John p. Salisbury was one OF those

qualities. 1t can be said of him as is
barely said of men, that he had not

The r.. r. Situation.

The railroad situation remains un-
changed, as up to this juncture no
further indications of the early in
anguration Of building operations have
materialized. The two B K NJ. survey
ing parties, engaged for the past two
months upoE the line from the Chey-
enne river to Lead City via Custer and
Hill City, are still in the field in this
vicinity, which, however, gives no defn
ite clue as to the time when the COM
pany shall commence the building OF
the road. The fact Of the persistent
efforts Of the company to determine a
route through this place would indicate
settled intention on their part to make
this city point on the line, but the
precise time when this place shall be-
come connected with the outside world
by rail, remains as vague and uncertain
as II was two months ago. Basing our
opinion, however, upon the reasonable
proposition Of this line being built next
year, We cannot escape the conclusion
that much Of the rock work will be
done during the present winter, as
otherwise it would be impossible to
complete the line next year. If suci
rock work should be carried on during
this winter, Custer, by reason Of her
location, would be largely benefited IN
'he matter of furnishing supplies for
me large force employed in this vincini-
ty, and her future progress greatly ac-
celebrated. by reason Of her assured
railroad prospects. While it may not
be definitely known just when our
hopes in this direction may be realized,
there are good and substantial reasons
for the belief that the time is not dis
tant when Custer will become promi.
nent point upon the most important
proposed line OF railroad in the entire
prospective Black Hills system. The
outlook, while it may not be as promis-
ing with reference b. the early inaugura-
ton of building operations as We might
desire, Is nevertheless encouraging. and
offers sufficient reasons upon which to
base strong hope Of pending prosperi-
ty for the future Tin City Of the Hills
