The Fires Of 1882.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE New
York Bulletins fire record tor
1882 meution that 1905 hres oc
Cured in which the loss was,
$4,000 aud upward. There
were 1909 fires whose destruc.
tiveness ranged between $4,000
and S50,00U each: 244 between
$4,000 aud 100000: 10l be-
tween 100000 and 100000;
thitsy-iive between s2oo,ooe and
$500, 900, aud sixteen where the
loss was between $50o,000 aud
s2.OO0,0O0. By I52 fires, prop
erty of the estimated total value
of S34,250, 900 was wiped out.
The su,allertires the loss is placed
At $50, ,0O0, 900, making the total
destruction IN the United States
and Canada, S00,25O.OOO. The
Bulletin adds: "No wonder the
year 1882 was a hard one for the
insurance companies and for the
uuburned policy holders, who
might have thei: insurance
cheaper if others carelessness
and recklessness had not made
insurance 80 costly to all con-
cerued. Perhaps, but we have
no doubt-the time may come
when our people will discover
Nv ithout having 1t burned into
tn emf that low rates of insur-
rnce are only consistent with
careful construction OF buildings
and reasonable safe guards aud
precautions against fire.

Chicago. They pad the For
sythes S1,000,000 IN cash aud
notes, $Z5U,000 of the former.
Now Forsythe is suing for the
balance, and the purchasers are
threatening to bring a counter
suit for the recovery OF the first
payment, alleging fraud and
misrepresentation. SO TAR the
harbor has not cut very big fig

aud thar may be the reason that
the second payment Of the pur-
chase money was not made. -

There seems TO he u general
clamor by the press aud people
ot the territory for the repeal or
amendment OF the present cx-
enption laws, which allow an
unreasonable amount of per-
xonai property exempt from ex-
ecution. The legislature now in
session should not adjourn with
out taking some action IN the
matter. A law which is pointed
out by an able senator as M out
rage, aud held up as an argu-
ment against Dako,a's admission
ne Il statc, should not longer be
allowed TO remain on the statute
books. 1t is a law not only un-
just to the creditor but a posi-
tive injury to every honest debt
or. Business men whose stand
ing in any other territory or
state would be considered good
are asked in Dakota to give
mortgages upon their property be
fore they can obtain one dollar OF
credit. Capitalists and business
men in tie east do net care to
transact business under such cir
cumstauces, and every c"mmer-
cad interest cutters in conse-
ouence The farmer whose crop
is maturing aud who in q short
time would be abundantly able
aud willing to ray oft oil obii-
cations, is reused credit for the
ordinary necessities Of life, sim
ply because our odious exemp-
ton laws give him the right To-
repudiate the debt if he chooses.
Honest men suffer and rosues
only are benefited. Let the law
be amended So that homestead

not To exceed $500 in personal
property he exempt from execu-
tion, and then it can no longer
be said OF Dakota that she 70 an

Rapid City Journal: 1t has
been repeteadly stated, aud is
pretty generally believed that
the Northwestern road, the west
ern TERMINUS of which is at
Pierre, on the east bank of the
Missouri river, aud the Sioux
City & Pacific, which now rests
on the north side of the Mo
brara river, are practically y
under control ct one aud the
same company. This report has
given rise to another to tao es-
feet that while the extension OF
the latter named road would be
continued toward the Black
Hills in the spring, the former
would reiuain IN statu quo.
Where it is true that the two
roads are under control OF one
railroad company, it would be
= reasonable suppo.ltion that
were the trade OF the Black Hills
the only object to be secured by
extension, both would not AT
once be extended, as ono would

is watching that the other may

Salt springs are situated about eight

Marble of beautiful purple color is
found zeal Rapid City and Custer, and

CITY,

The pioneer town Of the Hills is situst-
ed in the southern portion about twelve
or fifteen miles from the foothills and
its natural advantages are acknowledged
by all as excelling I'll others either in
the mining or agricultural districts.
Located i'm Il valley ten or twelve miles
long by one mile in width, it is easily
accessible to railroads either from the
| east, south or west. and is the only town
in the Hills that could be tapped by n
| road running on an east anG west line,
from either Pierre or Chamberlain. To
tap any other town. Il road, having as its
! objective nnint the Yellowstone park or
the Pacific coast. would have to make a
dctonr from 100 to eco miles. Already
surveys have been run by variors roads
having this point in view. Thus situat-
ed it draws to its support the business
Of The mining districts of the Southern
Hills and also that of the farming and
stork raising interests, the latter ex-
tending for sixty miles to the south and
west. 1t is also the centre Of the richest
| within A radius of three miles no less
than a half dozen producing mines the
annual yield Of which is upward Of
2O.C0O pounds of m~ercllantable mica to
the mine. On the north, and from two
to ten miles from town are the bonanza
gold mines of the Southern Hills includ-
ing the Grand Junction, Old Bill, Hart
ford, Atlantic, Salmon, It. Elmo, Pcnob.
scot, Gold Star and others, a majority Of
which have mills, hoisting works, etc,
now i'm operation. On the south for ten
or twelve miles are to be found rich cop
per and silver mines and on the west
the coal fields, gypsum beds, salt and oil
springs, while fertile farming lands are
sandwiched in between all. AS an illu-
s~tration Of the money to be made on
ever a small piece Of farming land in
he valleys surrounding Custer We will
state that j. n. Wright on seventeen
acres, located two miles west Of town,
cleared 81 800 in one summer. On the
south, within six or eight hours ride,
are the famous Hot Springs, whose cur
ative powers are already attracting the
attention of the outside world, and
which are equal to those Of Arkansas.
The town is the county seat Of Custer
county, which hasa a area of3,000 square
miles, two-thirds Of which is agricultural
and grazing lands and the other third
mineral, the latter occupying the north.
ern portion Of the county are covered
with q heavy growth of Norway pine
The town has a $4,000 court house, two
fine Observation-Disclosures, belonging to tho
Methodist and Congregational societies
and will Dol have a large school build
ing. Business is increasing, improve
ments are being made daily and il il
bound 10 be the metropolis ofthe South,
crn Hills. All those Of our eastern
readers who think Of coming to Dakots
to locate and invest i'm either mercantile
mining, agricultural or stock -~raisin,
pursuits can do no better than to CAM
in Custer county or city.
