The Deadwood Times very properly
protests against the abandonment OF
Fort Meade, at present the only military
post in the neighborhood of Black Hills
settlements. 1t would seem to be very
impolitic act on the part of the govern.
ment at this time to remove that post,
which furnishes, if not protection at
least fair guaranty of punishment to
any Indian wrong doers in western Da-
kota, and in all probability has prevent
ed hostile incursions into the farming
sections of the foothills that would have
cost many lives and ten fold more money
than has been expended to build and
maintain the fort. The pioneers of that
section are entitled to this protection
and it would be decided wrong to now
withdraw it. Ii there is no necessity for
Fort Meade where it now stands then We
fail to see the necessity for maintaining
any military posts whatever on the west
ern frontier. The authorities should
consider the vast interests centered
in that section which might be seriously
embarrassed by the abandonment of this
important post.

As MEEK AS xosRs

Watertown Courier: 1t is interesting
to note what effect the capital locating
business has on the minds of many Da.
kotaians. A large percentage Of the
public breath is held in suspenpe and
many mans tongue is unwillingly
stilled, for no one knows where lightning
will strike. Scores ofpersons who would
otherwise denounce the scheme in the
most unmeasured terms, will be as meek
as Moses if the favored locality should
be near their landed interests, while
many who now favor it half-heartedly
because of q possibility of succes., will
be madder than wet hen if their pros.
poets are blasted. Human nature il
pretty much the same out west Is it ID
in the east, and it makes big difference
whose OK is gored, whether there is any
Jobbery in it or not. As Wa.ertown is
out of the ring her people care very little
who gets the persimmons: while other
towns are living on wind pudding We
will skim off the cream of trade and
anchor the Queen city on . solid founda.
ton.

Deadwood and the various other towns
along Whitewood and Deadwood creeks
suffered severely from food last Sat
urday. Rain and melting snow swelled
the creeks SO rapidly that the occupants
of buildings along their banks were un-

water carried much of it away. The to-

Deadwood has many misfortunes, but it
