All Credit to Deadwcod..

Il
named city.
All Credit TO Deadwood.
OF oil towns, big or little, in the terri
tory Of Dakota Deadwood heads the list
| in push, vim, go-ahead-itiyeness, and
general all around enterprise. The citi-
gems Of Deadwood are not content to
wait for outsiders to visit them to find
ont what they have ii sight, but on the
contrary, every man il that enterprising
burg forms himself into IN Advertising
bureau for the purpose OF disseminating
knowledge and useful information con-
corning the wonderful resources OF his
town throughout this broad land mo
pent up Utica confines their powers o.
advertising; lot only the continent but
the earth is theirs. Without a doubt,
Deadwood is the best advertised city IN
the northwest today, and before long will
be the best in the Union. A large num-
Der of citizens have contributed TO this
result, but to none is more credit due
than ]. Z. P. Miller, the ssroyal rustler''
of them all. Mr.. Miller has formed a
syndicate, with eastern capital invested,
that has done, and is continuing to do,
a vast amount Of good for the city.
This syndicate has purchased large
amount Of city property, including sew
eral business blocks, etc, and has already
improved it immensely. The syndicate
/ block at the corner of Main and Lee
streets, is fair example Of what they
are doing. This is large brick build
ing on the ground floor Of which will be
located a National bank, stores, etc, and
the upper portion will contain suites Of
rooms for offices.
This same syndicate are at present en-
gagged in constructing system of mar
row gagged railways TO connect the sew
eral outlying towns and camps Of the
Northern Hills with Deadwood. This is
not a paper affair, but an actual, bona
fide dirt, iron and steel line, the con-
struction of which, is, at the present
writing, progressing as rapidly as money
and time will allow. This system of
roads will be OF inestimable benefit to
the entire Hills and cannot help but at
tract the attention and capital of eastern
investors to the immense resources sur
rounding us on every hand.
Another great enterprise is the re-
duction works, at present under con
struction, erected for the purpose Of re-
ducing at a nominal cost the low grade
ores with which the entire Northern
Hills is underlaid. Vast amounts Of this
ore are in sight throughout this entire
country and the reduction works will
solve problem that for years mining
experts have been studying, endeavoring
to reach a satisfactory conclusion.
When the works once open for business
boom will be experienced alongside of
which 1876 will seem like hard times.
The syndicate mentioned above have
also interested themselves in this enter
prise and the public may rest assured
that in the near future this great institu-
ton will be turning out to the world
carload upon carload of the precious bull
lion.
All credit to the men who are backing
these various enterprises. All credit to
Deadwood whose best efforts are being
put forth to thoroughly advertise the
glowing possibilities of our country, and
interest outside capital in us. Whatever
works to the interest Of Deadwood- or
any other Hills town rebounds to the
glory of Sturgis as we'll. May Dead
woods shadow never grow less.
The Pioneer Press, in its territorial
issue Of Saturday last, seems to have
beaten into the head Of it's Dakota editor
that South Dakota has some rights
which even it is bound to respect, and as
a consequence it has nothing to say re-
garding the situation in this section of
the territory. It is change for the
better, and if nothing favorable to us
can be said, it is to be hoped the col
