poses cannot be utilized, and all the eA-
penses of the public school system have
to be met by tax levies. This item of
expense has been particularly hard
upon some sections of Dakota, and has
been sufficiently severe upon the more
favored portions. That Dakota has
bravely and unflinchingly borne this
burden is immensely to her credit. In
spite of the disadvantages under which
she labors, she has considered good
schooling SO paramount a feature i'm
American communities that she has
taxed herself heavily to provide for the
higher education necessary to q popula-
ton but little short Of thrae-quarters Of
a million. There have been instituted
and maintained high schools, special
colleges and universities in addition to
the regular system Of public schools.
This question Of the admission Of the
northwest territories is Of itself sufici
ent reason for a special session, and
should 1t be decided to call one for that
purpose no community will more hearth
ly CO congratulate Dakota than the citizens
of Omaha. When Dakota becomes a
state she will have at her disposal for
school purposes lands whose value ex-
ceeds $3.50 900. The relief to tax
payers will therefore be very great

The Prerident's Message.

President Cleveland's last annual
message was presented to congress on
the 3rd inst. 1t is a very lengthy docu-
ment, containing eighteen thousand
words, and is considered much superior
10 any Of his previous efforts. He re-
views the first century Of the nations
existence, and dwells upon the condi-
ton Of the laboring classes, which he
affirms could be improved in many
ways, chief among which is a just and
sensible revision of the tariff, which he
especially recommends. He urges the
passage Of laws restricting the power Of
trusts; refers with much qualification
to the peaceful relations existing with
foreign powers. and criticises the con-
duct Of Minister West for attempted
interference with political affairs. The
message treats extensively of routine
matter, in which condensations Of re.
ports of the various departments are
presented. The full text Of the message
will appear in the CHRONICLE next week.

MANAGEMENT.

Almost every mining camp Of the
country bears evidence Of the fact that
the character of the management is of
greater Importance than the character
and value Of the ore. The history of
mining bears almost on every page
record of properties that have been
abandoned by disappointed and dis
couraged operators, only to be proved
valuable and profitable in the hands of
others. Thus it is beginning to be un-
derstood that the merit and desirability
ola mine or locality can not be Justly
determined without a knowledge Of the
methods employed and the ability Of
those responsible for the results. For
some reason the opinion too generally
prevails that mining is different from
other lines of business, and that chance
aud uncertainty are everywhere and al
ways prominent influences, SO that a
well considered and economical plan of
development, or a careful consideration
Of the relation between cost and profit
is unnecessary. Hence large sums Of
money have been carelessly expended
under the belief that in the case where
s much was uncertain, definite results
could not be predicted. This same ele-
ment of uncertainty regarding the future
and the result Of proper investment is
an important factor Of all business, and
in fact of everything that is related to
human effort and endeavor but the
record Of experience proves that in the
midst of uncertainty the best returns
have ever followed along the line Of
careful consideration, conservate and
economical management. The absence
of the speculative spirit has done much
within the past few years to make these
facts more apparent and to show the adj
vantage of their methods more gener.

The discussion of the statehood ques-
ton seems paramount at present, to the
exclusion of most every other topic and
the sooner the question is focused from
its present chaotic state, the better for
Dakota and her interests. There seems

tween the north and the south to enter
as two states, and the desire to do SO

First Pig TIN.

American tin has been received by Hib-

ut may be worth while to contradict
this statement which is being circulated
by a large number Of our exchanges.
The first pigs of American tin--so far at
least as our knowledge extends-were
produced in 1886, from ore found ia
Pennington and Custer counties. Da-
kota. One of these pigs weighed l20
pounds, and the other 80 pounds. Both
were exhibited at the office of the Age
Of Steel in lSS6."-Age of Steel.
