Teachers Compensation.

Mrs. ]. NJ. Dennis, in an article in the
Hot Springs Star, Of the 9th, justly
cenSnres the school board of Hot
Springs school township for fixing the
compensation Of the teacher in their
public school at the low rate Of $40 per
month. claiming that in this country a
competent teacher cannot be procured
upon such terms, and expresses the
belief that in other places in the Hills a
higher estimate is placed upon such
services. We are inclined to the opin-
ion, taking into consideration the cost
of living in this country, and the char
acter ofthe services rendered, which re-
quires years of preparation for its proper
performance, that the rate named is not
commensurate with the value of the
services rendered, and that il is much
less than that which obtains in other
places. In this place, where the salary
of teachers has been to seme extent
reduced, much higher rate is main
tained, and we do not hesitate to say
that higher rate than is offered by the
board above referred to, prevails in
every town in the Hills.

McConn and Foran have attained a
depth Of nearly 80 feet on the Tin King
lode. The width of the vein has no,
yet been determined, having encounter.
ed but one wall, but from surface indi
cations, the lode is believed to be OF
considerable magnitude, and the ore
having steadily improved from the top
down, is now fully equal in quality to
any We have yet seen. We very much
regret the fact of the owners being com.
PEELED for the present to abandon further
work upon this property, in consequence
of other locations requiring their atten.
ton in the matter of assessment work
as we do not hesitate to say, that had
the work of development been contin-
ued until depth of one hundred feet
had been reached, and .he width of the
vein at that depth been determined
that many thousands of dollars would
have been added 10 the market value O!
this promising lode.

Sulphur Spring.

A sulphur spring has been found by
Mr. Perry, the Green house man of
Deadwood, which fairly rivals the Blue
Lick Springs of Kentucky. This spring,
which is destined to become famous, is
located on City Creek, near Deadwood,
the waters of which have been thor
oughly tested and iound to contain no
organic matter Of any description what
ever. An interest in this valuable
spring has been recently purchased by
II. w. Carter, who proposes to run the
water in pipes to Deadwood, where il
will be much used for drinking pur,
poses, and the surplus probably bottled
for sale in Rapid, in case the latter
place should not conclude to put in a
pipe line for the supply of that enter.

The weather Of this place, for a mum.
ber of days, has never been surpassed
in any country upon the habitable
globe, and yet it is but average Septem-
Der weather in this section, We have
never seen our September weather
equalled anywhere. The weather which
prevails here during this beautiful
month seems to possess a certain in
defnable quality which adds an addi
tional charm to life, rendering the
scriptural INDUCTION, "love thy neighbor
as thyself," very easy matter indeed.
Under its benign influences the hearts
of number of our neighbors have been
regenerated to the extent of renewing
their subscriptions to the CHRONICLE
Men stop and shake hands who at other
times would pass each other without a
nod of recognition. Women are seen
in pleasant converse with their neigh
bors at short range, who month ago
were criticizing each others bonnets.
| The postmaster, who three weeks ago
would kick when asked to address a
letter for you, will now walk four blocks
to accommodate you with the change
for trade dollar. The crossest baby in
town was discovered in the act Of smil
ing while asleep in its mothers arms in
one Of the churches in this city on Sun
day morning. Even the dogs reassure
YOU Of their ardent affection by the cold
contact Of their nasal organ "as you halt
by them" and the festive fly affords
ample proof of increased friendship by
closer and more persistent attention.
There is absolutely no way to account
for the wonderful effects produced by
our September weather. 1t is subject
which should be investigated, and we
submit it to the sage of the Rapid City
Republican for satisfactory solution.

Apportionment of Delegates.

The apportionment of delegates made
by the Republican Central Committee
on Tuesday in this place, which is given
elsewhere in this issue, will be accepted
as a very fair one, and was evidently
based upon the present population OF
the different precincts, as near as could
be approximated, which certainly in
dicates spirit of fairness, in marked
contrast with the action of a former
meeting at Buffalo Gap, where this
precinct was tabooed TO an extent be-
yond possible tolerance.

passive; but in view of this place hav-

that this place was SO chris.ened at its

Custer City and that the name of Gus

by many on account of its brevity. If
we thought that the writer questioned
the propriety of afiixing the word City
to the name Of our town, we would hurl
exclamation points at him with such
force as to cause him to fall upon his
knees and pray for p period Iut feeling
assured that he will admit Custer City

inapplicable, we will for the present

that this place is not a we'll developed

factories, and opium joints that we have

stated upon authority which We accept
as lncontrovertible, that the ludicrous
apportionment was strictly based upon
