReePs
ranch, down Horse Creek to near its
mouth, crossing the North Platte
River at Nick Janise's ranch, about
thirty miles east of Fort Laramie,
and theme in n nOrtheasterly direc-
ton, over "A good road, to Red Cloud
Agency. This route is also travelled
by a stage line, which carries the
mail and passengers from Cheyenne
to Red Cloud and Spotted Tail
Agencies, owned by Hoshier and
Cinnamnnd, and also by freight
trains, ranchmen and settlers. This
route is settled up as far as the Platte
River, and all OF the Indian goods
for these agencies, and most of the
military supplies for the two mill
tary posts ut the agencies, Camps
Robinson and Sheridan, are trans
ported Over it. The fare to Red
Cloud is fifteen dollars, and the dis
lance from there to the Black Hills
Is about fifty miles. The following
table of distances by this route is also
correct:

THE BLACK HILLS

lie between the 43rd aud 10Th degrees
OF latitude, aud the lU3rd and lOjth
parallels of longitude, and OCCUPY an
area of about u hundred miles in
length, nOrtheTly and suutherly, aud
about sixty miles in breadth. Their
form Is eilipticiI, and according to
Lieut.. "arren'S rpurl OF them, "thu
major axis trends about 20 west of
Rnrth." The has" OF these hills Is
about 200 to 5000 feet above the SEA
level, and the highest peaks do not
exceed 1000 feet. The eastern bound
airy line of Wyoming. 10Th parallel
of longitude, runs about midway
through the hills. The whole range
of the hill, lies in the forks OF the
Big Cheyenne hiVer, watch j. the
1uoSt important strr8m in that re-
Giou. rhc north fork is called Belle
t"urche--iSLtEiriy- yards wide, and
VasSeS arnulG the northern end of
the range in q SpIuicircle, receiving
the waters from the greater part of
the hills, Which flow into it from "A
great number of smIll streams. 1t
takes lis rise far TO the westward of
this range, @ Il tO the sources of the
Little Powder River, in what is
known IA the "divide between the
waters of the Yellowstone and those
of the Missouri. The South Fork of
the Cheyenne River is about one
hundred feet wide, takes its rise in
the same 'divide," flows around the
southern base of the hills, and also
receives numerous tributaries which
have their source in them. These
two streams unite about forty miles
east of the Black Hills, forming the
If~ [tn-n 1
Shyeuue) River, which pnurs itself
into the Missouri some sixty miles
above Fort Pierre. From either
Fort Sully or Fort Pierre, in n due
west direction to the Wyoming line,
which runs through the centre of the
hills nearly, is a distance of 220
miles, on an air line. Formerly there
was a road from Fort Pierre to Fort
Laramie, over which military and
traders stores were freighted, and
the distance fixed at three hundred
and twenty-five miles. The road
necessarily passed over the bad lands
considerable of the distance. ANY
route followed from the Upper Mis-
souri, VIII encounter them. In the
summer the neat is intense in the
country between the Upper Missouri
and the Black Hills, the grass is not
good for stock, and the water is
strongly alkaline. For these facts
we are indebted TO persons who have
frequently psssed over the route dur
Ing the past twenty-five years, to
officers of the army, and to the Off
cial reports of Lieut.. &. X. Warren
and Brevet Brig. Gen. w. F. Ray
nolds, of the Typographical Engin-
GERS of the United States Army.

HOW To REACH THE BLACK HILLS.
Without decryiug any of the pro-
posed routes from points on the
Upper Missouri River, we assert that
the route from Cheyenne northward
is the safest, sreediest, cheapest and
best, 10 reach the Black Hills.
Cheyenne is at the junction of the
two competing rnilrnads from the
G;tst-the Union Pacific and Kansas
Pacific. 1t will be two days rail-
road travel to Cheyenne from Chicago
or st. Louis The following table
Will show the distance and present
rate offare from these two points to
Cheyenne:

We are credibly informed 10y the
representatives OF these two railroad
companies, that special rates will .be
given from Chicago and from St.
Louis to Cheyenne, to Black Hill
parties, which will be at least one
third less than the above rates.
FROM CHEYENNE To THE BLACK
HILLS.
There are twn routes that may be
taken to the hills from here. The
me by way of Fort Laramie, Raw
Hide Buttes, Old Woman's Fork
and Beaver Creek is 1872 miles. This
route passes through n settled conn
try for a hundred miles or so. Good
ranches will be found every few
miles as far as Fort Laramie. There
is now IA stage line on it owned by
j. &. Abney, that carries the United
States mail to and from the Fort,
and also passengers ut ten dollars n
piece. This line will be extended to
the Black Hills right. away, if the
government permits it to be done.
The road is an unusually good one,
and is constantly Travelled by the
military, by freighters, by ranch
men, settlers and others. The fol.
lowing table of distances over this
route is correct:
