what others Think Of us.

The following head lines appeared in
the st. Paul Globe Of May IS, over an
article descriptive Of sturgis and vicin-
ity: "A Land Of Fertility; Six Thou
sand Farms in One County inviting New
Settlers; Among the Most Choice and
Productive in the Black Hills; Sturgis

Lead City and Deadwood.

Under the above caption the Rapid
City Journal gives the citizens of the
above mentioned cities some good ad-
vice that should be accepted and profted
by. The Journal speaks the truth, and
is honestly laboring for the welfare Of
the upper camps in the matter Of the
reduction works, knowing that if they
are erected they most assuredly will
benefit greatly the entire Hills. An
eternal quietus should be put upon the
fight now on, and all citizens having the
good of the country at heart should
make it point to see that the warfare is
brought to close, and that right
qaickly. The Journal says:
With regret on the part of all who de-
sire the good of the up-country towns,
and the entire Black Hills country, it
will be noticed that all does not seem to
be going ON as smoothly as could be de-
sired in the Deadwood reduction works
scheme. So far as can be learned from
the newspaper accounts it seems that
several mining companies which had
subscribed to the stock have withdrawn
their subscriptions. The Belt Herald
declares that this action is caused partly
by failure OF such companies to secure
representation in the directory and
partly because it is discovered that SO
far as the Deadwood managers of the
scheme are concerned they are working
only to boom Deadwood real estate, and
that the recent sales of property report
ed there are the direct result Of such
boom. The Herald further AYERS that a
stronger organization will be formed and
works erected. It may be possible that
the Herald knows something OF the
workings of the scheme that is not APP
parent on the surface. Unless it does,
however, it should be careful about
making such charges. The reduction
works, if erected and operated according
to the original plan, will be of vast i'm
portance not only to Deadwood, but also
to Lead City, where many Of the owners
of Bald Mountain and Ruby Basin prop
erty have their homes. That Deadwood
should have something of real estate
boom as first result of the frightened
prospect is not strange, and this might
well occur without being the sole end
and aim of the Deadwood men enlisted
in the enterprise. At the same time it
must strike the average reader as some
what stranoe that the gentlemen asso-
ciated in the reduction works scheme
should take the present occasion, when
they assert that Deadwood is only enter
ing upon her era of prosperity, to dis
pose Of their business property. 1t is to
be hoped that the quarrel or disagree
ment may not reach such proportions as
to materially interfere with the work of
establishing the reduction works. That
is the main point

An Indian Legislature.

Considerable interest is being mani
tested in the reservation bill recently
signed by the president, by which SO
many thousands of acres of land are sup
posed to have been thrown open for set
Element. But it must be borne in mind
that before such reservation will be sub
ject to settlement by the whites, the sig
natures of three -fourths of the male In
dams of the entire reservation must be
secured, acknowledging their willing
ness that the bill become law. The
first of the week Charger" one of the
prominent Indians of the Sioux nation,
was at Forest City, and through the
courtesy of A. G. Smith, school teacher
just across the river from this place, who
acted as interpreter, we were enabled to
learn from Charger several facts which
no doubt will be news to many of our
readers. He tells us that the Sioux
tribe as whole is now represented by a
council which is elected each year by a
vote of the Indians, he, Charger, being
one of the council recently elected. This
is a representative body, the different
tribes agreeing to any measure which is
satisfactory to the council. Upon this
body, therefore, the fate of the rcserva-
tion bill hinges, and according to
Charger everything is favorable to its
adoption. The tribes represented by
this council which is soon to meet at
Cheyenne agency are: Minconwopi,
Sansarc, Blackfeet and Two Kettle; and
the different agencies represented are:
Standing Rock, Rosebud, Pine Ridge,
Grow Creek and Lower Brule. Forest

A Grand idea.

Regardless of politics, the following
idea advanced by the Pioneer Press in
comments on the platform of the James
town convention, strikes close at home
and must be believed and appreciated by
all. The Pioneer Press states:
"As far as consistent with protection
to American labor and American indus
tries the jamestown platform wants the
tariff confined to the luxuries OF life.
For instance, Dakotaians want sugar and
lumber put on the free list. They want
the forests protected, and not the saw
mills. They are willing that the forests
of Canada should contribute to our mar
ket. If cheaper lumber is the result,
well and good IF not materially cheap
or the forests Of the northwest, that hold
as reservoirs our moisture, will be pre-
served for longer time. The preserva-
tion OF the forests ON the south line of
the great chain OF lakes is more impor-
tant economic question than the protec-
tion OF the lumbermen. Dakota has an
interest in that question deeper than any
discussion goes. It is only cheaper
lumber we aim at, but il cheaper lumber
saves our pineries we viii find that our
enlightened selfshness has been far
reaching blessing In disguise. Dakota
has no forests, but the protection Of the
forests in her latitude to the east Is d
matter Of greater importance to her than
to the states Immediately concerned.n

was pronounced superior, and the rail

A New Way to Look at It.

1t is true, as the jamestown platform
says, that the republicans of Dakota be-
lieve in reasonable protection for

it, that they do not believe in rocking
