Pioneer: A Chinaman tried to lick
n Mclean man yesterday-but why
p~rolong the tale? There was the worst
used-up specimen of broken China scat
tered about the sidewalk, in just about
two minutes, that has been seen in
Deadwood for many n day. In fact, he
looked rs though he had been up to
| Lead having some fun with the boys.
The Pioneer wisely pins its faith to

1t puts in some sturdy blows for the
same while answering the puny argu-
ments of the deniZens of Sidney. The
| Pioneer thus d~iscourses editorially;
Sidney people are in a sea of trouble.
The railroad project to the westward of
them-the probable speedy building of
| the Cheyenne & Black Hills roads
producing CONSERVATION and detection
among Sidney business men. They
talk of moving, leaving, migrating to
some more promising locality. One of
the papers there attempts to check the
scare and the prevalent disposition to
get out, by prophesying that no railroad
will be built by the Union Pacific to
the Black Hills from Cheyenne in less
than three years. That sort of talk
may help to mitigate the gloomy future
| of Sidney, but as a matter of tact it is
worthless. Sidney will be compelled
to accept the situation as it is and as it
will be. The Cheyenne u Black Hills
road will be built its whole length in
less than two years-one hundred miles
| of it before the close of October, 1880.
There is no want of the men, the mus
Gle and the money to do it.
