On Saturday last a gentleman from
the east, stranger in thu city, culled on
on the ADVERTISER and in the course OF
q long conversation said: II am surpris-
ed; agreeably SO. I had been told Stur-
gis was dead town; nothing going on
Consequently I expected to see nothing
more than sort of an annex to Fort
Meade. But in my trip through the
Hills have failed to see town with SO
many improvements under way and SO
much life and hustle as your own city
of Sturgis. There are buildings going
up all around the town. There is big
building going up at the upper end of
your main street the Francis block, cor
ner Main end Second streets); right by
it gang of men are at work sinking a
large cistern, for the city, Cor fire pun
poses. Down by your bank another one
is being dug, and down below the Com
mercial hotel still another is in course of
construction. Then again, I noticed a
new glass front being put in large
building on Main street, to fit it for a
store. Nearly q dozen tenen,ents and
residences are building on your side
streets, and it looks to mo as though all
the carpenters in town must be busy.
In walking down Main street this morn
ing / could hardly get along the side
walk, two merchants having it almost
blocked with freight just received I'll
wager there was carload of dry goods
and boots and shoes on tho walk-whieh
they were carrying inside as fast as pos
sible. Your streets are lined with teams,
and merchants and statesmen were busy.
Some stores, in fact, were crowded.
understand the town has just ordered a
steam fire-engine and complete hose out
fit, paid for by individual subscriptions
OF your business men. That's right, it
will do your town moro good than any
other one thing. have been told that
your postofice will soon be made a
presidential Office, owing to the great in
crease in its receipts. That in itself is a
pretty good indication of what Sturgis
is doing. You have board OF trade
an institution capable Of great good; a
live set Of business men, and best of all,
a grand location. The people need never
be afraid of being injured by any other
town in the Hills. You have the advan-
tage of position, age and stability. You
were town before the railroad got into
The country; you are town now that it
has gone by you, and you will be a
larger town the farther the road gets
away from you. You have your own
section of country to supply and sjudg-
ing from appearances you always will
have it. Sturgis is all right, and if 7
we're thinking of coming to the Black
Hills to live, I should most assuredly
have to see something better than have
seen, to make me locate in any town other
han your own town Of Sturgis."
1t is needless to say that this gentle
nan carries. very level head on his
shoulders.

and the farmers throughout the Hills
can safely rely on the statement that If

beeta can be grown in quantities, sugar
factory and refinery WIFI be established
