When brought before the municipal

inspire the Mormon mind with the

Tho Black HILLS Country.

Oak ota has made unparalleled strides
during the past ten years. 1t seems
almost incredible that in half that time
its population has trebied, and its pre-
gress and prosperity have been CORES
pondingly great. But with all its growth
and attractions for enterprising settlers
and broad-guage business men, it APP
pears ike the dream of an enthusiast
that in a few weeks that remote portion
Of our leading territory known rs the
Black Hills-the Sioux Pail-Sappa-is
to have a railroad of its own, connecting
it with the rest OF the world. There il,
however, no doubt of 1t, and this month
the ranchmen of the Cheyenne will
hear the steam engine roaring up the
valley, and the iron trail will traverse
the Race Course" as the Red valley is
called which girdics the Hills.
1t is scarcely more than eleven years
since the brilliant reconnaissance of the
dashing but Inflated Custer was made
into what was then practically an I'M
known land. The gold discoveries then
made were given to the country by The
Inter Ocean, which was represented in
the Custer expedition of 1874. These
statements with reference to the wealth
of the Black Hills We're diScredited by a
great majority of the press, which Of
course knew nothing about it except
the art of robbing an enterprising rival
of w~ell-earned glory. The frontier was
fired BY these reports. Sioux City took
the lead in outfitting a party of adven-
turous spirits, who were the first pio-
neers and conveyed the first white
woman who ever entered the Black
Hills. The Gordon train spent Christ
mas, 1874, in camp on French creek,
near where Custer City now stands.
But the Hills district was vet Indian
ground, and these ice breakers were re-.
moved by Captain John Mix to Fort
Laramie. The stories related by Cor.
don, Russell, Bishop, Long and Talent
simply served to spread the news of
placer discoveries. Miners from Cali
fornia and prosnectors from the Gunni-
o gulches stampeded to the new die
gings. And the voice of the pilgrim
and tenderfoot was heard in the land.
The government sent out another ex-
pedilion. This left Fort Laramie for
the Hills in May, 1875, under Professor
Jenney and the lamented NJ. Newton,
escorted by a large military command
under Colonel Richard Irving Dodge,
an excellent soldier, and as a bright
writer resembling his kinsman, the dis
tinguished Washington Irving. That
